Rebirth of a wishful life

Chapter 120

"This play is really well sung. Is this character Little Hongying?" A woman approached Mrs. Shen and asked, and Mrs. Shen nodded with a smile: "Yeah, originally this team was not easy to invite." , said that it has already been scheduled for next month, our old lady really likes the drama of this troupe, especially this little Hongying, so ah, our Lord Hou specially spent a lot of money to let this little Hongying join After the play is over, Little Hongying has to go to someone else's house."

"Really? Master Hou is really filial? Speaking of which, this little red warbler sings beautifully..." The woman chattered and chattered with Madam Shen, saying that she was thirsty, so she reached out her hand to greet the servant girl and let her sing. The maid poured her tea.

The little maid was probably fascinated by listening to the opera, while pouring tea, she also raised her head to look at the stage, she knocked over the teacup in a daze, and the tea in it was splashed on the woman's skirt.

The skirt was originally lotus root pink, but when the tea was poured on it, a yellow stain appeared, which was very ugly.

"Ah, ma'am, please forgive me!" Although the maid was young, she was quite sensible, she quickly knelt down to wipe Madam Gao's skirt, and apologized in a low voice, but Madam Shen was sitting beside her, so she saw it at a glance.

Mrs. Shen hurriedly got up: "Oh, Mrs. Gao, I'm really sorry, this maid! You are really careless! This is a bad thing, is this skirt a new model this year? It just so happened that I made a few new skirts a while ago. Madam, put on mine first?"

Mrs. Gao is from the north, she looks a bit tall, and Mrs. Shen is an authentic southerner, she is a bit petite. Mrs. Gao looked at Mrs. Shen's height angrily, pursed her lips and did not say what was in her heart.She just shook her head with a sullen face: "It's okay, I have a change of skirt with me, just let someone get it and I can change it."

It just so happened that the play had come to an end, and when Little Hongying stopped singing, the play came to an end.While Madam Shen ordered people to reward the troupe, she asked Mrs. Shen Er and Mrs. Shen Third to take the guests back to the main hall first.I was planning to accompany Madam Gao to change clothes. Madam Gao waved her hand, and since she had already made a statement, she followed through with her attitude: "Mrs. Shen doesn't need to accompany me, just let a maid guide me. Hurry up! Go and accompany Mrs. Song and the others."

"What an embarrassment, after all, the servant girl in my house did something wrong..."

"It's really okay. This maid looks young, so don't be too angry. Just say a few words later. I'll change my clothes by myself. I really don't need you to accompany me."

"Madam Gao is a guest, this matter..."

"Mrs. Shen, no matter how polite you are, I'll think you don't consider me a friend." Mrs. Gao said with a smile, and Mrs. Shen nodded: "That's all right, I'll neglect Mrs. Gao today. You go and change."

Let the maid lead Madam Gao away, and Madam Shen followed to the main hall.Seeing that the time was almost up, he ordered someone to bring over the dumplings carried in the kitchen.

People who come to the birthday banquet have lunch and after watching the show, there is an extra meal, which is not a serious meal. Some people have a bowl of soup, some people have a bowl of noodles, and some people have a bowl of noodles. Dumplings, in short, are a simple bowl of rice. After this bowl is eaten, the whole birthday banquet is over. The big guys can spread out. Those who want to go home can go home, and those who don’t want to go home also have to go home Home.

Of course, relatives who came from afar had to stay, for example, the second bedroom's natal family.

While eating, Mrs. Shen smiled and said to Mrs. Shen Er, "My in-laws came from afar. I thought, you haven't been intimate with your natal family for a few years. This time, you must stay with your in-laws for a longer stay. For a while, as for the residence, I think Haitang Garden is pretty good, what do you think?"

Haitang Garden is a big yard, very close to the yard of the second bedroom, almost next to each other.Mrs. Shen Er smiled and nodded: "Very good, thank you sister-in-law."

"Our family, why don't we say thank you?" Mrs. Shen waved her hand indifferently: "As for your nephew, you should live with Mingrui and the others first. If there is a shortage of manpower on your side, just tell Nanny Song, Nanny Song will arrange it for you, and our family will bear all the expenses, so you can let your in-laws live in peace of mind, and don't worry about anything."

Since Mrs. Shen finished her studies and became a teacher, Nanny Song's duty was not only to teach Mrs. Shen how to behave, but also became the nanny in charge of the inner courtyard.Now all the maids and women in the inner courtyard are under the care of Nanny Song.

Nanny Chen is as unambitious as ever. In her opinion, protecting Madam is the most important thing.However, now that there is a young master in the mansion, the most important thing is to protect the young master!There are not many people Madam Shen can trust, and Madam Chen is definitely the most trustworthy one. Madam Shen is also very happy to let Nanny Chen take care of her youngest son.

