Chapter Seventy-Nine: Gifts are sent to the door and refused
I was thinking about it in my heart, but I heard a familiar voice from outside the door, but with a sound, it turned out that the hand she was hiding in her sleeve couldn't help but tighten, until the palm of her hand was bloodied, and then she reacted, and she listened to the voice of Jiaoyue outside the courtyard gate: "If the young master wants to find the county lord, I will wait here for a while, and let the slave maid go in and see if the county lord is awake." ”
"I'm tired of the girl. Shen Songqiao's voice was still as gentle as in her previous life, like a mountain stream, which made people feel comfortable in their hearts, but it just fell on Hua Zhen's ears, but it made her feel cold.
The hand that pinched the letter unconsciously clenched the letter out of the folds.
Jiang Fu watched from the side and couldn't help but call: "County Lord." ”
"Out of the way. Hua Zhen closed her eyes when she heard this, restrained all the resentment in her eyes, and opened her eyes again to return to normal.
With a look on his face that made people unable to see joy and anger, he saw Jiaoyue coming in from outside with a snack, and asked softly, "Who is outside?"
"Back to the county lord, it was the eldest young master of the Shen family who came back, with a lot of things, saying that he had just come back from Shu, and he brought some of them when he saw that Shu brocade looked good, and I heard that the county lord was in the house, so he specially picked some good ones for the county lord to send over, and now he is outside the door. Kyaukyue said with an inquiring look.
To be honest, she didn't have any good feelings for the people of the Shen family from the bottom of her heart, so even if the eldest young master Shen came, she just nodded and answered, and then turned around and came back.
Seeing Hua Zhen's indifferent expression when she heard this, she didn't seem to be very interested in this Young Master Shen, and she was quite proud in her heart.
Immediately said softly: "County master, the slave maid told Master Shen that the county master is still resting. None of the people in the Shen family have good intentions, if the county lord doesn't want to see it, just ask the slave maid to send it away. ”
Hua Zhen nodded when she heard this: "You can go back, just say that I am still resting, if he has anything, just tell you." ”
Hearing this, Jiaoyue suddenly responded with a smile: "The slave is going back." ”
After speaking, he handed the things to Jiang Fu, turned around and walked outside.
Hua Zhen stood at the door and looked at the courtyard gate, her eyes were a little painful, and she listened to the voice of the bright moon outside the door respectfully with a little coldness: "Young Master Shen, our county lord is still resting, if you have anything, just tell the slave and maid, and when the county lord wakes up, the slave and maid will tell the county lord for you." ”
Shen Songqiao was stunned when he heard this, he heard someone talking in the courtyard, and he had some doubts in his heart, but he reacted in an instant, and then nodded with a smile: "Since my cousin is resting, then I won't bother my cousin, these things are gifts I specially brought to my cousin from Shudi, you can take them in first, if your cousin likes it, just go and tell me." ”
"The slave and maid thanked Master Shen for the county lord. Hearing this, Jiaoyue blessed her body, and then took the things held by Shen Songqiao's entourage, turned around and folded into Zhixiang Garden.
Shen Songqiao stood at the door and watched for a long time before leading the people away.
Hua Zhen has been standing at the door, because of the good weather today, she moved the interstitial screen in the courtyard room out to dry, just blocking the courtyard door. The outside can't see the inside, but she can see the people outside through the interstitial.
After watching Shen Songqiao leave, he turned around and went back to the house.
Jiang Fu and Jiaoyue have been following behind and didn't dare to say anything, originally today's county lord was still in a good mood, but since Shen Songqiao appeared, her mood seemed a little low.
Others can't see it, Jiang Fu and Jiaoyue can see it.
It's just that no one dares to ask.
On the other side, Shen Songqiao didn't see Hua Zhen, and as soon as he left Zhixiang Garden, he walked straight to Shen Yuyao's Furong Garden.
Shen Yuyao sat in the room, her eyes full of anticipation, and when she saw her brother coming in, she hurriedly smiled and greeted her: "How is it?
Shen Songqiao shook his head and stepped into the house.
The maid who followed Shen Yuyao smiled, and suddenly looked at her eldest young master, her face flushed with shame.
fell in Shen Yuyao's eyes, and couldn't help but glance at her fiercely.
But he was persuaded by Shen Songqiao: "Okay, don't be too strict with your subordinates, they will be afraid of you in the future, no one will dare to talk to you, and you will feel bored again." ”
While speaking, he glanced at Han Xiao meaningfully, and suddenly his face turned red with a smile, and he didn't even dare to look at Shen Songqiao, looking very cramped.
Shen Yuyao only felt very annoyed in her heart when she saw this, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What are you doing here, I didn't see my eldest brother coming, why don't you go and serve tea to my eldest brother, don't you even understand this rule, and I can't teach you well." ”
Immediately frightened, he smiled and responded: "The slave and maid don't dare, the slave and maid will go, and the slave will go." ”
As he spoke, he trotted away.
Shen Yuyao sighed at this time, looked at Shen Songqiao, and said with some annoyance: "Big brother, you are still happy at this time." She has always been in Zhixiangyuan, and she didn't go out at all today, you didn't see it, but I'm afraid that she deliberately didn't want to see you! I'll tell you, she's very powerful, and after only a few days of hard work, she actually bullied her father and grandmother, and now she has also asked for the title of county lord, and our entire Jin State Mansion will follow her. Big brother, you can see it now, you are her eldest cousin, but people don't even save you any face. ”
"Yu Yao, okay, don't worry, it's just a woman, and she is so angry with you. Why is it difficult to think that our Jinguo Mansion can't fight an orphan girl without relatives and no reason, and now it's just that her father and mother put up with her for the sake of the overall situation, which makes her a little proud, you just have to watch. Soon she won't be proud, okay, don't be angry, don't damage your identity because of a lowly person. Shen Songqiao said as he took out a hairpin of mutton fat and white jade and handed it to Shen Yuyao: "Do you like it?"
Seeing that Shen Yuyao saw the hairpin, her eyes showed joy, and she couldn't help but smile a little more, and grabbed her hand very dotingly, and put the hairpin in her palm.
"Okay, big brother promises you, I will definitely help you teach her a lesson, okay?"
With Shen Songqiao's promise, Shen Yuyao had a little smile on her face, and nodded: "It's almost the same, eldest brother doesn't know, I'm about to be angry with her these days." ”
"Okay, our Yuyao is not angry, there is no need to be angry with a lowly person, and she has lowered her status plainly. Shen Songqiao comforted with a doting smile on his face, and his eyes kept looking at Shen Yuyao, as if he was reluctant to blink.
Hua Zhen didn't know about the Furong Garden, so when she returned to the house, she sat in front of the dresser and opened Old Lady Ning's letter.
Seeing this, Aunt Zhou, who came in with her, asked softly, "Who is this letter from the county lord?"
