The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 195 Mother and Son

The banquet in the front hall made people feel uneasy, but the back was peaceful and peaceful.

The world of women is just those few things.

After the meal, everyone shouted to push the cards again. Gu Huaishu had never been very active, and he hadn't gone out in the past few years. He had forgotten all about it, so he simply asked the maids to take her to the lake behind.

The maids in Shen Yuan naturally knew that although Gu Huaishu didn't put on airs, she was a down-to-earth official wife, with a smile on her face, she asked enviously how the patterns on her clothes came from.

Gu Huaishou just chatted slowly with the maids, passed the koi pond, behind there was a peach garden, a pear garden, and a row of parrots.

She looked at the parrot amusedly, and suddenly asked: "Do you know anyone who can only talk?"

"Are you looking for a starling?" The maid looked young and said in a sweet voice, "Our brother's favorite bird is here. Look, it's this starling , but you are smart, it was Master Shen who brought Brother and Brother to amuse him, and he learned his tongue very well."

"Very powerful! Very powerful!"

A mynah whose coat color is not very bright, even looks a little gray, only the eyes are very bright, standing on the crossbar, looking solid, and then noisily followed what the previous maid said.

Gu Huaishu just stood in front and watched, said: "You really can learn the tongue, and you know how to praise yourself."

The servant girl said: "In the beginning, I didn't say so much, I just said 'Hi, brother', 'Hello, brother'. In the beginning, Master Shen taught me to shout. At that time, my brother was not as old as he is now. It was when he was too sick to go out. Later, our master hung the bird cage with him in front of the bed and talked to my brother. As a result, my brother taught it to be so clever. Everyone said that my brother is better than Shen Ye Woolen cloth……"

Listening to this servant girl saying "brother", it seems that she and her brother are in the Shen Garden, but in fact they are quite popular.

Gu Huaishu stretched out his finger, took a small dish of bird food from the basket next to him, and put it in front of the starling: "That's why you, Mr. Shen, are lazy. Although I don't like him, he's quite flexible after all. .”

The servant girl's expression was about to change, she just felt that Gu Huaishu's words were too scary.

After all, he is also a guest in the garden, so why speak so impolitely?
What does Gu Huaishu need to be polite to Shen Yang?

She shook the small dish in her hand, trying to attract the attention of this starling, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you after hearing about these ailments. I'm just praising you Master Shen..."

At least she took care of her sleeves and never denied that Shen Chao was very capable.

Everyone is familiar with 36 Strategies, but not many can use it.

However, both Zhang Tingyu and Shen Yang are masters in the field, you can bear it and I can bear it, each has its own ability.

When it comes to closing the net at the end, who is unlucky?

"It just ate something, so it doesn't eat now?"

Gu Huaixiu shook the small plate of bird food for a long time, but none of the starlings pecked away.

She was a little strange, so she turned around and asked the maid.

The topic changed all of a sudden, and the maid came back to her senses: "Myna didn't feed me, and I didn't eat anything."

"... still recognize the Lord?"

Gu Huaishu was a little unbelieving, still holding things in front of myna.

As a result, the starling chirped: "Don't eat, don't eat, don't eat!"

There was a pause in his hand, Gu Huaishu was both angry and funny, who raised such a tricky starling?
Look at this smart look.

In fact, it's just learning the tongue. When you hear the word "don't eat", you just say it, right?
I'm afraid it's because there are too many times when I don't eat, so these two are very proficient in speaking.

Here, Gu Huaixiu was helpless, but a young man in a blue robe came out of the peach forest, and when he saw Gu Huaixiu and the maid, he was taken aback.

Shen Qu came over after listening to the conversation between the servant girl and Gu Huaishu. He smiled and said, "Mynah doesn't eat what other people feed him. He's a very clever little guy. Madam, please leave this dish to me."

Turning his head to look over, Gu Huaishu was stunned: "Take brother?"

Shen Che was a little surprised, but suddenly remembered, "You are Mrs. Zhang's wife, right? I thought you were kind at the moment, but I suddenly forgot where I met you before."

