091 Trade-offs
Fahrenheit didn't sleep in the main room, and Ziying and Fusang were still cleaning up cups and plates in the flower hall. The waning moon faintly shines on the two ginkgo trees in the courtyard, the verandah made of vermilion and jade is as gorgeous as a Qionglou in the quiet night, and the high cornices are like a circle printed on the canopy, magnificent and quiet.
Fahrenheit sat in the moon window, lazily removing makeup in the mirror. Her skin glowed as white as jade.
Shen Yan stood on the stone steps, and when he saw this scene, he suddenly couldn't move again.
She remembered the scene after Fahrenheit's death, it was early in the morning, and she escaped Mama Huang and the others and slipped into the main room. She saw Fahrenheit leaning on the couch, dressed in perfect order, as if ready to go out to meet a guest. There was black, dried blood at the corners of her lips, and her face was as pale as paper. Her eyes widened slightly, and her brow furrowed with a slight hint of anger. She died a happy and neat death, but there was no reason.
She still can't think of why she has dove poison, at first she thought she was acting rashly, but then she recalled her expression when she died, if she was self-poisoned, then why did she have an angry expression? She didn't seem to have thought she would be poisoned, which suggests that there was something very wrong with her death.
Because of this, she hated Shen Mi for so long in her previous life.
After all, on the night Shen Mi came back from prison, he was the only one who went to Hua's room.
But if it was really Shen Mi, if he was really so mad, how could he be depressed to death because of Hua's death?
The cause of her death remains a mystery to this day. If she doesn't untie it, she'll always be standing in a crater, and she could do it again at any time!
At this moment, she suddenly didn't want to sue Fahrenheit again.
She didn't want to take her with her to expose the Liu family at this time.
The trouble that Shen Mi is in at the moment comes from the Liu family and it is just her speculation, if she ventures to find the Liu family at this time, and there is no evidence, if she denies it, wouldn't she be lifting a stone and shooting herself in the foot?
Even if there is evidence, the dowry lost by Hua in the previous life has already been raised, but the cause of her death has not been ascertained, who poisoned her? She didn't believe the poison came from Fahrenheit herself. That dove poison didn't just get his hands on it, Hua just wanted to die, and he never had such thoughts before Shen Mi came back. It must have been that night that she couldn't think of something by herself, and someone took the opportunity to poison her.
Who let her die? Is it Liu, or is it someone else?
The two things are so close to each other, it's hard to say that there is no connection between them, if she boldly goes to the third room, one is that she can't help the Liu family, and the other is that the only sign is also extinguished, and this thread is broken, she can prevent it in the future, and how to prevent it?
Of course, she shouldn't have shown her flaws at this time, but should have waited silently for the fish to take the bait.
If she told Fahrenheit all this, it would be difficult for Fahrenheit to calm down with Fahrenheit's temper. Even if you calm down, it is impossible to completely make people completely undetectable.
Liu's previous life deceived Hua's money in the end and did not show her feet, it can be seen that she is acting carefully, if she is allowed to see something, she will inevitably lose her efforts, and it may even be possible that not only will she not be able to catch her handle, but on the contrary, she will simply pit Shen Mi in the depths - after all, if she wants to stay in the Shen Mansion, she will have to be ruthless to death.
She stood on the stone steps, the ginkgo biloba leaves rattling above her head, like a chaotic mind.
Rouge saw that she rushed to the door but didn't go in, so she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and when she suddenly looked up at the treetops, she walked over again: "Girl, what's going on?" β
She looked up at the window and shook her head.
Fahrenheit had already seen her in the window, and before she could greet her, she had already walked in, so she got up and said, "Your Uncle Lu is gone?" β
Shen Yan nodded, walked to the couch and sat down, looking up at her mother carefully. People say that she looks like Fahrenheit eight or nine points, but she thinks she is less than half of her, and Fahrenheit's joy, laughter, anger and anger are all from the heart, without the slightest hypocrisy, so people often love her. But in such a world, people like her are destined to encounter a lot of setbacks and cold receptions, just because there are too many sanctimonious people in this world.
"See what?"
Fahrenheit noticed her strangeness, unconsciously touched her face, and then went to probe her forehead, and finally pouted at her: "Weird! β
Shen Yan threw himself into her arms and hugged her waist.
"Mother, you promise me that no matter what happens, you will never remember that you still have a daughter to take care of. If you weren't around, I would be bullied by many people, I would become a child without a mother's upbringing, I would be forced to marry a herd of wives and concubines, I would fight with my concubines and concubines all year round in the back house, and I would die early because of years of anxiety......"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Fahrenheit was stunned and hurriedly helped her up: "What's going on, what's wrong with your father?" What did Lu Ingot tell you? β
Shen Yan's face was held tightly by her, her still slightly baby fat face was squeezed into a meat bun, and a pair of apricot eyes were like two large longans embedded in the meat bun.
