Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 229 The Fourth Master of the Shen Family
As usual, Shen's mansion is a large decoration of the Gaomen compound, with a strong aura, standing in front of the gate and looking up, inadvertently makes people feel a little eerie,

Han Kui led Li Xin and Guan Wen to enter through the main gate, which obviously exaggerated the two of them.

The corridor was winding, Han Kui led the two of them into a flower hall, and told them to wait later, he ordered the little maid in charge of the hall to tell his wife to tell his wife that the guests had arrived.

Another person brought a brocade spring stool, went to the pot Longjing, and politely chatted with Guan Wen.

It's not that Guan Wen has never been in or out of a rich family's house, and his behavior is open and generous.Han Kui secretly observed the behavior of Guan Wen and his wife. Putting aside the concerns that Li Xin felt wrong last time, he still felt that the two couples were hard-working and down-to-earth people, and they had a very happy conversation with Guan Wen.

Li Xin was a little absent-minded, while Han Kui was talking to Guan Wen, she lowered her head and secretly considered whether Mrs. Shen would mention Axiu's matter to her later.

Although she had told Axiu before Axiu left that such a thing had to be rejected, being a concubine was not so easy to do, she couldn't demean herself and be willing to be a concubine.Axiu also agreed, but which young girl is not impulsive?Axiu's temperament is sometimes too straightforward, if she likes it, she likes it, if she doesn't like it, she doesn't like it, and I don't know if she has her mind in the end, or... Will she offend Madam Shen with her words when she refuses? ?
After all, no matter how you look at it, she still doesn't know Mrs. Shen very well.The noble lady in the courtyard of the house had too many twists and turns in her mind, and she thought she couldn't compare to others.

Just when Li Xin was worried and Han Kui and Guan Wen had a good chat, Han Kui's family came in.

Seeing Li Xin, Han Kuai's family called "Big Sister", Li Xin stood up and introduced Guan Wen, Han Kui's family called "Big Brother-in-law" again, and then directed a few young maids to tidy up the flower hall, On the table is a brocade tree and catechu cups inlaid with silver silk.

After doing this set of movements, the maids kept their movements very light.It can be seen that the rules of the Shen residence are extremely strict.

Han Kui's family said: "Big sister, the madam will be here soon, please wait a long time."

As soon as the words were finished, the cheerful voice of the little boy came from the promenade in front of the flower hall. After a while, a noble lady paced out from the corner. She was still dressed in plain clothes, but she still looked graceful and luxurious.She was accompanied by an old mother and a young servant girl.

Li Xin hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and called "Mrs. Shen".

The baby's voice that I heard just now should be Mrs. Shen's eldest grandson, the young master named "Rui Xuan".The grandma took him away and he called "Grandma" unhappily.

Mrs. Shen looked very happy, she waved to the young master, and asked the nanny to take him down, then she went up and shook Li Xin's hand and said with a smile: "I've wanted to invite you here for a long time, but I just want to meet you again." During the holidays, your family is probably busy, so I didn't bother you."

Li Xin also laughed and said, "Ma'am, what are you talking about? If Manager Han doesn't come, I will come by myself."

Li Xin and Nanny Xia stood on Madam Shen's side. Madam Shen smiled and walked to the brocade tree. Bi Tao moved the brocade tree and let Madam Shen sit down safely. Madam Shen said: "The head of your family is here too."

"Yes, today was just a coincidence. Originally, we were going to the town to do some business. We met Guanshi Han on the way, so we came together."

Li Xin smiled, and Mrs. Shen made a "please" gesture to Guan Wen: "There is no need to be formal, you are a guest when you come. Please sit down."

Han Kui also said at the side: "Guan brother, sit down quickly."

Only then did Guan Wen punch Mrs. Shen and sit down. Mrs. Shen exchanged greetings with Li Xin and asked her how her new year was going and how things were going well at home.Li Xin picked up some irrelevant interesting things and said them, it was to please Mrs. Shen, to make her laugh, other things such as her eldest cousin passed away, her eldest brother became the village chief, etc. were not mentioned carry.

Although the new year is over, it's still the beginning of the new year. Who wants to hear that someone in your family died and got promoted?The more wealthy the family, the greater the rules.

Fortunately, Mrs. Shen just took this opportunity to chat with Li Xin, and after she had said something, she turned the matter into the main topic.

The Shen family knew all the raw materials, they had all prepared, and the personnel were deployed, and they were just waiting for Li Xin's process.

