59. Fifty-nine
"Miss Shi, please be seated. Summer moon, tea. ”
At first glance, when she heard that Shi Linlin directly handed over the post to visit, Ruxi was still very surprised. In the previous life, the Pu family and the Shi family were closer to each other, and they were related by marriage, and Ru Ji didn't remember that Shi Linlin came to the Pu family to find Ruyan. In this life, due to the internal changes within the Pu family, the contacts between the Pu and Shi families have decreased, but Shi Linlin came to the door, or did she come to find herself?
But when she saw the gift in Shi Linlin's hand and the look on her face, Ruji understood.
"Sister Ruji," Shi Linlin took the tea and took a sip before putting it down, her face full of worry, "I came here today, Sister Tangtu." It's just that I'm really anxious about this matter, and I hope my sister won't blame me. ”
Ru Xi smiled: "Miss Shi is polite." Please tell me directly. ”
Shi Linlin looked at the maids beside Ru Xi and hesitated slightly.
Ru Ji lowered her head and took a sip of the freshly blended autumn pear tea in the white porcelain cup, and said calmly: "These are all trustworthy people, Miss Shi doesn't have to mind." ”
Shi Linlin naturally knew that she was not familiar with Ruxi, not to mention that she was here to ask for help today, so she hesitated for a moment and said, "Since this is the case, then I will say it directly." A few days ago, on the day of my third uncle's promotion banquet, my sister probably heard that my brother went to help explain some of the cases in the Jingzhao Yamen, mainly because the subordinates in the family were not angry, and they didn't know how to collude with the bad guys outside, and they also brought the reputation of the family. Originally, the case had been closed, but the day before yesterday, someone pretended to be my third uncle's name and came to the door to arrest my brother! Now that my third uncle has been ordered to leave Beijing, we didn't expect that the Jingzhao Yamen would dare to bully him. ”
Shi Linlin herself said that she was depressed and full of emotion, but she peeked at Ru Xi eating tea with only a cup in her hand, and she didn't seem to listen to it at all, and she became more and more apprehensive in her heart, but she could only continue to say the words in the back words, "Sister Ru Xi, this matter shouldn't bother my sister, it's just that my father is just an idle job, then Jingzhao Yamen doesn't care about it, the old lady at home has fallen ill in a hurry, and there is no way to ask my sister to come to me, can you talk to the second master of Bofu Xiao and give Jingzhao Yamen a thing or two, Hurry up and get my brother back, he's really not a bad guy. ”
Ru Ji had already guessed that this was the case when she saw her gift, but everyone came, and it was too rude to refuse it. Listening to how she could say this matter upside down while drinking tea is also a long insight. Just heard the last sentence, "He's really not a bad person", Ru Xi almost squirted out the half of the autumn pear tea in her mouth, thinking to herself, Miss Shi, you are too modest.
"Miss Shi, I never ask about the official affairs in the yamen outside." Ru Ji originally wanted to say that she was not familiar with Yan Xiao, so she just pushed it directly, but after thinking about it, maybe this word would reach Chi's ears, so she changed the conversation, "Although Second Brother Xiao loves me as a cousin, he can't bend the law for personal gain because of my words." I really can't open this mouth, and I hope Miss Shi will forgive me. ”
Shi Linlin, as a concubine, eats like this in the Shi family, and is naturally a person with transparent eyebrows and flexible thoughts. Listening to Ruji's repeated calls of "Miss Shi", it clearly means that we are not familiar with each other and have not had enough friendship, and Shi Linlin is also very depressed in her heart. But the gate of Huan Ningbo's Mansion does not allow the Shi family to enter at all, and the gifts are resolutely not accepted, which is even more difficult to accommodate than the Jingzhao Yamen itself, which is really no way to ask for Ruji.
"Sister Ruji," Shi Linlin continued to laugh, "Of course it's not okay to bend the law for personal gain, but we have been friends for so many years, and we all know the roots." It's his fault that my brother didn't restrain his subordinates, but he also suffered from being kind and soft-hearted, so that his subordinates were blinded, and where could those things be planted on him. This time, maybe the third uncle offended someone, and the family came to the house. Sister Ruji, you are the granddaughter of your uncle, just a word of things, Second Master Xiao will definitely listen, good sister, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, you can help. Our whole family, everyone misses my sister's good. ”
Ru Ji smiled secretly in her heart, everyone misses me? If you know that the biggest driver of Shi Zhonglang's entry into the yamen this time is me, I'm afraid that everyone will want to swallow me alive, right?
