"Yes!" Yinling nodded yes, and when she saw Xu Shu's face showing a little apprehension, she comforted, "Miss Nine is relieved, although the master is very strict with outsiders, he is very kind to his own family!" ”
Xu Shu smiled, "No matter how strict my father is, there is also my mother, what do I have to worry about!" ”
"That's it! Madame hurts Miss Nine the most! Seeing that Yuzhu Yinzhi had already packed up everything, Yinling said, "It's not early, Miss Nine will rest early, and the slave will go back to Puyuxuan first, the master is back, and there is no shortage of people on Madame's side!" ”
"Good! You're also familiar, so I'm not polite to ask someone to send you, go back by yourself! ”
"Whoa!"
After Yinling left, Yuzhu opened the gift box sent by Yinling, and was shocked when she opened the first box, "Miss, it's a box of Dongzhu!" ”
Yinzhi leaned over and took a look, and praised, "It's rare to have such a box of Dongzhu with the same size and color, and the slave maid has served Madame for so many years, and I've seen such a good pearl necklace from the old lady!" ”
"Yes!" Yuzhu stretched out her hand and pulled it, "It's exactly the same size, exactly the same color, warm and delicate, there is no flaw at all, and any jewelry is good-looking!" ”
Saying that, he went to open the second gift box, opened it and took a look, a box of colored gemstones, and saw that the amount was enough to make a few sets of heads, so he went to open the remaining gift boxes all of them, not gems, or rare objects, all of which were not ordinary things, or even gold ingots with good color.
After opening the gift box and looking at the table full of treasures, Yuzhu said curiously, "Didn't the master go out of Beijing on an errand?" How did you bring so many things back? It's like going to trade! ”
Yinzhi chuckled lightly and didn't squeak, where did the old man bring these things back, these were all prepared by the lady early, and when the fourth master Zheng came back, he sent it in the name of the fourth master of Zheng Si, just to let the fourth master Zheng give Xu Shu a good impression, and the lady really hurt Miss Nine!
"Alright, let's put everything away!" Of course, Xu Shu understood that these things were not brought back by Master Zheng Si, but Mrs. Zheng Si had a heart, and she couldn't live up to it.
Yuzhu muttered while packing up her things, "No wonder you want to send them this night, if these things are sent during the day, I don't know how many people will attract red eyes!" ”
Yuzhu said the truth, the Zheng family has a lot of eyeliner, there are more people to see, how can there be fewer gossips, and it is going to add to Xu Shu's trouble, Mrs. Zheng is really considerate.
"Miss, you should rest early, Ming'er is going to call the master, but it is not rude to go earlier than usual!"
"Hmmm! Serve me and freshen up! Xu Shu went to sit in front of the dresser, and Yinzhi spread her hair in a bun for her, Yinzhi looked at Xu Shu's forehead in the mirror, and saw that the bruises had faded a lot, and the redness and swelling had disappeared.
Xu Shu freshened up and rested here, but Puyuxuan was still brightly lit.
Mr. Zheng Si went out for several months before coming back, and when the husband and wife saw each other, their eyes were particularly hot, Mrs. Zheng Si instructed the small kitchen to make a table of dishes, dismissed the subordinates, and personally served Mr. Zheng Si for dinner.
"Sit down, we husband and wife, what else do you want these false courtesies to do!" Master Zheng Si took Mrs. Zheng Si's hand and sat beside him, "It's so late, the dinner in the house is early, you can eat some too!" As he spoke, he took the empty bowl on the side and gave Mrs. Zheng Si a bowl of porridge, "Your favorite lily and lotus seed porridge!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si took it, drank two bites and couldn't eat it, and Mr. Zheng Si said strangely, "What's wrong?" It's been an hour or two before dinner, why aren't you hungry? ”
Mrs. Zheng Si said with a smile, "At dinner, Xiao Jiu sent a pot of duck soup, which was very delicious, and the concubine drank two more bowls, and now I still feel like I can hold it!" ”
"Xiao Jiu......" Master Zheng Si smiled, "I came back for less than an hour, and you mentioned her no less than ten times!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si said angrily, "Xiao Jiu is so caring, I think of her from time to time!" ”
"Listening to you say that, you're a clever man!" Master Zheng Si smiled, "But if you can be appreciated by the queen, you must not be a layman!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si gently pinched Master Zheng Si, "There is no good person in the master's mouth!" ”
"You!" Master Zheng Si sighed, "You have a simple heart, you don't know the sinister way of the world, and people's hearts are unpredictable!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si was not happy when she heard this, and snatched the chopsticks from the hand of Mr. Zheng Si, "The master has such a mind to figure it out, I think I am full!" ”
Master Zheng Si obediently put down his chopsticks, took Mrs. Zheng Si's hand and said to her carefully, "It's not that I like to figure out people, but anyone who knows the inside story will understand it if you think about it!" You see that she is a blind girl, and her background is not high, first because of her righteous deeds, she won the favor of the Queen Mother, and then worshiped under the name of Master Miaofan, and gradually became famous in Shengjing, it was four or five years ago, how old was she four or five years ago? ”
Mrs. Zheng Si pinched her fingers and counted, Xu Shu is only fifteen this year, and Xu Shu was only in her early tens when she became famous in the capital, ten years old...... That's just a kid...... She hadn't even thought about this before, and Mrs. Zheng's face darkened.
"I'm only so old, so I haven't asked anyone to take the slightest mistake, all the good things that come out are good, and you think about what kind of scheming you have to do here!" Seeing that Mrs. Zheng Si's face was not as happy as before, he thought that she had entered, so Master Zheng Si said again, "If you think about it further, how old was she when her righteous act of saving her brother in the sea of fire came out?" ”
"Five or six years old at most...... "Mrs. Zheng Si pinched her fingers and counted again.
"A five- or six-year-old child, in the face of the surging fire, has not lost his mind, and can still protect the safety of an infant baby, this mind, with her current age and experience, can Mrs. be as calm and rational as she was back then?"
Seeing that Mrs. Zheng Si was silent for a long time, as if she knew that she was wrong, Master Zheng Si comforted, "She is by your side all day long, what you see and listen to is what she told you, after a long time, it will inevitably be biased towards her, and it will be unfair to see things!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si said with a straight face, "Yes! I'll admit she's brilliant, but so what? Did she use her intelligence to hurt people? Has she used her intelligence to do anything unreasonable? ”
"This ......," Master Zheng Si said, this is really not ......
"Sir, this is biased!" Mrs. Zheng Si snorted, quite dissatisfied with Master Zheng Si, "Did you inquire about Xiao Jiu before the master came back?" Otherwise, why didn't he talk about Xiao Jiu's head and the truth, the master immediately believed it after listening to what others said, this is a blind eye, and it is unfair! ”
