Chapter 43: Forty-three

The payment of the incense bronzing post is still Shi Linlin, and the reason for inviting Ruxi this time is one of the most classic excuses of the official Miss Flower Club, the Poetry Society.

Briefly recalling, Ru Xi doesn't remember Shi Linlin's poetry. But that's not the point, Ruji didn't have any interest in dealing with the Shi family, so she casually threw the post away.

As for the small gift that came in with the post, Cai Wan opened it and saw the box, and he looked disgusted: "Girl, I'm afraid this gift was not given by Miss Shi." ”

Ruji took it and looked at it, and her face turned green.

The light green bamboo leaf pattern of the flat long brocade box, the lower right corner with dark green thread embroidered with a very small character. Inside the box is a row of bamboo branch lake pens, which should be from Bao Moxuan, who has a rather elegant reputation. This gift is not light or heavy, but it is just right to say that it is elegant. It's just that the barrel of the pen is also engraved with a small dark mark like the box.

This is clearly Shi Renlang's thing!

Among the children of the Shi family, when it comes to reading, Shi Renlang is actually okay. Regardless of the first or second life, Shi Renlang will end next year, and he will be in the second class and twenty-eight Jinshi. Although he only received an idle position later, he was also an official in the serious examination. Especially compared with Shi Zhonglang, the cousin of the big house who eats, drinks and prostitutes, it is even more promising.

Shi Renlang is delicate in appearance, and he is also elegant in his actions, and the literati leave their names and engrave them. If Ru Xi accepted the box of lake pens as Shi Linlin's intentions, once someone turned out the note with Shi Renlang in the future, it would no longer be clear.

But Ru Ji can't turn her face, if she really asks the past, Shi Linlin just needs to say: "This is the lake pen I got from my brother, and I will send it to Miss Pu." "Sell a cute, it's over, it seems that you are rude and don't say it, and you can't explain the fact that you can recognize Shi Renlang's watch.

When it comes to hatred for Shi Renlang, Cai Wan is obviously better than Ru Ji: "Girl, that bad guy actually dares to send something over!" ”

Ru Ji held the brocade box and was silent.

Cai Wan couldn't help but be a little anxious, seeing that there was no one else in the room at this time, she turned around and closed the doors and windows again, and whispered to Ruji: "Girl, is it still for that person...... Are you still soft-hearted? ”

Ruji waved her hand: "And let me be quiet." ”

Nostalgia for Shi Renlang? See what a joke!

But the original owner's memories of Shi Renlang are really a lot. Reminiscing about those past events is like rewatching a long and sad Korean drama. For an avid American drama fan like Ru Xi, browsing such memories is enough in itself, and when it comes to the part where she is dismissed in the later part, Ru Xi is really full of the classic expression of the roaring sect leader - I really feel like I'm going to suffocate!

Sitting there and reminiscing carefully for a while, I felt like I was forced to review before taking the film elective exam.

What's even stronger is the strong emotion in the second life of the original owner, Ruji, who really loved back then. Not only Ruji, maybe the young Shi Renlang also used to have a little bit of sincere emotion.

It's just that for the king's one-day grace, he has been a concubine for a hundred years.

The sincerity of the scumbag, it is difficult to say whether there is or not, it all depends on how to define it. It seems that today I walked into a restaurant and wanted to eat steak rice, and that eager sincerity was more real than real gold, but at this moment there was a strong emotion and desire. Hope does not mean long-term love and loyalty.

After all, a scumbag is still not a scumbag, and what he looks at is his character.

In modern society, it may be said that it is not bad to have one. However, in a period when men were inferior to women and women's fame was greater, the fate of the vast majority of people was still determined by marriage. lost her husband's heart, even if she didn't abandon her like a bitter concubine, there were countless women who broke off before they were old, and sat in a smoked cage until Ming.

Sighing for a while the original owner's sadness and blood in the second life, Ru Xi raised her head and handed the box of lake pens to Cai Wan: "Return it to the Shi family, saying that I can't do poetry and can't participate in the poetry club." ”

At this time, Xiancao's voice sounded outside: "Girl, Sister Shuangying is here." ”

The day before yesterday, when Ruxi negotiated with the Chi family to negotiate with the dignitaries, the two clever and loyal little girls of the fairy grass and Lingzhi also had to come back, and as for the blue picking, it was packaged and returned to the Chi family, and now the moon dew residence is more and more clean and tidy.

Shuangying is the most generous one among the maids in the main house, and the only one in his previous life who has secretly taken care of Ruji. Although it doesn't have a big impact on Ruxi's fate, but in the end, it's a bit of warmth in a desperate situation, and because of this memory, Ruxi also has a special affection for Shuangying.

"Please come in." Ru Xi nodded to Cai Yun, and Cai Wan put away the lake pen before opening the door.

Shuangying entered the door and was blessed: "Big girl, Mrs. asked, do you want to go to the Shi family's poetry club flower club?" If you go, you will take care of the second and third girls. ”

Ru Xi saw that the clothes on Shuangying's body were much simpler, and even the broken earrings were removed, thinking that Chi's was really scraping the ground to pay off the debt. On the other hand, even the clothes and jewelry on the maids are from Yan Wei's dowry, so what has Pu Yu's talented man done all these years to sit and eat like this?

