MTL - Vicious Male Partner is a Girl-Chapter 21 each have their own ghosts
Shen Jun wanted to test Shen Fengzhang's true thoughts, but couldn't find a good opportunity for a while. These days, Shen Fengzhang leaves early and returns late, and there is no one in sight.
Shen Fengzhang has been busy with the same thing for the past few days - trying to find a way to reconnect with the connections left by his father and grandfather. In the past few days, she has visited almost all the officials in the capital, and now only Xu Cishi, who is the most important official outside the country, and Yu Zhongcheng, who is in Beijing, are left.
Shen Fengzhang sat in the lobby of Yu Mansion, drinking tea while waiting for Yu Sizhong to come out. Standing in a corner, the maid of Yu Fu secretly glanced at Xiao Langjun who came to the door from the corner of her eyes. She only felt that she had an amazing complexion and a peaceful expression, like a clear stream in the mountains, which made people feel refreshed and happy.
In fact, Shen Fengzhang's heart is far from as calm and calm as she appears. I haven't contacted her in seven or eight years. When she came to the door these few days, she still remembered the friendship between her father and grandfather. There were not many of them. I don't know what will happen to Yu Sizhong.
While thinking, the sound of steady footsteps gradually became clear.
Shen Fengzhang hastily put down the teacup, stood up and saluted Yu Sizhong who came out of the side hall, "Master Yu."
Yu Sizhong was about forty years old, not tall, a little short and fat, but had a very gentle face, with a long flowing beard, he was a handsome man with a beard. At first glance, he seems to be a friend next door, amiable, but his shining eyes reveal his wit and scheming. How could it be possible for someone to be able to secure the position of Censor Zhongcheng as a simple person. After a face-to-face meeting, Shen Fengzhang had a plan in mind.
"No need to be too polite, get up quickly." Yu Sizhong seemed very approachable, he gave Shen Fengzhang a hand, stroked his long beard, and said with a smile: "You are the son of Jingyou, so you are also my junior, call me Shibo. "
At first Shen Fengzhang called Mr. Yu, with a little temptation. If the other party is still thinking about the friendship between his parents back then, he will naturally make her change her mind. Otherwise, after many years, if you rashly address him as an uncle, it may cause other people's displeasure.
After exploring Yu Sizhong's attitude, Shen Fengzhang followed the trend and changed his words, "Yu Shibo."
Yu Sizhong stroked his beard and smiled, turned around and sat down, "Nephew sit." He looked at Shen Fengzhang with a somewhat nostalgic look on his face, "I hugged you when my nephew was born, and many years have passed, and now my nephew is already a good-looking talent with a demeanor. Pianpian. My nephew looks quite like Jingyou. When I saw you, I remembered that Jingyou was very talented. He served as the prefect. Within three years, he made the people in the county live and work in peace and contentment. I often use this matter to teach now. Children and grandchildren. It's a pity—" He sighed softly and cut off the conversation.
Shen Fengzhang's expression was gentle, with some respect, "When my father was alive, he often mentioned Uncle Shi, saying that Uncle Shi was upright, quick-witted, and meticulous. Thanks to Uncle Shi's insightful eyes, he found out Li Huida's conspiracy heart of."
Yu Sizhong laughed loudly, "Jingyou really said that?" The discovery of Li Huida's intention to rebel was one of Yu Sizhong's proudest events in his life. He was still a civil servant of the sixth rank, and it was because of this that he entered the eyes of today's supreme. Prosperity.
"Jingyou still said that I was a blind cat and a dead mouse, but I didn't expect to comment on me like this behind my back." Yu Sizhong stroked his beard and laughed, feeling very happy.
Shen Fengzhang smiled. In fact, Shen's father not only thought that Yu Sizhong was a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse, but he also thought that Yu Sizhong was timid and overly cautious, so he hit him by mistake.
Yu Sizhong chatted with Shen Fengzhang for a few more words before asking Shen Fengzhang's purpose for coming today.
Shen Fengzhang took out a brocade box from his sleeve, handed it to the servant of the Yu family, and handed it to Yu Sizhong, "Recently, my nephew accidentally got a piece of Tian Huangshi, and I couldn't bear to bury it in my nephew's hands. I remembered that Shibo likes to collect chapter stones the most, so I came here for this A piece of Tianhuangshi is looking for an owner."
Before opening the box, Yu Sizhong knew that this piece of Tianhuang stone was absolutely good, but after actually seeing this piece of Tianhuang stone, he was still surprised, "This is the best Tianhuang jelly!" The color of Tianhuang stone in the box is pure yellow , glossy and lustrous, it is the best Tianhuang jelly among the best, which is hard to find.