Thus, Nanny Chen became the nanny in charge of Minghe's yard.

Second Madam Shen just smiled and nodded, no matter what Madam Shen said, she didn't object.Concubine Lu looked at the two sisters-in-law talking, and turned to look at the old lady with a smile: "The old lady is really blessed. The daughters-in-law are very filial and get along very well. From now on, the old lady will just enjoy the blessings." Bar."

The old lady swallowed the dumplings in her mouth, smiled and nodded, but did not answer.Mrs. Song next to her smiled and said: "The old lady is indeed a blessed person. Not only are her daughter-in-laws filial, but her sons are also very filial. I see today that these grandsons are promising, granddaughters are blessed, and my children and grandchildren are very filial. If they are all so promising, I am afraid I will wake up laughing from my dream."

The old lady didn't like to hear this, because it sounded like admonishment, as if she was telling her to cherish blessings, make future generations of children and grandchildren, and be considerate of daughter-in-law, so many things that old people can't even hope for. It's time to regret it.

It's just that Mrs. Song said these words, and the old lady couldn't show her face too much, so she had to pretend to laugh twice.

Everyone was holding bowls, eating dumplings and gossiping. The atmosphere in the room was just right, and a woman rushed in from outside: "You can't eat dumplings, they are poisonous inside!"

The ladies in the room were immediately stunned, and some of them let go of their hands, and the bowls fell down.Madam Shen's complexion changed, and she stood up suddenly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Whose family servant are you? Who told you to say such things!"

"This old slave belongs to Mrs. Gao's house. She is the nanny in charge of our wife. This old slave is not talking nonsense. I have evidence!" The nanny was confident, and a woman shouted in surprise: " Nanny Han, what's going on? What do you mean by what you just said?"

"This old slave is here for this matter, ma'am, the Shen family's dumplings are not edible, they are all poisonous!" The nanny seemed to have found the backbone, and rushed to Madam Gao's side, pulling people up and down Then he looked carefully: "Madam, are you okay? Is there any discomfort? Does your head hurt, does your heart hurt? Do you feel dizzy? Do you feel like vomiting?"

Mrs. Gao was still a little confused: "What's going on here? I'm fine. Tell me first what's going on with the poisonous thing in this dumpling!" Just because you're fine now doesn't mean you're going home It's fine after that.

If Nanny Han misunderstood, she would have to apologize to the Shen family, but if Nanny Han hadn't misunderstood... Mrs. Gao knew her own nanny well enough to take her out, so she was not out of tune, at least It's not the kind of person who will say this and that at the slightest provocation.

At this moment, he broke in regardless of the rules, so it can be seen that he is quite sure about what he wants to say.

"Before Madam changed clothes, this old slave went out and told the servant girl to send the changed clothes to our own carriage." Nanny Han carefully looked at her wife's face, and saw that Madam did not turn blue or have lips. With a purple look, he took a breath, stepped forward to salute the people in the room, and then stood in the middle and said: "Although the old slave has been to the Hou's Mansion several times, the Hou's Mansion is too big. There are also many gardens, after I asked the servant girl to deliver the clothes, I went the wrong way when I came back alone, and I was about to find someone to ask the way, so I heard someone talking behind the rockery."

Saying that, Nanny Han coughed lightly, raised her head and said in a high voice, "Madam asked the kitchen to deliver the dumplings, are you sure the medicine has been put in?"

Then Nanny Han lowered her head, and when she spoke again, her voice was a little lower: "Of course, you can rest assured that I will not miss when I do things. The dumpling is a chronic medicine, which will not be visible right now. Wait until later." After three to five days, people will have a fever, just like a cold, and no doctor can detect it.”

"Really so powerful?"

"That's right, I heard Madam say that this medicine was specially bought at a high price, and it's not available in the capital."

Nanny Han changed her voice once she said a word, and brought the conspiracy of the two people to life, so that people can tell that one of the two is a little maid and the other is a mother-in-law.Everyone in the room changed their faces following the words.

Especially the old lady and Mrs. Shen, as well as Mrs. Shen Er and Mrs. Shen San.If you don't explain this matter clearly today, you will offend all the noble ladies in the capital. Will anyone dare to come to their Shen family's banquet in the future?

The old lady was annoyed by the publicity of her family's ugliness, and thinking about today's incident, it might be an opportunity to trip Mrs. Shen, so even if she doesn't need the second family, she can control the Hou's mansion and kill the old family. .It also saves me from having to pay such a big price, and it should be too late to arrange it now.

