Seeing that it was already seven o'clock, the sky was not yet bright, revealing a light blue, and the end of the sky was covered with the color of late autumn twilight, faintly the sun was rising, and it was rendered layer by layer.
In addition to a small building in the courtyard of the main house, there are side halls and guest rooms, all of which are one floor. The interior decoration is old-fashioned, but it is renovated every year, retaining the unique posture of the ancient house, and the furniture should be all blood beech wood, which sets off the vicissitudes of ancient meaning.
Su Huiyi got up early in the morning because he was busy with military affairs, and a group of attendants waited outside early, and after he washed up, he sat on the sofa and read the newspaper.
Lin Ning knocked on the door and walked in, stood respectfully in the hall, and said, "Seventh Shao, the handsome man has just sent someone over, saying that since Miss Shen has already entered the door, it is not appropriate to organize a wedding, just do a simple ceremony in the courtyard." ”
Su Huiyi put the newspaper aside casually, just revealing a small portrait of Shen Qiangrose kneeling at the door of the Overseer's Mansion, he glanced at it, and said lightly: "Leave this matter to the sixth sister, and send a few more attendants to her, so that she can watch and buy some things for girls." ”
He got up and walked towards the bedroom, and heard Lin Ning say, "Qishao, Miss Min called early in the morning and said that she had something to tell you, so that you can come over when you are free." ”
Su Huiyi frowned and said, "Where do I have time to deal with her?" "I have pushed the door in as I spoke," said Miss Min, who had learned something and wanted to tell Qishao. ”
Lin Ning paused and continued: "Although she is a dispensable chess piece, she has been in close contact with the second son recently, and the lace news of the two of them was reported a few days ago, and the second son treats her well. ”
Su Huiyi injured his left hand, and it was not convenient to change his clothes, so when he heard this, he quickly fastened the buttons, and said lightly: "You send someone to call her, and say that I will come later." ”
He put on his military uniform, put on his military hat neatly, and strode out. Seeing that the sky was bright, and a few maids were coming in and out of the small building, he glanced at it, and was surrounded out of the courtyard.
After Shen Qiangrose had breakfast, because it was inconvenient to go out, she went to the study to pick out two books and read them quietly.
Mother Liu is a self-acquaintance, and it is only a short night's effort, but she has become one with these maids, and she is chattering, while boiling medicine for Shen Qiangrose, she has inquired a lot about things in the house.
took advantage of the opportunity to go upstairs to deliver medicine to Shen Qiangrose, and chattered a lot, mostly because of the temperament and temperament of some people in the house, and in addition to living habits, all of which were inconsequential little things, but Shen Qiangrose listened very seriously.
In the past, Su's mother also talked a lot to her, but now that she has entered the Su family, she must pay attention to everything. is such an identity, it is necessary to be cautious and learn the way to survive in the cracks.
It wasn't until noon that the maid came up to report that Miss Six was coming. Shen Qiangrose knew that this sixth lady Su Fangfei was the most exquisite, although she was not married, she knew how to use methods, and with Su Qibai's identity, she was very popular in the celebrity circle in Jinling.
He also opened several foreign banks and securities companies one after another, making a lot of money, and achieved success at a young age, and he is one of the few figures in the financial industry.
Shen Qiangrose had a good relationship with her in the past, on the one hand, because of the "kinship" in the old school, Su Fangfei took care of her a lot, but the two have not seen each other much in recent years. Now that she has entered the door of the Su family, no matter how embarrassing her identity is, she still has to see people after all.
She thought about it, the sixth sister had to stammer, so she changed into a plain cheongsam, and then went downstairs, and saw Su Fangfei leaning gracefully next to the sofa, and when she saw her, she laughed and said, "Okay, you little rose, you secretly married my seventh brother quietly, you have the ability." ”
Shen Qiangrose knew a little about her temper, and knew that she didn't mean anything else in her words, so she smiled and said, "In the past, I saw you shouting 'little aunt', but now I have risen in rank, it's time to call the sixth sister, I don't know if it's my high climb?" ”
Su Fangfei shook the handkerchief in her hand and said, "You little thing who promotes narrowness, you look at taking advantage of this verbal advantage, and now you are married to the seventh child of our family, and there are many benefits!" ”
Shen Qiangrose helped her sit on the sofa, and couldn't help but take a closer look, and saw that she was wearing a moon-white brocade cheongsam with a sweetheart collar at the neckline, revealing a white neck. There is a jewel necklace inside, and the blue gemstone pendant alone is the size of a quail egg, like a drop of water, shining on the neck, which is extremely noble and beautiful.
