Chapter 1: Grounding

Next Chapter

It has been snowing for three days and three nights, and the snow has illuminated the night as if it were day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The plum blossoms in Qingmei Curie are blooming brightly at the moment, and the snow pressed on the branches is sandwiching the plum blossoms, which is really intoxicating beauty.

Shen Jingshu, the fourth lady of the Shen family, leaned lazily on the wooden kang in the warm pavilion, and the "Four Books of Women" was placed on the brocade next to her.

The maid Ling'er added some jasmine incense tablets to the incense burner, walked to the wooden kang and gently draped a tiger skin blanket on Shen Jingshu.

Shen Jingshu wrapped the blanket around her body, closed her eyes, and asked Ling'er lazily: "Is there any news from the eldest lady?" ”

Ling'er paused, and finally replied to Shen Jingshu's words: "Not yet...... I'm afraid that there have been too many trivial matters in the house recently, and the eldest lady forgot about your grounding for a while. ”

Yes, the fourth young lady was grounded, and this was the first one among all the young ladies and young masters, so soon the whole mansion exploded. The fourth lady, who has always been docile and decent, actually angered the eldest lady and was grounded, which is really rare.

"Yes, I see." Shen Jingshu's face was calm, as if she already knew the answer in her heart.

The identity of the concubine in the previous life has made Shen Jingshu suffer a lot and taste all the sadness. The second sister led someone to pour poison into her mouth mercilessly, and the eldest lady of the grandmother said "burn this place on fire" to make her call the heavens and the earth. It's just that God's mercy allowed her to be reborn, so in this life, she didn't want to be as submissive as herself in her previous life, and she endured everything, and finally ended up with no bones.

What is karma knowing? I don't know? I'll let you know!

"Fifth aunt, you have been there, I can't get out, you have to take care of it." Shen Jingshu asked again.

"It's been done a long time ago, Miss can rest assured." Ling'er is the eldest girl in Shen Jingshu's room, she has always been clever and loyal, and she knows her young lady's mind well, so she naturally has already done things thoroughly. The fifth aunt in Shen Jingshu's mouth is her biological mother Feng, originally from Pingzhou, and her ancestors were local rice merchants. The later daughter Shen Jingshu, called the fourth lady, a son died early, the pain of losing a child made her a little crazy, sometimes good and sometimes bad, naturally she was also invisible to the people in the house, and she lost the appearance of a master.

Shen Jingshu thought about her biological mother's fifth aunt, and her heart became more and more depressed, and it was just a matter of being a concubine, her biological mother was like this now, and she had to live her life carefully.

No, it's going to have to be like a fish in water.

"Bang bang bang" The door was knocked on urgently, and the straight church panicked.

Ling'er hurriedly went out to take a look, and muttered in her heart who was so short-sighted. Shen Jingshu also got up and put on a cloak and followed out, and said as she walked: "There have always been few people coming to this courtyard, I'm afraid that something has happened to send someone to notify me." ”

Before they could walk out of the inner courtyard, they heard Cui'er in the outer courtyard say to the visitor: "Third young master? When did you come back? Is it cold? It's just that it's getting late, you're a man......"

Without waiting for Cui'er to finish speaking, the third young master Shen Wenyu stopped and said, "Although I am a man, I am not an outsider, so why can't I enter the hospital." ”

The third young master Shen Wenyu is the only son of the eldest wife, because the men and women in the family are ranked separately, although Shen Wenyu ranks third among the men in the family, calling the third young master, he is half a year younger than Shen Jingshu who calls the fourth lady.

Shen Jingshu smiled lightly, Shen Wenyu had already entered the courtyard, and Cui'er behind him followed closely, but he didn't dare to step forward to stop him.

Shen Wenyu didn't know how many times he had done this kind of thing, he had always thought that his brothers and sisters should not abide by this broken rule, and they all seemed estranged.

Shen Jingshu waved her hand to let Cui'er go down, and when Cui'er retreated, she looked at Ling'er and couldn't help but be secretly unhappy.

is also a maid, but she is indeed a little maid, unlike Ling'er is not only a big girl, but also a big maid who accompanies the room, and now she is accompanying the fourth lady, if she is assigned to serve the young masters at home one day, with her appearance and appearance, she will become a girl with an open face, and fly on the branch as a phoenix.

Originally, there were two first-class maids in Shen Jingshu's room like the other sisters, but one of them was released from the mansion when she was old enough to marry someone, and at that time, Cui'er thought that she would fill this gap if she was diligent and lisley, but she hadn't been promoted for two months, and she was really annoyed. I also thought that Shen Jingshu treated Ling'er like a sister on weekdays, but she was just the usual attitude of the master to her subordinates, and she also had a grudge against Shen Jingshu.

