"Where the third girl is, I will tell her,"
Mrs. Shen said, "She is smarter, but when I look at her recently, she is kind-hearted in her smartness. She should be a sensible child."
While Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in her eyes: Her mother's evaluation of the third girl was not like this in the past...
recent?
It's easy to change the situation, but hard to change the nature. How can these three girls get better recently?
When everyone was resting in the afternoon that day, Aunt Yu, who was beside Mrs. Shen, invited Shen Yanjiao to the old lady's courtyard on the pretext of asking Shen Yanjiao for a new embroidery pattern.
"grandmother?"
Seeing that her grandmother was not resting, but was leaning on the couch drinking tea, Shen Yanjiao immediately guessed that she had something to say to her. Thinking of the uneasiness in Shen Ning's eyes when he saw her before...
Shen Yanjiao guessed it in her mind.
"Three girls, sit here,"
Mrs. Shen motioned Shen Yanjiao to sit over and said with a kind smile, "I still have something to talk to you about in private."
Shen Yanjiao hurried over and took the little girl who beat her legs from the hands of the little girl next to Mrs. Shen. While gently beating her grandmother's legs, she said with a soft smile: "I would like to listen to my grandmother's teachings-grandmother, please go ahead." Lean back, it will be more relaxing."
The more Mrs. Shen looked at her, the more she felt that her granddaughter was sensible and considerate, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
While looking at Shen Yanjiao, he slowly explained the matter to Shen Yanjiao.
"Zhao Shangshu's family?"
Shen Yanjiao's eyes lit up.
This is the same marriage as Fu Yunshan's in the previous life, and it has not changed in this life. It seems like a match made in heaven.
"This is the master of the Fu family,"
Mrs. Shen didn't understand Shen Yanjiao's reaction, so she hurriedly said, "This is also fate, and it's also something that can't be helped - you..."
He said and looked at Shen Yanjiao.
"I understand this,"
Shen Yanjiao felt relieved, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and her tone became more relaxed, "Cousin Yunshan is blessed, and great blessings are yet to come——"
This is true. Isn’t it a great blessing for a generation of famous ministers?
Mrs. Shen: "..."
What is the reaction of the third girl?
Mrs. Shen glanced at the handkerchief next to her that had been prepared by her nanny, fearing that the three girls would be temporarily hurt and cry out of control.
Who knew that it was useless not to say anything, how could these three girls still look so happy? Could it be that her old eyesight made her see the wrong thing?
"Grandma, Grandma Gangyu said she wanted to see the patterns, so I just happened to bring a few more over. Grandma has a look to see if there is any she likes."
Shen Yanjiao didn't want to make this trip in vain, so she simply took out all the embroidery samples she had prepared and asked Mrs. Shen to pick them out, "Which one does Grandma think is better? Can I use it to make a forehead wipe for Grandma?"
This is what she has always wanted to do since she was reborn. In her previous life, she really couldn't treat her relatives in the Shen family, especially her grandmother and aunt, who had always treated her fairly, but she always had a plan to please her...
Now she wants to do something for her grandmother in a down-to-earth manner. For example, she would like to make a forehead wiping for her grandmother with her heart. It will be useful for the old man when the weather is cold.
"this……"
This time it was Mrs. Shen's turn to turn around. She squinted and looked at the three girls again. Indeed, she did not see a trace of sadness or resentment on the face of the three girls. The clear eyes of the little girl were like those of Pinaxi. The mountain springs in Fengshan are still flowing clear and beautiful, as if they are reflected in the tranquility and clearness of many mountains and rivers...
This made her feel bad.
It must be that these three girls are too sensible and are afraid of making an old man like her sad, so even if they feel uncomfortable in their hearts, they still have to force themselves into this peaceful and peaceful place.
"Good boy,"
Mrs. Shen sighed with emotion in her heart, "These embroidery patterns are all new and exquisite... I can't even see them clearly, so why don't you pick one for me?"
Although her eyesight was dazzled, she could not clearly see the embroidery patterns. However, she was not in the mood to pick out the embroidery patterns at this moment. She was praising these three girls.
Shen Yanjiao responded with a smile and picked one. When Mrs. Shen nodded, she marked it and put it away. Seeing that Mrs. Shen had nothing else to say, she resigned.
"Aunt Yu, you just looked at it,"
As soon as Shen Yanjiao left, Mrs. Shen immediately looked at the nanny beside her and said, "These three girls are really restrained children... aren't they?"
"Old slave, I think so,"
Aunt Jade also sighed sincerely, "I'm so stupid, I never saw that the third girl has such a big heart."
"Not just you,"
Mrs. Shen sighed, "Even I underestimated her - go to the library and find out the head and face of the set of rubies I used to have. You can go and deliver them to the third girl in person."
Aunt Yu quickly responded: she knew that the suit was the old lady's favorite when she was young. Not to mention the preciousness of the ruby, the craftsmanship was done by a famous craftsman, and there was no flaw in it.
Nowadays, there are not many gold and silver pavilions in Beijing that can show such a good reputation. Compared with the old lady's previous favors to all the girls, this time it is considered a big deal.
Shen Yanjiao never expected that not only would she get rid of the problem in her heart, but she would also have an unexpected surprise:
Looking at the priceless set of heads and faces sent by Aunt Yu, Shen Yanjiao would be being pretentious if she said she wasn't surprised...it's really beautiful.
She asked her grandma to put it away carefully. This set of masks was one of the things she kept at the bottom of the box.
