73. Reparation

Zhenshu lifted the lid of the food box, saw the two dirty plates and bowls inside, and asked, "Do you still use the food box at home?" ”

Zhenxiu said: "It's Tong Qisheng's use, seeing the spring season, now he lives not far from Wen Jiao, I sent him some food." ”

Zhenshu nodded in response, and put her bowl and the plate in the food box together with the bowl and washed it, she washed it for a long time and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when she turned around, she saw that Zhenxiu was still looking at herself from the kitchen door, so she asked, "Why don't you go upstairs?" ”

Zhenxiu lowered her head and sighed: "Second sister, it turns out that my sister is not sensible, and there are some places where I can't stand you." ”

Zhenshu waved his hand and said, "My sister, what are you talking about?" You can't stand on your feet, so go upstairs. ”

Jung-su turned and left. Zhenshu cleaned these dishes and wiped the oil and dust accumulated in the kitchen during his absence, then took out the handkerchief, boiled water to clean his hands and face, and brought a basin of hot water upstairs to burn his feet. It was only when she lay on the bed that she sighed bitterly.

When she got on the horse that day, she wanted to refuse him and ask him to die, but when she returned home, she promised him to marry him.

"The emperor's pet, the notorious eunuch." Zhenshu muttered.

Zhenshu recalled his appearance, speech, posture, and the bits and pieces of his relationship with himself, shook his head and said secretly: He is not such a bad person, just like the rumors of Wang Shenzhi in the intoxicating world, maybe it is just a misunderstanding of others. But today, such a thing as sealing the river and the road will definitely not be allowed to do it anymore.

Zhen Xiu saw that she was married, and Zhen Yi would only wait for two or three years at most. At most, there will be three more years, and the two sisters will talk about marriage after the marriage is settled, or will this matter not be as difficult as it is now, right?

At that time, she also became an old girl, as long as someone came to ask for marriage, the Su family didn't care whether she was a eunuch or not, I was afraid that as long as it was a person, she would be willing. The young woman's mind was so changeable, although she was so sad, when she fell asleep, the corners of her mouth were already pouting with a faint smile.

Early the next morning, the unprecedented Su clan and Zhenxiu Zhenyi got up earlier than Zhenshu. When she rubbed her eyes and walked out of the bedroom, she saw that Zhenxiu and Zhenyi were already sitting outside and binding their feet, she had never liked to look at these small feet that were entangled, she shook her head and sighed and was about to go downstairs. Su Shi came over and stretched out his hand and said, "Shopkeeper, give me some money." ”

Secretary Zhen had to go to Liujiazhuang before giving the Su family twenty taels of silver, thinking that it would be able to withstand a month, but this pinching of the fingers was only four or five days, because he asked: "I only gave the silver to my mother's family a few days ago, why did I use it so quickly?" ”

Su Shi glared and said, "Isn't that a place to spend money?" When a family opens their eyes, it is firewood, rice, oil, salt, and that doesn't cost money? ”

Zhenyi interjected: "It's to prepare things for the two brothers-in-law." ”

It turned out to be for this. Zhenshu waved his hand and said, "I will let the apprentices do it for them, why do you little feet bother to run again?" ”

Su's biggest hobby in life is to buy and buy, and when he heard this, he frowned and said, "Will their little hairy children have good things there?" What should I do if the waddling cotton and chaff core is placed, and two of them are frozen to death in the examination room in the middle of the night? It's not good, what should I do if I can't melt into the field? There is also rice paper, even if you make a draft, it must be good. ”

Zhenshu took the key from the room, opened the cabinet, and drew a silver ticket of twenty taels to the Su family. Su Shi saw it and threw it to her and said, "What is this idea enough for?" You're so stingy, why don't I go and face it. ”

She put a set of heads worth thousands of taels in the silver building before, and now she says that she wants to be the head face at every turn. Zhenshu is also used to hearing it, and he doesn't care. It's just that it was already twenty taels the previous time, and this twenty taels is not enough, so I couldn't help but ask again: "How much silver can I use for those things?" ”

Zhenyi interjected: "There are also two brothers-in-law living in the hotel. ”

Zhenshu couldn't help but shouted: "I just gave Zhang Rui fifty taels of silver a few days ago, he can live in a drunken world for more than ten days, how can I ask my mother to pay for him to find an inn?" ”

Su Shi said: "Doesn't he still want to apprentice to the master, invite the master to dinner, and give the master a greeting gift, so he doesn't want silver?" ”

Zhenshu secretly slandered in his heart: I'm afraid it's going to be a prostitute with Shizun, this is the most expensive money.

She had no choice but to take out the fifty taels again, replaced the twenty taels and came back to lock them back in the cabinet, and rushed downstairs angrily, and saw Song Anrong laying out the rice paper on the big case on the first floor, showing the colors, and drawing on the drawing paper. Zhenshu leaned over and called Dad, Song Anrong turned his head and smiled and asked, "Is Liujiazhuang fun?" ”

Sadashu nodded.

Song Anrong slowly changed his colors and said again: "You have always loved to wander in the mountains, I thought it would take a long time for you to come back." ”

If it weren't for Yu Yichen, she might still be staying in Liujiazhuang, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed when she thought of this.

Song Anrong said again: "When it was really Hanjiahe, Liu Zhang once mentioned that he wanted to make the two families reconcile, but unfortunately I didn't take one more step because I was troublesome, and I was ashamed to get your eldest sister's current field!" ”

At that point, no one took any more steps.

