Chapter 42: Dignity and Humility
At night, the eldest lady stayed in the eldest lady's room as usual, and the eldest lady gently pressed the eldest lady's temples to massage him while speaking.
"Master, Mingzhen is no longer in trouble, and her mother took her over to take care of her."
"That's good, you still have to pay attention to the black smoke miasma over there in the second room, after all, we are not separated, and we must be connected with the same qi."
The strength of the eldest lady is just right, the eldest lord said with his eyes closed.
"I know it, but the second room is really not like that, the Sun family only knows the husband and the child, and there is no interest at all, and he was climbed to the head by a cheap concubine."
I don't know if I'm too angry, the eldest lady actually hurt the eldest master.
"Hey, you're good at it."
"Your aunts have soft hands, you go to them, I'm not the bun in the second room." The eldest lady simply didn't press the eldest man, twisted her body and poured a cup of tea for herself.
"My good lady, my husband is wrong, I'm not the second brother's can't figure it out, how can those playthings compare to my lady."
The eldest man took the eldest lady's hand and kissed it on the lips.
"Tsk." The eldest lady's face was slightly red, the eldest lady had always been very good to her, which was like the second room, and the eldest lady was a little bored when she thought of the second room.
"Do you think that what happened over there will affect our Mingyu's marriage?"
"The first to bear the brunt is Mingzhen, it doesn't have much impact on Mingyu, so I want to see if my second brother is reluctant." The eldest man shook his head, "It's just a pity that Mingzhen's girl, such a transparent and smart girl has been dragged down like this." ”
"Don't praise Mingzhen here, Mingzhen is good, but our Mingyu is not bad." The eldest lady lightly slapped the eldest master, "If it weren't for the fear of affecting our family, I would like to carry a chair to watch the play, and also serve the lord, the concubines in the house can be trampled like this." ”
"Alright, let's rest."
The eldest man took the eldest lady and walked to the bed.
Ziyu looked at Shen Mingzhen's already improved face, and asked with her chin propped up.
"Miss, why do you even have to hide it from your wife?"
"And Aunt Zhu and the eldest lady have also reformed now, why do you still want to attack them."
That's right, she is not that serious, but it is just a bitter trick to make her mother make up her mind, and in this life, Mrs. Zhu is really as arrogant and domineering as in her previous life.
She doesn't want to be a person with a deep city, but Aunt Zhu is not credible, the lessons of her previous life are still vivid, and she can't and won't let her go.
"Ziyu, you have to know that your nature is difficult to change, don't try to test people's hearts, believe in yourself."
In her previous life, she believed in people's hearts too much, thinking that sincerity could be exchanged for sincerity, but this was not the case.
"Some people, not just look at the surface, there was no sister-in-law in the house before, Aunt Zhu was still restless, and now that she has An'er, then Aunt Zhu's two sons will sooner or later become the reason why Aunt Zhu will attack An'er.
Sooner or later, I will get married, but before that, I have to force my mother to stand up and be able to hold up the status of An'er and Bao'er. ”
Ziyu nodded as if she didn't understand, I see, no wonder Miss would let me inform Imperial Doctor Hu in advance what to say.
"Alright, go to sleep, it's late at night." Shen Mingzhen covered her body with a quilt and closed her eyes.
Song Chenyu, who was sitting on the roof, let out a chuckle, but he underestimated this girl, but for some reason, things now seem to be different from the previous life.
It seems that things are a little beyond his expectations, I thought that I could slowly capture the heart of this little girl step by step, but now it seems that it is not so easy, that little girl is not ordinary smart.
It's just that I don't know why such a smart little girl was blind in her life.
Zimo on another branch helplessly watched his general sitting on the roof of someone else's house in a dignified manner, not knowing what he wanted to do, could it be that this squire's mansion was the reason why the general came back early, this squire was such a character, could it be, what is it, is it a rebellion.
Thinking of this, the more Zimo thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, the people who couldn't be summoned by their generals were now squatting in Shilang's mansion to eavesdrop, it must be because Shen Shilang intended to rebel.
The general has really worked hard.
"Let's go, what are you doing there?" Song Chenyu patted Zimo's head and jumped up a few times to leave the Shilang Mansion, his guard's kung fu is first-class, but his brain is not very good.
Zimo quickly caught up with his hard-working general.
Early the next morning.