Thinking about that day when he suddenly saw Gu Huaishu coming to see him, he didn't understand.

Only Gu Huaishu knew that when she walked into his house that day, she was filled with joy and anxiety.

But it's all in the past...

Gu Huaishu looked at him with a smile, and only asked: "How can this starling recognize anyone? If you don't come to feed him, this starling will always be hungry?"

"It doesn't recognize people, but he recognizes this hand." Brother Qu'er pulled the sleeve that covered the back of his hand, only showing Gu Huaixiu a small scar on the tiger's mouth, and said, "This is what this little beast gave to me back then." Peck, he will not let me catch him, but now he only eats what I give him."

As he said that, he had already taken the small plate in Gu Huaishu's hand, and put it in front of the gray starling with his right hand.

This time, the bird obediently lowered its head and pecked at the bird food.

The shelf for walking the bird was not high enough, Shen Qu almost reached Gu Huaishu's shoulder, slightly raised his head and raised his hand to give the bird something to eat.

Under the mild sunlight, Gu Huaishu looked at the child with long eyelashes and heavy shadows on his eyelids, but his eyes were very gentle. When he stared at that starling, he looked like a little pony , the skin is almost white in the sun, and the fingers are so slender that it seems that only bones are left.

It is said that people have long muscles, bones and skin, but Shen Che looks like skin and bones.

But looking at it now, it looks a little healthier than before, at least there is some blood on the lips, if there is more, maybe he can be regarded as a young man with red lips and white teeth.

Gu Huaishu looked at him and said, "You look more and more like your father."

"Does Mrs. Zhang Er know my father well?"

Shen Qu turned around in surprise, and smiled slightly.

"I don't know him very well, but in terms of looks, I still look like Aunt Xian. But everyone says I'm more like my father..."

That's right, now Gu Huaishu also said the same.

"It's the same taste engraved in your bones." After all, Gu Huaishu couldn't feel any bad feelings towards his elder brother. The crime was all done by his father, and it's just that the debtor has the owner, "I heard that you are going to pay homage to your husband, too. Have you decided on a date yet?"

"You have to follow your father's way of life. My father is a slow-witted person. This kind of thing can't be handled within half a month."

Shen Che looked relaxed, and it felt so rare to be able to walk outside to bask in the sun like this.

In the past, he could only watch others go.

Squinting his eyes comfortably, Shen Che said to his father without feeling guilty at all, "If madam wants to know, I'm afraid I have to ask him in person. But if I ask him or not? Yes, I have to ask Uncle Zhong , Uncle Zhong made up his mind much faster than him."

These are all novel insights.

The bird was pecking at the bird food on the plate little by little, making a sound of duk duk, Gu Huaishu and Shen Qu looked at it like this.

Gu Huaishu said: "I always thought that your father should be a ruthless and decisive person, why are you so indecisive..."

If Shen Qi heard his son judge him like this, he didn't know how it would feel.

Shen Qu didn't feel guilty at all, he smiled and patted mynah's head, then threw the small dish in his hand and the rest of the bird food into the basket next to him, his every move seemed to be very heavy .

No wonder people say that if this child can grow up amid many illnesses and disasters, he must be the next serious illness.

Shen Qudao: "He is decisive in business matters, but it doesn't mean he is so decisive in other matters... Don't look at him as shrewd, Uncle Zhong Heng often tells me that he is a fool."

Having said that, he looked left and right, then raised his finger at Gu Huaishu: "My father has many eyes and ears, so be careful if someone finds out."

Gu Huaishu immediately felt it was funny, and pointed at the maid next to him: "Aren't these your father's eyes and ears?"

"She is my father's running dog, and her eyes and ears are not considered..." Shen Qu shook his head, "Li Wei and Zhong Heng are right-hand men, and the eyeliner below and the shopkeeper in the shop are called eyes and ears. It's worthless in the eyes."

Shen Che, who said these things, was actually talking about himself through his father.

