Chapter 70: The Second Lady's Apology
Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge were silent, just looking at Shen Wu and smiling; Now that their husband and wife are ten out of ten, it can be determined that there is definitely more than a misunderstanding and entanglement between Xilan and Shen Wu.
As the fifth master Shen spoke, he inadvertently saw the smile of the little couple, and stopped talking for a while, his face was flushed; With his shrewdness, of course, he immediately reacted to the little trap of Red Sleeves.
Shen Miaoge saw that the fifth uncle stopped talking, and said in a rambling voice: "It turns out that Mrs. Xilan is a hard-working person, so you really have to find someone who knows the cold and the hot to take good care of her, don't you say, sleeve?" ”
Redsleeves smiled and nodded, but didn't speak.
Fifth Master Shen glared at the red sleeves: "Even you were taken by the five boys, even your uncle dares to ......" The latter words were not spoken, and he was embarrassed to say it.
Red Sleeves just said softly: "Fifth uncle, we are just worried about you; It's not a way for you to live like this alone, even if you feel nothing, those of us who are juniors are not at ease; She paused and smiled: "The two of us, I don't want to have only one uncle to love, but also one more aunt to love." ”
Fifth Master Shen opened his mouth, and finally shook his head with a long sigh: "I know your thoughts, it's just-; He shook his head again: "Don't say it, you don't understand it; It's just that now the second sister-in-law and the seventh brother and sister are mentioning family affairs, and they always have to find a way to push it off; I'm an old man, marry a teenage girl, what are you talking like! ”
Shen Miaoge just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Red Sleeves.
It's not that they don't understand, but that Master Shen himself is confused; Some things are better to go with the flow, and the red sleeves make it impossible for Shen Miaoge to open his mouth to persuade Shen Fifth Master again.
Red Sleeves said with a smile: "Fifth uncle, it's still the same sentence, let you see you; After the meeting, if your uncle doesn't agree, who can force you to marry someone else? ”
Fifth Master Shen shook his head again and again: "I'm afraid that I can't shirk it after I see it." ”
Red Sleeves smiled faintly: "What can't be shirked, my uncle thinks too complicated; As long as my uncle thinks and does things simply, it will be done. ”
Fifth Master Shen glanced at the red sleeves, lowered his head and thought for a while and smiled: "I, a person who has been 'touching' and rolling for decades, is not as good as my nephew and daughter-in-law." He couldn't figure it out because his heart was 'messed up'.
Otherwise, if he gets up and leaves now, who will be able to tie him back after all the years? But this time, the fifth master didn't think to come.
As he was talking, the curtain was opened: "Fifth brother is also here?" The sixth lady smiled: "It's just right, then before I go to the ancestor, it's okay to talk to the fifth brother." ”
Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge got up to greet the sixth lady: "Why did Auntie come over at this time?" ”
Fifth Master Shen's face changed slightly: "My good brother and sister, don't embarrass your fifth brother at this time." ”
The sixth lady smiled: "How can I be embarrassed, it is the same as the meaning of the big guy, I just care about the fifth brother; She turned her head to look at Red Sleeves: "I'm here to discuss with you about your fifth uncle's family affairs, I don't want your fifth uncle to be here, but it saves me from running around again." ”
Fifth Master Shen complained bitterly: "Sixth brother and sister, you just spare the fifth brother, the fifth brother is already very troubled." ”
Red Sleeves let the sixth lady sit down, turned around and smiled: "Fifth uncle, if the sixth aunt wants to embarrass the uncle, she will go directly to the ancestor." ”
Fifth Master Shen immediately understood, and a little blush flashed on the old man's face: What's wrong with me in the past two days?
The sixth lady glanced at the fifth master, then glanced at the red sleeves, clenched her fist and waved it gently: "How is it?" Is there a play? "She was asking about Sheeran and the Fifth Master.
Red Sleeves nodded lightly and smiled: "A few points." However, what kind of family affairs does the sixth aunt want to mention to the fifth uncle, which of your relatives is it. ”
The sixth lady smiled: "My family doesn't have so many relatives of the same generation who are not married, so it is just a family in Beijing that has some dealings with her sister." ”
Red Sleeves took a deep look at the sixth lady when she heard this: she is not a person who likes to play with your lady, and several of her girlfriends are also known to Red Sleeves, and she has never heard of any of them having a sister; If it was just a general acquaintance, the sixth lady's family matter was very insincere.
Eighty percent of the meaning of the sixth lady is for the same light and dust: in previous years, the concubines proposed to the fifth master, but this year, the second and seventh children have mentioned it, if she doesn't mention it, she seems to don't care about the fifth master, and it also makes the concubines think that she is fake Qinggao.
