His silent gaze moved to the carriage, but he heard the gambler next to him say, "There is no one inside." ”

Shen Mo looked at the iron pillar again, but saw him stretch out his hand with a smile and pointed in the direction of the road he came from. I saw two cloth skirts but could not hide their graceful, unpowdered but more beautiful women, who looked like a master and a servant, and appeared in front of him without warning.

Looking at the beautiful shadow that came into view, the silent heartbeat stopped suddenly, and the whole body seemed to be stagnant, rubbing his eyes vigorously, and muttering involuntarily: "I'm not dreaming, right?" ”

Zhu Shisan was also dumbfounded, they had never seen such a good-looking woman, as if the two fairies who came out of the painting, so that the four brocade guards who had seen the world couldn't close their mouths.

Just as they were opening their eyes wide and wanting to feast their eyes, the iron pillar led people to surround them, blocking the sight of the four of them. I saw that Tie Zhu said with a sincere face: "I also want to ask you how to track and re-track." ”

Zhu Shisan naturally knew what he meant, so he had to say, "Let's go, let's go over there to talk, it's not an eyesore here." ”

"Thank you, thank you." The iron pillars smiled gratefully, and then surrounded the four of them and hid far away, leaving the space for adults.

On the side of the ancient road, the grass is barren and the sky is full of vitality.

The woman who followed behind also wanted to avoid it, but was pulled by the one standing in front and smiled: "Sister, where are you going?" ”

Shen Mo looked at the woman on the side, and couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart, how could it be her? But at this time, his wife was the first, and hurriedly said softly: "Ruohan, why are you here?" ”

The woman standing in front was his fiancée, Yin Ruohan. After a hurried meeting yesterday, and in front of the two fathers, she couldn't take a good look at her fiancé, but now she can finally take a closer look at his obviously thin face...... He must have suffered a lot, Ruohan thought so, and couldn't help but be teary-eyed.

Hearing the silent question, she wiped away her tears and said, "The concubine went to Yanjing with her father-in-law." ”

"What is this talking about?" hurriedly said: "I'm not a new official, and I don't want to bring my family." ”

Ruohan made him laugh, but thinking that there was another person on the side, he quickly became serious again and said: "Xianggong is thousands of miles away, and no relatives are looking at him day and night, so how can the concubine be relieved?" The concubine was willing to be unkempt, and waited all the way to the officials. First, the officials will not be lonely, and second, they will also share some worries for their father-in-law. Afraid of being silent and blaming, she said: "As for the family, my father-in-law has agreed to live in Xixi Meishu with my father, the two old men take care of each other, and there are more than a dozen slaves and maids, so I can rest assured." ”

Listening to this awkwardness silently, he said in his heart, where is the awkwardness? First of all, in terms of titles, he and Ruohan have long agreed to call each other or call them by their names, or replace them with you and me, but they don't use such 'xianggong' and 'concubine', which makes people get goosebumps. In terms of tone, the relationship between the two is intimate, and they always speak casually, but they never look at each other like this.

After thinking about it, his eyes couldn't help but drift to the soft and weak woman on the side, and he understood Ruohan's thoughts, so he had to accompany her and say in Sven words: "I am naturally happy to be lonely and lonely, and I have a relative as a companion; But this is hard and difficult, and the second is unpredictable, how can I bear to be tired of you and me? ”

Ruohan shook his head and said: "Xianggong said this, you and I are one husband and wife, and we should share weal and woe, and share weal and woe...... Moreover, the situation in Beijing is complicated, the people's hearts are unpredictable, and the public is not free, if no one is outside to take care of it, it will inevitably be a little more dangerous. It is better to let the concubine go with her, whether it is to help the minister to the official to defend herself, or to ask for help, it will always be beneficial. Then he said a little gloomily: "Just send the prime minister to prison, and leave the concubine outside, so it is still good to take care of it." After speaking, he smiled, pulled over the quiet, and smart woman on the side, and finally couldn't help revealing her true face, and said with a smile: "Besides, it's not me, and I have a little crisp girl as a companion." ”

Shen Mo rolled his eyes for a while, and he heard a hidden vinegar taste from Ruohan's last sentence. As a well-known person who 'understands the general situation and takes the overall situation into account', he naturally knows how to behave at this time, and smiled politely at the woman: "Rou Niang, hello, I haven't seen you for a long time." After speaking, he scolded himself: 'Is this a human language?'

