Chapter Forty-Three: See Moves
After listening to Gu Yu's words, Shen Yuxiao's face was calm and did not speak.
"The master asked the slave to ask Miss Shen San, what is Miss Shen going to do?" Gu Yu said respectfully to Shen Yuxiao.
Shen Yuxiao looked up at the window: "When will my grandfather be able to arrive in the capital?" ”
"Tomorrow morning at the latest." Gu Yu, who had been following Zhao Yi and his side, had already been instructed to know everything about Shen Yuxiao, so she naturally knew about Shen Yue's situation.
"Then wait for my grandfather to come back and give him to my grandfather." She is not the patron saint of the Shen family, so she has no obligation to solve anything for the Shen family, this is the child of the Shen family, even if it is disposed of, it should be handled by Shen Yue, the head of the family.
Gu Yu immediately took the order back to Prince Rui's mansion. Because the first two times Gu Yu came to Princess Yong'an's Mansion, the people of the Shen family also recognized her, only as if she was the female official of Princess Yong'an's Mansion, so the entire Shen Mansion was respectful.
As soon as Gu Yu left, the magpie entered Fanglin Garden and said that Fang asked Shen Yuxiao to go to Songhe Courtyard.
No matter what the Fang family said, she was also Shen Yuxiao's grandmother, and a few days ago, Shen Yuxiao had to go with Shen Yuxiao. But in the end, it was the Fang family who looked at Shen Yuxiao, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, and finally simply let her stay in his yard, so as not to come out and disturb her peace. Even asked for excuses, and now I don't know why, I actually asked Shen Yuxiao to come over.
Shen Yuxiao naturally didn't have anything to say, took Shuihua Tianhua, followed the magpie and walked to Songhe Courtyard.
Ma and Liu served together in front of Fang at first, while Su pretended to be sick and stayed in Fang Lin Yuan. The Fang clan was also really angry, looking at nothing going well, and he was angry at Fang Shuangshuang, not to mention the Ma clan and the Liu clan. Liu's temper is good, no matter how angry he is, he endured it, Ma's is not a soft persimmon, he was tossed like this for two days, he was angry, and he took his two sisters back to his parents' house.
Fang Shi wanted to save face, and she couldn't get out of bed, but she didn't allow others to spread the word of her illness. Ma just took advantage of this stubble to let his mother's family spread the news that the old lady was seriously ill and wanted to see her daughter, granddaughter and little grandson. In this way, no one can say anything, who made her mother-in-law well, but her mother is sick. Of course, Ma packed up his things and went back to Ma's house. Fang Shi knew that he fainted angrily, and he scolded the sky and the ground, but Ma Shi couldn't hear it. Only bitter Liu's and Fang Shuangshuang.
Shen Yufang disappeared after arguing with Aunt Gu in the morning, and Aunt Gu hurriedly wandered around the Ronghua Courtyard, and the people sent out to find it did not come back at all. She didn't dare to go to the Fang clan, for fear of leaking out, let alone her when the time came, Shen Yufang was afraid that she wouldn't be able to survive.
Thinking that in the morning she persuaded Shen Yufang to go to Princess Guyuan to stop her, but Shen Yufang yelled at her, saying that Princess Guyuan didn't want to see her at all now. At that time, I was still angry, so I went to find Princess Guyuan. She knows her daughter's temperament, and she has always ignored it, as long as she wants something, she will get it by any means. Even if you can't get it, you won't let others get it, what I said this morning. I must have gone to find Princess Guyuan.
Aunt Gu remembered the martial arts courtyard that Shen Yufang said before, and immediately asked Huanyu beside her to look for it, and found it and guarded it in that courtyard. If Shen Yufang really went to the martial arts courtyard to find Princess Guyuan, she would always have to come out.
comforted herself like this, but Aunt Gu was scared in her heart, she was afraid that Shen Yufang and Princess Guyuan would not agree with each other, and the royal people never even blinked when they killed someone, and the Shen family did not have any scruples about the current situation. Thinking of this, Aunt Gu knelt on the ground even more frightened, and kept praying to the heavens.
