Chapter Seventy-One: Stratagem
People always have a preconceived idea of what someone is like, but after really understanding it, sometimes there will be a great contrast.
For example, Liang Ju was very repulsive to Shen Jing at first, thinking that she was here to harm herself, but after getting along for so long, she found that she came to redeem him.
So Liang Ju thanked her, he took a serious look at his marriage for the first time, and finally summed it up, with his status in Houfu, it was also a high incense to be able to marry Shen Jing.
Shen Jing is the second daughter of the Hubu Shangshu, with a noble status and a pampered personality, the two eldest brothers are also young and promising, and the elder sister is still a princess.
Looking at Shen Jingqi again, she is one in a hundred miles in appearance, has both ability and political integrity, and has a good family, how can such a woman not be attractive?
Thinking like this, Liang Ju only reminded himself again and again that he had to speed up his pace and become stronger. Recently, Liang Ju has also begun to take action, reading books in the morning, and comparing martial arts with his personal guard Lu Qing in the afternoon.
The next day, Shen Jing still didn't come up with any excerpts, and when he and Liang Ju looked at each other, Deng came.
Shen Jing was recuperating these days, and the Deng family came to see her a few times, and he also sent a lot of supplements.
Deng Shi saw that the young couple were both there, and quipped: "Ouch, I didn't come at the right time, I disturbed the two of you." ”
Shen Jing had already stood up to greet him, and Deng walked over quickly, "Don't talk about these false courtesies, your body is weak, and the etiquette is not too tight, and your body is important." Originally, I wanted to come and see you every day, but I thought that you were coming and going here every day, which disturbed your rest. ”
While speaking, the two had already sat down, and Liang Ju got up and bowed to Deng Shi in amusement and left the house.
"Let the third aunt worry." Shen Jing said and instructed his subordinates to watch the tea.
"I heard that you resumed your greetings yesterday, so you should rest for a while." Deng said with a reproach, "No one can say anything about you." ”
Shen Jing smiled gently, "My body is already well, so I don't want to be stuffy in the house all day, thinking about walking around, so as not to hold back some other problems." ”
When Deng heard this, he replied: "That's the same reason. After a pause, he asked again: "I just saw you and your eldest nephew talking, and you looked worried, did you encounter any trouble?" ”
Originally, the Deng family was good to Liang Yinong, but Shen Jing didn't want to hide it, thinking that the Deng family could come up with an idea, so he replied: "I'm worried about Yinong's marriage, I guess the third aunt has also heard about it, and my mother is looking at her husband's family for Yinong." ”
Of course, Deng Shi heard about it, and couldn't help sneering at this moment: "Your mother is really short-sighted, thinking about harming Yinong, and ruining her reputation in a row." ”
Shen Jing disagreed with Deng's opinion, and continued: "Yi Nong has no one to come up to say goodbye at this age, and my mother wants to put down her face to say goodbye, how can she have a bad reputation, and it is almost the same to earn a reputation." ”
Deng Shi thought about it, but it was really like this, "But you see what kind of family she showed Sister Nong, I went to talk to Yi Nong a few days ago, and Yi Nong was still crying!." ”
"My mother is a woman in the house, and I can excuse myself by not knowing the truth," after a pause, he said: "What's more, it's better than not being able to get married, and your reputation won't be damaged." In addition, if Yinong is not good at marrying, it is not beneficial to Liang Ju, and the worse result is that she has become a burden to Liang Ju? This is more attractive to the mother than to earn a good name. ”
Deng Shi reacted for a while before he realized what Shen Jing meant, and was amazed by Shen Jing's thinking for a while, "If I hadn't sat across from you and listened to you say this with my own ears, I really wouldn't have thought that these analyses came out of your mouth." ”
Shen Shi thought about what he didn't expect, he was a little embarrassed, admired Shen Jing more and more, and continued to boast: "Sure enough, the rumors from the outside world can't be believed, I thought that you are not as pampered as the rumors, so dislike of general affairs, I didn't want to be so far-sighted, if you are a man, you must be like your brothers, young and promising." ”
Hearing Deng's praise like this, normal people want to get it, Shen Jing couldn't cry or laugh a little, "If it weren't for the third aunt sitting opposite me praising me, I wouldn't believe that the third aunt was praising me." The third aunt can also think of it, but she thinks about it differently. ”
The two of them said a few more polite words, and Deng returned to the topic, "Do you have an idea?" I said I wanted to help Nong'er, but I couldn't think of how to help, if there was something useful, you were welcome, just talk to me. ”
Shen Jing told the plans of several people and the current troubles, Deng Shi heard it, frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Maybe you can really use me." ”
Shen Jing tilted his head slightly to look at the Deng family, and said expectantly: "What good idea did the third aunt think of?" ”
Deng told Shen Jing his method, and Shen Jing's eyes lit up after hearing it, "The third aunt just praised me, she really tortured me." Then his face straightened, and he said sincerely: "Then Aunt Lao will bother." ”
Deng Shi talked to Shen Jing again, then left with his subordinates, and said to Shen Jing before leaving: "This matter should be done as soon as possible, that woman must settle Nong'er's family affairs before your grandparents go home, she must be more anxious now, if it is settled, it will be difficult to do." ”
Shen Jing was stunned for a moment, he was still expecting the old couple to come back to help, but now it is unrealistic to think about it, nodded and said, "Of course." ”
Liang Ju came back to see that Shen Jing was in a good mood, and asked the reason, knowing that their troubles had been solved, and he was also happy, and he also brought another good news.
