The Young Lady of the General’s House

Chapter 14

Views:

The next day, the general’s mansion received the imperial edict in a proper manner, but Chu Xiuming’s face was pale and the smell of medicine still smelt a little blood, as if he was seriously injured and hadn’t recovered yet, and Chu Xiuyuan didn’t come out at all, according to What Shen Jin said was that Chu Xiuyuan was seriously injured and couldn't get up at all. The doctor said that moving around now would be harmful to his life.

The two envoys were dissatisfied, but they couldn't force Chu Xiuyuan to stand up regardless of his life.

Shen Jin has been supporting the "severely injured" Chu Xiuming. After receiving the imperial decree, Chu Xiuming was helped in to rest, while Shen Jin watched as the rewards were moved into the general's mansion.

They are all gold, silver and jewellery, and I even visited Liangtian Bieyuan. Even Shen Jin has several sets of imperial jewelry and a lot of fabrics, but none of them are useful. There is no shortage at all, gold, silver and jewelry can be seen but not eaten, and the food and medicinal materials they need are not mentioned at all.

Shen Jin watched everything go into storage, and suddenly asked, "Where's the food and grass?"

The envoy knew Shen Jin's identity, and had a taste of Shen Jin's power yesterday, but today he respectfully said, "The Holy Majesty has ordered the Ministry of Households to prepare such things as food and grass materials, and they will be shipped to the border town in the near future."

Even if Shen Jin doesn't know anything about it, she understands that it's really hard to say in the near future, so she looked at the messenger, "And then?"

The messenger looked puzzled, what then

"When is the near future?" Shen Jin asked.

The messenger said, "I don't know."

Shen Jin nodded. The envoy just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Shen Jin say innocently, "Then write a letter back and ask."

what? Should I ask the emperor or the Minister of the Household Department? No matter who Shen Jin meant to ask, it was not something they could provoke, okay

Shen Jin seemed to be embarrassing the envoy, "By the way, help me deliver a few letters to my father, mother, and two married sisters. Anyway, your memorial will be sent back to the capital."

The envoy understood now, what Shen Jin meant was for them to ask the emperor.

"And I remember that the memorial will be faster than the ordinary letter." Shen Jin looked at the envoy with an ugly face, and asked with a frown, "What's the matter? Are you willing to help me?"

In fact, Shen Jin's frowning is not scary at all, on the contrary, it is a little cute. After all, her eyes are round and childish, but the eyes of the two envoys don't feel it at all. Return to Beijing as soon as you are done."

"Writing a letter doesn't waste time." Shen Jin said, "Come here, take care of the two adults with pen and ink."

As soon as the words were finished, I saw that the servants of the mansion had already closed the gate of the general's mansion, and then moved the table to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and spread the paper thoughtfully, "Please, my lords."

Shen Jin said, "Those two adults are busy, so I went in to write a letter to my father and the others." After finishing speaking, she turned around and left, because she was about to receive an order, so she was wearing Mrs. Uncle's formal attire today, and she couldn't walk fast at all. Even so, the two envoys did not dare to step forward.

"Mrs. Uncle stay here, why don't I write when I get back to the station?" The envoy raised his voice and said.

Shen Jin didn't answer, but looked at Zhao Nanny, who didn't even raise her head, but said, "Madam hasn't had a meal since she got up early in the morning, and this old servant has asked someone to prepare red dates and millet porridge."

Recently, many well-informed businessmen have started to deliver goods here, and people arranged by Chu Xiuming went to the surrounding area to purchase. The food in the General's Mansion is much better than before. At least Shen Jin doesn't have to watch them eat horses every day. meat.

"Okay." Shen Jin decisively put the two envoys behind him.

Anping did not follow Shen Jin, but stayed and looked at the two envoys, and asked respectfully with a smile on his face, "I wonder if the two envoys need slaves to inform the kitchen to prepare lunch?"

The implication is that you want to go out without finishing writing? how is this possible.

When Shen Jin went back, she found Chu Xiuming sitting in her courtyard, her eyes were wide open, she looked at Chu Xiuming and asked, "Why are you here?"

Chu Xiuming raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, but Zhao Mama said with a smile, "I'm going to urge you to get some food in the kitchen." After speaking, he left, because the border town needs to be rebuilt, and many places need manpower, so Even in the Shen Jin Courtyard, there were not many people. As soon as Madam Zhao left, only Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin were left in the small courtyard.

This was the first time Shen Jin was alone with Chu Xiuming, and he felt a little nervous. Seeing Chu Xiuming looking at him, although he didn't speak, Shen Jin could see what Chu Xiuming meant.

Shen Jin was able to stay by Princess Rui's side in Prince Rui's mansion, and she liked Princess Rui because she was very good at looking at people. Before Princess Rui opened her mouth, she could take what Princess Rui wanted or needed. , Princess Rui's favorite tea temperature, favorite food taste, even more clearly remembered.

At the beginning, he still made mistakes, but later he became more proficient, so there is no obstacle for Shen Jin to communicate with someone like Chu Xiuming.

Chu Xiuming had actually felt it a long time ago, but because his younger brother was present, he didn't show it. Today, he was sure, and he also had some guesses about Shen Jin's situation in Ruiwang's mansion. Such winks and carefulness are not born naturally. Yes, it has been tempered for many years.

