MTL - Guide To the HE of the Former Female Supporting Role-Chapter 56
"My lady, Mr. Shen's family has sent someone to give gifts again."
Jingzhu was wrapping silk threads on the warm couch, when she looked up she saw Hongrui holding a picture scroll and a wooden box in her hands, she was no stranger to it, she didn't get up, she just waited for Hongrui to bring the gift to her face .
"What is it again this time? Painting?"
When Hongrui put the things on the couch, Jingzhu reached out to take the scroll, pulled it out of the brocade bag, unfolded it, and suddenly a picture of a beautiful woman lying on her side holding a fan came into view.
The painting skills are exquisite and lifelike, and Jing Zhu recognized the person in the painting as herself at a glance.
Hongrui also marveled at the side, "This painting must have been written by Shen Langjun. It's really good at drawing my wife."
Brushing her fingertips over the cloud-like buns of the people in the picture scroll, Jing Zhu pursed her lips, and a pair of apricot eyes sparkled with a smile.
Putting the picture scroll aside, Jingzhu immediately opened the square jade box, and saw a turquoise fish-shaped jade pendant inside, the jade was of high quality, the fish's eyes were made of a light red gemstone, and the fish's tail was raised. The carved scales are fine, which is a rare and extraordinary product.
Jingzhu held the jade pendant in her hand and played with it carefully, looked at it twice, and thought that the jade pendant should be a pair.
Putting the jade pendant back into the box, Jingzhu discovered that there was a piece of flower paper under the box, and opened it, and the cursive script written in black and white, "I don't see you in a day, it's like three autumns."
"Debauchery." Jingzhu's cheeks were flushed, and she muttered, but she folded the flower paper carefully in her hand, for fear of making a little wrinkle.
Seeing this, Hongrui snickered secretly, her wife learned duplicity at some point.
Putting away the painting scroll, Jingzhu instructs Hongrui to put the painting scroll in the painting vase so that it can be put away, and then stares in a daze at a dark blue purse that has been embroidered in the embroidery basket by her hand.
He has given her so many things, but she has never given him a gift, Jingzhu bit her lip, struggled for a long time, and finally called Hongrui to give the embroidered purse out.
Ping An didn't know how many times he was sent by his master to Jingfu to give gifts, but every time he went back, he returned empty-handed. If you don't come out, you're somewhat disappointed!
But his lord had asked him not to talk nonsense, so Ping An didn't say much except for the regular gift delivery, but every time after giving the gift, he would stop for a while in front of the Jingfu gate, looking forward to the lady inside, His family's lord has a sharp heart, and if he can find out with his conscience as soon as possible, he will give back even a little bit of his lord's heart.
I never thought that Ping An would be waiting for him today. He was about to go away, but the chubby-looking maid rushed out in a hurry and called him back.
"Wait a minute, my wife has something for you sir!" Hongrui trotted to the door with a brocade bag in one hand and a skirt in the other, and stopped to take a breath when she saw it was safe. Not gone yet.
Just as Ping An rode the horse, at this moment he also pulled the rope hastily, raised the horse's head high, neighed, and the horse's hooves stomped heavily on the ground, with a stern look and a high-spirited posture, staring at Hongrui for a moment. stunned.
Unexpectedly, this person's equestrian skills are quite good, thinking in this way, Ping An has already arrived in front of Hongrui in an instant, looked expectantly at Hongrui's hand, and said expectantly: "This is what your wife gave to my family. Is it something from your lord?"
Hongrui nodded, then handed the things to him and said, "Hold it carefully, don't drop it."
"Well, I know, then I'll go first!" Ping An hung the things on his waist, then got on the horse, and rode away.
After a while, he returned to Shen's residence, and as soon as he entered the gate of the residence, he went straight to Shuhe courtyard.
Shen Qinghe lives in Shuhe Courtyard, this courtyard is different from the other courtyards, most of the courtyards of other gentlemen are plums, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums, elegant ornamental plants.
It happened that in the yard of their husband, peonies, peonies, climbing vines and roses, things that attract bees and butterflies, when I came in, I thought I had entered some girl's yard. The eyes were colorful, and the tip of the nose was full of sultry fragrance. Thanks to their lord's determination, they were not led astray by these flowers and plants.
When Ping An arrived at the study in the main courtyard, Shen Qinghe was playing chess with someone.
Shen Qinghe was playing black chess, and the white chess was a man wearing a black headdress and a white long-sleeved robe. The opponent looked Zhou Zheng, with a bookish air, chatting and laughing with Shen Qinghe.
Ping An's impatient pace slowed down, and he saluted respectfully, "Mr., Mr. Du's family."
