203 spread
For the rest of the day, Fukangan has been in a dead state.
But it didn't last long.
Because Mrs. Fu Heng, who had achieved her goal, quickly opened her mouth and sent her son away-"There's nothing to do here, our group of ladies are talking here, and you can't interject, so let's go back first." ”
“……”
It should have been a very gratifying thing to be able to leave this place freely, but Fukangan's steps to leave looked particularly heavy.
He didn't know how things could have gotten to this point.
In the past, when he made mistakes, Amma was punished by kneeling and grounded.
can be replaced by Eniang, she neither does it, nor does she want to restrict his freedom.
But what is the use of superficial freedom?
His soul will be bound to life and die.
Thinking of those three rules, Fukangan closed his eyes weakly, and a love called life without love slowly rose from the depths of his heart.
And after he left, the atmosphere in the flower hall changed.
Everyone changed their expressions.
Mrs. Wang Jie smiled and talked about what she heard from Mrs. Yuan Mei yesterday that a new fat powder shop had opened on Bozi Street, and the rouge in the shop was very easy to use, and there was also flower water brought back from the West to sell, and the name of the shop was 'Exquisite Fragrance Shop'.
Nowadays, the trade between the Qing Dynasty and the West is limited to the open shore of Guangzhou, and Guangdong is thousands of miles away from the capital, and many Western gadgets flow to the capital, and the value is not a problem, the key is that the supply exceeds the demand.
Not to mention the side, just say that this is not as a flower dew for trade goods, if anyone's wife and girl can spray two drops out of the door, it is a face-saving thing.
Mrs. Fu Heng is not short of this, the last time she entered the palace to talk to Lafayette, Lafayette just rewarded her with a bottle, but seeing the rise of Mrs. Wang Jie, she has always liked to study makeup, so she suggested that it would be better to go to this newly opened fat powder shop to have a look.
Mrs. Wang Jie also has this intention.
Therefore, the two ladies hit it off and got up immediately.
And Feng Jiwen was inevitably semi-forcibly piggybacked by the two ladies who were enthusiastic and difficult.
The three of them took the carriage of Fu Heng's Mansion to Bozi Street.
The carriage stopped in front of the newly opened fat powder shop, and the three men got out of the carriage one after another.
This renovated shop is not overcrowded as Feng Jiwen imagined.
Despite this, most of the female customers who are looking at the fat powder are gorgeously dressed, and they know that they are all rich or noble people when they look at the clothes and jewelry.
Feng Jiwen glanced left and right.
It seems that the price of the things in this shop is very expensive, and it is very clear which part of the money in Beijing women want to earn.
When the guys in the store saw that there were customers coming, they hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.
"I heard that the fat powder in your store is good, take a few out and show us a few. Mrs. Wang Jie asked, "I heard that there are still flower dew water from the West for sale?"
"Good fat powder is there. But there is not much toilet water, and if you want to buy it, you have to hurry up. Otherwise, it will be at least more than three months before the next shipment is shipped back from Guangzhou. He said with a smile, looking very good at doing business: "A few ladies will sit down to eat tea first, and the small ones will take a few good things for a few to see." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone led Mrs. Fu Heng and a few people to sit down, and someone quickly served tea, and even a few plates of exquisite snacks.
It looks like no matter whether the business is done or not, the guests are entertained first.
"The color of this lipstick is really good. ”
A female guest next to her said softly, her voice was as soft as a spring breeze, which made people feel gentle to the bone.
Feng Jiwen unconsciously cast her gaze, and saw two women sitting at the next table, looking down at the fat powder sent by the guy.
Feng Jiwen, who had just spoken, vaguely felt that she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
I think it should be the wife of which family, she happened to see it at some banquet or flower viewing party.
The other is completely eye-born.
Feng Jiwen felt that the one who was born in her eyes also opened her mouth, but the words she said had nothing to do with the fat powder, "Has my sister-in-law heard about Miss Jin Er?"
Feng Jiwen, who had already withdrawn her gaze, was stunned when she heard this.
The smile on Mrs. Fu Heng's face, who was talking to Mrs. Wang Jie, also faded slightly.
