Chapter 281: Each has its own means

Shen Muqing looked at Huang's back and couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Although I don't know what the story is, after all, this is a matter of the fourth room, and my status is embarrassing, not to mention my current situation, even the concubine of my relatives is not good to ask too deeply.

She commanded Ying Fan a little helplessly: "Let's go!" ”

Ying Fan responded and helped Shen Muqing into the car.

"Let's go to Zeng's house first, then to Yuan's house, and finally to Mr. Min." Shen Muqing commanded.

Ying Fan was slightly stunned: "Didn't you go to Mr. Min's house first in previous years?" ”

"I have something to do, I have to wait for Mr. Min to go down." Shen Muqing's expression was indifferent, "Let's go to Mr. Min at the end!" ”

Ying hurriedly responded, turned around and ordered the mother-in-law who followed.

came out of Zeng's house and went to Yuan's house, and when he arrived at Min's house, it was already the time to hold the lamp.

Seeing the carriage of the Xiao family, the porter of the Min Mansion hurriedly went in to make a statement. Knowing that it was Shen Muqing who came to give the New Year's gift, Mrs. Min personally greeted her.

"On such a cold day, I didn't let the mothers-in-law say a word, so I hurried over, afraid that I would lack this little thing from you for the New Year!" Mrs. Min said affectionately.

"I'm afraid you don't have this thing from me." Shen Muqing smiled, took Mrs. Min's arm and went to the inner courtyard with Mrs. Min, "I sent some mackerel to Mr. Min this year." ”

Although Mrs. Min is good to her, there is always a layer of veil between the two, and there is less intimacy. But since Xiao Sa came back, Mrs. Min's attitude towards her has been different, and she has a feeling of intimacy...... Shen Muqing more or less guessed some of Mrs. Min's thoughts - first she was dissatisfied with the Shen family's sending Jinxiu, and then Xiao Sa's family was Zhenglong, and the two families had this relationship, so they naturally wanted to get closer.

"Bothering you." Mrs. Min smiled, "Your Mr. Min likes to eat this the most—he always says that he dreams of the mackerel from his hometown in his dreams." ”

The two went to the second room of the main room and sat down affectionately, and Mrs. Min instructed the kitchen to add vegetables: "You stepped on this point, don't say you have eaten." ”

"I can't hide anything from you." Shen Muqing smiled, "I want to touch Mr. Min!" ”

Mrs. Min was slightly stunned: "But what's the matter?" Can you tell me? ”

"There's nothing I can't say to you." Shen Muqing smiled, "Speaking of which, I want you to maneuver around this matter." ”

"Oh!" Mrs. Min became interested and sent the maid in the house.

Shen Muqing said in a low voice: "My father-in-law's term of office in Shandong has expired, and he will return to Beijing to report on his work in the spring of next year." It stands to reason that his old man has been rated 'excellent' every year, and he is promoted to the first level. But now that we have a father-in-law on the cusp, if the father-in-law is promoted again...... I'm afraid that I will fall into the eyes of those who have a heart. ”

Mrs. Min showed a clear gaze: "You mean to let your father-in-law transfer to his original position?" ”

Shen Muqing nodded hurriedly: "The original position is fine." As for the transfer, his old man's current place is not bad, and when he goes to the rich land, he is afraid that there will be disputes again. ”

Since his political performance has been rated as "excellent" every year, he does not want to be promoted, he does not want to be transferred to a rich place, he just wants to succeed in his original position...... For Mr. Min, this is simply a gesture.

Mrs. Min thought about it, but there was a bit of ridicule in her smile: "I'm afraid it's not just that I'm afraid that Xiao Sa will be too showy, right?" ”

Shen Muqing was shocked when he heard this, but his face did not show half a point, and said with a smile: "What does my master ......mean?"

Mrs. Min smiled a little understanding: "I took your serious mother-in-law away, and the mother-in-law who is not rightly named lives with you, which is not only full of filial piety, but also less restrained." As she spoke, she winked at Shen Muqing, with a bit of sarcasm in her eyes, "I'm right." ”

It seems that Mrs. Min now thinks that she doesn't need to look at people's eyes, so she says things that shouldn't be said bluntly.

Shen Muqing sighed in his heart, turning a blind eye to her sarcasm, but said a little coquettishly: "I really can't hide anything from my master's eyes!" ”

Mrs. Min smiled a little smugly: "Don't worry. With the friendship between our two families, not to mention that the original position is retained, even if it is promoted to one or two ranks, or transferred to the state capital in Jiangnan, your Mr. Min will also try his best to help. ”

"Thank you, Master!" Shen Muqing thanked Mrs. Min happily.

The maid and the maid had already set up the meal outside, and the two sat down to eat affectionately, and Mrs. Min specially called Jinxiu to serve: "...... She used to be the person next to you, so she should come to say hello to you! ”

What you sow, what you reap.

Shen Muqing's amazement was in his heart. Accepted the gift of Jinxiu casually, said a few words on the scene, Jinxiu wrapped chopsticks in a handkerchief and handed them to Shen Muqing, serving them to eat.

She smiled and began to eat quietly.

Halfway through the meal, Mr. Min returned. Hearing that Shen Muqing was coming, he specially rushed to the place where they were eating.

After some greetings and the noise of the table, Mr. Min looked at Shen Muqing with a smile, as if he had suddenly discovered some unknown secret of Shen Muqing.

Mrs. Min watched from the sidelines and couldn't help but "cough" softly.