Seeing this, Shen Fengzhang had a deep smile on his lips, "The BMW is a gift to the hero. This piece of Tianhuang Dong can be considered buried if it meets an owner like Shi Bo." this stone.
Yu Sizhong really couldn't put it down to this piece of Tianhuang Dong, and he played with it for a long time before putting down the stone.
Yu Sizhong has been in the ups and downs of his career for many years, and he knows exactly what Shen Fengzhang means. For so many years, there has been an endless stream of people who have come to give gifts, and Yu Sizhong is not willing to take over everything. He accepted the stone today to give Shen Fengzhang a chance for Jing You's sake. Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Yu Sizhong waited for Shen Fengzhang to say what he wanted, if it was a small favor, he wouldn't mind helping out.
Unexpectedly, Shen Fengzhang said: "My nephew took the liberty to come to the house today to find an owner for this field. Now that this matter is over, I will not bother Shibo anymore." After she finished speaking, she saluted and left.
Yu Sizhong's eyes flashed brightly, and he smiled and tried to persuade him to stay. However, Shen Fengzhang has made up his mind to go, seeing this, he smiled and ordered the housekeeper to send Shen Fengzhang out.
When the housekeeper who sent Shen Fengzhang away came back, he saw Yu Sizhong sitting in the hall, playing with Tian Huangdong in his hand, with a serious expression.
"Master, Mr. Shen has already been sent away." The housekeeper replied in a low voice.
Yu Sizhong pondered for a while, put down Tian Huangdong, stroked his beard, and suddenly laughed, with emotion in his smile, "Thick-skinned, generous, eloquent, and tactful in dealing with things, this son Jingyou has a bright future. Age It’s not big, no one has taught her, but she can be considered to be better than blue if she can do this.”
For so many years, it was rare for the butler to hear such a high evaluation of the younger generation from Yu Sizhong. He couldn't help but ask: "The Lord is planning to help Mr. Shen?"
The smile on Yu Sizhong's face faded away. He stroked his beard and shook his head, "No hurry." Since she didn't make a request today, it meant that she wasn't asking for a one-shot deal, but wanted to be with him, or even a poor family, for a long time. contacts. Shen Fengzhang has completely broken the relationship with the poor family these years, and now it is not so easy to reconnect with this relationship.
On the other side, Shen Fengzhang, who was sitting in the bullock cart, did not know that Yu Sizhong had such a high opinion of him. She felt that today's visit was not bad, and she deliberately reserved Yu Sizhong, the highest official, for the last visit, but she did not expect that Yu Sizhong and Shen's father had a really good relationship.
However, Shen Fengzhang did not fully pin his hope of becoming an official on these contacts that had been broken for many years.
She has already ordered someone to prepare a generous gift and send it to the Zhongzheng official who is in charge of talent selection.
Whether it is contacting poor families or bribing Zhongzheng, it will not be effective in the short term. Chung Cheng reviews every three years, and it has only been one and a half years since the last review.
Immediately before our eyes is the fact that the Shen family went to Qixuan Temple to offer incense.
…
In Songhe Hall, Shen Fengzhang hit the walnut with a small silver hammer, and with a click, the walnut shell shattered into pieces. She picked out the walnuts and put them on a simple and elegant white porcelain dish. Picking up the handkerchief on the side to wipe his fingers clean, Shen Fengzhang walked to Mrs. Shen with a porcelain plate, and asked in a gentle voice, "Why did grandma suddenly think of taking everyone to Qixuan Temple to offer incense?"
Eating the walnut kernels smashed by her grandson, the always serious Mrs. Shen's expression softened a little, "Your aunt went to the temple to clean up a few days ago, and she wrote to say that a guru who has come to Qixuan Temple these days , especially proficient in Buddhism. She specially asked the master to pray for us and chant scriptures, and hoped that we would all go to Qixuan Temple in person."
Mrs. Shen knew that her grandson had a very tense fight with Mrs. Zheng because of the previous incident. Although she didn't like that Shen Fengzhang had no opinion before and obeyed Zheng Shi in everything, she was not so vicious that she hoped that Zheng Shi and Shen Fengzhang would turn against each other. She glanced at Shen Fengzhang, and said slowly: "Your aunt especially told you to go, I hope the master can pray for you."
If Mrs. Shen hadn't added the last sentence, Shen Fengzhang might not have thought about it. Hearing Zheng's special instructions, Shen Fengzhang's eyes flashed, wondering if Zheng wanted to use this time to go to Qixuan Temple to offer incense to do something.
When the original owner was young, he and his family went to Qixuan Temple to offer incense and got lost. Could it be that Mrs. Zheng wanted to repeat the past and arouse her gratitude?
