Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

"Girl."

Shen Luoxin was immersed in the realization that "this weed of mine is quite good" when the old lady asked, "Girl, do you have a sweetheart?"

? !
"Cough cough!"

This question came so unexpectedly and without warning. Shen Luoxin choked on her snack while eating her snacks, her face flushed red, and she looked a little shy.She waved her hands repeatedly and said no, "No, no, I'm still young..." After saying that, she felt that this statement was inappropriate. At her age, she is not too young in this world, and she is indeed talking about marriage. On the age of marriage.

But from Shen Luoxin's own point of view, teenagers are just the age of children after all. This is an age where people will be caught in premature love. On weekdays, I don't feel out of place when I see other people flirting with me, but it always feels inconsistent when it comes to myself.In addition to my special situation, how can any matchmaker be willing to come to the house to help a widowed daughter?So, the matter was shelved without mercy.

Shen Luoxin couldn't hide what was on her mind, and her emotions could be seen with a little more attentiveness.What's more, Mrs. Ji has become a spirit long ago?She could see the other person's emotions clearly with just one glance. She pursed her lips and chuckled, "You're not young! When I was your age... I had already done a lot of things..."

It was just a joke. I wanted to say that when I was your age, I was already married and had children. The eldest brother is how many years old. But then I thought about it, how could I have the heart to fall in love at that time?Is it that the grassland is not big enough or that the powerful horses are not powerful enough?Get married and have children?How can I have that kind of effort!
Thinking like this, I also feel that I am indeed still young at this age, but the boy in the family is not young anymore, but he is not in a hurry. He only knows how to make money, and how can he be his wife?Can money create a wife?
stupid!silly!
The old lady moved her buttocks and leaned closer to Shen Luoxin, then said, "Then...you don't have a sweetheart yet? Girl, there is a boy in my family...he is not married yet..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Shen Luoxin felt that the stool suddenly hit his butt - he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles!Before the relationship, I felt that the reason why the old lady looked at me so eagerly was because she wanted me to marry her boy?However, the old lady asked strangely. She didn't ask if she was married, but she asked if she had a sweetheart.Are you sure you are not married yet?

If I had known... I would have coaxed the other person to say that I was married to someone else and had a son and a daughter... This idea was just a casual thought, and Shen Luoxin would not really ask this casually. Blurring people about things that come up, so that everyone will not be embarrassed in the end.She smiled and didn't answer.

The old lady continued to promote her grandson, "That boy... looks pretty good, but he doesn't have any skills. He can run a small business and support the family. He has good conduct and never messes around with women. He's just... he's just a little older. , his temper is also a bit dull, and he won’t please girls.”

Listening to the nun next to her, she just felt that there was a reason why the young master could not marry a wife these years - look, he is such a young man, his appearance is also first-rate, his business is spread all over the country, and according to his grandmother, he is "She looks pretty good, does some small business, has no skills"... Who would be willing to marry the girl after hearing this?

It turns out to be a big problem!Shen Luoxin thought to herself, no wonder this old woman didn't ask anything. She only asked her name and wanted to sell her son to others... It would be difficult to get a wife in modern times...

She smiled coquettishly, but it was not that she looked down upon him. After all, even in the modern society of the previous life, her own profession was at the bottom of the marriage and blind date market.She just didn't care about this, and thought of a reason to shirk it, "This... your master is in a foreign country, and I am in the city. It's not convenient for me to go back and forth."

"No, no, no, that boy has been in Yanjing City recently, and he will probably stay for a while. Enough, enough!" "Uh..." the old lady said with a beaming expression of "enough, enough". It made people think that she didn't simply mean that the two of them had spent enough time together.Shen Luoxin rubbed her nose, but she really couldn't do anything about this overly enthusiastic old lady, "I, I'm afraid... I'm not worthy of Mr. Ling."

"It's worthy, it's worthy, it's more than enough!"

The main thing about the old lady is that she can't get in... Shen Luoxin has a head as big as two. She lowered her head and bit the corner of her mouth, sighing, "I, my mother is a bastard..." She didn't want to say it, but just now Downstairs, she noticed that the waiter was strangely hesitant to speak. According to her years of experience, if he was an enthusiastic waiter, which was probably the case in the past two days, he would remind me openly and covertly. People should "stay away from the eldest lady of the Shen family, she is unclean and has a widowed mother".

I originally thought that in the vast sea of ​​people, I don’t know when and what month I will meet next time. Whether the other party knows it or not, I just let it take its course.But now that the old lady is obsessed with promoting herself and her son, it is hard for her to learn about this from others.After saying that, she lowered her head, not wanting to see the other party's eyes of surprise or disgust.

There is some surprise.

The other party said "Oh?" with a raised voice, obviously a little surprised, and then said, "Are you working in a yamen? The yamen here also accepts women?"

"Well..." Shen Luoxin still lowered his head and explained in a low voice, "I have hired people before, but usually I couldn't. The job of a man is already despised, let alone a woman... But my mother said that every year So many, so many women were killed, much more than men. They were a vulnerable group of people, but they still did not receive the greatest respect after death. She had seen some of the gangsters with her own eyes and commented on their bodies. She felt that she wanted to do something no matter what. Even if she tried her best, she could only help a small part of them, but it was still better than nothing."

silence.The uncomfortable silence.

Shen Luoxin lowered her head, enduring the silence that was particularly depressing and familiar to her, but she did not see the sudden sadness of the old lady who had been smiling gently before.

Xu Siniang... the only female widow in Yanjing City, gave the child the last dignity and respect.She thought that this girl Luo Xin must have followed Xu Siniang to grow up so well... She touched the other person's lowered head, her voice was soft, and her ears felt like the warm and cold wind in early spring.

She asked, "What about your child? Do you also think it would be embarrassing to have a widowed mother?"

"No." Shen Luoxin looked up, his eyes stubborn, as stubborn as a newborn calf, "I'm very proud. Whether Xu Siniang is a mother or a widower, I am proud of her."
