Chapter 165: An Tao follows
Skylark Street has always been lively, but Shen Yanshu, who hadn't gone out for a long time, looked at the crowd coming and going, but he was not used to this excitement for a while.
She looked out from the private room on the second floor of Yunshang Building, the cries of various vendors came and went, people shuttled among them, and the traffic was busy, Rao was so, she still saw An Tao waiting outside Yunshang Building.
Ruan Leyao, who was sitting opposite Shen Yanshu, said, "You finally lifted the grounding, why are you in a daze at this time?"
Shen Yanshu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I just saw someone waiting below, I don't know what idea I was thinking." ”
Hearing Shen Yanshu say this, Ruan Leyao remembered what everyone often said recently, the fifth lady of the Shen family, Shen Yuyan, returned to the Shen family due to injury, and she asked, "Could it be that Shen Yuyan is making trouble for you again?"
Shen Yanshu didn't care, and said: "She has always been like this, even if she is lame, she is still restless. ”
Ruan Leyao was puzzled: "Could it be that Lord Shen and they just sit idly by?"
"People will always be a little stronger after suffering, Shen Yuyan is no longer the willful and reckless character she was at the beginning, she is now injured, and she can't be mean to her. Shen Yanshu said.
Ruan Leyao frowned, but she knew the meaning of Shen Yanshu's words, and Shen Yuyan sympathized with her injuries.
"Something has to be done to cure her, or she'll just get worse. Ruan Leyao said.
Shen Yanshu chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry. ”
An Tao looked downstairs for a long time and didn't see Shen Yanshu come out, she hesitated for half an hour, and finally decided to go into the Yunshang Building.
"Girl, what are you going to eat?" Xiao Er stepped forward and asked.
An Tao said: "I am the maid of the Shen family, I came to find the third lady of our Shen family, is she here?"
The little second looked at An Tao carefully, and said with a smile: "Girl, there are many people who come to our restaurant to eat, there are many official ladies, how do we know which is your third lady, people will never have to tell us who these villains themselves are!"
An Tao frowned, and she said again: "Our young lady is wearing a white dress, and she is with a young lady wearing a pale yellow dress. ”
Xiao Er said: "There are so many people, where do we remember, if you don't have anything else, don't affect our business here." ”
An Yao looked at the appearance of this little er, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, he snorted coldly, and said, "Who said that I have nothing else to do, serve me a pot of tea." ”
"Yo, do you want to drink Longjing tea or Maojianna?" asked Xiao Er.
An Tao glanced at the people in the Yunshang Building, and many of them looked like ordinary people, all drinking tea, tasting side dishes and talking about what had happened recently.
Although these two kinds of tea are not cheap, but thinking that it should be old goods, it is more than a few dollars, so she said: "Bring me a pot of Longjing." ”
Xiao Er said: "Okay!
Nie Liang next to him saw all this in his eyes, a sneer curled up at the corner of his lips, and he turned around and went upstairs to inform Xiyan of the matter.
An Tao sat in the lobby and waited for a while, Xiao Er brought the brewed tea up, she continued to stare at Shen Yanshu's appearance, and poured a cup of tea and drank it without thinking about it.
After taking the first sip, I felt that the taste of this tea was good, but it was much better than ordinary tea.
After listening to the gossip of the people around him, after half an hour of incense, he finally saw Shen Yanshu and Ruan Leyao walking out of the room on the second floor.
An Tao hurriedly stepped forward, but was stopped by Xiao Er: "Girl, you haven't given the tea money yet!"
"How much?"
"One or two. Xiao Er replied, stretching out his hand
An Tao looked at him in disbelief and said, "Soon it's a pot of tea, why is it so expensive!"
Although this is not much for her, but now is not the time for her to spend lavishly, not to mention that she didn't bring much money when she went out today, her money was all given by the Gu family, and it was only a little more than a month since she returned to the Shen family, and she didn't even have monthly money.
Xiao Er saw her hesitate and said, "You don't want to repay the debt, right?"
An Tao was in a hurry to chase Shen Yanshu, so she naturally didn't bother to pay attention to him, so she planned to take out her purse to settle the bill, but when she reached out and touched it, she found that her purse was gone!
She was in a hurry, and searched for a while, but found nothing.
"Sure enough, it's an overlord meal!" Xiao Er said, "I don't have money and I still have to learn to come here to drink tea!"
"It's clear that you stole my money!" An Tao remembered that he still had a purse with him before he came in, thinking that he was a pit person in Yunshang Building, and even tea was so expensive!
When the little two heard this, they sneered and said, "Is it reasonable to pay the bills? Our Yunshang Building has been open for so long, and no one has lost money here! Why did we become thieves as soon as we came to you?"
The argument between the two grew louder and louder, and everyone around looked over to wonder what was going on.
An Tao tried her best to calm down, and suddenly thought of something, and shouted at Shen Yanshu: "Third Miss, help me!"
Shen Yanshu and Ruan Leyao were just about to walk out of the door, but they were stunned when they heard her shout.
Ruan Leyao glanced back at An Tao, who was wearing the Shen family's maid suit, and she asked Shen Yanshu, "This is your Shen Mansion's maid?"