"It's Ping'an!" Du Shengze turned his head slightly, and said casually after seeing Ping'an, "Your lord sent you out to support him again?"
Du Shengze was originally a white man. When he was young, he was recommended by Shen Qinghe to work in Shen's family firm. He was resourceful and had his own unique vision and sense of smell in business. Now he has grown into Shen Qinghe's indispensable right-hand man.
Knowing that the other party was joking, Ping An was not rude, he just said: "Mr. Shen's family is serious, it's not a matter of riding on the saddle, what you do is a slave's job."
Du Shengze smiled and didn't speak. The people around Shen Qinghe were disciplined very well by him. Ping An seemed unreliable, but in fact he had a delicate mind and was extremely protective of the Lord.
At this time, on the chessboard, black and white pieces were fighting, and the winner was only a few steps away. Shen Qinghe casually put down a black piece and looked at Ping An, "Is the thing delivered? If you have nothing to do, go down!"
Ping An hurriedly presented the things pinned to his waist with both hands: "Mr. Lang, Mrs. Jing returned the gift to Mr. Lang."
Du Shengze thought for a while and put down a white chess piece, only heard Ping An's words in his ears, and then the black stone in Shen Qinghe's hand was placed in an unexpected place.
Du Shengze was stunned for a moment, then put the twister in his hand back into the chess basket, and said with a helpless smile: "Brother Shen is too merciless."
After finishing speaking, he stood up from the couch, straightened his sleeves, and said with a look of seeing through and not telling, "Forget it, since the winner has been decided, the firm still has important matters waiting for me to go back to deal with, then I will go back and deal with it first." left."
Shen Qinghe also got up, nodded slightly at the person and then signaled to Pingan with his eyes: "Ping An, send Brother Du out."
Accepting the order safely, he did not forget to place the brocade bag in his hand on the couch, and immediately called Du Shengze out from the main entrance.
After the person left, Shen Qinghe took the brocade bag, opened it curiously, and saw a dark blue sachet inside.
He took out the sachet, held it in the palm of his hand, and played with it carefully. The sachet was exquisitely embroidered, using the finest satin, embroidered with white plum patterns, and there was a long blue tassel hanging from the tail.
Shen Qinghe held it for a while and felt a faint scent, so he picked up the sachet and put it on the tip of his nose. The scent came out from the sachet, and...
Shen Qinghe's eyes lit up, and he took another deep sniff, this time he was sure, the fragrance on this sachet was exactly the same as the fragrance on his little lady's body.
For some reason, Shen Qinghe stared at the seal of the sachet and thought for a while, then opened the sachet, and saw a folded piece of pink flower paper inside.
As soon as it was opened, there was a beautiful hairpin flower in lower script, "My heart is like the king's heart."
Shen Qinghe stared at the paper for a while, the smile on his lips deepened, and after a long time, he hung the dark blue purse on his waist properly, and carefully smoothed the silk thread of each tassel.
After Ping An sent the man back, the first thing his lord said to him was, "You are rewarded with the new red horse from the racecourse!"
Pingan was overjoyed: "?!"
*
It was mid-spring, and the most talked-about gossip on the streets was the marriage of the rich merchants Shen and Jing. After Najib asked about the recruitment process, the two marriages were quickly settled. Come down, the wedding is only four months away, and the speed is astonishing.
The third lady of the Jing family was still saying by the people in Xiangliu that it was difficult to choose a son-in-law to marry. Who would have thought that the marriage would be settled just after the wedding ceremony, and her fiancé was still well-known in the Xiangliu Chamber of Commerce. The big man, I don't know how much envy Xiangliu is still waiting for the ladies in his boudoir.
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of August, and once the rainy season was over, Zhizhi was chattering and screaming on the top of the tree. The maids and servants in the courtyard of Jingfu all held net bags tied with long sticks, stretched the nets and perched on the tree trunk. cicadas.
Jing Zhu didn't know if she was envious of others, but she only knew that it was a pain to be wrapped in three layers of wedding dress in this scorching heat.
The wedding was held at night, and after noon, Jingzhu was dressed up in an orderly manner by the people around her. The woman who came to twist the noodles took a long and thin cotton thread and pulled it up and down, left and right on Jingzhu's face. She shaves the hair from her forehead and temples.
This process was uncomfortable, even tingling, but fortunately, Jingzhu's skin was delicate, her hairline was clear, and she had almost no hairs.
The mother-in-law who twisted the noodles only played a couple of times before taking up the thread, and praised Jing Zhu's beauty repeatedly. Mrs. Jing, who had been helping Jing Zhu to dress up all the time, was coaxed into a smile, which made the woman displeased. Less rewards.
