Chapter 83: It's All Coming
The next day, the sun was fine, the weather was hot and steaming, and the cicadas in the Lemon Fragrance Pavilion were singing one after another.
Shen did pick out a moon-white dress, sat in front of the makeup and habitually put on light makeup for herself, Zelan stood aside and looked at her in a daze, she compared the painting for a while, raised her hand and put it down, and said: "It's better for you to come, it's good to be suitable, regardless of the shade." ”
Zeeland let out a "huh" and rolled up his sleeves and began to get busy.
I haven't put on makeup for a year, and I am indeed a little rusty, Shen Cheng only feels that she is now like being reborn, she doesn't want to live as cautiously as before, she is low to the dust everywhere, and she doesn't want to be humble step by step, she wants to live for herself in this life.
It's the prime of youth, if you don't dress up beautifully, wouldn't it be a waste of this look.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Shen did feel that this year, Li Luansong had properly raised her with red lips and white teeth, full cheeks, and ruddy face, which was really a good look.
Zelan said: "Although the lady has healed from her injuries, she is an injured person after all, and it is not advisable to go out today to be tired, and thanks to your diligent exercise this year, this is the recovery is very fast, you look at this face, white and tender, how beautiful." ”
Shen Qu nodded and said, "Yes, I must continue to practice in the future, my health is my own, and I can't be negligent." ”
Zelan nodded yes, but he was embarrassed: "The lady will not let the carriage and horses of the Zhang family be alarmed, the day is big today, if the lady does not sit for a while, the slave and maid will go out and rent a car and come back, which will save you fatigue." ”
Shen did say no, "It's not so squeamish, just walk a few steps and don't get in the way, just sit on the car and horse." ”
The master and servant went out together, and as soon as they walked out of the yard, they saw a car parked at the door, which was very familiar, and the coachman heard the movement and quickly jumped out of the car, and stepped forward with a smile to say goodbye:
"The lady is out, the villain has been waiting for a long time, the lady, please get in the car."
Shen was surprised, and before he could ask, the man explained: "The villain's name is Ah Wang, and it was Prince Mutam who asked the villain to wait for the lady here." The prince said that the lady has an injury and can't be too tired, and you must be an idle character, so let the villain follow you these days, saddle before and after the horse to serve the lady, you have something to do although you command, the villain has experience in doing things, and you can do it properly for you. ”
It's really a heart, he even thought of this layer, Shen did look at the hot sun above his head, and thought about it, in short, it was also his kindness, Zuo just wanted to ask her to agree because of what he said yesterday, and make up for it later.
Then he said, "Then there is Rau Awang." ”
The master and servant boarded the car, and tea was already prepared in the car, not only warm tea but also milk tea that she said was delicious yesterday, and even refreshments and snacks were not lacking.
Zelan handed the cup to her and muttered, "This prince of Mutam looks straightforward, and his mind is quite delicate. ”
Shen Qu said: "He is not a straightforward person, the people who grow on the grassland are born to deal with the natural world, and their perception and sensitivity are much stronger than ours, they pay the most attention to details, their minds are more delicate, and they are more alert." ”
Zeeland took it to heart thoughtfully.
Shen did not pay attention to her small movements, and lifted the curtains all the way to look at the streets on both sides, only one day's work, the liveliness of Jin'an has recovered most of it, the street vendors, shopping, neighbors and acquaintances talking, laughing and greeting, as in the past.
This is the world of those who win people's hearts, everyone seems to have forgotten yesterday's unpleasantness, and live a life with peace of mind and steadfastness.
The car stopped at the door of the old mansion, and when Shen Fu entered the door, Shen Fu was busy moving books with a sweat, and Ah Wang quickly went over to replace him, shouting "master" one by one, making Shen Fu a little dazed.
Shen did say that it was the person who Prince Mutam lent her to use, "It's just that moving is busy these days, and it's much more convenient to have multiple people." ”
Shen Fu nodded, and the father and daughter sat down in the pavilion.
Looking at his daughter's pretty good complexion, Shen Fu sighed and said, "Hello, it's Daddy who is sorry for you, I've made you suffer all these years." ”
Shen did take his father's hand, and there were a few more calluses on it, "Daddy, don't say that, I don't feel bitter, but I almost can't see Daddy, but I am scared to death, Daddy, this house is empty now, now there are only the two of us, plus the little sister, there are only three people on the left, I want to buy a new house, don't have to be so extravagant and luxurious, but ask for warmth, good feng shui." ”
She looked around the mansion, "Too many bad things have happened over the years, let's change places to live, Daddy thinks it's okay?" ”
Shen Fu nodded, "This house was also chosen by the Liu family at the beginning, I don't like it, I have always felt that it is too big and extravagant." If you want to change it, we will change it, and everything will be up to you. ”
"Daughter." Shen Fu was a little moved, "Daddy figured it out, in the past, Daddy was wrong, guarding those useless rules and ancestral etiquette, he had to push you into the fire pit, which almost ruined your life, Daddy will listen to you in the future, you can do whatever you want, as long as you are happy, Daddy will never stop you, what kind of official eunuchs, we are not rare." ”
Shen Qu nodded, and a teardrop fell and smashed on the back of Shen Fu's hand.
