Chapter 43: Master and Servant Meet
There was a bang, as if something had been knocked over in the room, and then a familiar voice: "Miss." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The old man still wanted to stop him at this time, but Shen Ningxuan grabbed him by the collar and scolded angrily: "Shen Xiu is obviously here, you dare to deceive us." ”
Su Yichen didn't care about finding the old man's theory, and while he was restrained by Shen Ningxuan, he directly pushed open the courtyard door and broke inside, only to see the door squeak open, and a woman came out of it, who else could it be if it wasn't Shen Xiu. Shen Xiu was wearing a set of blue coarse cloth dresses that had been washed, her face was slightly puffy, and when she saw her, she was so excited that she laughed with tears in her eyes, and called out in a trembling voice: "Miss, you finally came out." ”
The old man gave up stupidly, and Shen Xiu welcomed the two into the house. Su Yichen looked around, the light in the room was dim, except for a few old wooden furniture, there was no decent and valuable item, her heart was full of feelings, Shen Xiu served her and her mother for many years, and finally married a wife, but her life was so poor. Shen Ningxuan also didn't expect that his mother would marry Shen Xiu to such a family, if his father knew about it, I am afraid it would be inappropriate.
Shen Xiu rubbed his hands and went to pour tea, and Su Yichen realized that Shen Xiu's lower abdomen was slightly bulging, and she seemed to be pregnant. She hurriedly pulled Shen Xiu to sit down, and made an excuse to send Shen Ningxuan out, Fang asked, "Xiuniang, who is that old man?" How are you doing? ”
Shen Xiu's eyes immediately turned red, and she still smiled and comforted her: "That's the slave and maid Weng Cao Da." The slave and maid are doing well, but the young lady must have suffered a lot, and your hands are calloused, does the eldest lady treat you badly? As soon as the slave maid returned to the house that day, she heard that someone from the palace had summoned you into the palace, and the slave and maid waited for you for many days and did not see you come back, and the slave and maid went to beg the lady, and the lady said that the eldest lady would stay in the palace for a few more days, but the slave and maid always felt uneasy, and the eldest lady complained about you so much before entering the palace, how could she suddenly be so kind?! The slave maid wanted to send a letter to the Hou Ye and ask him to ask the eldest lady to let you come back, but the lady found out and didn't let the slave and maid do it. In the end, the slave and maid clamored to go to the palace to find you, and the lady gave the slave and maid to Cao Shun. ”
Su Yichen also felt sad, and hurriedly asked, "Aren't you already interested in someone?" Why don't you ask your aunt to marry that person, at least, at least end up with a happy relationship. ”
Shen Xiu stroked her stomach and lowered her head to wipe her tears: "The slave and maid will only have a good impression of him, but Miss, if something happens to you, the slave and maid can't ignore it, Madame thinks that the slave and maid are noisy and annoying in the house all day long, and it happened that Cao Shun ran into the house that day, so he begged Mrs. to give him the slave and maid." Cao Shun was afraid that I would not obey, so he kept the slave and maid locked in the house, and now, now he is gradually not so tightly guarded, and the slave and maid are still thinking about going to Young Master Ning Xuan and asking him to rescue you, fortunately, Miss, you have finally come out, and the slave and maid are relieved. ”
Su Yichen's tears also flowed: "I'm sorry, Xiuniang, it's me who is not good, and I have caused you to suffer!" ”
"Miss, don't say that." Shen Xiu comforted: "The slave watched you grow up, Miss Jiangyun entrusted you to the slave before she died, and the slave and the maid are willing to do anything for you." That is, I can't serve you anymore......"
Su Yichen hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my uncle will be back soon, I will go to ask my uncle, Cao Shun will not dare to let you go." ”
Shen Xiu sighed and said, "It's too late, miss, the slave also wants to go back with you, but the slave already has his flesh and blood in his belly." The slave maid has no choice in her life, and now that she has a child, the slave maid doesn't want him to be accused of being a fatherless child after he is born. ”
Su Yichen cried silently, although she couldn't bear Shen Xiu to continue to suffer, but she couldn't decide for Shen Xiu whether she would go or stay, after all, she already had Cao Shun's child, if Cao Shun could treat her sincerely in the future, it might not be worse than following her, the master of the disaster star. Thinking of this, she made up her mind, poured out all the silver taels in the money bag, and reached out to take off the bead hairpin jewelry on her head, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Shen Xiu: "Xiuniang, I came out in a hurry today, I didn't bring any silver, you wait for me, I'll send it to you another day." ”
Shen Xiu hurriedly excused herself, Su Yichen was ruthless, and said: "Xiuniang, if you still recognize me as a young lady, you will accept it, it will be regarded as the dowry given to you by me and my mother, and I will come to see you in the future." ”
Shen Xiu didn't dare to push it anymore with tears in her eyes, she only took the silver inside, and the jewelry was still put on for her, and said: "Miss, what is your situation in the Hou Mansion, the slave knows that I accepted the silver, but I can't accept it, if you want to be a slave in the future, come and see the slave and maid more......"
Su Yichen Yiyun asked some more about Cao Shun's family, Shen Xiufang reluctantly sent her out, that Cao Da hid behind the courtyard wall and probed his brain, looking uneasy, Su Yichen was annoyed, asked Shen Ningxuan to pull him out in the past, and said to him Zhengse: "I am the second lady of the Ningguo Hou Mansion, this is my brother Shen Ningxuan, he is the son of the Ning Guo Hou Mansion, and the chief of the palace guard of the fourth grade." Shen Xiu is my aunt, she married into your family and opened up branches for your Cao family, you and your son must treat her well, and you can't let her suffer the slightest grievance, otherwise, my brother and I will not be able to spare you! ”
Cao Da nodded like pounding garlic, and agreed repeatedly: "I know, I know." ”
Only then did Shen Ningxuan let go, and finally took the money bag from his waist and threw it to him: "Buy something for the family, don't let Shen Xiu suffer with you." ”
Cao Daxi couldn't help but be overjoyed, holding the money bag in both hands, nodding vigorously, and sending them away: "It must be, Miss Young Master walks slowly, and comes often when you are free!" ”
Su Yichen thought about it after returning from Shen Xiu's house, and when she left the palace, Su Yue gave her a bag of silver, saying that it was her salary from doing errands in Dexi Palace, but she ate and lived in the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, and there were not many places to get the silver, so she simply took out the silver and found a house near Dongdajie in the name of Shen Xiu, the house was not big, but it looked clean and bright, and it was close to the market, so it was convenient for her to see Shen Xiu in the future.
After settling down the house and then going to the alley, it was ten days later, she handed over the deed to Shen Xiu and made a few sachets designed and made by herself. Her concerns are more far-reaching, one is that Shen Xiu will give birth in the future, and the living environment in the alley is too simple and dirty, which is not suitable for the growth of children; Second, Cao Shun is a part-time worker, selling hard work, working tirelessly and earning little, and it is really difficult to make a living for his family. She taught Shen Xiu the incense-making skills taught to her by Twilight, and made sachets according to the preferences of the ladies and ladies in the capital.
