Chapter 16 The meaning of the prince's surprise visit is unknown
Shu Fangyin, who knelt in the ancestral hall for a day, was extremely uncomfortable at this time, although she was a concubine, but she was also pampered since she was a child, when she had been crying like this, she was also in a hurry, and when she heard someone walking outside, she thought that someone was coming to give her something, and she didn't just look like she was sincerely repentant and cried in the ancestral hall.
According to her expectations, when Zhou or Shu Manyin receives the message, they will definitely not be able to sit still, come over as soon as possible and release themselves, when the time comes, she will be playing an affectionate scene, not only can she successfully cover up this matter, but also leave an impression in the hearts of her subordinates that a housewife and concubine treat themselves harshly.
It's just that she didn't expect that most of the day had passed, and why no one had come over. In order to play more realistically, she has not eaten all day, which will not only be hungry and thirsty, but also her knees are even more painful, there is nothing in this ancestral hall to keep warm from the cold, this Shu Fangyin hugged her arms, and she was very anxious in the cold ancestral hall.
"Master, I punished the second girl to kneel in the ancestral hall for two days, it will be cold, so let's send someone to send a stove." Zhou is soft-hearted after all, although she said that she was punished, she couldn't help but worry after the punishment.
"You, you're just soft-hearted, isn't it just kneeling in an ancestral hall, it's not a big deal, your lord and I also knelt when I was young, there's nothing to worry about." Shu Zhen returned to the house, and after eating, he knew about the punishment of the second girl, and asked him to say, Mrs. This is a light punishment.
"The master is a man, he is not afraid, no matter how the second girl says that she is still a girl, I can't bear it." Zhou continued.
"What are you worried about, what do I have to stand up to, if you don't punish her, and play some tricks next time, you can't cure her?" Although Shu Zhenyuan's heart was also distressed, he knew even more that if he didn't twist his temperament at this time, it would be difficult to manage it in the future.
"But, but."
"Don't be, ma'am, it's not too early this day, and we should rest early." Shu Zhenyuan softened his voice and coaxed, but received a gentle look from Zhou.
Aunt Feng has been standing in her courtyard, looking at the direction of the ancestral hall, very uneasy, Pingyu put on a robe behind her: "Auntie, don't worry, it's not too late to wait for the second lady to be released from the punishment tomorrow." ”
Aunt Feng grabbed her robe with one hand and turned sideways: "Where can I put my mind at ease, although the second lady said that I was very angry, but after all, she came out of my belly, how can a mother not worry about her children." ”
"Auntie." Pingyu stood in the courtyard and accompanied her for a while, and then Aunt Feng turned around and went back to her yard, but the light in the back room was on until dawn.
Early the next morning, the ancestral hall sent someone over, saying that the second lady fainted in the ancestral hall due to physical exhaustion, Zhou learned the news and hurried to the ancestral hall, at this time Shu Fangyin had been rescued and woken up, and Aunt Feng also arrived when Zhou arrived, seeing Shu Fangyin's pale face and pitiful appearance, she was not distressed.
As soon as Zhou saw this scene, he didn't say anything to continue the punishment, as soon as Shu Fangyin woke up and saw Zhou, she struggled to kneel up again, kowtowed to Zhou, and her voice was weak: "Mother, I know my mistake, I beg my mother to forgive." ”
Zhou sighed and hurriedly instructed his subordinates: "Quickly help the second lady up." After a pause, he continued: "Second girl, it's best if you know that you are wrong, and your mother doesn't mean to punish you, but no matter what you do in the future, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you must not shame the house because of your temperament." After all, it is a child who has been hurt by himself for many years, and Zhou's nature is also good, so he can't see such an appearance, so he waved his hand and asked Shu Fangyin to help him back to the yard, and invited a doctor, so that people could wait for him.
After doing this, Aunt Feng bit her lip and didn't make a sound, until she saw that the second lady was indeed fine, and Aunt Feng knelt down behind Zhou: "Thank you, concubine, madam." ”
Zhou helped Aunt Feng up from the ground: "Don't thank me, it's also that I didn't think it through, leaving a girl's family to spend the night in the ancestral hall, and I can't bear to see the second girl like this." ”
"The concubine body is saved, the second lady's temperament is spoiled by the concubine's body, and the concubine body will definitely discipline her more in the future." Aunt Feng said.
"Okay, let's talk about the future later, you can go to my yard and bring some supplements to the yard to see her." Zhou said a little tiredly.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Shu Zhenyuan went to the early dynasty early in the morning, and he would not know what happened at home. After Shu Manyin heard about the ancestral hall, she snorted lightly, she knew that Shu Fangyin would not be honest and would eventually escape punishment, but she didn't have any hope of how much she could be punished in this matter, so she just laughed when she heard the news.
It is said that Shu Fangyin came out of the ancestral hall and was sent to the courtyard, and the doctor came to see it, but her body was not supported, and she was frightened and frightened, so she fainted, and prescribed some medicine to make her recover after two days.
Aunt Feng, who was on the side, was relieved to see that there was no big problem, and hurriedly asked Pingyu to send the doctor out of the courtyard and gave some hard money, and then sat on the edge of Shu Fangyin's bed with tears in her eyes.
"You're worried about your aunt." Aunt Feng wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "Don't be so willful and reckless in the future, you know?" ”
"Auntie, don't worry, I know it's wrong." Shu Fangyin returned weakly.
