Chapter 159: Two Siblings
Song Zhi accompanied Song Tian to return to the palace after lunch, and as soon as he stepped out of the carriage, he saw Uncle Cui standing at the door, obviously waiting for her.
Seeing that Song Zhi was back, Uncle Cui greeted him a little anxiously and said to Song Zhi: "Madam, someone came to the palace in the morning, but you and the prince didn't tell the people below when they went out, and the old slave didn't know where you went." The people in the palace waited for two hours before leaving, and the old slave looked at it as if he was angry. ”
Shen Baiyan did not suppress the matter of Yinhua, so it was expected that someone from the palace would come.
The servants in the prince's palace ate the zongzi rewarded by the palace, and died violently. It's hard to make people do more than they can reverie!
"I'll come as I say, who can blame the master if he doesn't have it?" Song Zhi's tone sounded very calm, and his expression seemed to be unconcerned.
Uncle Cui was a little puzzled, but when he saw that his master had an idea in his heart, he hesitated and stopped, bowed and retreated.
The people in Song Zhi's courtyard actually knew his whereabouts, and they quietly reported it to Song Zhi, but Song Zhi didn't take it very seriously.
"Madam, is it okay for us to snub the people in the palace like this?" Water chestnut asked quietly.
"Isn't it sluggish? We haven't said anything yet, the people in the palace are afraid of themselves, and the people who came here can't sit still after waiting for two hours, even if they go back to complain, they have to take a few boards first. Song Zhi and the water chestnut were talking, when they suddenly saw a group of ducklings swaying past, and there were two maids trotting behind them.
"Ma'am." The two maids hurriedly blessed themselves and continued to chase the ducklings.
Song Zhi and water chestnut were confused, only to see the meteor walk out of the gate of the courtyard, with a helpless smile, and said: "Miss woke up from a nap, the slave maid wanted to take Miss to see the ducks, the net by the lake didn't know when a hole was broken, and the ducklings escaped from the hole, Miss was happy, but I pity these two girls, I don't know when I will catch this group of ducks." ”
Song Zhi's mood was a little more relaxed, but she went back to the house to play with Man'er for a while, and then another incident came.
"Sister-in-law is really a rare guest." Song Zhi looked at Zhang Huilan in front of him, and was very stunned.
"The princess is willing to call me sister-in-law, and the people are really overjoyed." Zhang Huilan has a string of glossy Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist, which should always be coiled in the palm of her hand.
"What did you do today?" Although Zhang Huilan and Song Zhi have no grievances, she is Song Jian's nominal wife after all, and Song Zhi still doesn't want to have too much to do with her.
Zhang Huilan involuntarily took down the Buddha beads and fiddled with two, a calm and watery style of cultivating Buddhism, but the words that came out of her mouth did not have that unearthly taste.
"Can the princess let Yan'er go?"
Song Zhi almost laughed out loud when she heard this, she looked at Zhang Huilan coldly, and said, "It's ridiculous, Zhang, do you know what you're talking about?" ”
Zhang Huilan stayed in the house all the year round, relying on a few acres of fields and shops under Song Jian's name, and lived a stable life.
After all, she is clinging to what Song Jian left behind, and she will send Song Yan some silver money from time to time, Song Yan clutches the only life-saving straw tightly, and the relationship between the two is closer than before.
She saw that Song Zhi's face was not good, and it seemed that she only realized now that her nominal sister was a seemingly docile but extremely difficult to mess with.
What's more, Song Zhi's current status is precious, and he doesn't have to be back then.
Zhang Huilan realized it later, but finally knew that she was afraid, so she quickly got up and knelt down, and said in a panic: "The people's daughter lost her words for a while, please forgive the princess." ”
Song Zhi lowered his eyes and looked at her, without saying a word, he just turned his head to the meteor behind him and said, "Send off." ”
Zhang Huilan climbed the body of the meteor, refused to go out, and begged: "Princess, the people's daughter is wrong. Folk girl, please help Yan'er. She had a hard time. ”
"What does it have to do with me? The Song family did not have a daughter who was a concubine, not to mention, her name was no longer on the genealogy. Song Zhi looked at Zhang Huilan and said, "I'm still quite curious, why did you suddenly become so close to her." ”
Zhang Huilan is also innocent in the end, and said honestly: "The shop in the name of the husband was originally intended for my sister." But my sister has been handed over to me to take care of, and now I can have no worries about food and clothing, and I also rely on her generosity. ”
Song Zhi showed a look that seemed to be smiling, and she said slowly: "If you don't say it, I forgot." Song Jian and Song Yan's mother's family is poor, where did they come from? Those are just that Daddy remembered the kindness of their two grandfathers, so he didn't want to come back. Have you ever seen the deed of ownership, the deed of sale of the long-term worker in the shop? ”
Zhang Huilan was completely stupid, the worry-free food and clothing she thought was originally built on a thin layer of ice, which could be broken at any time, and she would fall into the mud.
Zhang Huilan looked at Song Zhi at a loss, and tugged at the corner of the meteor's skirt like a headless fly.
Song Zhi saw her pitiful appearance of six gods and no master, and was silent for a moment before saying, "I won't be so stingy and cut off your livelihood." But Zhang, you should also have a long brain, they all say that eating people has a short mouth, you now know whose food you eat, right? ”
Zhang Huilan didn't dare to speak, only nodded again and again.
