Chapter 163: Shame on oneself
Shen Xi knew that he couldn't beat Lu Qingyi, so he didn't say anything more.
The temple fair was in the afternoon, and it was still raining lightly, but the believers in the temple still came and went, everyone was wearing cotton jackets and praying sincerely, although Shen Xi didn't believe in these things, but she still respected them very much.
As soon as she entered, someone specially took her and Lu Qingyi to a private room, only to see Concubine Chen still kneeling in front of the Buddha and chanting words, and holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.
After a long time, Concubine Chen was finished, and when she saw Lu Qingyi, she was slightly stunned, and then understood.
"Miss Shen, sit down." Concubine Chen no longer has the previous anger towards Shen Xi, including the previous thing she framed Shen Xi, she seems to have forgotten.
"I don't know if Concubine Chen called the people's daughter today, but what's the matter?" Shen Xi asked straight to the point.
Concubine Chen said with a smile while pouring tea, "Miss Shen is really a straightforward person. ”
"Everyone knows Du Ming, so there's no need to detour around the bend, right?" Shen Xi also smiled, she didn't have so much thought about going around with Concubine Chen, after all, the person sitting opposite had thought about killing her.
She wasn't generous enough to forgive casually.
"I called you here today to apologize to you, when I was in the palace, I was embarrassed everywhere, it was really wrong in this palace." Concubine Chen smiled gently, and her attitude did change from that day, but she didn't say a word about framing Shen Xi.
"There's no need for Concubine Chen to apologize to the people's daughters, everyone just has different positions and different ideas." Shen Xi was playing with the teacup in her hand, and she was very different from before, the more things she saw, the greater the changes would be.
"But today, I am afraid that your position and mine are the same." Concubine Chen didn't beat around the bush anymore, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she also looked at Lu Qingyi on the side, and she didn't shy away from Lu Qingyi's words.
"Oh? Where did Concubine Chen start with this? Shen Xi smiled lightly and asked knowingly.
"No one knows about me and the queen, and if you offend the He family, you also offend the queen, do you think the queen will let you go like this?" Concubine Chen's smile was evil, she looked at Shen Xi, but her voice was very soft.
The affairs of Shen Xi and Helan were known to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, so naturally they couldn't hide it from Concubine Chen.
"So Concubine Chen wants to partner with the people to deal with the queen?" Shen Xi then smiled self-deprecatingly, "In the affairs of this palace, Shen Xi is a people's daughter, so naturally he can't interfere." ”
"Besides, even if the matter of the queen mother is settled, what about your grievances with me? Is it a write-off? Shen Xi's eyes rose slightly, and he smiled charmingly.
"But Concubine Chen don't worry, the queen's side of the people will also do what they should do, we just do our own duties, if you move around frequently, I'm afraid that the queen will be suspicious, and it will be bad for you and me at that time." Shen Xi is a person who knows how to advance and retreat, her previous sentence is to tell Concubine Chen that she understands everything, and the latter sentence is to answer Concubine Chen's words.
"Miss Shen is really smart, no wonder Lu Gongzi will be dead set on you." Concubine Chen smiled tactfully again, and she didn't know who she was saying it to, or what it meant.
"Shen Xi can't talk about being smart, but he's not a stupid person either." Shen Xi replied calmly. Search
After negotiating with Concubine Chen, Shen Xi and Lu Qingyi left the private room, and the two of them also put on the pillar incense, and Lu Qingyi held an umbrella and left with Shen Xi.
When passing by the drunken spring building, it happened that the troublesome woman sat in front of the door and shouted, and most of the filthy words came out of her mouth.
Shen Xi felt that such a woman was the most pitiful, she gave wholeheartedly, but in the end, her husband came to spend all day drinking, but who is to blame for such a thing?
It's no surprise that this kind of thing is fixed, I saw her coming out of it, giving birth to a lotus step by step, someone held an umbrella for her, she looked decent and smiled decently.
I saw that she first took the initiative to stretch out her hand to the woman, "Madam, you can say anything about it, it's raining again, and you are really undignified to sit on the ground like this, after all, with so many pairs of eyes watching, you still have to save face." ”
As soon as Ding Ling came out, he only made people ashamed of themselves, and Shen Xi also echoed on the side, "Madam, it really hurts your image if you sit here like this, don't spread it to your family when the time comes, it will be really bad." ”
The woman looked at Ding Ling, and then looked back at Shen Xi, as if she didn't expect that the proprietress of the Drunken Spring Building would be so young and magnanimous, she thought that they would come hard, so she was a scoundrel from the beginning.
"Madam, I probably guessed the reason why you came to me today, but you can't just blame us for this kind of thing, you have to find the reason from yourself first, and then take care of your husband. After all, we can't force your husband to come here, right? Ding Ling's voice was really gentle, and anyone who heard it was embarrassed to lose his temper.
"Find the reason from yourself? Isn't it good that I'm so bent on this family that I've made myself look like a yellow-faced woman, and I haven't bought new clothes to wear in a long time? And let him come outside to eat weeds? The woman was angry when she heard Ding Ling's words, but she didn't yell anymore.
"So wouldn't it be good for you to spend more time and energy on yourself? Why think only of him and not of yourself? I advise you this because I am also a woman, and I can understand your feelings, but I have seen many men, and few are willing to face a bitter gourd face every day. ”
Ding Ling was still persuading in a good voice, but Shen Xi had another opinion of her because of Ding Ling's words.
After many women get married, they only live for others, they only worry about others, they never think about themselves, it is rare that Ding Ling will have such a deep understanding of righteousness, if it is not for the fact in front of him, Shen Xi is afraid that he will feel that Ding Ling is noble and does not come from this dusty place.
"But I ......," the woman didn't know what to say for a moment.
"What is the difference between the way you look now and when you were married? Why do you have to give up managing yourself just because you have become a married person? Love before you love. ”
As she spoke, the woman looked at what she was wearing, touched her face again, and sighed softly, "It's just that I feel sorry for him and his hard work, so I think that I can save and share a little bit for him." ”
Ding Ling no longer had a smile on her face, and her expression was a little serious, "What about the result?" He used the money you saved to spend all day drinking and hugging this kind of place, did he think about it for you? ”
"This ......," the woman bowed her head in shame, and her voice was soft, "never before." ”
"So madam, you should spend it yourself, and the money you saved for him is just a different way for him to spend it on others." Ding Ling's eyes were full of pity when he looked at the woman.
Under Ding Ling's strong persuasion, the woman left with red eyes.