"That's good, my aunt watched you drink the medicine and go back, you have to rest first, you have to take care of yourself these days, but you can't fall into the root of the disease."
"Yes, got it." Shu Fangyin drank the medicine, watched Aunt Feng cover her with the quilt, and then turned around and went out, the essence in her eyes flashed.
"A few of you are waiting for the second lady, don't be careless." Aunt Feng instructed the people in the courtyard to go up and down.
"Yes, auntie." A few girls will not slack off.
After a while, Mama Tian pushed open the door and entered the back room. Shu Fangyin, who was closing her eyes and recuperating, opened her eyes and saw that it was Mama Tian who came over, and hurriedly sat up straight, looking like a person who fainted due to physical exhaustion.
"Lie down, girl, you still have to do it like this, don't let people look at it and fall into the handle." Mama Tian stepped forward and re-covered Shu Fangyinyou's quilt.
"Thanks to Mama for bringing me food in the middle of the night last night, and making me pretend to faint to avoid punishment." Shu Fangyin's face was grateful.
"Girl, don't say that, the old slave can't afford it, this is what the old slave should consider for the girl." Mama Tian pondered for a moment and continued: "When the old slave passed last night, I saw a little maid sneakily hanging over there, and when I saw the old slave passing, I was so frightened that I hid, but the old slave didn't see who it was. ”
"Whoever else is from the east." Shu Fangyin didn't even think about it: "By the way, Mama, I deliberately made a game last night, why didn't it work later." ”
"Back to the girl's words, the original girl's bureau played a role, but not long after it was covered by the rumors that the girl made a big fuss about the eldest lady's room, and when the old slave went to the dining room to get food, he also heard those mothers-in-law discussing the matter."
"It's you again, Shu Manyin!" Shu Fangyin gritted her teeth.
Shu Manyin, who was chattered by her, was stunned by the news from the front hall at this time, and a big man suddenly came to the mansion - the Nine Princes, Mo Jinyu.
Shu Zhenyuan went to the Shang Dynasty early in the morning, and only the Zhou family in this mansion could receive Mo Jinyu, Shu Manyin was really shocked when she heard the news, she had no intersection with Mo Jinyu in her past life and this life, and Shu Mansion had no intersection with Mo Jinyu.
Zhou was also confused at this time, she was looking at the details of the accounts everywhere, and suddenly heard the porter say that the ninth prince had arrived, and Zhou hurriedly collected it and came out to greet him, but the ninth prince did not say anything except to say hello to himself, but just visited the front hall for a while, and then sat on the side and drank tea.
Zhou's heart was worried, and the afterglow of his eyes secretly caught a glimpse of the "Loyal and Brave" rewarded by the Nine Princes hanging in the main hall, and the rest was even more inappropriate, but the Nine Princes sat here and didn't say a word, which really made her feel uneasy.
"I don't know what happened when the Nine Princes came today?" The Zhou family is also a first-class lady, and there is no shortage of gifts and ceremonial equipment.
After waiting for a while, just when Zhou thought that he would not answer according to the temperament of the Nine Princes, the Nine Princes opened his mouth slowly: "This king heard that yesterday the old lady's birthday, Shu Mansion was very lively, this king was riddled with miscellaneous things and could not come, today is just to come to the door to express some thoughts." ”
Zhou's heart was shocked, what does the Nine Princes mean by this? Could it be that the banquet held by Shu Mansion is extravagant? Or are you worried that Shufu has formed a gang and beckoned your eyes?
"The prince is serious, the old lady has been worshipping the Buddha for a long time and returning home, and the birthday is a little lively, but it is just for the old man to be happy, which really makes us uneasy to alarm the nine princes." What Zhou said is very vague, although I have invited more people to hold a birthday banquet in Shufu, but it is not against the rules at all, and she believes that if the Nine Princes want to know, they will definitely know that yesterday's birthday was done with two things, so that her family has been greatly restricted.
"Madame, don't think about it." The Nine Princes are also self-aware, and they know that their sudden visit will be feared by ordinary people for a long time, so he also directly expressed his attitude, and then the guard Rong Kang behind him handed the gift prepared by the Nine Princes to the Zhou family.
"This king just came to see, the Marquis of An Guo is a loyal minister of our dynasty, and he has made great contributions to the imperial brother, and this king should come over to express his heart. Now that the heart has been delivered, the king will return to the house and ask his wife to stay. ”
"Thank you, Lord Nine." This gift was also given suddenly, and the Zhou family didn't know what it meant for a while, so he could only accept the gift, walked to the door of the mansion and watched the Nine Princes come and leave suddenly, leaving only the gift in his hand I don't know what it means.
When Zhou returned to the main hall, Shu Manyin also appeared from behind the curtain, looking at the gift in Zhou's hand, and was also puzzled: "Mother, what does the Ninth Prince mean?" ”
"You girl, why don't you have the rules, hide behind the curtain and eavesdrop." Zhou couldn't help but sigh coquettishly.
"Mother, the Ninth Prince suddenly came to visit, I felt strange, I was in a hurry, and I asked my mother for forgiveness."
Zhou Shi waved her hand, and she didn't really get angry: "I can't figure it out either, this looks like Xingshi is asking for guilt, but if this is really asking for guilt, he won't bring a courtesy, the Nine Princes are acting perversely, and they are really unpredictable." ”
