Chapter 143: Hurry
In the Anyi County Lord's Mansion, although it was Mrs. Wei who took out the tea, this matter should be inseparable from the Zhang family, otherwise the Zhang family would not pretend to be surprised, and pretended to be anxious for her as if she was a kind stepmother.
She took out the purple clay pot and tea set, and made tea for the ladies in the Anyi County Lord's Mansion, Zhang's face changed a little, and when she came back from the Anyi County Lord's Mansion, Zhang's went straight back to the room.
There are two less capable subordinates around Zhang's side, and now he is in such a mood, he will definitely want to find someone to help, just at this time the fifth uncle came, and Zhang's went to the study a little rudely.
The sensitivity of her profession made her feel that the Zhang family at least trusted the fifth uncle, and Brother Huan's kind of liking and dependence on the fifth uncle also required Zhang's nod to have.
Could there be any mystery in this?
"Let people go to the Shen family and tell my uncle to have less contact with the fifth uncle."
Who knows what kind of face the fifth uncle has under the Zhilan jade tree.
……
Shen Jingyuan watched as his wife packed up the things she was going to bring to Wanning.
"Don't pretend to be so many pickles, Wanning is still young and can't eat such salty things, and the small dishes in Yangzhou are not delicious in Beijing, so it's better to take advantage of Wanning's ability to choose her own people, and send the cook at home to Yao's house."
Listening to the old man's babbling, Mrs. Shen straightened her waist, "When did the master be so careful, even the cook thought of it, I had already told Wan Ning, and I sent the cook we brought over to one, so that we can also feel at ease in eating." ”
Shen Jingyuan nodded, "Yao Yiwen has finally done a job. ”
Since Chen Niang was suspended, it was the first time he had mentioned Yao Yiwen calmly.
Mrs. Shen nodded.
Just packed things up. Mother Tong rushed over and told Mrs. Shen what Wan Ning said, "Miss said. No matter what, Uncle should be careful. ”
Mrs. Shen Si felt that Wanning's words made sense, "Let Wanning rest assured, I will persuade the master." ”
After speaking, Tong's mother deliberately glanced at the yard, "Uncle and wife, when the slave and maid came over, they saw that things were being prepared in the yard. What's to be done? ”
Seeing that it is about to reach the coldest season, is it possible that the fourth master Shen and his family have to go away?
Mrs. Shen Si said: "I haven't told Wanning yet, the master wants to go to Xuanhua Mansion." ”
Mother Tong was shocked when she heard this.
"Go to Xuanfu? Isn't it peaceful over there? So close to Warat. How can the fourth master get better. ”
Mrs. Shen Si was also a little worried, "The past two years have been much better, the imperial court has specially stationed soldiers and horses, and the lord will not go to Xuanfu Town." Instead, go around and inquire. I will be able to come back years ago. ”
"It's cold and snowy," Tong's mother felt cold when she thought about it, "it's the north, and it may have snowed at this time, so it's not easy to drive even if it passes." ”
"The family may not be able to get salt in the northwest," Mrs. Shen pursed her lips, "The master is a little anxious, and the whole Shen clan and the guys are waiting for the salt to be exchanged for salt to sell." In case of a mistake, the master can't explain it. It just so happened that someone had a tuntian in the north and wanted to sell the tuntian to our Shen family, and the old man thought about it for several days, saying that he would go and see what he said, even if the northwest side could not supply it in the future, the north could also exchange grain for introduction. ”
Is this going to work?
Mother Tong looked at Mrs. Shen Si, who was frowning, "Why doesn't Mrs. ask Miss and ask Miss to persuade Uncle Master." ”
Mrs. Shen Si glanced at the green curtain behind her, and called Mother Tong to the east room to speak, "After all, our master has the entire Shen family on his shoulders, and those burdens are not something that our women and children can bear, and I have also persuaded it, but the master said that the Shen family can go out of a business road, and it is also a lot of hard work......"
Fourth Master Shen said all these words, it seems that he must go to see Tuntian.
Mother Tong is not good at persuading Mrs. Shen Si again.
Mrs. Shen Si took the opportunity to lead the topic to Wan Ning, "How is Wan Ning?" Can you breathe? ”
Tong's mother said: "Where can it, Zhang's is just frustrated, our wife was divorced from the Yao family, the old lady is very angry, I heard that our young lady is not only back, but also around the big change, as long as the young lady goes to ask for peace, the old lady will roll his eyes angrily, scolding the young lady is a rebel, there will be no good end in the future." ”
Hearing these words, Mrs. Shen Si gritted her teeth in anger, "It's that old thing that doesn't end well." ”
As he spoke, the subordinate brought the things he was going to give to Wan Ning.
Mrs. Shen Si was all separated, "This is a hand guard and knee pad, and you must wear it in a few days." ”
Mother Tong looked at the carved and hollowed out hand stove, "We have a hand stove at home." ”
"I know, I can't help but think of Wanning when I let people buy it," Mrs. Shen Si smiled kindly, "Brother Kun likes it too, and I also specially embroidered a hand stove cover, Brother Kun's is blue, and Wanning's is pink." ”
Looking at Mrs. Shen Si, who spoke carefully, Mother Tong sighed in her heart, the uncle's family is really good to Miss.
……
Coming out of the Shen family, Mother Tong carefully said the words of Mrs. Shen Si.
