At night, Shen Qiutan called Xiaogua: "Take some more loose silver and talk about the tone of Yannian Courtyard." ”

"Hey, the slave is awake."

Shen Qiutan opened the window, wanting to let the cold wind in, but there was no cold in the spring, she looked at the oil lamp swaying in the wind, and her brows were tightly wrinkled.

Shen Hong's head must have happened for a reason, but I don't know where the reason is.

Originally, what she was most anxious about now was to find a Mr. Enlightenment before Mao Mao was four years old, but now the situation reminded her that she should also think for herself.

In September of this year, he will be 14 years old, and his younger brother will be almost 4 years old.

For this era, my age is indeed not young...... Grandfather won't be real......

"Girl!" Xiaogua hurriedly went upstairs: "Listen to the three nobles beside the old marquis, just today at noon, the old marquis went to the music building to listen to the music, and met the fifth son of the Wang family, the two got together and talked for a while, and when they came back, the old marquis asked about the girl's situation. ”

Shen Qiutan's heart sank, didn't Wang Chongzhi dispel his thoughts?

"When you went, did your grandfather sleep?"

Xiaogua shook his head: "It's already rested, the girl wants to ......"

"Tomorrow is saying, you all go down, red beans stay."

The maids went downstairs, and Shen Qiutan asked Hongdou: "You are in this mansion, do you have someone who is pleasing to the eye?" ”

Hongdou blushed and couldn't speak, and the girl's question was too direct.

Shen Qiutan took out two pieces of paper from the cuff: "If the blind marriage is not good, it will be unfortunate after marriage, I am very embarrassed in the Shen family, these days Uncle Qiao Shan has dragged a few families outside, although it is not a rich and noble family, but it is also a good family with a simple population and a good character." ”

The red tide on Hongdou's face that rose because of shyness receded, and was replaced by a panicked look: "Girl, slave maid...... There's no rush yet. By this winter, the slave and maid will only be sixteen, and they will be able to serve for several years. ”

The kneeling three years ago is still vivid, at that time she begged for Shen Qiutan's trust, and now she knelt down again, and her heart had long since lost her original apprehension, only gratitude.

It turned out that Steward Qiao had said something to herself, and it turned out that the girl was planning for herself, but she ......

"There's no urgency about this, I'm just mentioning it, crying for something. You're gone, and it's not enough for me to have only one Angelica by my side. After speaking, Shen Qiutan handed the two pieces of paper to Hongdou: "Since you take the list of literacy back first, if there is a consensus, it will not be too late for us to look at each other." ”

Her meaning is already very clear, she wants to find a family outside the Shen Mansion for Hongdou, but Hongdou is like this...... Could it be that he fell in love with someone in the house?

Shen Qiutan wanted to get rid of the Shen family in her heart, but what she didn't like herself was not necessarily disliked by others.

"Yes, thank you, girl."

…………

On the second day, Shen Qiutan went to Yannian Courtyard again.

"Grandfather, you don't have to look at people for me anymore." She came early, and if she was late, she was afraid that her grandfather would go out again.

"When you're thirsty, pour your own tea." Old Marquis Shen's tone was calm and warm, as if they had always been close to the two ancestors and grandchildren.

Shen Qiutan couldn't see anything, and Shen Hong said again: "What, you still want to lie to me and say that Xiao Shilang has decided you?" ”

Thinking about it, I was really old and confused before, and I actually believed the words of this little slippery head.

Shen Qiutan smiled: "Exactly." ”

Xiao Shizi, who told you to rely on me to track down the rest of the account books for you, and let me borrow them again.

"Hmph, now who doesn't know that Xiao Jiqing is a good man, but he actually talks about him again, am I really confused?" The old marquis put his chopsticks aside.

"Whether it's a man's style, a woman doesn't refuse."

"That's what you, an unmarried woman, can say? These words can be put on the lips! Old Marquis Shen was angry on his face, but he was a little disapprehensive in his heart, he was just thinking about deducting money from the Chen family and neglecting this granddaughter, but now that she is about to get married, she must let her know who has the final say in this family, and who is in charge of her fate.

"Grandfather, do you remember that when my grandmother asked my aunt to take me and Mao Mao back to the Shen family, what did she promise me?"

Old Marquis Shen's arrogance was momentarily paused, and then he flicked his sleeves: "This time, that time." ”

"Oh, I knew my grandfather would say that." Shen Qiutan smiled coldly: "Gardenia, come forward." ”

"Yes." Gardenia bows down.

"I'm talking about you, what are you doing with a girl?"

"Grandfather probably thinks his granddaughter lied before, right?"

"Isn't it?"

Shen Qiutan gave Gardenia a look: "Explain it clearly to the old marquis." ”

"Yes." Gardenia first replied to Shen Qiutan, and then turned to Old Marquis Shen: "Old Marquis, the slave maid was born in the Protectorate Mansion, and the master of the slave is Xiao Yang, the prince of the Princess, and now he is ordered to be by the side of the Nine Girls to protect the safety of the Nine Girls." ”

"You...... This ......" The old marquis pointed at Shen Qiutan and couldn't speak, and Gardenia handed over the waist card on his body again: "This is based on faith." ”

"How did you get in? A person from the Xiao family actually ran to my Shen family to protect my Shen family. The old marquis's face was extremely ugly.

Shen Qiutan waved his hand and motioned for Gardenia to go down, and there were only two grandchildren left in the house.

Shen Qiutan found a comfortable position to sit down, poured another cup of tea and drank it, thinking that there was enough time for Shen Hong to adjust his mood, so he said slowly: "Grandfather, would you rather watch me being carried into the Wang family as a concubine?" But you don't want to see me enter the Xiao family as a wife? ”

"You know everything?" The old marquis was taken aback, and asked again: "Can you be a wife when you enter the Xiao family?" How do they do it? ”

The Xiao family is naturally better than the Wang family, but the lintel of the Shen family is that the ancestors can't reach the back of the Xiao family's head even if they burn high incense.

"Grandfather, Xiao Shizi went back to Beijing a few days ago and went out of his way to see his granddaughter." She didn't tell a word of lies, and as for what this grandfather thinks, it depends on his performance.

"You've ......"

Shen Qiutan hurriedly said: "No, where did my grandfather go." This is too direct: "Xiao Shizi is not that kind of person. ”

The old marquis saw his granddaughter's shy look, and he was shocked beyond measure, seeing that this was true, but he had already promised Wang Chongzhi that he would take his granddaughter and him as a concubine, how should this be?

Wang Huaici is a courteous person, but Wang Chongzhi has always been a horizontal person.

"In this way, the granddaughter will go back to Zhuangzi and come back to see her grandfather in two days."

The old marquis was full of lawsuits, waving his hands casually, until he saw the empty teacup that his granddaughter had drunk, and his heart was full of sighs.

But the granddaughter has already gone away.

That's it, and then what happens, it's up to God's will.

When Shen Qiutan arrived at the door, he saw that Wangshan had already set up the car and was waiting at the corner gate, so he hurriedly got into the carriage. If you don't leave now, when will you stay?

I really want to make myself a concubine for a notorious prodigal, I don't want such a grandfather!

Wangshan didn't know why, the carriage drove steadily, Shen Qiutan kept watching the carriage out of the city, and his hanging heart was put down.

The road to Zhuangzi in the western suburbs was very smooth, but they set off early, and they did not meet any pedestrians or other vehicles on the road.

Shen Qiutan didn't know the reason, he only heard the outside looking at the mountain shouting: "Come out, where did the grandson come from, sneaky, and dare to make trouble in the capital!" ”
