Shen Qiutan asked Mu Xiang to find a tea shop, gave the coachman two taels of silver, sealed his mouth, and then took the little guy into the private room of the tea shop.

There are several masters and servants, none of whom can make tea, and now, no one is in the mood to eat tea.

Shen Qiutan shook open the letter, only to realize that the reply from her uncle had already reached the Shen family, but it didn't reach her. As soon as she learned to write, she wrote a letter to her uncle in Guangling with her crooked handwriting, euphemistically asking her mother about the dowry list, and more than three months have passed, and she thought that her uncle would not reply to her, but now I know that there are so many twists and turns.

Moreover, this is the second letter, and I don't know if the first letter fell into the hands of Wang, Lao Yang, or her good grandfather.

"Cousin, the lord said that you should not worry, the dowry list is very important, he will leave for the capital after three dog days, and please wait a little longer."

Shen Qiutan's eyes lit up, his uncle was actually coming to the capital?

The little guy looked at Mu Xiang, Mu Xiang was carrying a hammer and was not ready to leave, Bai Zhi was already guarding the door, what if this kid who came from nowhere used force against the girl again?

The little guy saw that the burly wood fragrance did not move at all, so he laughed dryly: "The little one's name is Chen Zhuang'er, and the villain's mother used to be ......."

Shen Qiutan put the letter away: "Or what?" ”

"My cousin didn't know that my mother used to be my aunt's nurse." After speaking, he gave Shen Qiutan three deeds of sale: "The villain's life will also be a girl's in the future!" There were two other people who came to the capital with me, and if there was anything outside, the girl would just give me an order. ”

Shen Qiutan looked at the three deeds of sale in his hand, and wrote down the name, where, and main family from Chen Derun to Shen Qiutan's name, and also stamped the seal of Guangling Mansion, which could not be wrong.

According to the law of Daning, men and women can have their own inheritance and slaves after the age of ten.

Unexpectedly, her uncle, who had never seen her, would think so much about her, and Shen Qiutan's heart was comfortable.

"I really need to hire people recently, how many of you, do you know how to settle accounts? Or can you find one for me? "Uncle Qiao Shan was sent to the field, she was in urgent need of a shopkeeper of a wine shop, she originally went to the Tang family to finalize this matter, but now it seems that it can be saved.

Chen Zhuang'er patted her chest: "Why should the girl be willing to seek the near and far? None of our Chen family knows how to calculate, if the girl can be trusted, let Zhuang'er be the shopkeeper for the girl! ”

"That's great!"

Shen Qiutan didn't expect the matter to be solved so smoothly, so he asked Chen Zhuang'er questions such as "How is Guangling, my uncle is in good health, who else is in the family, and how did they enter Beijing, and where are they settled now".

Then, Shen Qiutan asked Mu Xiang to take Chen Zhuang'er to Jinlifang to recognize the door, and gave Chen Zhuang'er the two letters he had just written, and ordered her to send them to the two ladies Tang and Wei, but he ordered the coachman to go to Xishi.

The coachman accepted Shen Qiutan's silver, and he was more energetic to catch the car along the way, and Shen Qiutan said that he would go to the West Market, but he didn't even ask.

The West Market is not as open as the East Market, but there are more small people in the market of all kinds, Shen Qiutan bought some peppercorns, cloves, and some flower and fruit seeds that are easy to feed, and then returned to the Shen Mansion in large bags.

When I entered the Shen Mansion, I found that today's Shen Mansion was a little lively.

Hongdou hurriedly came to report, saying that the second lady Wang's brother had been promoted, and he had entered the military department as a waiter from the original Zhongzhou Thorn History. Although Zhongzhou Thorn Shi and Zhongshu Shilang are both four-rank officials, they have changed from the original local officials in the barren land to the Beijing officials with the core of power, and they are still confidential departments such as the Ministry of War, which is indeed a real promotion.

"Girl, should we go to Huiyutang to ask for peace, I heard that now the eldest lady with six girls, and the fourth lady with seven girls are all in Huiyutang."

Shen Qiutan had changed into homely clothes and was about to go to see Xiao Changzhen, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but say: "I have already torn my face, why bother to be peaceful on my face?" "She just wants to transfer Uncle Qiao Shan back first.

Hongdou was a little helpless, but he also knew Shen Qiutan's temper, so he had to hold back and stop persuading, but he didn't expect a little girl from Huiyutang to come, saying that the second lady was invited.

In this way, Shen Qiutan is not going to go.

…………

Outside Huiyu Hall, the tall and short moon season has already budded, and the maids and women they met along the way are full of joy on their faces.

Shen Qiutan knew that she, the second aunt, was rising and refreshed.

In Huiyutang, there were constant laughs, Xiao Yang's family didn't look down on this sister-in-law, but she didn't expect that it was really thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, not only thirty years, only ten years, her second sister-in-law not only had a son-in-law, but also took the authority of the housekeeper, and even her mother's family became more and more powerful.

It's me, a pair of twins who were hurting like eyeballs, but this kind of thing happened, and so far, I don't even have a sister-in-law......

Shen Qiutan greeted everyone, and Wang asked her to get up with a smile, as if the tension of a month ago had never happened.

Shen Qiutan sat next to Shen Qiutong, and found that Shen Qiujin on the opposite side was looking at him intently.

Although the queen mother forbade the twins' feet, she just didn't allow them to leave the Shen Mansion, and they were still free in the mansion.

Seeing Shen Qiutan looking at him, Shen Qiujin suddenly smiled: "I haven't seen you for two months, and the ninth sister looks a lot better." ”

Everyone was shocked, but they didn't expect Shen Qiujin, who had been silent, to speak.

"It's just that I've gained some weight, and it's hard for the seventh sister to still worry about it." Shen Qiutan said.

Xiao Yang's still doesn't want to see Shen Qiutan today, but her daughter, whose personality has changed greatly, is willing to talk, and she will never go against the other again.

Wang said with a smile: "I cut new clothes for you a few days ago, but are they all suitable?" Your grandfather and grandmother have already sent a message, the girls are old, it is time to dress up, and in two days your aunt will take you to Baotai Silver Building, and each of you will add two pieces of jewelry! ”

Shen Qiutong smiled, even Shen Qiumei, who had always been shy, also smiled, Shen Qiutan thanked him together, Shen Qiujin suddenly said: "Second uncle, I can't leave the house, but don't leave me with this jewelry, I want a pair of butterfly hairpins!"

The butterfly hairpin is the signature jewelry of Baotai Yinlou, the meticulous workmanship is famous in the capital, and the price is naturally not expensive, Xiao Yang looked at Wang a little nervously, and Wang happily agreed.

"In a blink of an eye, the children are so old, Qiumei and my eldest brother's Shuhui are the same age, Shuhui is married, and our girls should really dress up."

Shen Qiumei didn't know that her mother-in-law mentioned herself like this, but her face turned red with shame.

Since returning from the last Spring Festival banquet, there are several squires in the suburbs of Beijing, and petty officials and officials came to ask Shen Qiumei, but Shen Yanhai disliked those who either had too low official positions or too thin family backgrounds, and none of them agreed.

Yao looked at everyone with a smile and didn't speak.

The spring has changed to the hot summer, and the nine nieces and nephews have turned into jade silk with their second siblings, and this Shen family is really becoming more and more "peaceful".
