Chapter 30: Travel
It's just that the previous life was more than a year later, but now it is so early, Shen Yue is still alive, could it be that the Fang clan is not selling women for glory, but to rectify her to death.
In the previous life, the Fang family also suddenly proposed to go to Fahua Temple, but instead of praying for blessings, but asking Mrs. Bo Changhou to look at Zhang Mang for him, that time only brought Fang Shuangshuang today, Shen Yufang and her.
Shen Yufang seemed to have gotten the news in advance, she has always liked heavy makeup, but it was rare to wear a plain dress that did not match her at all, and she also put a mole on her face.
In such a stark contrast, as long as Mrs. Bo Changhou is not stupid, she will take a fancy to Shen Yuxiao wearing light makeup.
That time, the Fang family didn't know if he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he exchanged Geng stickers, and handed Shen Yuxiao's personal purse to Zhang Mang, trapping her for private teaching, ruining her reputation, and having to marry into Bochang Houfu.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuxiao clenched her hands tightly, and her nails quickly pinched into her palms.
Feeling Shen Yuxiao's abnormality, Shen Yuanxiang, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but pull her hand, just because she was uncomfortable and didn't want to go: "Grandmother, Yuan Xiang also feels a little depressed these days, it is better to let Yuan Xiang serve her grandmother." ”
The Fang family naturally knew the purpose of this trip, how could he let Shen Yuanxiang follow, Shen Yuanxiang was the eldest daughter of the Shen family, and the granddaughter of the Fang family, even if she didn't like the Liu family anymore, this eldest granddaughter still hurt in the palm of her hand.
"You stay at home, and now you are not young, from tomorrow onwards follow your mother to learn housekeeping." Speaking and turning his head to the Liu family, "Old family, start up, listen to the steward's reply, and bring a big girl." ”
"Yes." Liu responded respectfully.
The Fang clan said that they were tired, and everyone withdrew.
When he got out of the main house, the warm sunlight outside hit his body, and Shen Yuxiao's cold body finally warmed up. The Su clan had never seen Shen Yuxiao's face so pale, just now because the Fang clan was there, as soon as he came out of the Songhe Courtyard, he took Shen Yuxiao's hand and held it: "Why is Xiao'er's hand so cold, isn't it uncomfortable?" If you don't want to go, your mother will go back to your grandmother for you, and you just have to go back to the yard and lie down. ”
Although the Su family didn't know why Shen Yuxiao rejected her like this, as long as her daughter was unwilling, she never forced her.
Shen Yuxiao looked at Su's concerned gaze, and Shen Yuanxiang, who had not walked away, tried to calm down, and then smiled: "Xiao'er is fine, since grandmother has decided, then just go." It's not in the way, but I'll come back in a day, Xiao'er just thinks about sitting in the carriage for such a long time, and she feels a little uncomfortable. ”
Su only thought that Shen Yuxiao had been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, and he still remembered what happened on the way back to Beijing, and when he saw that Shen Yuxiao said so, he didn't say anything more.
When I returned to Fanglin Garden, I didn't sit down yet, and the magpie from Songhe Yuan came over and sent a set of spring clothes and matching jewelry for the old lady.
Even the outfit was thought of for her, which really can't be refused.
Shui Hua and Tianhua have been following Shen Yuxiao's side, and they know her temper the best, although they don't know why she is angry, but they understand that she is really angry this time.
"Miss, this dress ......"
"Leave it aside, since it's all delivered, you can still return it." Shen Yuxiao heard Shui Hua's voice, and then she retracted her mind.
Su Shi got the news that the Songhe Courtyard had sent the clothes over, and he was busy with the East Side Courtyard, and saw Shen Yuxiao sitting on the warm kang in a daze, and the clothes sent by the magpie were still resting on the table. Shui Hua sat at the door embroidering a handkerchief with an embroidered bandage, and was about to get up and speak when he saw Su Shi coming, but Su Shi stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Go down."
"Yes." Shui Hua retreated in response and gently closed the door.
The sound of the door closing alarmed Shen Yuxiao, and only then did she come back to her senses, Su Shi had already walked to the side of the kang and sat down.
"Xiao'er, you should pretend to be sick tomorrow, don't go, I'll talk to your grandmother with your father later." Su Shi looked at Shen Yuxiao, and his eyes were extremely gentle.
Looking at the Su family's eyes full of concern, Shen Yuxiao's heart didn't feel slightly warm: "Mother is not in the way, it's just going out for a day, and accompanying her grandmother to incense is what a daughter should do." ”
"But if you treat her as a grandmother, she will treat you as a granddaughter. Otherwise, she wouldn't have sent these clothes over, I'm afraid I don't know what I'm thinking...... "When Su Shi thought of his guess, he only felt a pain in his heart, although Shen Wenshan was a concubine, he was also respectful to her Fang family as a mother-in-law, she has always lowered her eyebrows since she married into the Shen family, and her mother at home said that her mother-in-law is not a good temper, let her bear it more, just wait for her to go out of the house, she endured it. It's just that I can't see her repeatedly embarrassing her baby daughter, and now I don't know what selfish ideas she is making.
