Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 144 Dog Cave
"I can't tell you clearly. I just feel that he found me by smell."

Zhidong herself didn't figure it out, but a voice in her heart told her that her intuition was not wrong.

The smell? Tang Bingxuan is a master of poison making and is also very sensitive to smells. Although Zhidong can't explain why, her girl knows that Zhidong is not a person who talks nonsense.

He patted Zhidong's shoulder comfortingly, "We'll take a closer look at the child next time we see him."

Tang Bingxuan got on the bed and covered herself with quilt to get ready for a nap. She asked Zhidong to help her move the stove further away from the bed, otherwise she would definitely feel dry and uncomfortable when she woke up.

She closed her eyes and was about to go to meet Duke Zhou when Tang Bingxuan suddenly opened them again and solemnly told Zhidong: "Tell your uncle to take a nap in the east corner next door and don't come and disturb me."

Zhidong responded lightly, "Yes." He helped Tang Bingxuan tuck in the quilt, put down the bed curtain, and walked out of the inner room.

After Jiang Shunian finished lunch, he took Jiang Ming and Jiang Qi for a walk in the village. The purpose was to find out how Shen Jianxing, a five or six-year-old child, could run from the village next door to his own village without being noticed by the people in the village. .

If there are so many slaves in Zhuangzi and they cannot prevent a young child from coming in and out, if a bad person comes into Zhuangzi one day, he will probably be killed.

The three masters and servants walked around Zhuangzi for a long time before they found a dog hole covered by weeds in the west corner of Zhuangzi. If you looked casually, you would not be able to find this round dog hole about 30 centimeters.

Jiang Qi stepped forward to check and found that someone must have been in and out of the dog hole not long ago, and the weeds showed signs of being bent by friction.

Jiang Shunian ordered the two of them, "Find a mason to fill this dog hole, and then carefully check whether there are other dog holes in the village, and fill up all the ones that are missing."

It was probably the first time Shen Jianxing and Shen Ruhua came to the Qin family's hot spring village. Jiang Shunian was surprised and confused that he could find the dog hole in the village so quickly at such a young age.

I'm afraid the Qin family's village also has a dog hole. It's really unbelievable for a five or six-year-old child to enter and exit two unfamiliar villages through a dog hole.

After finding the way for Shen Jianxing to enter Zhuangzi, Jiang Shunian went back to take a nap with Tang Bingxuan with peace of mind, but was informed by Zhidong from outside that he should sleep in the east corner.

You can imagine how surprised Jiang Shunian was after hearing Zhidong's narration. Wasn't it just a prank on her? His wife is very good at holding grudges.

Then the redness and swelling all over his body emerged in Fu Zhi's mind. Jiang Shunian comforted himself that his wife's methods were very gentle, so it was good that she didn't drug him.

Jiang Shunian washed up obediently, and went to Dongshao Room to take a nap without any hesitation, which made Zhidong's active little heart resume its normal beating. He was really afraid that his uncle would be disobedient and want to make trouble with the girl.

...

The next day, Shen Ruhua and his son Shen Jianxing came to visit.

Tang Bingxuan and Jiang Shunian were quite surprised. After all, Shen Ruhua didn't feel like someone who would drop by and chat with others.

Shen Ruhua and Mrs. Hou Shizi of Wu'an were of different ages, and Jiang Shunian could not accompany Tang Bingxuan to receive them. Tang Bingxuan could only deal with Ruhua mother and son alone.

After Shen Ruhua brought Shen Jianxing and Tang Bingxuan to meet him, he expressed his intention straight to the point, "Xing'er was stimulated when she was a child. Three years ago, she stopped talking and didn't pay much attention to people;
Yesterday, I saw that Xing'er got along well with Miss Zhidong in my house, so I took the liberty of bringing Xing'er to bother you and your wife, and asked the third lady to pay attention. "

Shen Ruhua has a cool temper, but the tone of her words does not make the other party feel that she is superior, as if she is just stating the facts plainly. Tang Bingxuan was not unhappy with the arrival of Shen Ruhua's mother and son, but she just received them normally, letting Zhidong take Shen Jianxing to play in the Nuan Pavilion while she and Shen Ruhua communicated in the living room.

Even though Shen Ruhua was born in an ordinary family since she was a child, her grandfather, Mr. Shen, was a well-educated and elegant scholar, so he devoted all his efforts to the training of his granddaughter.

It can be seen from Shen Ruhua's conversation that she has good knowledge and opinions. She is not an arty woman who does not want to live in the world, but she can talk to Tang Bingxuan very well.

Shen Ruhua talked about some local delicacies and interesting local characteristics of Qianzhou, and the look on her face when talking about her hometown Qianzhou was full of nostalgia and longing;

Tang Bingxuan also told Shen Ruhua some interesting things and delicious stores in Kyoto, as well as some experiences of traveling to Yunzhou.

It was just half an hour of gossip, but the two of them talked a lot like close friends, and Shen Ruhua's words lacked a hint of coldness.

Tang Bingxuan warmly invited Shen Ruhua's mother and son to visit Zhuangzi, "Sister Shen, if she has some free time, she can bring Xing'er to my Zhuangzi to play. I usually have nothing to do and have no sisters to talk to."

Since Shen Ruhua came to Kyoto with her son Shen Jianxing, she has rarely gone out in the past three years, let alone having friends drop by;
He and Tang Bingxuan only got to know each other because of their son Shen Jianxing. Seeing that Tang Bingxuan came from a noble family and was dating her as a concubine, she didn't have any airs of condescension;

In her heart, she really wants to make a new friend, Tang Bingxuan. If her identity is revealed in the future, she will have someone in Kyoto who can speak her mind.

Shen Ruhua smiled lightly and responded, "I'll definitely come and bother you when the time comes."

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Shen Ruhua and Tang Bingxuan talked for a long time, and even their son Shen Jianxing forgot to pay attention;

Tang Bingxuan suggested going to see what Shen Jianxing and Zhidong were doing. Neither of them were in Nuange, so Tang Bingxuan took Shen Ruhua to find where Zhidong and Shen Jianxing were.

Zhidong took Shen Jianxing to play with small toys such as jigsaw puzzles and nine-link rings in Nuange. Shen Jianxing didn't speak but had no problem listening to others;

Zhidong played with him in the house, and he sat quietly on the soft couch playing with the jigsaw puzzle and nine rings.

Shen Jianxing remained silent and expressionless. Zhidong played with Shen Jianxing and fed him snacks and sweet water from time to time, feeling his inner joy.

Seeing with his own eyes Shen Jianxing, a six-year-old child, playing with the jigsaw puzzle into various shapes and quickly solving the nine-link puzzle, Zhidong had to sigh that Shen Jianxing was smarter than the young masters in the Duke's mansion.

Zhidong saw that his young lady and Mrs. Shen were chatting happily, so he asked Shen Jianxing for permission, and they went to the backyard kitchen to cook.

When Shen Ruhua and Tang Bingxuan went to the kitchen in the backyard, they happened to see Zhidong taking Shen Jianxing to make snacks at the door of the kitchen. The clean and chubby cute boy now turned into a little cat with flour on his face.

Shen Ruhua grew up in an ordinary family. She was not unhappy at all when Zhidong took his son Shen Jianxing to make snacks without authorization. However, when he saw Shen Jianxing obediently and clumsily helping Zhidong, Shen Ruhua's eyes instantly filled with heat. Come up.

In her heart, Tang Bingxuan didn't feel that Zhidong was doing something wrong, just taking the children to play, but Shen Jianxing was someone else's child after all, so it was always rude to bring Shen Jianxing into the kitchen to help.
