Chapter 165: Finally returning to Beijing for nothing
"There's a lot going on at home." Angelica dahurica added hot water to the tub.
"Earlier, the girl disappeared, and Uncle Wangshan went back to the Shen family, and when he heard that the fifth girl did not go back, he came to Zhuangzi directly and told the old lady about the girl. The old lady was anxious and sent someone to look for the girl, but she did not find her for several days. ”
Shen Qiutan felt more and more guilty in his heart, how anxious his grandmother should have been at that time.
Later, when I still remembered the little boy, the old lady had the strength to take the money and go to the Shen Mansion to pick up the little boy in person. The slave and maid also followed, and only then did they know ......"
"Know what?"
"Knowing that day, the fifth girl also disappeared, and after the news of the disappearance of the girl and the fifth girl came back, the Shen Mansion was in chaos, and the eighth girl almost took the opportunity to run away."
"Huh." You can imagine what it was like at that time.
Later, the seventh girl personally caught the eighth girl and went to the old marquis, and the old marquis severely punished the eight girls. Now the house says that the seventh girl is possessed by unclean things, otherwise how could she be so cruel to her own siblings. ”
Whether it was possessed by something, Shen Qiutan didn't know, she only knew that the twin sisters were still under the grounding order of the Queen Mother, and if Shen Qiuqi escaped successfully, the Queen Mother would definitely hold the Shen family accountable.
And the queen mother was careless at that time, because she was afraid that the scandal would leak out and damage the reputation of the eldest princess of Longqing, and the laissez-faire of these years may have forgotten the Shen sisters, but once the twins themselves were moths, don't blame the queen mother and the eldest princess for remembering and cleaning them up.
"What about the fifth sister?" Since the autumn of that year, Shen Qiutan and Shen Qiutong have only left their face.
"The fifth girl was sent back the next day, it turned out that she was scattered that day, and she was rescued by the seventeenth Langjun of the Yan family by mistake, and after five or six days, the Yan family came to propose marriage."
"Oh? But the Yan family? ”
"Exactly, in March, the Najib ceremony has passed, and the marriage has been made, and Yan Shishilang is not young anymore, and if he can't come this year, the five girls will marry."
Shen Qiutan nodded, got up and wiped the water on his body.
He vaguely remembered that the two most outstanding sons of the Yan family, one was ranked first and had already entered the official career, and the other was ranked eleventh, who was also extremely talented, and as for Seventeen Langjun, there was no news.
"I heard that the seventeenth Langjun is not talented, and he is the son of the second room of the Yan family."
Shen Qiutan nodded, the son of a prosperous family?
Is this family really a coincidence, or was it planned by the fifth sister herself?
The Yan family is so good?
At the door, Liu's mother said softly: "Girl, can you freshen up?" The old lady waited for the girl to have a snack together, and the little boy. ”
"Here we are!"
…………
In the main room, Mrs. Chen had obviously cried, her eyes were still a little red, and the chubby Shen Maomao was hugged by the peach blossoms.
Seeing his younger brother, Shen Qiutan opened his arms and wanted to hug him, but who knew that Mao Mao actually shrank into Peach Blossom's arms.
Looking at the back of his brother's head, Shen Qiutan put down his arm in embarrassment, but who knew that Mao Mao was lying on the peach blossom and quietly looked at Shen Qiutan.
Shen Qiutan pretended not to see it, first served a bowl of dumplings to his grandmother, and then served the dishes and chopsticks himself, and ate carefully, who knew that Mao Mao saw that his sister ignored him for a long time, and cried loudly.
"Bad!" Hiccups while crying.
He is now more than two years old and almost three years old, and he has become sensible.
Shen Qiutan hurriedly hugged his younger brother: "It's my sister who is bad, she ran out for more than two months, Mao Mao still remembers her sister?" ”
The child's memory is short, and Shen Qiutan didn't know if Mao Mao could remember himself, and it wasn't until this moment that he was sure.