If the fourth lady went to the housekeeper and said that it was a matter of minutes for her to be promoted to a first-class girl, it can be seen that she did not mention it, it is really hateful, and she has been blind all these years of serving her wholeheartedly.

Over there, Shen Jingshu and they had already entered the warm pavilion in the house, Shen Wenyu was dressed in a dark purple suit, covered with a ruyi cloud brocade feather satin cloak, and a thin layer of snow fell on his body, Ling'er helped him untie the cloak, and before he untied it, he hurriedly said to Shen Jingshu: "I am afraid that my mother will embarrass you these days when I am not in the house, and now that I have come back, as soon as I enter the door, I heard the news that you were grounded, and I asked the reason that everyone became dumb." ”

Ling'er hung up the cloak and brought ginger soup to warm Shen Wenyu's body. Shen Wenyu said: "It's still Ling'er who is good to me." Then he continued to Shen Jingshu: "My sister has been wronged by my mother, so I will listen to it, so I can go and intercede for my sister." ”

Shen Jingshu has not seen this younger brother for several months, Shen Wenyu has been studying abroad for these months, and when he looks at it carefully, he feels that he has lost a lot of weight, and he has suffered a lot outside regularly, and he must have eaten and drunk well in the house, unlike the coarse tea and light food outside, and there is no one to take care of his daily life.

In this mansion, this younger brother treats her most sincerely, but Shen Wenyu is the only son of the eldest wife, and she knows that Shen Wenyu must have received a lot of scolding from the eldest lady if she treats her well. Every time I think about it, I feel sorry for this younger brother.

Although Shen Wenyu is only half a year younger than Shen Jingshu, he is also a younger brother, but Shen Wenyu has always been worried about her in this mansion. Sometimes Shen Wenyu also joked that she might as well change the two of them, and let Shen Jingshu call her brother, so that he felt that he would be more motivated to take care of Shen Jingshu.

Shen Jingshu picked up the Jinpa in her hand and wiped the snow on Shen Wenyu's face, and said, "What grievances can I have, it is true that I made a mistake, and I should be punished." ”

Shen Wenyu looked at Shen Jingshu, and saw that Shen Jingshu's face was quiet without the slightest expression, it was too quiet, which made Shen Wenyu suspicious.

I saw Shen Wenyu slam the cup in his hand towards the table, got up and walked out of the house, and said in his mouth: "Hmph, it must be your mother who bullied you, I'll go to find her." ”

Shen Jingshu and Ling'er hurriedly pulled him left and right, and Shen Wenyu was still struggling to push them away.

Shen Jingshu said: "You see that I have never been beaten or scolded, I am just grounded, why should you hurt my mother for this little thing." ”

Ling'er also said: "That's it, third young master, you went to argue with the eldest lady for the sake of the young lady like this, I am afraid that the young lady's grounding will not be lifted, but the eldest lady will not be treated to my young lady in her heart." ”

After Ling'er finished speaking, Shen Wenyu quieted down and said to Ling'er: "Ling'er, I listen to you." ”

After Shen Wenyu sat down again, Shen Jingshu said: "That's it, you know that my mother has always disliked me, and I will be punished if I am punished, so that I can't let you go to my mother to be scolded again." You've just come back, but you should go to your mother's first. ”

As soon as Shen Wenyu entered the house just now, he said that he would know about her being grounded as soon as he came back, and then he was going to the eldest lady to ask for the guilt again, and he was afraid that he hadn't gone to the eldest lady since he came back.

"Nope." Shen Wenyu replied, his tone was a little lonely, and then asked Shen Jingshu: "Why was my sister grounded?" ”

Shen Jingshu thought to herself, if Shen Wenyu knew about this, he would definitely think that this was a trivial matter of sesame seeds and went to the eldest lady to make trouble, but in the eldest lady, this matter was like Shen Jingshu slapping her, making her lose face. It's better not to say it.

"One thing that my sister will blame herself for, I won't tell you, the sister of the province is embarrassed by you, you arrived at home so late, and you are tired, go and report to your mother that you are safe and rest."

Shen Wenyu pursed his lips, a little unhappy, not that he didn't think that Shen Jingshu was unwilling to tell him about it, anyway, being grounded was not a big punishment, not to mention that Shen Jingshu could move freely in the courtyard, not that he couldn't take half a step in the opinion room, but he felt that Shen Jingshu didn't see him for months but didn't leave him to talk.

