Chapter 166: Jingshu Arrives (Pink Ticket 780 Plus Update)
Shen Zhen changed into a brand-new royal blue Wufu holding longevity makeup flowers and saw Shi Jingshu directly.
Shi Jingshu greeted Shen Zhen according to the etiquette of her niece and said hello.
Shen Zhen invited her to sit on the Taishi chair at the bottom.
Shen Muqing personally served her tea,
Shen Zhen asked Shi Zimo about his current situation: "What time do you get up every morning?" Did you use the rice well? Is there any place where you feel uncomfortable ......"
Shi Jingshu respectfully answered them one by one, asked Shen Zhen about his physical condition, and finally took a letter to Shen Zhen: "Grandfather asked me to give it to my uncle." ”
Shen Zhen accepted the letter, and said a few kind words to Shi Jingshu, "Don't be restrained, be the same as your own home", and asked Shen Muqing to take her to the Green Pothos Courtyard.
Shi Jingshu liked the elegant layout in the pothos courtyard very much, Shen Muqing asked the rough mother-in-law of the pothos courtyard to come to Shi Jingshu to ask for peace, and led her back and forth to walk around, Mother Liu came over with the cage, everyone greeted each other, agreed on the time for dinner, and Shen Muqing said goodbye - I had to leave the space to Shi Jingshu's master and servant.
As soon as she walked out of the pothos courtyard, Aunt Chen hurriedly walked over.
Shen Muqing was stunned, and Aunt Chen had already attached her ears. said: "Master, please go to the study quickly." ”
She didn't know what was going on, so she followed Aunt Chen to the study.
A letter was spread out in front of the large bookcase in the study, and Shen Zhen was pacing in the room with a heavy face.
Seeing Shen Muqing coming in, he commanded in a deep voice. Aunt Chen: "Let everyone go outside and keep guard, no summons, no entry." ”
Aunt Chen was stunned, answered "yes", and sent the little maid who served in the house. He helped Shen Zhen's father and daughter close the door of the study and guard the outside of the courtyard.
Shen Muqing looked at this formation and panicked. As soon as Aunt Chen left, she was anxious. He asked anxiously, "Master, what happened?" ”
Shen Zhen didn't make a sound, and pointed to the letter on the painting case: "Jingshu brought it, you can take a look." ”
Shen Muqing took three steps and. I walked to the drawing case in two steps, picked up the letter and read it.
The letter was written by Shi Zimo to Shen Zhen. The main content is that she was not thoughtful for a while, and encouraged Shi Jingshu to read and write articles, so that she delayed her life. Now that he is old, Shi Jingshu is still alone, so he wants to entrust Shi Jingshu to Shen Zhen and ask Shen Zhen to leave Shi Jingshu in Kyoto and not return to Nanjing. If you can, it's best to help find a good family to marry, and it can be regarded as a lifelong trust. If there is really no suitable one, please ask Shen Zhen to marry Shi Jingshu before her death, so that she will have a place to worship the tablet after a hundred years.
The words in the letter were earnest and sad, and at a glance I knew that it was written in a very sad mood.
Not only that, but there is also a "manual" in the letter with Shi Zimo's fingerprint and private seal. said that he entrusted Shi Jingshu to Shen Zhen, and in the future, weddings and funerals will be decided by Shen Zhen, and no one from the Shi family is allowed to interfere.
Shen Muqing looked at Shen Zhen in astonishment.
Shen Zhen smiled bitterly: "What I was worried about really happened. ”
Shen Muqing felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and silently looked at Shi Zimo's letter, unable to say a word.
When she was in Nanjing, Shi Jingshu went in and out of a group of servants. Even if I wore men's clothes to the tea market, I also hugged the family and the little people...... No wonder this time, I only brought two personal maids and her nurse Mother Liu and a dozen cages.
"Mu Qing," Shen Zhen said thoughtfully, "I want to ask your opinion?" ”
Shen Muqing looked at Shen Zhen with some surprise.
"It's rare for you to fall in love!" Shen Zhen groaned, "And Jingshu is also a capable person. Leave her behind, and you'll have someone to keep you company ......"
It turned out that she was worried that she would not agree!
"I'm too worried." Shen Muqing smiled, "I just didn't expect that the people of the Shi family really can't tolerate Sister Jingshu......" There was already a bit of sighing in his tone, "As you said, if she can stay, I also have a companion." ”
Shen Zhen nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Then I'll reply to Lord Shi!" ”
Shen Muqing polished the ink for Shen Zhen, and after the letter was written, he personally instructed Zhou Baimu to send someone to deliver the letter.
Shen Zhen instructed her: "Don't say anything to Jingshu - Aunt Chen can't hear a little bit of wind from there." ”
Shen Muqing nodded.
Back to Tingyuxuan, she didn't breathe for a long time.
In the evening, Shen Zhen held a banquet in the flower hall to entertain Shi Jingshu.
Let's talk about the customs of Nanjing, interesting anecdotes about Kyoto, and the atmosphere is very warm.
Shen Muqing looked at Shen Zhen's silver-white sideburns and Shi Jingshu's fair and translucent face under the light, and secretly lowered his head.
After eating, Shen Muqing accompanied Shi Jingshu back to the Green Pothos Courtyard, but Shi Jingshu proposed to go to Shen Muqing's Tingyuxuan to rest the night.
When they were in Nanjing, the two often talked at night, not to mention that Shi Jingshu once wrote to her, saying that she would come to Kyoto to see if there was a suitable place to open a restaurant - she must have discussed herself for this.
Shen Muqing naturally readily agreed.
******
Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu were leaning on the big kang near the window, and the melon-shaped croissant lamp on the kang table shone brightly, shining on the faces of the two of them as smooth as mutton fat jade.
