Chapter 34: It's Him

Shen Lizhen didn't notice that everyone present had changed their faces, and said with relish: "I asked her who this person was, but she didn't say it, she just said that she would marry him at the age of eighteen, let me wait and see." ”

"The order of her parents, the words of the matchmaker, she dares to make a private life with others?" The old lady was a little angry.

Shen Lixing looked at his sister coldly and didn't say a word.

Shen Lizhen hurriedly said: "No, no, I think she should be joking, only the poor will not take concubines in this world, how can she be!" What is this not a joke? How can it be possible to make a private agreement with someone for life? ”

The old lady's face looked better.

At this time, the meals were all set, the three grandparents and grandchildren were on the table, Shen Lizhen hurriedly sandwiched the smoked fish for his grandmother to taste, and Shen Lixing sandwiched a piece himself.

The old lady tasted the fish balls again, and said that they were delicious, but Shen Lixing didn't speak, only ate a small bowl and said that he had something to say goodbye and left.

When he returned to the courtyard, Ding Shan saw that he had a tiger face again, and he didn't dare to squeak, and when he saw that he had gone to the study, he sent someone to make tea, and he was guarding in the hall outside the study.

Sitting at the desk, his sister's words lingered in Shen Lixing's mind for a long time. He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, thinking hard about who this man who did not take a concubine, but he couldn't understand it, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

The girl Hongqiao made tea, and when she saw Ding Shan guarding in the outer hall, she handed it to him. Because Shen Lixing has rules, no one is allowed to enter his study without permission, and the people who usually enter and leave are Ding Shan and Li Chong, so Hong Qiao didn't dare to go in. Ding Shan is also a ghost lacking in morality, he saw that Shen Lixing's face was not good-looking, so he didn't want to go in and touch his head, so he coaxed the Hong Qiao and said: "Sister Hong Qiao, my leg hurts today, you can send this tea in" He also flicked his right leg and grinned.

Hong Qiao hesitated, and Ding Shan cheered: "It's okay, the master won't say anything about you, I'm not guarding outside!" ”。

Usually it is extremely difficult for girls to get close to Shen Lixing's body, he is very strict, and he talks about rules, except for Aunt Du who can get him a smile, other subordinates are basically extravagant, even his two big girls are Anxin and An Ran rarely have the opportunity to serve closely, almost all of them are Ding Shan and Li Chong by their side.

Today, Hong Qiao was fortunate to come to deliver tea, but he didn't dare to go in, but when he heard Ding Shan say this, he was relieved, and immediately straightened his clothes and hair, and entered the study in a charming manner.

Ding Shan sneered, took tea and sat down on the Diaoyutai in the hall outside.

Hong Qiao went in and saw Shen Lixing closing his eyes as if thinking about a problem, so he said coquettishly: "Uncle, tea is here."

Shen Lixing had already heard the footsteps and found that it was not Ding Shan who came in, and he didn't bother to open his eyes when he heard this sound, so he only hummed.

Seeing that his eyes were still closed, Hong Qiao was a little unwilling, took a teacup and filled it, approached Shen Lixing with both hands and said coquettishly: "Uncle, let's take a sip of tea" As he spoke, he deliberately leaned over, feeling as if he was about to fall on Shen Lixing.

A smell of rouge wafted into Shen Lixing's nose, and he frowned and said, "Get out." ”

Hong Qiao thought that he had misheard, glared at Shen Lixing twice, and saw that he still hadn't opened his eyes, so he continued to snort: "Uncle, drink tea to moisten your throat......"

Shen Lixing opened his eyes, Hong Qiao was happy in his heart, and hurriedly handed over the tea.

Seeing that it was a girl who didn't know her name, Shen Lixing frowned and said, "Get out!" ”

"Huh?" Hong Qiao couldn't react for a while, but when he came back to his senses, he showed an aggrieved pear blossom with rain: "Uncle......"

