Shen Qing looked at his mother for some unknown reason. Although he was unwilling, he obediently kept his mouth shut.
Although Shen Yue did not understand what was wrong with what Shen Miao said, seeing Chen Rou Qiu's nervous expression, she also realized what was happening, she stood there obediently and did not speak again.
Old Shen Furen frowned, although she had followed Old General Shen for so many years, she did not understand the twists and turns in the officialdom, and her eyes were limited to the sky in the four corners of the back house, so she could hear what Shen Miao said. meaning. She only felt that Shen Miao had taken the wrong medicine today and repeatedly contradicted her, which had offended her majesty as a member of the family and was about to get angry immediately.
"Xiao Wu's words are right," Ren Wanyun interrupted Old Shen Furen's rebuke with a smile, "It was originally a misunderstanding, how could this incident in the front hall spread to the backyard? It was just a coincidence. His Royal Highness King Ding is open-minded and will not take the play of children's houses in his eyes. Everything is a misunderstanding, pity our little five, who fell into the water and was shocked, it is really wronged. "
The old lady Shen opened her mouth, a little dissatisfied with the second daughter-in-law's sudden interruption of her words. But Ren Wanyun's family was a well-known businessman's family in Ming Qi, and usually many expenses were subsidized by this second daughter-in-law. Although she was dissatisfied, she was not willing to offend her. He snorted coldly, but did not continue.
Chen Rouqiu also realized something, and hurriedly followed Ren Wanyun's words: "That is, sister Yue, sister Qing, don't mention what you just said in the future. It was Xiao Wu who accidentally fell into the water and happened to be watched by His Royal Highness Prince Ding. That’s it. There is no coincidence in the world.” She smiled and looked at Shen Miao, “Little Wu, the old lady also loves you, not really angry with you.”
Shen Miao looked at the woman in front of her. Shen Yue looks like Chen Rouqiu, and has a similar temperament. Chen Rouqiu was born in a scholarly family, with graceful and graceful features, and she was gentle and gentle when walking and talking, but she was not frivolous. Such a woman with a strong sense of books seems to be a good friend, who knows what will happen later...
Later, when the envoy from the Huns asked for a marriage, there was only one princess of the right age in the palace, namely Wan Yu. Chen Rouqiu said that Shen Yue was getting old, and her relatives were also her home, so she voluntarily married the Xiongnu and her relatives. But Shen Yue is not a princess, so Fu Xiu Yi canonized Shen Yue as Princess Yueru so that they can have a proper marriage.
But in the end, it was her Wan Yu who got married.
Wanyu died on the way with her relatives, and Wanyu's princess palace was given to Princess Yueru. Princess Yueru accepted everything from Wanyu logically.
Her Wan Yu is not yet sixteen years old.
Shen Miao closed her eyes, if Chen Rouqiu's credit was not attributed to it, Chen Rouqiu herself would not believe it. I am afraid that Chen Rou Qiu and Mrs. Mei have already reached an agreement, all they want is to see her who thought she had hope, but her own hope was shattered.
Chen Rou Qiu's smile froze.
The girl opposite looked at her, with a round face, round eyes, and a round nose. This kind of appearance, coupled with a cowardly look, could easily give a person the impression of being stupid and stupid.
And now it's not. The cowardly look disappeared at some point, replaced by a solemn look. It wasn't the seriousness that suddenly became nervous, but the integrity from the heart, with a faint sense of distance. For a moment, Chen Rou Qiu suddenly felt that the person in front of her was not the stupid daughter of the big house, but some kind of master in a high position. The kind of sternness around him made people tremble suddenly.
The next second, she saw the girl bending her eyes at her: "I don't mind, the third aunt also thinks now that Xiao Wu is right."
Chen Rou Qiu was stunned for a moment, looked at the old lady who was obviously unhappy in the high position, and said reluctantly, "That being said, but Xiao Wu fell into the pond so carelessly, how do the girls around you take care of people? Big brother? If my sister-in-law is not around, is it so slave and bully? According to Auntie, it is better to replace these girls."
Ren Wanyun let out a "puchi" laugh. Chen Rou Qiu glanced at her angrily, a sneer appeared on the corner of Ren Wan Yun's mouth.
This younger brother and sister of mine seems to be well-informed, but she is very shrewd. If this is the case, it will deceive that fool Shen Miao, probably because she wants to replace the people around Shen Miao, now Shen Yue has reached the age where she should pay attention to others, no matter how far Shen Miao's reputation for being stupid and cowardly is, in the capital, On, Shen Yue was not as good as Shen Miao. After all, Shen Xin still held military power in his hands.
The third room, in the end, is also just around the corner.
Shen Miao lowered her head, "Why did the third aunt want to replace Gu Yu and the others, they were all left by father and mother to Wu Niang, and now there are many people in the western courtyard, Wu Niang doesn't know any of the second-class maidservants a few days ago. , and then replace a few Gu Yu, Wu Niang doesn't know who to talk to in the West Courtyard."
Ren Wanyun's smile stopped abruptly.
In the west courtyard, Shen Xin and his wife were not in the capital all the year round. Almost all the maids and servants in the courtyard were replaced. There were people from the old lady, people from the second room, and people from the third room. But because it is the second-bedroom head home, there are naturally more people in the second-bedroom. It's good not to say this. If it spreads to outsiders, the daughter of the eldest room does not know a servant in her own yard. What kind of heart can the second room and the third room have? There is absolutely no reason for the concubine to intervene in the eldest brother's yard.
Her mind turned quickly, she glared at Chen Rou Qiu with a smile, and said to Shen Miao, "Your third aunt is joking with you, Gu Yu and the girls are just careless and careless, our Shen family is kind and kind, we cannot do this kind of injustice. Xiao Wu should not be in a hurry when it comes to human affairs."
At the end of the sentence, Chen Rou Qiu was still choked.
Shen Yuanbai looked at his mother, then at Chen Rouqiu, and yawned. The old lady Shen was getting a little impatient with the fight between her second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law. Seeing this, she said, "It's done, it's just trivial matters. From the second family, bring the seventh brother over. Let's go. There are so many people, dizzy and dizzy."
Ren Wanyun hurriedly carried Shen Yuanbai to Old Madam Shen's couch, and said, "Mother, the daughters-in-law will go down first. Seventh brother, play well with the old Madam."
Chen Rouqiu glanced at Shen Yuanbai, put both hands on her lower abdomen, and slowly walked out of Rongjingtang. The second room has a son, so Madam Shen looks up to her. No matter how capable she is... Shen Yue is a daughter after all. It would be nice to have a son. In the Shen residence, the things in the big room will sooner or later be fought over. If there is a son, at least it can be divided equally. Unlike now, the second room is cheaper for nothing. And... the big room also has a son-in-law. Although he is at the border with Shen Xin, who knows if he will come back and get a piece of the pie.
After thinking about it, Chen Rouqiu raised her head and her eyes fell on the few people who were heading towards the west courtyard.
The girl was wearing a deep red splendid gown. She always liked to wear bright and tender colors. In addition, without her parents by her side, she didn't know how to dress up, so she always showed a rustic feeling.
But now, the deep red makes her complexion even more fair, and it is clearly the same appearance, but she feels a lot more serious. Even a little… majestic
Gu Yu whispered: "The girl is not in good shape yet, so why rush to the Guangwen Museum? The illness has been explained, and the homework is not in a hurry. Or..."
“No.” Shen Miao interrupted her, “Prepare the car immediately.”
He clearly didn't say anything serious, but for some reason, Gu Yu shuddered and didn't dare to ask any more questions.
