Chapter 399
The next morning, after breakfast, Shen Ze still had to go out for a walk. After leisurely seeing him off, he turned back and muttered to the servant girls, "I don't know if sister Xi is sleeping well there? The girl, like her brother, is always picky about food. She didn't move her chopsticks very much during the dinner last night, and she didn't know what to eat at night? "
Su he said with a smile, "I heard that the owners of the second room all like to eat meat. Besides, there is no warm room at that end. The fresh vegetables at home must not be as many as ours. I can see that I just picked several baskets of fresh vegetables and some bean sprouts on the other side of the greenhouse today. Grandma might as well have someone send them to me. "
Leisurely nodded and said, "well, I'll leave it to you. You can pick out some Xi's favorite food and put some on it. In addition, you can pick out a box of the small things that my sister-in-law brought yesterday and take them to Xiang's sister. I'll leave them for her to play with."
When Su he got to the second room, the second wife said with a smile, "your eldest girl has just stayed here for one night, and your master is worried?"
Su he saluted with a smile, stood up and said, "the second wife is joking. Our grandmother said that as long as the wife doesn't feel noisy, she will stay with the big girl for as long as she is willing to. She doesn't worry any more. My grandmother saw that several vegetables collected in the greenhouse this morning were very fresh. She thought that there might not be any fresh vegetables at home yesterday, so she asked me to send some
At this time, fresh vegetables are hard to find. Even in large families, not every family can build a warm house. Although Er Fang is still rich, he still dares not open up to eat such fresh vegetables at this time. So the second wife was very happy to see Su he bring these things. She said with a smile, "it's your grandmother who is careful. Although she has prepared some at home, she still has to prepare them for the first month, so she dare not eat them openly. With these, at least at noon can be happy to add a few dishes Then let people put things in the kitchen.
Seeing that Shen Xi wasn't here, Su he took out a box with a smile and said, "this is what our grandmother gave Miss Xiang. It's just some small things from the south. Our grandmother said let the girl keep them for people to enjoy."
The servant girl took the box and handed it to the second wife. The second wife opened the box and looked at it. She saw that there were rings, earrings, pendants and other small objects in it. There were pearls, agates and other shapes. They were all scattered beads. Although they were good in quality, they were not big. It was better to make them exquisite. It was the most suitable way for young girls to take them away.
The second wife picked up an agate ring and praised, "the craftsmanship in the south is exquisite." As soon as the voice fell, I heard the maid's greeting outside the door. Then the curtain was opened and Mrs. Zhou led the girl in.
Seeing them coming, the second wife quietly put Dingxi back into the box, covered the box and handed it to the servant girl. She said, "go and send it to Xiang'er."
Su he said with a smile, "as it happens, I'll go and greet the girls."
The second wife joked, "I know I don't want to worry about you girls. Go and have a look."
Seeing Su he left, Mrs. Zhou asked, "isn't this the servant girl of commander Shen's family? Why are you here again? "
The second wife said with a smile, "my niece and daughter-in-law asked her to send some things. Are you busy? Why do you have time to come here at this time? "
Mrs. Zhou stabbed her daughter secretly, motioned to her to say two words. Zhou Kezhen just did not know. Angry Mrs. Zhou secretly gritted her teeth. But she said with a forced smile, "isn't this Jane who wants to say hello to your aunt? So I have to come with me. It's just that the child is too shy. When he comes here, he's shy again. "
After living here for such a long time, the second wife had already found out their temperament. After listening to her words, she murmured to herself that this sister-in-law really didn't know how to stop! And this niece, how about greeting yourself? Renkexin, no matter whether it's windy or rainy, comes every day before Chenshi. It's only this Kezhen. There's never such a rule in her eyes as "morning and evening decide the province". At the beginning, I just mentioned a few words, which aroused the complaints of my mother and daughter. Why bother? Anyway, I'm just a niece. Let's go! This time, Kezhen sat beside her sister-in-law in a low voice, and felt that she was a little pitiful. The child was delayed by her mother. After all, it's his own niece. Zhou couldn't help but feel soft hearted and said with a smile, "there's nothing to say between you and our old lady. Your sisters should be playing in Xiang's house. You can go too. The girl's family is more intimate when they talk together. "
Mrs. Zhou also said, "yes, your aunt is right. Let's go." Although Kezhen was a little reluctant, she thought that it would be better to go back to her room and see what they did for recreation.
Seeing her daughter's departure, Mrs. Zhou sat down for a while and said to the second wife with a smile, "I have something to discuss with my sister."
The second wife sneered in her heart. As expected, she had something to do. She picked up her tea cup and asked, "what's the matter?"
Mrs. Zhou salivated and said, "didn't the princess of Rongjun say yesterday that she was going to say goodbye to her brother? Why don't you tell her to him? "
As soon as the words fell, the second wife was not choked by the tea in her mouth. After coughing twice, she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and sneered, "you think it's beautiful! I advise you to live in peace and don't think about these untouchable things. What is the identity of the Fang family? They have both titles and real power, and they have fame and wealth when they are young. What's Jane got? Do you have family background or talent? Fortunately, there is no outsider in this room, or people will not laugh at this? "
Mrs. Zhou murmured, "why not? Doesn't the Fang family have to call you aunt? If you invite him to be a guest at home and find a way to let him and Jen see each other, won't it be possible... "
Before she finished speaking, she saw a teacup flying over her face. Mrs. Zhou quickly dodged. The teacup wiped her body, flew out and fell to the ground. Mrs. Zhou quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the tea stains on her clothes. The material of the clothes was made from her aunt last time. It was the first-class Sichuan brocade. She only wore it twice. I don't know if I can wash the tea?
She still has leisure to worry about her clothes. The second wife over there has long been angry with her words. The second wife pointed to her brother's daughter-in-law's nose and scolded, "don't take your mother's bad ways to teach our Zhou girls. How precious is the reputation of a girl's family? Don't you know that? Just like that. You've broken a good girl! "
Mrs. Zhou was very aggrieved. "I'm also doing it for my daughter's sake. Since my elder sister says that the Fang family is good, let Jane marry her. You'll have a bright face as an aunt."
The second wife sneered, "light? If you really want us to do what you want, I'm afraid our family will have no face to stay in the capital. "
The two people make such a big noise, naturally it is to disturb the outside servant girl, the master bicker, the servant girl dare not persuade, someone told the news to Shen Xiang.