Gu Huaishu knew people like them very well.

Shen Qi was like this, and Shen Che who said these words was naturally like this too.

This child is young, but he is very scheming. Sometimes he acts recklessly, but it is not very obvious.

Probably because of the illness, so there is a little restraint everywhere.

Ever since he was able to go out, he came here to feed the parrots every day as usual, and it was Shen Chong who found someone to hang them one after another in the past few years.But father's business started to get busy, so he didn't have much free time. Today, taking advantage of Li Wei's birthday, he came out for a trip.

Unexpectedly, he actually met Mr. Zhang's wife outside.

Uncle Zhong Heng often told him that beautiful women are poisonous and should not be touched. He also said that if something happened to his father, it must be because of the most beautiful woman.

Now that Shen Qu thought about it, the most beautiful one he had ever seen was Mrs. Zhang Er.

Shen Qu always felt that Zhong Heng's words meant something, but he never understood what he meant until now.

While talking to Gu Huaixiu as if nothing had happened, he thought about his father's reactions in recent years.

It can be said that there was always someone in his father's heart. He lived among thousands of flowers, and almost no leaves touched his body. In the garden, newcomers and old people were replaced one after another. After all, he was still a prodigal son. You can play whatever you want, and there are countless times when you take Shen to take off the brothel tour painting boat.

Shen Qu thought about which family the girl might be from, but she was a wealthy family and didn't like his father. He respected her and loved her, so he never dared to use the things in his hands to overwhelm others.

Only now did Shen Qu understand that it was true to respect and love, but it was also true for a married woman.

Unexpectedly, his father actually liked this one.

Thinking of this, Shen Qu slightly pursed his lips and smiled, unable to bear it.

He thought it was funny, his brows and eyes were crooked with a smile, Gu Huaishu walked outside with him, and he was a little surprised when he heard him laugh: "Brother, did you see something funny?"

"It's not funny... I just think my father is ridiculous..." Shen Qu spoke very straightforwardly, and didn't like to play any tricks on this kind of thing, but...Shen Chao's ability to tease people and his goofy demeanor However, he has learned a lot, "madam, do you know that my father has always had a woman in his heart, but now I know that this woman is already someone else's wife..."

There was a slight pause in the footsteps, and Gu Huaishu's smile turned cold.

She bent her lips and said, "Your father's taste is really unique."

"I agree with Madam."

Shen Chaowen said a word, then laughed.

Gu Huaishu still couldn't understand a sentence that meant something.

She was a little annoyed at first, but when she looked back, she found that Shen He was just smiling.

"Your father is sick, take him to the doctor more often."

She curled her lips, not seeming annoyed at all, and said solemnly.

Shen Qu shook his head: "My father is not sick, I am the one who is sick. But it is true if my father needs to see a doctor. But if he doesn't go... Lovesickness, how can I treat it?"

"Qiqi 49 acacia seeds are ground into powder, decocted and taken, the medicine will surely cure the disease."

Gu Huaishu also gave Shen Yang a prescription as a joke.

Although Shen Qu was young, he was very knowledgeable. When he heard this prescription, he almost laughed out loud: "Madam is a wonderful person. She died, but did she recover after the medicine?"

Lovesickness, lovesickness.

This is the prescription that Gu Huaishu prescribed to Miss Ye's family back then, but it's a pity that she died before she took the medicine.It was also strange, saying that the government did not find anything in the end, it seems that Ye Fanghua went out by himself and cut his throat with a golden hairpin to commit suicide...

That's how Gu Huaixiu thought.

As she walked, she said to Shen Qu: "You are still young, don't imitate your father's promiscuous virtues, it will do no good at all."

"Madam, have you heard a word?"

Shen Qu did not agree with Gu Huaixiu's statement, he saw Gu Huaixiu turned his head to look at him, and said: "Love is the hardest to last, so a lover will end up as a lover; nature has its own nature, so a willful person will not lose his nature. "

"You also study Mingxue, study Xiaochuang?"

