Xiao Yichen naturally remembered, not only that, but what Chen Fangyan said to Shen Nanbao at that time and the look on Shen Nanbao's face were all burned into his heart like a soldering iron!
Seeing him looking over, Kun Hong was startled and quickly lowered his head, "Then Chen Duhu stayed in Shen Mansion for more than a day. That is to say, Shen Shi went to the house where Chen Duhu was recovering from his injuries. After a few sticks of incense, when he came out again... that old man Shen Shi tied up someone to check Fang Guan and the gap in the southeast corner of Rong Yuexuan."
Xiao Yichen didn't respond, but Kun Hong understood what he meant and just continued, "Master should still remember what happened the next day. Headed by Chen Duhu, followed by the founding Earl's family and the Qinghe Earl's family, they all filed lawsuits against Shen My mother's crime implicated Peng and Shen Shi."
Needless to say about what happened next, Xiao Yichen also had an idea.
After all, Chen Fangyan met with the officials in private that day because of the drought and famine. Although the officials later only issued a decree that "the hungry people must be redeemed and returned to their homes", but did they discuss Shen Shi? No one knows about Shen Nanbao.
Not knowing is a variable, everything is possible.
Xiao Yichen breathed a sigh of relief and asked him to continue investigating, while he sued someone and asked the Zhao family to come to the house the next day.
The intention was very clear, he was determined to please Shen Nanbao.
As for Shen Nanbao, although he was in excruciating pain last night, he got up early in the morning and embroidered by the window.
Since moving into the Prince's Mansion, things have happened one after another, and it was only today that she had the time to think about other things.
However, Fengyue felt that it was not easy to have some free time. Wouldn't it be good to lie down at home peacefully? However, the most she could do was complain. Shen Nanbao ordered her to thread the needle and split the thread, and she did as he was told.
At this time, someone came from the front and said that Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were here.
The smile that hadn't been seen for a long time on Shen Nanbao's face finally swayed like a flower in the autumn wind. When he came to the front hall and saw the two elders, the smile became wider, his eyes were red, and his voice was trembling. , “Grandma, Grandpa.”
While Yi Bi'er was talking, Yi Bi'er turned to look at the temples of the two of them. Even though they were combed meticulously and pressed with a lot of black hair, there were so many silver strands that they always popped out.
Shen Nanbao looked at it and turned red with envy, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Look at the gray heads of my grandparents. They must be worried about me!"
Old Mrs. Zhao's eyes were reddened by her half-joking, half-choking voice, but Old Mrs. Zhao glared at her, "You idiot! You're saying that I'm not old enough? I'm always getting stronger!"
As he spoke, he patted her shoulder gently, but the depression in the room dispersed.
Shen Nanbao choked back her tears and just smiled, helped Old Mrs. Zhao up and led her to her seat, "I should have gone to see my grandmother, but I asked her to come here so early. How did you sleep?" So, are you feeling at ease? Have you had breakfast?"
Old Mrs. Zhao sat on the armchair with black painted legs and slapped her hand suddenly, "Who did you learn from me at such a young age that you have such a motherly heart? I eat well and sleep well, so don't be so stupid!"
Mr. Zhao was sitting on one side and echoed: "No, it's you. It's only been a few days. I see that your complexion has deteriorated a lot."
After hearing this, Xiao Yichen, who was assigning his servants to serve tea, suddenly thought for some reason and said: "She has not been feeling well these days, but I have been diligently asking people to replenish her body, such as red dates and donkey-hide gelatin. , even the tea is made with brown sugar, so don’t worry, old lady."
As soon as he said these words, Mr. Zhao luckily didn't understand the secrets of those women. He blinked and looked deeply.
On the other hand, Old Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything. She only waited for the cup of tea to be brought in front of her, took the lid to scrape the foam, and then smiled at Xiao Yichen, "After all, this is the prince's palace, and all the tea is used." The extremely finely ground dragon ball is better than the snow, look at this bright white foam."
Xiao Yichen smiled, "I am just a ruthless family, but I can't compare to the old man and the old lady. I heard people say that the old man's Zhaojie Gan Tea House, apart from those bad teas, does it have a 'Mr. Twelve' to attract customers?" "
When mentioning this matter, Mr. Zhao straightened his waist slightly, "I was forced to have no choice. In recent years, the tea ceremony has become popular. Whether it is lanes, bridges, or courtyards, there are tea houses and tea shops everywhere, and these people In order to get the money from the guest officials' bags, I either decorate the house, or use beautiful makeup to welcome the door, and talk about ancient immortals to attract people. As for me, it doesn't work, but people have to eat this food in life, so I have to work hard. Tea, tea sharing skills..."
Seeing that he was about to continue speaking, Mrs. Zhao slapped her forehead and sighed, "It makes me feel confused. You can talk to the palace commander about your affairs. I will accompany Bao'er to take a look at her courtyard."
Seeing Xiao Yichen standing up, Mrs. Zhao stopped him with a pout, "Commander, please stay with this old man. No one talks to him like this on weekdays! He is so depressed!"
Regardless of whether Xiao Yichen responded or not, he took Shen Nanbao's hand and said, "Take me to open my eyes and see the grandeur of this county prince's palace."
