Raising a Wise Husband: A Lovely Wife and a Husband

Chapter 117
Lou believed that the princess came here for Aunt Mi, and most likely she suspected that she had taken the prince's favor, so she wanted to use her and Shuyuan's hands to get rid of Aunt Mi.

To be honest, she doesn't mind being used as a knife by the princess, because that Aunt Mi is always a scourge, and getting rid of it can also make her and Shuyuan feel at ease.

At the same time, she can also show her favor to the princess. After having a princess, her social status in the circle of noble ladies will be even higher.

In order to avoid someone always criticizing her identity as the wife of a concubine behind her back.

The concubine took the tea and ate it, put down the cup and said: "You guys are not needed. In the palace or outside the palace, I really don't want to keep Aunt Mi, she won't show up again."

"This kind of thing, I really don't have to pretend to be someone else's hands. After she finished speaking, she looked at Shuyuan, wanting to hear what Shuyuan had to say.

Shuyuan met Wang Hao's gaze for a while before she lowered her head, and after a while she said softly: "Wang Hao is here to help us."

The concubine smiled and waved her hands to let the people in the room go out. She pointed to Man Jiuzi's food and said, "Let's talk while eating. Your name is Shuyuan, right? People are smart."

"If it's for Aunt Mi, do I need to go to such trouble? Just like if I want to do something to you, do I still need to hold a banquet here?"

She looked at Shu Yuan and said, "But I really have to help you, but not for Aunt Mi. It's a bit different from what you think, I just want to help you."

Shu Yuan looked at the dishes that Wang Hao brought into her bowl, and the chopsticks in her hands seemed to be too heavy for her to hold: "Princess Xie, my concubine and others are very grateful. But my concubine dare not bother the concubine for such trivial matters." .”

The princess looked at Shuyuan meaningfully: "I said I want to help you. There may be many reasons, but one thing will not change, that is, the people who are helped will be grateful."

"I won't do things that are thankless. I have reached the age of knowing my destiny, and I don't know how to force others."

"Of course, everyone is happy to help people. It would be better if you don't need my help. I like you, Shuyuan."

She took some green vegetables and ate them: "The taste is not bad, at least it is edible. Come, try it." The most famous restaurant in the city is only edible in the princess's mouth.

Shuyuan first looked at the princess when she heard the words, and saw that there was no change in her expression, but her heart sank: If the princess wants to do something, it is that Aunt Mi is really not what she used to be.

Lou glanced at Shuyuan, wanted to say something, but finally closed his mouth: It is a good thing to be favored by the princess, but it is another matter to owe favors to the princess.

The princess doesn't care about Aunt Mi at all, it's not a lie, it's because she really doesn't take her seriously; but if she fights for Shuyuan and her - what does the princess want them to pay back?
The matter seemed very simple, pinching Aunt Mi from the princess was like pinching an ant, but to the Jin family, it was like saving the lives of the Jin family!

And the Mu clan.

This kind of kindness, if she is young, she is small, the princess can simply say a little effort; but if it is big, it is as big as the sky, if the princess really wants to let Shuyuan or the Jin family go through fire and water, she cannot refuse.

Things that the princess can't do, or things that are inconvenient for the princess and the palace, are a big deal for the Jin family and Shu Yuan, and it is very likely that she will pay back the love of the princess with her life.

Favors from important people are not so easy to owe; because you have someone who has them and is better than yours, so when a big person wants you to return a favor, what else can you give except that life?

So Shuyuan refused the concubine's help, and Lou did not dare to speak.

The concubine continued to talk about the daily life. During some short chats between the host and the west, the meal was finally finished: such a banquet, where Lou and Shuyuan have any hunger and fullness, just depends on whether the concubine is full. .

As soon as the concubine put down the chopsticks, Shuyuan and Lou could only put down the chopsticks in their hands even if their chests were pressed against their backs because of hunger, and stood up obediently to serve.

"This is my token. From now on, I will often walk around the palace if I have nothing to do. I like smart children. When I am old, I am usually afraid that no one will come to talk to me." The princess handed over the two jade pendants.

Shuyuan's jade is smaller, with a dragon coiled around it in the shape of a ring: How can there be such a thing in the non-royal family?

Lou's one is square, and on it is a golden carp jumping out of the water, about to climb over the tall dragon gate.

The concubine didn't say any more, and she didn't need Shuyuan and Lou to see her off, she took her away with a whimper.

It wasn't until the concubine's carriages and horses left that Lou and Shuyuan's legs softened and they sat down on the chairs. They only looked at each other with wry smiles.

Although they are the young mistresses of the Jin family, the elders above are all there, so they don't need to greet the dignitaries.

At most, it was just a strike or something. Today was the first time they faced a high-ranking official alone, and they were still a princess.

In this city, the palace is the sky. If there is any noise in the palace, the whole city will be shaken.

"I also said that I am not afraid of death, and I will never dare to boast in the future." Lou smiled and thumped his leg: "Today, my courage was almost shattered."

