Chapter 9: A White-Eyed Wolf
Tang Shaohe didn't dare to stay by Qi Yanxiao's side anymore, so he hurriedly agreed, took his younger brother Jinghua's hand, and walked out of the door of Hemanlou Restaurant quickly.
Qi Yanxiao pursed his lips, tapped his chin, and saw a man quickly flash out of the door, quietly following behind Tang Shaohe's two siblings, but she didn't notice.
When the two siblings arrived at the door of Wende Private School, Tang Shaohe told his younger brother that this was the place where he would come to study the day after tomorrow, where there would be a gentleman who would teach him to read and write, and asked him to work hard to gain fame in the future.
After a while, the two siblings returned to the market on East Street, Tang Shaohe bought some dry food and some new clothes for his younger brother, and after preparing some daily necessities, he left with his younger brother.
After returning to the small courtyard of the North Chamber, Tang Shaohe bathed his younger brother and changed his clothes, let him lie on the bed to rest, and wait for dinner to call him.
When the night fell quietly, Tang Shaohe was so tired that he collapsed on the bed, closed his eyes and rested, Qi Yanxiao's majestic and handsome face appeared in his mind, and he blushed and heartbeat when he thought about it, but he didn't know how this could happen.
I have to pack everything tomorrow, thinking of this, with a strange and different mood, the corners of her eyes were slightly curved, and she fell asleep deeply.
In General Meng's Mansion, in the flower hall of the main courtyard, there were two middle-aged men and women sitting on the seats, and they looked at the man sitting opposite them with kind eyes on their faces.
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "Shilin, in two years, how about we welcome her home as soon as that girl is over?" ”
Meng Shilin replied noncommittally: "Dad, mother, how do you know how you are if you haven't looked at her yet?" What if it doesn't work? ”
"You can rest assured, that General Tang once worked with your father, how can you not know who he is, not to mention that Mrs. Tang is Shen Shuhua, the daughter of Shen Yuanyang, a bachelor of Hanlin, who is from a scholarly family and is famous far and wide. Her daughter-in-law matches you, it's enough to match, where else do you have to be suspicious? The middle-aged woman pursed her lips and smiled, looking at her filial and gentle son in front of her, her heart was full of joy and relief.
Meng Shilin still wanted to speak, but his father spoke first: "You don't have to say more, your mother and I have agreed on a date, and this matter has been decided!" ”
After this incident, Meng Shilin couldn't understand what kind of charm that girl had that made her parents remember it so much, if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely check it out.
Early the next morning, Tang Shaohe took the newly bought clothes to wash them, looking at the clothes blown by the wind under the sun, his mood was extremely comfortable, as if he had a feeling of bitterness.
But she knows that calm on the surface does not mean smooth in the future, because there are too many uncertain factors, so she can't take it lightly to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
She turned around and went into the house, repacked the cage that had been messed up yesterday, and finally took out the double gold ring of the silk arm in the box and stroked it again, and then put it back in the box and placed it at the bottom of the cage.
She hopes that time will pass soon, and after marrying General Meng, maybe she can still live with her younger brother, she believes in General Meng's character.
My brother was still sleeping, she moved a bamboo stool to the yard to bask in the sun, the warm sunlight dispelled the chill on her body, the whole person was lazy, so comfortable!
At this moment, Cui Hong hurriedly walked up to her, gasped and said, "Shaohe, hurry, come with me, the eldest lady wants to come to you and say that you will meet the old lady of the Anning Hou Mansion." ”
"The old lady of the Hou Mansion of Anning?" Tang Shaohe raised his head and asked, seeing Cui Hong nodding affirmatively, his face turned pale, how could things come so quickly?
I remember that when Marquis Xu took a concubine, it was just after she had just finished the ceremony, but there was still more than a year to go, so what did the old lady do when she came to see her? Could it be the meaning of the eldest uncle? No way! This time, she can't let the eldest aunt handle it at will!
"Cui Hong, you go over first, I'll tidy up and come." With a smile on her face, she pushed Cui Hong towards the gate of the courtyard, "You go and see what else the eldest aunt has to order, lest you stay here for a long time, and the eldest aunt blames you, and it will be difficult for you and me to do it." ”
"You're right! Then I'll go first, you have to hurry! Cui Hong finished speaking anxiously, and trotted away without looking back.
Tang Shaohe smiled and shook his head, walked back to the bamboo chair and sat down for a long time, pinching his fingers and counting the hours, thinking that the pot of tea would go down, and the old lady of An Ninghou should not be able to sit still.
She stood up, walked back into the house with a smile in her eyes, picked up a comb and messed her hair up randomly, and put on her makeup to a miserable white face, and then went out of the yard satisfied.
When he arrived at the flower hall of the main courtyard, Tang Shaohe saw Mrs. An Ninghou sitting next to the eldest uncle, but saw that she was wearing peony flowers, a vermilion cloak, a purple gauze shirt, a headdress and clothes were extremely gorgeous, and her expression seemed to be arrogant and domineering.
The eldest aunt threw a cold look at her, but her face showed a kind and kind look, and said with a smile: "Shaohe, this is the old lady of An Ninghou, you come and see you." ”
"Yes, slave and maid obey!" She deliberately showed her humble identity in front of her eldest uncle, she believed that Mrs. An Ninghou would despise her even more, and she would definitely not find a maid to be a concubine for her son.
The eldest aunt glared at Tang Shaohe coldly, so angry that she almost turned her back on it, this girl is a white-eyed wolf, and she still thinks that these two sisters and brothers are treasures, and when it comes to a critical moment, it is not the same when she does not exist?
She lowered her head, completely ignoring the unkind eyes of the eldest aunt, walked up to the old lady of An Ninghou and saluted her, and said weakly: "The slave has seen the old lady." ”
Old Madam An Ninghou frowned in disgust, turned sideways, didn't look at her, and said to the eldest uncle: "Guiru, what are you letting this maid do?" That day, I heard that your daughter was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so I thought I would come over and see what your baby daughter looked like, so I could find you the most worthy of lifelong and rich son-in-law in the capital...... Why do you still want to hide your daughter and not let people see it for the rest of your life? ”
Tang Shaohe lowered his head lower, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth was bent at the largest angle, and next, it was up to the eldest aunt to dare to offend Mrs. An Ninghou.
Li Guiru picked up the teacup and took a sip lightly, then said with a smile: "What did the old lady say, it's just that the little girl is still studying at her husband's place, and it may take a while to come to see you." ”
"That's fine, then I'll wait here." How could Mrs. An Ninghou be the fuel-efficient lamp, she must have already heard of it, but she just made up her mind to spend it with her aunt.
Tang Shaohe's heart was full of joy, if this continues, the eldest aunt will definitely be no match for Mrs. Anning Hou!