After chatting with Mrs. Shen for a while, Li Xin proposed to visit the workshop.Mrs. Shen was naturally happy, and asked Han Kui to let him entertain Guan Wen, and she invited Li Xin to the workshop.

Along the way, they didn't mention Axiu, and they talked about the handicraft workshop newly opened by Shen's family. They told Li Xin in detail, and Li Xin listened very carefully.Madam Xia and Bitao interjected a sentence or two from time to time, and Mrs. Shen laughed and said, "I've been using the things you gave me these days, but the master also said that my skin looks better, so I can use it myself. I feel comfortable. If it is really made and sold in batches, the profit should not be low."

Li Xin just responded with a smile, but didn't say much else.

Han Kui didn't dare to take Guan Wen to wander around the inner house of Shen's mansion, so he invited Guan Wen to sit in a garden hall at the second gate, and asked two people who looked like small stewards to accompany Guan Wen to drink tea. play tricks.While chatting, I heard a man's frivolous voice.

Han Kui turned his head and looked over, suddenly one head and two big, he quickly stood up and bowed his back and called "Fourth Lord".

It was the fourth master of the Shen family who came.

Guan Wen didn't know him, so when he heard Han Kui's address, he also got up and hugged his fists as a courtesy.

The names of several masters of the Shen family all contain "Yu". Uncle Shen's name is Shen Changke, and like Shen Erye Shen Changling, he is an official of the people's parents elsewhere, and his official reputation is very good.Shen Sanye Shen Changyu and Shen Fourth Master Shen Changyu are the odd numbers in the Shen family. They joined the army in Youzhou in the far north, and they are nearly twenty-five years old but haven't married yet;

Although Fourth Master Shen is a dude, his appearance is still like a crown of jade, like a tree facing the wind, but his words and actions always show a frivolous taste.

Seeing Guan Wen's new face at this time, he couldn't help but smile, "Hey, when did the mansion get a newcomer?"

Han Kui smiled awkwardly, and replied, "Fourth Master, this is a guest invited by Madam."

"Guest..." Fourth Master Shen looked Guan Wen up and down, giggled twice, and said, "So it's a guest, I'm sorry and disrespectful. Since my father is not here, let my son accompany the guest." alright."

As he said that, the boss rudely kicked away the little steward who was standing by the side of the stool with his head bowed, and sat down on the stool by himself, which happened to be opposite to Guan Wen.

"Guest, sit down, you're welcome!" He said to a string of four "candied haws" behind him: "What are you still doing, you can't look at me? Hurry up and serve rose hibiscus cake to my grandfather, soak two pots of the good ones Come Tieguanyin!"

The four maidservants looked at each other, bowed down and said yes, and then quickly retreated.

Han Kui stood aside in embarrassment, Fourth Master Shen pointed to the opposite side of him and said, "Guest, sit down, you're welcome."

Guan Wen's face darkened slightly, but this is in the family's house, and he can't take the face of the master.After thinking about it, I suppressed my anger in my heart and sat down.

It's not good for Han Kui now, it's okay for him to sit and chat with Guan Wen in the past, but now that Fourth Master Shen is sitting, he can't sit anymore.

The scene suddenly became awkward.

Fourth Master Shen said carelessly: "I don't know why the guest came to my house?"

Guan Wen replied neither humble nor overbearing: "My surname is Guan, and there is only one word for each name. Fourth master can just call me Guan Wen."

"Guan Wen..." Fourth Master Shen grinned and nodded: "Okay! I'll call you Guan Wen!" Then he asked bluntly: "I said, what's the matter with your face? Was it chopped off? "

Han Kui moved his feet and wanted to intervene, but Guan Wen went back to Shen Siye first and said, "Yes, he was chopped down by the bandits when we were fighting with them."

Fourth Master Shen was stunned for a moment, but his face was serious: "Have you ever had a fight with bandits?"

"Yes." Guan Wen said, "It happened two or three years ago."

Fourth Master Shen immediately yelled: "Okay!" Then he gave Guan Wen a thumbs up: "He's a man!"

Guan Wen's expression didn't change much, he still didn't have a good impression of the "Master" in front of him.

Fourth Master Shen leaned down again, and asked Guan Wen, "You are fighting with bandits, can you see what they look like?" Before Guan Wen could answer, he added, "My third brother was injured this time. On the way back, he had a fight with the Bandit, he still had old wounds, he was also a strong man... But when I asked him what the Bandit looked like, he didn't pay me much attention, and just said a few perfunctory words to me Drive me away. You have fought with bandits, tell me about it."

