Chapter 30: Returning to the Door
Shen Xinyue listened, pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said with a smile: "I see." You guys really put your heart into it. Didn't disappoint the princess. The purchase of these items will really tire you, look at you sweating profusely, Si Qi, look at the reward. ”
Although Si Qi was reluctant, he still rewarded the three people with some small money prepared in advance according to the princess's wishes.
The three of them took the reward and thanked Shen Xinyue repeatedly, and then left in a hurry.
Walking to a place where Shen Xinyue could no longer see, Deng Liu'er couldn't hold back her laughter, her voice was full of pride, "I'll just say it, you don't have to be afraid." And what else she said she wouldn't believe. You see if she believes it.
Listen to me. I'm betting she doesn't know any of this, otherwise where did her 'straw bag' name come from? That's not going to be groundless.
Don't look at her majesty that day, it's just that she has some eldest lady's temper.
is this kind of person, carry her on two sedan chairs and pat her on the back, she doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and she can't make a fortune by mistake. ”
Hu San'er and Hu Si'er also changed their frightened appearance just now, and they kept patting Deng Liu'er one by one.
Hu San'er: "Sixth brother, you are still powerful." In a few words, the mother - cough cough - the princess was stunned. Our buddies admire it from the bottom of our hearts. ”
Hu Si'er: "That's it." Sixth brother, this is a big list this time, but it's really fat, and it's been done in the past few years. I didn't expect this to be replaced by a new princess, and this matter is easier to handle. ”
"But, sixth brother," Hu San'er suddenly looked embarrassed again, "You said that if the old princess knew about this, would there be something wrong?" ”
Deng Liu'er glanced at him and said disdainfully: "You know this matter, I know the heavens and the earth, how can the old princess know?" Besides, if the new master doesn't deal with the old princess, she will never tell it herself.
What kind of pomp is her doorway? Except for the emperor's, I'm afraid there is no second one in this world. She dared to go to the old princess and tell her about it? That's impossible. Don't worry, don't be afraid! ”
This Deng Liu'er is a distant relative of the old princess, but he is a master who only recognizes money and does not recognize people.
This person is calculating, bold, and unscrupulous in order to get money, except for not pit himself.
All the things he has done over the years have made him pluck his feathers, and he really didn't put the money in the house into his pocket.
By his analysis, Hu San'er and Hu Si'er had no worries at all, and pulled Deng Liu'er and said, "Let's go, sixth brother, my brothers invite you today, let's go out for a big meal." ”
Seeing these three thieves and rat-eyed guys go out of the yard and disappear without a trace, Si Qibai glanced at them, still a little puzzled, "Princess, the price of those things they purchased is simply sky-high!"
Although I don't know the market for some extremely valuable items, most of them are somewhat knowledgeable. What kind of high-quality goods in the official shops, I think they must have a problem. Why don't you pursue them and give them a reward? ”
Shen Xinyue's phoenix eyes narrowed, her eyebrows raised slightly, and said, "You don't know this, let's learn it slowly." ”
Si Qi looked at Shen Xinyue's confident appearance, and he calmed down in his heart.
After the return ceremony was completed, after Shen Xinyue and Huo Weilou returned to the door was set, they sent someone to notify the Shen family in Jiangnan.
Jiangnan Shen family
Shen Chusheng, a person from the south of the Yangtze River, has a human face and a beast's heart, although his ancestors have been in business for generations, and the industry involves many fields, but the scale has not been large, and he is only a small rich.
Later, he happened to meet Song Ruyu, Song Ruyu is a typical Jiangnan girl, a small jasper like a small family makes people feel pitiful, Shen Chusheng saw it at a glance, and was obsessed with it.
Later, he inquired that Song Ruyu was the only daughter of the Song family, a silk family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the pearl of the second elder of the Song family, and he couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart, and married Song Ruyu into the door by all means.
Later, he inherited the industry of the Song family as he wished, and became one of the wealthy merchants.
Although he inherited the grace of his wife, he quickly revealed his true face and vividly interpreted the crossing of the river and the demolition of the bridge.
Because Song Ruyu is kind, simple-minded, and thinks about giving birth to children for him and taking care of family affairs, but he doesn't know how to drill into a man's mind and doesn't know how to please, Shen Chusheng quickly liked the new and hated the old, and took the charming and moving Liu family who was good at pleasing men, and took him as a concubine.
This Aunt Liu is the most obedient and sweet-tongued, and she is a master who welcomes her will.
Today, seeing Shen Chusheng holding a letter in his hand, with a look of displeasure on his face, Aunt Liu hurriedly stepped forward and gently dusted his sleeve with a towel, and said, "Master, which one of these non-long-sighted people has blocked you, I don't know if you are tired enough to manage such a big business every day?" ”
After speaking, he called someone to quickly make tea for Shen Chusheng, poured it himself, blew it, and then brought it to him, "Master, take a sip of tea." ”
Shen Chusheng sat down, drank tea, and said, "Do you know who this letter is?" It's Yue'er's idiot. ”
Aunt Liu's eyes flickered, and a look of disdain appeared on her face, "Ouch, this Yue'er finally remembered this family." You said that you have been married for a long time, and there is no news at all. This is really the water spilled by the married girl. ”
Not to mention it, Shen Chusheng was even more angry and slapped the table, "It's just a waste." At the beginning, you also said that she might be able to come in handy when she became a relative, pointing to her to the regent's mansion, even if she is an idle son, this daughter is not raised in vain.
