Wonderful Puppet

Wen Yahan's expression changed immediately.

Of course she knew that the third girl in the uncle's mansion had withdrawn her engagement due to serious illness, but she didn't know that the person who withdrawn was Mr. Han who had saved her.

What an embarrassing coincidence.

The embarrassing and unspeakable thought that has been lingering in my heart just faded away.

Seeing Wen Yahan's gloomy expression, Zhen Miao sighed intentionally: "It's so strange, today is not a day of rest, how could Han Jinshi appear there, his mental outlook is even worse, maybe something happened at home."

Wen Yahan raised her heart.

When Mr. Japan and Han came to rescue her and saved her reputation from being damaged, it was a life-saving grace. No matter whether she had other ideas or not, if Mr. Han was in trouble, she couldn't ignore it.

"Second cousin, do you know where Young Master Han... lives?" Wen Yahan blushed like a fire when she asked this sentence.

Zhen Miao smiled: "How do I know this, but my uncle may not know, why don't I come back and ask?"

Wen Yahan's face was flushed with shame, but she gritted her teeth and nodded: "I'm sorry, cousin."

It doesn't show on the face, but it's ups and downs in my heart.

The fourth sister did such a thing, and now she kept asking a man, would the cousin think that their sisters are all frivolous people?

Unexpectedly, Zhen Miao nodded quite naturally and stopped talking.

Wen Yahan lowered her head, pinching the handkerchief embroidered with lifelike crabapple blossoms, and walked back to the house in silence.

Zhen Miao wanted to find out about Han Jinshi, so she came forward to ask her uncle if it was inappropriate, so she went to Ningshou Hall.

It was cold, and the fire dragon was very hot. The old lady sat cross-legged on the kang, and three maidservants accompanied her to play leaf cards. A silk stood behind her and watched the cards for her.

Seeing Zhen Miao come in, the old lady handed the card to A Silk.He waved to Zhenmiao: "Si girl, how about going out to see your cousin's shop today?"

Zhen Miao raised a smiling face, took off her big clothes and snuggled up to the old lady, and took out the things she brought back, "Fourth Cousin has so many novelty items in his shop, the granddaughter is dazzled by seeing them. Grandma, this is what my granddaughter brought back for you." of."

The old lady took the small box and opened it, and inside was a colorful conch.

Immediately, I was overjoyed: "This is a conch shell, which is a novelty here in the capital. Such a beautiful color is also good as a decoration."

"Grandmother, listen." Zhen Miao put the conch shell to the old lady's ear.Slowly upside down, then back upside down.

I don't know what was put in the conch, and it moved so slowly that it made a faint music.

The old lady became interested: "What's going on, why do I hear there is fairy music in it?"

Zhen Miao explained with a smile: "My fourth cousin said that there is a Banyue Island in Dongling Yinghai, and this kind of special conch is produced in the nearby waters. Some craftsmen put specific sand in it to seal it, and it will make music."

The old lady was very interested when she heard it: "It seems that your fourth cousin's shop must have a good business."

"It's all thanks to grandma. Grandma came up with the idea at the beginning." Zhen Miao said with a smile.

If the old lady hadn't brought up this idea, no matter what kind of business the fourth cousin does, it would be difficult to do as well as he is now.

On money, on contacts, on background.It is too low in the capital, and it is too difficult to gain a foothold on Qingque Street.

"Si girl, your mouth today. Why is it so sweet like honey?" The old lady was in a good mood.

Older people like to see the younger generation look happy.If you have a mournful face, you will feel a bit blocked in your heart when you look at it.

Si Yatou is good at this, always smiling.

"Grandmother, speaking of it, I met someone by chance today."

"Uh, let's hear it."

The old lady is not confused, Zhen Miao came here to amuse and present treasures, I am afraid that what she is talking about now is the key point.

Zhen Miao looked at the four maids who were playing leaf cards.

The old lady understood: "Ah Chou, you two go to the cubicle to play."

The four maidservants hurriedly got up and retreated.

"We met Han Jinshi on the street."

"Huh?" The old lady put away her smile.

The matter of Zhen Jing has become a taboo that the government does not want to mention.

Especially regretting the marriage, it is true that the uncle's house has done something unkind.

"We heard the noise outside, so we quietly lifted the curtain and saw Han Jinshi by chance. Grandmother and granddaughter looked at Han Jinshi like that, it seemed a little bad, maybe something serious happened. I heard that Han Jinshi was For a poor family boy, it may be a big deal for him, but it may be just a matter of little effort for us. The matter of the third sister, after all, we failed in the first place. If we help at this time, it will be considered a good deal in the future Yuan. What do you think?"

Zhen Miao said a lot of words, then looked at the old lady eagerly.

The old lady kept a deep silence.

Seeing this, Zhen Miao was not in a hurry, she poured herself a cup of hot tea and drank it slowly.

Suddenly the old lady asked calmly: "Si girl, how do you know Han Jinshi?"

"Pfft—" Zhen Miao spat out a mouthful of hot tea.

The old lady looked at it and smiled secretly, but her face remained calm.

The little girl even ran to talk about the truth, so she dug herself out of the hole first.

Zhen Miao was indeed stunned by this question, wishing she could slap herself.