Hearing this, Shen Yuxiao hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop Su's words: "Mother, don't say such things again, if you let others listen to it, the consequences will be unimaginable." Xiao'er doesn't care about her mother, it's just that the house is restless, which will only affect her father's career. ”
"Mother doesn't know, but I really can't see you being wronged everywhere. You are also a serious Miss Yan in the second room, but now don't say it. It's just a cousin, and all the examples can go past you, and my mother is worried that this time I will go out......"
"Mother, just rest assured, my daughter will be fine." Shen Yuxiao glanced at the Su clan and said categorically. In this life, if they still want to use this method to harm her, then don't blame her for being ruthless.
Early the next morning, Shen Yuxiao got up, washed and ate and drank as usual, and changed into the clothes sent by the Shang family. Shen Wenshan left Beijing for a few days on business, Su couldn't think of a good way, he didn't sleep well all night, and when Shen Yuxiao went to ask for peace, his face was full of tiredness.
Seeing that Shen Yuxiao was still not at ease: "Xiao'er, I think you should not go." ”
"Mother, just rest assured, if you don't go to Songheyuan now, your grandmother will have a seizure." Shen Yuxiao knew what Su was worried about, so she could only sigh with relief.
Xu is later needed Shen Yuxiao's cooperation, and it was rare for the Fang clan to see that the Su clan did not give a face, and only briefly explained a few words to the Liu clan and ordered Shen Yuxiao and Fang Shuangshuang to leave.
Shen Jinhua hadn't come out on the first day, so the Fang clan naturally wouldn't ask Shen Jinxi to accompany him, so the Liu clan arranged for the housekeeper Yang Xian to follow. Originally, more than a dozen maids and mothers-in-law were arranged, but they were rejected by the Fang family, and only took two maids, Mama Tan and Magpie Egret.
Shen Yuxiao naturally couldn't go past her grandmother, so she brought Shuihua Tianhua, and Fang Shuangshuang was still accompanied by Mama Lu from Shandong, and there was also a cloud crane given by the Fang family.
Because the number of people has shrunk, when the Fang family was supported by Mama Tan, the family gathered in front of the second gate, and saw a large group of maids and women standing neatly next to the eight carts.
Seeing this, Fang Shi not only did not appreciate Liu's thoughtfulness, but instead had a cold face and scolded Liu Shi in front of everyone: "It's just burning incense, what do you mean by suppressing a large group of people?" Do you want to make it known to everyone? You can't even do this idea, can you still be the housewife of the Shen Mansion? ”
This was a bit heavy, and Liu Shi was suddenly aggrieved, but he couldn't, so he hurriedly confessed: "Mother is angry, it's the daughter-in-law who is not thoughtful." Mama Zhang withdrew all the cars behind her, and left one for the old lady and the three young ladies. ”
"Yes." Mama Zhang took the order and took the maid to lead the rest of the carriage and horses to the backyard.
Seeing how the Liu family was also his son's original wife, the Fang family didn't like it anymore, and he also spread his anger, and got into the car with Fang Shuangshuang's support: "Shuangshuang, you sit in front with me, let Mama Lu and Yunhe follow in the car." ”
Before leaving, Fang said to Fang Shuangshuang, who was about to go to the car behind. Hearing this, Shen Yufang, who had been following behind the Fang family, said with a temperament: "Yufang also wants to be with grandmother." ”
Hearing Shen Yufang's mouth, Fang's face turned cold: "What's the trouble, do you want to sit down with grandmother?" Simply grandmother let you go. ”
was so frightened that Shen Yufang didn't dare to speak anymore, and hurriedly retreated to the back.
Shen Yuxiao looked at it and naturally wouldn't get involved in their affairs, Fang's didn't like her, she was also happy, and when Fang's and Fang Shuangshuang sat down, they took the maid to the back car.
The Su family sent the Fang family's carriage and horses out of the second gate, and the Liu family was naturally uncomfortable when they were scolded in public. Seeing this, Su Shi couldn't help but feel relieved: "Sister-in-law, don't hurt your body." ”
"Alas...... This ......" Liu looked at Su and sighed, after all, he couldn't criticize the elders.
The two concubines understood each other and walked towards the inner courtyard silently, but Ma Shi looked at the direction of Fang's departure and became suspicious.
Seeing that the people around her were scattered, Lian Xiang, who was following Ma's side, asked in a low voice, "Madam, what are you looking at?" ”
"It's nothing, Lianxiang, you hurry up and go to your uncle and ask him to pay attention to which official eunuchs in Beijing have entered Fahua Temple today, and those who have children to marry." Ma Shi thought of something and hurriedly commanded.
Lian Xiang naturally didn't dare to delay, and then ordered to leave the house directly, she knew in her heart that the Ma family was on fire for the second lady's marriage recently.
