Chapter 194 Reluctantly

"Yiwen Tea Shop is on the right track, but I'm in chaos there. (hand-beaten)" Xiao Sa smiled, "It's better to let him go back and help me." ”

"Yes!" Shen Muqing felt bitter in his heart, "Letting Steward Pang stay in Yiwen Tea Shop again is indeed a bit overkill." ”

"Since you also agreed," Xiao Sa smiled lightly, "then let him go back to me tomorrow!" ”

Shen Muqing nodded.

"As for the 30,000 taels of silver that gave me emergency relief before, I will ask the eldest lady to send it to you tomorrow morning." Xiao Sa lowered his eyelids, "The profit is calculated as three points, do you think it's good?" ”

Shen Muqing looked at him with a smile: "Three points of profit? I've earned it! ”

Xiao Sa raised his eyelids to look at her again, and his eyes were already clear: "You save me urgently, I can't let you suffer too much." ”

"Then I'll thank you!" Shen Muqing smiled heartily.

Xiao Sa also smiled and asked, "By the way, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Oh!" Shen Muqing's expression was calm and composed, "I originally wanted to tell you about the matter of Chief Pang, since you have already decided, let's do it according to your ideas!" ”

Xiao Sa was stunned when he heard this, and then stopped talking.

Shen Muqing had already smiled and walked forward: "I'll send you. Let's go out! Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other in a long time! ”

Xiao Sa looked at Shen Muqing like a willow. With his back and dark eyes, he stood for a moment and slowly followed.

The two of them walked out of the flower gate and walked along the mezzanine to the flower hall in the outer courtyard - through. The hall of the flower hall can go to the main entrance.

It snowed for several days, and the road was cleaned, but the roof was still broken. Covered with white snow, it shines in the winter sun.

"Is it New Year's Eve in Kyoto? Or back to the city? Shen Muqing said warmly. He asked Xiao Sa.

"I don't know!" Xiao Sasheng. "I'll report to the Praetorian Guard tomorrow, how to decide, it depends on the arrangements over there." ”

Shen Muqing nodded and did not make a sound.

Xiao Sa silently followed behind her and did not speak.

In this way, the two arrived at the flower hall one after the other.

Shen Muqing carried her skirt up the steps of the flower hall, but Xiao Sa stopped.

Mu Qing never asked him for anything......

"You, just now, said that you want to discuss with me about managing Pang...... he was relieved, and asked her hesitantly, "What are your original plans?" ”

Shen Muqing smiled and turned around, as if he had just found Xiao Sa stopped, showing a surprised expression.

"Nothing!" She looked at Xiao Sa with a smile, "Don't mention the past!" Anyway, the decision has been made! ”

Xiao Sa's gaze deepened, and he muttered, "I won't mention the past...... yes, don't mention the past......"

Maybe it was too far away, Shen Muqing didn't seem to hear what he muttered, and asked him sideways, "What did you say?" ”

Looking at her sparkling eyes, Xiao Sa suddenly felt irritated in his heart...... He said in a rough voice, "Nothing! ”

Shen Muqing stepped down the first step, and the elegant fragrance lingered faintly on the tip of Xiao Sa's nose.

She looked at the hall of the flower hall: "If you go over, it will be the outer courtyard - I won't send it!" ”

Xiao Sa stared at Shen Muqing and did not move for a long time.

Shen Muqing looked back at Xiao Sa with a smile in his eyes.

The air is slowly filled with a faint warmth that makes people reluctant to give up.

The two of them stood like this, neither of them willing to speak to break this beautiful moment - they wanted to make this feeling longer, they wanted it to be deeper, they wanted it to remain in their memories forever...... I can't bear to break.

The north wind blew, the dead trees were blown to a rattle, and the biting chill made people shiver.

Shen Muqing came back to her senses at this time, she looked at Xiao Sa and smiled politely and detachedly: "The eldest lady must be looking forward to your return-Xiao Sa, I will not be far away." ”

Xiao Sa's body was shocked, and his eyes were gloomy: "Then I'll leave!" ”

Shen Muqing nodded and smiled brightly: "Don't send it!" ”

Xiao Sa was stunned, and her eyes fell inch by inch on her eyebrows, the tip of her nose, her lips, and the placket of her clothes...... The deep gaze is like a rough sea, tumbling with incomprehensible emotions.

"Take care!"

With that, he strode past her......

Shen Muqing looked at his upright and pine-like posture, unwavering steps, and shouted "Xiao Sa".

Xiao Sa paused, looked back at Shen Muqing, and looked at Shen Muqing with a complicated expression.

"Xiao Sa!" There was a glitter in the corners of Shen Muqing's eyes, "I'll help you make a pair of shoes, okay?" ”

Xiao Sa's eyes are as bright as the summer sun.

"Xiao Sa!" The corners of Shen Muqing's mouth curled slightly, "I want to help you make a pair of shoes, okay?" ”

Xiao Sa's bright gaze faded little by little, as deep as a starless midnight.

"Mu Qing," he said with difficulty, "the Praetorian Guards should wear soap boots...... No more! ”

Shen Muqing laughed, with a warm smile in his eyes: "I know!" ”

Got it! Do you really know? How much do you know?

The bitterness in his heart surged up little by little, making Xiao Sa unable to speak, and he didn't know how to speak......

He glanced at Shen Muqing, turned around and strode away.

"Someone sent away?" Shen Zhen said lightly.

"Hmm!" Shen Muqing responded.

"Have you said what you need to say?"

"Yes!"

"I heard Jingshu say that Ruichun is doing well in Fujian." Shen Zhen looked at Shen Muqing sharply, "It's spring, you can go to Fujian with Jingshu!" These days, you barely care about the things in your shop, and it's time to pick them up. ”

Shen Muqing was very surprised.