Shen Muqing also saw that Mr. Min had a strange attitude, and secretly beat the drum in his heart.

"Mu Qing, I just came back from the Qianqing Palace." Mr. Min raised eyebrows at the corners of his eyes slightly (he couldn't see clearly), "Xiao Sa gathered troops from Gansu, sent troops from Sichuan, annihilated 90,000 (can't see clearly), and captured the end of Yuanmeng Khan. Mu Qing, Xiao Sa has made immortal achievements! ”

Shen Muqing's ears buzzed, and it took him a while to understand what Mr. Min said.

Xiao Sa, there was a big battle......

She couldn't help muttering to herself, "He didn't tell me anything in his letter!" ”

Mr. Min laughed: "Mu Qing, this is an important matter for the military aircraft, how could he tell you." ”

"In this way, Xiao Sa is going to be added to the knighthood!" Mrs. Min said faintly on the side, "Mu Qing, you are really good-looking, you have found Xiao Sa!" ”

Mr. Min smiled and waved his hand, and said disapprerovingly: "Our family Mu Qing married Xiao Sa, did he not wronged him?" I think back then, if it weren't for Master Shen, how could Xiao Sa escape from Bahe......"

"That's all about the help of a few adults." Shen Muqing hurriedly said modestly, "If it weren't for a few adults, how could he be today!" ”

"Hehehe," Mr. Min laughed, "we are a family, don't say these official words." I'm also happy to be here today, and you happen to be here for two drinks with me. It's been a long time since I've raised my eyebrows like this. You don't know, as soon as Xiao Sa wins this battle, our situation in the temple will all change, not to mention me, even the emperor is very happy. shouted that Xiao Sa was his lucky general......"

Mr. Min nagged, Mrs. Min had personally poured three glasses of Jinhua wine, one to Mr. Min and one to Shen Muqing, and took a cup herself: "Since it is such a happy event, I really have to celebrate and celebrate." ”

Everyone drank their own wine.

Only then did Mr. Min say, "Mu Qing, you came to my house at this time, but what's the matter?" ”

Before Shen Muqing could speak, Mrs. Min had already preemptively told her intention: "...... I also think Mu Qing has a good idea. lest you set rules in front of your mother-in-law every day and feel uncomfortable. ”

Mr. Min frowned and said softly, "You are an elder, how can you say such a thing!" ”

Mrs. Min's face was flushed with shame, and Shen Muqing hurriedly opened her mouth to relieve Mrs. Min: "This is all secondary. The main thing is that Xianggong is too healthy now......"

Mr. Min nodded slightly, and said with a straight face: "I heard some rumors, and I don't know if it's true." said that Xiao Sa's biological father spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, so that Xiao Sa's biological mother had no place to stand and came to you...... Is there such a thing? ”

Shen Muqing couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

I didn't expect a high-ranking official like Mr. Min to know so quickly!

However, after all, this is the Xiao family's housework, Xiao Zhao is Xiao Sa's biological father after all, his reputation is damaged, and Xiao Sa's face is also unbearable......

She had to say vaguely, "Not exactly." The main reason is that we were in Shanghai at that time, and Xianggong's biological mother was not at ease, so she followed us in Shanghai for a few years. From the bottom of my heart, I feel that she is an old man and really wants to stay by her side. ”

Mr. Min bowed his head slightly thoughtfully, and muttered, "It's good to let Xiao Qian stay in his original position." Shandong Buzheng Si is Wang Qing's cousin, and with him to help take care of him, there should be no major incident. ”

"Thank you, sir!" Seeing that Mr. Min agreed, Shen Muqing couldn't help but look overjoyed.

The goal was achieved, Shen Muqing relaxed a lot, and as Mr. Min's topic chatted, in the end, Mr. Min's interest actually pulled Shen Muqing into the study to see his newly painted fish and bird painting: "...... How? It's not much worse than that Yuan Yu! Shen Muqing covered his sleeves and smiled.

When I got home, it was already the middle of the night—if it weren't for the waist card given by Mr. Min, I am afraid that I would have been stopped by the Praetorian Guards who patrolled the night.

What surprised Shen Muqing was that the fourth wife hadn't stopped yet, and when she saw her coming back, she immediately called her to question: "...... Why did you come back so late? ”

"When I went to Mr. Min's house, I happened to meet Mr. Min when he got out of the office, so he left me there to eat, and painted a picture for me." Shen Muqing explained with a smile.

The fourth lady looked a little unhappy: "If you encounter such a thing in the future, remember to bring a letter, so as not to make us anxious." ”

Shen Muqing hurriedly apologized.

The fourth lady looked at her and stopped talking, and then waved her hand for a while: "You go down and rest!" ”

Shen Muqing had already made arrangements for the affairs of the family, and the fourth wife's mind was not within the scope of her worries, she smiled and saluted, returned to the house, and went to see the child.

"After you left, the girl and the young master were very well-behaved." The magpie looked at Yueying and Ziyang, who were sleeping side by side under the lamp, and said with a smile, "The fourth wife didn't say anything cold. After eating, he let the girl and the young master go back to the house. When the girl saw that you were not at home, she told the young master a story! ”

Shen Muqing smiled and nodded: "That's good!" ”

"Grandma has been running for a day, so let's take a break!" Ying Fan laughed on the side.

Shen Muqing also felt a little tired: "You can rest early, you followed me for a day today." ”

"I'm not tired." Ying Fan smiled and served Shen Muqing to change his clothes, "I just don't understand, why did you ask Mr. Min to let the fourth master stay in his original position?" ”
