Volume 1: Who Have Seen Again, Chapter 374: The Messenger in Red (4)
When things started up, it was already more than half of the third watch. By the time the toss came down, it was already the fourth watch.
Everyone lost their sleep, and Zhang Gui's little grandson in the west wing woke up in the middle of the night and cried. Following the barking of dogs and the barking of chickens and ducks, there was a sudden uproar, and it took a long time before silence was restored.
The lights in the north room and the east and west wings are lit.
Even the Shen family's coachman servant who was placed in the east wing was awakened by this movement, and he didn't dare to sleep.
In the west room of the north room, Dr. Chen finished applying ointment to Shen, and also prescribed a prescription to suppress the calm spirit. However, the ointment was prepared in the ointment box, but there was nowhere to grab the herbs, so I could only wait for tomorrow.
Dr. Chen went down, and Zhang Gui and his wife stayed in the Westinghouse.
Although the three of them were all standing on the ground, they couldn't help but look at Shen on the kang out of the corner of their eyes.
The green purlin with the thickness of a thumb made the three people tremble in horror. They really couldn't imagine that the second wife looked soft and weak, how could she dare to kill someone.
This Shen Xianggong looks so handsome, but this time he suffered a big crime. The three old men all felt uneasy, but whether it was an apology from the second wife or other explanations, it was not the turn of the three of them to speak.
Shen Rui glanced at Zhang Gui and his wife and said, "You guys go down first, Ming'er gets up early to prepare more breakfast, and we will go back to the city after breakfast." β
Zhang Gui was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Second young master, where is the second wife?" β
"The second wife has lost her mind, and she has to go back to the city to raise her." Shen Ruidao.
Zhang Gui responded and took Mrs. Zhang down.
Mother Zhou's eyes were red, and she said: "It's all old slaves who deserve to die, they slept too deeply, and they didn't hear any movement, which put the second young master in danger and affected Shen Xianggong again." β
Shen Rui said: "I thought that since she chased her to the blessed land to sacrifice Brother Jue, she would repent, but I didn't expect her to go completely crazy...... It's not my mother's business, it's that I'm slacking off and less guarded. β
Speaking of this, Shen Rui looked at Shen and said, "This time, because of me, Shen Xianggong has suffered because of me...
Shen Fangcai coughed for a while, tears came out, his eyes were red and he looked at Shen Rui, he lowered his head for a long time and said, "It is said that one drink and one peck, it is a fixed number." Before, because of my fault, Brother Lejue was sick, and now I have blocked the catastrophe for you, maybe it is also the will of God. β
Shen Rui shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation. β
Shen was about to speak again, but Shen Yan had already spoken: "Hengyun, what is there later." The younger brother tightened his throat and told him to shut up first. β
Shen Rui nodded, stopped talking to Shen, turned around and instructed Zhou's mother: "It's already four watches, mom will go back to rest first, and tomorrow will get up early and hurry." β
Zhou's mother answered and went back to the East House.
On the Westinghouse side, whether it was Shen Rui, Shen Yan, or Brother Shen, they were not sleepy.
Shen felt uncomfortable on his neck, and sometimes touched it with his hand, and looked at Shen Rui's gaze with inquiry.
This second Mrs. Qiao wants to put Shen Rui and die, Shangshu Mansion seems to be prominent, but the sword light and sword shadow in it are also terrifying.
Although Shen Yan had been blackening his face before, and now his anger was gradually subsiding, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart, he couldn't help but say that they and Shangshufu were really born to rush, otherwise how could they cross paths once, and they would either die or be injured. Although he was a protΓ©gΓ© of a saint and did not believe in ghosts and gods, his coincidence again and again also made him tremble......
It was getting white outside, and there was movement in the kitchen.
Zhou's mother brought the little maid and brought hot water.
After Shen Rui and the three of them got acquainted, breakfast was already served.
It's also white porridge, but the dim sum is not an egg cake, it's replaced with a scallion pancake, and the face is fragrant with sesame oil. Shen Rui, Shen Yan and the others didn't have the appetite of last night, and they all used a small half bowl to put down their chopsticks.
Waiting for the dinner table to be removed, Shen Rui said to Shen Yan: "Three cars came over yesterday, and Mr. Shen and Shen Xianggong were in the same car with me......
Shen Yan nodded: "Then bother Hengyun ......"
The attendant charioteer's servant had heard the message in the early hours of the morning, and had already fed the horses, harnessed the cart, and was ready
Doctor Chen saw that something was wrong, and pulled Changshou and said in a low voice: "Brother Changshou, why is everyone going back and leaving no one to serve the second wife of your mansion?" It was wrong to look at her yesterday, is it time to go over and check the pulse now?
Changshou said: "This is a mountainous place, remote and desolate, where is the place where you can recuperate?" The second wife naturally wants to take her back to Beijing."
Doctor Chen listened and hesitated.
Changshou didn't mean to elaborate, and beckoned Dr. Chen to get into a carriage.
Although the sky was clear, the snow on the ground had not disappeared, and the carriage was moving on the snow, and the sound of the wheels of the carriage "squeak" and "squeak" was heard in my ears.
In the carriage in the middle, in addition to Zhou's mother and the two servants, it was the second wife Qiao on the main seat. It's just that Qiao's mouth was stuffed with walnuts, and his body was tied with a cloth belt, and he looked into Zhou's mother's eyes to shoot a knife.
Zhou's mother snorted coldly, unaware.
Even if the second wife is not, once or twice to bow down to the heir, no matter how good the patience of the lord and wife is, there is a time when it comes to an end. used to treat the fourth brother, but he had to calculate and raise him, and he had bad intentions and didn't implement it; When he came to the third young master, he indirectly asked for a life; Now that he has come to the second young master, he will directly harm people.
is so ashamed and angry, isn't it because she has a weak heart.
