Chapter Ninety-Four: Trouble Comes to the Door
"Xiaoru, can you get used to living here? If there is anything you need, just say it, it will meet your requirements, just treat it as your home, and don't be so restrictive. Yao Hongwei's wife, Lin Jingru, was the head of Yao's house, and took Shen Zhuru's hand and spoke affectionately.
"Thank you, aunt, I'm used to living very well, I don't feel anything inconvenient, and my aunt has bothered."
"Just get used to it."
"Xiaoru, the second aunt should also walk around often, but don't be born, it's all your own family, and the palms and backs of your hands are all meat." Yao Hongjian's wife, Bai Yan, also spoke with a smile and invited directly.
"Well, I'll definitely visit when I have time."
"Xiaoru, you can't favor one over the other, if you visit the door, don't forget that there is also our side, but you have to treat it as your own home, and come and go around from time to time."
"Yes, yes, if you want to come and go, even if you just sit for a while, it doesn't matter, you can only get closer by moving around."
As soon as the ladies of the big room and the second room spoke, the ladies of the other seven rooms were also busy echoing, and their attitudes were extremely enthusiastic.
However, these ladies will not be entangled all the time, what should be said is said, and then they left the daughters of Shen Zhuru's age or more clever brought by each room to chat with Shen Zhuru in this Mercury Garden and do something of interest, and these ladies did not linger and left directly.
There are some things that they still understand very well.
A group of young ladies, from ten to eighteen years old, chattered around Shen Zhuru and proposed something.
As long as Shen Zhuru's expression was a little wrong, he immediately changed the topic until he found something that could make Shen Zhuru not appear impatient to do it together and bring them closer to each other.
Mu Fenghua left this Mercury Garden with Qibao early to wander around other places. A group of women were chirping together, and he couldn't stand the noise.
Shen Zhuru, as the target of everyone, was surrounded like a moon of stars, and from time to time he mentioned the topic of Su Luoquan, which obviously had a tentative meaning.
This Su Luoquan's reputation in the capital is okay, the most important thing is that he is powerful, has money and appearance, and has no marriage match, and has never had bad scandals with some women, and even Qinglou is very rare, such a clean and capable man is simply a representative of a diamond bachelor.
How many girls dream of marrying him, even if it is just a small concubine, as long as they enter the door and take root in the mansion of the Marquis of Huaiyuan, sooner or later they will be able to climb the throne of Mrs. Hou and become a first-class lady.
It's a pity that although the dream is good, but this Huaiyuan Marquis is not easy to approach, even if it was rumored that some Qingqier came to the door to play some small songs and other things, it is unknown whether these Qingqier are lucky enough to become the women of the Hou Ye, but I have never seen a woman in the Huaiyuan Marquis's mansion, and I am afraid that no woman can take down this Huaiyuan Marquis now.
Shen Zhuru was listening to these Yao family ladies talking about Su Luoquan, and couldn't help but remember that when he first went to the palace of Xiaojun County, he was misunderstood by Cao Daxiong as someone else and directly led to Su Luoquan's house.
No wonder Cao Daxiong's eyes were strange at that time, especially after Shen Zhuru stepped into with him, the eyes of disdain and dissatisfaction are still fresh in my memory.
I'm afraid that this Su Luoquan is not as clean and self-righteous as rumored by the outside world, but he will no longer be in his own mansion when he messes around, but in the palace of the prince of Xiaojun, naturally no one will see another woman in the mansion of the Marquis of Huaiyuan.
After finally sending these young ladies away, Shen Zhuru thought that she could have a quiet meeting, but she didn't expect another young lady from the Yao family to come.
This young lady is about fifteen or sixteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, although she is not a person with outstanding appearance, her facial features are very attractive.
This person's name is Yao Yuerong, the third lady of the tenth room, a daughter of a concubine, fifteen years old this year, and she has reached the age when she can marry her relatives.
"Cousin-in-law, please forgive me for coming uninvited today." Yao Yuerong waited until all the people in the courtyard were gone, and then she came to visit, and the first thing she said when she met her was to ask for sin.
"Sister Yuerong doesn't need to be like this, I just borrowed Yao's Mansion, you are the real master, as the host's family came to visit the guests, how can there be anything uninvited, but I am very surprised why you didn't come with the tenth aunt and chose to come here at this time, could it be that you fancy the meal that is about to eat, and you specially came to me to eat?" Shen Zhuru said and made a harmless joke, which made Yao Yuerong's originally somewhat restrained body relax a little.