Guan Wen glanced at Fourth Master Shen, and Fourth Master Shen looked at him eagerly. At this time, Fourth Master Shen seemed like a child with a strong thirst for knowledge.

Guan Wen said indifferently: "It's just like a human being."

"Nonsense!" Shen Siye suddenly became unhappy: "Could it be that bandits are still demons and goblins? Of course I know that bandits are human, and it's impossible for them to be three-headed and six-armed. Asking you what they look like is asking you about their clothes." ? It's really strange for you to answer those words!"

Fourth Master Shen was very upset, he glared at Guan Wen and asked with a shy face, "How did they dress up? Oh, yes, why did you fight bandits? Who are you?"

Han Kui finally said something next to him: "Fourth Master, the brothers of the Guan family used to be bodyguards, and naturally they met bandits when they were bodyguards."

"That's it..." Fourth Master Shen nodded in satisfaction, "That makes sense. Alright man, tell me about the bandit's attire right now? Did any maidservants get robbed when you were guarding?" Going to be a cottage wife?"

Guan Wen clenched his fist slightly, and replied in a calm voice with a slight fluctuation: "No."

"No?" Fourth Master Shen was immediately disappointed: "It's too boring."

"Fourth master, is it interesting that someone is robbed?" Guan Wen finally couldn't help but replied: "The bandits are all about killing and stealing goods. Anyone who encounters them will have to face the danger of family ruin. Make it a joke!"

Fourth Master Shen was just pinching a dried longan to play with, when Guan Wen's words came out, he was a little startled.

After a while, he "hummed" and said, "I'll just ask you a few words, and you've taught me a lot..."

He clapped his hands and stood up and said: "Talking to you is meaningless, and I can't even say a single point. It is written in the scriptures that the mountain bandit robbed the girl and went to the deep mountains and old forests to become Mrs. Yazhai or something... that's right. By the way, isn't the girl from the Cui family in front lost? Maybe she was robbed by bandits..."

Before he finished speaking, Guan Wen slapped the table with a "bang" and stood up. His voice seemed a bit cold, "Shen Siye, because you are the master of the mansion, I respect you. But the girl from Cui's family Dart, all the bandits who appeared were killed by the rest of the guards. When you say that about the girl from the Cui family, you are mocking those who are trying their best to get back the lives of other Cui family members and even take their own lives. Bodyguards! These words are a disgrace to the kind of people with their heads pinned to their waistbands!"

Guan Wen's words were very serious, and his voice was very high. He said it so loudly that there was a sudden silence after he finished speaking.

Fourth Master Shen moved his lips, pulled the corners of his mouth, took two quick breaths, and then...

Run away?
Han Kui rubbed his eyes, did he read it right?The fourth master who always loves to cause trouble, but is irresponsible... unexpectedly ran away because of Brother Guan's words?Under normal circumstances, shouldn't he have counterattacked, used his name as the fourth master of the Shen family to swear harsh words at others, and then looked for various opportunities to get revenge?
why today...

Before Han Kui turned the corner, Guan Wen's family clasped their fists at him and said, "Guanshi Han, I'm sorry, I'm... out of control."

Han Kui immediately came back to his senses, nodded clearly, and comforted him: "I understand, I understand, the head of the Weiwu Escort Bureau is old with you..." Manager Han sighed: "It's okay, it's okay, fourth master I'm used to being unrestrained, Madam won't blame you if she finds out about this today." He whispered, "But you have to be careful, fourth master is a little narrow-minded, I'm afraid... he will look for opportunities to seek revenge."

Guan Wen laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, I'm afraid it's... causing trouble to your family."

Han Kui reached out and patted Guan Wen's shoulder, thinking about how to tell her about this when his wife came back later.

Li Xin was busy in the workshop for about two hours before he was able to catch his breath. The basic procedures were almost all arranged and staffed, and tomorrow he was waiting for the assembly line to work on various details.This was too panicky, and Mrs. Shen also knew that she must be a little tired. Seeing her walking back, she asked Bitao to pour her tea.

Li Xin drank the tea ceremony: "Madam arranged it very well, and there are enough people."

Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "I've been busy for a long time, let's go back first, and get busy tomorrow."

Li Xin nodded, Mrs. Shen took her hand and walked in front, Nanny Xia and Bitao followed behind, and there were two strong servants behind her.

While walking, Mrs. Shen asked Li Xin what the workshop needed to improve. Li Xin said a little bit, and Mrs. Shen just nodded.Halfway through, Mrs. Shen suddenly laughed softly, as if chatting about ordinary things, she said to Li Xin: "A few days ago, your sister-in-law came to see me."