Fortunately, after Rou Niang was dragged out by Ruohan, she kept biting her lower lip nervously, her little head buzzing, and she only saw Shen Mo opening her mouth towards herself, but she didn't hear anything. It wasn't until Shen Mo screamed again that she came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "Slave and maid go away first." But he was grabbed by Ruohan and said, "Don't go anywhere." ”

Shen Mo begged with a smile: "Just let her avoid it first, let's talk about the conversation first, okay?" ”

He said it all, Ruohan of course didn't want to disobey, so he said to Rou Niang: "Sister go and wait for me in the car first, and I'll talk to you later." ”

Rou Niang nodded obediently, saluted them separately, and obediently walked to the carriage parked on the side of the road, took down a pier and stepped on the car, and closed the door tightly...... Looking at the door closed tightly, Shen Mo couldn't help but sigh secretly: "It's inevitable to cry, but I am a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and I can only apologize mentally." When Ruohan appeared with Rou Niang, Shen Mo had a feeling that Mrs. Zhengwu had brought Xiao San to crusade against him...... So he has been pretending to be cold to Rou Niang, also to minimize Ruohan's hostility towards her.

This is by no means self-consolation, because no woman in the world is willing to share her husband with others, just as no man is willing to share his wife with everyone. Moreover, the status and authority of the wife in this era are much higher than the so-called 'equality between men and women' in later generations, which can determine the life and death of the junior...... Shen Mo often heard that the eldest wife of the family abused the concubine, forced the concubine to death, drove the concubine out of the house, and even resold it, but he had never heard of whose concubine rode on the head of the eldest wife.

Well, he admits that since he saw Rou Niang again, he hasn't thought about letting her go back, so he has to plan for her future...... This fully proves that he is a guy who is cold on the outside and stuffy on the inside.

But he underestimated Ruohan, there is a way that the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, Ruohan's mind and bearing are no different than Zaihan, since she came with Rou Niang, she will never be difficult for her and bully her. And she also has her own plans...... In the end, the painting screen still hopes to become a wife in a dignified manner, without looking at the face of the eldest woman, and she can enter the ancestral grave and tree tombstone when she dies, so that no one will die nameless. That's what she's always been looking forward to.

The picture screen thinks clearly: Although if she follows Shen Mo, Ruohan will not bully her, but everyone will have a son, and she will be shorter than Miss all her life, so why should the son born be a head shorter than a person? So although she was very reluctant to miss and had an unrequited love that was difficult to let go of Shen Mo, she still told herself that 'long pain is better than short pain', and resolutely made a choice.

Miss Yin was also reluctant to give her up, but she respected the choice of her sisters, so after discussing with her father, she put the 'Yiheyuan' pawnshop that was called into Doujin under the name of the picture screen, so that no matter what happens in the future, she will live a worry-free life.

It's just that in this way, Ruohan has no one around her who can help her watch her man together. Ruohan is not the kind of ignorant little girl, she started to take care of the family's business at the age of thirteen, and now for six years, her mind has been very mature. Naturally, I know that Shen Mo, who is a top man in appearance, character, knowledge, and future, will never lack wild bees and butterflies around him...... Although it is now the time for the two of them to mix oil in honey, it is a bit too early to worry. But the years have ruthlessly cut people's knives, and after ten or twenty years, who knows what the situation is?

So although her heart is sour, she still welcomes Rou Niang...... Pressing the idea that it was not enough for outsiders, Ruohan said to Shen Mo: "People have a deep affection for Rou Niang, and she has always taken care of her when her father-in-law was sick, and now she wants to follow you north, so I can't talk to her like that." ”

Shen Mo sneered: "What you taught is this." There is a way that is short of breath, and he unconsciously used honorific titles for his wife.

Ruohan glanced at him and said, "What's the matter, your heart is empty?" ”

Shen Mo said righteously: "No, we are innocent, we have nothing to say to others, how can we be weak-hearted? As he spoke, he would like to introduce her to the ins and outs of the two.

Ruohan glanced at him again and said: "Sister Rou Niang has already told me, you are too ruthless, isn't it just a bowl with more pairs of chopsticks at home?" Why do you want to turn people away? The generosity of these words, but the tone of his speech, always has a hint of vinegar...... Even if he has accepted Rou Niang in his heart, he must let him feel his dissatisfaction, this is to set an example, not to play a temper.

Of course, Shen Mo knew that Ruohan couldn't have no pimples in his heart, so he became more modest and said: "Isn't it that I haven't obtained your consent yet......" Without paying attention, he said what was in his heart, and quickly changed his words: "Oh no, oh no, I don't want to delay Rou Niang, yes, I don't want to delay her." ”

Ruohan cried and laughed: "Okay, okay, let's not take it as an example, okay?" ”

Shen Modeng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly promised: "Only this once, not for example." ”