Fortunately, I didn't kindly ask my third cousin about this before, how could I forget that I also have a criminal record.

How did they know each other? Wasn't it the day when Zhen Yan came out of the pavilion, Zhen Yu persuaded a few people to slip into the cubicle to peek.

Now it's all right, I stabbed directly at my grandmother.

Zhen Miao felt the whole world's malice towards her IQ, she was a little depressed for a while, she hung her head listlessly and didn't know how to answer.

The old lady felt that the little granddaughter's slouching head made her feel very happy, so she resisted the urge to rub the top of her head, and reprimanded her with a straight face: "You will be 15 years old after this year, and you will soon reach the age of Ji Now, you must be more careful in your words and deeds in the future."

"Yes." Zhen Miao said honestly.

"Well, but what you said is also reasonable. Grandma will ask your uncle. Although the divorce from Han Jinshi was because your third sister was seriously ill at the time, if something happened to Han Jinshi's family, there is no guarantee that it will be reported. Some gossip."

Hearing what the old lady said, Zhen Miao let the matter go.

She also just thought that the third cousin had some different ideas about Han Jinshi, and she just tried her best, but she didn't intend to do everything.Everything still depends on God's will and fate.

The old lady really took this matter to heart.

Others don't know, she still doesn't know what's going on.

The matter of retiring from the marriage was caused by the carelessness of the goddaughter of the uncle's mansion, and he really owed Han Jinshi.

Let's listen to what the boss said, Jinshi Han is a promising man, even if he doesn't know the truth, there may be a gap between him and the uncle's family because of the divorce, if he really takes this opportunity to help him and untie this knot, it will be a big deal. pile of good things.

A letter was sent to the front yard immediately.Wait for the prince to come to Ningshoutang when he comes down to the Yamen.

After the son came back, he heard the message from the servant, so he came over directly. Hearing what the old lady said, he decided to inquire about it tomorrow.

On the second day, Ningshou Hall came again.

"Dalang, what happened to Han Jinshi?"

Zhen Jianwen sighed: "My son inquired about it today, and Han Zhiyuan hasn't been to the government for the past few days. On the fifteenth night of the first lunar month, there was a fire in Bali Hutong, and his family rented there. They said that his old mother was burned. The injury is quite serious. serious."

"His old mother is young and widowed, and she is just coming to the end? Tsk tsk, it's really pitiful." The old lady shook her head.

She also asked about this marriage at the beginning.Knowing that Han Zhiyuan was raised by a widowed mother, he has two younger brothers and one younger sister.

A woman, raising four children, the hardships are self-evident.

"My son has invited a doctor with excellent medical skills from Le Ren Tang. He also sent some medicinal materials and money. There is just one thing I want to discuss with my mother."

"what's up?"

Zhen Jianwen hesitated for a moment before saying: "Han Zhiyuan's mother is seriously injured and may not be able to survive. My son inquired about it. Now Han Zhiyuan is most anxious to marry a wife. He has already gone to several houses in the past two days. But you also I know, as long as there is a family with some roots, who would like to marry their daughter to celebrate, if the old man can't support it, and Han Zhiyuan has to keep his filial piety, the future is even more unpredictable."

The old lady glanced at Zhen Jianwen: "Da Lang, what do you want to discuss with me? Now there are only five girls and six girls of the right age in our house. Can't you just give him one of them for the sake of kindness? That's right. I agree, and Erlang also refuses."

As a mother, she knows best that the second child is not someone who would sacrifice her children for the sake of profit.

What's more, a Jinshi from a poor family can't talk about any benefits, just some potential, just to win over.

The second child has experienced abroad for many years, and now that he is back in Beijing, the emperor has not assigned any errands, but he has been summoned to the palace several times, and it seems that he will not just take any errands.

If the boss wants to take advantage of his status as the eldest son to intervene in the affairs of the second child, he will probably be disappointed.

The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all fleshy, the eldest is attacking the lord, and the second is distinguished by his own talent. This is what the old lady is most happy to see. She doesn't want to cause a rift between the two brothers because of a trivial matter.

Zhen Jianwen laughed: "Where did the mother think, how could the son have the idea of ​​the fifth girl and the sixth girl? If you don't talk about anything else, just talk about age. The difference is really a lot. The second brother didn't eat me raw."

Usually the man is much older than the woman, and it is most likely that the man's conditions are too good.Han Zhiyuan is a Jinshi from a poor family, if he really wants to win over the prostitute who is nearly ten years younger in the mansion, then he will be laughed at and has a problem with his brain.

"Then what exactly do you want to discuss?" The old lady felt relieved after hearing what he said, but she also became puzzled.

"My son heard from my mother that Miaoer and the third girl from the Wen family met Han Zhiyuan by chance yesterday, and suddenly had an idea. Look at the third girl from the Wen family—"

The old lady was startled at first, and was about to reprimand Zhen Jianwen for being ridiculous, but when she thought about it carefully, she felt that it was quite plausible.

After thinking for a while, she said, "After all, she is the niece of Wen's natal family. I still want to talk to her about this matter to see what she thinks. If she doesn't want to, we can't force it. Don't get the reputation of bullying relatives and relying on others."

"It's natural."

Greetings the next day, the old lady left Wen to speak. (To be continued..)
