The banquet seemed to be held in a warm and lively atmosphere, of course, ignoring Madame Shi, who had a calm face from the beginning and did not say half a word.

Shuangzhi didn't think that Mrs. Shi would give her mother a good look, after all, she still had a mustard in her heart, not to mention that this edict made her expectations disappointed, and she was still a little resentful in her heart.

But when the banquet was over, when Mrs. Fu smiled and said goodbye to Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Shi still snorted coldly with a face, she had never looked at Mrs. Fu directly, and when she saw that her mother, who had always been noble and elegant, was treated with such indifference, she felt a little blocked in her heart.

What kind of spectrum is Mrs. Shi putting up, she wants to be superior but doesn't have that temperament, and Mrs. Fu is like this, even if she wears gold and silver, she lacks such an atmospheric character, why does she treat Mrs. Fu like this.

Shuangzhi pressed patiently displeasure and looked at Mrs. Fu.

Mrs. Fu just smiled and got into the carriage with Mu Qingying, "Master Shi, Mrs. Shi, let's leave first." ”

The sullenness in Shuangzhi's heart slowly precipitated when he saw the forbearance in his mother's eyes.

Mother is for her...... Only tonight was so forbearant of Mrs. Shi, even if Sister Shi Xianhui sarcastically mocked the Fu family with every word, her father and mother endured it, just so that she could gain a foothold in the Shi family.

After Master Fu and Fu Minxiu also said goodbye and left, Master Shi looked at the carriage that disappeared into the night, looked back at Mrs. Shi and Shi Can and shook their heads, "If you want to be above others, you should learn from others, what is the real family, what is the atmosphere." ”

Mrs. Shi was unconvinced and wanted to refute, but Master Shi didn't give her a chance, waved her sleeves, sighed, got into the carriage, and left the incense floating all over the building.

Shi Tuo took Shuangzhi's hand and whispered to her, "Are you tired?" Let's go back and rest. ”

Shuangzhi shook his hand back and nodded.

On the second day, the second day of the Lunar New Year, in the customs of Pujing City, today is also the Daughter's Day, Shuangzhi must go to Fujia with Shi Tuo to pay New Year's greetings, but due to their tight time, they went early in the morning and did not leave a meal, so they rushed back to Shi's house and began to prepare for returning to Jingzhao the day after tomorrow.

"Grandma, do you want to take this box with you?" Rong Lan was packing up things for Shuangzhi, and among the several boxes of dowries in Shuangzhi, there was a very inconspicuous black oil box, which was locked, and I don't know what it contained.

Shuangzhi's gaze fell on the box, and his gaze dimmed slightly, "Take it, the key is in the small cabinet of three dressers." ”

Rong Lan took the key, handed it to Shuangzhi, and looked at this box with a curious expression, it seemed that she had never seen such a thing in the grandmother's house before.

Shuangzhi opened the box, and inside were more than a dozen letters, neatly folded, and it could be seen that they were being kept very carefully.

Rong Lan was stunned, this ...... Isn't this the letter that Qin Gongzi wrote to the eldest young grandmother before?

Could it be that the young grandmother still has no feelings for Qin Gongzi?

Shuangzhi took out the letterhead, his fingertips stroked the handwriting on it, the faint scent of ink lingered in his nose, those things that he had only experienced with Qin Zixuan not long ago seemed to be memories of a long, long time ago at this time, and even began to feel blurry.

"Burn it, take these letters and burn them in the furnace." Shuangzhi put the letterhead back into the box, originally she wanted to keep a little memory about Qin Zixuan, but now she felt that some memories should be faded away, let him fade away, there is no need to forcibly keep something, and those memories of Qin Zixuan can be kept in her heart.

Rong Lan said with a smile, "The young grandmother only has the uncle in her heart now, so naturally don't keep these." ”

Is it because of Shi Tuo? Maybe a little, Shuangzhiguan'er, "Don't be poor, hurry up and pack your things, remember to bring all the big cloaks." ”

"Ah, slave and maid know." The young grandmother is most afraid of the cold, and these good fox furs must be brought.

Shuangzhi smiled, picked up the stack of letterheads, walked to the tripod stove in the corner, tore the letter and scattered it in the furnace, the spark was light, and the blue fire devoured what she once thought was the most precious memory of this life.

"Grandma, Aunt Lan is here." The red cotton lifted the velvet curtain and bowed to the double.

Aunt Lan is that Zhilan.

"Oh? Do you mean anything? Shuangzhi asked lightly, stopping the action of burning the letter in his hand.

"No, grandmother, do you want to beat her back?" Kapok asked.

Shuangzhi thought for a while and said to the Cotton Tree, "No need, I'll go meet her." Then he turned his head and called Rong Lan, "Rong Lan, you come and help me burn these." ”

Rong Lan put down the work in her hand and walked over to borrow the letter in Shuangzhi's hand.

Shuangzhi and Kapok walked out of the inner room and saw Na Zhilan in the flower hall.

"Grandma." Zhilan saw Shuangzhi come out and timidly saluted Shuangzhi.

Except for the tea ceremony that day, Shuangzhi has never been in contact with this Zhilan, and when I see her again today, my feelings seem to be a little different from the beginning.

Probably because he felt different about Shi Tuo, he also had some resistance to Zhilan.

"Aunt Lan, is there something wrong?" Shuangzhi sat on it and looked at Zhilan with a smile.

