Peng had an erratic smile on her face, "This is her cleverness. It's obvious to you that there is a trap in front of you, but if she pinches your seven inches, you have to jump down."
Shen Nanyi couldn't hear this and shook her fan angrily, "Mom, it's come to this, and you still praise her!"
Mrs. Peng glanced at her and said harmoniously: "What do you know? Learn from the past and choose the good and follow it. This has been true since ancient times."
After Shen Nanyi got a hairpin, she rarely learned from Mrs. Chen, but she had already learned everything she needed to learn. Now when she heard Peng's words, she didn't feel it was fair or reasonable. Instead, she felt that her mother's elbows were turned outward.
Thinking of the previous training she had received from Shen Nanbao, Shen Nanyi felt that the wound on her cheek hurt again. She couldn't help but touch it, stared at Peng, and after a while she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "Mother Are you afraid?"
Mrs. Peng was not annoyed after hearing this, she just raised her eyes and looked into the distance.
The autumn season is gradually entering, but the sun is still so powerful. The tall and cascading treetops squeeze the dome into a thin beam, and when it falls, it is a broken light that can make people dizzy.
Mrs. Peng squinted his eyes in this scene. Under his sparse black eyelashes, there was a knack for seeing through the world, "Afraid? Do you think I am as reckless as you?"
Ana Shen squirmed, looking a little unwilling.
Mrs. Peng laughed, "If you could learn just a little bit from Shen Nanbao, how could you still get slapped in the face? Now she is inciting you and Miss Yi to fight each other, you don't know how to treat others the way they are treated. body, hold her seven inches?"
Shen Nanyi was dumbfounded, "Seven inches? What seven inches does Shen Nanbao have?"
After dealing with such a situation, Shen Nanyi knew in her heart that despite Shen Nanbao's usual soft and frail appearance, which seemed to be just being crushed and rounded by others, he was actually very invulnerable.
Mrs. Peng turned her gaze leisurely, "Look at how steady and calm she is on weekdays, but now she actually moved her hands for a servant..."
At that time, Shen Nanbao was walking to Rong Yuexuan, when the breeze blew and she couldn't help but sneeze.
Only then did Feng Yue remember, "I forgot to take the medicine for nasal hemorrhoids because of Miss Yi's interruption. It's time to feel cold now..."
There was unspeakable sadness in his tone.
Shen Nanbao poked her forehead, "You are just lazy and don't want to heat up again."
As he was talking, he turned his eyes and saw Fang Guan standing in a corner, watering the walnut trees.
After probably hearing the noise, Fang Guan turned around, folded his hands and bent his knees towards Shen Nanbao, "Sister."
Shen Nanbao hummed. Last night, he was hiding and taking a nap when he heard the cicadas were watching. Lu Kui was moved to the pavilion to show his face. When the three of them were alone in the courtyard, they didn't hide it and just tucked it in. Asked: "What are you going to say to me?"
She said this in a cold voice. Fengyue was startled when she heard it, but Fang Guan still had the same light expression and lowered his head and sang, "Master said, if sister is wronged, she must send a message to her."
The wind suddenly blew over, making Shen Nanbao's heart skip a beat, "Why should I know whether I have been wronged or not?"
At this time, Fang Guan was finally able to express his feelings, "Sister, I forgot, I said before that the master asked the Liang family to come to our house to propose marriage, not for himself, but for you, sister."
Fang Guan's eyes were sincere, but it made Shen Nanbao's heart tighten.
Fang Guan explained, probably because of his undisguised expression of curiosity, "The second girl and Ji Qian asked Yun Pan to go to the gold and silver shop on Guanxiang South Street to buy a hairpin. At that time, the master noticed that the second girl was doing something and was afraid that he might frame her. "My son, I came up with the idea of asking the Liang family to come and marry me, but seeing that my sister has her own plans and is walking steadily step by step, I will wait and see what happens."
If these words were heard by his grandmother and father, chills would run down their spines, but after hearing this, Shen Nanbao felt a sense of security, as if someone was holding him in the palm of his hand and being fully protected.
But she knew very well that she shouldn't have such a feeling.
If you rely too much on one person, you will believe it with all your heart, and after you believe it, you will not understand too many things.
As a result, betrayal, deception, and resentment all follow one after another.
Shen Nanbao curled his lips and teased lightly at the end of his eyes, "I had settled that matter properly a long time ago. He later asked the Liang family to come and marry him. Is it possible that it was because of me?"
She was obviously questioning, but Fang Guan raised his head, staring at her with his deep, dark eyes, "Sister, what do you think?"
Shen Nanbao pursed his lips and said nothing. He only held the handle of the fan tightly, and the uneven textured seal was clasped in the palm of his hand, which made his limbs and bones ache.
Fang Guan half-closed his eyes, "Master said, this matter... Sister and I are pushing the boat along with the current, but they are treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Master Shen is still idle, and the second girl is still waiting in the boudoir. Everyone bullies the weak and fears the strong, so it will not be a problem in the future." Because of this, trouble will arise, what will happen to my sister when the time comes?"
So let Shen Nanwan get married.
Shen Shi was promoted to a noble title and became the founding son of the country.
Let her embroidery skills be favored by the officials, so that Mrs. Yin, who values fame and fortune, dare not touch her.
Did he actually start making arrangements for her so early?
