Chapter 175: A Life Like a Maggot
Zijin lowered his head and looked at her deeply: "Don't you want landscapes?" ”
Shen Shanshui, don't you want to save him?
Meijing was stunned, her voice choked in her throat, and she looked at him with teary eyes.
That's right, she still has to redeem the landscape.
Zijin's face became more and more blurred, and he was getting farther and farther away from her, and the world was spinning around, and suddenly the whole person came to his senses.
Sitting up from the bed, Meijing wiped her face, a little stunned: "The landscape is ......"
There were so many troublesome things as soon as she arrived, she even forgot about the landscape directly!
He should still be working as a horse slave in the horse farm under the name of Xu Fu, right?
immediately got up, looked at his red and swollen eyes in the mirror, and subconsciously slapped himself in the face, "snapping", not heavy, but enough to wake himself up.
If you're crazy, how can you be completely unable to control your emotions? I even thought of death. When she dies, what will happen to the landscape? What about the truth about Xu Zijin's death? Why is he so selfish, for the sake of his momentary pleasure, he wants to give up what he has insisted on for so long?
turned around and went to his small treasury to come out, counted it, and there was still a difference of more than four hundred taels of silver, I don't know if Xu Fu can get a discount.
originally thought that with Song Liangchen's face, he could directly fish people out, but now, he was afraid that he would be disgusted with her to death, so who could stand it if he didn't know how to lift up a woman who had other people in his heart?
Song Liangchen couldn't be trusted, so he could only see how to fight with the old lady of the Xu family.
After cleaning up her mood, Meijing washed her face, put on makeup, and changed her clothes. Raising his eyes again, the person in the mirror was the omnipotent Shen Meijing.
Before she finished everything, she was not qualified to say that she couldn't persevere, and the days were still long.
The first thing to do now is to go to Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu's maiden name is Xiulian, she is the most difficult one in this Xu Mansion, arrogant and domineering, and she can't bear others not doing things according to her wishes, so her face is flat all the year round, her head is wrinkled, and she ages faster than anyone else.
Rao is like this, this old lady is also willing to spend more money on her face, and she is reluctant to change herself.
opened the door and went out, and the two maids squatting at the door had red eyes.
"What's wrong?" Meijing raised her eyebrows: "What are you crying here?" ”
Jinyi and Yushi stood up together, Jinyi didn't say anything, and Yushi sighed and said: "The slaves and maids are worried about their masters, and they are still in someone else's house if they quarrel with the prince like this." ”
"Were there any outsiders here just now?" The view blinks.
Yushi shook his head: "That's not true, it should be heard by the two slaves and maids and Linfeng." ”
"That's fine." Meijing smiled: "Don't worry." ”
Jinyi bowed her head and said nothing, Yushi glanced at her, pursed her lips and said, "Where is the master going?" ”
"Go meet Mrs. Xu." Meijing said: "Stay in the brocade clothes, if... If someone asks where they went, they will reply and Yushi will follow me. ”
"Yes." The brocade should be.
Taking a deep breath and folding her hands on her abdomen, Meijing cheered up and walked towards the main courtyard.
How much does Mrs. Xu hate her? I wish she had died sooner, if she was happy one day, she would definitely think of ten ways to make her miserable, just because she felt that Xu Zijin was killed by her.
At the beginning, she believed the old lady's words for a while, and stupidly felt that she really hurt Zijin, so she suffered for many days and almost lost her life.
Until she saw a letter.
That letter was written by Zijin, and she still remembers it vividly. He said in the letter that someone in this house has been trying to harm him for a long time, and if something really happens to him one day, he will ask Zili to give her this letter, which is a suicide note, and wants her to live well.
It was after this letter that she had the strength to withstand Mrs. Xu's torture and persisted to this day.
"Madame!" The maid in the main courtyard saw her passing, as if she had seen her, and ran to the back room with a shout.
Meijing was not in a hurry, just waiting at the gate of the courtyard, and after a while, Mrs. Sun took Xu Zipei out and welcomed her in person.
"The princess is here, but what's the matter?" Mrs. Xu was lying on the soft couch, and seeing that she had only brought a maid, she didn't even have the idea of saluting, and her eyes were slanted at her, exactly the same as before.
Meijing smiled gently: "When I came back this time, I haven't officially asked you to say goodbye, so I should call my godmother in the end." ”
The old lady gritted her teeth, and there was no kindness in her eyes: "This is unbearable, who can be your godmother of Princess Yan?" ”
Meijing raised her eyebrows: "Is Princess Yan amazing?" ”
"Of course it's amazing, it's much higher than my four-grade fate."
Just waiting for these sour words, Shen Meijing nodded: "Since you are much taller, I don't see you get up and salute?" ”
The old lady choked, her face sank even more ugly, glanced at the jade food next to her, and saw that it was just a little maid, before she snorted: "Do you really think of yourself as a character?" I am your elder, and I am also the person who single-handedly achieved your current status, and I don't think about kindness like this, but I still have to get up and salute? ”
single-handedly made her where she is today.
