The embroidered characters on the money bag were scraped off, and several gold threads appeared to be broken.

Shen Zhao was embarrassed to explain that when he was playing with people, the money bag was torn and the gold thread was also hooked off.

"That's ......"

Liu pinched the money bag and smiled awkwardly.

It is rumored in the capital that Shen Zhao likes beauty, and his words and deeds are ineffective when he plays with beauties. Liu thought to himself that Shen Zhao's money bag must have been torn by some beauty. The money bag belongs to the close thing, and Shen Zhao's beauty should compete to embroider it for him, it seems inappropriate for this life to fall into her hands.

Liu Shi looked at Shen Lu, who lowered his head to eat and didn't pay attention to her.

"Is my aunt embarrassed?"

"How could Sister Liu be embarrassed!"

Wang took Shen Zhao's words, "Liu, you can embroider Zhao'er as soon as possible." You are also his elder, and the elders are also lucky to do embroidery work for the juniors. ”

Wang dispelled Liu's thoughts, and Liu nodded and put away Shen Zhao's broken money bag.

The five concubines didn't dare to talk much during the banquet, and Mrs. Shen didn't talk much today, for fear that the banquet would be cold, and the Wang family kept talking about the topic. After a while, he asked Zhao Youling if he would go back to Huaiwang's Mansion after lunch, and then asked his daughter Shen Rongzi if the newly made clothes were suitable, and if she wanted to make a few more pairs of jewelry......

When it comes to the newly made clothes, Shen Rongzi's face is not good, her innocence was almost ruined by the lustful prince, and her memory is too bad. Except for a new set of clothes for her grandmother's birthday, she locked all the other new clothes in the cage, afraid that she would see it again and recall the terrible scene.

"No need, I will dress up like Sister Ling'er in the future, simple, refreshing, good-looking and comfortable."

The Wang family didn't notice Shen Rongzi's unhappy expression, and stirred up the topic to ask Shen Lu what news there was in the early dynasty. How did the case of Shen Zhao and Mu Hanchi end, whether the real culprit was found, whether it would be decided immediately, the case personally supervised by the emperor, the ministers could not help but do their best......

Shen Lu stared at the Wang family for a moment, and his expression was clearly disgusted that she talked too much.

The big family pays attention to "food without saying a word", and the look of being stared at by her husband made Wang stop the topic, smiled wryly, turned around and told Wei's mother to hurry up and prepare the snacks after the meal, and Mrs. Tai was going to the pavilion in the back garden to enjoy the flowers after the meal.

"The flowers at noon are wilting, can they look good?"

Zhou, who has been in the mansion for the longest time, said without thinking. Before Zhou's words fell, several other concubines immediately looked at her, blaming her for talking too much in their eyes. On this occasion, which turn can the concubine speak. What's more, Shen Lu stared at the Wang family reproachfully just now, and the Wang family's face could no longer be hung up. If Shen Lu didn't blame the Zhou family, the Wang family was afraid that her status in the mansion would not be as good as before.

"All year round, twelve hours a day, every moment of the flowers have a different fresh posture, Mrs. Tai appreciates the beauty of the flowers."

Shen Lu's white eyes glanced at Zhou more than black eyes.

Zhou smiled and said:

"A cheap concubine is a rough person, which is like Mrs. Tai, who is of noble birth and knows the beauty of a flower and a world best."

Zhou was originally a domestic slave of Mrs. Shen's mother's family, and Zhou Zheng had a gentle personality. The Wang family entered the palace for a year and did not conceive a child, so Mrs. Shen made the Zhou family a concubine for Shen Lu.

Zhou was pregnant with two children, one was a boy, Shen Lu's first son, who died before he was born. The girl born to the second child was two months younger than Shen Zhao, but unfortunately she got sick when she was one year old. At this time, Mrs. Shen found the second concubine Yang for her son to enter the house, and it didn't take long for Yang to become pregnant with a girl.

Since then, Zhou and Yang have not been pregnant. Later, the concubine who entered the door was not pregnant, but the Wang family gave birth to a daughter Shen Rongzi.

Zhou consciously gave birth to two children, and spoke more directly than other concubines.