"The things of separation are done, and the rest of your life is your own, whether you marry or not, and who you marry, it depends on your own wishes." Shen Fu looked at his daughter and said, "Daddy just wants you to live comfortably, so I just won't marry again in this life, and we don't have to worry about food and clothing, and we will live well." ”
"Yes, I will be cautious, Daddy, don't worry, we will only live for ourselves every day in the future." Shen did smile and said, "Daddy knows Hulan's background." ”
Shen Fu nodded and said that he knew, "Woad is a good child, and she is also the child I brought up, don't let her know about this matter, lest the child be sad, I went to see the Liu family yesterday, let her bear it, take it with you, let her learn something from you?" ”
Shen did say yes, "I will teach her well, and let her do her filial piety to Daddy, she is a straightforward child, and we are used to it over the years, and the flamboyant temperament should be retracted." ”
Shen Fu nodded silently, drank a few cups of tea, and looked at Shen Qu again, there were some things he wanted to ask, but he still held back when the words came to his lips, and he just said that he didn't care, so he simply didn't ask.
The father and daughter came out of the old mansion, Shen Qu settled Shen Fu and found an inn to live and rest temporarily, and he took Zelan and Ngawang to see the new house.
The old mansion was sold by a tooth man, and the silver was paid by Li Luansong before, and now it should be returned to him.
Thinking of the scene of buying a house at that time, it seemed like it was just yesterday, at that time, Li Luansong was also kind-hearted, thinking that this was the place where she lived since she was a child, and she paid the money without saying a word, but she didn't know that she didn't like it here.
It's gone, and everything that starts over has nothing to do with the past.
The silver was handed over to Zelan, and Shen said: "I know that you have a way to hand over this silver to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and thank him for me by the way, we can't owe it to others." ”
Zelan gritted his teeth and nodded, thinking to himself, anyway, I have to make it clear to May, so I will give it to him together.
The old mansion was done, Shen did take Zelan to see a few more mansions, the house recommended by the tooth man was either too big or too luxurious, although she was not short of money, she never spent money indiscriminately, and finally only chose two satisfactory ones.
One is on Suzaku Street, which is very close to the shop, but it is only a few steps away from the Jin Wangfu, which is really embarrassing.
The other is a little remote, but very quiet, although it is a little far from the main streets, but it is fresh and elegant, and there is a library in the house, and I think its original owner must have been a lover of books, and the books in it were also sold.
It's settled here, Shen Qu immediately took the idea, and found a tooth man to hand it over, and there was a feeling of rebirth in his heart when he held the title deed in his hand.
After a busy day, the sunset has climbed to the horizon, and the red colors cover the earth, gentle and charming.
The big thing was solved, and the heart was much more relaxed, the master and servant ate snacks in the market, and when they returned to Zhang's house, it was already dark, and Zhang Chengru was wandering under the corridor at the door of Ningxiang Pavilion.
"You're here."
Shen said, "Wait for me, go in and sit." ”
Zhang Chengru nodded and followed her into the door.
When the tea was handed to his hand, Zhang Chengru took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and said, "I heard that you are going to buy a house, and what my mother asked me to give you is a little bit of heart from her and the whole family, I hope you can accept it." ”
Shen really wanted to refuse, Zhang Chengru said: "If you don't treat us as outsiders, you can still have a relationship in the future, you can take it, and you don't have to see the Zhang family when you are a daughter, if it wasn't for you before, this family may be ......."
He didn't continue, his eyes kept staring at his toes, a little embarrassed and embarrassed.
Shen said well, "Then I'll keep it first, the house has been chosen, and the tooth man will take someone to clean it up for two days, and I'll go to see tomorrow if there's anything else that needs to be purchased." ”
"Need help?" Zhang Chengru finally looked up at her, "I've been idle at home these days, why don't I help you clean up, or buy furniture?" ”
"I didn't mean anything else." After he finished speaking, he explained, "I just think that since you are a relative, you want to help a little, and you have too many things to take care of alone, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient." ”
Shen did say okay, "Then let's go together tomorrow, let's go and see how the tooth people clean up, and then you can help me buy some furniture and utensils." ”
The matter was decided like this, Zhang Chengru walked obviously with a much blower step, and he also had a long-lost smile on his face.
Seeing Zelan, he shook his head: "You said, if Lang Jun was like this earlier, hey, he didn't cry until he saw the coffin." ”
As a result, early the next morning, when the two walked out of the courtyard gate, they were frightened by the formation at the door.
Ngawang was driving the carriage, and there was a familiar person standing next to the carriage, it was Mutam.
He changed his outfit, wore a dark brocade robe, soap boots, two big braids were missing, his black hair was erected high, fixed with white jade bundles, his beard was also shaved off, and his white and slender face was particularly elegant and handsome, but he had a bit of a scholarly temperament, but his eyes were not friendly, and he was staring at the other side.
Looking at his eyes, Shen was startled.
Zhang Chengru stood at the door, waiting for her with his eyes down, and there was a canopy carriage next to him, and the person standing next to the car was not a bystander, it was really His Royal Highness Li Luansong, King of Jin.