Shen Jingshu saw Shen Wenyu's thoughts, and coaxed: "It's not that I don't want to talk to you more, look at when it's getting dark, I'm grounded, you came here first, if your mother knew about it, she would be angry, not to mention leaving you more time to chat, wouldn't it make you and me suffer." ”

Shen Wenyu thought that what Shen Jingshu said was reasonable, and he was also careless, he hadn't seen his mother for so long, and it was indeed inappropriate to come to Qingmeiju in a hurry as soon as he came back, so he cared about Shen Jingshu for a few words, and then asked Ling'er for some words and went back.

Soon, Cui'er's gentle and delicate voice came from outside the house: "Is the third young master cold?" You can wear more clothes when you go back. The third young master has lost weight, but he has to make up for it, and the road is slippery in the snow, and you have to walk slowly. Warm up with plenty of hot soup and don't freeze. ”

During this period, I didn't hear a word from Shen Wenyu and Cui'er.

Shen Jingshu and Ling'er listened to it, although they both knew it in their hearts, but they didn't say it clearly, so they glanced at each other, and after Ling'er was done, she served Shen Jingshu to sleep.

Ling'er was also about to fall asleep in the warm pavilion, only to listen to Shen Jingshu next door, and said, "This prince is still so reckless in temperament. ”

Although Shen Wenyu was crowned the prince at the age of ten, he didn't like people to call him the prince of the world, and there was a reason for this.

Two years ago, the Hou Ye was not yet entitled, known as Shen Lao, Shen Fu was a rich businessman in Kyoto, the emperor at that time was mediocre and immoral, and the Kang prince was wise and decisive, and sympathetic to the suffering of the people, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Hou Ying Wang Ye launched a palace mutiny to usurp the throne, it is even more absurd, was sent to garrison the border of the Kang prince to launch a mutiny, but did not expect to recruit traitors to be trapped in the Red Mountain grain and grass exhausted, fortunately the Yongda general strategy to rescue it, but unexpectedly the vitality was greatly injured, most of the soldiers defected, and finally even recruited troops and horses did not have the silver, and finally heard the Yongda general into the words to save Yu Shen Lao, although the situation was the disadvantage of Kang Wangye, but the emperor was mediocre and the number must be exhausted, Kang Wangye has the courage and strategy to ascend to the great treasure is a matter of time, In the end, Lord Shen donated most of his family property to help Prince Kang recruit troops and buy horses, and after Prince Kang ascended the throne for more than half a month, Lord Shen was sealed and waited for peace, without money, and more than half a month, General Yongda died suddenly in the military tent, and the cause of his death is different, but in the end it is also attributed to the first emperor Yu Dang.

Shen Wenyu was greedy to hide under his grandmother when he was a child, and when he saw his grandmother reprimanding his father, he heard his grandmother whisper cautiously: "General Nayong is a heroic martyr, with great military achievements, and he relieves the people from fire and water, but because you have an old relationship with the fifth aunt, you exchanged General Yongda's life for you to help the emperor recruit troops and buy horses, and General Yongda was able to ascend to the throne for the people and Prince Kang, who was not the emperor at that time, and completely forgot about the fact that you forcibly carried the fifth aunt too far into the door, but you are a villain and a chicken intestine to do this thing that ignores your conscience and is indignant......"

Shen Wenyu couldn't hear the words after that, and then he was named the son of the world, and he was extremely disgusted with this title, and outsiders called him the son of the world, and he couldn't say anything, but he had never allowed his family to call him like this, and he always felt that the title of the Marquis of Ping'an was obtained by his father stepping on the corpse of General Yongda.

After a few years, he told Shen Jingshu about this matter, and Shen Jingshu let him rot this matter into his stomach from then on, Shen Wenyu didn't understand the importance of this matter, but he was depressed in his heart, and he didn't want to say it so much.

Shen Jingshu was worried for a long time, this matter spread from her grandmother to Shen Wenyu's ears, and Shen Wenyu told her again, so who told her grandmother, grandmother is righteous, she will never let her father do such a foolish thing, then her father will not tell her grandmother, there must be someone who knows about it, but she doesn't know who it is.

However, this incident made her understand why the fifth aunt was always cold to her father, and it turned out that the fifth aunt's heart was General Yongda. Shen Jingshu thought that her biological mother was also a hard-working person, and now her appearance is even more pitiful.

And today, Shen Wenyu was so impulsive to find the eldest lady for Shen Jingshu to theorize, Shen Jingshu remembered the impulse when Shen Wenyu informed him at this time, and Shen Jingshu was so frightened that she quickly covered his mouth.

Now, this younger brother is still so reckless, but fortunately he has a kind heart, which is not like his father, but it makes Shen Jingshu feel a lot more relieved.