"If you go to Zhuangzi, take good care of yourself, don't be angry." Aunt Zhu looked at the deserted streets in front of her, as well as some dilapidated carriages, and instantly burst into tears of grievance, and she couldn't listen to what Master Shen said.
Mrs. Sun stood there and watched them say goodbye, like a superfluous person, whose concubine was demoted to the old man Zhuangzi and the housewife came out to give it away, and she was special Aunt Zhu.
"Yo, what is Shen Shilang doing?" The head of the chamberlain, Gonggong Jiang, looked at Master Shen's appearance and said sarcastically.
"Why is Grandpa Jiang here?" Master Shen saluted Gonggong Jiang, this is a celebrity around the official family.
"This is the concubine's room, it doesn't look special, why is Shen Shilang so reluctant?" Father-in-law Jiang didn't reply to Master Shen's words, but glanced at Aunt Zhu who was wiping her tears, "This woman, crying and crying is the most annoying, and I don't know how this man thinks, I think Mrs. Sun is a model of a woman, neither humble nor arrogant." ”
Mrs. Sun, who was named, was stunned and hurriedly saluted, she knew very little about the people in the officialdom, but the person who Master Shen had to treat with courtesy must be a big person.
"Eh, that's unbearable." Gonggong Jiang hurriedly dodged sideways, this is the official family's decree lady, he didn't dare to accept this gift.
Mrs. Sun looked at Master Shen a little bewildered, and Master Shen nodded to her to indicate that it was okay.
"My wife has given birth to a good daughter." As if seeing Mrs. Sun's overwhelm, Gonggong Jiang's tone became more and more kind.
"What does this have to do with Zhen'er?" Mrs. Sun sensed Gonggong Jiang's kindness, and heard him mention Shen Mingzhen's suspicious question.
"Second Miss Shen has made a great contribution to this plague, and the official family remembered her merits, but the second miss is still young, so the official family gave the reward to the lady.
Now Mrs. is a second-grade lady, and there is no need to salute below the same level, and our family can't afford Mrs. Etiquette. ”
Gonggong Jiang took out the edict from his sleeve, and the little eunuch who followed behind him held the edict suit.
"Because this plague has just passed, it is not suitable to operate on a large scale, so everything will be simplified, and Mrs. has been wronged."
Mrs. Sun was still in a state of frustration when she took the decree paperwork, and she didn't react until Master Shen patted her.
Gonggong Jiang glanced at Master Shen, but he couldn't help but speak: "Lord Shilang, the respect and humility of the concubine are things that my dynasty attaches great importance to, don't put the cart before the horse."
With that, he turned and left.
"What did you say?" Shen Mingzhen heard the news from Ziyu, which was not what he expected, although she had merit, but at most it was some gold, silver and jewelry, how could she canonize the fate.
Others are too happy, but Shen Mingzhen is different, she knows that the interests of those in power come first, even if she was in the back house in her previous life, she also knew that the current official family... Lives are short-lived.
But getting too much attention from him puts himself on the cusp, which is not a good thing.
"Miss, it's a good thing that my wife has been ordered, why don't you seem to be happy." Ziyu poured a glass of water for Shen Mingzhen, which was a little strange.
"There is no merit, I have to pay a little for what I get, but what can the official family need me to pay?"
Shen Mingzhen looked at the lush flowers and plants outside the window, and the old lady now likes to raise flowers and grass more and more.
Song Chenyu didn't know that the lady he asked for would make Shen Mingzhen panic, which led to what happened later, and he was now waiting for someone in the teahouse.
"What is General Song looking for the old man?" Imperial Physician Hu looked at the expressionless man opposite, and felt that the whole room was cold.
Song Chenyu put a dark yellow ancient book on the table from his arms.
Imperial Physician Hu's eyes lit up, and he carefully picked up the ancient book.
"It's... The rumored holy scriptures of medicine? ”
"That's right." Song Chenyu took a sip of tea and continued, "I don't know if this book is enough for me to have a condition for Imperial Doctor Hu?" ”
"Huh? Of course, of course, as long as the book is mine, I promise you anything. Imperial Physician Hu was already addicted to medical skills, Song Chenyu smiled and poured a cup of tea for Imperial Physician Hu.
"Then thank you Dr. Hu."
Doctor Hu was so confused that he made a condition.
And for Song Chenyu, it was a gift he specially found for Shen Mingzhen, giving her the master is equivalent to giving it to her, how much Imperial Doctor Hu likes Shen Mingzhen, a little apprentice, can be known from his willingness to help Shen Mingzhen lie about his condition.
