Chapter 204: Vanity
The old man's soul fled in a hurry.
Shen Hao was exhausted, collapsed to the "ground", and then, groggily, slept for a day and a night.
When she woke up again, she felt her mouth dry and her throat hoarse.
It was the fourth watch outside, and the six slaves who were guarding her were still the six slaves.
The sixth slave carefully brought water to her throat, looked at her with respect and awe, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, are you having nightmares again?" ”
Shen Hao chuckled in his heart.
What I said to Abel this time, but it's best not to let the six slaves hear it......
"Huh? I don't know, I'm just very tired and my throat hurts......" Shen Hao gave a vague answer, no matter how you explain it, it makes sense.
The six slaves sighed and said in a low voice: "Miss, you have been reciting the scriptures in the middle of the night, can you not have a sore throat......
"Chanting?!" Shen Hao's eyes widened, and he pointed back to his nose, "Me? When you fall asleep, you say that you are chanting scriptures in your dreams?! ”
The six slaves nodded: "Yes." The slave and maid can probably tell that it is the Diamond Sutra. ”
Ignorantly helped up by the six slaves to freshen up, Shen Hao thought for a while, and then hesitated: "Could it be that the Buddha fainted in the temple this time, because the Buddha wanted to enlighten me?" ”
The six slaves laughed out loud: "Miss! If the Buddha wants to enlighten you, he will also choose a nunnery! ”
Seeing Shen Hao sticking out her tongue at herself in the mirror delicately, the six slaves relaxed and whispered to her: "You talk about your dreams, the slave didn't tell others, don't say it." Otherwise, the old lady and the lady may not be worried! Oh, there's an old lady now...... If the old lady knows, I'm afraid I'm going to find trouble with the Great Mercy and Grace Temple......"
Shen Hao also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
This six slaves are too detailed! It's good to serve yourself wholeheartedly, otherwise, it's really not so easy to fool!
"I'll go to the kitchen now and ask them to quietly get you something to eat. You wait a minute. The six slaves poured hot tea and handed it to Shen Hao, who had finished grooming, and watched her sit on the couch obediently and nodded, before leaving with confidence.
The yellowed candlelight in the room is windless and automatic, swaying gently.
Shen Hao sat on the bed, his heavy gaze on the window that had been slightly white.
It's a strange world she didn't know anything about, a real world where she has grown to feel a sense of belonging.
Maybe in last night's dream, when I talked to Abel, it was still extremely illusory because of folding, returning, backtracking, and jumping.
But at this moment, when she felt the touch of the gentle fingers of the six slaves between her scalp and hair, she clearly felt that herself, Shen Hao, this body, this woman who merged the split personality of the previous life, the remnant soul of the original owner, and part of the soul of Abo, really existed in this time and space.
In this time and space, there are people she respects, loves, admires, and doesn't want to watch them die tragically.
She will do everything she can to fight and fight for these people, even if it is bloody and give everything!
Shen Hao lowered his head and looked at the white porcelain teacup in his hand, where the golden tea soup rippled.
The corners of her mouth curled.
All appearances are vain?
What I want is that all these appearances will be vain and beautiful!
……
……
Shen Heng's courtyard for the second room is in the Lizheng Square in the southeast of Chang'an, close to Yanxing Gate, with two roads and three entrances, and the place is not small.
There were three or four of the original sprinklers and sweepers, the ones sent by Mrs. Wei, the ones sent by Shen Gong, and the servants who served each person in the second room, a total of thirty or forty people, and a courtyard did not seem deserted.
Shen Xi didn't say a word, and looked coldly at Old Bao's happy eyebrows, Shen Gong was satisfied, Shen Xinzhi was greedy and covetous, and Feng was worried, but he turned his head and asked Jiao's mother: "Where should I live?" ”
Mother Jiao glanced at Feng Shi and said in a low voice, "Miss naturally lives with Madame." Let's wait. ”
Chickens and dogs jumped all the way, making noise and yelling.
By the time everything was cleared up and the masters could sit down in the main courtyard and have a reunion dinner, it was already three days later.
Shen Gong and Lao Bao looked proud, and asked Feng and Shen Xi, Shen Pei, and Aunt Lian to change their names on the spot, and then ordered everyone in the family to call them old lady, and they were not allowed to say the words of half of the aunt and grandmother.
Shen Xi was bored, couldn't bear it anymore, and asked out loud: "I just don't know, when will this aunt and grandmother be the old lady's banquet?" How big is the pendulum? Who are you invited? ”
Feng Shi hurriedly stopped her with a look in his eyes.
Shen Gong happily began to discuss with Shen Xinzhi on this topic.
Old Bao's face was flushed, and he was so proud that he didn't know what to do. At one time, he ordered someone to heat the food, one time he ordered someone to heat the wine, and at the other time, he ordered someone to prepare the sobering soup and snacks, and at the same time he said that it was hot, and ordered to fan Shen Gong and Shen Xinzhi's father and son.
Feng Shi and Shen Xi glanced at each other and simply retreated.
Shen Gong looked at Feng's face: "This is the first major event in the family, and it needs you to take care of it, how can you go?" "Because he ordered someone to send Shen Xi back to rest.
Forsythia accompanied Shen Xi back to the room.
Shen Xi stood at the door, looked coldly at the cold decoration in the room, and asked, "What about my pair of passionflower vases?" ”
Forsythia lowered her head and whispered, "The old lady said that she lacked a pair of ...... in the house."
"What about the four bamboo-woven grass insect screens that Shen Hao gave me?"
"Old lady......"
"Where's the Konghou that my mother bought me? She can't play, so she won't take it too, right? Shen Xi's face was already terrifyingly gloomy.
Forsythia's voice was inaudible: "I said that I would pick up the eldest lady in a few days......"
Hehe......
She can't wait to cultivate her own power at home......
"Where's Mother Jiao?" Shen Xi walked straight into the inner room, and Forsythia hurriedly followed her in to change her clothes, remove her hair, and clean her face.
He replied in a low voice: "When I first came out, I told Miss to rest first, and she would come over as soon as she was done." ”
Shen Xi's heart calmed down a little, and he sighed, and said, "Tea." ”
Forsythia hurriedly raised his voice and said, "Serve hot tea." ”
For a long time, no one agreed.
Shen Xiyin's compassionate gaze lifted and glanced at Forsythia.
Forsythia only felt a shiver in his heart, and hurriedly bent his knees: "Slave maid go and take a look." Hurriedly ran out, but saw that even a rough little girl was missing in the yard, only a few daughters-in-law gathered in the corner of the yard and whispered and laughed with melon seeds.
It's simply, there is no royal law!
"Don't you know who lives in the house? Have you eaten the bear's heart and leopard's gall? Dare to snub Miss! If you don't get all the people you serve back, why should you go? "Forsythia is fierce.
A few daughters-in-law ignored them, sneered, and just as they were about to speak, they heard Shen Xi's cold voice coming from the house: "I lost a hundred yuan in my room." Forsythia, go and tell the old lady that these daughters-in-law have been sold to their families and compensate me. ”