Shen Muqing took a shallow sip of the plain sweet white porcelain teacup, and said with a smile: "What good ideas does my sister have for opening a restaurant?" ”
is different from being serious and dignified in front of outsiders, Shi Jingshu in private is a lively and even a little playful. She smiled coquettishly, "What? Before I could sit down, you gave me a dismissal and asked me how to open a restaurant. Are you afraid that I know something? ”
Shen Muqing was stunned.
Could it be that Shi Jingshu guessed the content of Shi Zimo's letter?
She couldn't help but sweat profusely.
Shi Jingshu saw that Shen Muqing's face had changed greatly, and she had already covered her sleeves and smiled: "Tell me honestly, who are the shoes in Teng Ji for?" ”
So that's what I was talking about?
Shen Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, but two crimson blushes flew on her face that she didn't even feel herself: "What nonsense? Are those shoes made on a commissioned basis? The lord also knows! ”
"Oh! Oh! Oh! Shi Jingshu nodded solemnly, but her eyes were full of banter, "It turns out that the family also knows." ”
Shen Muqing's face couldn't help but be hot. She forced her composure: "Legitimate interactions, the family naturally knows!" ”
Shi Jingshu laughed: "When did I say that this matter was not legitimate?" ”
Shen Muqing consciously lost his words, and a look of chagrin flashed on his face.
Shi Jingshu already teased: "I also beg Uncle Shen to let you make me a few pairs of shoes." ”
"What does that matter?" Shen Muqing said stiffly, "Tell me, do you want to make flat embroidered shoes?" Or do you want to make high-altitude shoes? Because I don't have bound my feet, the maid in my house is the best at making shoes. After speaking, he bent down and picked up his embroidered shoes from the stepping foot in front of the kang, "Don't believe it, sister, take a look!" ”
Shi Jingshu laughed again, causing Ying Fan to pull the curtain and look in.
Shen Muqing scolded Xiao Sa in his heart.
Shi Jingshu looked at Shen Muqing with an uncomfortable look, the smile on her face gradually faded, and there was a glitter in her eyes: "Mu Qing, you are happier than me!" ”
Who is Shi Jingshu? He has been in charge of Nanjing's largest tea farm for six years, and he is shrewd and capable. If there was no change in the family, how could Shi Zimo push his favorite granddaughter to the Shen family for no reason? When she looked at it again, her eyes were sad...... Shen Muqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Sister Hugh wants to envy me." I don't know, I have a lot of troubles! ”
Shi Jingshu was amused by her: "Then tell me, what are your troubles?" ”
What are your troubles?
I'm afraid that one day Shen Zhen will be gone, and I won't have an umbrella? I'm afraid that one day Dashe will grow up and won't be able to tolerate this deviant sister? I'm afraid that one day the business will fail and the capital will be lost, and there will be no place to live...... In other words, they all feel lost and uncertain about the future. But these troubles of oneself are not Shi Jingshu's troubles!
How could Shen Muqing say it.
Especially when Shi Jingshu's worries all came true-the people of the Shi family had not abandoned Shi Jingshu and ignored them, after Shi Jingshu had dedicated herself to the development of the Shi family's tea farm for six years......
A look of uncertainty flashed across her face.
I didn't know how to open my mouth for the first time.
Shi Jingshu looked at her nervous appearance, and thought of the pair of men's cloth shoes she saw......
She looked at her, leaned over the kang table, and asked Shen Muqing softly, "Are you worried about the person who wears shoes?" ”
I didn't expect Shi Jingshu to guess like this......
Shen Muqing couldn't help but be embarrassed.
Shi Jingmei looked at her embarrassed appearance and thought she had guessed correctly. Cover your mouth and smile: "You tell me about it...... Three stinkers, can they still top Zhuge Liang? Perhaps, I have a solution to your troubles? ”
Shen Muqing wanted to speak and stopped.
"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret for you?" Ming Jingshu looked at Shen Muqing's eyes shining.
Shen Muqing suddenly had the feeling of going back to his college days and turning on the lights out party in his dormitory......
Perhaps, only Shi Jingshu can really understand her thoughts engraved in her bones in this world......
She thought about it and told Shi Jingshu everything about herself and Xiao Sa.
Shi Jingshu's smiling face gradually became solemn, just like her expression when she negotiated a life-and-death business.
“…… I like him a lot. I also know that he likes me...... Others must think I'm stupid. It's Xiao Sa, and I didn't tell the truth to him in front of him...... It's just a room, and after marrying, it's up to you to find a way to sell or die...... But I just can't do it...... As the old man said, if it was given by the elders, I could still comfort myself with my heart: it was because he was young and ignorant...... But the second sister is different. Sometimes, when I think of her, it's like seeing another version of myself...... Not recognized by mainstream society and struggling to survive...... You say, if it were you, would you give up fighting for the benefits you will get? ”
Shen Muqing said his feelings and worries all at once, and he didn't care if Shi Jingshu could understand it or not.
Moss grew in my heart. She needs an occasion to confide!
"Can't!" Shi Jingshu looked at Shen Muqing's eyes very seriously, "If it were me, I wouldn't give up." You became Xiao Sa's wife, and you didn't let Xiao Sa take a concubine, that was blocking her way of survival. If it were me, I would fight you to the end whenever I had a breath. ”
Or Shi Jingshu can understand her feelings.
Shen Mu sighed quietly.
"Therefore, if I want to live without blood, I can't marry Xiao Sa...... Can you understand the regret I feel every time I see Xiao Sa? ”
Shi Jingshu didn't make a sound, as if she was stunned by Shen Muqing's words.
(See you in old time, sisters!) o(n_n)o haha~)