An Tao hurriedly stepped forward to salute Shen Yanshu and said, "Third Miss, please help me! My money has been stolen." ”
Shen Yanshu glanced at An Tao and asked, "How can I help?"
An Tao said: "This ...... Ask the lady to borrow some money. ”
The people on the side smiled: "I didn't expect the rules of this Shen Mansion to be different, this maid ate the overlord meal, and she had to ask the master to advance the money." ”
As soon as these words fell, everyone around them burst into laughter.
Shen Yanshu's face didn't change much, and she asked Xiao Er, "How much did it cost?"
"A tael of silver. Xiao Erdao, "This girl knows the goods, and clicked on the small signboard of our store, Longjing, which was just sent from Jiangnan." ”
Shen Yanshu looked at An Tao and asked, "I heard that you are a maid who has been in the Zhuangzi, why do you spend money lavishly?"
An Tao said aggrievedly: "The slave maid was just deceived by them, for the sake of the fifth lady, the third lady will help the slave maid!"
Qing Kite said: "Why does our young lady help you, the money you spend and the face to ask the master, the face is really big, is this how the fifth miss teaches you on weekdays?"
An Tao said: "I know that the third miss has always been at odds with our young lady, but you can't help it, it's a big deal that I'll go back and ask the fifth miss to pay you back." ”
This Shen Yanshu has always had no good impression of Shen Yuyan, they have failed to get close to each other several times, if they can expand the contradiction between the two here, it will be beneficial for them to act in the future, An Tao thought in his heart.
But Shen Yanshu often doesn't do what she thinks.
I saw Shen Yanshu say to the green kite: "Since it is from our Shen Mansion, it is natural to bring it back." Green Kite, when you go back later, go and talk to the eldest lady, and ask someone to bring money to bring her back. ”
An Tao looked at Shen Yanshu in surprise, and said anxiously: "Miss, why bother so much, can't you just be kind?"
Shen Yanshu said: "Our Shen family has always been honest, naturally there is not much money, a young lady like me, the monthly money is only a few taels of silver a month, and kindness should be given to those who really need help, not like you who spend money indiscriminately and justifiably ask for money." If everyone were like you, our Shen family would have been poor a long time ago. ”
"You ......" An Tao, who was blocked by Shen Yanshu and had nothing to say, could only look at her with a resentful expression.
When the people around saw it, they accused this maid of being too ignorant and should not have stayed.
Ruan Leyao glanced at An Tao, and after listening to the conversation, she knew that she was Shen Yuyan's maid, and then she understood what Shen Yanshu said in the private room just now that someone was spying on her.
"It's a lot of silver, and I don't know if it's enough to sell this maid for this money. Ruan Leyao joked.
An Tao was frightened by her words.
Her identity is just a maid, if she wants to sell, isn't it all based on Song's words?
"I'm out of the money!"
A familiar voice came from behind, and everyone followed the sound and looked over, it was Gu Ziyi.
"Two less...... Gu Gongzi. Seeing Gu Ziyi appear, An Tao stepped forward and saluted.
Gu Ziyi glanced at Shen Yanshu, now Shen Yanshu is a completely different person, she is no longer the ugly and timid she was at the beginning, now she is not only outstanding in appearance and temperament, but every move makes him can't help but look sideways.
But her increasingly aggressive nature made him feel bad, because she was getting stronger and stronger, but she couldn't see herself.
Shen Yanshu saw Gu Ziyi's gaze stay on him, and frowned unhappily.
Her impatience brought Gu Ziyi back to his senses, and he turned to Xiao Er and said, "I'm out of this money, don't embarrass a girl's family." ”
Seeing that he took out the money happily, the people around him didn't look at the excitement.
Shen Yanshu's eyes swept over Gu Ziyi and An Tao, there was deep meaning in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, turned around and continued to walk out of Yunshang Tower.
An Tao was a little weak-hearted, because she was originally a person in the Gu Mansion, and she was scared by Shen Yanshu's meaningful glance, afraid that she would notice something, but after thinking about it, how could Shen Yanshu have such a ability to find out her background.
Thinking of this, An Tao was a little fearless, she gave Gu Ziyi a salute, which was regarded as a thank you, and then trotted out to follow Shen Yanshu.
"Third Miss!" An Tao chased forward.
Ruan Leyao said impatiently: "You maid is really unruly, everything has been settled, what do you want to do?"
An Tao sneered: "The slave just hopes that the third miss doesn't have to embarrass the fifth miss anymore, the fifth miss is not easy, I hope the third miss can be more tolerant, after all, you are all sisters!"
An Tao's voice was not small, and the people who came and went on the street looked at them strangely.
Shen Yanshu sneered, this maid and Shen Yuyan were like dog skin plasters, and if they had to come to her, it could be said that they were extremely disgusting.
Gu Ziyi also stepped forward, and there were several sons and brothers with him, all of whom stood aside and watched this good show.
The green kite stepped forward and said to An Tao, "When does the master have to look at your face when he does things?"
An Tao immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Shen Yanshu suddenly: "I'm sorry, the slave knows that it's wrong, the slave shouldn't talk to the third miss like this, but the slave can't bear to treat the fifth miss like this!"
