Chapter 52 Plum Pattern Hairpin
She hasn't gone out with him for many years!The point is how could she be willing to let him and Shen Xi be alone?
So he hurriedly said: "Yes, I have time! I also want to go out for a walk. The spring scenery in our Xingergou is very good, it is worth visiting."

She has said that, what else can Ding say?
Her face in Lin's mansion is not as great as Lin Pei's. He is the eldest son of the Lin family, and she is just a house filler.What is he going to do, can she still hold him tightly?
Just a word from the old lady at home is enough for her to bear it for a long time.

Usually in the mansion, Lin Pei didn't spend many days by her side. It was rare for him to fall in love with the Shen family, and every time she came over, he would follow her around.

With this opportunity to get along with him for a while, she will not easily go against his will.

If you make him unhappy, what should you do if you don't come with her next time?
Smile here, even if it is a response.

Here, the Huang family doesn't care who Lin Pei associates with.It's just that Shen Xin is discussing marriage with the Yang family, but she is always clinging to Lin Pei, which is a little inappropriate.

But in front of Ding's presence, it's inconvenient to say anything.

Besides, Lin Pei said just now that he would invite Shen Di, since the four of them went together, he was not afraid of getting caught up in any talk.

I didn't care about them here, and the two sisters chatted about other things on their own.

Along the way, Shen Xi thought about going to Xing'ergou and went back to his room.

When you enter the door, you will see two cans of Lu'an Guapian on the table. The jars are made of ice-cracked celadon. When you open the lid and smell it, you will be greeted with the fragrance of new tea.

There was a branch of peach blossom pinned to the lid of the jar, she picked it up to have a look, then put it back.

Just as Pearl came in, Shen Xi ordered: "In two days, go to Xing'ergou to sweep the tomb, get rid of the objects of worship, and prepare a few more sets of clothes for you to change, and you'd better bring your bedding as well."

She still doesn't know what the situation in Xing'ergou is like now, she only knows that the whole small village belongs to the Shen family's territory, except for more than a thousand acres of land, the remaining mountain soil is where the ancestor's grave is.

In addition, there is also the fish pond and vegetable land, which is simply the Zhuangzi handed down from the Shen family's ancestors, but it is not allowed to be divided and sold.

Naturally, there is also a house in the village, and the original owner spent the first three years in that house with the Second Household and others.

Although she has only been away for half a month, she had better make full preparations to avoid showing off.

Only then did Pearl know that Lin Pei left here after delivering the tea, and there was still such a conversation with her.

The dowry was being sorted out here, and he suddenly asked her, "Miss, why is the silver hairpin with two double-petaled plum blossoms missing?"

Shen Xi was changing clothes when he heard the words and stopped.

The silver hairpin she was talking about was naturally the hairpin she used to threaten that strange person after breaking into the alley that day.

When it fell on the ground and was not picked up, how could it be found?

"I put it away," she said.

After speaking, he stroked the back of his left hand and sat down on the embroidered pier again.

Speaking of it, the herbal medicine given by the man was actually very effective.

However, in the past few days, the wound had already scabbed, and new pale pink flesh was exposed where the scabs had come off at both ends.

A person who bought an entire alley as his own private land, swinging on a swing at the door of his house, and surrounded by herbs with wonderful medicinal effects, who would he be?

Since he recognized that she was from Helian, why didn't he take her down immediately, but helped her stop the bleeding and heal her wounds?

Could it be that he himself is from Helian?
"It's good to put it away, the servant thought he had missed it."

Pearl walked up to her and picked up the clothes she had changed.

Now even a silver hairpin is considered valuable for them, but they can't afford to lose it casually.

Shen Xi looked away and continued changing clothes.

In any case, she had nothing to do with him.

No matter what she said, she was also the daughter of an official household, and she would never have any contact with the reckless and like him in the future.

——Yes, the kind of unrestrainedness exuding from him, the kind of undisguised surprise when he first saw her barging in, and the kind of unfettered feeling made her subconsciously feel that he was just a wandering rivers and lakes. the reckless.

Only those who grow up without any scruples can have that kind of emotion that comes from their heart, right?

On the side of the long room, Ding's mother and son left after lunch.

Because Lin Pei invited her to go outing, Shen Xin was immersed in joy all afternoon.

She has been outside Beijing for many years, and she was not very keen on things like going out for a stroll, but since Lin Pei invited her, how could she not be happy?

This day, she was in a good mood as if she had wings. Even when the little maid broke a teacup, she rarely scolded her.

It's just that when she became noisy here, everyone in the house knew that she was going to Xing'ergou with Shen Xi.

When the words reached Shen Ruopu's ears, he was a little surprised.

It took them only half a month to return home, and he didn't intend to let them go to the grave again.

But she had such filial piety, of course he had no reason to stop her.

After dinner, I called her to the study and asked her, "I heard you are going to visit the grave?"

"Nothing can be hidden from grandfather." Shen Xi nodded. "Ching Ming is just around the corner. According to the rules of my court, it is necessary to go up the mountain to worship."

Ever since she knew the cause of Shen Chongxin and his wife's death, her opinion of Shen Ruopu has changed a little.

Although it is not enough for her to completely stand in his position, judging from their current situation, he is the only barrier they can protect.

In any case, she had no reason to deliberately displease him.

"Then how are you going to go?" Shen Ruopu asked again.

She said: "I have already agreed with Young Master Lin that he and Eldest Sister are going to Xing'er Valley for an outing, so Brother Liang and I will ride with them in a carriage.

"It's just that the outing will take some time, and if you want to come back with Mr. Lin and the others, you may have to stay there for a night or two.

"So I asked the maids to bring a change of clothes and bedding. Naturally, I will come back with my eldest sister and the others."

Shen Ruopu saw that she responded freely and arranged everything logically, so he couldn't help but look at her twice.

I saw that her attire was no different from the past, but the impetuous and stubborn look in her eyebrows and eyes was gone. If I said I was annoyed when I looked at her before, but my eyes were still comfortable.

Then he said: "Although your father is sorry for my Shen family, it is ultimately due to you for nurturing. It is rare for you to have such filial piety, and it is considered that they did not love you in vain."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the flower stand in front of the case and thought for a while, then frowned and looked at her and said, "You can pay for the expenses here. Go to your third aunt to pay 20 taels of silver!"

Shen Xi didn't expect to be able to get money from the office, it was a surprise, but seeing that he was clearly in a normal mood at the beginning, but when it came to asking her to get the money, he was very angry, so he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

But that's nothing.

She thanked her and left.

Shen Ruopu frowned in the room and thought for a while, then called Lai Fu'an again: "Since it's Sister Xin and Brother Di who are going, then you can pass on a message that Brother Qu, Sister Yan and the others in the house will also go to the grave." Bye-Bye."
