Chapter 25: Mandarin Duck Surrender
Shen Wenshan came back in the evening and confirmed that the news was true, but he did not require all school-age women to be elected, and each family volunteered. Shen Wenshan naturally wouldn't let Shen Yuxiao go, but the other two rooms of the Shen family were uncertain. So when Shen Yuxiao borrowed Luo Jia's words to ask, he only mentioned it slightly, and didn't say anything more.
After all, this is about the life of his daughter's family, even if Shen Wenshan is enlightened, he is unwilling to do this in front of his daughter. sent Shen Yuxiao back to rest early.
After seeing Shen Yuxiao return to the East Side Courtyard, Tianhua trotted up to meet her: "Miss, the mandarin ducks in the hut are clamoring to see you." ”
Hearing this, Shen Yuxiao raised her eyebrows slightly: "Where is she?" ”
"The slave didn't let her out, and she was still locked up in the house."
"Let's go, let's see." After Shen Yuxiao finished speaking, she walked towards the hut in the east courtyard.
Seeing Shen Yuxiao coming, the two mothers-in-law guarding the door immediately greeted her flatteringly: "Third Miss." ”
Shen Yuxiao nodded, and they opened the door and retreated, but they didn't go far but waited in the courtyard, in case the young lady had orders, it would be convenient.
Shui Hua followed into the house, and Tianhua closed the door and guarded the door.
Hearing the movement, the mandarin duck, who was originally sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, hurriedly knelt down in front of Shen Yuxiao. I have to say that the Fang clan also worked hard to pick people at that time, and the mandarin ducks were among the best in terms of posture and figure, but it was a pity that the Fang clan was used to deal with Shen Wenshan, otherwise it was indeed a good chess piece for Shen Yue to use to contain his officials.
"Third Miss, the slave has something to tell Third Miss." The mandarin duck knelt directly on the ground, but this time it was not as pretentious as last time, but leaned over.
has been locked up by Shen Yuxiao for so long, and her sharp spirit has long been smoothed out.
Shen Yuxiao let her mother-in-law look at her, and she was not enslaved, let alone tortured, but she was just restricted from letting anyone talk to her, and after a long time, the mandarin duck was about to be suffocated, no matter what she said, no one responded. This is also Shen Yuxiao's greeting today, otherwise she wouldn't be able to see Shen Yuxiao if she wants to.
Looking at the soft face of the mandarin duck kneeling on the ground, it was not as bright as it was when she first saw it, but Shen Yuxiao didn't have any sympathy in her heart. In her previous life, she was such a person, she was bedridden with her mother's affection, and it was such a person who instigated her to be filial in front of the Fang family, and finally took her personal belongings to frame her for private teaching, forcing her to marry Zhang Mang.
Seeing that Shen Yuxiao didn't answer for a long time, Mandarin Duck suddenly felt anxious, and looked at Shui Hua and Tianhua looking at her even more eagerly: "Can the third lady drop off others." ”
Shen Yuxiao raised her eyes when she heard this: "If you want to say anything, just say it now, if you don't have anything to say, don't say anything again." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Third Miss, stay." Seeing that Shen Yuxiao was really leaving, the mandarin duck suddenly said anxiously, and his heart was horizontal: "Third Miss!" Three Misses! Someone wants to kill Miss Three. ”
Shen Yuxiao paused when she heard this, looked back at the mandarin duck and did not speak.
"The third lady must believe the slave maid, but what the slave and maid said is true. Last night, Mama Lu, who was next to Miss Biao, came to find the slave maid, saying that she asked the slave to quietly steal a personal belongings of the young lady. There is also Aunt Gu, Aunt Gu gave the slave a bottle of medicine, saying that it is a medicine that can make people sleep for three days with a high fever and recover automatically on the fourth day. Let the slave maid think about it for the third lady. After speaking, the mandarin duck glanced at Shen Yuxiao's reaction.
Seeing that Shen Yuxiao didn't seem surprised, she couldn't help but be a little panicked in her heart, it wasn't for these things that couldn't impress the third lady.
