Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 136 Waiting for news

"You're right."

But Shang Ji also felt that it was right.

It's easy to find a cook, but it's hard to find someone as skilled as Dan Ruo.

Therefore, it cannot be "let go".

After eating and drinking enough, the two wanted to find something to do for themselves.

Otherwise, it would be too boring to just wait for the news to come.

So the two started playing chess.

None of them are good chess skills, but their chess skills are not bad.

It's just that occasionally Du Jingyi will play tricks and go back on a few moves. Shang Ji also knows that she is joking, so he doesn't mind.

Just like this, you come and go, and the sky becomes brighter and brighter.

Everyone is waiting.

Those in Yunjinyuan waited to hear the news that the Duke was seriously injured and returned, and those in Dongyuan waited to see the jokes from the neighbors. In the entire Duke's mansion, there was nothing clear about it, only the three-bedroom family in Beiyuan.

Shang Saburo and Saburo's wife are discussing things now.

"After winter, let alone us, the servant girls didn't even have a winter coat. I tried to go and see Mrs. Wei, but I was stopped. Husband, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here for long. .”

Although their regular silver was still given as usual, there was nothing else except the regular silver.

In the past, he could make excuses for all kinds of things and donate some money from them, or he could go to Mrs. Wei and cry poorly, letting her leak some money from her fingers.

But now, Yunjin Academy has made it clear that it doesn't want to care about it.

Erlang's daughter-in-law is clutching the banknotes that Liu Niang sent in the past.

Even if she had the guts to ask for it, she didn't have the guts to ask for it.

After getting along with her sister-in-law for so many years, she still knows what kind of person she is.

At a time like this, who doesn't want to protect themselves.

Therefore, I can only talk to my husband.

After Shang Sanlang heard this, he also frowned, and then gave orders.

"If the family's expenses are not enough, I can deduct it from my expenses. Anyway, most of my meals and drinks outside are treated by other people. I can live with a little savings."

"Husband, what nonsense are you talking about? Now is the time for you to make friends with noble people. How can you save your expenses? Fortunately, I also saved some money on weekdays. It's okay to support it for half a year, but after the beginning of spring It's a little troublesome."

"The children's Shuxiu, as well as the materials and needlework that the school girls need to waste, all have to be prepared."

It is a good fortune for San Lang's wife to have two sons and two daughters.

But this kind of good fortune falls in front of you, and it is a scene of killing a hero with a penny.

In fact, she also has a dowry, but her dowry will be reserved for the four children in the future, so it is somewhat worthless to use it now.

That's why he looks so sad.

Saburo thought for a while, then comforted his wife and said.

"I don't have much to do these days, so I went to inquire with my friends to see if there is any business that can be done. The end of the year is approaching. If we find the right way, we can also make a small fortune, and we don't have to worry about next year's expenses. gone."

Compared with Shang Erlang, Shang Sanlang is still very progressive.

Hearing what he said, Saburo's daughter-in-law was naturally happy.

But still raised his mouth.

"In a few days, the people in Dongyuan will all move out, and there will probably be a lot of furniture left over. In the past two days, I took time to visit the sixth younger sibling. She is so rich, and it is fine to leave any belongings. If it is valuable, I will give it to pawn at that time, and it can also be exchanged for silver envoys."

Although Saburo has some backbone, but not much.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have lived here with my family all the time, so I didn't feel blushed when my wife suggested such a suggestion.

He nodded and said.

"Okay, just follow your arrangement."

The couple worked together, but Mrs. Wei, who had been sharing the same bed in Yunjin Courtyard for a long time, felt a little restless at the moment.

Waking up this morning, her chest seemed to be blocked.

Never ironed.

Originally, she personally arranged the assassination, but she always felt a little flustered at this moment.

It's not that he feels sorry for the Duke's being assassinated, but he just vaguely feels that this matter may not be so logical.

Sure enough, the incense in the censer was still burning intermittently.

There was a commotion outside.

"It's not good, it's not good, ma'am, the Duke was assassinated."

It was the boy who had gone out with the Duke in the morning to spread the news, and now he ran back covered in blood, shouting as he ran.

Naturally, it is reminiscent of nonsense.

Mrs. Wei and Nurse Jiao who was beside her looked at each other, and Nurse Jiao nodded slightly.

Seeing that a big stone fell from Mrs. Wei's heart, when she raised her eyes again, the tears kept falling as if a dike had been burst.

He hurried out of the courtyard gate.

"What's going on? How could you be stabbed, sir! What about people!"

Mrs. Wei has been in the back residence for decades, and no one can compare to acting.

Therefore, the one who cried was called a sad person, and soon the whole Xiyuan was alarmed.

Shang Qilang was not at home, but Shiro and Shiro's wife were guarding Shang Zhihe, so they didn't go out.

Hearing this movement, the husband and wife's complexion is not very good.

The son was seriously injured and the father is about to fall down before he fully recovers?
Is their Duke's mansion unlucky recently or something, why all the unlucky things happened at the same time?

So Shiro said anxiously.

"Just look at He'er, I'll go outside and have a look, I can't let anything happen to my father at this time."

"Okay, my husband, let's go."

What kind of abacus they had in mind was clear to each other.

Although it is impossible to overthrow Shang Ji and snatch the position of the young master, it does not mean that they can really live under Shang Ji's hands.

Not to mention, if the father is gone.

Those who took over the Duke's Mansion must be Shang Ji and his wife.

If Mrs. Du took charge of the family, their food and clothing expenses would not be so easily included in the account of Zhongfu in the future.

In this regard, the couple are like a mirror.

So Shang Shiro hurried out the door.

Not long after, I also met Mrs. Wei who was out of breath from crying and a servant boy covered in blood.

There was a beating in his heart.

Isn't it so unlucky?

Quickly walked a few steps, stepped forward and asked.

"What's going on? Where's father?"

The boy was obviously frightened, he was trembling and couldn't even speak clearly.

Shang Shilang was so anxious to hear that, he slapped the boy for the first time when he got angry, and then said with cruelty in his eyes.

"Straighten your tongue and speak, don't hesitate."

The boy was slapped, and was in a daze for a long time.

Fortunately, this blow took away a lot of his fear, so he said in horror after swallowing his saliva.

"Fourth Master, I accompanied the Duke of the country to court today, and the road was peaceful, but when I came back, something happened. It was in the neighborhood of Pingle. Some gangsters came out of nowhere. Without further ado, he stepped forward and rushed towards the carriage of our Duke's mansion."
