Chapter 273: Helpless
After all, the departure and stay of the tea show is a matter for the elders, and Shen Muqing avoided it: "...... (I can't see clearly) I have something to see, I'll take a look! β
The eldest lady took the opportunity to say: "I'll go with youβI also want to see why Tong Yuansheng is stealing business with others." β
All the provinces of Nanxunfang have to designate stores on credit, and most of them are century-old brands, Wang Wenhui wants to rob other people's business, without a little means and characteristics, it is simply impossible.
Shen Muqing knew that the eldest lady didn't want to stay here to watch those messy things, so he smiled and said, "The eldest lady helped me go to the battle, it couldn't be better." Although I lent Wang Wenhui the silver, I hope that she can make money and return the money. I hope Tongyuan Sheng business will be prosperous! β
Xiao Zhao opened his mouth to speak, but Shen Muqing had already helped the eldest lady and walked out.
Zheng Sanye looked at him and smiled: "My fake uncle won't stay here to annoy people......" said and hurriedly left.
There were Xiao Zhao, Cha Xiu, and Xiao Cheng left in the house.
"You can take your mother to the Liansheng Inn to rest!" Xiao Zhao's expression was a little tired.
"Daddy......" Xiao Cheng's face was full of consternation.
Xiao Zhao waved his hand, his expression a little depressed: "We will leave for Yangzhou tomorrow." β
The consternation on Xiao Cheng's face turned into surprise: "Dad......"
Xiao Zhao had already walked out with heavy steps.
The eldest lady walked halfway and suddenly stopped: "I'm a little tired, so I won't go with you to see the steward of Tongyuansheng!" β
Shen Muqing understood the eldest lady's mood very well, and said with a smile: "You are not in good health, it's better to rest more!" Tongyuansheng is there, just to say hello and let us take care of business. I can handle these little things! β
The eldest lady smiled and nodded, and smiled at Zheng Sanye, who had been following them, "Third brother, you can accompany me back to the house!" β
Zheng Sanye was stunned, but quickly responded respectfully.
Shen Muqing went to the account room.
Tong Yuansheng's steward is a middle-aged man in his forties, who claims to be surnamed Wang. said that he was ordered by Wang Wenhui to ask Shen Muqing for peace, and if there was anything in the future, he could order Tong Yuansheng to do it.
Shen Muqing responded, asked about Tong Yuansheng's situation, and sent the guest to the eldest lady with tea.
Knowing that the eldest lady had rested, Zheng Sanye returned to his residence, and Shen Muqing also returned to his own room - she wrote a letter to Xiao Sa and told him everything that had happened in the past few days.
was writing, Ying Fan came to see her and told Shen Muqing about the conversation between Xiao Zhao and Xiao Cheng: "...... What should we say if the big lady smells! β
Shen Muqing was a little sad, silent for a long time, and said, "Just tell the truth!" β
"Got it!" Ying Fan sighed softly, "Why did it happen like this?" β
Shen Muqing also smiled bitterly.
In the evening, she led the child to greet the eldest lady, and the eldest lady suddenly comforted Shen Muqing: "You don't need to feel sorry for me. I'm fine. β
Shen Muqing couldn't say anything, so he had to nod indiscriminately.
The next day, Xiao Zhao only said "You wait for me" to the eldest lady and left Sizhiyuan.
The eldest lady couldn't help but chase after her, and said loudly to Xiao Zhao's back: "Master, don't worry about me here." Or do you want to deal with Xiaoshan's affairs with peace of mind? β
Xiao Zhao turned around and waved his hand at the eldest lady, got on the horse with a smile, and walked away with his entourage whipping.
The eldest lady smiled helplessly, thinking about whether to send Zheng Sanye to say something, so that he would not come to see him, so as not to attract Chaxiu again, but he heard a news from Shen Muqing - 60,000 yuan of Mongolian people gathered in Liangshan, and the emperor ordered Xiao Sa to be the general army of Sichuan, responsible for the defense of Gansu and Sichuan, which caused the impeachment of the imperial history, thinking that Xiao Sa's military power was too heavy and did not conform to convention.
The emperor left the fold in the middle and did not send it.
The eldest lady was very worried: "The emperor listens to those royal histories every day, will he change his mind one day?" β
Shen Muqing comforted the eldest wife: "It's going to be fine-the emperor trusts the prime minister very much!" β
"What if you don't trust it one day?" The eldest lady muttered in a low voice, "Wealth is really a ...... in danger"
Shen Muqing smiled bitterly, and thought that he hadn't been back to his parents' house for a long time, so he discussed with the eldest lady to go to Shen's house for a day together: "...... You can also take a look at Sister Jingshu and Brother Tai. β
The eldest lady was a little hesitant - at that time, it was more prudent to go to her in-laws' house.
Yueying heard that she was going to her grandfather's house, she was so happy that she didn't practice her work, and when she saw the eldest lady pondering there, she stepped forward and took the eldest lady's hand: "Grandma, grandma, let's go." My brother is going too! β
The eldest lady was amused by Yueying: "My younger brother is also going, why didn't I hear Ziyang talk about it?" β
Ziyang spoke earlier than Yueying, and he pronounced the words very clearly, but he was only a child of more than a year old, and he couldn't express too complex emotions - the eldest lady was teasing Yueying.
Yueying said with a serious expression: "My brother told me!" β
"Oh!" The eldest lady raised her eyebrows, let people hug Ziyang, and asked Ziyang with a smile, "Ziyang, your sister said that you were going to grandpa's house, didn't you?" β
Ziyang didn't understand this, he just smiled at the eldest lady.
