Chapter 27: A Kind Heart

Mama Chen came over. be

She said in the courtyard, "Grandma, the old lady said that if this soup is not good, forget it, it will be the same if she doesn't eat it, so let you go back and talk to the county lord soon." ”

As soon as I entered, I found that Shen Zhan was also there.

The two people in the room stood with their backs to each other, and the atmosphere did not seem to be harmonious.

She was surprised, "Second master, aren't you looking for something, what's the matter...... Coming to the kitchen too? ”

Shen Zhan said: "I just heard that there was movement in the kitchen, and I thought that my sister-in-law had knocked over something, so I came to take a look." ”

Mama Chen suddenly said, "That's the case." ”

Song Yu also responded, "It's just right, the soup is already ready, please ask Mama Chen to help me bring it over to my grandmother to taste." ”

Mama Chen's attention returned to the soup smoothly and took it with a smile.

"Grandma must have done a very good job, and the old slave will go first."

"I'm with Mama."

Song Yu followed behind Mama Chen and left the kitchen quickly.

After entering the house, the old lady looked at her with a little more inquiry.

He smiled and asked, "Why did you go for so long?" ”

Song Yu served the soup without changing the color, "If this soup can't be cooked, it won't taste good, how about grandmother taste it now?" ”

The soup had already been handed to her, and Old Madam Shen scooped a spoonful with a smile and tasted it.

"Sure enough. The county lord also tastes it? ”

Song Yu had already filled another bowl of soup and handed it to Gu Ciyin.

Gu Ciyin took it, couldn't wait to taste it, and immediately praised Song Yu.

While the house was praising her soup happily, Shen Zhan came back from outside.

His face was light, no different from when he went out, and neither Old Madam Shen nor Gu Ciyin saw anything wrong.

Towards the end of this meal, Gu Ciyin suddenly said.

"I suddenly remembered that the Dingguo Mansion had only handed me a post two days ago, inviting me to his house for a banquet. I thought I wouldn't want to go without a companion, but now it's better to let Sister Yu ...... Let my sister-in-law accompany me? ”

Old Madam Shen had a smile on her face, and when she was about to respond, Shen Zhan vetoed it.

"No."

Several people at the table looked over in amazement.

Shen Zhan coughed lightly, "Sister-in-law is a widow after all, and she hasn't been out of the house, so I'm afraid it's not good to go to any banquet." ”

Old Madam Shen put down the spoon and wiped her mouth.

"The widow has been widowed for nearly three years, and there is no big problem. Since the accident in the Hou Mansion, we have almost cut off contact with other officials and relatives in the capital, and it is good to have Yu'er to walk around. ”

"If you want to move around, it is appropriate for your mother to go, and I am afraid that my sister-in-law will not have much effect if she goes."

"Your mother's character, you don't know it. She's always been a talker and a brainer, and if you let her go, what effect can she play?! ”

Song Yu hung her head and listened to the two of them doing Tai Chi, but she didn't say a word.

Shen Zhan didn't want her to go, Xu felt that her status would be a shame for the Hou Mansion.

Fortunately, she didn't want to go, wishing he could push the matter for her.

"Yu'er followed to see and see, firstly, to be a companion to the county lord, and secondly, to make friends with our Hou Mansion, the best of both worlds."

Old Madam Shen made a final decision, "Okay, this matter is decided." ”

It's a foregone conclusion.

Even Shen Zhan couldn't make the old lady change her mind, so Song Yu naturally wouldn't be overwhelmed.

After coming back, Chun Tao was even more nervous than she was when she heard that she was going to a banquet.

"Miss, the first time the slave goes to such an occasion, what if she says the wrong thing or does the wrong thing and causes you trouble."

Song Yu comforted her, "The last time I participated in such a banquet, my wife took me there when I was young. I'm only half a pound or two with you, don't be afraid. ”

“……”

Chun Tao became even more nervous after listening.

In the first two days of the banquet, he was already rummaging through the cabinets, preparing what Song Yu should wear that day.

Song Yu only cared about painting.

That pair of pine eagle pictures was postponed for so long, and it was finally sent out two days ago.

The shopkeeper sent a message from the shopkeeper, saying that the other party was very satisfied, and this time he gave three times the price.

With the accumulation of these few paintings sold, even if there is a little accident in the future, she will not be stretched.

Chun Tao took out a few clothes from the box and made a gesture on her.

"Miss, what do you think of this moon-white one?"

"Not bad."

"You didn't have many clothes when you were at home in the past, and you haven't made two clothes in a few years since you came to the Hou Mansion, so this moon-white look is still newer."

Chun Tao was chattering, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Mama Chen coming over with something out of the window.

"Grandma is free?"

Song Yu hurriedly cleaned up the paintings on the table, "Mama Chen, please come in." ”

Mama Chen entered the house with a smile, and the two of them saw clearly that she was holding a peach-colored dress in her hand.

"Isn't this going to the Dingguo Mansion to attend the banquet the day after tomorrow, the county lord is afraid that our grandmother will not have suitable clothes to wear, so he specially sent a new dress."

Song Yu smiled and asked Chun Tao to take it, "The county lord treats me like a sister, but I don't know how to repay." ”

Mama Chen was very satisfied with her attitude, "In the future, we will be a family, and we will have to say anything in return." The big grandmother is busy first, and I'll go back. ”

"Chun Tao, send Mama Chen."

Sent Mama Chen away, and when she came back, Chun Tao held her dress and looked at it carefully.

"Miss, this dress is excellent, it seems to be the most fashionable style in the capital now. Miss, don't you try to fit it or not? ”

Song Yu glanced at it, "Where to put it first." ”

Chun Tao carefully put away her dress and went to pack up other things.

On the day of going to the Dingguo Mansion, Chun Tao put this set of clothes next to the bed early.

When she got up in the morning and waited for Song Yu to finish freshening up, when she wanted to change her clothes, Song Yu said that she would not wear this set.

Chun Tao was stunned, "Miss, isn't this specially sent to you by the county lord?" And if we don't wear this set, where else do we have? ”

Song Yu smiled: "The moon-white one you took last time was very good, so wear that set." ”

Chun Tao didn't understand, but she never questioned Song Yu's decision, and immediately waited for her to change into the moon-white dress.

Mrs. Shen has not been in good health for the past two days, so Song Yu didn't go in to bother, just said hello to Mama Chen and left.

When I arrived at the gate of the Dingguo Mansion, the carriage of the county lord of Changle also happened to arrive.

Gu Ciyin happily got out of the carriage to find her, but was a little surprised when she saw Song Yu.

"Sister Yu, why didn't you wear the dress I prepared for you, didn't the people below deliver it to you?"

Song Yu smiled softly, "It's delivered, I'm about to thank the county lord." ”

"I like that dress very much, but it's a little smaller when I wear it, and I didn't have time to change it, so I didn't wear it."

"That's ...... That's the Way"

Gu Ciyin smiled far-fetchedly, and soon stopped talking about it.

"Sister Yu is good-looking, and everything she wears looks good. Shall we go inside? ”

"The county lord first, please."

Song Yu followed behind Gu Ciyin, hanging her head all the way, pulling Chun Tao and not letting her look around.

When it came to the banquet of the female dependents, Gu Ciyin naturally became the focus, and many people rushed to talk to her.

Song Yu was still with her at first, but then there were too many people around, so she consciously stepped aside.

"Song Yu? Why are you here?! ”

I don't want to, I can still see acquaintances here.
