Chapter 1073: Parting is imminent
"It's Madame's way!" Shen Nanzhi also smiled, each of the little goldfish in Lu Yunqi's hand was different, some with their mouths open, and some with their tails flicking, "When I was a child, my family celebrated the New Year, and my wife asked someone to cast this small and delicate little thing with gold for us to make New Year's money, I thought that children like these, so I asked someone to prepare a little for the little boy!" β
Later, Mo Zhu met with her and once said that although Lu Yunqi didn't like the little girl, he was still very good to the child - in the final analysis, it was his own blood and flesh, that is, he was born, he was helpless, and he was born by a scheme, and he couldn't abandon it. Shen Nanzhi was quite moved, thinking that Lu Yunqi was still what he imagined.
If Lu Yunqi is also indifferent to the child because he is disgusted with the manipulation of the wife at home, then he is an out-and-out bad person!
After learning that Lu Yunqi still had the heart of his parents and son for his little son, Shen Nanzhi felt that he was not rude, so he asked Chengfu of the second gate to go out and shoot more than 20 little goldfish back.
Seeing that Lu Yunqi liked it so much, Shen Nanzhi was relieved - it was a gift for the little son, but what can such a young child understand? The most important thing is that my father likes it!
"Then I'll take it for Brother Ping first." While speaking, Lu Yunqi had already put the little goldfish back in his purse, and his son was still young, so he didn't have his name, and he only used "Ping" as his milk name.
Shen Nanzhi looked at Lu Yunqi's small movements with a smile, only to see that after he put away the little goldfish, he kept groping for the embroidery on the purse with his hand, and only after a long time did he raise his head and say thoughtfully: "Hey-you purse, you shouldn't embroider wisteria flowers." β
"Then what am I embroidering?" Shen Nanzhi was slightly stunned, not knowing what Lu Yunqi was going to say, "The grandmother that Madame invited me said that I didn't have any charm in embroidery...... Well, I'm not the same material at all. β
Lu Yunqi smiled mysteriously and took the purse into his arms: "Mandarin duck!" β
With that, he got up, turned his head and walked away amid the chuckles of the crowd.
Shen Nanzhi was stunned for a while before he reacted, his face turned red, and he scolded loudly in the direction where Lu Yunqi left: "Lu Yunqi! You're kidding me! β
Naturally, there was no response, and the people of Qingyuan had already left with a big grin.
But now, the parting is imminent, and the shame in Shen Nanzhi's heart is replaced by the sadness of parting in a blink of an eye. Although Lu Yunqi's salute wheel was not cleaned up by himself, but this time he returned to Beijing to take away Jiang Wantang, Shen Nanzhi only remembered this matter after settling down, and said: "Hey, doesn't this mean that Jiang Wantang will also go to Beijing in three days?" β
As soon as Jiang Wantang was mentioned, everyone in the room was a little angry, and Zhuyun already grimaced impatiently, scolding: "That kind of person who betrays his lord and betrays his righteousness, what else does the girl want to do!" If she wants to go to Beijing, just go, and don't meddle in the future, whether she is dead or alive! Do you really think that if you follow Lord Lu, you will be able to make a room, and you can fly on the branches and become a phoenix! β
Shen Nanzhi smiled helplessly and patted Zhuyun's head: "After all, she has also been raised in our mansion for so many years, and she has to follow her with her dead face, but in the end, she will still bring us to the Shen Mansion, I don't worry, I have to ask a few words." β
The situation in Lu Yunqi's family is not simple, and the people in the house are even more not simple, the existing little lady has the support of the Hou Mansion's mother-in-law, and there is a son under her knees, and the two newcomers are all sent by the emperor himself, if Jiang Wantang really wants to work against them, I am afraid that the situation will be very difficult...... If the time is involved, the reputation of the Shen Mansion is not a trivial matter.
After thinking about it, Shen Nanzhi felt more and more that it was necessary to go and give instructions, whether she listened or notβit was good to listen, but if she refused to listen, then she would have made a mistake and she would have something to say.
After deciding, Shen Nanzhi asked Lilac to go to Qingyuan and called Jiang Wantang over, and by the way, asked Yuegui to come to Anyuan first and wait in the ear room.
Soon Jiang Wantang came.
I had long heard that she hadn't done anything for a few days in order to prepare for Lu Yunqi's return to Beijing, but when I saw Shen Nanzhi today, I realized what she had been doing these days-
The people who came in were dressed in a rose-red silk Meilan embroidered gown of the three gentlemen, and the whole person was dressed up delicately, and there were a few things worth a lot of money on their heads. If it is really a person who relies on clothes and horses and saddles, seeing her coming from afar, Shen Nanzhi thought that it was a young lady from whose house, where is there still a shadow of a subordinate in the past?
Jiang Wantang walked over lightly, for the first time in her life, she was more dazzling than Shen Nanzhi, she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart, and said softly: "The fourth girl called me, but what do you have to explain?" β
Shen Nanzhi smiled lightly: "When did Lord Lu accept you as a concubine?" β
"What nonsense are the four girls talking about!" Jiang Wantang's face turned red, and she shyly sorted the hair around her ears, "I think the fourth girl has been busy these days, and she is busy hallucinating?" β
"Since you don't, then you should be Lord Lu's maid," Shen Nanzhi said unhurriedly, while picking up the pen in front of him to continue to write and draw inadvertently, without even raising his head, "Dressed like this, how can you explain your identity when you turn back into the Yongyi Marquis Mansion in the capital?" β
Jiang Wantang's complexion changed, but she only thought that Shen Nanzhi was jealous of her change, so she settled down and said with a smile: "The four girls don't know anything!" The capital is not as good as our Suzhou, and there are many rules in Beijing! If I don't dress better, how can I be respected when I go to the Hou Mansion? There is also a concubine room in the son's room...... Maybe they will see that I am a bully and target me, and I do this so that I can be safe in the future! β
Shen Nanzhi smiled coldly: Good bully? You can be too modest.
She picked up her pen and ink, and said, "I came to you for this purpose." There are now three concubines in Lord Lu's room, and the Qiu Niang was arranged by Mrs. Houfu, and there must be a heart behind her back, and the two newcomers are given by the emperor himself...... You can't afford to mess with these people, so after entering the Hou Mansion, you must be careful and don't deliberately argue with the three of them. β
Jiang Wantang was slightly stunned, these words sounded bitter, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Shen Nanzhi continued: "I know your thoughtsβI noticed it early in the morning. Since you're trying to take this path, you'd better pay attention to it. In the back house, you have to go from maid to aunt, not only to make the son really like, but also to let a few little girls relax their vigilance against you, so that you have a chance to climb up - the most important thing is that you must not harm others! Let someone take the handle, not only you, but even our Shen family will be with you! β
Jiang Wantang snorted lightly, thinking that Shen Nanzhi was really good to herself, but she didn't expect it to be for the Shen family!
