Chapter 21: Old and Thick-skinned
The ending of the matter was somewhat unexpected, after Song Shi'an came back from the next dynasty, he did not go home, but went straight to the largest flower building in the capital. I was busy until dinner, and then I brought four Oiran from the flower building, along with four gynecological saints in the capital, and sent them to the Shen Mansion in a carriage, saying that it was a prepared apology.
When he stood at the door of the Shen Mansion, his speech was also concise and to the point, basically saying, my daughter accidentally killed a fetus that your son had worked so hard to make, and now I offer four mothers as compensation.
These four Oirans are all newly selected women, healthy, young and beautiful, and definitely worthy of that charm. As for their fertility, there are four famous doctors who testify that there is absolutely no problem.
The final question is, whether your son can do it or not, and how many of them can be done, it is not my Song Shi'an's problem, but your son's ability in some way.
This incident refreshed Song Zichu's understanding of this cheap daddy's undisciplined and bottom-line, and when she heard about it after dinner, the corners of her mouth twitched weakly, and she said in her heart, sure enough, the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds! This kind of compensation plan, if you kill someone's child, you will compensate someone else's cousin, Song Shi'an, you are really embarrassed!
And the three of them, Song Zilan and Song Ziqing, were also raised from the prison of the Criminal Department that night, as Zichu expected.
I could hear the crying from the Chunhua Courtyard from a distance, obviously the mother and daughter were dying together, Zichu hooked the corners of his mouth, and ordered: "Turn off the lights, let's go to bed early tonight!" ”
Here Zichu and Mulberry Cinnamon slept sweetly, but over there, Zhu Xiaoyan was not so comfortable.
Then after Song Shi'an, who was full of wine and flushed, came back, Zhu was just about to say a soft word about a beauty ecstasy, when he saw her husband take out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve. When she opened it, she almost fainted three times without seeing a black eye.
"Sir! Why did ....... spend so much money on it all at once? ”
Song Shi'an snorted with wine, and said with a splash of saliva at her: "Isn't it a good daughter you taught?" One by one, they're all stupid like pigs! asked you to ruin the big girl's marriage, but you poked out such a big basket for Lao Tzu. I'm telling you, these IOUs are all real money to save your three daughters. The money for the redemption of the four Oiran, as well as the expenses of the prison of the Punishment Department, 40,000 taels, you can quickly make up for it within this month! ”
Zhu Xiaoyan held these thin pieces of paper, and the joy of her daughter had long been thrown out of the clouds.
She stood there for a long time, until Song Shi'an was already lying on the bed and snoring, then she sat down on the stool heavily, and muttered to herself: "It seems that I really have no other choice." ”
Early the next morning, after Zichu freshened up and dressed up, he walked out of Tsinghua Academy wearing the red clothes he bought at Qiansifang that day.
When she came to Chunhua Courtyard, looking at Zhu Xiaoyan's forced appearance with red and swollen eyes, she was secretly happy in her heart, but she deliberately made a surprised look, and said: "Oh, Mrs., the three younger sisters must have come back too late last night, look, your eyes are so green, go to the palace like this, but it is easy for people to think that you are disrespectful to the queen!" ”
Zhu Xiaoyan was also worried about how to suppress his sleep-deprived panda eyes, and when he heard this, he hurriedly asked someone to come over with a bronze mirror, looked left and right, and then sighed: "Yes, what can I do about this?" ”
"Madam, don't worry, I'll mix a powder for you, so that you can cover this eye circle immediately."
"Really?" Zhu Xiaoyan rarely saw Zichu's courtesy, so he was naturally a little skeptical. But after seeing Zichu skillfully using her original fat powder, she pressed it little by little with the puff, huh? I really can't see the dark circles under my eyes at all!
At that moment, she was so happy to take Zichu's hand, and said a lot of good things happily and approvingly. Zichu also made a docile and lovely appearance, but secretly snapped his fingers in his heart, and said: Hmph, this is the base makeup, if there is no setting powder, on this hot day, you will look good in a while!
As she expected, Zhu Xiaoyan still brought the rest of her three daughters this time. I don't know if I'm afraid of bringing you into the palace to attract more questions or something else, in short, she is very knowledgeable to take Zichu's hand, make a loving appearance to her, and say: "I rarely took you into the palace before, but this time, it's rare for everyone to go together." Your three younger sisters are always ignorant, and you will have to take care of them more in the future. ”
Zichu looked at Zhu Xiaoyan's eyes, and responded slowly and obediently: "Of course, my own sisters, how can I take care of it more?" ”
Zhu Xiaoyan listened to a good sentence, and made her say a very complicated meaning, so she was stunned for a while, and after seeing Song Zilan and Song Ziqing enter the house, she squeezed out a smile and said, "Okay, everyone is here, let's get ready to go!" ”
If you want to talk about the palace compound, Song Zichu, who is a star, has not come to these places to play before. But in front of her, there is a harem of emperors and queens, and it is the first time she has seen it.