"Mrs. Tai can also write, paint, read, and sing lyrics, and the flowers she paints are more real than the real ones."

All the concubines echoed Zhou's words in unison.

Old Lady Shen squinted and laughed when she heard this, put down her wine glass and got up, and prepared to go to the pavilion in the back garden with the help of Zhao Youling and Shen Rongzi.

"Zhao'er come along, grandmother wants to listen to Zhao'er's poems of flowers today."

Mrs. Shen beckoned to Shen Zhao, who happily agreed, said goodbye to his parents and left the table, and reminded Liu again that he would use the new money bag at night.

"Tonight, Xunfang Pavilion is going to select the beauties who will participate in the Beijing Oiran Competition, why is there one less vote I cast."

Shen Zhao winked at the Liu family, then turned around in a dashing manner and chased after his grandmother to the back garden.

Liu seemed to be stunned by the "autumn wave" secretly sent by Shen Zhao, and he was stunned for a while before he remembered that it was best to start work now, so that he could take it to Shen Zhao in front of the palm lamp.

In the gazebo in the back garden, Mrs. Shen leaned on the wooden railing of the gazebo, looking at the garden in the afternoon, her squinted eyes were only a slit, and she looked like she was sleeping.

Zhao Youling, Shen Rongzi and Shen Zhao were afraid of disturbing the tranquility of Old Lady Shen, so they didn't dare to make a sound, and silently accompanied Old Lady Shen, and could only make eye contact with each other.

Shen Rongzi raised his chin at Shen Zhao, and then turned to look at the jade pendant that Zhao Youling tied around his waist.

Shen Zhao understood what Shen Rongzi meant, and his father gave Zhao Youling the precious jade pendant given by his grandmother, which was a bit unexpected.

At that time, my grandmother got two jade blanks, and one of the inconspicuous stone blanks was broken open, and it turned out to be a thousand-year-old chalcedony. My grandmother found a famous craftsman in the capital to carve and carved three jade pieces for more than a month, two of which were sent to the palace to the two aunts, and a moire jade pendant was given to the father.

The treatment of the righteous daughter is even better than that of their brothers and sisters, Shen Rongzi feels that she should not be jealous of Zhao Youling, Zhao Youling is her benefactor, but looking at the jade pendant on Zhao Youling's waist, she still can't help but be envious and jealous.

She liked to sit on her father's lap since she was a child, playing with the jade pendant on her father's waist, and once asked her father for a jade pendant, but her father said that the jade pendant he tied was a man's thing, and the next day she gave her a piece of jade suitable for a girl to wear. As a result, my father unbuttoned the jade pendant that he had worn for more than ten years and gave it to Zhao Youling today......

It's hard to settle!

"Don't play dumb riddles, just say what you have to say, I'm not old and confused, I can sleep anywhere."

Old Mrs. Shen opened her eyes and looked at the jade pendant on Zhao Youling's waist, stretched out her hand to pull Shen Rongzi, and asked her if she was jealous of her father for giving Zhao Youling the jade pendant.

Shen Rongzi hurriedly denied it.

"When did Rong Rong have a disagreement?"

"The granddaughter doesn't dare, why did the father give Ling'er's sister something for the man to wear?"

Shen Rongzi flattened her mouth.

"This jade is also suitable for Ling'er! Zhao'er, do you think so? ”

"Grandmother is absolutely right."

Shen Zhao hurriedly gave up his hand in agreement.

"Grandmother, do you really think there are ghosts in our house? That money bag is produced by Linglong Embroidery Workshop, and it is not difficult for them to copy one. As for that piece of cloth, maybe the same one is sold in the capital now. ”

"Bad people must have their own set of reasons for doing bad things, and there is no reason for Linglong Embroidery Workshop to embarrass you. There are people in our house who think you're in the way...... Ling'er will return to the Huaiwang Mansion in a while, and she will also check carefully, I suspect that the ghosts in the Huaiwang Mansion are not simple, and if you can take Mu Hanchi's portable saber out of the mansion, the status in the Huaiwang Mansion should not be low. ”

Old Lady Shen narrowed her eyes again after speaking.
