Geng Xingshuang nodded lightly, indicating that she knew, and she sighed, "It seems that Sister Chan'er won't come tomorrow." ”

Geng Xingchen came to ask about the situation, and Geng Xingshuang told her about the situation that Jinbao encountered when she went to Shu's house, "It depends on whether Sister Chan'er will come tomorrow?" ”

On the second day, Jiang Xuefu came early, Shu Chan was the first to look for her, but Shu Chan's favorite was Geng Xingshuang, looking for her purely because she had great strength, and Geng Xingshuang had been to Shu's house, so it was cheapest to send posts in her name.

It's just that the three of them waited until noon, and Shu Chan didn't show up.

After lunch, Geng Xingshuang asked Zhujian to inquire about Shu Chan's eldest sister Shu Yuan and second sister Shu Xian, Shu Pingkuo did not let the third daughter go out, but these two daughters are already married, they will always know the news of their mother's family, and they can always go out.

It wasn't until late in the evening that the bamboo sword came and went.

"Girl, the eldest girl of the Shu family is married to Bao Xueqin, the eldest son of Bao Shi, the former prefect of Qiaocheng, but a few years ago, after Jiang Liaojiang commanded the envoy and served as the commander of the five southern guards, it seems that he had some holidays with the prefect of Bao, that prefect Bao is a timid person, he knows that the wife and sister of the Jiang commander are the concubines in the palace, so he thinks that he has a backer, and he is afraid that he will end up like the original prefect of Mincheng, not only ruined, but even has no bones, so he resigned from his official position in a hurry and returned to his hometown with his family to become a rich man."

Mincheng is the place where the eldest prince privately opened gold mines and iron mines, and the original prefect of Mincheng was not the eldest prince's person, probably because he was afraid that he would leak the news, so the eldest prince's faction first attacked to forcibly remove it and let his people go up.

After the prefect who died unjustly was severely punished by the eldest prince, his case was also turned over, and the remaining family children were also resettled.

But this little comfort can't make up for the huge damage that once was, and the owner is no longer there.

"Where is the Bao family's hometown?" Geng Xingshuang asked.

"In Xingzhen, outside the city of Ningdu, according to the news I heard, the Uncle Bao that Miss Shu married was a lifter, but after the exam, two consecutive sessions, plus this year's session is the third session, and the name of the test is Sun Mountain, so it is not allowed to be Shu Adult's blue eyes, Shu Lady rarely goes back to her parents' home, the most recent time is the first month of the New Year, even Uncle Bao participated in the Spring Festival, it is also an inn to live."

It seems that the relationship is indeed not good.

"However, Mrs. Shu will take Miss Shu to live in Xingzhen for a few days after a period of time, and Mrs. Shu has a Zhuangzi near Xingzhen, which is her dowry."

Geng Xingshuang nodded and asked, "What about Second Miss Shu?" Does she live in Ningdu City? ”

Zhu Jian nodded, "The husband of the second girl Shu is called Meng An, and he is a side branch of Yongqing Houfu, but the relationship with Yongqing Houfu is a little far, and he doesn't seem to have any contact with him for so many years. ”

Hearing these words in the Wupinlang of the Ministry of War, Geng Xingshuang immediately thought of her second uncle Geng Cheng, who was already dead.

She looked at the bamboo sword, "His current position can't be the soldier Langzhong who my second uncle tried his best to get but never got before, right?" ”

Zhu Jian nodded affirmatively, "The girl is amazing, I guessed it at once, and the little one still wants to sell it!" ”

Jiang Xuefu, who had been listening to the side and had not interjected, suddenly heard Geng Xingshuang mention Geng Cheng, and her heart was slightly weak, she looked at Geng Xingshuang, and then at Geng Xingchen, and saw that the two of them looked the same, Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister Shuang'er, Sister Chen, let's go and ask Shu Erniang, shall we?" Jiang Xuefu felt the need to change the subject.

Among them, only Jiang Xuefu has seen Shu Erniang, and Shu Chan cried like that day to find Jiang Xuefu, Jiang Xuefu couldn't see Shu Chan, and now it is natural to ask her second sister about the situation.

Jiang Xuefu was anxious, so she went back and wrote a post immediately, and asked her family to send it to Mengfu.

