Wei Changying breathed a sigh of relief: "Really found it?" ”

"In a few days, people will arrive in the imperial capital, so how can there be a fake?" Huang smiled slightly, "But Master Wei Liu was sick earlier, and this time he was outcast, not to mention the lack of medicine, and there was no good rest in the middle. ”

"He's thankful he's alive." Wei Changying sighed, "Panzhou's place...... This is also blessed by God, otherwise I would not have much hope. Oh, now does Cousin Song know? ”

Huang said: "Since the news has been reported to the master, didn't the master promise to tell the Song family before?" ”

Wei Changying nodded, and that's all for this matter. She spread out her hand and showed the letter from Xiliang to the Huang family: "The fifth brother wants the fifth brother and sister to come over to help, what does my aunt think?" ”

"The maid told the truth, now that Mrs. Ji is helping Mrs., Mrs. Ji's health is gradually getting better. And the eldest lady is extremely smart, and there is no shortage of five ladies to come back to help. Huang thought for a while, and then said, "On the contrary, on the Xiliang side, the fifth master is weak alone, and the fifth lady is by his side, and he can also help." ”

Wei Chang Ying's head was bowed: "I think so too." Even if we really lack one or two people here, we can't go all the way to call her over. ”

She decided so, so she wrote a letter in reply.

When this letter was delivered to Xiliang, it was already the beginning of summer.

The early summer in the west is extremely cool, and when Su Yuyin walked through a section of the road blocked by the high wall, he even felt that his body was cold to his heart.

Fortunately, the courtyard where Shen Zangzhu and Shen Shuxi live faces south, and the sun is abundant.

Under the grapevines that can climb all over the shelves but have not yet reached the level of Weirui, Shen Zangzhu, who is lightly worried between his eyebrows, is holding a pottery bowl, and is carefully blowing the blue stem rice porridge to feed Shen Shuxi.

Five-year-old Shen Shuxi can no longer see the weakness when she was born, her eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Pei Meiniang, but she does not have Pei Meiniang's inadvertently pampered atmosphere, but she looks elegant and soft. I think it's because Shen Zangzhu, who raised her, is an elegant and quiet lady. Wearing a raw hemp filial piety dress on her, she looks more and more pure and lovely, not like a mortal.

Seeing Su Yuyin coming, Shen Shuxi hurriedly turned his head away from the spoonful of porridge brought to his mouth, and reminded his aunt: "The fifth aunt is here!" ”

"Fifth brother and sister, are you free today?" Shen Zangzhu turned his head to look, only to find Su Yuyin, put the bowl on the stone table, and got up to greet him.

"The letter from the third sister-in-law is here, and I want to show it to the eldest sister." Su Yuyin made a family salute with her, and called Shen Shuxi who saluted to her softly.

Shen Zangzhu knew that since the news of Shen Xuan's brother's death reached Xiliang, there had been some instability in Mingpei Hall, and now, there was even an undercurrent. Although such a battle is probably ahead, it is impossible for these women to stay out of the situation. Su Yuyin is very busy these days, frequently visiting or inviting some family members.

So he said, "So that's the case, but it's good for you to bring it personally, why do you still run it yourself?" ”

Su Yuyin smiled: "I haven't seen my eldest sister and Xi'er for two days." He touched Shen Shuxi's head, followed Shen Zangzhu's invitation and sat down with her on the stone bench with a brocade mat, and naturally picked up the bowl of steaming porridge and continued to feed Shen Shuxi, "And what the third sister-in-law said in the letter, I want to ask the eldest sister to help me get an idea." ”

"Oh?" Shen Zangzhu was slightly stunned, looked at the letter and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Big sister, read the letter first, I'll feed Xi'er porridge." Su Yuyin grabbed Shen Shuxi, asked her niece to lean over to her, and carefully blew cold porridge to coax her to eat.

Shen Zangzhu opened the letterhead, first glanced at it a few times, and then his expression became solemn, but he saw that Shen Shuxi had not finished drinking the porridge and had not spoken. When Shen Shuxi shook her head and said that she didn't want to eat it, Su Yuyin took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth for her, before putting down the letter and saying, "Our Xiliang is not a source of medicinal materials, but this request of the third brother and sister is to be landed in Guanzhou." ”

However, in Wei Changying's letter, in addition to greetings and refusal of Su Yuyin's request to return to the imperial capital to help, he roughly talked about the situation of everyone in the imperial capital, saying that because the imperial capital and Zuo were burned, many medicinal materials were in an emergency. However, in today's imperial capital, there are many injured or sick people, so I hope that Su Yuyin and Shen Zangzhu can help share the collection of some medicinal materials.

Among them, the old ginseng is impressively listed in the first place.

This request can be regarded as a rejection of Su Yuyin's compromise steps to go to the imperial capital.

