Chapter 8 Suspicion

Several of them are calm and calm, even the most impatient Shen San, who can be quiet when he really encounters things. Therefore, despite the turmoil in their hearts, several people did not show their faces.

Master Shen and Second Master Shen glanced at each other, and the eldest lady He asked casually, "Sister Rong, why are you called Miss Shanghua's wife?" Could it be that Sister Rong knows the people of the Hua family? ”

Third Master Shen and Young Master Shen Yin secretly looked at Xu Qirong's expression.

Xu Qirong realized that he was too eager and almost exposed himself, so he hurriedly made a look of annoyance, and said: "I heard that Jinzhou and the capital are next to each other, when the second brother mentioned the Hua family this morning, I wanted to ask the girl in Jinzhou if she read the same book as the girl in our capital?" What games do they usually play? Then he raised a smile and coquettishly said to the eldest lady, "Auntie, anyway, our family wants to do business with the Hua family, invite Miss Hua Family, and the eldest aunt can also talk to Mrs. Hua about the feeding in charge, and let Miss Hua play with us." ”

He Shi glanced at Shen San, Shen Huiqiu shook his head, he couldn't tell the truth of Xu Qirong's words.

He Shi thought for a moment and said to Xu Qirong: "It's not impossible to invite the Hua family to participate in the flower viewing banquet. It's just that we don't know if there are girls in the Hua family who can play with you. ”

Shen Yahui is a noisy person, and when she heard it, she immediately chirped: "Naturally, there are, even if there are no concubines, there are always concubines." At that time, we have to ask what fancy silk flowers are popular in Jinzhou, what kind of clothes, and ah, Jinzhou is so cold, I'm afraid the grease is different from what our Yangzhou girls use. ”

Xu Qirong glanced at Shen Yahui and knew that with her mixing, this matter was completed. So he made a sensible appearance and said to He: "It's Rong'er who talks a lot, which makes the eldest lady embarrassed." The eldest lady doesn't ask in the following post, if it is convenient for the Hua family, invite them to come, if it is not convenient, it is fine. ”

He Shi nodded, sighing in his heart, with such an urgent person as Shen Yahui, in comparison, it seems that Xu Qirong is not so eager for the Hua family. Who was the one who passed the note seemed even more confusing.

Xu Qirong breathed a sigh of relief and began to eat seriously. Xu Qirong's appetite is very good today, everyone is concerned about the third master's departure tomorrow, and they didn't notice Xu Qirong's side, Yu Qiu persuaded Xu Qirong a few words, and he didn't dare to say more. By the time Mrs. Shen found out, Xu Qirong had already asked the maid to serve the third bowl of rice, and she was startled.

Old Mrs. Shen hurriedly asked Ruizhu to get Xu Qirong's bowl: "Sister Rong, drink some more soup, don't eat rice, what can I do if I eat too much food!" ”

Xu Qirong nodded, and then remembered that he was only six years old now, so he watched Ruizhu go to help her fill a small half bowl of pigeon soup.

Because the third old man was going to travel far the next day, the old lady would inevitably have something to explain to her son, so after dinner, everyone dispersed early, and Liu's mother was already waiting outside, and Mrs. Shen called Liu's mother in and told her not to hug Xu Qirong, and let her walk back by herself to eliminate food.

Xu Qirong blushed with shame, she really didn't have anything to eat, what happened to her hunger after this afternoon's hard work?

Master Shen and his entourage returned to Sanglin Courtyard, waved their hands, and did not let Brother Yin and his daughter-in-law serve, and asked the little maid to fetch water to wash.

Master Shen was not particularly worried about today's affairs, he felt that since Shen Huiqiu would go to Jinzhou tomorrow, everything would be solved.

The eldest lady He couldn't help but chatter with Shen Huizhi, but fortunately, she was cautious, and she took all the maids and mother-in-law away before she spoke: "Master, it is said that I am an aunt, and I shouldn't say this about my niece, but the matter is very important, and I have to be suspicious." Do you think there's something wrong with Sister Rong today? ”

Shen Huizhi subconsciously wanted to reprimand He for being ridiculous, but when he saw that He personally served him to wash his feet, he couldn't say anything about the reprimand, and only said: "You mean that during dinner, she mentioned that she asked the Hua family's daughters to come to the flower viewing banquet?" The Xu family is an official eunuch family, which is different from us. People like the Xu family have to hold a flower-viewing banquet at least once or twice a month. Sister Rong has been coming to our house for more than a month, and it is normal to have such thoughts. ”

He knew that Shen Hui was a little annoyed, but he had to say: "It can't be me, the niece who is my aunt, arranging my own niece." You also know that Sister Rong has been coming to our house for more than a month, and for more than a month, she is indifferent to everyone, and she is only willing to nest in the Shuangpu Courtyard and refuse to come out on weekdays, why is she suddenly willing to be close to everyone today? ”

