Chapter 197: Mahjong Game
The voice of the little maid became farther and farther away, and Wu Xinping stood behind the maple tree, almost crushing a mouthful of silver teeth.
She put away the hypocritical smile on her face and sneered: "Sure enough, I guessed correctly, the second master is really unusual to the young grandmother of the Sheng family, and he can even do things like preparing gifts, not to mention anything else." ”
The personal maid said: "Miss, then what should we do now, the Sheng family's high-walled compound, the young grandmother's hands and eyes are all over the sky, let's go." ”
"Can you make a difference!" Wu Xinping coldly reprimanded, "Can't you see that the old lady of the Sheng family will not allow Shen Yu to remarry if she is here, let alone marry Sheng Yanqing." They don't have to go to the table in private. ”
The maid lowered her head and stopped talking, Wu Xinping glanced in the direction of Fenglin Garden, her hand pressed on the rough trunk of the maple tree, and held it a little harder.
Hearing these words coming out of the mouth, Wu Xinping's heart was cold, and the master and servant were walking aimlessly in the back garden, and they met Xu Xinyue walking towards her with a maid.
At the birthday banquet, the two talked, and Wu Xinping knew that this was the third young grandmother in the second room of the Sheng family.
Xu Xinyue smiled kindly and said, "Sister Xinping, it's unfortunate that you came today, the second master went to the teahouse, and he hasn't come back yet." If you want to find him, you can't come at this hour. ”
Regarding the two rooms of the Sheng family, there are some rumors outside, especially the second lady who often showed up before, suddenly disappeared, and everything was said.
Wu Xinping didn't want to get involved in the matter between the two rooms of the Sheng family, she deliberately avoided Xu Xinyue, but when she mentioned Sheng Yanqing, she couldn't help asking: "Does the third young grandmother know when the second young master is at home?" When will you be back today? ”
Xu Xinyue sneered in her heart, but her face was kind, and she took Wu Xinping's hand affectionately, "Sister Xinping, I know that you are the granddaughter-in-law of the old lady, and I don't guarantee that we will be concubines in the future." Let's go, I'll take you around this back garden, and let's talk slowly if you have anything to say. ”
"It's all blind guessing, who knows the old lady's mind?" Wu Xinping blushed, hesitated for a while, and followed Xu Xinyue away.
After the two chatted for nearly half an hour, when they sent Wu Xinping away, Wu Xinping had already said to Xu Xinyue that Sister Xinyue and Sister Xinyue had left.
sent people out of the Hanging Flower Gate, but Xu Xinyue accepted her expression, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes.
After using Shen Yu's medicine, within a few days, the old lady of the Sheng family got better.
Shen Yu took Sheng Jinxu over to accompany her for breakfast, and the old lady said with a smile: "The problem of rhinitis comes and goes quickly." The doctor also said that he was worried that my body and bones would not be able to stand it, so he always used some mild tonics. I have eaten a lot of bird's nest and ginseng, but it has not always worked. The home remedies you found, Cang'er Zi, Xinyi flowers, are everywhere, and worthless gadgets actually cured my rhinitis. ”
Shen Yu said: "It's also a matter of luck, when I first prepared this medicine, my daughter-in-law was also very nervous, for fear that something would go wrong." ”
Sheng Jinxu sat beside the old lady, he carefully took the soup spoon, scooped a spoonful of millet porridge for the old lady, and sent it to her mouth tremblingly.
"Grandma drinks soup."
The old lady hurried over, opened her mouth and drank the porridge, she touched Sheng Jinxu's head, "Xu'er is so good." ”
Shen Yu gave Tao's mother a look, "Xu'er is doing bad things with good intentions, and she spilled her grandmother's body, so it's better not to scoop this spoonful of soup." ”
Mother Tao brought a handkerchief over, and Xu'er raised her face unconvinced, "Is Grandma full?" ”
"It's full." The old lady chuckled.
Shen Yu said: "After the New Year, Xu'er has grown up by a year, but it has become more and more unruly, there is no place in the Sheng family compound that he can't go, and there is no trouble that he doesn't dare to break into." Laifu and Laibao followed Sheng Jinxu's ass all day long, for fear that this little ancestor would run away. ”
The old lady patted Sheng Jinxu's ass lovingly, "Don't talk about him like that, he came to me a few days ago to endorse him, and he looks good, not much worse than when Yan Ming was a child." ”
Shen Yu said with a smile: "It's all the second master's supervision, and in the Sheng family, the second master can still bluff him." ”
The breakfast at Heshoutang is relatively light, with millet porridge, a few pasta snacks, and a few delicate side dishes, which are typical of the southern dining table with sweetness as the main taste.
