022 Uncle Shen Yao
The second master was so anxious that he rubbed his hands.
At the beginning, the Shen family's crime was "privately manufacturing weapons and armor", which was a major crime of rebellion. Although according to the custom, the sin is not as good as the marriage daughter, he was still in fear at that time. In addition, he and the Shen family are already on the same page, and quarrels occur from time to time.
There was Aunt Liu fanning the flames on the side, and Du Min and Mrs. Du secretly fueling the troubles, and the second master took Du Mingxin as a threat, and asked the Shen family to make a decision on his own. He deliberately delayed outside for a long time, and only then did he ask someone to go in to collect the body, and Shen's entire body was already stiff at that time.
Although Mrs. Du hated her son for being ruthless, she was already in the boat. He only ordered Mama Cui to take care of Du Mingxin, and sold the other people who served the Shen family. As for Aunt Geng, she is the spoils of the second master's provocation to the Shen family, how can the second master be willing to drive her away?
"Marrying my sister into the Huining Mansion, we still have one or two of Shen Yao's capital. If you marry someone else, it's strange if you don't step on us to tie Shen Yao! The eldest master glared at the second master, this younger brother is stupid and confused, and he still wants to eat alone, how can there be such a good thing in the world!
Seeing that the second brother was loose, Du Min couldn't help but have a hint of hope, she said tentatively: "Second brother, if you don't marry your sister to our brother Huan'er, it's closer than marrying your sister-in-law's family......"
The eldest lady said in a weird manner: "What my sister-in-law said is not right, this is not close, not only to see the bloodline, but also to see the relatives, right?" What did you do to your younger siblings in the first place, there are not one or two people in this house who know! Besides, if you want to marry Sister Xin to Brother Huan, you also have to see if Sister Xin is willing or not, right? I still remember how Brother Huan'er offended Sister Xin a few days ago! ”
"Unless you come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, Ming'er carries Sister Xin'er with a sedan chair. If you don't wait for Xingguo Gong to come to the door, you will be disappointed in your abacus! ”
Several people were noisy in the main house, and Mrs. Du only sat on the kang and smoked a hookah. She can't tell what it's like in her heart, probably because of the loss of finding that many things are out of her control when she gets old.
She asked the boss, the eldest daughter-in-law and her daughter several times before, and what she heard was nothing more than wanting to count on the little incense between the Shen family and the royal family, but she had never heard of any other Xingguo Gong!
Thinking about the Shen family, Mrs. Du was not worried about what Shen Yao would do to her, after all, she still occupied the identity of an elder. But where the Du family will go in the future, it will fall on Du Mingxin, the widowed eldest daughter, which really makes her very unhappy.
Two days later, the emperor took hundreds of officials to the outside of the city to welcome the queen mother into the palace. In the afternoon, Shen Yao, the Duke of Xingguo, boarded the door of Du's mansion.
The eldest lord came to the door when he saw that he had just handed over the errand in the palace, which showed that he attached great importance to Du Mingxin, and he was extremely happy. The second master was a little more worried, for fear that Shen Yao would turn over the old accounts and settle accounts with him.
The two took Du Kai to the gate in a panic to greet them, but found that there were two rows of expressionless soldiers standing on both sides of the alley, and the three of them were so frightened that the tendons on their legs and stomachs turned.
In the shadow of the gatehouse, a cold voice came: "Which one is the second master of the Du family?" ”
The three of them were taken aback, and when they looked closely, they found a young man in his twenties sitting on a large circle chair with his back light.
"I, I am." The second master's voice trembled slightly.
Suddenly, the sound of a whip twitching came to his face, and the second master was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a puff, and shouted in his mouth: "Xingguo Gong spares his life!" Grandpa Guo spares his life! ”
Shen Yao's heart was desolate, father, father, why did you marry your sister to such a person in the first place?
He sneered: "Just now a fly flew in front of the second master, I'll help you clean it up." ”
Everyone looked down, and sure enough, there was a dead fly at the feet of the second master, and they couldn't help but be secretly frightened. The whip can make such a sharp sound in a short distance, and the force is so great. However, Shen Yao was able to retract and release freely, killing the flies without hurting the second master at all.
"Xingguo Gong's martial arts are outstanding, admire, admire!" The eldest man smiled awkwardly and kicked his younger brother who was still kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.
Shen Yao swept the Du family's faces one by one with disdain, and said coldly, "Take me to see my sister's daughter." ”
Sister's daughter...... The eldest lord led the way with his waist in front of him, pondering this title. Did Shen Yao want to clear up the relationship between Du Mingxin and the Du family?
In the main courtyard, the maids and ladies were all instructed, and they stood under the eaves of the corridor with their hands bowed in an orderly manner. But when Shen Yao, who had a cold expression, came in with two fierce and vicious soldiers, he couldn't help but tremble one by one.
The curtain was raised, and everyone in the room stood up except for Mrs. Du. Shen Yao stepped in, swept around the female dependents in the house, and recognized Du Mingxin at a glance.
"Sister Xin'er......" He looked at his niece, who was seven or eight points like his sister, and his eyes were slightly red.
Because she learned the cause of her mother's death two days ago, Du Mingxin cried for two days, and her eyes were a little red and swollen. "How's your uncle?"
"Okay, I'm fine."
The eldest master was about to introduce the people in the house to Shen Yao with a smile, but he pulled Du Mingxin out of the main room.
"What is Xingguo Gong doing?" The eldest lord chased after him and asked.
Shen Yao stopped and asked, "Talk to my niece." Why, do you need to ask the old man what he means first? ”
"Well, of course not. Grandpa Guo, please take care of yourself. The old man laughed wryly.
was dragged out of the main courtyard, Du Mingxin saw that Shen Yao didn't know where to go, so he smiled and said, "Why don't you go to my uncle and sit there?" ”
Shen Yao nodded and replied, "Okay."
There was a fire burning in the house, and there was a bottle of red plum on the kang table, and hot tea was in his hand, and Shen Yao's tense nerves relaxed. All the way from Shaanxi to escort the Queen Mother into Beijing, as soon as the palace etiquette ended, he arrived at Du's house. Seeing the cunning fox appearance of the eldest master, and then looking at the second master's obscene cowardice, Shen Yao's heart was as disgusting as eating a fly.
"How is the Du family treating you?" As soon as the words came out, Shen Yao shook his head again and said, "Forget it, if you don't say it, I'll find out." ”
Du Mingxin pursed his lips and smiled, but did not speak.
"Are they betrothed to you?"
Du Ming thought for a moment and said, "Yesterday, the prince of Ning Bo came to the house, and I heard that he came to change Gengti. ”
"Hui Ningbo?" Shen Yao thought about it, it must be the old man of the Zhou Dynasty who is going to come to the upstart. "Would you like to? If you don't want to, I'll help you refuse. ”
Du Ming's heart is much more steady, and the care in his uncle's eyes and words cannot be faked. She was moved in her heart, looked up and smiled: "I don't really want to." I know what they are thinking. I don't want to marry such a family affair and embarrass my uncle in the future. ”
Shen Yao waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not very difficult, it's not embarrassing." You only need to think about the same when you get married, whether you like it or not. You can't be as ...... as your mother again."
At the end of the day, there was only sighing.
