Chapter 181: Temporary residence in the capital
I didn't recognize it, but I had to force a sentence first, but I didn't expect Bao Jingshu to leave for so long, and all the rules and politeness that should have been forgotten.
"My sister is really a noble person, I think when my sister came out of the cabinet, my father also brought me to give my sister a meeting gift." The woman was unhappy in her heart, but the feeling of being forgotten was better than the anger of being robbed by Bao Jingshu.
Although the words came to this, they were still vague, and Bao Jingshu had always roughly guessed who this person was in his heart, but he still pretended not to know, but shook his head slightly with a smile.
"Sister doesn't remember, let me explain it to my sister," although the visitor had already scolded him in his heart, the tree changed, but he still pretended to be amiable.
"My father, Wang Yang, turned out to be an official under Bao Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and he was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites."
She said it very carefully, and she wanted Bao Jingshu to know that after her family was degraded, the people who were once under Bao Shangshu could still eat the imperial court, what kind of mood Bao Jingshu should have, it really made the woman feel happy when she thought about it.
"It turned out to be Liupinlangzhong, disrespectful and disrespectful." Bao Jingshu's face was extremely kind, but he had already sneered in his heart. It's just a young lady from a six-rank petty official family, but she dares to shout in front of a first-grade official, and she really doesn't know what to do.
"Then dare to ask who Miss Wang is marrying now, do you need me to give a gift and talk about your heart?"
Originally, it was a casual greeting, but the young lady seemed to mention something difficult to say about her, opened her mouth slightly, and was embarrassed to say it for a long time.
"It's not a big official, it's also a person from the Ministry of Rites, and it's Wu Yuanwailang."
Miss Wang made it clear that she didn't want to tell it, but she obviously saw that the maids beside Bao Jingshu seemed to remember her details, and seeing that they were going to tell Bao Jingshu in front of her, she had to grit her teeth and explain it herself.
A young lady of a sixth-grade official married a petty official from the seventh-grade rank, and she is still a bad old man who is over half a hundred years old, so it is no wonder that Miss Wang is so psychologically unbalanced.
Bao Jingshu knew it in his heart, and then there was a sneer, Miss Wang was uncomfortable herself, so she wanted to see the distress of others, and she didn't know what it had become like in her heart.
"Since she is married at a low level, presumably Miss Wang will be able to raise her eyebrows and take charge of the whole family in the Wu family."
Having said that, although it is not unreasonable, people can guess what disgusting things his Wang family has done to let his daughter marry such a bad match.
and was seized of her own handle, no matter how proud Miss Wang is, she can't show it in the Wu family.
Miss Wang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, complaining in her heart that Bao Jingshu was pouring salt on her wounds, but she didn't dare to admit it generously, so as not to lose face.
She had to glared at Bao Jingshu a few times, and then planned to leave without saying goodbye, but Bao Jingshu stopped Miss Wang in time.
"Miss Wang, wait a minute." Bao Jingshu stood in place, hurriedly called, and asked Han Yu to quickly take out a pair of pearl earrings from his room.
When the box was opened, even if Miss Wang was standing so far away, she could clearly see how dazzling the first two pairs of pearls were.
"It's the first time I've learned that Miss Wang is out of the cabinet, and I want to come to Miss Wang this time to complain that I didn't send the gift in time, and now I hereby make up for it."
Miss Wang originally wanted to be very stubborn and not accept it, after all, Bao Jingshu's words seemed to say that she was like a flower called Huazi who came to ask for food, waiting for someone to reward her. But the attraction of pearls is too great, and he lives in the Wu family, and he needs money, so how can he hate it and refuse.
After a few hesitations, Miss Wang's eyes kept on the pair of pearls, and finally sighed sadly in her heart, and beckoned the maid next to her to take the things.
"In that case, thank you Sister Jingshu."
"You're welcome, I often come to sit when I have time, it's not early now, it's almost noon, I won't leave Miss Wang to eat." Unlike Miss Wang's tangled expression, Jing Shu's face looked natural and confident.
Sure enough, the little family is so angry that he can't get on the table, so he wants to deal with it with such a little effort, but he really can't do it.
After Jingshu saw Miss Wang leave, her face suddenly fell, and a sneer involuntarily appeared.
At this time, Jiang Liuyu inquired about Bao Jingshu's residence, and as soon as she got off the carriage from the alley, she passed by Miss Wang, who was not worried. Jiang Liuyu was puzzled, turned around and entered Bao Jingshu's small courtyard, and saw that she looked like she had returned victoriously, and couldn't help but be curious.
"What's wrong? That person just now looked like he was looking for trouble, did you suffer? ”
"Thank you Princess for your concern, but in this capital, there are few people who can make me suffer." Bao Jingshu saw that Jiang Liuyu was coming, changed his attitude again, walked to her side very enthusiastically, and invited her to sit on the stone bench under the tree in the courtyard together.