He Shi said again: "And Brother He'er, he has always been open-mouthed, you don't know how tired Sister Rong was with him before, why is the second cousin longer and the second cousin shorter today?" ”

Shen Hui knew: "Sister Rong is sensible, isn't this good?" ”

He shook his head: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon." Think about it, it was Sister Rong who proposed to find Brother Crane to play with the pot today, it was Sister Rong who mentioned holding a flower appreciation banquet at dinner, and it was Sister Rong who mentioned inviting the daughters of the Hua family. ”

Shen Huizhi thought about He's words, and felt that something was wrong, but he still didn't believe it: "Sister Rong is only six years old this year, and although the maid who follows her is literate, she is not as good as Sister Rong's writing!" Since she came to the Shen family, Sister Rong has never had contact with outsiders, where did she get that note? It's not her! Shen Huizhi shook his head, "It won't be her!" ”

He Shi glanced at Shen Huizhi, helped him dry the water on his feet, took off his shoes and socks and washed the rest of the water, and said: "Do you remember that year, you spoiled Aunt Gui, and that Aunt Gui was pregnant, so she had other thoughts, and hid the red flower pollen by herself, and put it in the bird's nest porridge I gave her." I just married into your family, and I am also arrogant, I usually don't give Aunt Gui a good look, but that time I gave me bird's nest porridge, so everyone in the house believed Aunt Gui. ”

Shen Huizhi didn't expect He to suddenly mention such an old matter, he also believed Aunt Gui at that time, and because of this, He lost their first child. couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but he stiffened his neck and said, "It's a matter of time and time, what are you going to do now!" Didn't I send Aunt Gui away! Look at the top and bottom of our house, who still carried the aunt through the room? ”

He naturally didn't want to settle old accounts with Shen Huizhi, she herself did something wrong at the beginning. Moreover, because of guilt, Shen Huizhi has indeed been excellent to her over the years. smiled at the moment: "Then do you remember, who told the man of the Shen family not to carry his aunt and not to have sex?" ”

"Mother of nature!" Shen Huizhi replied without thinking about it.

He sighed: "The men of the Shen family are all the precious children and grandchildren of the ancestors, even if they feel sorry for us as daughters-in-law, the ancestors will not do this!" Sir, think about it again. ”

As soon as he said this, Shen Huizhi also became serious, at that time the matter was quite big, it was impossible for him to forget it, and after thinking about it, he remembered everything: "It's the fourth sister." ”

He nodded: "At that time, my sister-in-law was only nine years old, but she was very smart, and the whole house thought that I had harmed Aunt Gui, only she had a way to return my innocence, and there was a way for you to simply break off the mind of carrying my aunt to the house, even the ancestor didn't say anything." ”

Speaking of Shen Yunying, He was very grateful: "At that time, I asked her why she wanted to help her sister-in-law and not her brother. The fourth sister said that they were all women, and when she saw the appearance of the back house of the Shen Mansion, she thought of what she would look like when she arrived at her husband's house in the future. If she can't even manage the back house of the Shen Mansion, when she arrives at her husband's house in the future, won't even the bones be gnawed by others! ”

It was the first time Shen Huizhi had heard this from He's mouth, and he couldn't help but be a little silent. This is actually a bit deviant, but it is his favorite sister who says this.

He said: "My sister-in-law is nine years old, she has such a ability, Sister Rong was taught by her sister-in-law, if you say that this note was put by Sister Rong, I still believe it." If it was Sister Hui'er's heartless and unaccustomed person, I didn't believe it at all. ”

Shen Huizhi was also a little hesitant at this time: "What about the flower viewing banquet?" ”

Ho said: "The flower viewing banquet is indeed a good idea. If the Hua family really wants to cooperate with the Shen family, they will definitely let the female relatives of the family come to this flower-viewing banquet, and the women's family will never be ignorant of what the man's family does. If the note was really put by Sister Rong, I'm afraid that this is what she said when she proposed to hold a flower appreciation banquet. ”

Shen Hui was angry: "You have thought about it, tell me what to do with such a big pass?" ”

He shook his head and said: "Sister Rong is still young after all, and you also said that the note is not something she can write, although she is smart, she does not understand the world, if she is used, what goes wrong, how can we be worthy of Yun Ying, who died early?" That's why I want to send my big maid silver cup to her. ”

"I'm just afraid that you'll think I'm too ignorant to insert eyeliner next to my niece!" Ho said.

Shen Huizhi thought about it, hesitated for a while, thought of Shen Yunying again, and finally said, "I don't have any opinion, but how can the old lady say it?" What does Sister Rong think? Don't let this break the uncle-nephew relationship. ”

He smiled: "How can I not understand? It's just a flower feast to let Yinzhan follow her. If Sister Rong didn't make any moves during the flower viewing banquet, then this matter naturally had nothing to do with her. ”

Shen Huizhi felt that it made sense when he heard it, so he nodded and agreed. He saw that Master Shen agreed, so he asked the maids and women to come in and pour water to wash their feet and make the bed.