It wasn't until later when Song Chenyu hugged his beloved little apprentice that he knew that he had lured the wolf into the room.
Sure enough, Imperial Physician Hu hurriedly came to the Shen Mansion.
"Little apprentice, look at what a good treasure the master has gotten." Imperial Physician Hu quietly took out the ancient book on the grounds of follow-up consultation.
"What is this?" Shen Mingzhen took the ancient book and looked at it casually.
"Be careful, it's priceless. Dead girl, you lighten up. Seeing that Shen Mingzhen was a little hard, Imperial Doctor Hu jumped up and said.
Shen Mingzhen was attracted by this book at a glance, and the knowledge introduced in it was more comprehensive and easy to understand than anything she had ever seen.
"How about it, it's a good baby, I'll show it to you as soon as I get it." Seeing that Shen Mingzhen had closed his medical skills, Imperial Physician Hu said triumphantly.
Shen Mingzhen's eyes flashed.
"Master, where did you get this book?"
Imperial Physician Hu thought of Song Chenyu's face and pursed his lips: "I got it from General Song."
General Song Xiao, Song Chenyu, Song Ziyi's third uncle, Shen Mingzhen is undeniable, Song Chenyu is the only person who expressed kindness to her in her previous life.
"What's wrong, is there something wrong?" Seeing that Shen Mingzhen was stunned, Imperial Physician Hu was a little puzzled.
"It's okay, master, with this medical book, we will definitely be able to save more people." Shen Mingzhen shook off the people in her mind, anyway, she and the Song family have nothing to do with each other in this life.
"Yes, yes, this is a wonderful book, with a lot of cases that we have never heard of before."
The master and apprentice studied this medical book.
"Are you satisfied?" Master Shen was sitting in Mrs. Sun's courtyard, and he also knew that Aunt Zhu had nothing to do with anyone, but no one could get out of the matter, so he asked with a calm face.
Mrs. Sun was stunned for a moment, poured some of the remaining footwashing water used by Master Shen, and said in a calm tone: "What nonsense is this talking about, how can I be dissatisfied."
"Don't pretend to be confused, don't you just want me to send Aunt Zhu away by threatening me with Heli.
When will you start playing these tricks, I really underestimate you. Master Shen snorted coldly.
"The master really misunderstood me, now Zhen'er and Mingzhu support each other, and I don't have any deep hatred with Aunt Zhu, why should I be such a wicked person?"
Mrs. Sun said softly.
"Now that Aunt Zhu is sent away, it is just a matter of necessity, if she is not sent away, then how can the people in this city laugh at the old man and laugh at the Shen family.
Ah, Yao is just worried that the master is too affectionate and will put our Shen Mansion in a dangerous situation. ”
"Really?" Obviously, Mrs. Sun's gentle persuasion was still useful.
"That's natural, now that Aunt Zhu is gone, there is nothing to serve the master, wait for a while, Ah Yao will choose a caring maid to take care of you."
Mrs. Sun pinched Master Shen's shoulders and massaged him.
"In the past few days, Bao'er and An'er don't know if they haven't seen their father for too long, but they are a little quiet, not so noisy, and the master may as well go and see them when he is free.
Zhen'er didn't have much chance to see when he was young, this child is changing every day, and the master will look at it more, otherwise the children will grow up. ”
"I'll go to see them tomorrow when I'm free, An'er is my sister-in-law, and I must teach them well." Master Shen's topic was bypassed at once, and when he thought of the pair of dragon and phoenix fetal children, he was a little happy.
"You teach your children well, Zhen'er is so sensible now, and I am lucky to have a wife like you."
Mrs. Sun's eyes turned red at the right time.
"Master, if only you could think like that."
"I've neglected you all these years, and although it wasn't my wish to marry you back then, it's not your fault." Master Shen rarely felt a little guilty, and reached out to wipe away the tears on Mrs. Sun's face, "Although we are all middle-aged now, I will definitely treat you well from now on." ”
After speaking, he leaned towards Mrs. Sun.
After some turmoil, Mrs. Sun turned her back to Master Shen, her face was still flushed with passion, but there was no nostalgia in her eyes.
If she didn't know this man's temperament well, I'm afraid she really believed his words, but unfortunately, no matter who is gentle and careless and understands his words, he can get his softheart.