"I heard a little bit before I went out. The soft-voiced woman sighed softly, "I don't know how this second lady Jin is so dignified, why did she suddenly do such a malicious thing...... I vaguely heard about it yesterday, but I still don't believe it. ”
"But it's not!" said another woman with some annoyance for some reason: "I thought this was a good boy, a few days ago, I always let Sheng Sheng go in and out with her, who would have thought that such a thing would happen - sister-in-law, you don't know, Sheng Sheng has been close to her recently, and helped her a few words in Jingyang Building that night...... You don't know her child's temperament, she is used to being tough, and she is a friend who is angry, which is a little dazzling...... Now that this Miss Jin Er has done something wrong, even our family Shengsheng has been involved! Many people are secretly pointing fingers......
Feng Jiwen condensed when she heard this, and listened to the woman speak with a Shengjing accent, and couldn't help but guess which lady was helping the 'Shengsheng' in her mouth that night, and the identity of this woman.
It must be the inner room in Minqing not long after returning to Beijing.
And this lady who was called her sister-in-law was obviously Yu Qixian's mother.
No wonder she faintly felt familiar.
But...... How can you listen to the two of them talking like this, it seems that Jin Rongyue's incident in Jingyang Tower that night was not suppressed?
Isn't that right?
I haven't seen any movement from the Jin family yet, why did the development of events suddenly turn such a big turn?
Mrs. Fu Heng and Mrs. Wang Jie glanced at each other, and they were both quite surprised.
The two of them had already known about this in detail, but they didn't expect the news to spread so quickly.
The lady was still sighing.
"Sheng Sheng has just returned to Beijing, and because he got closer to that Miss Jin Er, he was pointed at and discussed......" she said: "If you have a reputation for being brutal and domineering, I am afraid that it will be a problem for family affairs in the future." ”
Yu Shengsheng was exempted from the draft in his early years and did not need to participate in the draft.
Now that he is getting married upright, the word "boudoir" is naturally the most important thing.
"You don't have to think things so seriously. Mrs. Yu said softly: "In the end, Shengsheng, she just helped a few words, and she didn't know the truth in advance, so she wouldn't be implicated." You just need to pay attention, don't let her have too much contact with that second lady during this time, and after this period of time, things will fade away. Our capital is not as good as Shengjing, there are many people and events, and no one will always hold on to such a thing. ”
"It's not just this time. Second Lady Yu said indignantly: "From now on, I will never let Sheng Sheng associate with her again! A good little girl's family, and she is so talented from outside, how can she pretend to have a bad stomach? ”
"Okay, okay......" Mrs. Yu said with a smile: "I came out today to buy rouge, but I didn't mean that these came." ”
Second Mrs. Yu knew that she felt that she was open-mouthed, so she reminded her, who was usually very arrogant, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed on her face, but she still said: "Even if I don't say this, there are a lot of people waiting to talk about it." ”
Now that the signs have emerged, it will only be in the past two days for the complete spread of the word.
The more Feng Jiwen listened, the more strange she felt, and even a little surprised.
Why didn't the Kim family do anything?
has not been embarrassed by the Jin family, which is certainly a good thing for the husband and wife who can't even say they have a firm foothold in the capital now, but a good thing for no reason is inevitably unsettling.
Could it be that Grandfather and He Shen have done something in the dark to stop the development of this matter?
But I didn't hear He Shen mention it.
Feng Jiwen felt that such a situation was unspeakably sudden and strange, and after separating from the two ladies, when she returned home, her first sentence was to ask her subordinates if He Shen had returned.
Xiao Yu said, "Uncle hasn't been back since he went out this morning." ”
It seems that he is still busy with Qian Yingming's case.
He's been worrying a lot lately, and he's tired enough.
Feng Jiwen glanced at the late sky, and then ordered: "Boil the medicine that I brought back to my master today, and tell the kitchen that the food has been lighter these days." ”
Xiao Yu should come down, and even if he did.
"Ma'am!"
At this time, Xiao Cha, who had just come back from the front yard, walked in happily and said to Feng Jiwen: "The old lady and the little young master see that the wife is here, and they are in the flower hall at this time!"
The old lady and the young master?
"Grandfather and Shu Zhi are here?" Feng Jiwen was stunned for a moment before she realized who this girl had not been able to change her title should refer to.
There are no old ladies or young masters in the He family.
"Yes, ma'am!" said Chacha with a smile on her face.
