Chapter 338: Encounter
Zheng Wanru and Shen Huairen have been husband and wife for more than 20 years, and they are very familiar with his small actions.
When I saw him touch his nose, I knew that I had a different opinion from myself.
She immediately smiled, and asked with a sinking face, "Master, aren't you really against it?" Why? ”
"Hey, hey." Shen Huairen smiled, touched his nose again, and said, "Madam, the seven girls are indeed very good, whether it is their appearance or ability, they are all first-class good." ”
"And then?" Zheng Wanru's voice was a little cold.
Shen Huairen swallowed lightly, "It's just...... It's just that according to Nan'er's knowledge, there will definitely be something promising in the future, the origin of the seven girls...... ......"
Unable to finish her husband's words, Zheng Wanru interrupted with a sneer, "Master, you actually dislike Qiduo's origin?" It turns out that my lord has been disgusting me all these years. ”
"Don't get me wrong, ma'am, I didn't mean that." Shen Huairen saw that his wife was angry, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain.
But Zheng Wanru waved her hand vigorously, and then said, "Master, I didn't misunderstand, our Zheng family ancestors were farmers, and it wasn't until my grandfather's generation that they began to practice medicine and no longer farm.
Unexpectedly, my husband, whom I have always respected, has disliked me for more than 20 years, but I have always been kept in the dark, and I have always been proud of such a good husband, it turned out to be just my wishful thinking. ”
As she spoke, she covered her face with a veil and whimpered softly with a very sad voice.
Seeing his wife crying sadly, Shen Huairen was really anxious now.
He hurriedly got off the Luohan bed, and before he even had time to put on his shoes, he squatted in front of his wife. Coaxed softly. "Ru'er. Don't cry, blame me for saying the wrong thing in a moment's confusion. But I really never disliked you, not twenty-two years ago, and not today.
Think about it, our ancestors of the Shen family have also been farmers for generations, but later I was able to become an official because of the blessing of my ancestors, but I am still a farmer at all. If I hate you. Doesn't that mean disgust for myself?
Ru'er, don't be sad, okay? ”
Zheng Wanru, who covered her face with a handkerchief, curled the corners of her lips and smiled, and sure enough, she said this.
She just deliberately did this, forcing Shen Huairen to tell the matter of the Shen family's ancestors in person.
If she was asked to say this, Shen Huairen would definitely be dissatisfied, and mistakenly think that she disliked his ancestors as farmers.
But when it came out of his mouth, the meaning was very different.
can only say that he has not forgotten his roots, and it cannot be said that she dislikes it.
Zheng Wanru took the veil off her face, looked at her husband with a smile and said, "Master." The two of us both made a living from agriculture in our ancestors, so why do we dislike Qiduo's origin now? Master. You are in my heart, but you have never been the kind of pedantic person, otherwise you would not marry a woman like me, I remember that there were many famous ladies who liked you at that time.
Back then, you were so carefree and easy, how can you not be exempt from vulgarity now? ”
Shen Huairen was the top student in high school that year, and he was dignified, so he naturally became the best son-in-law candidate in the eyes of high-ranking officials and magnates.
All of a sudden, he became a hot figure.
But he was not tempted by interests and power, he just announced that he had a family, and then went back to Luzhou Mansion to fulfill his promise, and married Zheng Wanru.
For this matter, Mrs. Shen has always been dissatisfied with Zheng Wanru, thinking that if it weren't for her, her son would definitely marry the daughter of a first-class member of the court, which would have a bright future.
Old Mrs. Shen knew that her son and daughter-in-law were very affectionate, and in order to respond to Zheng Wanru, she forced her to die, and asked Shen Huairen to accept her cousin Huang Mei as a concubine.
But Shen Huairen promised Zheng Wanru that he would not take a concubine in this life, and lived a happy life with her for the rest of his life.
According to Zheng Wanru's strong temperament, she originally wanted to break with Shen Huairen, but who knew that she was pregnant with Shen Lin, and thought that Shen Huairen was forced to accept the concubine in desperation, plus Shen Huairen knelt in front of her and swore that even if she accepted Huangmei, she would never touch her and would not violate her original oath.
Zheng Wanru felt sorry for Huang Mei again, and said that since Shen Huairen married Huang Mei, he had to be responsible for her.
Only then did Shen Huairen tell her that Mrs. Shen asked him to take a concubine, and Huang Mei also contributed a lot.
Knowing that what happened was like this, Zheng Wanru accepted her sympathy for Huang Mei, and collected the resentment in her heart, and started to be the daughter-in-law of the Shen family with peace of mind.
was picky about Old Madam Shen in every way, and she tried her best to forbear, just to make Shen Huairen feel at ease.
Shen Huairen also did what he said, he really didn't touch Huangmei, even if he was sometimes forced by Mrs. Shen to share a room with Huangmei, he slept on the couch and stuck to the promise in his heart. But in his heart, he still felt guilty about Zheng Wanru.
And Zheng Wanru was also very moved by Shen Huairen's self-guarding, so the husband and wife have always respected each other and loved each other in every way.
Old Mrs. Shen is also wonderful, fortunately she passed away, otherwise, the Shen family would definitely be a chicken, a dog jumping, and it would be difficult for everyone to live in peace, where is there such a quiet and peaceful day today.
"Alas, Ru'er, it's because the husband is shallow. I just hope that Nan'er can marry a famous lady and help him in the future. Shen Huairen hung his head in shame.
"Master, if Nan'er wants to rely on the Yue family in the future, won't she have to rely on the snort of others, and then there will be half a man's anger. If he is incompetent, I would rather he go home and teach. Zheng Wanru raised her chin slightly, with a proud look on her face.
Shen Huairen had to nod.