Shen Yuxiao didn't believe what Mandarin Duck thought and didn't believe what she said, on the contrary, she knew that these were true, and Tianhua reported it early this morning, which was exactly the same as what Mandarin Duck said. It's just that she doesn't talk about grandma, she doesn't say it just to see what the mandarin duck has in mind.
Yesterday, Aunt Gu and the others left one after another, and the mandarin duck was stunned for a long time, not to mention whether she wanted to do what they said. In her current state, it is difficult to even meet Shen Yuxiao, let alone start. After thinking about it, she felt that this was a perfect opportunity for her to surrender to Shen Yuxiao, why not take advantage of this to dispel Shen Yuxiao's concerns about her, it would be better than being locked up in this square room and not seeing the light of day. Only then did he entrust the guard's mother-in-law and made a lot of money to see Shen Yuxiao.
It was cold for a long time, and seeing that the mandarin duck couldn't touch the edge in his heart, and his face was a little flustered, Shen Yuxiao spoke: "If the grandmother summons you, what can you say?" If you don't think about it, Tianhua will give her mother early in the morning, and let the eldest aunt invite her to come over. The latter sentence was instructed to Tianhua, but it made the mandarin duck's heart feel cold, and it was like falling into an ice cave in an instant.
Miss Three knows everything!
After saying that, Shen Yuxiao didn't stay any longer, and immediately turned around and went back to her room.
Fang Clan had been in the backyard for a long time, and there were only a few methods that could be used. For Shen Yuxiao, she didn't want her to go out, but she was just using filial piety to oppress people.
Yesterday, what Mama Tan said when she came over was heard clearly by the mother-in-law hiding at the door. When the Fang clan went to ask for peace early tomorrow morning, they said that they wanted to meet the mandarin ducks, and then the mandarin ducks only had to pretend to be abused by Shen Yuxiao. Beating the person given by the grandmother is slapping the grandmother's face, saying that it is light is just punishing the subordinate, and saying that it is heavy is not respecting the elders and not keeping filial piety.
If it is impossible to say how to treat Shen Yuxiao, it is still possible to punish her to kneel in the ancestral hall and confine, even if Shen Wenshan comes back, he can't say anything.
When listening to Tianhua's report, Shen Yuxiao immediately thought of this, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, why did the Fang clan do this, could it be that because she disobeyed her, she forcibly blamed Shen Yue's anger on her? I can't help but feel a little angry.
On the second day, Shen Yuxiao went to greet the Su family as usual, and then went to Songhe Courtyard with Shen Wenshan of the Su family. Because they were going out to Changchun Garden after greeting the Fang clan, everyone was two quarters of an hour earlier than usual.
By the time Su Shi and Shen Yuxiao arrived at Songhe Courtyard, everyone else had already arrived. Seeing the maid Shen Yuxiao coming in with the curtain, Fang Shi lifted his eyelids, stretched out his hand to hold the bun and said, "Guixiang, take a good look at whether my bun is off today?" ”
Hearing this, Mama looked at it carefully: "The old lady doesn't say that she doesn't think much, but now it's not a little biased to take a closer look, or the slave maid will be right for you?" ”
"Really?" Fang Shi said with some sighs: "In the past, it was the mandarin ducks who combed my hair, but now that I am a different person, I am really a little unaccustomed to it." ”
Everyone couldn't figure out what Fang was thinking for a while, she had forced it out, and now these words were really confusing. Just look at the nose and nose, and stand there and say nothing.
Seeing that no one spoke, Fang's gaze fell on Su's body, and noticing Fang's gaze, Su had no choice but to speak: "Mother, do you want to let the mandarin duck go back to Songhe Courtyard to serve you." ”
"Then there's no need, since the people are for you, stay in Hong Lim Garden. But I haven't seen her in a few days, so I'll let her come and comb my hair today. Fang Shi leaned on the big kang in front of the window, naturally no one would say a word when she said this, and at that moment Su Shi asked Shui Hua to bring the mandarin duck over.
