Chapter 148: Red Stone
Zhong Liyue's heart sank sharply, and her eyes couldn't help but turn to Shen Zhaoyan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He didn't look at this side, but said with a smile: "Uncle Tai, don't worry, Zhaoyan will start to handle this matter." ”
"Aren't you busy with the waterway? Marriage has always been handled by the elders, your father went early, your marriage might as well be let me and your uncle help you Zhang Luo! Uncle Tai said with a kind face. He didn't even mention the old woman Shen, I don't know if it was intentional, or if he had long forgotten the existence of this person.
Zhong Liyue was in no mood to think about this at the moment, she just wanted to know what Shen Zhaoyan thought.
She thought that she could wave goodbye to Shen Zhaoyan at the end of this road, but when she was really near the end, she realized that she had already fallen into it and couldn't extricate herself. As soon as she heard her uncle mention this, she felt so uncomfortable and uncomfortable, as if she was about to suffocate. Especially Shen Zhaoyan's attitude, he didn't even look at her.
It turned out that her heart was looking forward to Shen Zhaoyan being able to get rid of the shackles of feudalism for her and give up everything for her.
"Uncle Tai, don't blame me for being too talkative, Zhaoyan may have fallen in love with a daughter a long time ago, just wait for time. He's not too young, do you need someone else's help with this? The fourth uncle smiled sinisterly.
"That is, which of those young masters of his age is not a child around his knees?" Uncle Eleven echoed with a smile.
"Oh? That's good. Uncle Tai smiled and said, "The fourth child reminded me that young people are more anxious about this kind of thing than us old people." Look how much I! ”
The old men in the room laughed.
Shen Zhaoyan smiled indifferently, but he didn't deny it.
He didn't even open his mouth to deny it!
Zhong Liyue felt that her heart was cold. Recalling the beautiful woman in white who was with him last time, wouldn't it be the daughter in his photo?
"When I went to eat last month, Mr. Zheng also told me about his daughter-in-law, who is not only a good cook, but also plans to keep accounts, and our Zhaoyan is very right, I also wanted to match this matter at the time, but fortunately I didn't agree, otherwise how can it be good?" Uncle Tai joked.
"It doesn't matter! Zhaoyan can emulate Empress E's daughter, with our Zhaoyan's talent, can't a first-class daughter be worthy? ”
Zhong Liyue was about to explode. What the? Still the Empress Ying? Zhong Liyue glared at the uncle who said this very unhappily, although he was ugly, he thought about it quite beautifully. I really want to smash a pot of water over it!
When the elders talked about the marriage of the younger generations, they were all smiling, as if the embarrassing atmosphere just now no longer existed. The harmony in this room should have made people feel very relaxed, but Zhong Liyue looked at them and felt ridiculous in her heart!
One by one, what to pretend! What was their purpose for letting Shen Zhaoyan marry a wife? It's nothing more than the woman's family background that can bring certain benefits to the Shen family. As long as they join forces in terms of interests, what do you want to talk about whether you like it or not? If Shen Zhaoyan insisted on marrying someone he liked, but she was a powerless peasant woman, wouldn't these people be so angry that they blew their noses and glared at them, and they made a fuss?
Zhong Liyue was startled by the voice in her heart. Oh my God, this kind of thinking is obviously unbalanced? How could she be?
Shen Zhaoyan picked up the teacup and took a sip, it was already empty, he disappreciatively put the teacup on the coffee table, waited for a while, and found that Zhong Liyue had no sign of adding tea, so he gently reminded: "Pour tea." ”
However, Zhong Liyue still didn't move.
Shen Zhaoyan couldn't help frowning and glanced at Zhong Liyue.
Why do you look like you're out of breath?
Because of what a few uncles said? Shen Zhaoyan suddenly understood in his heart, and the corners of his lips lifted slightly.
At this time, when they were about to face noon, Shen Zhaoyan just found an excuse to interrupt them: "It's noon in the blink of an eye, all your uncles are hungry, right?" Come on, prepare food. ”
Cheng Yizhi immediately came in from outside the door and said, "Lunch has been prepared, please move to the dining hall." ”
Everyone got up and walked out the door.
Shen Zhaoyan walked at the back, and after taking a few steps, he found that Zhong Liyue was still standing still, so he turned around and whispered: "Liyue!" ”
Zhong Liyue retracted her mind and followed with her head down.
"If you're not feeling well, you don't have to wait for dinner, go back and rest!" Shen Zhaoyan said.
Zhong Liyue hung her head and said softly: "The slave is very good, there is nothing uncomfortable. Serving the master's meal is the slave's job, and the slave will never be lazy and shirk. ”
Shen Zhaoyan looked at her, feeling a little unbearable, but the elders were beside him, he couldn't stay too long, so he could only say softly when he turned around: "Uncle Tai's words, you don't have to take it to heart." ”
Zhong Liyue lowered her head meekly, unable to see any emotion, she silently followed Shen Zhaoyan to the dining room.
For lunch, Zhong Liyue's performance was perfect, and nothing went wrong.
During the banquet, when the elders said anything, she did not have a trace of emotional fluctuations, as if she was out of the matter.
Shen Zhaoyan knew that she must have been angry in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't be so quiet.
After lunch, Shen Zhaoyan sent the uncles to the gate of the mansion, and after watching them get into the carriage one by one, he instructed Mingde: "Go and record the names of the three generations of cousins of the Shen family and give me the names of the crowned men." ”
"Yes." Mingde bowed down and asked, "Young Master, do you want to prepare the car now?" Or go home for a lunch break? ”
Shen Zhaoyan thought for a moment, turned around and said, "You go and prepare the car now, and I'll come out in a while." ”
"Is the eldest young master going back to get something? The small ones go. Mingde hurriedly asked attentively.
Shen Zhaoyan smiled, and said intentionally in his words: "Take a very important thing, others can't replace it." After speaking, he strode towards the direction of Zhuyuan, leaving Mingde to stay where he was, thinking about what the eldest young master could not take for others.
Zhong Liyue stood in an inconspicuous corner of the bamboo garden, bent over and hanging her head, looking attentive, as if she was looking for something.
After a long time, she finally stopped, and looked happily at a red stone wrapped in red cloth not far away, and she hurried over to squat down and pick up the stone, with a happy smile on her face.
"Great." Zhong Liyue muttered to herself. She stood up, looked up at the wall, then shook the stone in her hand and, as agreed, threw it out again.
It seems that a hope is thrown. Zhong Liyue's heart was full of expectations, looking forward to this hope being able to blossom and bear fruit as soon as possible.
This place, she really didn't want to stay for a moment.
Back in the courtyard, Zhong Liyue saw Shen Zhaoyan standing at the door of her house, and immediately turned around reflexively, not wanting to see him.
But it was too late, and Shen Zhaoyan had already seen her. His low voice sounded from behind without any tone: "Liyue." ”
Under the same roof, you can't escape after all.
Zhong Liyue adjusted her mood, turned around with a smile, and asked gently, "Does the eldest young master have any orders?" ”
Shen Zhaoyan walked over and asked with a smile in his eyes, "Feeling uncomfortable?" ”
"Young Master, where are you talking about this? The slave and maid are standing here in a dignified manner, and it is very comfortable everywhere! Zhong Liyue replied in witty words. Her tone was so relaxed that she couldn't hear anything wrong. (To be continued.) )