Wan Ning stretched out her hand to ask for a map, she had heard of Xuanhua Mansion, which was an important border town of this dynasty, how could her uncle think of sending rice and grain to Xuanhua Mansion for salt.
She told her uncle before that when the tea is sold, there will be money, and she will make plans next spring, she has been busy with tea and purple clay pots during this time, so she rarely goes to her uncle, and I don't know when my uncle made a decision to go to Xuanhua Mansion before the year to see.
Mother Tong finally found the map and put it in front of Wan Ning's eyes, and pointed with her finger, "Xuanhua Mansion is here, but I also heard that it is very peaceful over there, and it is not too far from Jingshi, maybe it's nothing." ”
If it's that simple, why would anyone sell tuntian? Did my uncle ask me carefully?
"Maybe the fourth master will only look at those fields for the sake of prudence."
Wan Ning stood up.
When he was in the Shen family, his uncle said that the second uncle had to risk going to the frontier every year to deliver grain, and once the frontier was not peaceful, the second uncle hid in the household with the grain, but was discovered by those foreigners, dragged the guys around him out of the house one by one and killed them, and the second uncle was arrested. It's still the little guy next to the second uncle who stepped forward as the savior.
The second uncle saved his life because of this.
On this matter, my uncle has always felt indebted to my second uncle, and she can understand my uncle's feelings. As the person in charge of the Shen family, where can he always shrink behind others.
Uncle didn't want to tell her the ins and outs, and she knew why.
In her uncle's heart, she was a child after all.
"Let someone go and prepare the car, I'm going to my uncle's house." Wan Ning whispered to Mother Tong.
Mother Tong nodded, and was just about to go down to make arrangements, when Luo Ying came in and said, "The master is here." ”
How could my father come over at this time?
Wan Ning frowned.
"Wanning." Yao Yiwen was full of interest, with a smile on his face.
Wan Ning stepped forward to salute Yao Yiwen.
"Wanning." Yao Yi said, "When you were a child, you always wanted your father to find you a female gentleman to come back, and it just so happened that I met Chen Ge Lao today. Chen Ge Lao invited a female gentleman to the young lady in the family, so I asked, Chen Ge Lao meant, you can ask the female gentleman. If she wants, she can come and make you a mat. ”
It's a good thing to be able to be in the same Xixi with the young lady of Chen Ge's hometown.
Yao Yiwen stroked his beard.
"How old is the young lady from Chen Ge's hometown?" Wan Ning looked at Yao Yiwen. "Like a daughter?"
Yao Yiwen nodded, "Almost, I remember ......"
"How many years have passed since my father wanted to invite Xixi when I was a child?" Wan Ning raised her head, "Now that my daughter has grown up, she has taught herself a lot of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she has also bought tea in Beijing. It's too late. ”
Yao Yiwen was stunned.
"For many years, my daughter never thought that she would have a father to rely on." Wan Ning paused, "Father really wants to be kind to his daughter and make up for the lack of these years, it's better to be anxious about his daughter's urgency, let people inquire about that Hua Mingxuan, why before his daughter's tea shop opened, there was a new tea made by his daughter." ”
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little strange.
Yao Yiwen's high-ranking Wenchen demeanor immediately unloaded half of it.
Wan Ning stepped forward to salute Yao Yiwen, "Father, my daughter is going to the uncle, and I will listen to the uncle and tell me what to do in the future." ”
Yao Yiwen suppressed his anger, the green tendons on his forehead were beating faintly, but there was a trace of guilt in his eyes, so the two struggled for a moment, turned his head and ordered, "A few more people follow the young lady to the eldest master." ”
After sending Yao Yiwen away, Wanning went to the inner room to change clothes.
Mother Tong looked at Wan Ning, who was frowning, "Miss, don't worry, Master Shen Si won't be so fast even if he wants to leave, we will definitely be able to catch up, Miss persuade her well, even if you are in a hurry, even if you wait until next spring." ”
Wan Ning nodded.
Tong's mother looked outside, Luo Ying asked people to guard the door, and there was no one else in the house, so she said in a low voice: "The slave maid has never seen the face of the master, I want to be angry but I have to endure it," said and paused, "Hasn't Miss always wanted to invite a Xixi to teach calligraphy?" ”
Yao Yiwen didn't give her too many opportunities to learn, so that she still guessed a lot of traditional Chinese characters, from Taixing to Beijing, she followed Brother Kun to take a lot of Mr. Yang Jing's classes, but these are obviously far from enough, she really needs a gentleman.
But it's not now, let alone recommended by Chen Ge's hometown.
"Our family has a marriage contract with the Chen family," Wan Ning looked at Tong's mother, "Do you think the Chen family will want a daughter-in-law like me to enter the door?" ”
Chen Jiran She has seen it, and she can see that the Chen family is very precious to this son, and with her current situation, it is impossible for the Chen family to agree.
"How is that impossible," Mother Tong was a little unconvinced, "Miss has entered the palace and been rewarded by the queen." ”
"But I also made a mess of the Yao family, made the elders sick, and sent my sixth uncle to prison, and now I have started a shocking business, and from time to time I will show up to treat people." With the aesthetics of the Chen family and the method of educating children, how could they accept such a daughter-in-law as her.
Unless the Chen family has other plans.
No matter what the Chen family's plan is, since they don't look down on each other, it's best not to be involved, since Chen Ge Lao has already tested his father and wants to see if she can still learn etiquette, she simply goes back to the past now, so that the Chen family can completely break this thought.