"My cousin really likes to joke, in fact, I didn't want to come in the future, but my mother didn't choose me, and I could only come to see my cousin secretly after my mother and a few sisters left. I was worried that my cousin would be angry because of this, but now it seems that I am thinking too much. Yao Yuerong sat aside, with a faint smile on her face, but this smile revealed a pair of dimples, which was very charming.
"Since Sister Yuerong has already come, there must be something to say, I think it's time to make dinner before the time comes, why don't you stay and talk about things after eating, okay?" Shen Zhuru glanced at the sky and invited with a smile.
"Thank you cousin-in-law for your kindness, I actually came only for a little thing, and I don't need to stay for long, and the matter of eating is still forgotten, so as not to make my mother unhappy if she knows." Yao Yuerong refused Shen Zhuru's invitation, which surprised her slightly.
"Even so, Sister Yuerong will tell me what you mean, I'll listen."
Yao Yuerong was silent for a moment, sorted out what she wanted to say, and then opened her mouth and said, "I don't know how my cousin-in-law and the Marquis of Huaiyuan have a relationship?" Maybe you can speak in front of the Hou Ye? ”
Shen Zhuru's eyes flashed slightly, narrowed her eyes, and responded with a light smile: "Barely a friend." As for your so-called whether you can say it or not, I can only say that even if you have the opportunity to say it, Hou Ye himself has his own opinions, and he will not agree to it just because I say it. So, you're really not a good question to answer. ”
"Cousin, please don't get me wrong, I don't want to rely on my cousin-in-law to have a relationship with Hou Ye, but I want to know if my cousin-in-law can speak in front of Hou Ye, can she ask Hou Ye a favor on my behalf and find a man named Cao Dawei under him. I want to meet him. Yao Yuerong couldn't help lowering her head as she spoke, slightly helplessly stirring the hem of her skirt, quite nervous.
When Shen Zhuru saw her like this, how could she not know why.
It is obvious that Yao Yuerong has fallen in love with a man named Yao Dawei, and this person is working under Su Luoquan, and this time she secretly came to ask her about this person, thinking that there should be a small story between the two, but the result of the story is whether it is the falling flowers and the intention to flow ruthlessly, or whether the two are happy.
"Cao Dawei, could it be that my sister has taken a fancy to this person? I remember that my sister is not married yet, is it ......"
Yao Yuerong immediately blushed her cheeks, after all, she was thin-skinned, and Shen Zhuru guessed the matter.
"Actually, my sister's request doesn't have to be Hou Ye to help. It just so happens that I know a guard captain named Cao Daxiong next to Huaiyuanhou, just listening to the name, it is very similar to the Cao Dawei you are looking for, maybe it is two brothers, I believe that asking him will know better. It's just that if you ask someone, how do I meet you? You can't just take it to Yaofu. ”
"Don't. The house can not let strange men into the door at will, just on the first day of the seventh month, I can go to Fahua Temple with my big sister to incense, Fahua Temple has a mountain peak called Wuzhi Peak, there is a moon pavilion on the five finger peak, if my cousin asks the news of that person, let him go to the moon pavilion, I will wait for him there. If he doesn't come, I'll go there on the fifteenth day of every month until the beginning of spring next year, and if he's still in the future, I'll take that thought and obediently obey my mother's arrangement. ”
Yao Yuerong's open-minded expression touched Shen Zhuru a few points.
Suddenly, it became a little clear that this ancient woman would have her own choice in terms of marriage, especially a woman from a concubine.
If you meet the object you like, if there is no one to help, the final result may only be fruitless.
"Okay, I'll ask for you, I just hope it doesn't get you in trouble."
"Thank you, cousin, no matter what the result is, I appreciate your help." Yao Yuerong blessed Shen Zhuru as she spoke, with a grateful face.
Now there are three days left before the first day of the new year, which is enough for Shen Zhuru to help with this.
I'm afraid that if the person Yao Yuerong is looking for is not in the capital, even if the other party has a heart, I'm afraid the final result will not be too good.
Of course, Shen Zhuru didn't curse the other party to succeed, but just took precautions to let Yao Yuerong be mentally prepared.
After getting Shen Zhuru's promise, Yao Yuerong immediately left Mercury Garden, if she came quickly, she would also go fast.