Meijing nodded approvingly: "Speaking of which, I must also thank the old lady for forcing me to remarry Lao Yanwang, otherwise I would not have the position of my concubine today." I want to be grateful to you, there are really a lot of places, I don't know if I picked the honey with my bare hands, have you finished eating? ”
The old lady was stunned, and opened her eyes a little weakly, but did not answer this.
She was more of a spoiler than an achievement, telling her to pick honey with her bare hands, and see her swollen from being stung by bees. At that time, this was the only way to get a little out of the grief of losing Zijin.
Shen Meijing, who stabbed the honeycomb, if it weren't for Shen Shanshui who went to kowtow to the doctor twenty times, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to save it that day.
She really remembered everything, and she didn't forget it at all.
After a pause, the old lady changed her words and said, "Why don't you tell the princess what is the matter here?" ”
Shen Meijing took out a silver ticket of five hundred taels and put it in front of her: "I want to take the mountains and rivers away." ”
Glancing at the silver ticket with low eyes, the old lady smiled and said nothing, and Mrs. Sun next to her said: "If I remember correctly, the princess asked how much silver she needed to get rid of Shen Shanshui, and the old lady's answer was five thousand taels." Now what is the princess going to do with the five hundred taels of silver? ”
Meijing smiled, straightened her waist and said, "I don't have five thousand taels of silver, but does the old lady really want that much?" ”
Xu Zipei pouted: "If you have, why don't you take it out, who will be afraid of the lack of money?" ”
Nodding, Meijing took out a large handful of silver tickets, and drew another five hundred and put it in front of the old lady: "I heard that Young Master Xu has a career, and it is very likely that he will serve in the sixth department this year." But as far as I know, there are rules in the six departments, and those who are officials are not allowed to do business with relatives within the three suits, and the Zhang family is in business, right? ”
The faces of everyone in the room changed.
Xu Chongshan is an important minister in Zhongshu Province, even if Xu Ziwen has no interest, it is not too difficult to enter the six departments, as long as no one mentions the business affairs of the Zhang family, then Xu Ziwen will definitely be able to enter the six departments this year. Even if someone wants to report it, as long as the official position is lower than Xu Chongshan, it is not a big problem.
But what if Princess Yan goes up?
The old lady frowned and looked at her: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"It's not interesting, it's always distressing to give out the silver, so I'm just chattering." Meijing smiled very well: "Don't worry, old lady, there are still eight silver tickets, the second young master also participated in this year's autumn exam, the Xu family has always had a good relationship with a certain university scholar, and it should be good up and down, so I don't have to worry about it." ”
"Ah yes, there is also Miss Five, Miss Five should also get married this year, I don't know if the girl who has eloped with someone has been married in the capital, don't end up like me, only marry far away."
"Enough!" The old lady's whole face was blue, and her hands were propped up on the soft couch, almost unstable: "You don't need to say it, Shen Shanshui is in the racecourse, if you want to take people away, take two thousand five hundred taels of silver!" ”
Meijing raised her eyebrows, lowered her head and counted the silver tickets: "Then skip the matter of the eldest young master, the second young master and the fifth young lady, there are quite a few officials in the Xu Mansion who usually come and go, and they often bring a lot of gifts, some of them are heavy, I'm afraid they are gold and silver things, right?" ”
"I heard that the emperor is ordering the arrest of corrupt officials recently, and I don't know if I can catch two tigers out."
"Do you any good of doing these things?" The old lady trembled with anger: "Now that the Xu family and King Yan are in-laws, you expose us, how much better will King Yan be?" ”
"You don't have to worry about this, before exposing it, I will disassociate myself from the Xu family." Seeing her get angrier, the more lovely the beauty became: "Anyway, it's just a goddaughter who was temporarily recognized, I don't have any certificates, and I have never been allowed to enter your Xu family's household registration, which is a matter of one sentence." ”
"You ......"
Seeing the old lady's trembling body, Xu Zipei hurriedly went up to comfort her, glaring at her: "You woman, why are you so vicious, bullying the elderly, what kind of ability is it?" ”
Play the weak!
As soon as something happens, pretending to be a weak person when you ignore it, it seems that it is the usual method of this Xu family, bullying others and wanting to peel off people's skin and cramps, and as soon as others have a high momentum, they begin to pretend to be pitiful, and in turn accuse others of not, what is the difference between this kind of person's life and maggots? It's soft, and it's not disgusting.
Meijing was still smiling, and her eyes were full of unfriendliness: "I never said that I had the ability, but I just relied on a face like a fox spirit to win the favor of the prince, and I came back to the fox and fake the tiger." You don't need to do anything good, if you are not happy, I will be happy, what can you do? ”
She scolded herself first, Xu Zipei was short of words for a while, and she couldn't find the words to talk about her!
This person has been in the Xu Mansion for half a year, and somehow, he is so clear about the things in the Xu Mansion, and he can't get a bargain with her!