The weather is getting hotter, Mingshang Pavilion has begun to go to the summer clothes, Geng Xingshuang and Shu Qunxian have drawn all kinds of styles before, have all been made, although it is still spring, but the summer clothes are selling well, the clothes of the Mingshang Pavilion have always been characterized by novel and diverse styles, high quality but not luxury, although this year there is another painter who designs clothes, but every time Geng Xingshuang arrives at the Mingshang Pavilion, he is urged by Xiao's mother and Wen's mother to draw more styles.

These two mothers are better at saying good things than the other, although Geng Xingshuang feels that he is very determined, but he is still a mortal, in the praise of the two mothers, he almost lost himself, and finally had to promise to hand over three more summer clothes in this world.

Although Geng Xingshuang still left a hole and did not say the specific time, but she was the owner of Mingshang Pavilion, and she should be dedicated, so she was not only busy drawing by herself, but also left Geng Xingchen behind, and asked her to design a few more shoes suitable for summer.

The two sisters are busy with their own affairs, and the three maids of Jinbao Painting Curtain Bai Zhi are serving beside them, or playing with pen and ink, or helping to divide the line, or serving tea and pouring water, the room is quiet but very warm.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door outside.

"It's so late, and someone else is coming?" Geng Xingchen was a little surprised.

"Could it be the third aunt?"

"No, I told my mother, I'll rest at the sixth sister's place tonight."

As he was talking, there were already footsteps coming from far and near, and it seemed that they had come to find him.

Jin Bao went to open the door of the house first, and at this time there was also movement on the other side of the main house, and Geng Wen went to Zhuangzi again, so only Ruan came out alone.

"Second sister-in-law?" In the not too bright light in the courtyard, Nguyen could only see a silhouette, but she quickly recognized the person.

Geng Xingshuang Geng Xingchen was also taken aback when he heard Ruan's voice in the house.

"Is it the second uncle?" Geng Xingchen said softly.

Geng Xingshuang nodded, "It should be." ”

What is Yao doing here?

The Yao family was originally going to go directly to Geng Xingshuang's house, but now they were led to the main house by the Ruan family.

"Second brother and sister, it's so late, did you come here to find me?"

Nguyen asked after sitting down to serve the marigold.

"Sister-in-law, it's so late......"

Yao subconsciously took half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence was not able to be said for a long time.

Ruan didn't rush her, just waited quietly.

"Recently, did my sister-in-law go to say hello to the old lady?" Finally, Yao spoke, but asked such a question.

"I went twice, but Mrs. Bo didn't want to see me, so I went back, and I didn't go again." Ruan's expression was faint, and his answer was very direct.

It is true that Mrs. Bo did not see her, but the people in the main courtyard naturally did not say that Madame Bo did not want to see the eldest lady, but would find some reasons such as "Madame Bo is not feeling well today and has not gotten up yet" and "Madame Bo is still having breakfast", so that Ruan Shi can wait in the courtyard, of course, so that it will take more than half an hour.

Ruan gave Xia two faces, waited less than an hour, and left by himself, and then simply didn't go.

If this was placed in the past, the Xia family would definitely be looking for trouble, and punished the Ruan family on the grounds that the daughter-in-law did not ask her mother-in-law for unfilial piety, but since Geng Cheng died and Geng Shulou went to the north, the Xia family's anger that supported her to do whatever she wanted in the Bofu slowly dissipated.

Of course, it's not just that Mrs. Bo herself has lost that spirit, but also part of the reason is that Geng Xun, the second room is depressed, for Geng Xun, the big house and the third room, which he didn't pay attention to before, can be picked up and seen again.

Geng Xun pressed Mrs. Bo, which made the life of the third room in the big room quite calm and peaceful during this time.

"I go to the main courtyard every three days, and Mrs. Bo doesn't see me." Yao said, as if he didn't notice Ruan's indifference to the subject.

"Second brother and sister, you came to me so late just to talk about going to the main courtyard to ask for peace?" Ruan couldn't help but ask.

"So, my sister-in-law and I are treated the same in the main courtyard." Yao said to himself.

Ruan Shi was a little helpless, and he didn't speak anymore, just waiting.