Mao Mao cried very aggrieved, and later cried tiredly, and still pulled Shen Qiutan's shirt and didn't let go.
"Sure enough, it's flesh and blood, the little boy thinks about the girl!" Mother Liu smiled and made fun, and Mrs. Chen nodded in agreement.
In the final analysis, her son is not her own, but these two grandsons are really connected to her.
After breakfast, Mao Mao was finally coaxed out by Peach Blossom, and only Mrs. Chen and Shen Qiutan were left in the house.
"Say, for more than two months, what are you ......" Mrs. Chen said hurriedly: "About ten days ago, someone brought me a message, saying that you are okay and will be back soon, but my heart is always up and down, that group of people...... Who exactly? Have they bullied you? ”
Shen Qiutan thought of Li Qi, who made her a mat, the corners of her mouth twitched, and said with a smile: "Naturally no, I originally went to chase Xiao Shizi, but then I didn't catch up and got lost, and then I went all the way down the Huainan ......."
"Huainan? You ......" Old Madam Chen was shocked and couldn't speak: "There are so many bandits on the road, you have walked so far......"
"Grandmother, don't worry, I'm all changed, and besides, your granddaughter is smart, and I happened to meet Lord Lu's car on the road, so Lord Lu sent someone to send me back."
Mrs. Chen didn't speak, Qiu Tan was young, and she had no evidence or certificate, so why did Lord Lu sneak for her, and quickly returned to the capital to deliver a letter with herself, and sent her granddaughter back safe and sound.
Looking at Qiu Tan's ruddy little face, it seems to be a little more mellow than during the Shangyuan Festival, presumably she didn't suffer much on the way, and most of what she said was a lie to comfort herself.
It's just that her granddaughter has grown up, and if she doesn't want to say it, she can't force herself.
Hmph, what a little stubborn donkey! Just like her father!
"After the Shangyuan Festival, Wangshan came to me, and I said to the outside world that you were scattered by the crowd, and that night I hurried out of the city gate and came to Zhuangzi to look for me. Shen Fu came to ask for someone a few times, and I only said that you were sick or went to Yunlu Temple, you remember not to say wrong. ”
"Yes, my grandmother is meticulous, Qiu Tan remembers."
"Not many people know about this, not even your cousin and cousin, I didn't say anything, except for the maid next to you, you have to restrain yourself."
"I'm awake, grandmother don't worry." Shen Qiutan hugged Mrs. Chen's arm and refused to let go in a sticky way: "Grandmother, I miss you!" ”
Old Madam Chen stretched out her index finger and pointed at her forehead: "A little monkey!" ”
"Old lady, Xiao Shizi is here."
Shen Qiutan was taken aback, how could it be so fast, although it was divided into two groups, Li Chong didn't set off a few days earlier than himself.
This time, Li Chong was followed by multiple guards and eunuchs, and he stared at Shen Qiutan: "Listen to Zhang Gui, on the day of Shangyuan Festival, you went to look for me?" ”
"yes."
"Then you were swept away, and you were still injured?"
"Yes. It's been a long time, you'...... Where have you been these days? How did I lose so much weight. ”
Li Chong turned his face away: "Whoever is like you knows how to eat all day long!" ”
I'm all missing, and you're still chubby.
"Huh?" Stinky boy, the anger is also a little bigger, if it weren't for you, I could have been taken to Yangzhou by a kidnapper? also asked the king of Naqi to see the whole process of his transformation, and now he has to beat a rake: "Hmph, in this case, what are you doing here with me." ”
"I ...... It's uncomfortable, the concubine in the house cries to me every day, I want to run when I look at it, and Uncle Liuhuang is sick again, and he can't see me, so I have to come to you. ”
So pitiful!
"Then I'll make you something to eat."
"Okay."
Sure enough, the grievances of foodies can only be settled by eating.
"I would like to stay here for a few days...... I don't have to worry about my guards. ”
"This ......" Shen Qiutan hesitated a little.