"Miss Shi, if Brother Ling is innocent, it will be fine if he wants to come and talk about it in the yamen. Isn't Lord Jing Zhaoyin a little bit of a fair name in judging cases? Ru Xi motioned to pick a handful of pine nuts to change the tea, took another handful of pine nuts and slowly peeled them, and politely pushed the tea fruit plate in the direction of Shi Linlin.
Where can Shi Linlin still eat snacks: "Sister Ruji, who can say clearly what is going on in the yamen." My third uncle is now in such a high official position, some people in the court can't look at him and are jealous of him, and there are also people who want to deal with our family. ”
Ruji lowered her head and peeled pine nuts, completely unmoved: "Well, that's the same." ”
Isn't that the same as not saying it? Shi Linlin became more and more anxious and kept pleading, but there was nothing new in saying it. It is nothing more than Shi Zhonglang wronged, Shi Jiashu is a big move, if he can help, he will be thanked.
Ru Xi casually played Tai Chi to deal with it, and she couldn't help but vaguely think of the previous two lives, the original owner Ru Xi lived in the Shi family every step of the way, either she was snubbed by her husband, or she was disliked by her elders, and every time she talked to Shi Linlin, the sister-in-law, and begged for pleading, it was about the same as today's scene, but the position was reversed. At that time, Ru Xi Wan was sincere, and Shi Linlin drank tea and ate snacks, and she had to mix some sarcastic and critical words in her heart.
In this life, Ruxi didn't have any intention of retaliating against Shi Linlin, after all, Shi Linlin was just unfriendly, and she didn't really murder the original owner. Compared to the Pu Yuchi family, or the two scumbags of the Shi family, this unfriendliness is nothing. It's just that unconsciously, the flow of three lives, and between the chaos and the chaos, there is this scene of feng shui rotation.
Seeing that she had finished eating three teas, Ru Xi felt a little tired and panicked, Shi Linlin finally fully confirmed that Ru Xi had no intention of helping, so she took out another letter: "Since Sister Ru Xi really doesn't want to touch her hands, she won't be reluctant." This letter is given to you. ”
Ru Ji knew whose it was when she looked at the bamboo leaf paper on the cover, and immediately waved her hand and said: "Miss Shi has something to say, I don't dare to accept this letterhead of unknown origin, and I hope to forgive me." ”
Shi Linlin only said that she was pretending to be reserved, sneering in her heart, but her face was not obvious, she only got up directly and said: "I have been bothering my sister for a long time today, so I will leave first." ”
"Stone girl." Ru Xi's face sank, and motioned Xia Yue to step forward and take the letter back to Shi Linlin, and she didn't even touch it, "You are a guest at the door, and you still want to keep the etiquette yourself, please take this letter away." ”
Shi Linlin had been begging for Shi Zhonglang's matter, but she had been angry for a long time and had accumulated resentment, and at this moment, seeing that Ru Xi's voice and tone were a little harsh, her face was even more unbearable, she glanced at the letter in Xia Yue's hand, and then looked at Ru Xi: "He is so bitter, even if his sister refuses, he can reply to a letter in the past, how can he be so ruthless?" ”
If she laughs angrily, Shi Renlang is affectionate, is it possible that she must repay it with affection? What kind of logic is this?
"I don't write a word, and I don't want to read it, that's the biggest rejection." Ru Xi said lightly, "Xia Yue, give that letter to Miss Shi." ”
Seeing that Xia Yue was already about to be forced over, Shi Linlin's face turned red with anger, snatched it with her hand, and glanced at Ruxi coldly: "Baba's purse was sent at the beginning, but now he turns his face and doesn't recognize people?" Sure enough, this is not the same as it used to be. Then we'll see! With that, he turned around and shook his hand and walked away quickly.
Sending a purse?
Ru Xi's heart was slightly shocked, and the vague fragments before seemed to be trying to spell out some answers, but Shi Linlin walked very fast under shame and anger, and Ru Xi didn't want to force her back to ask, so that's it.
