Nian's couldn't believe his ears, that day Niu Hulu took the holy decree written by Yinzhen to go out of the palace to Tongzhou is what she saw with her own eyes, what she heard with her own ears, how did she get to Yinzhen here and become a prayer for the Qing Dynasty, is it that at this time, Yinzhen still wants to protect Niu Hulu's family?

Sourness and jealousy came to mind in an instant, and Nian blurted out angrily, "It is a fact that Niu Hulu's family escaped from the palace illegally, and it is also a fact that he eloped with Imperial Doctor Xu, how could it be a rumor, and how could it be a blessing!" ”

"Shut up!" Yin Zhen said angrily: "Don't you understand what I said? In short, these words are not allowed to be mentioned again in the future! ”

"The concubine is not convinced!" Nian said hoarsely: "Niu Hulu has done such a shameless thing, why does the emperor still defend her everywhere, and even say anything to pray for the Qing Dynasty, and the concubines will not accept anything." There is also Fu Pei, even if he really said something that should not be done, but the fourth elder brother should definitely not do it, but now it is good, the emperor did not have a word of comfort, and he blamed Fu Pei everywhere. Speaking of sadness, she couldn't help but cry.

Yin Zhen looked down at the sobbing Nian, there was no pity in his eyes when he saw her crying, for a long time, in the wind that spread through the hall, he said: "Fupei is my son, Hongli is the same, no matter what his mother has, I will not allow anyone to insult my son." ”

He brushed his sleeves and left, and when he passed by the unwilling Nian, he paused and looked at the palace people who came far away outside the hall and said in a loud voice: "If the concubine has time, she will discipline Fupei well, otherwise, I don't mind handing it over to the queen for discipline." ”

Hearing this, Nian's body softened, and she almost fell to the ground, until Jade came to help her, and her body was still so soft that she didn't have any strength.

Ling Ruo, who was far away in Qingjiang Town, didn't know anything about what happened in the palace, and he didn't know that it was not the people sent by Yinzhen who chased her and Rong Yuan in Tongzhou that day.

After they came back from the street that day, because they were afraid that Shi Mu would be worried, they didn't tell Shi Mu about meeting Hou Mubai, but only said that they accidentally broke the watermelon and lost dozens of dollars.

In the first few days, Shi Sheng and the others were worried, lest Hou Mubai refuse to give up, but after waiting for a few days, they didn't find anything abnormal, and no one came to make trouble, so they gradually put their minds at ease.

On this day, Xuan'er came to Shi's house in a hurry, and saw Shi Sheng squatting on the ground and writing carefully according to the words written by Ling Ruo, Xuan'er curiously looked at the square words on the ground, "Brother Shi Sheng, do you know all these words?" ”

"Nature's Knowledge." Shi Sheng pointed to the words on the ground and said: "These six words are connected together to 'the beginning of people, xing is good', which means that people are good when they are born, but in the later environment, there is a difference between good and bad, Miss Ling said that this is a book called "Three Character Classic", Miss Ling's knowledge is great, and she understands everything. ”

Xuan'er replied sullenly, looking a little unhappy, isn't it just a few words, what's the big deal. Ling Ruo saw that she didn't know how to look like this, so she stood up and said, "I'm a little tired, go back to the house and lie down for a while, Shi Sheng, you can talk to Miss Xuan'er." ”

Shi Sheng agreed, and said to Xuan'er: "Sister Xuan'er, but Uncle Zheng has something to ask you to come to me?" ”

"No, I have something for you." When he asked like this, Xuan'er suddenly remembered the purpose of her visit this time, and quickly handed the cloth bag held on her chest to Shi Sheng, and said with a sweet smile: "Brother Shi Sheng, you open it and take a look." ”

Shi Sheng opened the cloth bag and took a look, only to see that there was a pair of brand-new black cloth shoes inside, Shi Sheng looked at Xuan'er in surprise and said, "This?" ”

"Last time, I saw that your shoes were torn, so I took advantage of the free time these days to make a new pair, Brother Shi Sheng quickly tried to see if it fits." Xuan'er said with crooked eyebrows.

