Chapter 37: Stopping

Pearl is making shoes, hooking the sole with a large needle and then pushing through it with a thimble, which seems to be extremely hard. Jinping taught the little girl to play the red silk, and the two said a few words from time to time, smiling.

Green Whisk had nothing to do, so he found another little girl to flip the rope and play. There are some snacks and snacks next to them, all of which are Jingyi rewarded, and occasionally when they are tired, they will pick a few to eat.

After getting along with her for a long time, I know that she is gentle, treats them very well, never beats and scolds them, and does not give them a look. This is already very rare in a big family like the Shen family.

Actually, it's not that Jingyi is kinder, it's just that she has suffered enough eyes and bullying in her previous life, so why let more people experience these pains!

It can be regarded as repaying God and giving her a chance to do it again!

"I don't know how many days this snow has to fall, it's been five or six days, and it hasn't stopped, I'm going to serve dinner today, and I heard Mrs. Li in the kitchen say that many people have frozen to death on the road outside."

"It's really pitiful, it's been snowing for so long, I'm afraid that this year's crops will be ruined, right?"

Hearing this, Pearl and Green Whisk stopped at the same time and looked at Shen Jingyi, who was sitting on the kang.

Pearl thought of the shops she had asked for from the old lady a few days ago, and it seemed that she had just bought a large amount of carbon and rice noodles, and it was snowing continuously.

Isn't the second lady ready for a long time?

No, why is she confused, the second miss is not a fairy, where do you know when the sky will change?

So, does the second lady really have the strength to take over the business that the old lady gave her?

She pursed her lips and lowered her head to concentrate on the shoes in her hands.

The second lady likes to wear shoes made of beads, so she does it with great care.

Green Fu grinned, her eyes sparkling and looking at Shen Jingyi, Shen Jingyi withdrew her gaze from the window, met her, and smiled slightly, with a little cunning.

Only the two of them know what they mean by each other.

As she expected, the snow fell for thirteen days before it stopped, and at that time, the entire north was severely affected.

It took half a month to get together, and the atmosphere in Jiashan Hall was much lower than before. Hou Ye has been very busy these days, and he has not even returned home, so he lives directly in the yali. Shen Kun also began to join the company and became a household servant, compared to his age, it is still quite impressive to have such a creation.

Except for the third room in the family, the others are all high-ranking officials, so they are not at home these days.

The old lady sighed at this scene.

"I don't know how much damage has been caused by this snow disaster, and the imperial court may not be able to keep busy for a while. The second child has just taken office, and he hasn't been back for a few days. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Shi also nodded, "Mother, I heard that there are more and more refugees outside, and the soup soup in Nanping is no longer available, so why don't we also open a warehouse soup kitchen, at least do our best to let the refugees eat a bite." ”

"Well, you have a heart." The old lady glanced at her and nodded.

The eldest lady glanced at it and did not speak.

At this time, Shen Jingyi took a sip of tea, rolled her eyes, and suddenly asked Shen Nan, "Second brother, isn't there a soup kitchen in the imperial court?" Why didn't the imperial court handle so many refugees? ”

Shen Nan was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and lowered his eyes.

"Sister Yi, there are times when the imperial court is too busy, so we princesses naturally want to help. The refugees are suffering now, and it is the time when the imperial court is needed, and since our Shen Mansion eats the king's luck, we naturally have to bear the king's worries. Gu said: "Yes, you are still young and a child, and the suffering in the outside world is naturally not something you can understand." ”

Shen Jingyi pursed her lips and looked at Shen Nan, clear to the bottom.

"This matter is feasible, so let's let the third child do it." The old lady said to the third master.

The third master, Shen Rong, immediately bowed his hand and said: "Yes, don't worry, mother, my son will definitely do it properly." ”

At this time, Shen Nan raised his head to stop, "Grandmother, third uncle, it's better to slow down this matter." ”

"Oh? What's wrong? The old lady was puzzled.

"Sun Er thought, it would be more appropriate to tell his father about this matter, after all, the court doesn't seem to have made an explicit order." Shen Nan said, glancing at the second lady.

Gu lowered his eyes and did not say anything more.

The old lady listened to his words, thought about it slightly, and was actually frightened into a cold sweat.

As an old lady in Houfu, it is impossible for her not to know the situation in the imperial court today. Therefore, Shen Nan, as the eldest son and grandson of the big house, is also the heir of the future Houfu, so he naturally understands what is represented behind the actions of each family.

This time, thanks to her words, otherwise, if it had been done, this matter would not have been easy. His eyes as he looked at Shen Jingyi were as soft as ever, and Jingyi smiled sweetly at her.

During this period, everyone had their own thoughts.

Shen Nan stayed, and in the east room, after Jade served tea, he took people to retreat.

The old lady took a sip of tea and said with trepidation: "If you hadn't said it, I would have almost done something wrong." Listen to you, but it's not right? ”

Shen Nan nodded: "Indeed, I didn't think about it so much at first, but when I thought of the relationship between Nanping Hou and King Qi, and the court did not issue an explicit order at this time, I felt that there must be something strange at this time." ”

The old lady covered her heart and pondered for a while.

"You say, what is the purpose of your second aunt, if she hadn't said it, I'm afraid I wouldn't have thought of soup soup so easily."

"And no matter what her purpose is, as a woman in the inner house, she has already overstepped, if this matter is promoted today, then our loyal and brave Houfu will offend the prince and be forced to stand on the side of the king of Qi. Even if we don't have that mind, the prince will certainly not regard us as loyal, and our neutral position will deviate. ”

"Yes, now that the battle between the crown prince and the king of Qi is becoming more and more clear, our family will not be mixed if it can be mixed." The old lady said, "You immediately prepare the car, go to the official office, tell your father, and let him take a time to come back." ”

Shen Nan nodded, "Grandson knows," he paused, and said: "Grandmother, grandson thinks that the second aunt suddenly mentions this kind of thing at this time, whether she is intentional or not, please beware of grandmother." ”

"I know this in my heart, even if she is the county lord, but she is also my daughter-in-law, since she chose to enter this family, she had better give me some peace."

Shen Nan pursed his lips and nodded silently, he could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

not only helped Dafang, but also helped Shen Jingyi.

After Shen Nan left, the old lady instructed Mama Gui: "...... These **** will find a mistake, let the second room hand over all the rights, and the person who should be replaced will be handed over to the eldest daughter-in-law to do it! Sister Yi'er's unreliable side has also been replaced, and the people in each room are afraid that they have been bought too much, so you can arrange some to go in. ”