That's all.
Shen Nanbao couldn't hear the depth of Old Mrs. Zhao's words. After walking through the corridor and walking up to the waterside pavilion, he caught Old Mrs. Zhao in the tiny light coming from the bushes and said, "Grandma, there is no one here now." , just say it."
Mrs. Zhao looked around for a while and saw that there was no one around. Then she looked Shen Nanbao up and down, "You were in a hurry to go back to Shen's house earlier. I didn't tell you about it, and there was no one around you to take care of it." Son...didn't you make a fool of yourself?"
Thinking of the absurdity of that day, Shen Nanbao's face turned red for a moment. It was as plump as a thin-skinned persimmon that would break if hit. It was transparent and bright, but his voice was very straightforward, "No, grandma forgot, there was a green sunflower by her side." Still waiting."
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Zhao thought she was embarrassed by talking about this matter, so she sighed, and then changed the subject, "Now that this matter has caused an uproar in the entire Gyeonggi Province, you want me to tell you directly? It's not up to you. Tell me directly?"
She didn't say what Shijing Yaoxu said.
After all, I had personally witnessed Shen Nanbao's entanglement with him, and I knew that the love was not a flicker of water, nor was it a candlelight that was unmasked. It dissipated like smoke when the wind blew. It was deeply brewed wine. It will become thicker if you don't use it for a long time.
Shen Nanbao, as for Shen Nanbao, was obviously startled after hearing this. After being startled, his thick eyelashes drooped down like this, and he only focused his eyes on the tiny specks of light on the ground.
"I don't know what to say. This situation is beyond all my expectations. Grandma, you probably won't believe it. When I get up these days, when I look up at the dark fence, I feel in a daze for a while. It takes me a long time to react. Come here, oh, I am now the second daughter of the county prince's palace, and I am the female country princess given by the official family..."
At the end of the sentence, she began to murmur, but Mrs. Zhao could hear the trembling voice, and her eyes turned red. She held her in her arms, stroked her smooth and shiny hair, and said sympathetically: " I believe it, why wouldn’t I believe you?”
The green cloth sleeves of Mrs. Zhao's body were so starchy that when Shen Nanbao's face touched them, she didn't feel astringent. Instead, she smelled the incomparable peace of mind of the scent of soap locust.
Shen Nanbao closed her eyes. Because she had cried, her voice was clear and refreshing. Matching her slightly pouted mouth, she had a childish air.
"Actually, I don't need others to believe me, and I don't want them to know how I feel. Sometimes I think about it, and maybe I don't say it out loud. I can treat it as if it didn't happen. I can just suppress my feelings. Then, I used the small copper fire chopsticks to stir up the incense ashes, and even after stirring them, they all scattered."
Her self-explanation fell into the ears of Old Mrs. Zhao. She didn't feel good, but became even more worried. She put her hands on her delicate shoulders, pulled away a little to look at her, and saw the tears on her beautiful face. He pursed his lips and whispered for a while: "I don't want to stay here anymore. Let's go back to Zhao's house."
yes.
Ruoda held her back from the beginning.
She was not allowed to return to the Shen family.
All these bad things and hurtful things will never happen.
She is still the baby in front of her who is sometimes silly and sometimes smart.
But Shen Nanbao shook his head, "Grandma, didn't you just say that? The whole Gyeonggi Province is watching my matter. If I go back to Zhao's house, what will others say about me? What will they say about him?"
Mainly because of him.
Mrs. Zhao didn't point it out. She wiped her face with a handkerchief and said, "I shouldn't ask you. You have always had your own opinion and are more self-possessed in dealing with these things than others. You will definitely not be like those people." A slut, she is so obsessed with love that she does things that are unacceptable in the world, but she will definitely be able to smile and watch her marry someone else."
He couldn't tell what he was feeling, just a blow from his pocket, a buzz, and Shen Nanbao's mind went blank. There was only the sound of old lady Zhao's green cloth sleeves spinning in his ears.
Gradually, the sound became louder and louder, sharper and sharper, like a sharp weapon, which instantly cut through her panic, "Sister, Old Mrs. Zhao and Old Mrs. Zhao are gone, what are you looking at?"
Shen Nanbao was startled, looking at Feng Yue who cast a confused look in front of him, and then looked at the carriage swaying away along the official road, as if in shock, he turned his head to look at Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen was also looking at her. Under his dark eyebrows, his eyes were like the surface of a lake blown by a gust of wind. Sometimes they would ripple, flash, and then darken again. Therefore, her whole body was reflected so clearly, and every bit of her expression was good. fallen.
As Shen Nanbao watched, his heart felt like it was thrown into the abyss, falling endlessly.
Will he stare at others so intently in the future?
Will he use that childlike temper to worry about others in the future?
Will he express his joy to others so sincerely in the future?
…
Shen Nanbao didn't dare to think about it anymore, he just felt that all the strength in his body had been drained, and he didn't even have the strength to stand.
She hurriedly lowered her head, bent her knees and said, "Brother, I'm a little tired, so I'm going to leave first."
Without waiting for his answer, he turned around and left.
But it's not that easy. Xiao Yichen clamped the crook of her elbow and said, "What did your grandmother say to you?"