She didn't expect Shen Zhen to let her go to Fujian......

Looking at the silver white of Shen Zhen's sideburns, she sighed softly and answered "yes".

Back to Tingyuxuan, Shen Muqing's expression was still a little trance-like.

Shi Jingshu was very worried: "What's the matter?" Uncle Shen reprimanded you? ”

Shen Muqing shook his head and told what happened: "...... The master's attitude has not softened at all, and has even become more determined! ”

"And what do you do?" Shi Jingshu couldn't help frowning, "You can't disobey Uncle Shen for this matter, right?" ”

Shen Muqing groaned: "The Spring Festival banquet can be held on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and I want Mr. Min to come forward to persuade the master." ”

"That's a great idea!" Shi Jingshu said happily, "It's better to write a letter to Mrs. Min and set a date for the invitation." ”

Shen Muqing felt that Shi Jingshu had a good idea, so he hurriedly called Ying Fan Momo: "I'll write a letter to Mrs. Min!" ”

******

On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the ancestors were worshipped, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was eaten, and then the New Year was kept. On the first day of junior high school, Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu went to pay New Year's greetings to Shen Zhen, and Shen Zhen gave the two of them red envelopes.

Shi Jingshu took the red envelope and looked left and right with a smile: "Do I have it too?" ”

The calm Shi Jingshu rarely showed such childishness, and Shen Zhen couldn't help laughing: "You are a junior character." Both, both! ”

Aunt Chen brought mixed dumplings to eat again.

Everyone ate the dumplings with a smile. Shen Muqing thought that since Shen Zhen retired, the door of Shen's mansion on the first day of junior high school was crowded, and after he left, he didn't have to go out in the second and third years of junior high school. She offered to play with sparrows.

Shi Jingshu spent the New Year for the first time in someone else's house when she was so old, although she has always been jubilant, but she can't help but feel a little sad in her heart, and she hopes that this year will be lively. As soon as Shen Muqing proposed, she immediately responded.

Shen Zhen loves calligraphy, but Aunt Chen is not interested at all. Da She was not at home, she was already muttering in her heart, and she didn't know how to make up for Shen Zhen's interest.

When she heard that she was playing with sparrows, she was naturally overjoyed, and immediately asked Tian's mother to set up a seat and take the sparrows.

Shen Zhen saw through the world, and there was nothing particularly happy about the New Year, but he thought that Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu were still young, and people couldn't be quiet, so they were originally leading them to play, and of course they wouldn't object.

The four of them had their own thoughts and played with laughter for three days.

On the fourth day of junior high school, Aunt Chen began to prepare for the spring banquet, and Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu practiced calligraphy with Shen Zhen.

On the fifth day of the new year, Mr. Min and Yuan Yu were arranged, and on that day, the two brought their daughters and came early.

Mr. Min brought Jinxiu, and Yuan Yu brought the two little girls Dashuang and Xiaoshuang that Shen Muqing saw at his house, and Shen Muqing knew that these two girls were Yuan Yu's concubines.

Shi Jingshu looked at it and couldn't help but sigh: "I'm afraid it's younger than his granddaughter?" ”

Shen Muqing also felt a little depressed, but still reminded Shi Jingshu in a whisper: "That's someone else's business!" ”

Shen Zhen set up the banquet in the flower hall of the outer courtyard, and as soon as the refreshments were served, there was a faint sound of pipa in the flower hall.

Shen Muqing was quite surprised, and Jinxiu, who came to ask Shen Muqing for peace, hurriedly explained: "This is the big pair playing the pipa, and the little pair is good at the moon qin." ”

Shi Jingshu couldn't help but smile and said, "No wonder the fifth day of the new year rushed over?" There's no pipe head here! ”

Jinxiu couldn't help blushing and argued forcefully: "Our lady is also going to come, but it just so happens that there are guests at home." ”

Shi Jingshu quipped: "Oh? I'd like to hear it, which distinguished guest does you want your lady to flatter herself? ”

"You too, give a staircase to the next step!" Shen Muqing smiled and diverted the conversation, and instructed Jinxiu: "You find a chance to talk to Mr. Min, I have something urgent to find Mr. Min!" ”

Jinxiu responded with a "yes", and seeing that Shen Muqing misunderstood that she was shirking for Mrs. Min, she hurriedly explained: "There are really guests at home." It was our wife's grandmother and her brother. You don't know that this Xia family guards the widow and is extremely respected by the top and bottom of the Min family. If someone else came, our lady would have found an excuse to come, but she couldn't. ”

The widow is a widow, that is, before the man and the woman get married, the man dies, and the woman marries into the man's family with the tablet and remains widowed.

Shi Jingshu and Shen Muqing couldn't help but look at each other.

"Could it be that this Xia clan has encountered something difficult?" Shen Muqing couldn't help but wonder, "Otherwise, how could she be accompanied by her brother to Beijing at this time?" ”

"I don't know!" Jinxiu smiled, "Grandma Ten arrived in the middle of the night last night, and our wife didn't talk to her. ”

Since he couldn't ask anything, it was someone else's business, and he was still thinking about the meeting with Mr. Min, so Shen Muqing changed the topic: "I thought your wife would come, and I specially asked someone to make honey * juice lotus root, I asked people to keep it, you remember to take it back!" ”

No matter why the Xia family came, it was Mrs. Min's business. If it weren't for Shen Muqing asking, Jinxiu wouldn't have explained it so carefully. Since Shen Muqing no longer asked, Jinxiu naturally left it behind: "Auntie, don't worry, I must remember." Speaking of which, our wife is also worried about my aunt and grandmother - you have not forgotten our lady all year round, the peach in spring and the melon in winter......"