As a distinguished guest invited by the queen, naturally as soon as he entered the palace, he was led directly to Fengyi Palace to meet the queen. Looking at a large number of people kneeling in the dark in a large hall, Zichu lowered his face and secretly stuck out his tongue.
The place where she knelt was too far away from the one sitting above, so she only saw the jewels at that end from afar, but looking at the queen from a distance was still good, at least stronger than the posture of ordinary second-rate and third-rate female stars.
Fortunately, the time to salute and worship was for a while, and after the salute, there were female officials standing on the queen's left and right, each saying a few words, to the effect that the queen was tired of serving the sick emperor recently, and the emperor's complexion was getting better day by day, and he took pity on the queen to take care of his hard work, so he specially ordered to summon the female dependents in Beijing to accompany the queen to enjoy the flowers and have fun.
After listening to such high-sounding words, Zichu naturally didn't really think that the family in this palace compound was harmonious. On the contrary, after her uncle knew that she was going to enter the palace, he repeatedly told her that the crown prince Jun Yucheng had the intention of usurping the throne, and now it is known to passers-by, so that she began to wonder what kind of tricks are hidden behind this flower-viewing banquet.
After meeting the queen for a while, the ladies sat together in groups to drink tea and enjoy the flowers, and the girls walked around at will.
If you want to say that this girl who entered the palace together, there are as many as twenty or thirty at a glance. It's just that Song Zichu's eyes are dark, except for the three sisters she hates, she doesn't know any of them. Or ....... can't name anyone you know.
So, when she was stopped by a girl in a light green shirt with a smile, she just instinctively asked, "Who are you?" ”
"Haha! You see, after she fell overboard, she really forgot about us people. ”
"That's right, but, even if she didn't fall into the water before, her eyes were above the top, and she didn't necessarily put us in the bottom of her eyes."
Listening to this cynical words, Song Zichu came back to his senses. Then he immediately replied: "How do you say this, if I don't look at you in my eyes, do I still want to trample you under my feet?" Actually, I think you should all be trampled on, but your eyes are on the top of your heads, and if I go down this foot, won't you become blind? ”
"You! Hmph, Song Zichu, don't be complacent! Don't think we don't know, aren't you just relying on yourself to have such a rich dowry, that's why you're so arrogant? Do you dare to say that if you don't have these dowries, will Sheng Fu marry you, the eldest daughter of a widow? ”
Regarding the statement of this widowed eldest daughter, Zichu knows a little. She has acted in many costume dramas, and knows that there are five no-marriages in feudal society: don't take the son of the rebel family, don't take the son of the chaotic family, don't take the punishment of the world, don't take the evil disease in the world, and don't take the widow and eldest daughter.
But why is it good to Tisheng Mansion again? Why did you get involved with this again? Also, isn't the person hiding behind these stupid girls who is looking at him Song Zilan? Dare to love these are her brainless fans, two best friends?
The corners of Zichu's mouth twitched when he thought of this, and the next words he said were a little murderous.
"Hehe, I'm a big dowry, isn't it? If so, you can say it directly! But it's useless to say it directly, this kind of thing, everyone understands, the strength of real money. Sister, I have money, even if I wear street goods on my body, it is also high-end and atmospheric, you don't have that capital, even if you pile ten catties of gold on your head, people will think that your gold must be fake.......".
"Song Zichu, you - you are simply ashamed, you are shameless!"
"What? Am I shameless? You should open your dog's eyes and see clearly, sister, my teeth are very good! It's like you, as soon as you speak, it leaks! ”
As he spoke, Song Zichu also pulled the girl over, revealing her neat teeth, shaking her dizzy.
The subtle disharmony caused by several girls gathered together had already fallen under the eyes of the old lady who was in charge of maintaining the order of law and order in the garden.
"Okay, let's stop talking about her for now."
"That's it, Sister Wanyin, the dress you are wearing today is really beautiful, isn't it a new look from the master of Qiansifang?"
Seeing that the green-clothed girl who took the initiative to embarrass herself praised a companion beside her, Zichu immediately raised her eyebrows and said, "This shirt is really good, where did you buy it?" I'm also going to buy one for my grandmother to wear. Hehe, it's really suitable for her age. ”
"You ——!"
Seeing that the other party's face turned purple, Zichu made a repentant look and sighed: "Alas! I'm sorry I'm telling the truth again, how can it always be so sad to be honest! ”