Zhilan is a typical kind of small jasper, petite, although her appearance is not outstanding, but it is a kind of weakness that makes people can't help but want to pity.

Men should like women like this, right? A cowardly and soft temperament like Zhilan is the kind of big man psychology that can arouse men the most.

"Grandma, the concubine has something to ask for." Zhilan knelt in front of Shuangzhi with a bang, crying, and looked at Shuangzhi with trembling eyes.

There seemed to be a streamer in his half-drooping eyes, "Oh? Aunt Lan, are you looking for the wrong person, the person who can make up your mind for you is not me, what can I help you? ”

Aunt Lan's eyes were slightly red, "I beg the eldest young grandmother to let the concubine follow you to the general's mansion, grandmother the eldest young grandmother, only you can help the concubine in this matter, please." ”

Shuangzhi said lightly, "Aunt Lan, shouldn't I go to the uncle and say, what can I do?" ”

"The eldest and youngest grandmother, the concubine also knows that her status is low, but ...... But if the master is gone, how can the concubine deal with herself here? I'm afraid that there will be no more cheap concubines here. Zhilan said in a choked voice.

"Could it be that if you don't go to the General's Mansion, you will be kicked out of the Shi family?" Shuangzhi asked with a smile, but she slandered in her heart, this Zhilan wanted to go to the General's Mansion with her, was it her own idea or someone instructed her? On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Shi Tuo had already made it very clear that he would not let Zhilan follow him to the General's Mansion, with Zhilan's cowardly nature, he was not like a person who would ignore Shi Tuo's words.

Aunt Lan's mouth moved, and the softer her voice became, "Grandma, the concubine is self-aware, and she will never dare to compete with you for love, the concubine will definitely keep to herself and will not do anything that makes you unhappy." ”

Shuangzhi chuckled, "What does Aunt Lan think I'm not happy about?" ”

Aunt Lan said cowardly, "The concubine will never approach the uncle half a step, just want to have a place to live, the young grandmother, the concubine can swear." ”

Shuangzhi stared at her and said lightly, "What do you swear?" Whether you approach the uncle or not is your own business, as for the place of refuge, if you really want to go back to Jingzhao with the uncle, you should go to the uncle and say, I can't be the master. ”

What does this Zhilan mean is that the reason why she can't go to Jingzhao is because she is so jealous that she is afraid that she will seduce Shi Tuo, so she will not allow Shi Tuo to take her to the General's Mansion? Such an obvious accusation even said that she kept to herself.

"Even if the eldest and youngest grandmothers don't let the concubines follow, the uncle still has other concubines in Jingzhao, rather than the eldest and youngest grandmothers fighting alone at that time, it is better to let the concubines stay by your side, and ...... when the time comes"

"Aunt Lan!" Shuangzhi shouted, "Do you mean these words, or did someone teach you to say them?" You have to be sure, what will be the consequences of saying such a thing, how many concubines does the uncle have in Jingzhao, and how I will get along with him in the future, can you ask the master? ”

Aunt Lan was obviously taken aback by Shuangzhi, she would never have imagined that Fu Shuangzhi, who had always been elegant and gentle, would be so cold, and for a while, she didn't know how to answer.

"Go back, you stay in the Shi family, as long as you don't make a mistake, no one will kick you out, the lord and the lady are not unreasonable people, you don't have to worry less, as for when to let you go to Jingzhao, the lord has his own decision, and it is not your turn to speak." Shuangzhi glanced at her and said coldly.

Aunt Lan bit her lip tightly, there was obvious relief and some resentment in her eyes, if she had to do it, she didn't want to come here today to beg the young grandmother.

At this time, Qiu Ping walked into the flower hall and said to Shuangzhi, "Grandma, two maids came to the side door of the backyard with the post of the Fu family, saying that they wanted to see you." ”

Shuangzhi glanced at Aunt Lan, who was still kneeling on the ground, gave Hongmian a look, and asked her to beat her away as soon as possible.

"Qiu Ping, you and I will go and have a look." Seeing that Hongmian got his own meaning, Shuangzhi smiled faintly and led Qiuping to the side door.

Shuangzhi had guessed what kind of maid ring Mu Qingying would find for her, and there were only a few big girl rings from the Fu family, but she really didn't think that Parsley would also be here.

Parsley has been with Mrs. Fu for several years, a few years older than Shuangzhi, and is a very effective helper.

There is another one who is Linglan, who is the big girl ring next to Mu Qingying.

Shuangzhi understood in his heart that Mu Qingying and her mother were worried about her, and because she was not worried about her, she let her most assured and powerful Yahuan serve her.

"Grandma." Parsley and Linglan saluted Shuangzhi, and there was some tacit understanding in their eyes that did not need to be explained.

Shuangzhi nodded to them and didn't say anything, "Parsley, Linglan, you're here." ”

At the moment when Shuangzhi and Xiangqin met, Hongmian also beat Aunt Lan out, and in this moment, Su Yinxue brought a few rings of silk to Shuangzhi.

The second door of the maid ring came in and said to Rong Lan, Rong Lan knew that Su Yinxue was a big celebrity next to Mrs. Shi, and she didn't dare to say no, so she asked Su Yinxue to bring in the silk horses, Su Yinxue saw that Rong Lan was burning something, and asked curiously, Rong Lan replied vaguely, and after putting the last letter in the stove, she beckoned a few little maids to quickly accept the silk brought by Su Yinxue.

Su Yinxue's eyes flashed slightly, and her eyes stared at the ground for a moment.
