Chapter 44: The Shen family compromised and gave a warning
Listening to Hua Zhen's words, the eldest lady only felt that her temples were jumping suddenly, and the only remaining patience was also consumed.
Staring at Hua Zhen's voice, he asked coldly, "How many imperial gifts do you have?"
Hearing this, Hua Zhen looked at the eldest lady with a smile: "The eldest aunt asked this, but it is difficult for me, the eldest aunt should ask me how many things are not royal gifts." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the bean curd on the ground, put it on the eldest lady's plate, and then put the chopsticks down.
"I don't think I saw what happened to my aunt today, my aunt didn't knock the bean curd given by the emperor to the ground, but this bean curd is the emperor's grace after all. If my grandmother, aunt, and uncle don't eat it, it will be a contempt for the emperor's grace, and even if I want to intercede with my grandmother, it will be useless. Hua Zhen said, looking at the second lady.
The second lady was suddenly frightened: "Zhen'er, good boy, this is the emperor's reward for you, the second aunt won't eat it, and keep it for you." ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but suppress the nausea that was turning up from his stomach.
Seeing this, Hua Zhen had to respond disappointedly: "Okay, in that case, I won't force my second aunt." ”
Shen Chongmao, who was on the side, saw it and couldn't help but say, "Zhen'er, my uncle won't eat it either, I'll keep it for you." ”
said that she was about to clip it back, but Hua Zhen exclaimed when she saw this: "Uncle, slow down." ”
But Shen Chongmao's chopsticks had already picked up the bean curd.
"What's wrong?"
"Uncle Xu doesn't know, this bean curd must be stored with non-oily utensils, if it takes up the oil, it can't be put away. Zhen'er just used the chopsticks of the cloth vegetables, and she used the chopsticks in a hurry, but uncle, you used the chopsticks that you had eaten, and this bean curd naturally couldn't be put back. As he spoke, he glanced at the eldest lady and said softly: "The eldest aunt's can't be put back, after all, the eldest aunt just hit her to the ground." ”
The old lady only felt a headache when she heard this, and when she looked at the fermented bean curd in front of her, she almost vomited out the stomach that turned upside down.
Immediately said in a deep voice: "What about me?"
Hua Zhen looked at it when she heard this, and then said with a smile: "Grandmother's piece is clean and not stained, it's okay." ”
Old Madam Shen breathed a sigh of relief, even if the disgusting hatred in her heart couldn't throw it away immediately, she could only be patient at the moment.
"Then grandmother, keep this piece for you, since it is a gift from the emperor, you can treasure it. ”
Hua Zhen made a difficulty: "But grandmother, this is a little bit of Zhen'er's heart, today Zhen'er came late and was rude to take it to make amends to her grandmother, if her grandmother doesn't want it, Zhen'er is afraid that she will be restless, and please don't refuse Zhen'er." ”
Old Madam Shen's patience at this moment was gone, her brows were furrowed, and she looked at Hua Zhen's eyes full of disgust: "Forget about this matter, since you are here, sit down and eat, as for this imperial gift, you should put it away." ”
Hearing this, Hua Zhen asked softly, "Grandmother doesn't blame Zhen'er for being late, does she?"
"Hmm. Old Madam Shen almost spoke from her nose, and she didn't even want to look at Hua Zhen.
When Hua Zhen heard this, she immediately thanked Mrs. Shen, and then put the bean curd back on the plate.
Then he handed the plate to Aunt Zhou: "Put it away for me, if I am rude next time, I will take it out to make amends to my grandmother, don't break it." ”
Jiang Fu listened to Hua Zhen's serious speech, and her heart was about to burst into tears.
Aunt Zhou was okay, she didn't see anything unusual on her face, she just nodded: "What Miss said is that the slave must be taken care of." ”
The Shen family on the side, hearing the conversation between Hua Zhen and Aunt Zhou, only felt disgusting and about to vomit.
They have always eaten delicacies from the mountains and the sea on the table, and they have never seen this kind of food.
Thinking that Hua Zhen would bring this out in the future, the second lady immediately couldn't hold back, covered her mouth and ran out of the flower hall.
The old lady frowned, and said to the maid on the side: "What are you doing here, why don't you go and take a look." ”
Hua Zhen sat down by herself, looking at the eldest lady and Shen Chongmao: "Uncle and aunt, don't be polite, please use it, I put this fermented bean curd there to make it moldy for more than a year, it is very delicious." ”
The eldest lady listened to Hua Zhen's words, and she couldn't help it.
I reversed my stomach several times, only to feel that my throat was swollen and a stream of acid water rushed up.
wanted to leave, but when he saw the old lady's iron-blue face, he couldn't help it, but he couldn't look at the bean curd in front of him anymore.
The five young ladies of the Shen family all looked ugly at the moment, no one expected that Hua Zhen could come up with such a plate of things, no one had ever seen it, and they didn't dare to speak.
Seeing that everyone was not moving, Hua Zhen was a little embarrassed, and asked the old lady: "Grandmother, didn't I come too late, you have already finished eating?"
The old lady didn't speak, and Shen Chongmao had a calm face: "What's the matter?"
Hua Zhen smiled when she heard this: "Uncle misunderstood, I just thought that if this is the case, I can't ask my grandmother to wait here, so I will let the maid bring a few dishes and I will go to Zhixiangyuan to eat casually." ”
At this moment, Old Madam Shen felt sick when she saw her, and nodded almost without looking at it: "Let the kitchen do what you want to eat." ”
Say goodbye.
Hua Zhen stood up and said respectfully: "Zhen'er thanked her grandmother. ”
After finishing speaking, he led Aunt Zhou to leave, looked at the bean curd in Shen Chongmao's bowl, and did not forget to remind: "Uncle, don't let down the delicacies given by the emperor." ”
As he spoke, he took someone away.
The eldest lady forcibly suppressed the nausea in her heart and looked at Old Madam Shen.
Shen Yuyao on the side said with some annoyance: "Grandmother, this Hua Zhen is really too much!"
Hearing this, Old Madam Shen's gaze swept over Shen Yuyao, and Shen Yuyao suddenly felt scared and didn't dare to say more.
Seeing this, the old lady looked at the eldest lady: "Let her eat in Zhixiangyuan in the future, and the province will be an eyesore." ”
The eldest lady was a little angry when she heard this: "Mother, she is so rude, do we still have to let her fail." ”
Seeing that the old lady's face was even colder: "If it weren't for your daughter begging, I wouldn't have asked her to come in, why don't you want me to come out now that you can't stand it!"
He stood up as he spoke.
After Hua Zhen made such a fuss, who still ate it, almost vomited all of yesterday's food.
Seeing the old lady leaving, the eldest lady looked at Shen Chongmao: "Grandpa Guo." ”
Shen Chongmao stood up with an angry face: "You don't go to Zhixiangyuan these days, don't forget that although the eldest sister is no longer there, this Hua Zhen was hugged by the emperor at the beginning, if she really went to the palace to slander the Shen family to the emperor." At most, we will be reprimanded, and there will be no side, for fear that it will affect Song Qiao's career. ”