In Fuyunju, Shen Yu will prepare according to the customs of the north, mainly salty. In order to supplement Sheng Jinxu's nutrition, she would also prepare a glass of milk and stare at Sheng Jinxu to drink it.
Sheng Jinxu ran around for this meal, didn't eat much, but got a whole body, and there were rice grains on his hands and clothes.
There was no way, Shen Yu took him back to change his clothes, and then sent him to the school.
The meal was happy, and the appearance of the grandparents and grandchildren before the birthday banquet and Lele were restored. No one mentions birthday gifts anymore.
As soon as the breakfast table was removed, Wu Xinping came over.
In the past few days, Wu Xinping has come to talk to the old lady every day, and the people in Heshoutang have become accustomed to it, so they directly invited people to the house.
The old lady has the heart to marry the Wu family, and she couldn't be happier to have someone to talk to her to relieve her boredom.
After sitting idle and bored for a hundred days, Wu Xinping proposed: "Old lady, why don't we call the eldest and young grandmothers and play mahjong together." ”
The old lady can play mahjong, but she usually can't get people together, and she is too lazy to show up.
After getting better, the old lady was also very interested, and immediately asked someone to call Shen Yu back, plus Tao's mother, and the four of them got together at a table.
Shen Yu and Wu Xinping's card skills are okay, but Tao's mother can't let go. The people sitting at the table are all masters, and she is a waiter, and she can't afford to win or lose.
Shen Yu said: "When I saw the third brother and sister a few days ago, she also said that it was boring to stay alone, so it was better to call the third brother and sister too." ”
Mother Tao was worried that she couldn't find an excuse to get out, so she immediately said, "The old slave will go and ask for it." ”
When waiting for Xu Xinyue, Shen Yu asked Hexiang to make tea, and the three of them sat at the tea table to drink tea.
After drinking millet porridge in the morning, and drinking tea at this time, the old lady was in a hurry, so she let her subordinates help her out.
Wu Xinping and Shen Yu sat facing each other, and the two looked at each other quietly, each with their own thoughts.
"The gift for the old lady was dropped by you, right?" Shen Yu took the lead in opening the conversation, "Knowing that the old lady has rhinitis, and she also specially sends perfume with a strong smell, you are indeed very smart." ”
"What gift?" Wu Xinping blinked her eyes and looked innocent, "What is my sister-in-law saying, I'm confused." ”
Shen Yu chuckled, "Don't pretend anymore, I've already checked the matter." You were also present when the gift was sent to the second young master, and then the things were placed in the west wing of the Heshou Hall, and someone saw you sneaking in. And the smell of the perfume, if I'm not mistaken, the first time you came, you used that perfume. ”
Wu Xinping was originally tidying up the mahjong on the table, she paused for a moment, then raised her head, and said with a sneer: "Each other, you are a widow who killed her husband, you can also cover the sky with one hand in this big mansion, and use intrigue to confuse the second young master, you are also very powerful." ”
Shen Yu didn't want to talk about her and Sheng Yanqing with an irrelevant person, she lowered her eyelids and looked at the tea sticks that rose and fell in the cup.
Wu Xinping was annoyed by Shen Yu's careless appearance, she felt that she was being slighted, and said coldly: "Don't think that you are doing everything very secretly, there have been rumors about you outside for a long time." The second master will only be confused for a while, and he will one day see your wolf ambitions clearly. ”
Wu Xinping wanted to say more, but the old lady opened the curtain and walked in, and she hurriedly stopped.
After a while, Xu Xinyue also arrived, and several people put out mahjong again.
After playing a handful and shuffling the cards, Hexiang quietly walked in and pasted it in Shen Yu's ear, saying something mysteriously.
Wu Xinping sat next to Shen Yu, she pricked up her ears and listened hard, and vaguely heard the words "second master" and "past". Hexiang was very careful, she was talking to Shen Yu in a breathy voice, if it wasn't for Wu Xinping, it would be impossible to hear it.
The old lady and Xu Xinyue were drinking tea, and the two were far away and didn't know what was going on.
After Hexiang finished speaking, Shen Yu stood up and said with a smile: "Grandmother, I drank too much tea, I will miss it." ”
The old lady nodded, "Go and go back quickly, if I don't win the money back today, no one is allowed to leave." ”
Wu Xinping's eyes kept following Shen Yu, and she saw Shen Yu explaining a few words to Hexiang at the door, and then walked quickly outside.
But the direction she walked was not to go to the toilet.
Wu Xinping was a little restless, the second master called her out at this time, and in front of the old lady of the Sheng family, what would happen?