Mrs. Shen was shocked and angry. She was thinking of changing her image in the heart of the ladies of the capital for the sake of her children, but she never expected that this was the first time she appeared in the circle of ladies of the capital, and she would encounter such a thing!
She had always thought that her housekeeper was well managed, not to mention that there were no loopholes at all, but it would not cause too much trouble, but today this incident gave her a big slap in the face.

After such a thing happened, who would dare to make good friends with their family in the future?Who would dare to come to propose marriage to Ruyi in the future?Well, even if Ruyi is already engaged, the imperial decree of marriage has not come down yet.If this matter spreads to the palace today, will Ruyi be able to marry the sixth prince smoothly?
The servants in the family poisoned the masters!Even if this matter is found to have nothing to do with the long house, the impact on the long house is still very serious!But the housekeeper right is held in the hands of the long room!As Mrs. Shen, the housekeeper can manage the city like this. Who dares to expect Shen Ruyi to be a good housekeeper?No one knows, will Shen Ruyi, like Mrs. Shen, cause such things when she is the housekeeper in the future?
Furious and anxious, Mrs. Shen felt that she was going to be out of breath, black air began to appear in front of her eyes, but she couldn't faint, she had to find a way at this moment, find a way to turn the situation around, otherwise, Ruyi's life is ruined...

And Ming He, whose daughter would dare to marry into the Shen family in the future?

"Hurry up, get someone to invite the imperial physician!" Mrs. Shen clapped her hands vigorously, and said to Qing Mian beside her, "Take the post from the Hou's Mansion, and invite the imperial physician over. In addition, call Nanny Song, and send the whole mansion All the maids and wives are called over, no matter which room, room or class they are in, all of them are called over!"

After speaking, he turned to look at Nanny Han, although his face was a little pale, but his eyes had stabilized: "Nurse Han, right? Today's matter is too important, and it's not just a matter of my Shen family. Of all the wives, which one is not precious? So, I must investigate this matter today, Nanny Han, please take a closer look at my house later and find out the two The person who spoke. If it was from my house, I would definitely give everyone an explanation, but if it wasn't from my house..."

Mrs. Shen didn't finish her sentence, she glanced around everyone's faces, some were full of indignation and very upset, and immediately remembered, this is not any other place, this is the Hou's mansion, Lord Shen is not a good friend of.

If the matter was really caused by the Shen family themselves, then it's okay to say that the Shen family's family is ugly, and it's too late for them to try to bribe themselves to shut up.

But if it wasn't for the people from the Shen family...or if it was a farce caused by someone, or if Nanny Han was speaking plain words, this matter today would not be easy.

Madam Gao frowned, looking at Nanny Han standing in the middle, she was also very puzzled.What happened just now was so unexpected that I couldn't even imagine it. Who in the capital doesn't have a private backyard?Even if something happened at the birthday banquet, it wasn't just Shen Hou's family.

But like Shen Hou's Mansion, poisoning all the guests at the banquet, and making a fuss overheard, this is the first time, the first time in hundreds of years!I know my nanny is loyal, so the possibility of Nanny Han being bribed is ruled out.

Since Nanny Han didn't lie, did someone take advantage of Nanny Han, or did Nanny Han really bump into her accidentally?But shouldn't this kind of poisoning be discussed in secret?Who will go behind the rockery to discuss?

"Mother, I heard that something happened, but is it true?" Just when the atmosphere in the room was as freezing as ice, Shen Ruyi came in in a hurry. Beside Mrs. Shen: "What happened? Mother, are you okay?"

While talking, he glanced at the old lady, and asked by the way: "Is grandma okay? Are you all okay? What happened?"

Mrs. Shen touched her hair: "It's okay, it has nothing to do with you, you go and take care of those girls first."

"There's Yunrou here." Shen Ruyi won't leave Mrs. Shen right now. She has already told Aunt Wang that if Aunt Wang pointed Shen Yunrou, Shen Yunrou must be able to take good care of those ladies. It was Mrs. Shen who was worried.

She had discussed this matter with Lord Shen Hou, but she had not discussed it with Mrs. Shen.It's not that she doesn't trust Mrs. Shen, but she's afraid that Mrs. Shen won't want to.In Madam Shen's eyes, Shen Ruyi and Shen Minghe are the most important, and she will not agree to the slightest possibility of affecting the reputation of Shen Ruyi and Shen Minghe.

But the strong man cuts off his wrist, and the gecko abandons his tail, they all have to pay the price first.In order to completely prevent the old lady from being a demon again, other than killing the old lady, there is only one way left.

Even though Lord Shen hated the old lady, he would never agree to kill the old lady.At the age of the old lady, there are not many years to live, and Lord Shen is willing to raise such a person, and is willing to serve the old lady until she grows old.