"Why did you come to beg me to let Song Yan go? I don't even want to hear this person's name, so how can I bother? It's inexplicable. Song Zhi didn't want to entangle with Zhang Huilan more, but the sewage on his body couldn't be splashed by others.
Zhang Huilan still looked like she was in the clouds, but she already knew how powerful Song Zhi was, and said cautiously: "Yan'er said that it was you who ruined her reputation and caused her to be in such a situation in the Zhang family." ”
"Fart!" Meteor was annoyed for a moment, and blurted out foul language. "I'm shameless, I'm embarrassed to rely on others, and it's just a clay head like you that she will believe whatever she says!"
Zhang Huilan was scolded by Meteor and didn't dare to fight back, and heard Song Zhi ask: "Song Yan instructed you to come today?" ”
Zhang Huilan subconsciously shook her head and said, "It's just that I got her letter yesterday, saying that I was really miserable in the Zhang family and wanted to come out." The folk girl made her own opinion, thinking that you had used some means. ”
'Yesterday? Writing a letter to Zhang Huilan again, and reporting to the Lin family, why is she so anxious? Song Zhi thought about it.
Zhang Huilan didn't dare to raise her eyes to look at Song Zhi, she was scolded by the meteor just now, and only curled up in a ball in fear, tightly clutching the string of Buddhist beads in her hand.
The tassels on the Buddha beads are Zhang Huilan's favorite lilac color, which has faded by three percent of the color, and has not been replaced, but he is still a nostalgic person.
Song Zhi glanced at the meteor, and the meteor understood, helped Zhang Huilan up, and said, "I'll send you out." ”
Zhang Huilan breathed a sigh of relief, and she was very grateful in her heart, only to hear the meteor whispering in her ear: "In the future, An Ansheng will be born, and you will not have to worry about food and clothing, if you talk a lot and talk a lot, you know the end." ”
Zhang Huilan nodded with a stiff neck, the whole person was completely untenable, and almost fell into the arms of the servant.
Meteor looked at Zhang Huilan's back as he was being helped to leave, snorted disdainfully, and said in his heart, "I have never seen such a dizzy person." ’
Meteor was about to go back to the room, when she suddenly saw a figure flashing by, she only glanced at it, and she also recognized that this person was water chestnut, it must be Song Zhi who asked the water chestnut to go out on errands.
"I don't know why this girl is flying around all day long, why is she still fatter?" When Meteor was muttering to herself, she saw that Rosin Xiang came with the food she had prepared for Song Zhi, so she stepped forward to take it and sent it to Song Zhi.
Song Zhi was standing by the window when he saw the maid catch the last duckling and come back.
"Madam, why are you standing by the window blowing the wind instead of looking at you month by month? I think even if she gets married, she will not be at ease. Meteor put the bird's nest on the table and said to Song Zhi.
Song Zhi was very annoyed, but he still barely pulled out half a smile and said: "Seeing that the month-by-month wedding date is approaching, and there are so many things that have happened these days, I don't have the heart to clean up for her." ”
Meteor took out a small bowl of bird's nest from the soup cup and handed it to Song Zhi, saying, "Someone will do these things, Madam has already ordered it, so many dowries can be said to be a great grace." Others don't know how envious they are. ”
"This is what you two deserve, and there is no such thing as grace or grace." Song Zhi pinched Meteor's cheek, took a small sip of the bird's nest.
Meteor smiled sweetly and said, "Madame uses less, so I don't miss dinner." ”
"It's fine." Song Zhi took another sip and said, "The prince will probably come back late today, and I will have dinner with him at that time." ”
As Song Zhi said, Shen Baiyan didn't return to the palace until after dinner.
Shen Baiyan came out after bathing, and saw that Song Zhi had already asked people to prepare two bowls of fish porridge and a few dishes of side dishes, the fish porridge was fresh and glutinous, and the side dishes were refreshing, Shen Baiyan didn't feel hungry yet, but at this time he couldn't help swallowing it.
Song Zhi slowly ate the porridge, and when he noticed Shen Baiyan looking at him, he glanced at him.
"What's wrong? Look at the preoccupied look. Shen Baiyan saw at a glance that something was wrong with Song Zhi and asked.
Song Zhi told Shen Baiyan about today's events, Shen Baiyan took a bite of fish porridge, swallowed it, and then said: "Restless people are always restless, and both of them are like this. ”
"What's wrong with Song Blade?" Song Zhi asked.
"He has contacted the old ministry of the Eighth Prince, and he has not yet found out his motives." Shen Baiyan said.
"Isn't it to take his sister away?" Song Zhi said.
"Isn't that a big fuss?" Shen Baiyan asked rhetorically, and said, "If you say that you will take Song Yan away by the way, it is not impossible." ”
"Let's wait for this girl to come back. I asked her to check on Song Yan. Song Zhi said, put down his chopsticks, glanced out the window, and said, "This girl hasn't come back yet." ”
"It's going to be a little tricky, or maybe I'm going back to find a helper, don't worry, eat it." Shen Baiyan was still somewhat sure of the water chestnut skills, so he was not in a hurry.
