Chapter 258
On the second day, Shen Zhongchen and Fang Siqi entered the city early.
Shen Zhongchen went to the morning court, and Fang Siqi went back to the house to sleep for a while.
However, she didn't sleep long, she got up and dressed up again, and went to the appointment between Qinghui and Qin Chuchu.
Today, they made an appointment at Lianhuawu, which was the restaurant that Jiang Jingwen opened in the capital last year.
The Lotus Dock is open on the moat and is shaped like a large boat. As for why it is called Lotus Dock, I heard that it was the name taken by Princess Yi.
When Fang Siqi arrived, Qinghui and Qin Chuchu had already arrived.
Seeing Fang Siqi yawning, Qinghui teased, "Didn't sleep enough after a day of sleep yesterday?" ”
Fang Siqi sat down beside her and pretended to say, "Shen Zhongchen tossed me enough, how can I have time to rest!" ”
Qing Hui and Qin Chuchu glanced at each other speechlessly. Qinghui took a cup of tea and put it in front of Fang Siqi, "This good dragon well before the rain can't stop your mouth!" ”
Fang Siqi was innocent, "What's wrong with me?" ”
"Don't show affection in front of us, we haven't married yet!" Kiyoe glared at her and said.
"How can I show affection?" Fang Siqi blinked, "What I'm saying is the truth." ”
"Shen Zhongchen's temperament, how could he tolerate me sleeping on my birthday! Even if I don't want to eat, feed me a few bites! ”
"Show... Look how you show! Qinghui clasped her hands in front of her chest, "Did you see the fireworks on the outskirts of Beijing last night?" Shen Zhongchen hurts you again, can I give you a show? ”
"Fireworks?" Fang Siqi was stunned.
"Don't you know?" Qinghui said as if he had seen it with his own eyes, "This morning this matter has been in a big way, last night in the south of the suburbs of Beijing, there was a rain of fireworks. The shape of the fireworks is very special, and it looks like a flower. ”
"Yes," Qin Chuchu continued, "I've heard about it too." Everyone is guessing which son-in-law did it. ”
"That's a lot of money." Qinghui sighed, "This fireworks are under control, and you can't get them if you don't have any skills." In order to please the beauty, this boy really made a lot of money. It seems that he has met the object of his destiny. ”
"Why does it have to be Brother Childe?" Fang Siqi raised his eyebrows.
"Who else could it be if it's not Brother Gongzi?" Qinghui said, "The flowers in the sky, what is it that is not courtship?" ”
Fang Siqi smiled noncommittally and did not explain to them.
Shen Zhongchen is already high-profile enough now, she thinks it's better to keep a low profile for this kind of thing.
After all, when it comes to fireworks, there are so many articles that can be done here.
Fang Siqi quietly listened to them discuss the owner of the fireworks, "You two are enough!" Didn't you invite me to dinner? What do you do talking about these boring things? ”
"Bored?" Qinghui smiled, "Do you think that Shen Zhongchen will also set off a firework for you, so that this kind of thing is not boring?" ”
Fang Siqi raised his forehead, "Qinghui, don't make fun of me, I was wrong, I shouldn't show off." ”
"Let's order first!"
Fang Siqi called Xiao Er, and before the food was ordered, there was a knock on the door of the box.
"Who?"
"Mrs. Shen, Shangshu Mansion Yuan." Mrs. Yuan said, "I heard that you are dining here, and I want to disturb you about something." ”
Hearing that someone was coming, the smile on Fang Siqi's face disappeared.
She is quite resentful, she has not forgotten the slap that Mrs. Yuan rewarded her when Yuan Yingying wronged her three years ago.
Qinghui looked at Fang Siqi a little nervously, although Mrs. Yuan didn't mention her, but since she came here, she naturally knew who was in the room.
she
Qinghui and the Yuan family have a good relationship, although it has faded a little in recent years, but if one party does not give the other party face, it is still a little difficult for her to be caught in the middle.