As the concubine of King Rui, Shen Jin can develop such abilities, which shows what kind of life he has spent in Prince Rui's mansion, and Chu Xiuming has heard Wang Steward and the others talk about Shen Jin's performance since he came to the border city, so he has some guesses in his heart, but it is not good to ask directly Exit, just wait and observe slowly later.

"Sit down." Chu Xiuming is actually not difficult to get along with, and he is not the murderous person as rumored. I don't know if it is Shen Jin's illusion. She always feels that Chu Xiuming's brows are not only cold but also slightly melancholy. His temperament makes him even more attractive.

"En." Shen Jin responded, and then sat beside Chu Xiuming.

Chu Xiuming didn't seem to notice Shen Jin's cautiousness, and asked with a smile, "Did the two envoys make things difficult for you just now?"

Shen Jin was dazzled by Chu Xiuming's smile, and said, "No, but I asked them to write a letter back to ask when the food and grass will be delivered, and help me send a few letters to the father and the king by the way." It was like asking Chu Xiu Ming's opinion, "Do you think I'm doing the right thing?"

In fact, someone had already told Chu Xiuming about Shen Jin's stay in the front yard, and said, "You've done it all, what if I'm wrong?"

Shen Jin's face turned pale, and she moved her lips, "Then what should I do..."

"I'm joking." Seeing Shen Jin's appearance, Chu Xiuming said softly, "Don't worry, you've done a good job."

Shen Jin puffed up his cheeks, wanted to stare at Chu Xiuming a few times but didn't dare, and finally lowered his head and remained silent.

Chu Xiuming laughed softly, stretched out his hand to hold Shen Jin's hand, his five fingers were slender, much bigger than Shen Jin's hand, and could cover Shen Jin's hand all at once, Shen Jin pulled it out in a panic He pulled out his hand, but found that he couldn't pull it out at all, and Chu Xiuming squeezed it lightly and said, "Don't be angry."

"No." Shen Jin blushed, although she raised her head, her eyes didn't dare to fall on Chu Xiuming's face.

"Then what are you going to write to your father-in-law?" Chu Xiuming asked.

Only then did Shen Jin say, "I want something. My concubine said that if I need something, I can write a letter home and they will send it to me." There was a little pride in her words, "I want some tonics and spices. Also tell me that I am not used to the food here, and ask them to send some dried vegetables, dried fruit and candied bacon... I actually prefer to eat the kind of ham that my brother-in-law gave to my concubine last year. It is a bit sweet and very fragrant, whether it is roasted It tastes good when eaten or stewed, I wonder if she will send me some when I write to my eldest sister this time."

Chu Xiuming listened to Shen Jin muttering non-stop, without the slightest bit of patience, but with a bit of interest.

"I think my younger brother will definitely like that kind of ham." Shen Jin was afraid that Chu Xiuming would think he was greedy, so he pulled Chu Xiuyuan out, "There are also palm-sized dried shrimps, although they are a bit salty, they are very good for cooking Eat, my husband, you will definitely like it..."

Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin with gentle eyes, and when she stopped, he stretched out his hand and pinched Shen Jin's face. It really felt good, and it would be better if he was fatter, "Grow up quickly."

"Ah?" Shen Jin finally freed his hand from Chu Xiuming's, covered his face, and looked at Chu Xiuming suspiciously.

Chu Xiuming didn't say any more, but looked at Mother Zhao who was standing outside with a food box and a maid, "Help Madam in and change." Although Madam Uncle's formal dress is gorgeous, it is not convenient for her to eat.

Zhao Momo handed the food box in her hand to the maid beside her, and then came in and said, "Yes." Then she helped Shen Jin walk into the house.

Seeing that Chu Xiuming nodded, the maids came in and began to arrange the food.

After this exchange, Shen Jin felt that Chu Xiuming was very gentle and treated her very well. Thinking of Chu Xiuming holding her hand, her face blushed, she bit her lower lip, and her eyes showed a little shyness. Seeing it all, a smile grew on his face, and he said, "Today the general specially ordered the kitchen to steam the steamed cake, and the old slave went to see it. There are not only dates but also some walnut kernels in it."

"Really?" Shen Jin's eyes lit up, but she forgot to be shy, and instead looked expectantly at Zhao Nanny.

The corner of Zhao Nanny's eyes twitched, shouldn't the point be the general's special order

"Yes." Nanny Zhao quickly helped Shen Jin remove the excessive hair accessories on her head, and said, "The general specially asked people to buy walnut kernels. Didn't Madam say that she wanted to eat walnut kernels yesterday?"

"Are there raisins in there?" Shen Jin then asked.

Zhao Momo paused while holding the clothes, and said, "Yes, the general knows that Madam likes to eat, so he told the kitchen sincerely that there are raisins in it."

"That's great." Shen Jin smiled, took the clothes and began to change by herself, urging, "Hurry up, the cake is delicious when it's warm. I ate it a few times in the capital, but my concubine didn't like it." I have to accompany my mother and concubine for breakfast, so I haven't eaten it a few times."

This time Zhao Nanny not only twitched the corners of her eyes but also her mouth. She felt that the general had a long way to go before his wife grew up, so she sighed softly and looked at Shen Jin's back again. In order to hug the little master? There is always a feeling of being far away.
