Chapter 60

Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves can no longer go over every day to visit Mrs. Shen and serve the decoction; Because Mrs. Shen worked too hard, she also added symptoms: although it was not serious, they could not help but serve in front of them as juniors; What's more, Shen Miaoge's parents can't serve Mrs. Shen's bedside, so the red-sleeved couple can only work harder.

Mrs. Shen has just taken charge of the power of the mansion for more than a year, and she is a strong character, thinking that there can be no mistakes, and she must make the Shen Mansion better than when she was in the hands of Shen Laozu; But after all, she is old, and there are so many things at once, and she is really difficult to deal with.

But she refused to say it explicitly, so as soon as Mrs. Shen fell ill, she was so tired that she lay down; However, Old Ancestor Shen still didn't ask anything in the Shen Mansion, and Mrs. Shen had no choice but to swallow herself; But things always have to be dealt with, and she can only call the Jiang family to her side and hand over some trivial matters in the house to her.

During her illness, she really didn't have the energy to take care of everything and everywhere; She couldn't trust any of the concubines, so she had to find her own granddaughter-in-law.

There was no objection to the Jiang family's temporary takeover of the Shen Mansion, which made Red Sleeves a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, he understood: the Jiang family has always been kind and unpunished to people, and such a person is naturally very good at fishing in troubled waters when he is in power.

Although Jiang has a soft temperament, she is self-aware, she has the heart to shirk, but when she saw her mother-in-law's sick face, it was really difficult to speak, and she couldn't do anything to take the errand; Eventually, she set her sights on Redsleeves and looked at her pleadingly, hoping that she would save herself.

Red Sleeves originally wanted to tell Mrs. Shen after the aunts left: You can't let the Jiang family be a single director; But when Jiang looked at her, all the aunts also looked over: there was no difference between what she said now and what she said later.

Second Mrs. Shen looked at the red sleeves and nodded lightly: she has her difficulties, and it is inconvenient to be the first to come forward and offend the concubines; But she can echo the red sleeves, she really doesn't want to see the Shen Mansion in a mess.

She is the daughter-in-law of the concubine, although the red sleeves are low, but she is the future mother of the Shen family; So Red Sleeves could speak about this matter, but she didn't dare to be the first to speak.

Shen Miaoge also quietly gave a look to the red sleeves, and then he spoke first: "It's best for my sister-in-law to share her grandmother's worries now, but my sister-in-law's body is not very good, and she is the only one to support her grandson, and I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will also be tired." ”

Mrs. Shen nodded and sighed slightly: But who else is available at the moment?

"That's what Sleeve means, why don't you ask your eldest sister and sister-in-law to take care of trivial matters together, so that you won't make a person too tired, and you can also make Mrs. Tai feel more at ease." The red sleeves offered ginseng soup on the one hand, and spoke to Mrs. Shen on the other.

Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up, but she hesitated slightly: Miss Shen Mengxi is just a girl's house who has not left the boudoir, is she okay?

Second Mrs. Shen gently stroked her palm at this time: "Fifth brother, what they said is very reasonable, which of us didn't learn to take care of housework when we were girls at home?" The eldest girl's wedding date is not far away, and she comes out at this time to experience the experience. ”

Mrs. Shen thought about it and smiled: "Yes, maybe it's old, right?" Now I look at my children and grandchildren, who are afraid that they can't do this or that, but they forget that we can do a lot of things at their age; If you don't let them do it, they won't be able to do it well, and it will hurt them if you don't let them work hard. ”

The matter was thus agreed.

Although the other ladies of the Shen family didn't say anything, they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts: although Miss Shen was just a girl, she was a person with a delicate heart; But they're not very afraid of big girls, after all, Mengxi is just a girl who hasn't come out of the cabinet, how powerful can she be?

It's just that in the future, if they want to fish in troubled waters to get some benefits, they have to be more careful and put more effort into it. Therefore, Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge gave advice to the Jiang family, which made them extremely unhappy.

Mrs. Shen smiled slightly: "Speaking of which, we're going to have a good time, right?" The fifth brother is going to perform the crown ceremony in less than a year, and their young couple should also go through the experience. ”

Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge's hearts were moved, but both of them looked back at their sixth aunt with a smile unchanged, but they didn't speak.

To count them? Later, the block and the water came to cover the earth - their little couple was really not afraid.

Mrs. Shen San also did not allow the two of them to speak: "Mrs. Tai, what the sixth brother and sister said is extremely true; Now there are people to take care of the trivial things in the house, but it is better not to worry about your body, it is better to leave the kitchen affairs to your sleeves - it is also a wise precept for women to start cooking in advance. ”

"The fifth brother also has to go through the experience, and the things in the books are dead at the bottom; I'll look at the tent room by the fifth brother for a month or two, so that Mrs. Tai can take care of it. Mrs. Shen's words followed very closely.