She brushed her hand away and said calmly, "I didn't say anything, just said that my father would come back later tonight." β
Fahrenheit stared at her for a moment before sitting down, "I thought something was wrong." After speaking, he stared at her angrily: "It's okay, what are you telling me for no reason?" β
Although it was a complaining tone, when he looked at his daughter, his expression still showed pity. Shen Yan is still young, she has never thought about these problems in the future, in her opinion, this is not a problem, because she will never let her daughter marry such a person. Even if she is wearing a lantern, she has to choose a husband like Shen Mi for her.
She paused, moved over and hugged her again: "Anyway, my mother promised me that no matter what happens, I must think about me." Although I am not good, don't I also have a head and two hands? If anything happens to you while your father is away, tell me about it, and I'll be obedient. All in all, I am your daughter, I need you to raise me, and naturally I have the obligation to be filial to you. β
Fahrenheit, who has never been sensational, has made a little wooden.
"I know, I know, don't you just want to remind me that there is such a drag bottle as you!" She stroked her hair and reached out to push her away, pretending not to be moved. "What's crazy about this?"
Shen Yan rubbed her face in front of her abdomen and shook her head, "I just want to tell my mother, I want to see you and your father grow old so much." β
Fahrenheit smiled.
Gently glared at her, opened the copper drawer of the bedside table, and took out two or three from a pile of silver tickets and slapped them into her hand: "If you want, buy it yourself." You don't need to keep it. I have doubled the profits of your father's two shops this year, and I have made a lot of money from those restaurants and jewelry stores, so I don't need you to save me money. β
She really can't learn to teach her daughter needlework like Mrs. Hua, and she doesn't have much successful life experience to teach, except for business, except for making money, she can't do anything.
But this did not affect her mood of doting on her daughter. Although Shen Yan is naughty, she is smart and filial, and she is very relieved that her father taught her to behave in the world. And she really doesn't know how to express her love except to make her live a privileged and rich life.
Shen Yan took the silver ticket and stuffed it into her sleeve, leaned over and rubbed the balsam on her face, and walked out of the door.
When she got to the bottom of the corridor, she lowered her head and took out the silver tickets, looked at them, and turned around and went to the ear room on the far right on the west side. Mama Huang, who was making the bed and preparing to rest, raised her head when she heard the sound and was slightly surprised.
"There's something I have to ask Mama for first."
Shen Yan walked in, closed the door, and said straight to the point.
Seeing her solemn face, Mama Huang hurriedly walked over and moved the brocade to sit down, and said, "In front of the slave maid, what else does the girl say, please or not?" Just tell me what I want. β
Shen Yan sat down and was silent, and then said solemnly: "Mama has accompanied her mother all the way and is the most trustworthy person.
"Don't hide it from my grandmother, my father is out for something, and I don't think I can come back for the time being. I ask my mother to follow my mother from this moment on, if anyone comes to look for her, you will tell me as soon as possible, if I am not there, please write it down word for word and go back to tell me. If your mother has any fluctuations, please pay attention to it from time to time, and don't let her miss it at all.
"Please remember, keeping my mother safe and sound is equivalent to keeping me and my father safe and well."
Shen Yan is naughty and naughty, but she is the most measured in major matters, and now when she says this, Mama Huang is suddenly startled.
Thinking back to what she said, it was shocking every word, and then thinking that Shen Yan had changed a lot in the past few days, and had repeatedly pulled Hua back from the edge of the whirlpool, and he didn't care about it at the moment, so he hurriedly responded first: "What the girl said, the slave and maid will do it." But if there is a half-point difference, just ask me! β
Shen Yan saw that she responded seriously, so he nodded and sat down.
Mama Huang's heart was surging, and she asked, "The girl just said that the second master had an accident, and she dared to ask what happened?" Do you want to sue SΓΉ Master? β
"Not necessarily!"
Shen Yan raised his hand to stop, "Mother is okay for the time being." There is no big deal for my father, and the master doesn't need us to sue him, even if it reaches the ears of the master, someone will definitely pass it on. Mama just listened to what I did. If the matter doesn't spread from now on, you will act as if nothing has happened, and you don't know, you only remember my words, follow your mother carefully, and don't let anyone who has a heart get cheap.
"When the water comes out, I will tell my grandmother to see the person who wants to do this filthy thing in the house. But until then, you can't say these things to anyone, including your mother, and you can't let anyone notice it. β
Mama Huang saw that her face was as solemn as a rock, and she couldn't help but be a little more solemn. R1152