Thirty miles away, without stopping, the carriage took more than half an hour to enter the city.
When he arrived outside Renshoufang, Shen Rui got out of the carriage and instructed Changshou to follow the carriage and send Shen Yan and Shen back to Nancheng.
When Xu got the news and knew that Shen Rui was back, he couldn't help but be surprised.
After a while, Zhou's mother and Shen Rui arrived together.
Seeing Shen Rui's solemn expression, Zhou's mother could not hide her indignation, Xu only felt a "chuckle" in her heart, waved her hand and sent the servants down, leaving only Hongyun in front of her, and said to Shen Rui: "What did the second wife make trouble again?" β
Shen Rui sneered: "She knows my background and wants to strangle me"
Xu Shi was startled, hurriedly stood up, walked to Shen Rui, checked up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was indeed fine. She couldn't hide her anger on her face and said, "How dare she? What the hell is going on? β
Shen Rui told the terrifying thing that happened in the early morning.
Mother Zhou gestured on the side: "The one-inch-wide green purlin, looking at it is terrifying, that Shen Xianggong is a few years older than the second brother, he was almost out of breath, if it wasn't for Master Shen to wake up early and kick away the second wife, something would have happened."
Although the Xu family has no good impression of the Shen Yan brothers, they can't help but rejoice now: "Amitabha, there are people who block misfortune, and Brother Rui is a blessed one."
There is only one heir in the Shen family's room, Shen Rui, and the third room must always be separated, Zhou's mother has always stood on Shen Rui's side, and she had to say that Qiao's curse Shen Rui was a "debt collector": "Madam, the second wife now hates the second brother to death, and even the death of the eldest young master is blamed on the second brother, and the old slave can't listen to it." β
"Who is the debt collector? The Shen family owes her in the last life, "The Xu family hates it so much."
Shen Rui thought for a while and said, "Mother, Dr. Chen said that she had a stroke and should not move, but the child saw that she still had the strength to harm others, so he didn't worry about leaving her outside, so he brought her back to Beijing." β
Xu glanced at Shen Rui a few times, saw that his eyes were blue and black, nodded and said, "I know the way, I'll settle it." You didn't have a good rest yesterday, so go back and rest. β
Shen Rui responded and withdrew from the upper room.
Xu looked at Zhou's mother with disgust and said, "Since Doctor Chen said something like that, don't you know how to persuade the second brother?" It doesn't matter if you take Qiao's family back, or send someone to send her to Zhuangzi, you shouldn't let the second brother take care of it
Knowing that it was not appropriate for the Qiao family to move, he took her back to Beijing, and in the eyes of others, he inevitably looked vicious and mean. Although Dr. Chen is not a man of many tongues, the Xu family still does not want Shen Rui to be questioned.
Zhou's mother said: "The second brother has always had the right idea, where does the old slave dare to interject?" Mrs. Don't worry, the sacrificial village is remote, it is indeed inconvenient to recuperate, the second brother is only fifteen years old this year, even if he is not thoughtful, who is good to pick his reason? β
"The second brother looked bleak, but he treated people very kindly, and this time he was so angry." Xu frowned and said, "You take a few people in a while, and send them directly to the second room." β
Xu's patience with this concubine has long been exhausted, and now that she hears that she is even going to hurt Shen Rui, she doesn't even want to do face-saving love. For other shameless people, knowing that Shen Rui is the son of the Sun family, only those who are ashamed to avoid are like the second master; Qiao's didn't repent at all, and he still had evil thoughts, which showed that it was really incorrigible
Nancheng, Ming Shifang.
Shen Yan got out of the carriage first and stretched out his hand to help Shen.
Shen had an extra fur scarf around his neck, covering the bruises, but his throat was still uncomfortable. With a smile on his face, he pushed his brother's arm away and said, "Where is it?" β
Shen Yan stiffened his face and said, "You still laugh when you escaped death?" β
Shen Fangcai's body tightened on the carriage, stretched his waist, and said, "Big brother, my younger brother feels loose...... I felt uncomfortable before, and I always felt that I owed it there, and I was ashamed. Although I can't say one stroke at a time, my brother feels better. β
Shen Yan snorted coldly, but he also knew that Shen Jue's death was Shen's heart disease, so he stopped being verbose.
He took out two pieces of broken silver from his purse, stuffed them into Changshou and said, "I have worked hard and lived a long life, toss a little more in the morning, and buy a bowl of hot soup to eat when I go back." β
Changshou said: "Master Shen, Shen Xianggong will go well, and my young master will come to visit in a few days." β
Shen Yan nodded and led Shen into the gate.
Changshou sat down on the other side of the cart and threw a piece of broken silver to the coachman. Seeing that it weighed two dollars, the coachman smiled and said, "This Master Shen is generous and kind......
Changshou looked thoughtfully at the gate of the Shen Mansion.
It has been six years since he came to Shen Rui's side in the eleventh year of Hongzhi, and the young masters of each head of the Shen family have seen each other for a long time. In my heart, Shen Yan's bearing, in the younger generation, is second only to Shen Li, the champion of the princess, and is about the same as Shen Ying in the fifth room.
Because of the evil fate of the ancestors, Shangshu Mansion and Shen Yan brothers do not have the meaning of "flesh and blood family", and now Qiao's trouble is here, I don't know if it will bring the relationship between the two sides closer, or make the two sides more and more alienated.
Although Changshou is an orphan, he also knows that the world's most important clan bloodline is today. Shen Jue is gone, the fourth brother is still a child, but his young master is lonely and has no help. It's really that Shen Yan's identity is too embarrassing, even if it is the concubine in the next room, if the relationship is good, he can use it in the future......