"Azhang? What are you thinking?"
Hearing Mrs. Shen's call, Shen Fengzhang recovered from his speculation. She smiled gently at Mrs. Shen, without revealing her thoughts at all, "It's nothing. I'm thinking that this time the whole government will go to offer incense, it's very good."
…
"It's really good."
Shen Xiangyao was also discussing this matter with her mother in the second room of the county mansion.
"What's the matter?!" Mrs. Shen looked about thirty, and Shen Xiangyao followed her, both of them were petite. In contrast, Mrs. Shen Er is plumper and her clothes are more mature.
At this moment, she was complaining dissatisfiedly: "The people in the first room know that there is nothing to do. This is especially true for Zheng Yulan!" Like her daughter, she was not happy getting along with the second room's sister-in-law.
Complaints are complaints. In this era when almost everyone believes in Buddhism, Mrs. Shen Er, a loyal Buddhist, still decided to go.
"A Yao, you and A Niang will go to Lao Lin's shop tomorrow to see if there is any—" Shen Xiangyao interrupted Mrs. Shen before finishing her sentence.
"Mother, I have something to do tomorrow."
"What's the matter with you?" Mrs. Shen Er was puzzled.
Shen Xiangyao avoided her mother's gaze, pursed her lips and said, "Anyway, I have something to do. Auntie, please give me some manpower, so I can work outside."
Mrs. Shen was suspicious, and only said that if Shen Xiangyao didn't make it clear, she would never help. After repeated pressing, Shen Xiangyao finally revealed her real purpose impatiently.
"Are you crazy?!" Hearing Shen Xiangyao's plan, Mrs. Shen Er couldn't help being surprised, "You want to take advantage of this incense offering to frame Shen Xiangpei for having an affair with someone in the temple! She has lost her reputation, but she will It hurts the entire Shen family, it hurts you! Do you still want to get married?!"
"Aniang!" Shen Xiangyao's eyebrows were frowned, full of impatience, "Fame is nothing." As long as Shen Juan is around, even if he is notorious, he can be rich and prosperous.
Shen Xiangyao tightened the ribbon on her skirt, "In short, I've already made up my mind." Shen Xiangpei must be ruined, only in this way can she **** Shen Xiangpei's noble, elegant, and distinguished husband from her previous life!
Mrs. Shen's face was ugly. She tried to dispel her daughter's thoughts, but no matter what she said, Shen Xiangyao remained indifferent and seemed extremely stubborn.
It was getting dark outside the house, and a maid wanted to come in to light the lamp, but was stopped by Mrs. Shen. There was a bit of anger in her voice, "You have such an idea today, how can I see your father!"
Although Mrs. Shen Er and her husband are not pure, kind and honest people, they still hope that their children will be pure and good-natured.
Shen Xiangyao, who had been facing each other in silence, suddenly burst into tears unexpectedly. It's not the usual pear blossoms with rain and beautiful crying, but real crying. Tears flowed continuously from between the fingers covering the face like a waterfall, and soon wet the skirt.
In the dim room, Shen Xiangyao described her collapse, her voice was hoarse like a cut string, and her throat seemed to be blocked by burning coals, "Mother! With her here, I will never have a bright future!"
In her previous life, when Mr. Xiao came to propose marriage to her, she was overjoyed. She regards Xiao Wulang as a wishful husband, loves and respects her, even if Xiao Wulang divorced after the Shen family was destroyed, she still doesn't blame him. However, it was not until a long time later that she realized that Shen Xiangpei was the only one she was thinking of for her fiancé who was regarded as a god!
She was just Xiao Wulang's second best choice after he couldn't marry Shen Xiangpei!
Hearing Shen Xiangyao's crying like a mountain avalanche, the Second Madam Shen was shocked, and her heart ached. Her daughter, who is so charming and doted on, actually has such a lot of pressure behind her back!
She couldn't bear it any longer, took her daughter into her arms, patted her on the back as she did when she was a child, and comforted her softly, "Don't cry, Ayao. Aniang will help you, help you."
Shen Xiangyao raised her red and swollen eyes, "Really?"
Second Madam Shen nodded, and whispered a few words in Shen Xiangyao's ear. After finishing speaking, she raised her head and straightened the tourmaline butterfly flower on her daughter's head, with a smile on her face, "Don't worry, follow A Niang's method, which will not only ruin Shen Xiangpei's reputation, but will not implicate you."
Shen Xiangyao nodded, and buried her head in her mother's arms, with a trace of satisfaction in her blocked almond eyes.
In this life, Shen Xiangpei will not even think about marrying into the Langya Wang family again!
A mere Xiao Wulang, how can he be as good as Wang Twelve Lang.