Different from Shen Yanjiao's relaxed and happy Mozhu Courtyard, in Mrs. Shen's Xiaodongquan Courtyard, Shen Ning was so angry that her face was filled with tears.
She never imagined that her precious son, who was usually a very stable young man, would go crazy with anxiety after she informed Mr. Fu of his proposed marriage.
Previously, she felt that these three girls had always been thoughtful, and once they learned the news, they would definitely find a way to cry and plot this marriage...
Therefore, after she came back from Mrs. Shen, she directly called her son Fu Yunshan into the Dongkua courtyard where they were staying temporarily, thus cutting off the possibility of the third girl, Shen Yanjiao, crying with her son in private.
Without the interference of the third girl, she has always believed that as long as she analyzes the pros and cons with her son, her son will definitely not be too dissatisfied with his knowledge.
Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, her son went crazy.
"What mother just said was a joke, right?"
At this time, Fu Yunshan swept the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table to the ground with his sleeve, and looked at his mother fiercely, his eyes even a little ferocious, "Mom, this is a joke, right?"
Shen Ning was caught off guard, and her voice was trembling a little: "What's wrong with you? You seem to have lost your soul - where have all the loyalty and filial piety etiquette you learned in the past... gone? This was decided by your grandfather himself. Who dares to disobey our marriage?"
Fu Yunshan held the table with both hands, breathing heavily, but did not respond immediately.
"I heard that the second girl from the Zhao family is also well-educated and polite, and her appearance is not bad either."
Shen Ning hurriedly continued to persuade, "It's also a good marriage——"
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Before Shen Ning could finish speaking, Fu Yunshan clenched his fists with both hands and hammered the table like crazy. There was a dull thud that shook the window lattice as if it was shaking.
"Yunshan——"
Shen Ning was so frightened that she burst into tears and hurriedly wanted to hug her son's arms, "What are you doing, what are you doing - your bones will break like this..."
"I only want the third sister."
Fu Yunshan's eyes were red and he almost roared.
Shen Ning was also anxious: "Zhao Shangshu is a good friend of your mentor. You should also think about the pros and cons when doing things——"
Fu Yunshan bit his cheek, his whole body was shaking, as if he was trying his best to suppress something. After all, he was still small. After a while, he couldn't hold on and started crying loudly.
Shen Ning couldn't persuade him no matter how hard he tried, so Fu Yunshan started a hunger strike. He didn't drink a sip of water or eat a sip of food. He lay on the couch for two days.
Originally, Shen Ning was afraid of being laughed at by the whole family, and was afraid of causing gossip, so she insisted on keeping the news from Dongkuaoyuan, saying that Fu Yunshan was not feeling well.
But after two days, Fu Yunshan suddenly became haggard, but he was still as stubborn as ever. Even his father was angry and speechless when he saw it. They are really helpless. It would be fine if the couple could really make the decision, but Mrs. Fu at home has made the decision and there is a marriage certificate...
Once you really change your mind, you will offend the person deeply. The Fu family really didn't dare and it was absolutely impossible.
Seeing that Fu Yunshan showed no intention of relenting, Shen Ning had no choice but to go to her mother and ask Mrs. Shen for help.
Mrs. Shen was speechless for a while when she heard this.
"In my opinion,"
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Shen looked at the light smoke curling up from the incense burner over there, and then said slowly, "To untie the bell, the person who tied it must still be tied... Why don't you quietly call the third girl to come over and persuade me -"
Shen Ning: "...Yes."
Shen Yanjiao only learned about the situation at Fu Yunshan's side after receiving the message from Aunt Yu. She held her forehead in silence for a moment and finally responded.
It's her fault too, the child who was tormenting really didn't deserve it. But she didn't expect that Fu Yunshan would cause such trouble. She originally thought that the boy was still uncertain, so she could just talk about it.
But Fu Yunshan's behavior also touched her heart. No matter what the reason, she had to enlighten this stubborn child.
She followed Aunt Yu to Mrs. Shen's side first, and then entered the Dongkua Courtyard.
"Good boy,"
After these two days, Shen Ning's eyes were a little red and her voice was a little hoarse, "Aunt, please—"
Seeing Shen Yanjiao nodding and walking in, Shen Ning was worried after all, so she sat outside through the partition and listened to what was going on inside.
"Brother Yunshan,"
When Shen Yanjiao walked in and saw Fu Yunshan's appearance, her heart skipped a beat and she quickly whispered, "I heard that you are... not feeling well?"
Fu Yunshan had his eyes closed, but when he heard the voice, he opened them suddenly. When he saw Shen Yanjiao, tears instantly filled his eyes and he struggled to sit up.
Shen Yanjiao quickly got a pillow for him, let him lean on it and said, "Would you like some water?"
"Three, third sister——"
Fu Yunshan grabbed Shen Yanjiao's sleeve and shouted hoarsely with tears.
Unexpectedly, I cried so hard that I couldn't breathe properly and blew out a snot bubble from my nose.
Shen Yanjiao: "..."
Can't laugh.
This is the next generation of famous ministers.
Shen Yanjiao secretly bit her lip and didn't see it. She didn't see it. Besides, if he really laughed, he would be so sorry for the child.
"Well……"
Fu Yunshan wiped it in a panic. Unexpectedly, he took a breath and blew out a bigger snot bubble.
Shen Yanjiao: "..."
puff.
She had just endured it, but once again she really couldn't bear it, so she could only quickly turn her back and cough violently to cover it up.