It's that the rumors about Zhou Bei outside have spread, and the rumors are even more outrageous.
People always like to add branches and leaves when they pass the word, one pass ten to the hundred, the three of them also become tigers, there are many people, and the outrageous can not be avoided. In the Internet era of the previous life, this situation was all too common.
Deng returned to his own courtyard, looked at the people in the house, and made the dishes set up for dinner.
"Which room is the third master eating in today?" Deng asked as he ate.
"At Aunt Song's."
Deng's hand sneered, "Aunt Song is very capable, she can keep a man's heart, when will she be like that poisonous woman, she will come out of my seat." ”
A group of people didn't know why Deng suddenly talked about this, Deng didn't pay attention to it, and then said: "That poisonous woman is really poisonous, Aunt Song will not be sent to our room, maybe she will be squeezed down again if she is just straightened out." ”
In front of so many people, Cuilin reminded in a timely manner, "The master eats well, don't think about something that doesn't affect your appetite." ”
Deng sneered, "My eldest nephew didn't like his wife so much, but now he accompanies him all day long, which makes people so envious!" ”
The next person was puzzled in his heart, it turned out that the Deng family saw that other people's husbands and wives were you and me, and his own father was accompanying his aunt, and he felt uncomfortable.
It was still Cuilin who answered and said, "That's the blessing of the big grandmother." ”
Deng put down his chopsticks, "Heh, that poisonous woman was planning to bring her niece into the house to definitely benefit her, but I didn't think that the eldest young master and the eldest grandmother were not stupid, and they didn't follow her way." ”
This time, no one answered, and Deng continued: "Now I want to say goodbye to Sister Nong, but look at who they choose," paused, sighed again, and said regretfully: "Sister Nong is pitiful, it's better to marry than not to marry." ”
Cuilin replied: "Madame said this reason, the eldest lady must be a blessed person, and the rumors outside cannot be fully believed." ”
Deng sneered, "What kind of good marriage can that poisonous woman give her, Sister Nong cried to me last time, saying that it would be good not to marry and become a drag on her brother." I don't know if these candidates will drag them down, but they should be better than this year's champions. ”
Cuilin asked at the right time, "How can Wu Zhuangyuan be bad?" ”
"The name is good, but I heard that the character is very bad." After speaking, Deng quietly swept several people in the room.
"The slave is curious." Cuilin asked curiously.
Deng quickly solved his doubts, "I heard that no one dared to come to the door to propose marriage, that person has a three-year-old son, and he will be a stepmother when he marries, but his identity will not affect it, but I heard that the child's mother was beaten to death by him, saying that he had bad habits, but he said to the outside world that he died of illness, and ordinary people do not want to marry their daughters in distress, and they don't want to marry a small family with his current status." ”
"I can't believe this kind of rumor." Cuilin said again.
"Didn't you hear about the eldest young master when he went out to drink, and I'll just talk about it. But I haven't heard of these words, marrying this person is considered a high climb," sighed slightly, and said with self-mockery: "Why have you changed so many words today!" How old is it? ”
Deng got up and entered the inner room as he spoke, and Cuilin immediately followed. The Deng family hated the Shen family very much, and he used to say ugly things in front of his subordinates when he was in a bad mood, but now everyone is not suspicious.
When there were only two people left, Deng Shi instructed Cuilin, "You keep an eye on Chen Po." ”
"Yes."
Deng Shi sat on the stool and sighed, "I don't know if the poisonous woman will follow us?" ”
It turned out that the idea that Deng had come up with today was also to use Shen Jing's previous method to spread the word. Deng deliberately said this in front of his subordinates, just to let this word reach Shen's ears, Chen Po was Deng's dowry girl, and she took refuge in Shen for profit, but Deng always pretended not to know.
"Madame has a good heart, and if she succeeds, she will be considered dedicated, and in the end, it depends on the creation of the eldest lady." Cuilin was relieved, "Madam, don't worry about these things. ”
Deng Shi showed a sour smile, "It's okay, it saves me from worrying about other things." ”
Of course, Cuilin knew that other things were about the third master, and he only felt more sorry for the master at the moment, "That fox Meizi is a concubine in the end, after so many years, my uncle didn't think about correcting her, she didn't have to come to give you a morning and dusk province." ”
"I can only comfort myself like this."
After serving the Deng family to rest, Cuilin went to see Chen Po's movements, so that people watched, and sure enough, Chen Po came into contact with the people on the other side of the big house.
When Shen heard the rumor, he sneered: "My younger brother and sister are not small to be stimulated, and when I see Tian'er calling me a poisonous woman, I am not afraid of ruining her own reputation," paused, and said angrily: "I can't manage my own one-third of an acre of land, and I still care about the eldest lady's marriage, but it's a pity that she can't interfere." ”
Mama Zhu naturally coaxed and flattered the Shen family, and the Shen family frowned, "I really want to fulfill their wishes, you send someone to inquire about Zhou Bei, the champion of the martial arts." ”
"Madam, do you want to ......" Mama Zhu was puzzled.
Shen Shi smiled coldly: "Isn't the eldest lady's marriage still decided?" ”