When Shen Yuxiao arrived at Songhe Courtyard, she only saw Fang Shuangshuang and the tired Liu family.
Fang Shi was shaking his hand and smashing the medicine bowl on the ground, watching Shen Yuxiao come in, his face was strange.
Others don't know, but Mama Tan knows, the last thing the Fang family wants to see now is Shen Yuxiao, but the current situation of the Shen family. Shen Yuxiao can still be treated by Princess Yong'an, and I am afraid that only she can save the Shen family.
"Grandmother." Shen Yuxiao stood about five steps away from the Fang clan and made a junior salute.
Hearing this, Fang's expression froze, and he tried to make his expression look kinder: "Xiao'er has seen a lot of reduction in the past few days. ”
Fang's words really couldn't be found, she really didn't have much impression of Shen Yuxiao, so she didn't know that Shen Yuxiao had eaten and slept well these days, but she had actually gained a little weight.
Fortunately, no one in this room would say that Fang's was not, let alone correct it at this juncture.
"Thank you grandmother for your concern." Shen Yuxiao, no matter what the Fang clan said, had a faint look.
It seems that Shen Yuxiao in Songhe Courtyard that day is her twin sister at all, and the two are not alone.
Fang looked at Shen Yuxiao, and really didn't want to talk about it: "The female official of Princess Yong'an's Mansion just left?" ”
"Yes."
"Why don't you go out and deliver it." For Shen Yuxiao's attitude towards Gu Yu, Fang didn't like it very much, according to her meaning, Shen Yuxiao should send people out of the door, and then let her maid send her to Princess Yong'an's Mansion, so that she would be familiar.
In this regard, Shen Yuxiao has always pretended to be deaf and dumb, did not speak, and let the Fang family say whatever he wanted.
Fang also knew that while being angry with Shen Yuxiao's attitude, he also changed the topic: "Ming, let your eldest aunt prepare a gift, you hand over a post, go to Princess Yong'an's Mansion to meet the princess." There's been a lot going on lately, and I think you're aware of it. Originally, I didn't plan to let one of your girls' family come forward, but now that even your eldest uncle has been detained, your third uncle is useless. Only you go and beg the princess and let her think of a way to save the Shen family. ”
Hearing this, Shen Yuxiao couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Fang's Clan, Fang's Clan, you really have a big heart. Let's not say that Princess Yong'an won't care at all, even if she really befriends the princess, begging to go to the door, how can the princess save the Shen family, can she run to Emperor Fengqing to cry for the Shen family. It's simply impossible, and it's really whimsical.
Although Shen Yuxiao thought so in her heart, she responded respectfully and obediently on her face.
Fang Shi was also very satisfied when he saw her so obedient, and asked her to step back.
As soon as she returned to Fanglin Garden, Shen Yuxiao asked Shui Hua to go to Linglong Fang and bring a letter to Zhao Yihe. The Fang family asked her to go to Princess Yong'an's Mansion to intercede.
When Shui Hua came back, in addition to bringing back Zhao Yihe's reply, there was also a box of jewelry. said that Zhao Yihe asked Lu to be the shopkeeper. Looking at the jewelry in front of her, Shen Yuxiao shook her head with a smile, since she beat Zhao Yi of Fahua Temple and asked Shen Yuxiao to go to Linglong Fang to find the shopkeeper Lu, she guessed that Linglong Fang was his industry.
Now Shui Hua will bring some things back every time he goes, but he is afraid that if he does a few more things, the entire Linglong Fang will be emptied.
Since she came to the capital, she can be regarded as a source of money, with the reward of Princess Yong'an, the gift from Zhao Heng, and the silver jewelry given by the Ma family, she is already the richest sister of the Shen family. Now there is Zhao Yi and this endless stream of gifts, and the booklet in her small warehouse is half thicker.
