Chapter 230: Returning to the Gate (1st Update)
The carriage stopped in front of the Shen Mansion, and Shen Junru and Mrs. Shen had already come out of the door, watching Qi Mingrui help Shen Ruohua get out of the carriage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Shen Junru looked at the tall and cold Qi Mingrui to Shen Ruohua's gentleness and meticulousness, smiled with crooked eyebrows, and told the little servant to clean up his study, and he would talk to Qi Mingrui about tea in a while.
Mrs. Shen glanced at him complainingly, smiled and walked forward quickly and said to Shen Ruohua and Qi Mingrui: "Come into the mansion, it's sunny outside, don't get sunburned." Without waiting for Shen Junru to say more, he led Shen Ruohua and Qi Mingrui into the mansion quickly.
It was already the season of the fire in June, although it was still morning, it was already unbearable, the sunlight leaked from the shade of the trees, and fell on the bluestone road in the Shen Mansion, Shen Junru smiled and talked to Qi Mingrui while walking, Mrs. Shen and Shen Ruohua walked together, Shen Ruohua took the next step, pursed her lips and smiled and followed behind Mrs. Shen, who could not hide her joy.
"...... "Zhuzi's Art of War" has more than 20 kinds of annotations, go to my study in a while, and I will talk to you about it!" When Shen Junru and Qi Mingrui talked about the rise, they didn't care about Mrs. Shen's eyes, and laughed loudly, "I have the Mingqian Longjing that I just got there, let's taste it together." ā
Mrs. Shen threw over a cool sentence: "There is also a jar of old flower carvings hidden, let someone send it over yesterday." ā
Shen Junru's old face flushed slightly, and he looked at Mrs. Shen with a little embarrassment: "Madam is really discerning, I'm just ...... It's just that I thought that Mingrui and they were back, so it's rare to have a little fun. ā
Mrs. Shen waved her hand helplessly: "That's it, you save a little, but you have prepared a lot of dishes and good wine for a while, which is much stronger than your flower carving." ā
Shen Junru nodded hurriedly: "What Madam said is, let's have a few drinks first." ā
Qi Mingrui couldn't help laughing when he saw it, and arched his hand and said: "Lord Taishan commands, and the son-in-law should accompany him." ā
Watching them walk towards the study, Mrs. Shen shook her head helplessly: "Your father is still such a character, he used to suffer a lot in Baoding Mansion, otherwise he would not have been implicated in the matter of King Hui, he was locked up in Dali Temple for so long, and now in Kyoto, the situation is even more complicated, but he is still like this, which really worries me." She no longer regards Shen Ruohua as an outsider, but really treats her as Shen, and tells her the deepest worries in her heart.
Shen Ruohua took a step forward, gently held her hand, and walked slowly: "Mother doesn't have to worry, my father has great wisdom in his chest, and if he can understand the relationship here, nothing will happen." ā
Mrs. Shen sighed and patted her hand: "I just hope that our family is safe and sound now." "In the treacherous and changeable court, I don't seek wealth and wealth, but only peace.
Qi Mingrui and Shen Ruohua came early, and there was still a long time before dinner, Shen Ruohua accompanied Mrs. Shen to do needlework in the room, talking, Shen Ziyun was fiddling with a bamboo windmill on the side, but it was a rare time to be quiet.
āā¦ā¦ How are you being treated in the house over there? Did your mother-in-law embarrass you? Mrs. Shen remembered what Fu had said when she came to the mansion before, and she became worried for a while, and asked bluntly.
Shen Ruohua smiled and shook his head: "No, I just got married, and I am not the head of the house, so I have no conflict with her." ā
Mrs. Shen said angrily: "I'm afraid that even if you don't compete with her for money, she may not be willing to give up." "Shen Ruohua is not an ordinary bride, she is a first-class female doctor, she is a first-class lady of the imperial seal, the Fu family will inevitably be afraid of her, and she can't tolerate such a wife who can help Qi Mingrui get the value of the palace.
Shen Ruohua took the small clothes that Mrs. Shen made for Shen Ziyun and sewed them stitch by stitch, and said nonchalantly: "Mother, don't worry, she can't do anything with me for the time being." "With Mrs. Qi and Qi Mingrui, Fu has to weigh what he wants. Her mind was not on this, but thinking about the marriage between the Dongping Mansion and the Xinguo Mansion on the second day, and the Fu family was going to take her there, I don't know what the situation would be.
Hearing her talk about this, Mrs. Shen no longer mentioned the matter of the British Mansion: "We also got a post in the mansion, and your father and I were very surprised, after all, we have only been in Beijing for a short time, and we have nothing to do with the Dongping Mansion and the Xinguo Mansion, so we were also invited." While making shoes for Shen Junru, she said: "I heard that the Dongping Royal Mansion held a feast for this marriage, and invited all the noble mansions in Kyoto, and even the royal mansions of the clan also received posts. I also discussed with your father for a long time, and then I thought of the congratulatory ceremony to be sent, which would not be too expensive to make people think that our house was going to be handed over to the vassal king, and it would not be too thin for people to look down on. ā
Mrs. Shen shook her head when she said this: "Kyoto is much more complicated than Baoding Mansion, and if you are not careful, you will offend people." ā
Shen Ruohua couldn't help frowning, he couldn't imagine that the Dongping Mansion actually attached so much importance to this wedding, and gave a post to all the clans and nobles in Kyoto, which is very different from the attitude of the Dongping Mansion to keep a low profile, and the attitude of the Xinguo Mansion is very different, it seems that there is some reluctance to conclude this family business, at the beginning, the Duchess of Xinguo was full of expectations to say this family business, and now what is it for?
She was a little distracted, Mrs. Shen looked at her stunned appearance, thinking that she was afraid that it would be too late to go back, and she would make it difficult for Fu Shi, and instructed the girl: "Go and see if the food is ready, if it is ready, go to the study and invite the master and aunt to come over for dinner." ā
Turning his head and Shen Ruohua said: "Don't do it, this is weird, I also use it to pass the time on weekdays, where to take it seriously." ā
Shen Ruohua came back to her senses, looked down at the small clothes in her hand with a smile, and said with a smile: "I was thinking about making a few robes for Ziyun, but my work is not very good, so my mother doesn't dislike it." ā
Mrs. Shen smiled: "You should make a few sets of robes for Mingrui." Speaking of this, she lowered her voice and said, "You have a lot of things to do on weekdays, but you still have to do it yourself. ā
Shen Ruohua was stunned, smiled and nodded.
After eating, Shen Junru still wanted to keep Qi Mingrui and talk about the art of war and government affairs, but Mrs. Shen glared at her, and she didn't dare to say more, so she could only look at them with a smile. Mrs. Shen said to the two of them: "It's not too early, so I won't keep you anymore, go back early." After a pause, he said: "Tomorrow, the master and I will also go to the Dongping Palace, and we will see you then." ā
Qi Mingrui bowed down to say goodbye to Shen Junru and Mrs. Shen, Shen Ruohua bent his knees, clearly saw the reluctance in Mrs. Shen's eyes, and his heart was even warmer, and he said goodbye to them softly, and then got into the carriage with Qi Mingrui and left the Shen family.
It's just that as soon as he got into the carriage, Qi Mingrui's face turned pale, and he said to Shen Ruohua in a deep voice: "Lord Yuezhang said that the horse market is about to open, but the emperor has not returned to the palace, and the queen mother has not returned, but he has just asked people to bring an edict back, and ordered King Rong to preside, and even the envoys of Goryeo and Wara have not seen it, so it was hastily disposed of." ā