Shu Yuan nodded: "Yes. When I didn't see the princess, I never thought about what the palace was like. Only when I really faced it did I know what life and death are."

Before the two of them went downstairs, people from the Jin Mansion rushed up, and the current one was Jin Chengye.

Lifting the curtain to look, he was relieved to find that Shuyuan and Lou were all fine: "I begged the princess a few times but she ignored her and didn't call me upstairs, so I can only worry about it outside. .”

"What's the matter?" After asking, he waved his hand again: "Go back and talk about it, the old lady is waiting, so I will tell you all together so that you don't have to say it twice."

He glanced at Shuyuan and gave her a look, first reached out to shake Lou Shi's hand, and then handed Lou Shi to the girl beside him: "Seeing that you are fine, the stone in my heart finally fell to the ground."

The moment he rushed into the house and saw Shuyuan and Lou sitting by the window holding hands, he knew that the relationship between the two had changed: it was the change he hoped for.

Lou looked at him and gave him an angry look: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law is here today." She pushed Jin Chengye away, and pulled Shu Yuan back: "Let's go back."

She was very happy that Jin Chengye had just held her hand, but she was a little embarrassed in front of Shuyuan: today was unusual, and she didn't want to make Shuyuan jealous.

But she was very reluctant to let her push Jin Chengye to Shuyuan's side, so she pushed Jin Chengye away and took Shuyuan's hand.

Shu Yuan smiled and didn't say anything, letting Lou Shi drag her downstairs.

Jin Chengye rubbed his nose, and could only keep up with him in silence: He suddenly felt that he might have lost his mind—if Lou and Shuyuan were really on good terms, there would be more situations like this today.

As soon as they entered the second gate, someone pulled the cart over, hurriedly helped Shu Yuan and Lou Shi into the cart, quickly pulled up the cart and went straight to the old lady.

In the old lady's house, not only the three daughters-in-law of the Zhao family came, but also all the masters of the Nanbei Mansion.

The men were all talking in the flower hall on the east side, while the two old ladies were waiting in the west hall with their daughters-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law. Everyone looked anxious.

They couldn't figure out why the people of the palace suddenly took Shuyuan and Lou to Yingxian Tower, especially after Jin Chengye couldn't go upstairs at all, they were even more anxious.

Seeing Shuyuan and Lou's return, the men of the Jin family didn't care too much: they are a family anyway, and it's not uncommon to see them, so they all come to the west hall.

Shu Yuan and Lou Shi were shocked again. Seeing that there are so many people in the northern and southern prefectures, the two of them could only smile wryly.

But it made Shuyuan understand that blood is thicker than water, and understand more clearly what is the family affection that is broken and still connected.

No matter how many conflicts there are between the two governments, and no matter how much the two governments plan for each other, they can be let go when facing danger.

That's why the Jin family has been able to stand up to this day, and it is still prosperous and unabated after two dynasties.

Shuyuan and Lou's family didn't know what the family was like, and even Jin Chengye didn't expect to be so homogeneous, so Shuyuan didn't know what should be said and what should not be said.

After thinking about it, she made an excuse to take medicine, and first talked to Jin Chengye privately; to Jin Chengye, she only concealed her original intention of going to the nunnery with Mrs. Lou, and then asked Jin Chengye to talk to the old lady to see if there was any inconvenience. of.

Hai Shi thinks that there is nothing to hide about this matter, because it concerns the Jin family, this matter has to be informed to the head of the house.

So Shuyuan also told the story from the bottom of the book, but still didn't mention the true meaning of her and Lou's going to the nunnery.

But she still found that when she mentioned the nunnery, the faces of several elders in the room changed, and many elders looked at Haishi.

Her heart skipped a beat: Could it be that the news that girl Shiliu inquired about was not fake?Is it true that the former nanny of Fangfei's two children is in the nunnery?

But after today, if she finds another chance to go there, she may not be able to find the person who was a nanny in the Jin Mansion.

Everyone in the Jin family was preoccupied with the matter of the princess, so Shu Yuan didn't see anything more.

The old lady then asked Shu Yuan and Lou Shi to change their clothes, and the elders of the two houses stayed: of course they had to discuss it.

What Shuyuan didn't hear was Wei's first sentence after she left: "What stays is always a disaster, as I said a long time ago. Did the nunnery really happen to be there by their two sisters-in-law?"

Hai Shi said indifferently: "We don't need my sister-in-law to worry about this matter in the Beifu, but it is the matter of the Wangfu——Wangfei's kindness, how should we deal with it?"

She didn't want to talk about the things Wei Shi mentioned, but after hearing Wei Shi's words, only pain flashed across Jin Chengye's face.

It was as if a sharp knife was going to stab him in the body, and it would split him in two: the knife was alive and fast, so the pain went deep into the bones.

People couldn't bear to take a second look at the pain on his face, so the elders in the hall either sighed or pretended not to see it, and no one tried to comfort him.

Even Haishi, who loves him the most, didn't say a word to him.