"Then you are really amazing, I think I suffered a lot of dark losses when I first entered Beijing." Jiang Liuyu saw that he was as plain as water, and combined with his original miserable situation, he felt even more pitiful.
Bao Jingshu looked at Jiang Liuyu's lonely expression, the cold rain and the jade pot next to her happened to brew new tea from the house, and she personally brought a cup to Jiang Liuyu.
"The princess seems to know that you must be a straightforward, innocent and simple person, and it is normal to not be used to the intrigue of this woman in the capital. My mother was willing to help the princess, and it is probably because of this valuable quality of the princess. ”
"Sometimes it's too stupid and easy to be deceived, but I think I'm a teacher now, and I'm almost right now." Jiang Liuyu laughed twice, holding the tea sent by Bao Jingshu in a pair of cold hands, and gradually returned to a trace of temperature by the tea.
"Miss, princess, please have a snack." Jiang Liuyu was talking and laughing with Bao Jingshu, and when she heard the voice of the person who spoke, she was a little familiar, and when she looked up, she saw Yan Si's face a little pale, standing in front of her, and she was suddenly startled.
When she first came to the Bao family to attend Qin Zitong's funeral, Jiang Liuyu saw Yansi kneeling in front of the mourning hall, crying like a tearful person. Then after waiting for Master Bao to leave the capital for a few days, she and Su Jingye never saw Yansi's shadow again.
Later, I heard Xiaoyun say that I saw Yansi staggering towards the water's edge full of weeds, but she looked a little similar to her figure, and she didn't really look at it.
Su Jingye was also by her side at that time, and sighed after hearing it, saying that Yansi estimated that it was because her master had died, and she thought that she had guarded Mrs. Bao's Sanqi, so she planned to bury Mrs. Bao, and she was really a loyal servant.
Although Jiang Liuyu didn't want Yansi to be so extreme, she really couldn't find anyone, so she had to give up.
But just today, I saw Yansi still standing in front of her unharmed, but her face looked like a ghost, which was really scary, and even Xiaoyun next to her was a little unable to come back to her senses.
"Yansi, are you back?" Jiang Liuyu pursed her dry mouth and looked up at her with some fear.
After Yansi put down the things in her hand, she bowed deeply to Jiang Liuyu again, "Don't be afraid, princess, I'm not dead, it was Miss who asked someone to find me back." ”
"Although my wife still had a difficult life in the end, the slave has always been grateful to the princess for her care and kindness to my wife. Now I have to bother the princess to take care of the young lady, and the slave maid's gratitude is really indescribable, and I only hope to be a cow and a horse for the princess in the next life. ”
As she spoke, Yan Si was about to bend over and kneel, Jiang Liuyu panicked and hurriedly helped the person.
"Don't kneel to me, I don't like other people kneeling." Jiang Liuyu sighed in her heart, a loyal person like Yansi is really hard to find in the world.
Xiaoyun was beside her to help Yansi up, "My princess is not polite to you when she says this, she does have such a habit." If you are grateful, just prepare two snacks that the princess likes when she comes. ”
Hearing this, Bao Jingshu and Yansi were stunned, but they didn't expect that a little maid beside Jiang Liuyu could make a decision for her. Looking at her again, Jiang Liuyu was still smiling, and nodded approvingly.
But to prepare things, you still need the consent of the owner, Yansi looked at Bao Jingshu, and Bao Jingshu only smiled lightly.
"The princess is really generous, at least I have lived for decades, and I have never seen the owner of a family so comfortable with his subordinates as the princess."
"It's not easy for this person to be born, it's just that they understand each other." Jiang Liuyu laughed twice, and didn't want to be too maverick, so he thought about changing the topic.
Just looked around the things in this courtyard, looking fine but very ordinary, there was no place to speak, and he looked down a little helplessly and saw the snacks on the table, Jiang Liuyu suddenly blinked.
"This dim sum seems to be a new product that has only come out recently, and people who only want to eat it every day have to wait in a long line, I still just heard about it, and I haven't had a chance to taste it, but I didn't expect Miss Bao to know a lot about the world in the capital, so she bought it back so quickly."
"If the princess likes it, please try it." When I was a child, the children liked sweets, but when Bao Jingshu grew up and married to Yancheng, the taste had already become very light, and she was still not used to eating such sweet and greasy things.
"Then you're welcome." Jiang Liuyu smiled twice with some embarrassment, and Xiaoyun felt a little embarrassed for her.
After taking a bite, this dim sum melted in his mouth, and Jiang Liuyu's eyes suddenly lit up, "This thing is worthy of being a pastry made by the first dim sum workshop in the capital, and it tastes good." ”
"If you want me to say, your father-in-law also spoils you too much, he just left yesterday, and today he is still looking to ask someone to buy you this good thing, except for my prince, oh, and Lord Bao, uh, and Lord Shi, I really haven't seen such a considerate husband like him."