Su Fangfei saw her looking at the necklace she was carrying, so she smiled, took off the necklace, put it in her hand boldly, and said: "Sixth sister is also careless, the first time I came to see you today, I always have to take some meeting gifts, originally I was still preparing, you can take this first, just don't dislike it that I brought it." ”
Shen Qiangrose is not a master who likes to wear gold and silver, but when she saw that the necklace was beautiful, she took a second look. However, Su Fangfei actually gave it to her, which made it difficult for her to refuse, so she had to accept it and said, "Then I will thank the sixth sister." ”
Su Fangfei's eyes turned faintly, and said, "Thank you, since you are married, I will naturally treat you as my sister." Today, Lao Qi specially instructed me to buy some things, which are all available to girls, and they will be sent to me later. ”
Shen Qiangrose listened to these scenes, but it was not easy to pick up the stubble, so she nodded. Su Fangfei saw that she was just sitting quietly beside her, with a pair of clear and shallow eyes, she was not the kind of frivolous woman who could be bought by money. She has always had a high heart, and now that her family is ruined, it is really rare to be able to endure this step.
Su Fangfei thought like this, feeling sad for no reason, and couldn't help but whisper: "Rose, you and I grew up together, now that you marry into the Su family, you can't even have a decent wedding, pity you a girl, if you have any difficulties in the future, just go to me, I will try my best to help you." ”
Shen Qiangrose could tell that Su Fangfei's words were sincere, so she looked at her gratefully and said, "Thank you, Sixth Sister." ”
Su Fangfei couldn't help laughing, grabbed Shen Qiangrose's hand, and instructed, "What else are you polite to me?" Although you said that you were just an aunt's wife when you married, do you see that from ancient times to the present, aren't all beautiful little wives? Don't say anything else, let's just say that the sixth aunt in front of us is arrogant and domineering, but don't those high-ranking officials and magnates still stutter well? These tricks, you have nothing to learn! Fang Yuyan from the province entered the door, and you were bullied by her for nothing. ”
Shen Qiangrose also laughed when she heard this, and said: "It's already a blessing that I can marry into the Su family, and I don't dare to think about anything else." ”
Su Fangfei angrily touched her forehead, revealing a look of hatred for iron but not steel, and said, "Silly girl, you are blessed to marry our seventh child!" What is all this wealth in front of you? I'm afraid that in the future, the identity of the 'first lady' of the Southland is all yours! ”
Shen Qiangrose was afraid that the thoughts in her heart would be revealed on her face, so she only lowered her head, made an embarrassed look, and said, "Sixth sister, this is making fun of me." ”
Su Fangfei smiled very calmly, just as she was a little girl who didn't know how to weigh the pros and cons, she said: "Those high-ranking officials and daughters of the Soviet Army are all human spirits, I'm afraid that you have just entered the door, and they will weigh your weight in Lao Qi's heart one by one." ”
As she spoke, Yu Yu turned her eyes to look at Shen Qiangrose, and continued, "Do you think they are so stupid that they only look at their identities? Now that you are your aunt's wife, they naturally have to rush to deliver charcoal in the snow, and if you succeed, they will follow you to the top. If you don't do anything, they will lose no more than a little money. So you have to learn to win hearts and minds, you know? ”
Shen Qiangrose raised her eyes and glanced at her, then nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Su Fangfei was not shocked to see her so pampered, and she liked her two more points in her heart. She didn't have anything to do today, so she pulled Shen Qiangrose and said a lot of things, but fortunately, the maid served refreshments, and the two of them ate while talking, so they didn't feel hungry.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Su Fangfei said goodbye and left. Shen Qiangrose was very tired, so she said that she wanted to go upstairs to rest for a while, and the messenger at the door came to report again, saying that the second aunt was coming.
Shen Qiangrose had to go downstairs again, thinking that now that she has entered the Su family, it is so lively, but it is like a person who sings a big opera, Xipi is flowing water, playing the trick of you singing and I appearing.
When she went out, she saw the second aunt and his wife enter the hall with two maids, and she was busy blessing according to the old etiquette, saying: "I have seen the second wife, I took the liberty to come to the door yesterday, and I didn't have time to greet you, which is really rude." ”
The second aunt has always held a pie, and when she saw Shen Qiangrose being so submissive, she was proud in her heart, but her face was not revealed, and she only said politely: "Your child has grown up under my watch, and there is no difference between you and my own daughter, so tell me how I treat you?" Our mother and daughter have just met, and you are making this set of false articles, isn't this a slap in my face? ”
Shen Qiangrose hurriedly stepped forward to hug her, and said softly: "In the past, I was in the house, and it was the best with the second wife, my mother always told me, saying, 'The second wife is a person who worships the Buddha, and has a noble temperament like an orchid' has always asked me to treat each other politely, all these years have passed, I still remember, I haven't seen the second wife for a long time, but the respect in my heart has not changed, and it is natural to see the etiquette is the rule." ”
The second aunt couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said, "Among these children, you have the sweetest mouth." ”
Shen Qiangrose helped her sit on the sofa, held the tea in both hands and handed it over, and said, "It's just that the second wife doesn't dislike my clumsy tongue, this cup of tea, please smile at it." ”
The second aunt is too accustomed to the scene, so she immediately took it with a pleasant face, took a sip lightly, and then put it on the coffee table, and said: "I thought that your child entered the door like this, and he must not even have a decent wedding dress. Yesterday I got some old tailors to make one according to your size, and you can try it to see if it fits. ”