When she was fully dressed, Jing Zhu looked at herself in the bronze mirror. The sapphire blue and green crown, the wedding dress with a green background and blue border, the carefully drawn eyebrows and eyes, and the red lips painted with bright red lipstick, everything looked beautiful. It's so delicate and perfect, but it still can't hide the worry between her brows.
Is her choice right? She couldn't help asking herself, the person in the mirror couldn't give her the answer, the answer could only be found by herself.
Seeing her daughter dressed up, Mrs. Jing already shed tears on her clothes, and quickly wiped them away with a handkerchief. Today is her daughter's big day, so don't shed tears!
Seeing Mrs. Jing's eyes flushed, Jing Zhu couldn't help crying, but Mrs. Jing held her hand and said, "Don't cry, it's unlucky, even if you cry, you have to laugh and cry. ?"
Jing Zhu nodded, suppressed the tears in her eyes, and then called Madam Jing to Madam Jing.
Mrs. Jing agreed with a lot of emotion, and then pulled Jing Zhu to start talking about herself, and after talking for a while, she took a booklet from the side and handed it to Jing Zhu for her to read.
Jing Zhu opened the brochure curiously and glanced at it, her face flushed immediately, "Mother!"
With a cry in a hurry, Jingzhu covered the booklet and refused to read it again.
Mrs. Jing shook her head with a smile and said: "Mother knows you are shy, but mother is someone who has experienced it. You will learn more after reading this booklet, and you will suffer less. There are also some postures that are conducive to childbearing..."
"Okay mother, I understand, can you stop talking?" Jing Zhu was really ashamed, she turned her head and refused to listen.
Mrs. Jing smiled helplessly, and didn't mention the matter of avoiding the fire anymore. Her Zhu'er is still too young. How can she rest assured that she is going to marry so early? Fortunately, the marriage is not far away. Going home, you can come back at any time, and you won't have to endure the pain of mother and daughter being separated from each other all year round.
The sun went down quickly, red wedding silk was hung everywhere in the mansion, and the wedding party was already waiting at the door.
Holding a peacock-feather fan, Jingzhu was helped by the maid to the main hall where the banquet was held, where she knelt down and kowtowed goodbye to her parents. Mrs. Jing held back her tears, and even Jing's father, who was always serious, turned his eyes slightly away.
After bidding farewell to her parents, Jingzhu was carried out of the house by her second elder brother, and personally delivered the bridal sedan chair to welcome her.
The sound of gongs and drums played joy, and the crackling of firecrackers was lively and festive.
Shen Qinghe is also wearing a lake green wedding dress today, wearing a black crown hat, with a proud and handsome demeanor.
He was riding on a tall brown horse, and when the sound of the happy cannon sounded, he saw the woman he was thinking of came out with Jing Jia Erlang on her back.
She seemed to have seen him too, and even mischievously picked up the fan to deliberately block his gaze, preventing him from glancing at the slightest bit.
Shen Qinghe secretly clenched his horsewhip, his eyes were dark, he won't let him see it now, but he can always see it clearly at night.
Welcoming the bride, stepping over the brazier, Jingzhu was still a little nervous when she arrived at Shen's mansion, almost something went wrong when she stepped over the brazier, she relied on the people around her to support her firmly, and the warm palms gave her strength to hold her steady At the same time as the body, the heart that has been tense has gradually settled down.
After three prostrations, she was sent to the bridal chamber, and Jing Zhu officially changed from Jing's daughter to Shen's wife.
Shen Qinghe followed her to the bridal chamber, but it was not the time to rest, he had to go out to entertain guests, so he came in at this time to have a drink with her.
Jing Zhu was sitting by the bed, still holding the feather fan in her hand, and when she lowered her head slightly, she felt the person approaching her, and then a hand with well-articulated bones grasped the upper half of her fan handle, and took it away with a little strength Taking off her lupine, Jing Zhu also raised her head.
What came into view was that person's face with a slight smile, dressed in a gorgeous attire, with a thin waist and long legs, he looked even more beautiful than the bride,
Jingzhu looked away shyly, and in the next moment, she heard gasps of surprise and a little smile. After hearing the sound, she looked over and found that their room door and window were crowded with people, big and small. All of them looked happy, and some were calling her little sister-in-law in a low voice.
Seeing her looking over, Shen Qinghe also glanced at Wen Sheng and explained: "They are all relatives, and they are clamoring to see you."
Naturally, Jingzhu also knew about this, making trouble in the bridal chamber! She smiled softly and didn't speak, then she gave Hongrui a look and asked her to distribute the wedding silver and wedding cakes that she had prepared long ago, which was regarded as a gift for her as a bride.