Feng Jiwen's face was also happy, and the person who had just sat down immediately got up again, cleaned up a little, and went directly to the flower hall.
When she came to the flower hall, she saw Feng Yinglian and Feng Shuzhi sitting there waiting for her to come over.
"Why did grandfather come here at this hour?" Feng Jiwen asked with a happy face as soon as she crossed the threshold.
"The crescent moon is coming. Feng Yinglian's face was also suddenly full of smiles, and while beckoning his granddaughter to come over, he said: "I heard about the incident of the previous night early yesterday, and I was going to come over yesterday morning, but yesterday I went to my place, saying that you are in Jingyun Nunnery, and it happens that the Internal Affairs Office is busy in the afternoon, so I can't come over in time." I came here early this morning, but I heard that you went to Jingyun Nunnery again—"
Did my grandfather come today?
Why haven't you heard anyone mention it?
Feng Jiwen was a little surprised, and Xiao Xing behind him didn't know what he thought, frowned and looked around in the flower hall.
There was no figure of the red heart who was supposed to be waiting in the front yard.
"The concubine has been feeling a little unwell recently, and I can't rest assured, so I went more diligently. Feng Jiwen smiled and sat down on Feng Yinglian's side, and said, "I let my grandfather run away in vain." ”
"What are these polite stupid words, from a child's granddaughter's house, even if you run a hundred times for nothing, then I am willing, what are you busy with!"
"If you really run a hundred times, twelve hours a day is not enough for you to run," Feng Shuzhi reminded weakly on the side...... "From Yinglian Mansion to here, even riding a horse will take half an hour." ”
Feng Yinglian glared at his grandson when he heard this, and said, "It's really like your father......"
There's no humor at all.
Feng Shuzhi laughed twice, and was also a little speechless.
He felt that he had not miscalculated......
Feng Yinglian couldn't help but glare at him again when he saw this.
Feng Jiwen looked at this situation, but couldn't help but raise her lips and smile.
It seems that the relationship between my grandfather and Shu Zhi is very different from the estrangement in the past.
That's a good thing.
Feng Yinglian then asked her granddaughter: "How is the health of the concubine?"
Feng Jiwen agreed to Concubine Guo's tight-lipped remarks about that night's events, and when she heard the words, she could only reply: "It's not a serious illness, I went to see it today, and I have already gotten better, and I should be able to recover after a while." ”
Feng Yinglian nodded, out of the taboo of the status of the concubine who was the concubine of the former emperor, it was not appropriate to ask more.
"Zhizhai hasn't come back yet?"
"Not yet. But if you count the hours, it should be soon. Feng Jiwen persuaded: "It's better for grandfather to stay and eat in the evening, and I'll let the maid go and order the kitchen to prepare some dishes you like to eat——"
Feng Yinglian smiled and nodded.
Ahem, I was going to go back after eating.
"Today I heard that Zhizhai has opened the trial of Qian Juren. Feng Yinglian seemed to have learned the progress of the case, and his face was full of relief: "This kid really didn't disappoint. ”
Seeing his old and relieved look, Feng Jiwen suddenly wanted to tell him how He Shen 'subdued' Qian Juren, and then see how the old man would react after learning that his good son-in-law had used such a 'side-by-side way' to complete the case.
However, as soon as her idea came to her heart, and before she could implement it, she heard Xiaoxian come and say that He Shen was back.
It's really Cao Cao, Cao Cao.
Hearing that his father-in-law was coming, He Shen first came directly to the flower hall to meet Feng Yinglian, and after a few words of greeting, he returned to Chunyuan to change into an official uniform, and then came to the flower hall to talk to his father-in-law.
The two talked about the situation from Qian Yingming's case to the court situation, and the conversation could not be described as unengaged, Feng Jiwen listened with her ears for a long time, and she didn't hear the two talk about the Jin family.
Haven't they heard about it?
But the news that she, a woman in the back house, can know, and now it is spreading outside, will these two people who are mixed in the court not hear about it?
I wonder if I'm going to say it in front of her?
Feng Jiwen muttered secretly in her heart, and when she saw that it was dark outside, she simply ordered the maid to pass the food.
At the dinner table, Feng Yinglian, who was in a good mood, wanted to pull his grandson-in-law to have two drinks.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by his granddaughter.