"I can't write poetry books, so I still won't go." Ru Ji is very honest in what she said. Although I have practiced calligraphy before crossing, I still can't write well with the hairpin flower or something like the ancients. Not to mention poetry, I have read a lot, but there are not many who can memorize the full text word for word, let alone write poetry.

Shuangying was a little embarrassed: "Big girl, the master said that if you can go, you should go." Because this is a great event for General He Shi's promotion, even the girls of the Yan family will go, and the post of the girls of the Shi family is just a fun reason for a small flower banquet. ”

General Shi Ben was promoted? Ru Xi suddenly thought of Su San Niangzi, and she was a little more curious about General Shi Ben.

If the daughter of the Yan family will go, she might as well take a trip.

Now the Yan family supports themselves, not because they really have much affection for the late Yan Wei, but more for the reputation and face of the Yan family. After all, Mrs. Bo's dislike for the concubine is clear, and Ruji's own uncle Yan Yan was transferred out of Beijing last month, just like in his previous life.

This is also the reason why Ruji will never consider taking refuge in the Yan family.

The cousin girl who lives in a wealthy family, whether she is in love with a blood relative within three generations or not, generally relies on the mercy of the old lady to settle down in the mansion. Occasionally, there are also those who are not treated by the old lady, but their own uncle is powerful, but Ruji obviously does not meet it.

The most important thing in being a person and doing things is to look at your eyes. In the big picture, it is to judge the situation, and in the small way, it is to be informed and interesting.

Ruji wants to make friends with Yan Xuan and Ming Lu Ying, but it is not convenient to go to Bofu more. So in addition to expressing sincere gratitude with gifts, that is, you can meet at a third-party party.

"I see, wait until I think about it." Ru Ji didn't agree immediately, but gave Cai Wan a look.

Cai Wan understood, so he stepped forward and stuffed a small purse into Shuangying's hand: "Sister Shuangying has worked hard." If there are any difficulties in the future, you can come to Yueluju to say something. ”

The two warblers knew that there was a whole piece of silver in the purse, and there must be more than one or two. Recalling the last time I sent autumn and winter clothes, that is, a month ago, the eldest girl also asked Cai Wan to stuff a purse, and the dozens of copper coins in it were already the eldest girl's efforts to support them, with some flattering meaning. And now, the Pu family has completely changed, and this reward is the real reward.

Shuangying sighed and thanked in her heart, and said to Ruyi: "Thank you, big girl." The slave went back first. ”

When Shuangying left, Cai Wan was still a little worried: "Girl, Miss Shi is just afraid that she has no kindness." The wife and the second wife of the Shi family are all like this, maybe there will be some traps, so don't go. ”

Ru Xi groaned: "There are only a thousand years to be a thief, and there is no thousand years to prevent thieves, how can you not go out because you are afraid of traps." Wait a minute, talk to Chaolu, and ask Sister Xuan and her second cousin if they are going to Shi's house. If they go, I'll go. If they dare to use the means in their wives, they will dig their own graves. ”

It is not unexpected, Bofu quickly replied to the news, General Shi Ben returned to Beijing this time to report on his work and won the commendation of the edict, and was promoted from General Zheng Erpin Zuo to General Congyi Dingyuan, Yan Heng will personally congratulate, almost the younger generation of Yan Mansion will go, and Ming Luying and Yan Xuan will naturally go.

At the same time, Ru Ji also understood why the Chi family wanted to take care of Ruyan Rushu by herself, because the Shi family's post was not given to Pu Yu and the Chi family. The rebuke of the Hanlin Academy, the actions of the Jingzhao Yamen, there are still some rumors.

Shi Linlin's post was sent to Yueluju, probably because Ruxi is the granddaughter of the Yan family, and the face is not for the Pu family. However, Ruyan seems to have a good relationship with Shi Linlin, so she also received an invitation. Rushu is younger, even if there is no separate post, as long as she follows her sister, no one cares.

Ru Ji really didn't want to take care of it, but now the Pu family, who was rapidly cutting down on daily expenses and pressing expenses, only had one carriage, and they had to go with the car if they wanted to or not. Fortunately, Ruyan didn't talk much, and Rushu was also a little jealous in front of her sister, so she praised Ruyan's clothes and accessories for a few sentences, and didn't make too much noise, so she went all the way to Shi's house safely.

Although Pu Yu was not invited, the congratulatory gift was still to be given. Ru Ji, as the eldest daughter of the Pu family, although she did not come on behalf of her father, she had to give a salute to General Shi Ben and then go to the female dependents.

I thought it was just a matter of following Yan Xuan and other peers to take a look together, but who knew that General Shi Ben actually stopped Ru Xi with his mouth: "Wait a minute, whose girl are you from?" ”

Ruji's heart jumped suddenly, could it be that on the day of "Locust Tree Dong", General Shi still saw his face?