Look at it, after being in the Regent's Mansion for so long, don't say it's her, and even the people who married over there haven't sent any news back. Something that's going home! ”
Aunt Liu asked, "Then what did she say in her letter at this time?" ”
"Said she was going back! This useless thing, what are you doing back to the door?! Raw things block me. Shen Chusheng said angrily, the more he looked at the letter in his hand, the more unpleasant it became, and he threw it out at once.
"Don't be angry, if you want to go back, let her come back. Even if you get married, you are still your daughter, and you should be taught a lesson.
When we married her off, in addition to those dowries, we also married a house in the capital, if she can't help the family at all, it won't be a big loss! ”
Thinking of the mansion in the capital, Aunt Liu's anger didn't hit one place, and she hated it so much that the roots of her teeth itched.
According to Aunt Liu's original plan, just give a little dowry to deal with the past, anyway, Shen Xinyue has always been an idiot except for her appearance, and she married early and had peace of mind, she really didn't expect her to help the Shen family much, she just fancied the name of the regent palace.
However, Shen Chusheng didn't listen to her in this matter, and still felt that the child was reluctant to catch the wolf.
finally fell on the big tree of the Regent's Mansion, what he fancied was the name of the Regent's Mansion, and what he liked over there was his wealth and Shen Xinyue's beauty, if he married too shabby, with Shen Xinyue's name of "straw bag daughter", he would not be able to do this family affair.
The "child" was given up, but the "wolf" was not.
So when Aunt Liu mentioned the capital mansion, Shen Chusheng was even more furious, "Stupid people are really stupid." At the beginning, I repeatedly taught her how to spread the news to her family, how to blow more pillow wind over there, and how to coax her mother-in-law, but she didn't care about it. Seeing her come back, I don't want to teach her a lesson! Hum! ”
Shen Xinyue's mother, Song Ruyu, heard it from the people by chance two days later, and learned that her daughter was going home to save her relatives.
The daughter was originally the meat of her mother's heart, and Song Ruyu was unwilling to marry her daughter to the capital far away from home.
The daughter is with her, she is kind and cowardly by nature, she has no scheming, she marries so far away, if she is bullied, there is no one around her to talk to complain.
However, she never could be Shen Chusheng's master, so she had to watch her daughter marry away with tears in her eyes.
These days, Song Ruyu has not been thinking about her daughter every day, and now that there is news, most of her hanging heart has finally been let go, waiting for the day when her daughter returns to the door.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it's time to return to the door.
When Shen Xinyue got off the carriage, stood in front of the Shen Mansion, and looked at the closed gate, the memory of the original owner in her mother's house seemed to be summoned by some kind, and it returned little by little.
It was an uncomfortable feeling, even a little tingling.
Shen Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to knock on the door.
She had already told Huo Weilou and them on the road, let Huo Weilou stay in the carriage first and don't make a sound, she wanted to go back to her parents' house first.
Although Huo Weilou was surprised, he said that he would obey his wife's orders.
After a few knocks, a lazy voice came from the house, "Who is this?" Knock what knock? ”
The door was slowly opened, and a subordinate poked his head out and asked impatiently, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"What? Don't know each other? Shen Xinyue searched the memories of the original owner and knew that this was the doorman of the Shen Mansion, the person of Shen's father's concubine, Aunt Liu.
In fact, the doorman had already known that Shen Xinyue had returned to the door today, and it was Aunt Liu who arranged for him to deliberately close the door to give Shen Xinyue a chin.
He pretended to look at it twice, as if he had just remembered, "Oh, it's the eldest lady who is back." Come on in. ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked inside, leaving only that gap for Shen Xinyue to enter.
In ancient times, the doors of large families were thick and heavy, and it was difficult to open them with the strength of a woman alone.
Shen Xinyue looked angry and was thinking about how to teach such a guy who looked down on people when the door was opened.
Those who opened the door and came out were Shen Xinyue's brother Shen Wangchi and her mother Song Ruyu.
Song Ruyu, who waited for her daughter to wait for her anxious heart, saw that Shen Xinyue was standing in front of her now, and she couldn't hold back the longing in her heart, so she hugged her in her arms, and her tears couldn't stop flowing, "My Yue'er, my mother misses you so much, you married so far away, but you suffered, my hard-working daughter......"
Every word was sincere, and the tears that kept pouring down also wet Shen Xinyue's shoulders.
Although Song Ruyu has nothing to do with Shen Xinyue, she is the mother of the original owner, and she and the original owner have long been one, so she unconsciously followed the tears like rain, gently stroked Song Ruyu's back and comforted: "Mother, don't cry, isn't Yue'er back?" Yue'er didn't suffer, Yue'er was fine. ”
Shen Wangchi has loved his only sister very much since he was a child, and seeing that she is now standing in front of her intact, without the appearance of being bullied as she imagined, he also wiped his tears, and then smiled, "Okay, don't cry." Yue'er is fine, Yue'er is fine, Yue'er is fine. You don't know, Yue'er, these days, my mother washes her face with tears every day at home, and she misses you very much. ”
"What are you crying about? Standing at the door of the house early in the morning and crying, are you depressed? Yes? It's something that doesn't make people worry. ”
Shen Chusheng's obviously angry voice came from the mansion.
