Naturally, you have to go.
but……
Shen Nanbao lifted the car curtains, and the burning hot wind hit his face. It was like being immersed in a steamer, and his face was suffocated and hot.
Feng Yue next to her said at this time: "The ice I bought today should have arrived at my house. Madam is afraid of the heat. Let's put some ice in the carriage tomorrow."
Before it was time to change, Shen Nanbao agreed, but thinking about the war that was about to spread, he also became frugal. She said: "Forget it, it's not too hot now, just fan yourself."
Feng Yue looked at the sky outside through the gap in the car curtain and pursed her lips, "Why is it not so hot? It's hotter today than it was during summer in Gyeonggi Province."
Yi Bi'er said, Yi Bi'er flapped his sleeves.
The breeze blew against Shen Nanbao's face. She squinted and looked outside. The sun at noon was like a sharp axe, cutting across the border. No one or any shadow was gone.
In fact, Feng Yue is right. The terrain of Gongzhou is not as flat as that of Gyeonggi Province. On the contrary, it is surrounded by mountains, like a huge steamed cage, trapping everything in it. Moreover, due to the constant rain, the winter is wet and cold, and the summer is extremely cold. It's muggy, so it's almost summer, and the man on top looks like he's going to be tanned.
Shen Nanbao put down the curtain and moved her eyes from the bright place to the dark place. There was an obvious dark spot in her sight. She closed her eyes and said, "The price of charcoal should be low at this time. Let's find an opportunity to sell some. Compared with this summer, winter is more difficult."
There was a profound meaning in the words, and Feng Yue understood it instantly, and immediately felt a little disappointed.
However, Shen Nanbao turned his eyes, picked up the food box she was holding, and smiled at Feng Yue's nagging eyes, "What about you, go do something for me, go to the government office and ask the father-in-law to sign for it that day. Who received me when the deed was signed?"
Feng Yue's eyes were confused for a moment, but she quickly calmed down and nodded without asking anything, "I understand, little one."
Shen Nanbao stopped the coachman, Ren Fengyue got off the horse, and looked at the empty street with no wind at all. He was about to hand her a bag of purses, but unexpectedly a figure jumped out of the interface. The outline looked very similar. Miss Liu.
Shen Nanbao was stunned.
Sensing something strange, Feng Yue followed Shen Nanbao's gaze and was also stunned.
"Did you just...see it?"
Comparing Shen Nanbao's slightly condensed tone, Feng Yue seemed even more delayed. She even nodded as if she was seriously ill, very slowly, "I saw it...it seems to be Mrs. Liu."
Turning his head, Shen Nanbao was also looking over, with a layer of frost in his clear eyes, "Then when you go, you can also ask Mrs. Liu if she also believes it."
Seeing Feng Yue nodding, Shen Nanbao handed over the pouch in his hand, "You buy an umbrella to hold it up when the sun is shining, and you weigh the rest and use it yourself. You must take care of it."
After giving these instructions, Shen Nanbao set off again to Xiao Yichen's blacksmith shop.
The two shops were not too far apart, with a carriage and only a cup of tea. However, for a while, Shen Nanbao thought over and over for a long time whether he should ask Xiao Yichen to write the deed and Mrs. Liu's thing.
After all, thinking back on it so many times, Xiao Yichen's occasional glances and silence made her vaguely feel that something was wrong.
But when she got off the carriage and looked up to see Xiao Yichen smirking at her under the scorching sun, the wall Shen Nanbao had just built in his heart instantly collapsed.
She went up to meet her, but Xiao Yichen was faster than her. He took her food box with one hand and held her with the other, "Why are you the only one here today? Where are they?"
Shen Nanbao's eyes flickered slightly, but he smiled openly, "Didn't I buy some ice yesterday? The people below didn't know anything, and I was afraid that Lu Kui wouldn't be able to handle it alone, so I left Feng Yue at home to help her."
Xiao Yichen led her inside, "In that case, ask Chi Yu and one of the others to follow you. This food box is so heavy. It will be very tiring for you to carry it on your arms."
She moved a little closer to her, and her eyes, which looked like ice knives to others, looked at Shen Nanbao with a look that was unwelcome on the street. She was so pitiful, "I thought you weren't coming. Woolen cloth."
With his throat a little low, Shen Nanbao looked at the waiters coming and going, and gave him enough face, and replied in a low voice: "Everyone
I said I would bring you food, but how dare I let you go hungry? "
have to. A "you" and a "dare" made Xiao Yichen's heart tremble.
After leading the people into the house, he sent away the waiter who was waiting for him in a serious manner, and then he came to Shen Nanbao eagerly, pouring tea and squeezing her arms, "It's such a hot day, actually I don't care I wish you could give it to me. You are already afraid of the heat. If you are suffocated in the steamer of the sedan chair, if something happens, my intestines will turn green."
Everyone was so groveling and arrogant. Shen Nanbao was no longer a human being when he stood on stilts and sang a big show. She softened her face because of her gentleness and smiled at him, "I won't give you food, then if you faint from hunger After this, don’t I have to regret my youth? Okay, I’ve stopped being angry a long time ago. If you do this again, if word gets out, people won’t be able to talk about my toughness?”
Xiao Yichen snorted, very arrogantly, "They dare! I am willing to pamper my wife!"
He rolled his eyes and saw a thin smile on Shen Nanbao's face, and couldn't help but laugh along with him.
