Chapter Seventy-One: Duty
Duty
Aunt Li was still hesitant and didn't speak, but Aunt Zhou clapped her hands next to her and laughed, "Oh, I've heard about this too!" ”
"Uncle is the leader of the guard, and he personally agreed to accept the eighth young master as a disciple, do you still need to worry about the future of the eighth young master in the future?"
"When I heard Sister Li talk about it this morning, I was happy with it......
Aunt Zhou said as she gave Aunt Li a look.
Aunt Li was still stunned, pursed her lips and didn't speak, she was in a hurry when Aunt Zhou pulled her sleeves next to her, and then she popped out a sentence, "Mrs...... Can the Eighth Young Master ...... Don't you go? ”
When Aunt Zhou heard this, she couldn't wait to plug Aunt Li's mouth, and when she saw Shen's face, she couldn't wait to say goodbye and avoid it.
But this bowed skirt moved, revealing a little bit of extremely delicate embroidered toe toes.
This is the shoe made for her by Aunt Li, the bottom is particularly thick, and the shoe is inlaid with a layer of rabbit fur, which is extremely painstaking to make.
In order for her Shu people to be unaccustomed to the cold in the north, she deliberately rushed for half a month, and the upper was made of the peach color she liked, embroidered with golden plum blossoms, and she liked it at first sight.
There are also sachets on skirts, cotton covers on the hand stove......
Aunt Li is idle, and always remembers to embroider something for her and Sister Mei.
Aunt Zhou looked at it like this, she was embarrassed to move, so she could only stand to the side, thinking about what the nerd next to her was talking nonsense, she could help with the drawing.
Shen didn't get angry immediately, but asked Lotus Leaf to change a cup of hotter tea for herself, and took a sip slowly before looking at Aunt Li, "Why is this?" ”
Aunt Li also knew that what she said was wrong, but she still knelt on the ground with her head down and said, "Madam...... The eighth young master has always been weak. ”
"When I was a child, I almost lost my breath a few times, but my wife was kind, and the concubine watched it day and night, so it was easy to grow so big."
"Now that I'm in Beijing, it's finally not like the three disasters in the past, and the concubine just breathed a sigh of relief, but she has to be sent to someone else's house again."
"No matter how good this is, it's not as convenient as your own family affairs, isn't it?"
"What's more...... It's not easy to come back after this, concubine...... I can't bear to ......."
It was the first time that Aunt Li had said such a mess in front of the Shen family, and she was also beating a drum in her heart.
"Actually...... The concubine thought, if it is for the eighth young master to strengthen his body, there is no need to go to his uncle's house, and there is no master who can teach martial arts in our family school......"
"Eighth Young Master, it's okay to stay at home."
Shen looked at Aunt Li, who was already kneeling on the ground as she spoke, and only spoke after a while, "Is this your idea, or is it the Eighth Young Master's idea?" ”
Aunt Li was asked by Shen like this, and shrunk back and replied, "It's the meaning of the concubine." ”
"Lee." Shen's voice came from above, clear and bright, with the gentleness and bearing taught by the women of the family.
"In Su Rili, I leave the affairs of the eighth young master to you to manage, first, I have many children of my own, I really can't take care of it, you are his biological mother, you are always more careful."
"Second, I pity you, the old man is uncertain, he got you to the house in a good manner, and it didn't take long to throw him away, you have such a son, and it's easy to pass the ordinary life."
"Yes, the concubine has relied on his wife's kindness for so many years." Aunt Li knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"It's good that you know that." Shen nodded.
"You must know, whether you or Aunt Zhou, it is not the lord or your children who can have today's life, but me."
When Aunt Zhou heard Shen's words, she also knelt directly on the ground.
"Let you stay with the young master, and take care of your face, saying that it is to help take care of it, but in fact, to put it mildly, it is to serve."
"Young Master, you are a serious master in the house, but you are not."
"The master's order, the master's idea, what qualifications do you have?"
"If you are a concubine, how can you have your own children?"
Aunt Li was almost nailed to the ground by Shen's words.
"What you said today, dare to have the confidence to say it, firstly, because I am generous, secondly, I think that my mother is strong, and thirdly, I rely on the so-called mother-son relationship to become more and more miserable."
"This matter was proposed by the uncle, the eighth young master was willing, and what I personally agreed to was the master, so it stands to reason that you shouldn't even say a word, let alone go over the eighth young master to ask me to change my mind?"
"If this matter is stopped, you can also call the eighth young master to come."
"It's not up to you to make up your mind, if Aunt Li is idle, there is still a red plum four-leaf partition screen missing in my house, and you have to embroider empty."
"I'm not sure I'll want it when I think about it, and then I'll have ......"
Shen turned his head and saw Aunt Zhou kneeling with Aunt Li, "When spring begins, let's clean up the Shufen Pavilion, and the ten girls will move out to live by themselves." ”
Then without waiting for Aunt Zhou and Aunt Li to say anything, she had already gotten up, "I'm tired, you guys go back." ”
Aunt Li and Aunt Zhou had to retire, and walked out of Songcui Garden uneasily, and as soon as she crossed the courtyard gate, Aunt Li lowered her head and compensated Aunt Zhou first.
"I'm sorry, sister, I'm the one who hurt you this time."
"That's it......" The matter has come to this point, Aunt Zhou can't help it, so she raised her hand listlessly, "Otherwise, the tenth girl will also see that it is time to be moved out, besides, Shufenting is not far from me, three or five steps." ”
Then he turned his face to look at Aunt Li's sad face, and after a few glances, he really couldn't stand it, he left, turned around and came back, gritted his teeth and twisted Aunt Li's arm, fortunately, the thick clothes didn't hurt in winter.
"Are you stupid?! What a good thing that is! Aunt Zhou's fingers were about to poke Aunt Li's face.
"I've been telling you for a long time, why don't you understand? This is a good thing that can make the eighth young master have a great future! ”
"This is also to meet such a housewife in our family, the eighth young master can have this good fortune, but if you change one, you can dream of it!"
Aunt Zhou's family does some business, although she can't see high-ranking families on weekdays, but there are landlords and squires.
"Let me tell you, you just don't know the blessings in the blessings, let's take the family in the east of our house as an example, there are only two sons, the eldest wife guards against thieves every day, and doesn't let the younger son study or do business."
"I'm afraid that there will be a chance to rob her son's things, and the younger son is restrained, like a waste, he has become a young lady in the boudoir, and he can't step out of the door."
"Do you want your brother Chun to be like this?"
Aunt Li immediately shook her head when she heard this, "How can that happen?!" ”
"That's right!" Aunt Zhou nodded, "Man, don't you ask him to go out and make contributions, do you want to let him be like a daughter in the future, and someone will marry him with a red hijab, and take care of him for the rest of his life?" ”