Mu Fenghua pinched the time to come back, just in time for lunch, less than half an hour after eating here, there was a housekeeper Li from Yao Mansion who came to invite Shen Zhuru and Mu Fenghua to go to the Yao Mansion meeting room together, it is said that there are distinguished guests who come to the door to see the two by name, and this guest, the entire Yao Mansion can not afford to offend......
Shen Zhuru didn't know why, Mu Fenghua was also a little confused, who would come to them.
If Su Luoquan came, Steward Li's attitude would not be so squeaky, even if he asked Steward Li the identity of the other party, his answer would only be that of an honored guest.
When I came to the living room of Yaofu as promised, I saw three ladies in the house accompanying me as soon as I entered the door, several lords and Lin Jingru, the eldest lady of the big house, accompanied by Lin Jingru, in the living room.
Shen Zhuru was attracted by several masters of the Yao family and this strange woman in advance, but she didn't notice the guards standing on the side, and when she did, Shen Zhuru immediately secretly said that trouble was coming.
I saw that the guard standing on the side of this woman was none other than Guangliu and Guangqi, who only took Mu Fenghua away yesterday but were scared away by Su Luoquan.
In this way, the woman sitting on the throne is none other than the Princess Hanping mentioned by Su Luoquan.
Princess Hanping raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the door, she was attracted by Mu Fenghua at first sight, she didn't see Shen Zhuru standing beside her at all, she looked at Mu Fenghua from head to toe, and that look reminded Shen Zhuru of the four words of cargo evaluation.
Shen Zhuru raised her eyes to look at Mu Fenghua, seeing him with a blank look on her face, she smiled stupidly, if she hadn't been standing beside him, she hadn't noticed that his fists were clenched heavily, obviously enduring that kind of gaze that hurt his self-esteem.
"You are Mu Fenghua?" Princess Hanping asked, staring at Mu Fenghua with burning eyes.
Mu Fenghua's neck shrank slightly, blinked his innocent eyes, and approached Shen Zhuru's side.
"Lady, that person is looking at me, I'm afraid." Mu Fenghua grabbed Shen Zhuru's arm and stood behind her, looking around with a scared look.
"Don't be afraid, just show people, there won't be a piece of meat, good." Shen Zhuru patted Mu Fenghua's arm and accompanied the acting, pretending not to know the identity of Princess Hanping.
"Bold, this is Her Royal Highness Princess Hanping, don't hurry up and kneel down to say goodbye." Guangliu stared at him and scolded loudly.
Shen Zhuru was stunned for a moment, and then she was frightened, lowered her head, and said: "The princess is angry, the little woman comes from a small place, and there are no big rules in the direction of a small place, so she doesn't know how to see the rules that a big man should have, and I accidentally offended the princess just now, and asked the princess to forgive me." Forgive the little woman the sin of ignorance of the women of the people. ”
As soon as Shen Zhuru's words came out, Princess Hanping's original words really couldn't help but swallow, and she couldn't open her mouth to give Shen Zhuru a dismount.
Everyone admits that she comes from a small place and doesn't understand the rules, if she takes the opportunity to make trouble and spread it to the palace, she will definitely not have her good fruit to eat, and it will not be reasonable.
"This princess is not such a foolish person, and she will not worry about you because of this little thing. However, you just said that he was your husband? But why do I see that you are still perfect, even if you are newly married, it shouldn't be like this. Little sister, it's not right to lie. You know? ”
Princess Hanping's words directly broke the matter between Shen Zhuru and Mu Fenghua, even if it was the Yao family, many people saw this problem, and most of them blamed it on a fool who didn't understand anything, so he would delay it again and again, but he would not point it out directly.
Who would have thought that this suddenly visiting Princess Hanping would actually deny the relationship between Mu Fenghua and Shen Zhuru as husband and wife with this matter, which undoubtedly made everyone in the hall think about the arrival of this Princess Hanping, could it be related to that rumor?
Involuntarily, everyone in the Yao family focused their eyes on Mu Fenghua, secretly glanced at Princess Hanping a few times, and each had their own thoughts.
Shen Zhuru couldn't help pursing her lips when Princess Hanping asked her.
Originally, this matter was just a matter between her and Mu Fenghua, even if everyone saw something, they wouldn't say it so straightforwardly, but when this matter came out of Princess Hanping's mouth, this purpose was intriguing.
"You are not allowed to bully the lady, she is my lady, she is my lady, she is not lying." Mu Fenghua stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Shen Zhuru's body, glaring at Princess Hanping, both in her speech and expression. (To be continued.) )