After all, the Shen family is now in a difficult period, and in the imperial capital, the third lady Wei Changying took on the responsibility of the housemother of Mingpei Hall in advance, and she was very busy; The sixth lady Huo Qingling was sick because of sadness and family affairs before the big change, but everyone knows it, and there is no way to do it.

And Su Yuyin, the fifth lady, of course, can't enjoy happiness in Xiliang all day long, but compared with the sister-in-law and younger siblings who have experienced the edge of the imperial capital, it can be regarded as a great blessing. However, the Shen Xuan brothers died, and the Ming Pei Hall was turbulent, she was a woman and young, and she couldn't do anything in Xiliang for the time being, and she proposed to return to the imperial capital and was rejected by her sister-in-law.

In the future, this sect survived this period of time, and Su Yuyin had no work, although it would not shake her status, but her face was gloomy.

Wei Changying asked her to help collect medicinal herbs, which was equivalent to giving her a chance to perform.

What's more, although Xiliang does not produce any medicinal materials, the neighboring Guanzhou is a well-known medicinal material production area in the whole country.

Especially the old mountain ginseng, the Mengshan Mountain, which winds for thousands of miles, what kind of herbs are not? There will be no shortage of old ginseng.

Although it is said that the medicine pickers come and go frequently, and it is difficult to find good ginseng even if they are not in the depths, there is always a way to guard Mengshan. This request was made in consideration of Su Yuyin's convenience, and it can be regarded as her sister-in-law's good intentions.

At this moment, Su Yuyin took the letter to ask Shen Zangzhu for advice, in fact, he was also a scholar and a guard, and he shared this credit with his sister-in-law - in the future, it was also Shen Zangzhu who sent people to Guanzhou to collect medicinal materials.

Of course, Shen Zangzhu must not be in the mood to think of any credit or not, and will only think that this is his brother-in-law's respect for him.

Listening to her words, Su Yuyin bowed her head and said: "What the eldest sister said is that the imperial capital is thousands of miles away from us, if it is for one cart or two carts of medicinal herbs, the third sister-in-law will definitely not open this mouth with us." Since there are so many of them, how can you rely on the pharmacy here in Xiliang? Besides, Xiliang can't leave no medicine at all, but he can only go to Guanzhou to find a way. ”

"Because of the jade mine in Guanzhou, our family has people there." Shen Zangzhu suggested, "The manpower there was originally arranged by the third brother and sister personally, you can ask someone if they are familiar with the way." ”

"I'd like to go." Su Yuyin pondered for a moment and said.

Shen Zangzhu didn't react at first, but only woke up after watching her breath, "Ah" said, "You went over in person?" "I don't approve of it," the soldiers are in chaos, and now Xiliang is unstable here, you better send someone to go!" If you don't feel at ease, send a few more people. ”

"Don't worry if you don't go in person." Su Yuyin sighed, looked at Shen Shuxi, who was chasing a colorful butterfly not far away, and frowned slightly.

Shen Zangzhu turned his head and instructed the maid: "Xi'er thinks she's sweating when she runs all these times, take her down to scrub and change her clothes." ”

After Shen Shuxi was reluctantly dragged away by the maid, Shen Zangzhu asked his subordinates to retreat a little farther away, and then asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"After my father and uncle are gone, the eldest sister also knows about the situation in the clan." Su Yuyin's eyes were slightly red, and he said, "Now that our sect is supported by the second brother and the third brother, there must be no more mistakes!" ”

Shen Zangfeng and others hid the news of Shen Zanghui's father and son and Shen Yonghua's death from Shen Zangzhu, but Shen Zangzhu just thought of his deceased father, and his heart was also full of sorrow. She is her own daughter, and the sadness of Su Yuyin's daughter-in-law is different, and she is almost about to cry, and she said, "You are right...... Are you worried that the clan will use their hands and feet in this batch of medicinal herbs? ”

"No, it will." Su Yuyin bit her lip and said, "Big sister, think about it, if they are honest people, what are they tossing these days?" Since you are restless, how can you miss this opportunity? This batch of medicinal materials was personally requested by the third sister-in-law, and once it was transported to Beijing, it might be for the second and third brothers, as well as their nephews. Even if you don't use it yourself, sell it or give it away, if something happens, it's the second brother and the third brother who will bear the brunt! How can we give them such a chance? ”

Shen Zangzhu pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "But a batch of medicinal materials will be collected by you personally, how can the clan not know your calculations?" If they really want to use their hands and feet in the medicinal herbs, and you have seen traces, I am afraid ...... The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry! ”

"Now our sect still occupies a righteous name, and the most elite 300,000 soldiers and horses of the Xiliang Army are also in the hands of the third brother." Su Yuyin said in a deep voice, "Forgive them and don't dare to do anything to me clearly, how can I say that I am also the daughter of the Su family!" My father, mother, and brother are gone, but my uncle and uncle have always loved me. I don't believe they have the courage to openly attack me, but they sent their servants, they don't have so many taboos, I'm afraid that if they say harm, they will be harmed! At that time, even if we don't send the medicinal materials to the imperial capital, we will miss the matter of the third sister-in-law. ”

