Chapter 23

Seeing Lou's walk away, Shuyuan sighed and turned around: she doesn't have that kind of extravagant hope to be friends with Lou, it's not that she and Lou are both sisters-in-law, but her and Lou's relationship. Temperament is too bad.However, Shuyuan really doesn't want to become enemies with Lou, so it's not bad for now.

After she knew Lou's scheme, after thinking about it, she simply fulfilled Lou, and at the same time "saved" herself: Although she was pregnant, she didn't have to worry about Jin Chengye spending the night in her room, but Jin Chengye came to sit with her every night. It also felt quite stressful.

Lou wants Jin Chengye to spend more time with her, but Shuyuan can't consider Jin Chengye as her husband now: so Shuyuan uses what she feels is useless to cater to Lou's mind, just so that Lou has something to do.

For some things, Shuyuan thinks that it is better to have someone help her if she does it herself.She is unfamiliar with everything in the Jin Mansion, not as familiar as Lou's; also, she thinks that neither the old lady nor Jin Chengye will be happy that she wants to know more about the background of the two children.

The most important point is that Shuyuan is now more and more sure that the old lady, Jin Chengye and others have concealed some things, and if they want to know the truth, they can't startle the snake; if it's up to her to do it, it's better to let Lou's go.

Sister-in-law, alas.

Shuyuan couldn't help shaking her head slightly, she really didn't know how to get along well with Lou; just like her sister and other sisters-in-law, it's really heartwarming to be like sisters in the mansion .

Yulu came up to her just right: "Ma'am, we need to hurry up, otherwise we will keep the old lady and the ladies waiting for a long time." As she spoke, she beckoned the carriage to come.

Shuyuan really didn't have the mood to go to the restaurant, even though her mother was there; after thinking about it, she decided to go back to the house early to rest on the grounds of being pregnant: she really didn't have the mood to play until now.

It may also be related to pregnancy, she is really lazy to move.

Back in the mansion, Shuyuan wanted to take a nap, so she sent Yulu and Yunwu out, and she sat slowly in front of the dressing table by herself; since she woke up, she liked to be quiet, and many times she didn't like to be surrounded by people.

I can think better when I am alone.

She was stunned for a while and then sighed softly. When she took off the hairpin and put it on the table, she saw something pressed under the small rouge box, which should be something like paper.

Shuyuan stretched out and took it out to see clearly that it was Fang Sheng, which was folded from yellow paper; the paper is very cheap yellow paper, which is often used to make Ming coins, so it is really rare.

Where did this Fang Sheng come from?Shu Yuan didn't open it in a hurry, but played with Fang Sheng. She looked around the room: she didn't pay attention beforehand, so now she can't be sure that something has been moved in the room.

It seemed that there was nothing unusual in the house, and there was no sign that someone had come in and turned it over.She didn't call the maids to come in either, she got up and walked to the window to look out, then opened the door and looked left and right.

There are two front and back entrances to the Tea Fragrance Court. In addition to the main room where she lives, there is a small moon door connecting the left and right wing rooms and the wing rooms, which lead to the back yard; There is only a small back door outside the house where I live.

Today was no different from usual, the front door was open, two little girls were sitting on the porch of the yard, and a servant woman had just watered the flowers—speaking of which, there were not many people in the yard.

Seeing the people in the courtyard looking over, Shuyuan turned back to the house without saying a word and closed the door again. What can be confirmed now is: it is impossible for anyone other than the Tea Fragrance House to enter her room without disturbing anyone. Fang Sheng must be Someone in the yard let it in while no one was looking.

After sitting down, she gently took Fang Sheng apart, wondering what would be written on it.This is not the ink and brush that ordinary people usually use, but the characters written with charcoal, so the characters are not blurred and each character can be seen very clearly.

The font is a bit long, and the beginning of each stroke has to be a little stronger. I have to say that this character is really worthy of the word "beautiful".

From this, it can be seen that the people who write are not only literate but also have read books in a serious manner. Can't compare to this guy.

However, the handwriting is a bit sloppy, and the person Shuyuan wanted to write must have written in a hurry: Is it because he is afraid of being discovered that he is so anxious?

If it was really important for Shuyuan to see it first, she would not choose such an "exquisite" method: yesterday, people in the mansion knew that the masters of the Jin family were not in the mansion today, and Shuyuan's return was just a temporary idea Otherwise, she should have returned home with the old lady and others in the evening.

If she is really in a hurry to see it, it would be faster to put the paper in her room than to put it in the carriage: this person can put Fang Sheng on her dressing table, and of course he can also find out that she will be riding in the carriage today. Which carriage is it.

