Chapter 16: The Newcomer (I)

Newcomer (Part I)

"Is something wrong?" An Cheng asked Su Xin, Shen is a very regular person, and the travel time is arranged before departure, why did it suddenly change?

Haven't heard anything about An Cheng before he fell asleep yesterday......

Su Xin moved her lips, although she didn't know last night, she heard about it when she got up early in the morning, but Grandma Sun had already instructed the girl not to listen to these words...... So I just smiled," Sister Hezhi didn't say. ”

"Girl, wear this, two little cinnamon earbuds, very bright." Su Xin checked the contents of the jewelry box and chose a pair of golden ones.

"Okay." knew that Su Xin didn't want to say it, and An Cheng didn't want to embarrass her.

When An Cheng was eating here, Shen had already eaten, and he and the second master were sitting on the chairs in the side hall, with Aunt Li and Aunt Zhou standing at the bottom, and the new aunt of An Fu kneeling in the center of the hall.

"Xu, the master said that you sold yourself to bury your father, filial piety is touching, and your character is outstanding, and I am willing to hire you as a concubine, I have already responded, it stands to reason that ......" Shen's words were like a typed draft, and the words like flowing water came out.

"You are the daughter of a scholar's family, if you are hired, it is not a second room, it has to be a concubine, and you must set up a few tables for banquets, but the journey is inconvenient, just remember it first, and wait until you return to Beijing."

Aunt Xu saluted the Shen family softly, but her eyes swept towards the second master, "Concubine, thank you, Mrs. Master, it's all up to Mrs. Master." ”

The second master was swept by the wind in his eyes, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by the Shen family.

"It stands to reason that if you become a concubine, then you are not your mother's family, but you are an only daughter, and you have entered the eyes of the lord with filial piety, if you are told to stop keeping filial piety, it doesn't seem to be very close?" Shen himself wanted to laugh out loud when he said it, and he covered it up with a handkerchief, still in a gentle tone.

Aunt Xu was said by Shen to be "filial piety", and then she caught a glimpse of the eyes of the maids and the two aunts in the house, as well as the moon-white shirt she brought on her body, which was also a little ridiculous, not as explicit as just now, and lowered her head in response.

"That being the case, then allow you to keep your filial piety, so that outsiders can see and know that we are a family of respectful and filial piety." Shen made the final decision.

"This ......" The second master hesitated a little, if they kept filial piety, they couldn't ...... anymore

Shen didn't even need to look at him to know what the second master was thinking, "As long as you don't make any trouble, just pay attention to your clothes." Wanyan persuaded the second master, "After all, if you want to go back to Beijing, you should pay attention." ”

In these matters, the second master can still trust the Shen family, who has been dealing with the county lord of Feng'an since he was a child, "It's okay, then listen to you." ”

"Even if you become our aunt, you must have the bearing of an official eunuch." Shen's eyes scratched over Aunt Xu's body, "Lotus leaf, ask you to bring the materials you prepared." ”

"It's all moon white, light purple, plain blue and other colors, you can wear it appropriately."

Aunt Xu saw that although the color of the material was plain, it was like light, soft and bright, and her eyes couldn't help but bring a little smile, "Thank you, Mrs." ”

Shen nodded, and looked at the two aunts beside him, "It's all the same, don't say I'm biased, and I also ordered the embroidery lady to make a suit for the two of you." ”

Aunt Li should go down first and salute the Shen family, "Mrs. Xie." ”

Aunt Zhou kept staring at the little white flower with her eyes wrong, and she didn't even pay attention to what Shen said, and Aunt Li secretly pulled her sleeves before she reacted, and hurriedly saluted, "Mrs. Xie." ”

"Okay, that is, the name is decided, and my two aunts and I should give a meeting gift." Shen didn't care about the two aunts' thanks.

When Aunt Li heard this, her heart was a little drumming, she was not just reluctant...... It's that all the jewelry she has seen over the years has been used to buy supplements for her son.

The bracelet in her hand was given by the Shen family yesterday, but she still wanted to give it to her younger brother to marry a daughter-in-law...... For a while, it will be even more difficult to give a meeting gift, thinking about it, and his face is a little cramped.

Aunt Zhou is completely unwilling, her stuff, to this little fox? Bah! A mouthful of foam and spit in her face as a greeting gift!

Aunt Zhou hated it in her heart, and the handkerchief on her hand was about to be torn.

Shen didn't seem to see the expressions of the two aunts, "But when they came, they probably didn't know anything, and they didn't necessarily bring anything suitable for you, so I'll give it for them." ”

Aunt Li was overjoyed, and she sincerely thanked her, and even smoothed out Aunt Zhou's motherishness.

"Lotus seed, bring the head of the plain silver inlaid with pearls, this is what I gave you." Shen's attitude is very gentle, even better than his attitude towards the second master.

"Then there are this pair of white jade twist bracelets and a crystal flounder pendant, which I gave for your two sisters."

Aunt Xu thanked her, followed herself, and then stood up, and Shen gave her her two third-class maids, "Make it first, and wait until you get to the capital to change it." ”

As he was talking, Lianzi came in, glanced at Aunt Xu, and replied to Shen, "Madam, it was said outside that the carriages and horses were ready, and when did you leave?" ”

"Then clean it up." Shen explained to the two aunts, "You also go back and pack up your things for Sister Mei and Brother Chun." ”

"There are ...... more," Shen took a sip of tea, "Aunt Xu doesn't have more carriages and horses, so let her and Aunt Zhou get off first." ”

"Ah...... Yes...... I? Aunt Zhou was surprised for a while, and she couldn't speak.

Shen nodded, she had a point, "Brother Chun'er is not in good health, where can I let Aunt Xu go again?" You and Aunt Xu are also of the same age, and we can usually talk together. ”

Aunt Zhou was reluctant and did not dare to disobey Shen's order, and looked at the second master again, but no one looked at her, and only looked at Aunt Xu, sad and angry, "Yes." ”

Aunt Xu shyly saluted Aunt Zhou, "I'm bothering my sister." ”

With a happy look of his wife and concubine, the second master looked very satisfied and stood up, "Then I'll go outside first." ”

"Master-" Seeing that he was leaving, Shen didn't say anything, Aunt Xu took a step forward timidly, reluctant with red eyes, and stopped talking.

Aunt Li lowered her head and shrank back, not wanting to provoke anything.

Aunt Zhou's eyes were about to fall out, and she didn't dare to poke Shen's eyes like this when she was most affectionate, she would be inferior to others all her life as a concubine.

The second master didn't dare to poke Shen like this, and he also felt in his heart that the little beauty didn't look at the occasion, but with the red circles under her eyes, it was not easy to say anything serious.

"What do you have to say to your wife, she is the most virtuous." The second old man said that he saw that Shen Shi, who had already stood up to send him, and his heart was also beating, although this time it seemed to be ...... Too virtuous?

"Don't worry, master, I'll take care of Sister Xu." Shen said, and the lotus leaf behind him silently supported Aunt Xu, who saw that she was still a little short of breath, and she didn't break away at once.

"Oh, why are my aunt's eyes red? But the eyes are uncomfortable, the slave maid will give you some medicine, this eye is not a trivial matter......" spoke crisply and quickly, so that Aunt Xu couldn't find a chance to interject, so she could only watch the second master leave.

"Go back too." After Shen's words, the two aunts retired.

Finally got out of the Shen family's house, Aunt Zhou threw the veil directly and patted her chest fiercely, "Master Tianwang!" Suffocate me! Look at her virtue! ”