Shi Sheng said forgively: "How embarrassing is this, the soles and uppers have to be bought with money, so let's take them back and wear them for Uncle Zheng." ”

"My father's feet are big, he can't wear them, Brother Shi Sheng, don't say so much, try it quickly." Xuan'er urged on the side.

Shi Sheng saw that he couldn't refuse, and saw that Xuan'er was kind, so he had to sit on the boulder and take off the old shoes that had been opened and torn on his feet, put on the new shoes and try them, the size fits the feet, and it is very comfortable to walk, Shi Sheng happily walked a few steps and said: "Xuan'er, your craftsmanship is so good, these shoes are not squeezed at all, but more comfortable than my old shoes." ”

When Xuan'er heard this, her heart was sweeter than eating honey, "Brother Shi Sheng likes it." ”

Shi Sheng looked at her with a smile and said, "Sister Xuan'er is so virtuous, whoever marries you in the future will be blessed." ”

Speaking of getting married, Xuan'er's face turned red, she lowered her head and twisted the braids hanging on her chest, she wanted to tell Shi Sheng that he was the only person she wanted to marry, but she was a girl's family, how could she be embarrassed to say these words, that is, these shoes were laughed at by her father for a while, saying that she was not a big girl, and she had already made shoes for people before she got married, and she couldn't take care of his father.

Shi Sheng didn't notice Xuan'er's strange appearance, looked at the shoes on his feet for a long time, sat back and took them off carefully, and put on the old shoes again.

Seeing this, Xuan'er hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, is Brother Shi Sheng uncomfortable?" Whether it's big or narrow, no, I'll take it back and see if I can change it. ”

Shi Sheng shook his hand and said, "No, it's on your feet." It's a pity that such new shoes are worn out, and the old shoes on the left and right can still be worn, and then wear Xuan'er girl's pair when it's really bad. ”

"That's up to you." Xuan'er replied happily, and was about to say more, when she suddenly heard Shi Sheng say: "By the way, when is Sister Xuan'er free, can you help me make embroidered shoes?" ”

"Embroidered shoes?" Xuan'er blinked her bright eyes and wondered, "Is it for Aunt Shi to wear?" She knows the benefits and disadvantages of Aunt Shi's eyes over the years, she can't do much needlework, and everything in her clothes is sewn by Shi Sheng herself, that is, her shoes can't be mended, she can only wear them; However, Mrs. Shi is in her sixties, and she usually wears flat cloth shoes, why do you still wear embroidered shoes?

Shi Sheng explained: "No, the shoes made by my mother's shoes are still there, it's Miss Ling, she has been wearing my mother's old shoes these days, and I want to make her a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes." Seeing that Xuan'er's face was a little unsightly, she only thought that she cared about the shoes embroidered with shoes, and said busily: "Don't worry, Uncle Zheng said that a few days ago, an adult family married a daughter, and anyone who went over there to blow joy could get two dollars of silver each, and when I got the money, I would give you the money for the shoes immediately, and if it didn't work, I would pay a little bit of wages." ”

Xuan'er's face did not improve because of him, and she said with a straight face: "My craftsmanship is rough, and I can make cloth shoes, and I can't embroider shoes." ”

"No, I think Sister Xuan'er's craftsmanship is very good, and she is comparable to those shops that specialize in selling shoes."

Listening to Shi Sheng's praise, Xuan'er only felt more angry, and stomped her feet and said: "I said no, no, don't bother me anymore, if you want to embroider shoes, you have to buy them in the town." With that, she turned around and left angrily, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly turned back again, and snatched the shoe that Shi Sheng held in her hand, "Since you don't like these shoes, I'll take them to my father to wear, don't get in your way here!"
