Chapter 34: Mystery

Shen Jingyi lowered her eyes and did not respond to her, seeing her like this, the old lady also dispelled the possibility of persuasion.

That's it, she's old, and she doesn't have the energy to meddle in many things. Besides, since she didn't interfere at the beginning, what qualifications does she have to do it now?

The bell must be tied to the bell, and what you do by yourself will always have to pay a price.

In the afternoon, Shen Jingyi accompanied the old lady to the Buddhist hall to recite the scriptures, while she herself concentrated on copying the Buddhist scriptures.

She admitted that there was hatred in her heart, which was not obvious at first, but after hearing this past, she made waves.

What was the truth back then?

If her father didn't like her mother, why did he have sex with her? Or is it that things are not so simple, but the father is empathetic, so after the mother gave birth to her, she died depressed?

No, it's not.

She remembers that when her mother was there, she was still in good health, that is, she suddenly contracted an illness in the last half of the year, and then she was taken to Jiashan Hall to be raised by her grandmother.

For half a year, her mother's complexion was declining, she couldn't speak or move, and every time she went to see her, she would cry and stare at her for a moment.

Eventually, she fell ill and died in the night.

But is there any connection between that?

At that time, her father and the county lord took Shen Hanyu, who was already three years old, as if they were a family of three, and the house almost forgot about her mother's cunning.

Or was her mother harmed by Gu Min?

However, what reason did Gu Min have to hurt her mother? She is already her father's wife, and she has already gotten what she deserves, and generally speaking, there is no need to attack her mother again.

After all, the mother has no son, only her, and she is not any threat to Gu Min at all.

Otherwise, even if she has been protected by her grandmother all these years, how can she escape the clutches of her mother-in-law?

Shen Jingyi's thoughts were messed up, so the scriptures were also messed up.

The sound of the old lady knocking on the wooden fish in the Buddhist hall came one after another, the muffled chanting sound, and the faint sandalwood in the room.

She opened her eyes, glanced at the person who was copying the scriptures on the side, and sighed, "Put it down, if the heart is not quiet, it will be insincere, such a scripture is for the Bodhisattva, and the Bodhisattva will not want it." ”

Shen Jingyi was stunned when she heard this, looked down at the scriptures written on the paper for a long time, and finally put down the pen.

The wooden fish was still knocking, and the sound was crisp and steady, which made Shen Jingyi's heart gradually calm down.

She knelt on the futon behind the old lady, listening to the scriptures and the sound of wooden fish, and after a long time, the old lady stopped.

Shen Jingyi opened her eyes and helped her out of the Buddhist hall.

The sky was already a little dark, and it stands to reason that those who had gone out should have returned.

Sure enough, as soon as they came out, they heard Mama Gui say that the Hou Ye and the Second Master had returned. When they arrived at the main room, Hou Ye was talking to Shen Kun, while Gu Min was talking with the third wife and the fourth lady bowing their heads.

Her face will always be that glamorous, yet dignified.

Shen Jingyi calmly withdrew her gaze, just in time to see Shen Nan looking at him and smiling slightly.

"Mother, you're here." Hou Ye stood up and came over to greet the old lady, and took the hand to support her. Shen Jingyi stepped back and was pulled over by Shen Cong.

"Why didn't you go out today? I still heard what the sixth brother said. ”

Shen Jingyi replied to him: "I don't want to go to Gu's house, so I stayed to talk to my grandmother and recite Buddhist scriptures." ”

"Hey, what's there to read about the Buddhist scriptures, why don't you take your brother out to play another day?" Shen Cong said: "How is the plum garden?" I've heard it's pretty good. ”

Shen Jingyi frowned, picked up the tea that the maid had just come up, and asked casually, "Why do you want to go to the plum garden so decently?" ”

"I listened to what Cousin Jiang Hua said, the capital is red, how many talented and beautiful people often go there, the second brother has already said that he is ready to take a moment to go over and have a look in the next few days. How, do you want to go? I didn't go last time, but this time my brothers will take you. ”

Shen Cong said flatteringly.

Jingyi clenched the hand holding the teacup, and her pink nails suddenly turned white.

It's a pity that Shen Cong didn't notice this.

"I'm weak, I'm afraid I can't resist the wind and snow."

"Wind and snow? It's such a good day, how can there be wind and snow? ”

Shen Jingyi smiled, of course there is, if she remembers correctly, in three days, there will be a snow to fall, and it will stop for more than ten consecutive days.

Many beggars froze to death in the capital, and the old people who couldn't survive at home would also die one by one.

Houses collapsed, people were killed and wounded.

Crops will also suffer, so this year's big disaster is the snow disaster, and the northern land is affected by the severe zhòng. Therefore, the goods in Jiangnan are becoming more and more expensive in the capital.

She thought that this seemed to be an opportunity to make money as well, and that her mother's dowry had a lot of shops, all of which were collected from her grandmother, and she should try to get them back.

"Second sister? Second sister? ”

Shen Cong stretched out his hand and walked around in front of her, Shen Jingyi suddenly came back to her senses, "What's wrong?" She asked.

"What were you just thinking? I asked you, how is it, whether to go or not, Cousin Jiang Hua also invited several other sisters. ”

Shen Jingyi sneered in her heart, sure enough, he was eyeing her.

"No, I'm still at home with my grandmother, or I don't want to accompany my eldest sister."

Shen Cong looked disgusted, "How did I find out that when I came back to see you this time, it was much more dull than before, and I couldn't even play, and quietly the fourth sister of the family, if I didn't call her, she rushed to get up." He whispered, blinking.

Shen Jingyi couldn't help but smile, "According to what you say, it's a good thing to have thick skin?" ”

"Of course!"

"No wonder Third Brother, you never blush."

Shen Cong: How can you say that ......?

Shen Rui suddenly came out and made a grimace, "Third brother is shameless haha......"

"Stinky boy, you're shameless." Shen Cong stood up and went to chase Shen Rui, who had escaped.

Shen Jingyi shook her head and smiled, Shen Nan, who had just finished talking to Shen An, the fourth-room uncle, came over. He sat down on the other side of her, took a sip of a new cup of tea, and said, "After saying this, the third child's face turned red. ”

Is it red?

She didn't see it......

"Hmm...... Discuss the difference between thick-skinned and shameless. ”

Shen Nan saw the cunning look in her eyes, and couldn't help but be curious: "Oh? So tell me, what's the difference between the two? ”

"Needless to say," Shen Jingyi tilted her head and smiled: "Just look at the third brother!" ”

Shen Nan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, attracted by his laughter, and the old lady who looked at him asked, "What did Brother Nan and Sister Yi say, laughing so happily?" ”

"Grandmother," Shen Nan said, "It's not that I want to laugh, it's that Sister Yi is too naughty." ”

Shen Jingyi's face turned red, stuck out her tongue and lowered her head.

The old lady said happily: "This child is just as open as you can, as soon as outsiders are there, they will be silent." ”