Fang Siqi obviously also thought of Qinghui's position, she pondered for a moment and said, "Please come in." ”
The door of the wing room was opened, and Mrs. Yuan led Yuan Yingying to stand at the door.
Qinghui and Qin Chuchu quickly stood up, only Fang Siqi sat and didn't move.
"Mrs. Yuan, Yingying, what a coincidence!" Kiyoe greeted.
Yuan Yingying's whole person was wilted, but her eyes were full of resentment when she looked at Fang Siqi.
Fang Siqi raised his eyebrows, and his gaze moved from Yuan Yingying to Mrs. Yuan, "Mrs. Yuan, what are you looking for me?" ”
Seeing Fang Siqi again, she was still as arrogant as when the former queen was alive, and she didn't take anyone in her eyes.
The ups and downs of the past few years have no trace on her at all.
Mrs. Yuan nodded at Qinghui, and then said, "Mrs. Shen, the little woman jumped out a little and made Mrs. Shen unhappy, so I specially brought her to make amends for you." ”
Mrs. Yuan didn't shy away from Qinghui and Qin Chuchu, the matter was so big that she couldn't cover it up if she wanted to.
After Mrs. Yuan finished speaking, she turned around and reminded, "Yingying." ”
Originally, Yuan Yingying was reluctant to apologize to Fang Siqi, but now there are outsiders, especially her friends for many years, Yuan Yingying can't pull her face.
She didn't move her pestle, no matter how Mrs. Yuan reminded her, she didn't react.
Just when Qing Hui wanted to take Qin Chuchu to avoid it, Mrs. Yuan suddenly knelt down towards Fang Siqi.
"Mrs. Shen, Yingying is not sensible, I didn't teach well. I'll kowtow to you to make amends. ”
After Mrs. Yuan finished speaking, she really kowtowed a few times, and there was no water at all.
Yuan Yingying was a little anxious when she saw this, "Mother, what are you doing on her knees!" ”
"Shut up!" Mrs. Yuan scolded sharply.
If it weren't for Yuan Yingying's refusal to make amends, why would she kneel.
Mrs. Yuan turned her head to look at Fang Siqi and continued, "Mrs. Shen, you have a kind heart, I don't know if you can spare Yingying this time?" For the sake of your friendship in the past, give her a way out? ”
No matter how Mrs. Yuan behaved, Fang Siqi sat still and didn't move. "Mrs. Yuan, you and I are both second-grade orders, the grade is not bad, but I am older. Didn't you kneel down to me like this to trap me in injustice? ”
"I didn't mean that." Mrs. Yuan glanced at Qinghui and said.
"Whether you mean it or not, I don't care." Fang Siqi stretched out his hand to stop Qinghui, "Anyway, I'm used to it, and my reputation is not bad enough to add you to this." ”
"As for what you said about letting me spare Concubine Yuan, I'm confused. After I returned to Beijing, I did meet Concubine Yuan, and I haven't had much contact since then. ”
"What's more, Concubine Yuan is still the concubine of Prince Chu, even if I have great ability, I can't touch her."
Fang Siqi looked at the two of them with a smile, "If you want to splash dirty water on me, do you have to find a reason?" ”
Seeing that Fang Siqi didn't know anything, Mrs. Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "A few days ago, Yingying sent someone to assassinate you, but she was stopped by the people of the prince of Chu before you arrived at the Shen mansion. ”
"Your husband knew about this, and he made a stumbling block for Yuan Jia repeatedly. The prince is also going to take a break because of this. ”
Mrs. Yuan looked at Fang Siqi, "Mrs. Shen, I know that I am a little shameless when I say this, Yingying She really knows that she is wrong, and we will punish her." Fortunately, you have not been substantially harmed, can you intercede with your husband and the prince of Chu and spare her this time? ”
"I'm going to teach her a good lesson this time, so that she won't make this mistake again..."
"Yingying's daughter is still young, not yet three years old, she really can't live without her mother!"
In the end, Mrs. Yuan mentioned, "Mrs. Shen, if you have any requests, as long as you can calm this matter and pay a big price, my Yuan family is willing to bear it." ”
