Chapter 13: The Surge

In Fuhua Courtyard, Shen Rong and they arrived first.

Mrs. Shen had just had breakfast in the ear room, and after she had finished her mouth and cleaned her hands, she was helped by Mama Gui to the plum blossom and vermilion lacquer Arhat bed in the flower hall, she was wearing a gown with the word Wanfu, and she was wearing a crown of eight treasures of gold hairpins on her head.

Her eyes stopped on Shen Rong's body, beckoned her to come closer, her voice was like a bronze bell, and she said: "How many words do you recognize, in the future, I will follow Sister Ying'er and Sister Lin to study and learn words in the Jade Study, although the Shen family is not from a scholarly family, but they can't lose this integrity." You weren't in the house before, but now that you're back, you'll take away your previous nature, understand? ”

When Shen Hui and Shen Lan reached the age of discussing marriage, they did not have to go to the Jade Study to study, but learned how to deal with the affairs of the inner house and be a good housewife.

The sixth girl, Shen Zhi, had just passed the age of six, and she was making a fuss about not wanting to go to the Jade Study, but the Li family couldn't resist her, so she discussed with Mrs. Shen and waited for Sister Zhi to go when she was older.

Therefore, only Shen Ying and Shen Lin studied with her in the Jade Study.

She responded seriously: "My granddaughter understands that she has just finished recognizing "The Female Ring", and now she has read a little "The Legend of the Martyr", and she also knows nothing. ”

Old Madam Shen listened to her gentle voice, as if she had a daughter's posture, so she nodded with satisfaction, and at the end of the hour, people from all rooms and courtyards entered the house one after another.

Li led a pair of daughters, and for the first time gave a big gift to the old lady, her willow leaves and thin eyebrows, and her red lips opened slightly: "Mother, Sister Lin and Sister Zhi both miss their father, I want to take them to Jianghang for a trip, mother, otherwise, it is half a year younger, the second sister-in-law is not also back from White Horse City, we will not stay long, we will come back in a few days." ”

Li glanced at Zhao inadvertently, and the implication was that she would not stay in White Horse City like Zhao. As he spoke, he put Zhao's previous notions on the bright side.

The body of the Zhao family, who was under the head of the Yang family, stiffened, and he didn't take advantage of it, so it was difficult to speak.

Old Madam Shen glanced at Li and let go of the jade ring on her finger, "This matter will wait until the Buddha Bathing Festival." ”

That's what he said, but the meaning is very clear, and Li's thing is acceptable.

Mrs. Shen pays attention to the Buddha, except for the Buddha bathing festival on the eighth day of the fourth month, and the sacrifice day of the old lady Shen on July 26, she will go to Shanzheng Temple to worship the Buddha and eat fast after a few months.

Or stay for a few days in the incense room at Zenshoji Temple.

Li happily replied, and after the people came out of Fuhua Courtyard, Li stayed alone.

Old Madam Shen glanced at her: "Still doing something here, go and go, hurry up, don't you are upset here." ”

"Mother, I also want to leave after the Buddha Bathing Festival, I heard that the Buddha Bathing Day is very spiritual." Li shyly lowered half of his face, and stretched out his hand to stroke his stomach: "Sister Lin and Sister Zhi are also older, I am afraid that in a few years, it will be even more difficult, mother, you also know that Pingyuan has always wanted a son, and I also want to add a little grandson to my mother." ”

Li smiled lightly with a low face.

After listening to Li's words, Old Madam Shen was wiped out no matter how angry she was.

But Mrs. Shen still asked her to hurry out of the house, she smiled stupidly, "Mother, I heard that the sister-in-law's family donated a seven-grade civil official to Second Master Yang, Mother, it's not that I'm troublesome, Old Lady Yang is just a showman, and the eldest master is just a fellow acquaintance of Jiaozhou, even if he relies on Yulu, it is not enough to donate an official to Second Master Yang. ”

She saw Mrs. Shen listening intently, and then continued: "Sister-in-law is now the housekeeper, the account room on the grange, the steward has changed and changed, and now they have become the people around the sister-in-law. ”

When Old Madam Shen heard this, her face turned a little colder, "If she is a person who eats inside and out!" Her face was pale, and she didn't say the following words, but said: "Jiangzhou's Grange, you go to see the situation first, and go to your second aunt's house on the way to see if her body is still healthy." After sending the Li family away, Old Madam Shen immediately called Mama Gui into the house.

"Mama Gui, I remember that your son was working on the Grange?"

Mama Gui was slightly stunned, the fat on her cheeks trembled slightly because of walking, she half-knelt under the old lady's knees, while helping the old lady knead her muscles and bones, and live the blood, while saying: "The old lady atoned for her sins, the atom made trouble in the Zhuangzi a few days ago, and was sent to the field by the field steward on the Zhuangzi to do farm work. "Mama Gui was afraid that something had caused the old lady to be angry, so she was frightened and cautious in her words and deeds.

"Steward Tian? Which field steward. Old Madam Shen has been loose over the years, but unexpectedly, the steward of Zhuangzi has changed, and she doesn't know: "What about Lin Luo's family?" ”

Lin Luo and his family were old people who came with her, and because of their age, they couldn't do much work in the house, so Mrs. Shen assigned the two to the grange as stewards to spend their old age.

The jewels and jade on her body made her face even more gloomy. The flowing purple and fragrant grass in the flower hall did not dare to gasp.

Mama Gui sighed deeply: "The old slave doesn't know very well, but I heard the atom mention two sentences, it seems to be the eldest lady's maiden uncle." ”

"Bang!"

A celadon ice-patterned tea cup shattered at her feet, and the tea instantly wet the hem of her blue peach embroidered skirt, round by circle, like a new pattern embroidered.

Mama Gui was still kneeling, even if the fragments fell under her knees, she didn't dare to move, and the whole room was silent.

"The courage of the sky is still against the sky, I haven't lost my breath yet, even my people dare to move! Lin Luo's family! Old Madam Shen was so angry that her face turned red, and her hand was firmly supporting the black lacquer handle beside the bed.

"Old slave, let's send someone to inquire......" Mama Gui was frightened by Old Madam Shen, the first time she saw Old Madam Shen move so much, even if the second old man was married, she was not so strict, she hurriedly said: "Old Madam, don't be angry, you are angry, and it is not a few old men who are distressed." ”

"Humph!" The old lady sneered: "You go to investigate this matter first, don't alarm others." "Old Madam Shen plans to wait for the Li family to come back from Jianghang, and after checking the Jiangzhou Grange, she will settle the account.

The Shen Mansion looks calm, but in fact, there is already an undercurrent.

In the Jinlin Courtyard, as soon as Dongmei asked Ruyi to remove the food, Sang Zhi opened the curtain and said, "Girl, the third master is here." ”

Before her words landed, Shen Huo entered the house in a hurry.

Shen Huo gave Sang Zhi a look, and the maids who were waiting in the house were sent outside.

"What's yours is yours, Ah Rong, quickly give me the red jade pendant, I just went to the academy to show the Qi family boy, so I changed it back."
