Chapter 27: Mrs. Lee's Thanksgiving (2)
Shen Jinyu stood up and took the box, Mrs. Li's kindness was too much, which made her a little flattered, but it was difficult to resist such hospitality, but she was embarrassed to refuse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When Mrs. Li saw that she had accepted the gift, her heart seemed to be at ease, and she took her hand affectionately and said, "Miss Shen, who has no parents, I just ask you to understand the heart of a mother." ”
Speaking of this, it can be regarded as a warning and an explanation.
Shen Jinyu didn't know what kind of mood to use to understand these words, so she had to take something and leave.
Cheng Xuan waited outside the door, and when Shen Jinyu came out, he stepped forward to walk back to the room with her.
As soon as Shen Jinyu left, Mama Wang entered the room, and Mrs. Li asked, "Why didn't you send Miss Shen back to the room?" ”
Mama Wang said: "The third young master didn't let me, just said that he would accompany his wife well." ”
Mrs. Li asked again, "In your opinion, is there ...... between the two of them?" ”
Mama Wang thought about it, looked at Mrs. Li's face again, and replied cautiously: "When I came here just now, it didn't look like I had a private relationship, but between the eyebrows of the two, young men and women, and concubines, it is difficult to say after a long time, let alone ......"
Mrs. Li frowned slightly and said, "What's more, lonely men and widows coexist together, and they have shared hardships together, and I am afraid of this." Fortunately, Shen Jinyu is an acquaintance, she took away my silver thousand taels today, and the jewelry she married me can be regarded as buying this life-saving grace. ”
Mama Wang followed Mrs. Li to marry from her mother's family to Chengfu, and she had also seen the grand occasion with her own eyes.
Mama Wang remembered the days before she married Mrs. Li, and she was indescribably sad, she cheered up and comforted Mrs. Li and said, "Miss, don't be too sad, I think the young master is very sensible, and he will be measured." ”
Mrs. Li sighed deeply and said: "He originally blamed me a little, you see that after Mingzhu came, he was rarely close, and the Li family's abacus was also too fine." ”
There is a scarcity in the eyes. She also had endless regrets and feelings of weakness in her heart.
Mrs. Li's father was degraded with King Cheng, and before the status of the Li family was not as good as before, he was also affected by the pond fish, and then, after Cheng Xuan became an adult, the Li family sent a distant relative, Gu Mingzhu, which means that he didn't dare to get too close, and he was afraid that King Cheng would turn over in the future?
Mama Wang heard Mrs. Li blame the Li family, and she didn't dare to speak, after all, although they are all from the Li family, the relationship is still very different, Mrs. Li can complain by herself, and a servant of her own casually talks about the master, that is, to die.
Over there, Cheng Xuan sent Shen Jinyu back to Jinyuexuan, and all the way was also thinking about his own thoughts, Cheng Xuan always wanted to ask Mrs. Li what she said, but Shen Jinyu only felt that the silver ticket and jewelry in her hand were hot. Before you know it, it's almost there.
Approaching Jinyue Xuan, Cheng Xuan seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Shen Jinyu: "I have something to look for you tonight, and you wait for me in the middle of the night." ”
Shen Jinyu smiled and said, "I'm free now, please have something to say." ”
Cheng Xuan looked around, there was no one to talk to, so he hesitated and said: "What I want to say is related to your body, the first few **** are in Sangtian, unwell, I will help you ask a doctor to see." ”
Shen Jinyu's face turned red in an instant, Cheng Xuan immediately stopped talking and didn't say any more, Shen Jinyu felt that it was extremely inappropriate at this time, she looked like she was now, anyone who saw it would feel something.
She turned her back to Cheng Xuan for a long time before she gradually calmed down, and the burn on her face slowly faded, she turned to Cheng Xuan and said, "In this case, if Cheng Gongzi is convenient, just, just, just." ”
Shen Jinyu couldn't talk anymore after a few in a row, and the words that followed were like invitations, Cheng Xuan saw her embarrassed and hurriedly answered: "I can save it." ”
Fortunately, no one was passing by at this time, and Shen Jinyu said to Cheng Xuan: "I am familiar with this road, just go back by yourself, and don't send each other away." ”
After that, he didn't care about etiquette, so he fled in a hurry.
returned to Jinyuexuan, and rushed directly into the room, when Biyu rarely saw her so rude, she didn't know what happened to her, and followed her into the room to see.
Shen Jinyu ran to the bed and covered herself with the quilt, Biyu asked her what was wrong, she only vaguely said that she was too tired these days and wanted to take a rest, so Biyu had to go with her.
After calming down for a while, Shen Jinyu relieved herself. This Cheng Xuan, actually, just told her like this, thinking about it, his face turned red again, and he remembered that he would have to come again for this matter at night, and his face burned even more.
Biyu heard Shen Jinyu's movement, went into the room to see if she was awake, and when she saw her blushing, she wanted to go up and touch her forehead to see if she was sick.
Shen Jinyu hurriedly avoided her head, only saying that she was covered by the quilt just now.
As if to hide his embarrassment, Shen Jinyu quickly got up and handed the walnut box he had just brought back to Biyu, and put the packages he brought from Sangtian on the table together, and opened them one by one.
Biyu's attention was really diverted, she first picked up the clothes and looked at them one by one, and exclaimed, "Miss, where have you been these days?" These clothes and decorations are very exquisite, and they are comparable to the clothes of the eldest lady that day. ”
Then he opened the box he had taken from Kuwata to look at the jewelry.
"This box of jewelry is not cheap, especially this plum blossom jade hairpin, the best Hetian white jade, the jade is delicate, white as mutton fat, and the workmanship is also exquisite."
Shen Jinyu's face slowly receded, and he said with a smile: "I know that it is right for you to help me see it, in your opinion, how much is this jade hairpin worth?" ”
Biyu took the white jade hairpin in her hand and looked at it again and again, before she hesitated: "This hairpin is sold for five hundred taels of silver, and even if there is silver, you may not be able to choose such a good thing." ”
Shen Jinyu was a little surprised that it would be so expensive, so she asked, "Five hundred taels of silver?" What is this number enough for in Beijing, you are dealing with the contacts in Chengfu. I really don't understand that. ”
Biyu thought for a while and replied: "This good land in the suburbs of Beijing, ten taels can buy one acre, five hundred taels can buy fifty acres of good land, and the annual rent money is enough for our expenses for a year. ”
After listening to this, Shen Jinyu went to her own luggage and rummaged through it, first found the three hundred taels of silver tickets hidden in the cover of the book, found a few pills, and carefully peeled them off, which actually contained a lotus seed-sized jade-white Dongzhu.
Shen Jinyu sighed and said, "Now it seems that it can't be saved, how much can you exchange for these few pieces?" ”
She began to contact silver money in Lingnan, in that environment silver is still quite valuable, and their lives are not luxurious, so the three hundred taels of silver tickets she brought originally felt that it was more than enough for the future life, but I didn't expect that the price in Beijing was so high.