Red Sleeves sighed lightly: "Auntie's family affair is really dispensable." ”
The sixth lady glanced at the fifth master with some embarrassment: "After I heard you mention that Mrs. Xilan, where do you want to make trouble for the fifth brother?" It's just, alas, that's how life is going on in everyone's life. ”
Fifth Master Shen arched his hand: "Speaking of which, it's because I caused trouble to the sixth brother and sister." ”
The sixth lady waved her hand again and again: "What is the fifth brother talking about?" I was originally tempted to find a good girl, but before I could find it, the fifth brother went home. She didn't speak further, but changed the subject: "I still have to say it in front of the ancestors, and the fifth brother should take care of it." ”
Fifth Master Shen smiled bitterly and nodded: "However, you won't also invite other girls to come to the mansion to walk around, right?" ”
The sixth lady hurriedly shook her head: "Although they are not big families, they are also famous people with surnames, where will the girls who have not left the cabinet come out and walk around?" Fifth brother, rest assured, as long as you say a word, I will mention it here. ”
After the fifth master Shen nodded, he got up and said goodbye: "Let's talk, I still have some things to do, so I'll go first." ”
Everyone sent the fifth master back, and the sixth lady shook the handkerchief and fanned the wind: "This day, it is really hot, as if God is also here to join in the excitement of the fifth brother." ”
Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge laughed, but the sixth lady had twelve points of contempt for the second lady and the seventh lady to invite their own sister to come, but they didn't say it.
After inquiring about Xilan's personality, the sixth lady stroked her palms and said: "I really want to meet this strange woman, if I can meet her and be a concubine, it will also be a great joy in life." ”
Red Sleeves remembered what the second lady said to Mrs. Shen, and laughed: Not everyone is like what the second lady thinks, she doesn't count the thoughts of the people in the Shen Mansion.
When it was almost dinner, Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge heard a piece of news that made their husband and wife a little unbelievable: Tomorrow, the second lady's cousin and mother will come to visit the house.
Xiao'er, who came to pass the word, said: "The old ancestor asked me to come over and tell you, so that you can prepare two more tables for tomorrow's banquet." ”
Red Sleeves nodded in response, and after a few gossips with Xiao'er, he sent her back to Shen Laozu.
Red Sleeves smiled bitterly and said, "Ming'er won't the cousin of the Seventh Lady come too, right?" What kind of thing is this, I really don't know what the second aunt wants to do! ”
Although he became more and more dissatisfied with the second lady and became more and more suspicious, Red Sleeves always had a little hope, it was he and Shen Miaoge who thought wrong and wronged the second lady.
Shen Miaoge stroked his palms when he heard this: "That's good!" Since there are already two of them, you might as well come to both! He was annoyed in his heart, and immediately sent Yunxiang to Mrs. Shen to deliver the letter.
He wanted his mother to speak, and asked Old Ancestor Shen or Mrs. Shen to invite the cousin of the seventh lady to come over tomorrow.
Mrs. Shelan is coming tomorrow, although she didn't say that she came for Master Shen Wu, but everyone understands what she means; At this time, the second lady insisted on inviting her cousin too, what is this?
Show Mrs. Sheeran's face? If Mrs. Xilan misunderstood what Shen Fu meant, she would never pester Fifth Master Shen anymore according to her "nature".
It was impossible to stop the second lady, and it was impossible not to let Sheeran come; It's better to invite all the people who want to give Shen Fifth Master a blind date, so that Xilan thinks that this is a special banquet, instead of thinking that the second lady's cousin is Shen Wu's wife's wife, which is much better.
Of course, it's not a very good idea either.
Shen Miaoge "rubbed" her head and looked at the red sleeves: "Send a letter to the fifth uncle, we can't say anything to Mrs. Xilan; If the fifth uncle can treat Mrs. Sheeran better tomorrow, it can be regarded as a kind of recognition. ”
Red Sleeves nodded lightly and sent Zhao to speak to Fifth Master Shen; Then he thought for a while and said, "Let the eldest sister go and tell Mrs. Sheeran that the children are unscrupulous, and we adults will be so round when they say right and wrong." ”
Shen Miaoge thought for a while and said, "It's okay, it's best to be able to say it." ”
Red Sleeves suddenly wrenched his fingers and smiled: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with not saying it, just look at how deep Mrs. Xilan's affection is for our fifth uncle; The heart of the fifth uncle is not something that ordinary women can enter. ”
Shen Miaoge laughed and sneered at the red sleeves, and then the husband and wife carefully discussed the intentions of the second lady, but they didn't have much worry about the affairs of Shen Wu's master: because Shen Wu's master was already tempted by Mrs. Xilan, and the second lady didn't calculate this, right?
Mrs. Shen sent the news after dinner that Mrs. Shen had sent a post to invite Mrs. Seven's cousin, mother and daughter, to come to the house to play together tomorrow; and asked the Sixth Lady to invite her friend's sister to come with her - but the Sixth Lady pushed it away.
Red Sleeves rearranged the banquet and changed the place of the banquet, so that people could rearrange it: the servants and women were busy until the middle of the night, so naturally they had some complaints about the second lady.
But the second lady came in the evening, and when she came, it was not early; Because Red Sleeves has a lot of things to arrange, she and the girls are busy and don't sleep.
The second lady had only come to apologize: she did not know that tomorrow was the day of Mrs. Sheeran's visit, and had sent someone to ask her cousin, mother and daughter, that they would be free tomorrow; She thought that it was impossible for Mrs. Sheeran to visit the palace so early when she first came to Beijing, so she agreed.