Zhenshu went outside, saw Zhao He fiddling with the wood carvings outside, walked over and asked, "Uncle Zhao, those wood carvings upstairs are very interesting, why don't you color them, let's put them out and sell them?" ”

Zhao He shook his head and said: "Let's be a calligraphy and painting shop, what are you doing?" ”

Zhenshu said: "That's not certain, they take it to give away, and if you give enough calligraphy and paintings, maybe others also like some wood carvings?" ”

Zhao He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try." ”

After all, this framing shop prospered through the hands of Yu Yichen. It doesn't matter what you sell, what matters is that as long as it's something that is framed by the Song family. Zhenshu flipped up the account book that she had been away from the shop for a few days, took the abacus, shook it off on both sides, flattened it, and counted it. Calligraphy and painting, after the New Year, the business will fade down, and it will gradually get better in the second half of the year. It's the off-season, and sometimes the income is only a few taels of silver a day. And Zhenyuan is out with a lot of money, a lot of money for several daughters in the family, and now Zhang Rui has a lot of money after the exam, how can a small framing shop afford such a big expense?

Zhenshu was shaking his head and sighing, when he saw a familiar little guy coming in from outside the door, he stepped forward and bowed: "The little one is a member of the Beishun Hou Mansion, and the fifth lady sent a letter to the third girl in the house." ”

Zhenshu heard that it was for himself, so he hurriedly took it and asked the child if he wanted to eat tea, he waved his hand and stood on the corner of the door and said, "The fifth lady asked the third girl to go to the house immediately, and she waited immediately." ”

Zhenshu took the letter and came out, and saw that there were only a few words: Come quickly, there is something to discuss.

She went into the house to report to Song Anrong, and when she came out, she saw Zhao He standing there and asked, "Who is looking for you?" ”

Zhenshu knew that he must be afraid that he would run to see Yu Yichen again, so he generously spread the letter paper and said: "It is the second sister who is married in the Beishun Hou Mansion, and invited me to come over immediately, I am afraid that there will be an emergency." ”

Zhao He sent it out, and saw that the little girl in the palace was driving in the car, and Zhenyu's maid Huan Jichun was waiting in the car, so he believed it, and watched Zhenshu get in the car and walk away before entering the shop.

Zhenshu just entered Fuyunju, and saw Zhenyu holding the child waiting under the corridor, and when she saw her come in, she greeted her and bowed down and said, "Third sister, I'm really sorry, I have to compensate you for her father." ”

Nan Nan was playing with a drum in Zhenyu's arms, and when she saw Zhenshu's eyes looking at herself, she stretched out the drum to Zhenshu. Zhenshu hugged her over with his hand, the child of more than five months was much more beautiful than the last time I saw her, round and tender like a peach, and there was a trace of saliva at the corner of his mouth.

Zhenyu led Zhenshu into the house and sat down, and personally poured tea for her before saying: "He always likes to pour some yellow soup now, and if he drinks a little, he doesn't know how thick the sky is." ”

Zhenshu still hugged the child and teased, and said sullenly: "The second sister is too indulgent to him, if he is drunk all day long, it is not good for the child to see it." ”

Zhenyu sighed: "Who said it wasn't? When I married him, I just married him for his skin, and after all, I didn't think about his character in detail, and now it is a foregone conclusion, and I can only go on like this. Fortunately, although he is absurd, this man is still in my hands. ”

After she finished speaking, she pointed to An An and said, "Go to the inner courtyard and ask Xianggong to come out, and accompany the third sister." ”

An An answered and went out. Zhenyu asked a few more words about whether Zhenyuan was well or not, whether Zhenxiu was still angry with her and what was going on in the shop at home, and saw Dou Kemingsong walking in wearing a robe. She hurriedly stood up and pushed him over and said, "Hurry up and compensate the third sister." ”

Dou Keming was probably awake today, but he got up early and still looked sleepy and had not washed his face, hugged his fists and said deeply: "I will compensate the third sister, I was wrong that day." ”

Zhenshu didn't look at him, still teasing with Nannan in his arms, and said lightly: "I don't remember anything, but the second brother-in-law should also quit all the alcohol that he doesn't have to drink, and accompany Nannan." ”

Dou Keming nodded and said, "Yes, definitely." ”

Only then did Zhenyu push: "Go and freshen up, look at your rotten eye." ”

Dou Keming stroked his messy hair and went out with his robe. Zhenyu sat down again and asked in Zhenshu's ear, "I heard that Dou Wu said that you have made friends with some very unseemly people now, but is there such a thing?" ”

Zhenshu knew that what she said must be Yu Yichen, but he still pretended not to know and asked, "Who is he talking about?" ”

Zhenyu said: "He said that you were in Liujiazhuang a while ago, and the person you brought with you was a eunuch under Yu Yichen, the chief administrator of the Great Interior, named Mei Xun. ”

Zhenshu shook his head and said: "I don't know who that person is, it's just a friend of Uncle Zhao in my family, because Uncle Zhao had something to do that day, so he asked someone to send me." ”

Zhenyu wanted to believe it or not, but Zhenshu had always been strict, and she couldn't ask. Still persuaded: "Who is that Yu Yichen?" Now the whole court, except for the emperor, everyone hates him, and his teeth itch and want to peel his skin, you have to be careful. ”

Zhenshu shook his head and said, "I really don't know who he is, but since the second sister said so, I am on guard." ”

Zhenyu lamented again: "Now that Yu Yichen has abolished an emperor, and has become a coercive son of heaven to order the princes." When the first emperor died, he left four ministers who took care of his life, and now he also asked him to kill two. The only one left who can still serve in the court is our Hou Ye and Du Guogong, and he can't even see the emperor in front of him. If he doesn't get rid of that person, I'm afraid that our Hou Mansion and Du Guogong's Mansion will also suffer. ”