Mrs. Shen's face fell, how she didn't understand the thoughts of these people: "Sleeves didn't pay attention to things, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to hand over the affairs in the big kitchen to her all of a sudden; It's okay for her to look after it. ”

Sooner or later, the Shen family will be handed over to Red Sleeves and them, so Mrs. Shen doesn't care about letting Red Sleeves learn more.

"Mrs. Tai, even if there is any mistake in my family, no one will blame me; It's just that they have more experience, and besides, it won't be a big mess if you look at it. "Mrs. Shen's mouth has always been very clever.

Shen Miaoge glanced at the red sleeves, and then saluted Mrs. Shen: "Grandmother can rest assured that she is in charge of herself, and her grandson and sleeves should share your worries at this time; Even if we don't understand anything, aren't there still a few aunts? When the time comes, we will ask the aunts a lot, and the aunts will naturally not let Sun and Sleeve do anything wrong. ”

One sentence encircled several ladies of the Shen family: If there is anything wrong with us then, none of you will be able to escape.

Second Mrs. Shen spoke at this time: "Don't worry, Mrs. Tai, a few of us will mention the fifth brother and theirs." She spoke, and the other two could do the same.

Now even if the Jiang family and Mengxi do something wrong, they have to make a big mistake: what makes them angry the most is that they don't have any power yet!

However, when something goes wrong, their punishment is naturally small, and the big mistake still has to be borne by Red Sleeves and others; Therefore, although they were extremely unhappy in their hearts, they did not show it.

Mrs. Shen took a closer look at Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge, and nodded when she saw their eagerness to try: Give it a try, anyway, the house is already very chaotic now, what can it be like if it is chaotic again? At that time, even if the children do something inappropriate, she will bear it alone, and the old marquis and the old ancestor will not blame their children.

When the matter was finished, Mrs. Shen's ginseng soup was finished, everyone withdrew from the room and went their own way; Second Mrs. Shen stayed to take care of Mrs. Shen, which also reassured Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge a lot, and went to take care of themselves.

Even if Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge don't do things well, they won't be punished very heavily; It's just that in the future, after they have a small two-family round house, when they are in the council of the house, there will naturally be people who will use this to prevent them from taking charge of the account and the kitchen: there are only these two places in the inner house that can make some money.

First, they have not been exposed to these things, and secondly, now that Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen are sick, the hearts of the two of them are naturally not at peace, and the possibility of the director making mistakes is much higher.

Mrs. Shen San and Mrs. Shen Sixth are really good at finding the time.

Mrs. Shen's condition has stabilized, and Luohong has gradually stopped; It's just that the doctor said that even if she stopped falling red, Mrs. Shen's body was so weak that she couldn't get out of bed for a while.

After Shen Laozu and Mrs. Shen heard about it, they both told Mrs. Shen to take good care of their bodies, and they sent a lot of bird's nest and other things to the old house.

Red Sleeves thought of Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen's illness, and unconsciously sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "We need a master of Xinglin." "The third and sixth rooms of the Shen family are embarrassed by their affairs, and she doesn't care about them: it's just a kitchen and account room, so that one person can take care of it properly.

What she is worried about now is still the "body" of the masters of the Shen family: it turned out that the younger generations were all sick, why did it seem to be replaced by the older generation now? It's just a coincidence, and in case of ......, this matter cannot be prevented.

Shen Miaoge nodded, but did not speak: Where to find the master of Xinglin? Even if they find it, why should they be loyal to their two and a half children? The Shen family is the Hou Ye, and he can't act too publicly, and some things are easy to think about but extremely difficult to do.

The palace of the marquis has always used the imperial doctor in the palace, and there are no apricot forest masters in the major princely mansions in Beijing; Although there are no rules, this is a common practice, if the Shen Mansion wantonly looks for people in the medical path, it may really be used by people to attack their Shen family.

Red Sleeves looked at Shen Miaoge: "We can't wait, why don't we choose a few people to send to the Xinglin master, what do you think?" In the next few years, at least there is someone around us who understands medicine. ”

Although far water can't quench the thirst of the near, there is still an arrangement: you can't worry about this matter now, and you will have to worry about this matter in a few years, right?

Shen Miaoge's eyes nodded and agreed: He wants to discuss this matter with his father, but his father will not stop him. Seeing that Red Sleeves no longer spoke, he said sullenly: "I don't have much money left in my hand." ”

He was a small child, and his monthly income was only a monthly item, so naturally he didn't save much money; Moreover, he didn't know that he could go to the pawnshop and exchange things for money - even if he did, he wouldn't be able to be a pawn.

Although Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen don't use the two of them to pay filial piety, it is also filial piety for them to send some good things for the younger generation; He is the son of the long house, so it is naturally better to be more filial than others.

Red Sleeves tilted his head slightly: "Madame's illness is almost better, it's just a matter of recuperation; Mrs. Tai's illness here is not serious, and there is no shortage of good things in the house, as long as your heart is exhausted. ”

It was Red Sleeves who began to come up with the idea and asked Shen Miaoge to use his own money to buy things to honor his mother and grandmother, which was sincere: of course there was a deep meaning.