That smile was like that of an idiot, silly and silly, but when you peeled off this layer of sillyness, it was filled with simple feelings for her.
How could she doubt such a person, so when she brought out the food in the food box, she took the opportunity to ask about Mrs. Liu.
Xiao Yichen picked the tenderest piece of wild rice from the plate and put it on Shen Nanbao's plate, "I don't know, you also know that I can't meet the governor face to face, so how can I ask about this, not to mention that I just jumped all the way." There is no time to ask her in these two shops."
The tone at the end was filled with surprise, probably because he thought of those things in the past and felt unlucky.
As Shen Nanbao thought this, Xiao Yichen raised his head suddenly, "Leave her alone, aren't you afraid that the Liu family will rely on us again? Although there are a few ounces of meat indispensable, the pestle is still very scary in front of you."
He added, "If you are really curious, I will wait for that person to come and ask him. He and the governor often meet each other, so he should know."
The tone was like someone who had just come out of the brine vat, and was full of sourness. Shen Nanbao knew that Xiao Yichen was talking about Chen Fangyan without even thinking about it.
He added this because he was afraid that she would secretly find Chen Fangyan about this matter.
Shen Nanbao pursed his lips and smiled, "I understand, I'm not looking for him."
Xiao Yichen's ears suddenly turned red, "I know, just eat quickly, it will get cold later." Then he hurriedly buried his head in the bowl and picked up the rice.
That description made Shen Nanbao smile even deeper, but as soon as he got home, Shen Nanbao asked if Fengyue was back.
Lu Kui was stirring in the basin with a towel, and the water rippled with a rippling sound. Before she could say anything, Feng Yue walked in through the partition, with a small face flushed, obviously from the sun.
Shen Nanbao hurriedly handed her the towel, and then went to get a glass of water to drink, "Just wipe your face, I asked you to buy an umbrella, why didn't you buy it?"
Lu Kui wiped her face haphazardly, but spoke very clearly through a towel, "I'm afraid that I won't have enough money to go to the Yamen Lishi. Besides, Madam has to reduce the expenditure on ice. I am the closest person to Madam. Naturally, I have to imitate him first."
As he spoke, a pair of smiling eyes emerged from the turban, and when he handed the turban back, the smile subsided into his skin, leaving only a solemn expression.
"Madam, I went to inquire about it. On the day when the father-in-law signed the contract, Jiang Fuyin personally received him."
The movement of drinking tea paused, and Shen Nanbao looked at Feng Yue, "Is it true? It's been so long, how come they still remember it so clearly."
Feng Yue looked at Shen Nanbao's expression and spoke carefully, "It's been a long time, but it's only half a month. Not to mention ordinary businessmen, who can ask a governor to keep such a low voice and to please with a shy smile, so Everyone remembers it clearly."
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Nanbao's heart sank, and the bit of ice water that had just passed through his throat seemed to have cooled down into his stomach.
Fengyue watched, and of course she saw Shen Nanbao's bad direction. She glanced at Lu Kui with a blank look, then looked back and said, "Madam..."
She was interrupted by Shen Nanbao's deep voice, "What about Miss Liu?"
"Miss Liu..." Feng Yue rubbed her hands and glanced at Lu
sunflower.
Shen Nanbao didn't know what she was thinking, "Just say it, if my father-in-law dares to question you, he must first ask me if I am willing."
In fact, the truth is that the father-in-law didn't dare to find anything against her. Fengyue understood that, but she had served Shen Nanbao for so long and had witnessed how the father-in-law treated his wife. She was unwilling to call her out from the bottom of her heart. There was a gap between the two. ..
But when she met Shen Nanbao's knife-like eyes, Feng Yue's heart trembled, her mouth opened, and everything leaked out.
"Mrs. Liu said she was looking for someone that day, but she actually put the Liu family in jail. Governor Jiang didn't even send an arrest warrant to look for her, let alone bring her back."
He didn't look for her, maybe because Jiang Fuyin was wearing silk and eating chaff, just looking shiny on the outside; or maybe he knew where Miss Liu was, so he naturally wouldn't look for her.
As for whether it was the former or the latter, Shen Nanbao felt it was the latter.
The room was full of his own people, Shen Nanbao felt unhappy, and it showed directly on his face.
Seeing this, Feng Yue knelt down quickly, "Madam, maybe this news is wrong, my father-in-law..."
When I mention these two words, I think of the way the fool smiled at her at noon.
I even remembered him looking at her solemnly and saying, "I will never deceive you."
He obviously said it so sincerely at the time, but why did he turn away... So no matter who it is, it means that the promise is true. After this moment, everything is forgotten?
The face was so congested that Lu Kui hurriedly added, "Madam, don't think too much. My father-in-law must have some reasons. He is sincere about you, and you guys can all see it." .”
Shen Nanbao shook his head, "I know he is sincere to me..."
She also understood that maybe he had difficulties, but didn't Chen Fangyan in his previous life have difficulties as well? It's still for her own good.
However, it was so good that it allowed her to live through the most uncomfortable last period of time, and even sent her to death.
She didn't want, or she didn't want her and Xiao Yichen to make the same mistakes in their previous life.
If that's the case... Shen Nanbao looked out the window, and a ray of sunlight fell in, shining brightly in her eyes. What was the point of her rebirth?