That's right, if Nan'er's future is supported by his future father-in-law, how can he raise his head in front of his wife in the future, and he can only bend over and be a man for the rest of his life.
"Madam, everything is up to your arrangement, it's just that Nan'er and the seventh girl are still young, so this matter is not in a hurry, I am worried that it will distract Nan'er." Shen Huairen nodded in agreement with Zheng Wanru's idea.
Zheng Wanru nodded, saying that she knew it.
As for Huang Lianrong's side, she will find a way to make Huang Lianrong retreat.
Qiduo, who was in the county seat, didn't know that she was quietly condemned by the Shen family, so she just covered her mouth and sneezed twice.
"Who's scolding me?" Qiduo rubbed her nose and muttered quietly.
"Xiao Qi, your family still has guests today." Xu Youxuan said seriously beside him.
"Youxuan. How do you know that Xiaoqijia still has guests? Wen Xiuyi asked curiously.
Qiduo glared at Xu Youxuan with his eyes. "Third cousin. You bully people. ”
There is a saying in the countryside that 'when a dog sneezes, a guest comes'.
Xu Youxuan: This is a disguised way to say that Qiduo is a puppy.
After Wen Xiuyi learned the reason, he couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head, "Youxuan, you...... Like a child, too. ”
Xu Youxuan squinted and smiled, he was really cute like a child.
Several people went to the county government and met the ancient county order.
Gu Xianling looked at the live fish jumping around. Immediately squinted and smiled.
But he still waved his hand, said that he couldn't take it, and said how to give the seven flowers they insisted on, and he paid for it.
He was mainly worried that Qiduo had told Shen Huairen about it, and that Shen Huairen would say that he had taken bribes.
"Uncle Gu, this is the fish that my niece sent you, can't you still accept it?" Qiduo saw that Gu County Ling Lao was hypocritically pushing around there, so he had to raise his smile and change his name sweetly.
but coax people to death and do not pay for their lives.
This Uncle Gu called Gu County's heart trembled, but he was willing to accept it.
Then he smiled and said a few polite words. And he took the fish.
"Since you call me Uncle Gu, then I will be cheeky and respond. Seven girls, how is Luhuapo now, if there is any difficulty, just open your mouth. Gu County Ling said to Qiduo very enthusiastically.
"Mm-hmm, thank you Uncle Gu for your concern. Uncle Gu, the crops on the side of Luhuapo can be harvested in almost a month, in addition to the crops, there are chickens, ducks and fish, and then I have to come to bother Uncle Gu. "Seven should respond with a smile, and the more my uncle shouts, the smoother it becomes.
It is not a bad thing to climb to such a relative as the ancient county order.
Gu County Ling nodded his head repeatedly.
A few people gossiped a few more words, and Qiduo and his party prepared to leave.
At this moment, a government official hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words to the ancient county order.
Gu Xianling's face suddenly changed, and he seemed to be very anxious and worried.
Then he looked at Wen Xiuyi, his mouth moved, and he still closed it.
Then he pulled Qiduo aside, "Seven girls, can you do Uncle Gu a favor." ”
"Uncle Gu, please speak." Seven can't say no.
"Alas, my old mother has an old problem with heartache, and she has been visited by famous doctors all over the world. I don't know, can you ask Doctor Wen to help take a look? Gu County Ling said.
He knew Wen Xiuyi's eccentricity of seeing a doctor, and if he was rejected by Wen Xiuyi in public, it would be so faceless.
Seeing that Qiduo was familiar with Wen Xiuyi, he wanted her to come forward, and the possibility of success should be very high.
Oh, I see.
Qiduoxin put down slightly, nodded, and then went to Wen Xiuyi's side, also pulled him aside, and whispered about it.
"Cheng, I'll go." Wen Xiuyi nodded without hesitation. For the sake of Qiduo, he can't refuse.
Of course, if Gu County Ling went to Fenglin Hall to invite him in person, he really didn't necessarily agree to come.
"However, if it's a lot of energy, don't be reckless, I don't have the best ginseng in my house." Qiduo lowered his eyes and whispered, what happened last time, now that I think about it, I am still a little afraid.
Wen Xiuyi's eyes lit up, her heart was warm, Niuniu still cared about me.
He nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, for you, I won't die easily." ”
Qiduo frowned, how could this person talk about death at every turn.
However, Wen Xiuyi has already gone to the ancient county order.
Gu County Ling asked Qiduo, Xu Youxuan, and Tan Dejin to sit and drink tea and eat snacks first, and he himself took Wen Xiuyi to the back hall.
After about a quarter of an hour or so, Wen Xiuyi and Gu Xian Ling came back.
With a smile on Gu County's face, Qiduo knew that his mother should be fine.
Wen Xiuyi looked at Qiduo and smiled gently.
Qiduo turned his eyes away, ignoring them.
Gu Xian Ling thanked Qiduo again, and repeatedly said that he would come to him if he had difficulties, and this time his tone was much more sincere than just now.
Qiduo said goodbye to the ancient county order.
Out of the yamen, Xu Youxuan asked Qiduo to go to the food city, he wanted to ask the stewards to count how many chickens, ducks and fish needed in the restaurant and food city, as well as those vegetables and fruits, so that Qiduo's family could prepare in advance, and from tomorrow, he would officially buy ingredients from Luhuapo.
And Qiduo plans to wait for a while to go to the hatchery with Tan Dejin, and the second batch of eggs should also hatch, from eggs to chickens, it is not possible to do it in three or two days, it will take a few months.
The carriage stopped in front of the food city, and Qiduo jumped out of the carriage.
"Uncle, seventh sister." Qiduo suddenly heard a familiar shout in his ears.
It's five apricots! (To be continued......)
