Yanmenchun

Chapter 38

Shentu Danlin came back from Tianjin Wei.

The two brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for half a year, and Shentu Danlin is much stronger than before, and has the air of an adult man.

He was dressed in black, with some silver patterns embroidered on the big sleeves, and he looked much more stable.

Shen Tuchan stepped forward and made a blessing salute and said with a smile: "Brother is well."

Shentu Danlin hummed lightly.

The old lady wanted to promote the relationship between the two brothers and sisters, so she smiled and said: "Girl Chan, your brother also brought you a lot of overseas jewelry, mother-of-pearl items, and imported fabrics!"

Shen Tuchan got up again and thanked: "Thank you brother for remembering me! Will you leave when brother comes back this time?"

When the old lady heard this, she put on a straight face and said: "Why are you going? Your third uncle helped your brother find a position as a supervisor in the military depot. This time, he will take up the post when he comes back."

For the young Shentu Danlin, the position of the military supervisor, the seventh rank, is very good, and the Zhenbei Houfu used to be a general, so it is not too far to do this now. It seems that the third uncle is Twelve points on the heart.

Shentuchan looked at Shentu Danlin with a smile, but saw his eyelashes drooping before looking at the old lady with a smile: "Don't worry, grandma, I will do it as soon as possible."

Do something as soon as possible without saying.

The old lady nodded in satisfaction.

The two siblings walked around the old lady and came out of Heshou Hall together.

Shentu Danlin walked in front, suddenly turned back with a smile and said: "I heard that my sister became famous at the banquet at the Princess Mansion, congratulations to my sister."

Shentu Danlin was born like a mother, with a handsome face and a kind look, a look that many people would like. At this time, he looked at Shentuchan with a smile, as if he was happy for this younger sister from the bottom of his heart.

Shen Tuchan nodded in embarrassment, and the two of them said goodbye and walked in different directions after not walking far.

Shentu Danlin stood at the intersection and watched his sister walk away, with a dignified back and gentle steps, he couldn't help but think of the time when his sister just came back from Mobei.

At that time, she was used to being free, walking fast, with a heroic posture in her actions, and she smiled as she wanted. The grandmother said that there was no such daughter in the capital city, and she could not be a different kind, and she could not lose the face of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, so she left the palace. Zhong invited the nunnery to come, and that nun beat her several times a day with a ruler, and sometimes she would walk with a limp when they met in Heshoutang.

It wasn't until Shentuchan's back was out of sight that Shentu Danlin looked away, and the servant beside him came up and whispered: "Master Hou, go back quickly, or else"

Shentu Danlin gave him a warning look, his eyes were cold and stern, the boy shrank his head and stopped talking, Shentu Danlin turned around and strode away.

During this time, Shen Tuchan's side was going well, Princess Tai'an was the host, and Princess He Baoqing was invited to play with her in the palace, but Fang's side had a major incident.

The third master, Shen Tuye, met a flower girl outside, and after a few days of meeting, he was going to bring her back to be his concubine. Fang disagreed, and only said that who knew that the women outside were not clean.

The third master has always been a real tempered person, so the dispute was put aside for the time being. Who knew that Fang Shi sent someone to find the woman while he was in the yamen. Fame, the woman is a widow, she has a family, and the old lady found out about it when the family members came to make trouble.

Shen Tuchan was originally preparing a gift for Princess Tai'an, but at this time such a big event happened, she had no choice but to put down what she was doing and go to see the old lady.

The old lady was sitting on the beauty couch by the window and scolding Fang Shi, while Fang Shi sat down and wiped away tears.

The maid went in to tell the eldest lady that she was here, Fang wiped her face hastily, and bid farewell to the old lady with a hoarse voice.

When Shen Tuchan entered the door, Fang Shi was coming out, and Shen Tuchan asked with concern after seeing this: "What's wrong with the third aunt?"

Fang dabbed her chin with a handkerchief and said, "I have a cold, girl Chan, go in quickly."

After saying that, he hurried away.

The old lady was holding her forehead restlessly, and when she saw her coming, she raised her hand to let the maid watch the tea.

Shen Tuchan didn't sit down, but walked over to the old lady's side and said, "Grandmother, don't be angry, it's a small matter."

Only then did the old lady sit up straight and said with some displeasure: "You know everything?"

Before Shen Tuchan spoke, she said irritably: "I said earlier that she is not a capable woman, and I didn't say it was her fault at all. It was a trivial matter. Look at the trouble. Fortunately, I didn't hang myself, otherwise the matter would become a big deal." , The censors have something to do again, and they were supposed to be dismissed as outsiders, but now they have to ask others to come in for the sake of the reputation of both sides!"

These are trivial matters, Shen Tuchan helped the old lady loosen her shoulders and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, I went to inquire just now, the woman was kicked out by her mother-in-law after she was widowed, and her natal sister-in-law is not pleasing to her, let's take some money Give it to her sister-in-law, and arrange her natal family well, she will either come in obediently, or she will be a concubine, and she can't turn the sky under her nose."

The old lady's complexion got better now, she patted her hand and said: "I'm getting old, and I can't do anything, but luckily I still have you at home."

Shen Tuchan just smiled, hesitated for a while before saying: "Third Aunt and Third Uncle have always raised eyebrows, maybe they haven't come back to it for a while."

The old lady snorted: "I have always felt sorry for her as a housekeeper who is too tired all these years, and I don't ask her for morning and night. Yes, it's because she is too self-righteous!"

After finishing speaking, he felt a slip of the tongue, and unconsciously smacked his mouth.

However, Shen Tuchan didn't seem to understand, she just leaned on her and said: "Grandmother is our backbone, we can't leave us alone. Grandmother takes care of us, so we won't do wrong things."

The old lady's face improved a lot when she heard the words, she took her hand and said: "When the concubine's room enters the door, you can help your third aunt to take care of the house, so that she will be tired of the housekeeper every day and have no time to take care of your third uncle. In case that concubine gets favored because of this, she will complain about us again."

Shen Tuchan nodded obediently, and then said thoughtfully: "Grandmother, don't say this in front of third uncle, he worked so hard to arrange a decent job for brother some time ago, if grandma would get angry with him because of such a trivial matter, I'm afraid It's the third uncle who feels sad, originally the third uncle wanted to take a concubine and he should do it, even though she is a widow, she didn't come from Yanhualiuxiang, it's just a trivial matter."

The old lady nodded hesitantly.

For Shen Tuchan, this was even a trivial matter. She didn't want to pay attention to Fang Shi at first, but Fang Shi seemed to be very energetic, so she had to suffer a little.

After Shen Tuchan met Jiang Lan in the Yuexiang teahouse that day, she was waiting for a major event in the imperial court. It had been several days, and there was no good news about any of these things, so she had to take the initiative to go to the palace to have a look.

After Zheng Cuicui's death, the eighth princess didn't bother her for a long time. She must have worked out a way to deal with her with the Duke of Ming Dynasty.