Ding Shan suddenly heard a "roll" outside, and the bullet jumped up, and he was glad that he didn't go to deliver tea, and when he saw that Hong Qiao didn't get out quickly, he couldn't help but be a little anxious.

Suddenly heard the sound of "pop", the sound of the teacup falling to the ground, Ding Shan secretly said badly, rushed to the door of the study, neither in nor in retreat.

I only heard Shen Lixing say inside: "Go to the left mother-in-law to receive ten slaps, and have a long memory!" ”

Ding Shan was afraid that Hong Qiao would continue to be entangled inside, and was about to go in and drag her out, only to see Hong Qiao cover her face and cry and run out.

He hurriedly chased after him and said: "Don't cry, our lord doesn't like others to disturb him, you can send tea, why are you talking so much nonsense?" Go and get someone to clean up the ground. ”

Hong Qiao wiped away her tears and glared at him, "Didn't you have a leg injury?!" ”

Ding Shan said embarrassedly: "It was originally injured." ”

"Hmph" Hong Qiao turned around and left.

Ding Shan went back in a daze, and went into the study by himself to carefully clean up the broken porcelain.

After finishing the collection, he didn't see Shen Lixing say a word, and his nervous mood calmed down.

Shen Lixing was originally thinking about who the man who didn't take a concubine in Gao Shiman's eyes was, and he didn't know the essentials, but a fly came in and told her to get out of here, and she dared to get tired in front of him, so he raised his hand and lifted the teacup.

This time it will be quiet, and he will be more annoyed.

In his mind, he went through the men Gao Shiman knew one by one, and none of them could match the number. It's not that he didn't think about Su Qian, but thinking about his wife's reputation, he directly excluded him.

He wondered if it would be himself, and when he thought of Aunt Du, he could only rule it out.

I only sat late in the study, and I didn't come up with a reason.

Gao Shiman is not as entangled as him, and he is happy these days. In the past few days, the stinky fish has also been pickled, just waiting for the tenth day of the new year to go to Daoxianglou for a banquet.

On the ninth day of the new year, Feng Qizhen asked her to see Su Jiarou, and she brought two stinky fish over. Su Qian is not here, Jia Rou is still embroidering the dowry, Gao Shiman doesn't know what is good to embroider, in accounting terminology, it is more important than form, just mess with these superficial things, there is really no need to spend a lot of energy to do it yourself. Although everyone has the right to pursue happiness, she really doesn't want to waste her energy on it.

Feng Qizhen helped Jiarou do embroidery work there, and Gao Shiman was bored, so he said that he would go to the kitchen to help them make food. How do you know that as soon as he left the room, he met Su Qian who came to look for him in the courtyard.

"Where have you been?" Gao Shiman greeted him.

"Here you go" Su Qian didn't answer, and handed her a jade pendant. She took it in her hand and looked left and right, it was about the same size as the one that was snatched away by Kang Shufang last time, a lustrous ring in the middle, two laces around the ring that looked like dragons and non-dragons, and a jade cicada with wings stretched above the head of the double dragon, Gao Shiman was full of joy, this jade pendant exuded a milky white jade light, which was only more than the last time it was robbed.

The jade pendant was tied with a red rope, and she looked up stupidly and asked, "Really give it to me?" ”

Su Qianqian smiled and nodded.

Gao Shiman said in his heart that this Su Qian is really a careful person, and said with a smile: "Thank you." He stood there and played with this jade pendant for a long time before taking it into his arms.

"Let's eat at noon, I'll bring a stinky fish and make it for you to taste," she said cheerfully.

"Stinky fish?" Su Qian looked puzzled.

"Hehe, it's not a bad fish, it's a fish that has been marinated in a special way to give off a stinky aroma, it's delicious," she explained.

Su Qian didn't know how it could be a stinky scent, so he could only nod.

Ling'er secretly pursed her mouth on the side, this Su Qian has the name of a wife, even if the young lady fights with him, she even accepts other people's jade pendants, what should I do?