The writer was not in a hurry to let her know what was on the paper, but he wrote in such a hurry that he could only write in a room where someone would enter at any time.The paper and pens used are extremely vulgar, and it should not be done by a certain master of the Jin family.

Shuyuan could only think of these for a while, so she carefully read what was written on the paper: "You should agree to Lu's entry, and it is a due meaning; if you don't agree, you will never know why you came here. Fainted. You should know even if I don’t tell you, the Jin family will not tell you, absolutely not.”

"I know everything. As long as you agree to the Lu family's entry, I will write everything to tell you. In case you don't believe me, let me tell you something that shocked you. The two children Rui Ren and Fang Fei were not born by girls. "

Shuyuan read the words on the paper over and over ten times, and then turned the paper over to see that there was nothing on the back of the paper.

After reading the paper over and over again, she could only confirm one thing: the paper was a bit old; other than that, she found nothing else.

She put the paper on the dressing table and looked at it and thought for a long time, then slowly folded the paper according to the old marks, and then put the restored Fang Sheng under the rouge box again.

Shuyuan looked at herself in the mirror, picked up the hairpin she took off and put it back on her head, sat back to take off the hairpin after getting up, and at the same time took a bead flower from her head and put it on the dressing table at the same time as the hairpin : It was not put into the makeup box, but placed on the table.

After looking at the dressing table and feeling satisfied, Shuyuan raised her voice and called the girls to come in: "Yunwu and Yulu, you all can make a few small dishes, I remember that your craftsmanship is not bad, you will make a few dishes in a while and then boil the pot of wine; wait When your grandfather comes back, invite him to dinner at night."

Yulu agreed, then raised her head and said, "Get the dishes that the two uncles like, and the dishes that the two girls like; just make..." She was very happy, because it is a good thing that the girls are finally willing to get close to the uncle Son, how can it be like a husband and wife who always refuse my uncle thousands of miles away?
As long as the relationship is not maintained, it will fade away day by day, not to mention that their uncle is not the only wife of their girl.

"Don't be so troublesome. I want to eat the dishes you made, and make them all the dishes I like." Shuyuan interrupted Yulu: "Pick my favorite dishes and make more. I I didn't eat much outside today."

Yulu didn't understand, but she opened her mouth to ask what she wanted to ask, but she still couldn't ask.She wanted to do her best, but now it sounded like her daughter's plan confused her: Of course, I wanted to get close to my uncle on purpose, but why didn't I cook my uncle's favorite dishes?

Yunwu didn't have any questions, she just stood there obediently except for saying "yes", even when Yulu spoke, she didn't move.

After thinking for a while, Shu Yuan looked at the two girls: "Who do you think should invite your uncle?"

Yulu looked at Yunwu without saying a word, and Yunwu replied directly: "Silver needle."

Shuyuan nodded: "Then let Yinzhen invite you. Well, what's the difference between Biluo and Yinzhen?"

Only then did Yunwu raise her head: "Yinzhen needs to be less courageous and sincere. If she asks her to invite her master, she won't talk too much. She will only say what she is told; even if someone asks her, she won't be able to say anything. Come." It's not that I don't say it, but I can't say it.

"Biluo needs to be clever, she is good with the little girls and women in our yard, asking her to invite you can turn one sentence into two sentences and make him happy." Yunwu mentioned that Biluo was in the Tea Fragrance Court. When she was popular, Yulu took a look at her.

"As for the maidservant and Yulu, because they are the girl's dowry girls, even if they have nothing to do, people will think that the girl has something to do. Of course, it's better not to attract attention in the mansion." Yunwu said at the end that Shu Yuan didn't ask. .

Shuyuan didn't say much, and didn't express her satisfaction, so she sent the two girls out to get food, and she sat at the moon gate, calling Biluo to accompany her, as if she was enjoying the cool.

Biluo was a little puzzled: "Young Mistress, the wind is still cold this season, and it's drafty. Your body is in good shape, why don't you go back to the house? It's really hot, how about the servant girl fanning Young Mistress?"

Shuyuan smiled and looked back at the backyard: "Biluo, where did you work in the past? I mean, where did you work before you and me, and who is the master?"

"Why did the young mistress think of asking this? The maid was originally served in the old lady's yard, and she was just a second-class girl;" Biluo said while helping Shu Yuan up: "The person the old lady wants to give to the young mistress is not a maid. It's a pity that sister Xiuxin fell ill."

Shuyuan looked at her when she heard the words: "Oh, are you sick? Biluo, I don't know a few people in the yard. Let the people in the yard stop wandering around tonight. I want to meet them all. The people in the yard don’t know all about it, it’s okay if there’s nothing wrong, if something really happened, I’m afraid it’s going to be a big deal, don’t you think?”

Biluo paused and raised her head when she heard the words: "Young Mistress, you..."
