Chapter 43: Return to Suzhou
Dingguo Mansion.
The eldest granddaughter-in-law, Shen, took Rong Yu to the courtyard of the second room, and explained: "Miss Rong, my second aunt is gentle and kind, sincerely worships the Buddha, treats people kindly, and rarely speaks seriously to the minions......
"It's been a bit different lately......"
"The Shao family has suffered a major change, and now there is a small brother in the long room, and there is a small brother in the third room, but there is also a north city in the third room, but the second room is ......."
Rong Yu looked up at Shen, and Shen's eyes were sincere.
What Shen said is also true, now only the second room has no children and no grandchildren, and only two widows are left to rely on each other......
It is indeed bleak......
But, how innocent is Rong Hua?
Rong Yu thought for a while and said to Shen: "Young lady, the second lady has changed her temperament because of the grief in her heart, everyone can understand ......."
"Come to think of it, my sister has the same sorrow in her heart......"
"Don't say that it is a high gate like the Shao family, it is an ordinary family outside, if there is a festival woman in the family, everyone must respect and pity her, and there is rarely a ...... of the festival woman who puts her mother-in-law and mother-in-law in court."
Shen said apologetically: "That's the reason......"
"It's just that, emotionally speaking, now the second aunt's temperament has changed, if she doesn't follow her wishes and provoke her again, I don't know what will happen......"
"Logically speaking, the second aunt is the serious mother-in-law of the second brother and sister, and she restricts her daughter-in-law, even the ancestor is not good to interfere too much."
According to Shen's rhetoric, it has become a reasonable thing to treat the festival woman harshly?
Rong Yu stopped and looked at Shen solemnly.
Shen hurriedly continued: "Naturally, the Shao family is not a mean family, and the Shao family respects the second brother and sister from top to bottom......
"The old ancestor has spoken, if the second aunt still hasn't figured it out after a while, her old man will definitely not sit idly by!"
How to deal with the Guan family still depends on Rong Hua's intentions......
Rong Yu stopped talking and silently followed Shen.
After the Shen family sent Rong Yu to Rong Hua's house, they left, leaving their sisters to talk.
Rong Yu told Rong Hua about the situation when the Guan family stopped Shen Xun, and after speaking, he felt full of anger: "Big sister, your mother-in-law is really excessive!" ”
Rong Hua said softly: "She is my mother-in-law, I can only follow her ......"
Rong Yu interrupted Rong Hua: "You can't think like this!" If you blindly follow her, she will never find out with her conscience, and maybe it will get worse......"
Rong Hua persuaded Rong Yu: "That's it......"
asked Rong Yu again: "What's going on with my grandfather's illness?" How is his old man's health? ”
The illness of the old lady of the Shen family......
Rong Yu approached Rong Hua and said in a low voice: "Shen Xun said that my grandfather was not ill, but because the donation was too ostentatious, his old man deliberately released the news that he was distressed and fell ill with anger, you don't have to worry!" ”
Rong Hua frowned lightly: "This time, for my own selfishness and recklessness, I implicated the Shen family, and if I want to come to find my brother to enter Beijing this time, I have to visit many high-ranking officials and send a lot of money......
She thought for a while and said to Rong Yu: "I have to ask my grandfather in person, you send a message to Brother Xun for me, just say that I will go back to Suzhou after next year, and I will send someone to send him a letter." ”
Back to Suzhou......
Rong Yu said with a smile: "In my grandfather's heart, big sister, you are much more valuable than gold, and his old man will not blame you!" ”
"However, it's a good idea to go back to Suzhou, and you can avoid your hateful mother-in-law......"
Rong Hua also smiled.
Rong Yuyang Ronghua said: "Can you take me back to Suzhou next year?" ”
She really wanted to go to Suzhou.
Because Rong Heng didn't like his children to be very close to the Shen family, Rong Yu only went back to Suzhou with the little Shen family when he was a child, and his memory was vague.
She wants to go back to Suzhou now, not to yearn for the prosperity of Suzhou, but to see Xiao Shen's mother, her own grandmother.
Her maternal grandfather is a distant relative of the old lady of the Shen family, and he takes his wife and children to help in the Shen family. When Shen Xun's father met a horse bandit, her own uncle also suffered, and Mrs. Shen noticed this family.
Later, Mrs. Shen inherited the little Shen family to her own name, and then married her to Rong Heng as the lady of the house.
Xiao Shen's father and mother are poor but have integrity, although their daughter has to marry a high family, they don't want the Shen family's funding, as always, they help in the Shen family.
Today, Rong Yu's maternal grandfather has passed away, and his maternal grandmother is still alive.
In her previous life, she had only seen that old lady a few times.
When she returned to Suzhou when she was a child, her grandmother had the heart to be close to her and gave her the sugar cakes she had accumulated to eat, but she didn't look down on it......
