Chapter Sixty-Nine: Hold Your Head Higher

The old lady said with a smile on her face: "It's hard for the four girls to have this heart, hand me the gift list and take a look." ”

Shi Cong was in a good mood, and handed the gift list to Shi Qingluo Dao, "Since it is your heart, you will hand it to your grandmother." ”

Shi Qingluo obediently took the gift list, bypassed Shi Cong and the two and came behind the old lady. The old lady turned around and smiled and took the gift list in her hand, the red paper gift list printed with gold wire, lining Shi Qingluo's hands more and more white, and the delicate palms flashed from the bottom of her eyes, but the smile on the corner of the old lady's mouth stiffened a little.

His eyes darkly looked at Shi Qingluo standing in front of him, Shi Qingluo quietly hung his hands at his side, and his smile remained unchanged on the old lady's eyes, and it was clear that there was no half complaining look in the cat's eyes, but the old lady was quite uncomfortable in her heart, and even the red paper in her hand was a little hot.

The old lady insisted on the gift list, glanced at it in a general way, but didn't look at it at all in her heart, Shi Cong still looked at her with a smile. As long as the old lady opened her mouth to accept the gift list, then the confiscation of those rewards was decided, and the old lady let out a long breath

"Since the four girls have this heart, let's do what the four girls want. The old lady turned around, took out her crutches from Mama Gui's hand and stood up, "This gathering is almost over, you all go back separately, I'm a little tired, Mama Gui, let's go." ”

The old lady crossed Shi Qingluo and left the main hall with a slightly heavy step.

The old lady was getting older, and her mood was becoming more and more cloudy, so everyone didn't care, got up and saluted, and left.

It was already dark, and the red lanterns in the corridor were still shining faintly. 、

Shi Qingluo passed through several ring corridors before he saw the plaque of the Jade Tower.

Shi Qingluo simply freshened up, but his body was still tired.

There was a light knock on the door twice, and He Yi stepped into the room with the small case, put the small case on the table, and then turned around and closed the door.

Shi Qingluo sat in front of the bronze mirror in obscene clothes, and the waist-length green silk was still steaming.

He Yi brought the medicinal food on the small case to Shi Qingluo's side, and sighed: "Miss, when you were bathing just now, Master Shangshu had already sent a housekeeper to move out all the things rewarded by Princess You in the room, and said that Miss didn't have to go to the Buddhist hall to chant the scriptures anymore, just copy two copies of the "Diamond Sutra" and send them to the eldest lady. ”

Shi Qingluo took the medicinal food, stirred it with the medicine spoon, and said lightly: "Got it." With that, he raised his head and drank all the medicinal food in the bowl.

He Yi put the paper bag containing the candied fruit on the table, and the medicinal diet was sent out, before taking out a porcelain bottle from his arms.

Shi Qingluo handed out the hand hanging on his lap, the palm of his white hand was already red, and the crescent-shaped wound oozed some blood.

He Yi frowned while administering medicine to Shi Qingluo, and said with a pain in his mouth: "Why does Miss have to wronged herself so much." "The wound that came out of this life hurts a lot, and it is appropriate to look at it, and his scalp is numb, and he can't imagine what kind of heart Shi Qingluo has to pinch himself like this.

Shi Qingluo chuckled, "What grievances do I have, you just because I can't do anything with Shi Baozhi, so I made it like this?"

"Naturally, Mademoiselle will not. He Yi said without raising his head, Shi Baozhi is not much different from Ding Xiuxiu in essence, Shi Qingluo can force Ding Xiuxiu to hang himself, how can he take Shi Baozhi There is no way.

The slave just felt that there was no need for the young lady to hurt herself. He said again.

Shi Qingluo's chin was slightly raised, and he wrote lightly: "If you don't show the grievances to the extreme, how can you attract the attention of those who are as hard as iron." ”

Shi Qingluo withdrew his hand, his five fingers curled slightly, as if he was holding something, and a cool smile appeared on his slightly pale face, "The injury I suffered today, the person who injured me another day will pay me back a hundred times." So, what can I get from this little injury?"

Appropriate throat movements.

Shi Qingluo Shi Ran stood up and approached Heyi, Heyi could feel the fragrant fragrance on his face, but his heart was cold

"Yes, I bow my head today so that I can raise my head higher in the coming day. ”

"You have to remember that I never wronged myself. ”

The coldness on Shi Qingluo's face subsided, and he smiled, "Go out, rest early, there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow." ”

Longevity Garden

Mama Gui stood on the edge of the bed, watching the old lady sitting cross-legged on the couch, looking at the big red gift slip in her palm.

At this time in the past, the old lady should have burned incense and recited the scriptures, even if she didn't recite it, she should have fallen asleep at this hour, but today, since the old lady came back, she has been sitting on the couch and not moving.

The old lady looked at her heart, and Mama Gui didn't dare to ask, so she could only stand on the side and hang her head to accompany her.

I don't know how long it took for Mama Gui to hear the old lady sigh and ask softly: "Xiangyi, you said, I and Cong'er, have we all been ...... all these years?" Too harsh on the fourth?"

When the old lady was young, she was the concubine of the old man Shi, and there was also a main room pressed on it, and she also had a daughter who was two years younger than Shi in her hand.

It's just that she came to Yin Country and has been a high-ranking old lady for so many years, and she forgot in her heart that she had struggled back then.

Today, I saw Shi Qingluo so aggrieved, in order to stay in the house, he did not hesitate to fill the box of rewards to the treasury.

The royal reward is not just a mundane thing, but also an honor. Not to mention others, it was Shi Jiaolan, who took the reward of the Holy Queen, and received it by herself.

The old lady didn't think much about it, until she saw Shi Qingluo clenching his palm into that bloody appearance, and her heart suddenly felt a little unbearable.

Mama Gui was shocked by the old lady's words, and said tremblingly: "The old slave doesn't dare to judge the old lady's family affairs......"

"You've been following me since I was a kid, and you'll say whatever you want. The old lady frowned and drank her, and after a while, she asked, "Don't mention this, then in your opinion, is the birthday picture placed in the study really broken by the fourth child?"

Mama Gui knew that if she didn't say a reason today, the old lady would not be happy, so she also followed the old lady's words and said something ambiguous.

"The old slave is just thinking, how can the master's study allow the fourth lady and a concubine to enter and leave without anyone reporting it?"

The old lady's brow furrowed even tighter.

Of course she knew that what Mama Gui said made sense.

The old lady thought carefully for a moment, and finally slapped the gift slip in her hand on the table.

"It must be the dereliction of duty on the part of the housekeepers!Xiangyi, you will drive all the housekeepers from the front of the children's study tomorrow!"

Mama Gui was not half surprised, and blessed her body and said, "The old slave obeys." ”

The old lady's eyes retreated.

Now, even if Shi Qingluo washes away his grievances, it will inevitably involve unpredictable consequences, and for the sake of the lintel of Shangshu Mansion, this matter must not be mentioned again.

Thinking of that fair and weak face, the old lady sighed lightly.

It's a big deal to take care of that girl more in the future.