Su Shi didn't know about this, he was afraid that Shen Yuxiao would not have any silver in his hand, and he would send Mama Cao to send some silver money from time to time. Looking at these things, Shen Yuxiao thought in her heart, if she was a money-collecting person, she was afraid that she would die happily every day.
Unwrap the envelope on the box, in a familiar font, and write down only one word An.
There is only one word in the whole letter, and there is no payment, but Shen Yuxiao knows that this is Zhao Yihe's word. The words are like their people, the pen is powerful, the pen is like flowing water, and there is some freedom in the vigor.
Putting down the letter, Shui Hua took everything down and put it away.
The Fang clan didn't know what Shen Yuxiao was preparing for, so he pulled the Liu clan and opened the warehouse to select things one by one. It can't be too precious, otherwise Princess Yong'an will directly refuse when she looks at it, and it can't be precious, or people think the gift is too light.
In the end, he picked two beads of red coral nearly two feet high that Shen Wenhan brought back from the South China Sea.
Red coral is an auspicious thing, and with these two red corals, it is very large, and it is difficult to find this size even in Beijing. It is also thanks to Shen Wenhan's big business that he can get such a good thing.
After picking the ceremony, early in the morning of the second day, the Fang family sent someone to the Yong'an Princess Mansion to deliver the post.
When the people came back, Fang's heart was cold when he said a word: "Princess Yong'an, the eldest princess, and Princess Ning'an were left in the palace by the queen mother, and they were not in the house for a few days." ”
"Have you ever asked the princess when she will return home?" Fang looked at the butler who was kneeling on the ground.
The housekeeper lowered his head and replied tremblingly: "I asked, I can't say it's accurate, I may come back tomorrow, I may live in the palace for ten days and half a month, it's not accurate." "That's why he made a lot of money before people spoke.
Hearing this, Fang Shi only felt a headache, and held his forehead: "From tomorrow onwards, you will run to the princess's mansion every day, when you see Princess Yong'an, when will you come back to me." ”
After the order, the housekeeper really ran to Princess Yong'an's mansion every day. So the housekeeper of Prince Rui's Mansion also stayed in the gatehouse of Princess Yong'an's Mansion every day, just waiting for the housekeeper of the Shen family to come over and earn some silver.
Princess Yongan looked at Zhao Yihe, her brows twitched slightly, and she only wanted to be sarcastic, but the other two imperial sisters were not there, so she was afraid that she would not be able to damage Zhao Yihe, so she held back and didn't speak.
Master Ma sat on the side, as if he couldn't see the sister and brother at all, and just drank tea quietly.
In this way, Gu Yu is not good to go to Shen Mansion, and if he wants to know the news outside, he can only let Shui Hua go to Linglong Fang. But if you go out too much, it will inevitably make people suspicious, and in the end, Shen Yuxiao has no choice but to hide in Su's house every day. instructed the Su family to send Fuqing out to inquire about the news.
On the day Shen Yue and Shen Wenshan were escorted back to Beijing, even Wenzhu entered the mansion. Seeing that Su Shi was busy kowtowing, he spoke: "I went to see the old man and the old lady in my family just now." Both of them are in good spirits, but they can't talk to the master, so he asked me to talk to the lady, and the lady should only be relieved. ”
With Shen Wenshan's letter, Su Shi also knew it in his heart, but he was inevitably a little uneasy, and listening to Wen Zhu's words at this moment, he also settled down.
Wen Zhu didn't leave after taking the letter, staying to serve the Su family, and Mama Cao saw that her daughter-in-law liked it more and more. Wen Zhu followed her son well, not to mention giving birth to a son and a daughter, and taking good care of his wife's shop. Now that she has some family business, she will also have a prosperous land in the future.
Su Shi looked at Mama Cao with a smile on her face, and thoughtfully asked Wenzhu and Mama Cao to go down and eat something first. She is now preoccupied with Shen Wenshan, and she really wants to be quiet.
Just as everyone in the Shen family was holding their breath, there was a storm in the court.