Shen Nanbao's heart began to tremble, and he couldn't help but think of that spring day, that afternoon, when he stood in front of her and placed the jade beast pendant heavily in her hand.
He said, "Fourth girl, I want to share weal and woe with you."
At that time, she only felt that he was teasing her, and she even felt that he was just using her.
Now thinking about it again, did he treat her with sincerity from beginning to end?
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but take half a step back.
The hasty pace made Fang Guan raise his head.
Afraid that she would see the horror in his eyes, Shen Nanbao hurriedly fanned himself, "I am not as far-sighted as Dan, nor can I cover the sky with one hand, so I can only take one step at a time..."
Fang Guan didn't think this was wrong, but he still nodded and interrupted: "Master understands, but Master also said that it is too hard for my sister to live like this."
Just like his careless words at the spring banquet.
His throat felt like there was a ball of cotton stuffed in it, and it was so choked. Shen Nanbao swallowed hard, but it was in vain. The emotion came from the bottom of his heart and couldn't be let go, so it rushed to his eyes, filling his vision with confusion.
When no one was paying attention, she hid behind the fan and used her sleeves to tuck her eyes. After tucking her eyes until there were no traces, she replied with a dry voice: "Whoever lives does not have a hard life, even officials have their own sufferings that cannot be treated as humane things." , I accept your wishes, but this is my own business, so you don’t need to be distracted and tired by me in the future.”
Without waiting for the official's answer, she ordered again: "The medicine this morning is cold. Go and warm it and bring it to me."
After that, he turned back to the house, sat on the armchair, and stared straight at the broken Qiankun walnut.
Although Feng Yue was only in her teens and had never experienced love, and her so-called happiness was just heard from story books, this did not prevent her from personally feeling the difference in how her sister treated Xiao Commander.
It was just that Shen Nanbao was silent, so she couldn't speak. She waited attentively and breathlessly for a long time, but she couldn't wait any longer, so she spoke quietly, "Sister, how do you know that Fang Guan has given me a message?"
Shen Nanbao turned his eyes, faced Feng Yue's childish look on his eyebrows, and said bluntly: "Otherwise, do you think that every time the magistrate comes out of the house to deliver?"
Fengyue was suffocated, and suddenly remembered that Shen Nanbao had asked Fang Guanyi to purchase flowers and plants in the courtyard, "Is there a hole behind the Jingtao?"
Shen Nanbao's eyebrows raised slightly, "After all, after following me for so long, I have become more enlightened."
Fengyue blushed, rubbed her clothes and said shyly: "Sister, please don't..."
After reacting, Feng Yue raised her head suddenly, "So that's true?"
Fengyue was a little worried, "This, this, if someone discovers it, wouldn't it be..."
yes.
Although Rong Yuexuan was neglected because of Gu Xiaoniang's family, she might as well not let anyone come to her door if she noticed something was wrong. She might be able to deduce something if she took a closer look.
So she can't wait any longer.
Not only because of this, but also because she was unable to respond to Xiao Yichen's affection.
If it continues, who knows what it will be like?
Shen Nanbao thought deeply and sighed slightly, "Feng Yue, go to the steward's office and ask if there is a carving knife. I have to find a way to repair the Qiankun walnut given by Miss Gu."
Fengyue was stunned, wondering why Xiaoxiao was talking about Fang Guan delivering the letter, and why the next sentence turned into Qiankun Walnut.
However, her sister is very opinionated. If she keeps asking this question, she will only make her dislike her.
It's better to shut up and obey.
Then Fengyue took the order and went to the steward's office to get a set of carving knives.
Shen Nanbao sat by the desk, tied his shirt, and carefully carved walnuts in the sky.
But this thing was very delicate, and he didn't have the mentality to burn everything. He practiced it for several years, but he couldn't get it right, so Nanbao spent more than a day tinkering with it. Not only was he not good at it, but it became even more unsightly.
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but lose his temper, put down the walnut and muttered, "This thing is more difficult than embroidering!"
Fengyue felt sorry for her eyes, and said sadly: "You and that little lady didn't pay attention to your posts, so why should I take the thing she gave you seriously?"
Shen Nanbao closed his eyes and rubbed the tips of his eyes, "Didn't eldest sister say that last time? That little lady is a reclusive master, and she is a very reclusive person who doesn't give me face, and she is so kind and kind to give me such a fee. There is no reason not to cherish the literary play of the mind."
Fengyue was speechless now and silently rubbed her forehead for her.
The sound of walking was heard outside. Shen Nanbao opened his eyes and saw Lu Kui coming in with dinner brought from the kitchen.
She was put in solitary confinement. Although she was sent to Rong Qiyi to see her, she still had to look good. Rong Qiyi might as well go to the house to uncover the tiles again, causing a mess in the whole room.
However, a plate of dried pickled vegetables and a bowl of porridge so watery and clear that you could see the bottom made Feng Yue frown hard.
"I asked you to go to the kitchen to bring food. What did you bring? If you sprinkle this food on the dogs, the dogs won't eat it! Why do you ask me to eat it?"
Lu Kui's body trembled suddenly, and she knelt down in a hurry, "Sister, calm down, it's not that the younger one meant to be like this. It was just that when the younger one went to the kitchen, he happened to meet the eldest girl and Miss Yi arguing in the management office next door. The eldest girl I didn’t say that Miss Yi was just out of her mind, so I saw the little one..."