Gao Shiman cooked the stinky fish, made a few dishes, and opened the meal in the dining room in the courtyard of Jiajiu, Feng Qizhen called Su Jiaxuan too, and the five people gathered around the table, smelling the smell of stinky fish, and discussing enthusiastically.

"This fish smells so good and fragrant," Feng Qizhen told the truth.

"Stinky and fragrant," Gao Shiman laughed.

"Isn't it delicious?" Su Jiarou wrinkled her nose.

"Eat, Shiman will not harm us" Su Jiaxuan smiled.

Everyone except Jiarou got off the chopsticks, and Feng Qizhen shouted: "It's delicious, it's delicious, cousin, try it!" ”

Su Jiarou saw that everyone showed a satisfied look, but she was still a little hesitant.

"You taste it," Kai Zhen was impatient.

"If she doesn't eat, forget it, we can just eat more," Su Jiaxuan teased.

Su Jiarou got off the chopsticks, took a bite and said, "It's really delicious, this taste is really special." ”

"That's, don't look at who did it" Gao Shiman's face was smug.

"Shiman, can you teach me?" Qi Zhen actually opened his mouth to learn.

Gao Shiman was surprised, last time she took the initiative to let Shen Lizhen learn from her, but she refused, she thought that the daughter at this time was proud of her identity and stayed away from the blistering kitchen, but she didn't expect this Feng Qizhen to learn.

"Do you really want to learn?" She wants to be sure.

"yes, can this be fake?" Feng Qizhen looked sincere.

"The last time I said I wanted to teach Lizhenxue, she scoffed at it, saying it was dirty and smelly," Gao Shiman began to complain.

"What's dirty and smelly, I'm going to learn anyway, you have to teach" Qizhen played a scoundrel.

"Okay, I'll teach you another day," she agreed.

After eating, Gao Shiman sent the remaining stinky fish to the Shen Mansion again. As soon as Shen Lizhen saw the stinky fish, he pinched his nose and said, "Oh, why did you bring a stinky fish?" ”

Gao Shiman glared at her and said, "Is this a stinky fish?" This is a delicacy, I made one for them to eat in Sufu at noon, and it was all snatched up, if I hadn't run fast, this fish would have been detained by them. ”

"No," Shen Lizhen didn't believe it.

"Don't believe me? I'll burn it for you at night, is Cousin Yan there? Gao Shiman sat down and poured a cup of tea.

"In; Let's go to my grandmother's to play mahjong," Shen Lizhen came up with an idea.

"Didn't the old lady take a lunch break?" Gao Shiman didn't want to fight.

"Let's go and see, bring this fish over, and eat it in the upper room at night" Shen Lizhen pulled her and left.

When she arrived at the upper room, the old lady had already taken a lunch break, and when she saw Gao Shiman coming, she smiled and said, "Come, let's play a few laps."

It's so helpless, it's playing mahjong again. Gao Shiman said to Ping'er Ling'er: "You guys go out to play, I don't have to serve here." ”

Ling'er was looking for an opportunity to tell Ping'er about Su Qian's gift of the jade pendant to Gao Shiman, so she hurriedly pulled Ping'er out.

Outside the courtyard, people were busy, Ling'er pulled Ping'er to the gate of the courtyard and stood up, and looked out again, seeing that no one was coming, the girls and women in the courtyard were far away, and said in a low voice: "What should I do?" ”

"What to do?" Ping'er is inexplicable.

At this time, Shen Lixing had bypassed the courtyard wall and came to the courtyard gate. He had good ears, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard two girls whispering.

"Today, General Su sent a jade pendant to Miss, what should I do about this!" Ling'er died in a hurry.

When Shen Lixing heard this, he couldn't help but stop.

"Miss has her own plans, what do you want to do?" Ping'er felt that the young lady was a hundred times smarter than them, and she would handle this matter well.

"Her plan is to marry General Su, how can this work?" Ling'er was furious.

Shen Lixing's heart was shocked, and his face turned blue.