Yueying nodded on the side: "Grandma, my brother told me that he is also going to his grandfather's house." β
"Just go yourself!" The eldest lady smiled and hugged Ziyang in her arms, "I have to drag my younger brother into the water......"
"Really!" Yueying's eyes were bright, "You don't understand, you're an adult, you can't understand us (can't see clearly)." β
The eldest lady laughed: "It's really like Xiao Sa when he was a child." If it's not right, it's a pair......"
Shen Muqing also laughed and taught Yueying a lesson: "If you want to go, just say you want to go, don't use others as an excuse." I don't like that. β
Yueying blinked her big eyes and nodded: "Mother, I'm going to my grandfather's house." I want to take my brother with me. My grandfather hadn't seen me and my brother for so long, so he must have missed us. There are also Uncle She, Brother Tai, Aunt, Uncle ......"
"Look at this kid!" The eldest lady smiled and pointed at Yueying, "There are so many ideas!" β
Everyone talked and laughed, and the eldest lady couldn't bear to brush off the children's meaning, so she decided to follow Shen Muqing to Shen's house to visit relatives.
Over there, Shi Jingshu knew that Shen Muqing was coming, so she was naturally very happy, and Dashe also specially asked for leave, and let people prepare food and drink early, and a few people talked and laughed, and had a good day.
When I returned home in the evening, I received an invitation from Wei, saying that I wanted to invite the eldest wife, Shen Muqing and the children to Sanfeng Nunnery to eat food - Sanfeng Nunnery will be on Sanfeng Mountain, not far from Alfalfa Mountain, the mountain is full of yellow oak trees, and every autumn, the leaves are red like flames all over the mountain.
"Mitoyo-an's pickles are famous." Shen Muqing smiled, "Especially the pickled snow is red, fragrant and crispy, green and green, and it looks good." β
"Then go ahead!" The eldest lady smiled, thinking of Yueying and Ziyang running around in the back garden of the Shen family, "It's cold in a few days, and the children can't run outside like this." β
Shen Muqing responded with a smile, and asked the mother who sent the post to thank Wei on her behalf, Ying Fan rewarded another tael of silver, and her mother thanked her with a smile and went back to reply to Wei.
A few days later, she received a reply from Xiao Sa.
Xiao Sa was very unhappy with Xiao Cheng bringing the tea show to his house to find Xiao Zhao: "...... Since he is on the spectrum, he is the son of the eldest wife, so he should have brought his daughter-in-law to serve the sick, why did he bring his biological mother instead. If you encounter such a thing in the future, you don't have to scruple about it, it's right to teach him a good lesson. He also talked about his trip to Sichuan, "In the past, in Shanghai, some people heard of my reputation. I am a hero in the army, and I have won several battles in Gansu, and I can do things like an arm, which is sometimes more convenient than in Gansu. β
Shen Muqing put his mind at ease and hurriedly took the letter to show the eldest lady - he wanted the eldest lady to know Xiao Sa's attitude on the matter of the tea show, as well as the current safety.
The eldest lady looked at the corners of her eyes and was slightly wet.
Shen Muqing muttered in his heart: Fortunately, he had an extra heart, and he didn't tell Xiao Sa about Xiao Cheng's attitude towards Zheng Sanye. If he said it, Xiao Sa didn't know how angry he would be.
picked a good day, the eldest lady and Shen Muqing brought Yueying and Ziyang, and the Wei family brought Brother Bao, the mother-in-law, maid and guard of the two families, and went to Sanfeng Mountain.
The host of Sanfeng'an closed the mountain gate early, greeted them at the bottom of the mountain, and after eating fast, the host accompanied the eldest lady, Shen Muqing and Wei to the back mountain to enjoy the scenery.
It happened to be the sun that day, there was no wind, walking on the back slope of Sanfengan, the cold air, the brightness of the mountain, made people feel refreshed.
"You've come to the right place!" The eldest lady closed her eyes and took a breath, "It's better to go out for a walk." β
Wei nodded: "Who said it wasn't." When I was a girl, I loved coming here. Later, when I got older, my family didn't let me out. It is said that when you get married and are not happy when you are a girl at home, I think they also have their own benefits. At least when you are a girl, you can't go wherever you want like now. β
"This is also the birth of rich ladies!" The host of Sanfeng Nunnery carefully accompanied the smiling face on the side, "If it is an ordinary family, where can there be such a blessing as a lady." β
Wei Shi entertained the host for a few words, and politely refused the host's accompaniment.
Behind this mountain, they all guarded the Dai family and the Xiao family's family and the nursing home, and the host was not afraid of accidents, so he smiled and entertained a few words, and then took the little nun around him back to the nunnery.
"It's very sour."
Wei smiled and took Shen Muqing's hand, "When she left, I felt a lot lighter." β
Everyone laughed.
The eldest lady looked at Wei like that, as if she was very affectionate to Shen Muqing, and thought that Wei and Shen Muqing were both young people and had common topics, so she wanted to avoid them and give them a space. So he took a few steps forward and walked to Yueying's side, pointed to a stone tablet not far in front of him, and said, "Yueying, let's go there and have a look!" β
Yueying was wearing a red silk jacket inside and a white fox cloak outside, with picturesque eyebrows and a bright smile, which made people's eyes light up.
When she heard the eldest lady say this, she shook off the magpie's hand and ran towards the stone tablet in front of her. The eldest lady was startled and hurriedly said, "You slow down, you slow down, be careful of falling." β
"Sister, sister......" Ziyang writhed in his mother's arms, shouting Yueying.
Brother Bao obediently stayed by his mother's side, looking at Yueying with some curiosity - he felt that her fur cloak was bouncing on the bluestone paved path, really like a little white rabbit.