Gu Huaixiu heard that this sentence was written by Chen Jiru, and Zhang Tingyu also liked this book very much, saying that every sentence is full of taste after careful consideration, no less than "Rong Zhai Essays".

Shen Qu heard that she used the word "also", and asked, "Who else likes it?"

"Your future husband will also like it." Gu Huaishu laughed, but said, "Do you mean that your father is a lover and a willful person? That's right...he is casual enough."

Wherever you want to do it, have you ever thought about the feelings of others?

but……

It doesn't necessarily mean that he is wrong, it's just that he makes people uncomfortable.

People stand on their own standpoints, and naturally have different feelings.

Gu Huaishu was too lazy to argue with Shen Qu, Shen Qi's son naturally turned to Shen Qi, she deserved to be choked back when she spoke ill of him in front of his son.

People on both sides left the peach forest and crossed the short bridge. Gu Huaishu immediately saw Shen Qi who was frowning and talking to Zhong Heng in front of him.

Naturally, Shen Qi also saw them, and when he caught a glimpse of Gu Huaishu walking with Ge Er, his expression finally changed.

The brows that were originally tightened loosened, but the eyes were very cold.

"Where did you take my brother?"

Shen Qu came forward and said: "Just now I went to feed the parrot starling, father and Mr. Zhong are..."

Zhong Heng glanced vaguely at Gu Huaishu who was standing on the bridge, and then squinted at Shen Qi.

After hearing what Querge said, Shen Qi felt that it was better for Gu Huaishu to not know about Gu Huaixiu, and was about to let him go, but Gu Huaishu gave him a cold look, and went back to the bridge, He took the maid and left from the other side.

He held back all the words, but Shen Qi couldn't hold back, and even laughed angrily.

"Don't even give anyone a chance to speak, look at her temper now!"

How could Zhang Tingyu bear this kind of woman?

How good it is to get her off soon!
Shen Qi squeezed the fan extremely hard, he was speechless for a while, and could only rub the center of his eyebrows.

Shen Qu looked at his father's headache, but he was very playful: "Father, just now I told Mrs. Zhang Er that you have someone in your heart. She said that you were sick, and asked her son to take you to the doctor... I said You are not sick, but I am sick. I said you are lovesick, and then Mrs. Zhang gave you a prescription, would you like to hear it?"

Shen Qi didn't even react, he just looked at Shen Qu, his eyes flickered, and finally asked: "Which prescription?"

Zhong Heng was also taken aback, Mrs. Zhang can also cure lovesickness?

How to cure this lovesickness?
Of course there is another way, Shen said: "Madam said, 49 acacia seeds, ground into powder, decocted and taken, the medicine will cure the disease!"

After finishing speaking, Shen Qu finally couldn't hold back his face and laughed.

Shen Chao's face was livid, he slapped him on the head, and said: "Follow that woman to make arrangements for your father! Do you have an elbow like yours? Stay away from that stinky woman, it will only bring my son down!"

"I think Ma'am is quite right. Your problem should be cured. Where do you get so many married women to sleep with?" There was no outsider here, and Shen Qu was bold enough to speak, so he only teased Shen Chao, "I'm afraid Still can't sleep."

After speaking, he coughed slightly, but turned around and slipped away.

Shen Qi was so angry that he didn't hit one place, he thought to himself that these two girls can really help him!

What can't sleep?That's because the master respects her and doesn't want to rape her. The melons that are forced are not sweet!

"Brat... just learn from me with these bad habits!"

"I didn't know who praised my brother to settle accounts clearly. Today, you have changed your mind and said that women are fickle. You..."

Zhong Heng stopped while talking, only feeling a little cold on the back of his neck.

Shen Qi looked at him, and said with a half-smile: "Zhong Heng, I feel that you didn't settle your accounts well yesterday, and I don't remember what it was. You should do the calculation again. I feel uncomfortable all over now. I'm tired of you, and I'll get my father to ask someone to move the hard-earned money to you tomorrow. Don't thank me, as long as I know it in my heart."