After dismissing the relatives, what was left was the Hebei wine. Shen Qinghe asked someone to bring up the wine utensils. The two sat on both sides of the bed, stretched their arms and crossed their wrists, and drank the Hebei wine together.
Jingzhu was overwhelmed with alcohol, and after drinking a glass of wine, her cheeks turned red, and she looked at Shen Qinghe how well-behaved she was.
Seeing Shen Qinghe so much that he wanted to stay and go to bed directly instead of going out to entertain guests, he couldn't hold back in the end, he put his arms around him and made some intimacy before he lifted up his robe and said: "Madam, wait a minute, I'll go back when I go."
Then he ordered the maid in the house to say: "Come here, serve your wife to eat and wash."
Hongrui was originally Jing Zhu's personal servant girl, and she brought several dowries this time, but Jing Zhu trusted her the most.
Because the clothes are cumbersome and inconvenient to go to the toilet, Jingzhu hasn't eaten much since noon. At this time, her hungry chest is pressed against her back, and before she can order Hongrui to let her servants prepare meals, there are already maids holding them. All kinds of delicacies come into the room.
After Hongrui asked, she realized that Lang Jun had already prepared it. Jing Zhu moved her index finger when she smelled the fragrance, and hurriedly asked someone to remove the heavy headdress for her, sat down at the table, and ate dinner.
Jingzhu was very hungry, so she ate a lot, and the food was delicious and to her liking, so she couldn't help being greedy.
It was Hongrui who couldn't see it and tried to dissuade her, and vaguely mentioned the Dongfang matter later, so Jingzhu stopped her chopsticks in embarrassment.
As soon as the chopsticks were put down, the bead curtain in the inner room was lifted, and the sound of unhurried footsteps accompanied by a deep and pleasant voice sounded in the room.
"It's okay, you can eat as much as you want, and when you're full, I'll take you out for a walk."
Shen Qinghe walked to the table, and then sat down next to Jing Zhu, Jing Zhu was still a little uncomfortable, but he was not at all, and his attitude towards her was already very intimate.
"Why do you look thinner?" Shen Qinghe stared at the person carefully for a while and frowned, then filled a bowl of soup for him and put it next to her, "Drink another bowl of soup."
This soup is delicious, Jingzhu had already drank a bowl just now, and now she couldn't drink it anymore, so she said, "I've already drank it and I can't drink it anymore."
After Jingzhu finished speaking, she thought of her mother's words. After getting married, she should always obey the husband's wishes, so as not to make him angry. She immediately regretted rejecting his kindness. He won't be angry, right?
Jingzhu carefully raised her head and bumped into the star-like eyes of the person beside her. He showed no sign of anger, but smiled and held her hand and said, "Then I won't drink."
Jing Zhu withdrew her eyes and lowered her eyes, pursed her lips and did not speak.
Shen Qinghe stared at her side face, his eyes flickered slightly, then he raised his head to look at the servants in the room and said: "Take these away, all down."
In Shen Qinghe's courtyard, he always said what he said. The servants who served him quickly packed up and left the house. Even Hongrui followed Jingzhu's signal, and there were only the two of them left in the house.
Chasing away all the servants, Jingzhu thought that Shen Qinghe had something to say, but unexpectedly, as soon as the maids left, she was hugged from her seat into her arms.
"Husband!" Jing Zhu grabbed Shen Qinghe's lapel in a panic, and was so frightened by his sudden movement that she blurted out the title.
Shen Qinghe paused, looked down at her, "What are you calling me?"
"Husband... Husband." What's the matter, is there something wrong? Jingzhu looked at him with confused eyes.
Shen Qinghe pursed his lips, put his big hand around her slender waist, and played with her weak and boneless little hand with one hand, and said, "Since you know that I am your husband, why are you so unfamiliar with me tonight?"
Jing Zhu pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer, completely unaware that the panic and uneasiness on her face was already evident.
Shen Qinghe sighed in his heart, stopped teasing her, and said in a serious voice: "Since you married me, this will be your home from now on, and I will be your husband, what do you have to talk to me about?" That is to say, there is no need to have any scruples, no matter what happens, I will love you, love you, protect you, and give you peace and joy."
"Just this one, don't be afraid of me, okay?" Shen Qinghe sighed against the man's forehead.
Jingzhu didn't expect that he would say these words to herself. When she was still hesitating about her future life, he had already seen through her fragile self and made a solemn promise.
It is impossible not to feel something in my heart, Jingzhu admitted that she was moved.
Looking at the handsome face in front of her, she couldn't help stretching out her fingertips to caress him, and couldn't help laughing when he was leaning against him, and then she fell softly on his shoulder, her eyelashes drooping, and gently " Hmm" sounded.
If you give me peace and joy, I will be with you forever.