When she was bedridden before she died, her elderly grandmother suffered from an eye disease, and an old lady who could not see clearly, could not read, and could not speak official language, followed the Shen family's delivery car to Kyoto, and carried a large bag of dried red dates to visit her.
It was only then that she regretted it.
She persuaded her grandmother to stay in Kyoto to care for the elderly, but her grandmother did not want to trouble Xiao Shen and her, and still followed the Shen family back to Suzhou with a bamboo pole.
Rong Yu was thinking about his grandmother, but he heard Rong Hua say: "Suzhou is far away, I am afraid that if I go back, I will miss your studies......"
"You don't want to follow Master Wei to study, just change the master, but your studies can't be wasted!"
At this time, Rong Hua's eldest maid walked into the house quickly, and she said to Rong Hua in embarrassment: "Second young lady, second lady is preparing to chant ......"
Rong Yu's eyes were not angry.
First stopped people, and then didn't even give enough time to say a few words!
Rong Hua patted Rong Yu's hand and said softly: "Don't be angry, I want to serve my mother-in-law to chant, you can go back first today!" ”
"Don't tell Brother Xun and Brother Ye about this verse......"
"Besides, I won't take you back this time, lest my mother-in-law find out, and I have to say that our sisters are about to go back to Suzhou to play together......"
Rong Hua is right......
Rong Yu hurriedly said goodbye to Rong Hua.
Shao Nanyan was waiting at the door of the second room to take her out.
When Rong Yu saw Shao Nanyan, his heart moved......
If she came to Shao's house to "visit Rong Hua", she would have to look at Guan's face when she returned......
But if she and Shao Nanyan became close friends......
Rong Yu made up her mind, affectionately grabbed Shao Nanyan's arm, and said with a smile: "Fourth Miss, I have always admired you, but now that I have seen your demeanor, I like you from the bottom of my heart!" ”
Shao Nanyan's body stiffened slightly, and he looked at Rong Yu at a loss......
This is the first time that a young lady of a similar age has walked with her affectionately......
She has been practicing martial arts with her father and brother since she was a child, and she is incompatible with the nobles of Kyoto, and she has no close friends......
Her second sister-in-law is beautiful and kind-hearted, and her second sister-in-law's third sister is open-minded, and it seems good to make such a friend......
Shao Nanyan also smiled at Rong Yu, and said a little shyly: "What do I ......have that you can admire?"
Rong Yu interrupted her words, and praised sincerely: "You are a young lady from the Guogong Mansion, but you don't have a delicate atmosphere, and you also have a good martial arts, don't say it's the ladies in the boudoir, it's the men outside, how many people can match you?!" ”
Shao Nanyan: ......
Shao Nanyan thought to himself: This Miss Rong San is really a discerning and honest person.
It's a pity that such a good young lady has a not-so-good reputation......
It's a pity that she is a woman, if she is a man, she can marry Miss Rong San!
……
Shao Nanyan stopped her thoughts, she and Rong Yu chatted about martial arts, food, and walked into the front hall affectionately.
In the front hall, Shao Beicheng, Rong Ye, and Shen Xun, who were hospitality, all looked at this pair of unique girlfriends curiously......
A tomboy and a chunky ......
But they didn't know it, and reluctantly said goodbye, saying that they would meet again next time......
In the carriage back to Rong Mansion, Shen Xun said to Rong Yu dissatisfiedly: "The people of the Shao family are not kind, you don't want to be too close to the fourth lady of the Shao family." ”
Rong Yu said: "The only one in the Shao family who is not kind is the Guan family...... The third son and the fourth lady of the Shao family are both upright and frank people! ”
Shen Xun asked rhetorically: "The third son of the Shao family? ”
Rong Yu was slightly shocked in her heart: although she had the intention to defend Shao Beicheng, it was not appropriate to tell her at will......
said a casual "um" on his face, and turned to talk about Rong Hua's return to Suzhou.
Shen Xun thought for a while and said, "Grandfather misses her in his heart, it's good for her to go back......"
"Everything is easy to arrange, I'm just worried that her mother-in-law won't allow her to travel easily......"
He said to Rong Yu: "After the year, I will go to the northwest to deliver military rations, and I will make arrangements before leaving." ”
Go to the northwest to deliver military rations......
Rong Yu looked at Shen Xun, and a thought that shocked her rose in her heart.
Everyone said that Shao Xize died in the northwest, but no one found his body......
Shen Xun is going to the northwest......
Rong Hua refused to take her back to Suzhou......
Her big sister is really a strange woman......
Then, she has to follow Rong Hua no matter what......
Otherwise, if Rong Huazhen went to the northwest, if she found Shao Xize's body, she might do something stupid again......