"I don't dare to touch you openly, but I ...... secretly"

"Secretly, it's just to see who is better." Su Yuyin squinted his eyes and said lightly, "What's more, with their selfish methods, even if I don't go to Guanzhou to preside over the purchase of medicinal materials, in the backyard of this Ming Pei Hall, they won't count me?" Instead of waiting for them to come to the door, it is better to take the lead by taking advantage of the Guanzhou group! ”

Shen Zangzhu was stunned for a moment, she just listened to Su Yuyin's words, and thought that this brother and daughter-in-law were purely afraid that someone would manipulate the medicinal herbs, but now listening to it, it was Su Yuyin who wanted to take this opportunity...... Officially intervened, and even took the initiative to provoke the battle of Ming Peitang?

However, it does not seem bad to transfer the battlefield from Xiliang to Guanzhou, at least in Guanzhou, there are few people involved, and the scale of the conflict is not easy to expand. After all, it is an infighting in the clan, and all that is lost is the savings of the Xiliang Shen family, and of course the less this consumption, the better...... What's more, the thoughts in the clan that are about to move have been brewing but not starting, they are really well prepared, Shen Zangfeng and the others are not in Xiliang, the young Shen Zangji and Shen Shuming have a shallow foundation and immature skills, and they will definitely suffer.

It's better to take advantage of the situation now to catch them off guard!

"And what do you want me to do?" Since Su Yuyin has such an idea, it is definitely not just to show respect for himself, Shen Zangzhu asked solemnly.

Su Yuyin sighed and looked at her: "After I left, I wanted to ask my eldest sister to help take care of my husband and Ming'er, as well as this Mingpeitang." ”

"I don't want you to use these, I will take care of them." Shen Zangzhu was stunned, "Isn't there anything to do?" ”

"Nope." Su Yuyin shook his head and said, "Big sister knows, husband and Ming'er are both young, and they were also spoiled by their father and brothers in the past, and when they encounter trouble, they will inevitably be frizzy." When I was here, I was always able to persuade my husband in private, but after I left, I had to bother my big sister. ”

Shen Zangzhu bowed his head and said: "Don't worry about this, I will definitely pay attention to them and not let the clan calculate them." ”

If it weren't for her husband's death, she would now be the only housewife of the Su family, just like Wei Changying. Although it is said that the widowhood life is boring, it extinguishes all kinds of spirit in the youth. But now for the sake of her mother's family to cheer up again, it is not comparable to ordinary women.

After getting her promise, Su Yuyin showed a relieved look, and the two said a few more words, and Su Yuyin excused himself to leave under the pretext that he still had something to do.

On the way back to her house, the maid saw that there was no one in front of her, so she asked Su Yuyin in a low voice: "Why didn't Madame talk about the fourth master, the seventh master and the fifth son?" In case the clan reveals the news......"

In fact, this is the reason why Su Yuyin came over in person - Shen Zangzhu has been bored since she was widowed. At that time, if it weren't for Shen Zhou's love for his daughter and insisted on taking her back to her parents' house, he couldn't bear to brush his father's heart, Shen Zangzhu was afraid that she would be rescued in her husband's mourning hall, and she would still look for an opportunity to go underground to accompany her husband when she turned around.

Therefore, no one dared to tell her the news that Shen Zhou had no male heir alive. Even if you can't hide it for a lifetime, at least you have to delay it for a few years, and when the status of the sect is stabilized and Shen Zangzhu is brought together, everyone will slowly tell her when everyone is there, and everyone will share it if something happens. Otherwise, even if Shen Shuxi is under his knees at this moment, he may not be able to guarantee that Shen Zangzhu can continue to live.

The maid also knew this, but Su Yuyin deliberately rushed over in person, but she just said a few words of entrustment lightly and left......

"What do you know? Although the big sister usually doesn't care about things, she is extremely shrewd. Su Yuyin frowned, but said, "In the years when she was my second cousin-in-law, although I was young, I also remember how capable she was. Otherwise, how could my eldest aunt tell her to my second cousin? If I remind her of this matter, it will be that there are no three hundred taels of silver here, and it is better to entrust it lightly, but emphasize the insidious and vicious nature of the clansmen. At that time, the eldest sister may think that the clansmen are deliberately spreading rumors in order to mess with her mind, so that she will not be able to take care of her husband and them after her heart is disturbed! ”

The maid was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What if ......?"

"No whatever!" Su Yuyin cut off her words expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Since my father and uncle are gone, just by virtue of the age of the second brother and the third brother, our branch will not be safe!" And what if it doesn't...... It's nothing more than using their own means, and then they become kings and losers! ”
