film and television world as an actor

Chapter 10
In the back house of the Sheng Mansion, the young lady of the Sheng family was sitting in front of the dressing table, with her cheeks resting on her hands, wondering what she was thinking.The little maid He'er stood by, and the master and servant did not speak for a moment.

"What is the girl thinking?" He'er couldn't hold back and asked.

"I didn't think of Yao Xiucai." Miss Sheng's family quickly denied it, and immediately realized what she was talking about, and blushed again.He'er didn't hold back her laughter, Miss Sheng's family only felt ashamed and annoyed.Seeing that her young lady's face was not good-looking, she didn't act presumptuously any more, and said:
"Girl, do you think I should persuade him to go back and study at ease tomorrow?"

"He has a proud heart, and he doesn't want to accept favors for nothing. How about this, you just write a letter to him every day."

"Ah, who am I writing to?" He'er's face collapsed.

"Don't you have a brother, just write to your brother."

"But my brother is also working in the mansion, and I can see him every day. I really don't know what to write to him."

"Then figure it out yourself, I don't care, I want to sleep." Miss Sheng's family still felt inexplicably ashamed about talking about strange men in the boudoir, and quickly ended the topic.He'er looked at her temper tantrum and had no choice but to serve her to bed.

"Be careful, don't let anyone see you." Just as He'er turned to leave, the young lady of the Sheng family who covered her head in the quilt spoke again.

"Got it, miss."

But at this moment, in the yard not far away, the mistress of the Sheng Mansion, Mrs. Li, was changing clothes for the master of the Sheng family, Sheng Wei. Mrs. Li hesitated to speak several times, and Sheng Wei, who had been with him for decades, had already discovered that something was wrong. Open your mouth and ask:
"Madam, do you have anything to say?"

"Master, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing." Li still spoke.

"Today, the nanny next to me happened to bump into Shulan's maid, He'er, talking to the scholar at the door."

"Huh? What kind of good thing is this?" Sheng Wei frowned. It's not a trivial matter for this maid to have a private meeting with an outsider.

"If that's the case, it's not a big deal. At worst, I will send her out of the house, but it seems that Shulan ordered her." When Sheng Wei heard this, his eyes went dark, and his blood rushed to his forehead.

"What?....Since you know about it, why did you say it now." Sheng Wei raised his voice, then lowered his voice and asked.

"No, I just said a few more words, which were passed on by the servant girl." Li Shi said hastily.

"That's not okay. Shulan has a weak temper and is always obedient. She can't do anything that humiliates her family. It must be that He'er has thought of herself, so she has attracted Shulan. No, this maidservant can't stay, so I will call tonight Just kill it." Sheng Wei was about to put on his clothes while speaking.

"No, master, that scholar is Yao Yi." Shi Li hurriedly held down Sheng Wei.

"That Yao Yi who was admitted to Juren? Tell me what's going on." Sheng Wei eased his hand.

"The steward below once said that Shulan met him once, but I didn't take it seriously. Yesterday, Yao Yi set up a stall to help others write letters, and it happened that He'er bumped into him. That's why this happened. "

"No, even if I saw it once, it shouldn't be like this with Shulan's temperament."

"Master, have you forgotten that Shulan happened to overhear us when we helped Shulan choose someone?"

When Sheng Wei heard this, he didn't know what to say.

"At that time, we chose Sun Zhigao and Yao Yi at the end of the selection. The little girl inevitably fell in love, and happened to meet Yao Yi. In addition, Yao Yi is very good-looking. Due to many factors," Mrs. Li said nothing. Let's go on, but the meaning is that this matter is not to blame for my daughter.

"You don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing because of this?" Sheng Wei sat down on the bed and said with a sigh.

"Although Yao Yi's family is poor, they don't have parents-in-law. We were interested in him at the beginning, and this time he won the election again. He is much better than that Sun Zhigao. Wouldn't it be a good thing if the two fell in love with each other?"

"Confused, it can be said that our Sheng family was interested in his future when he didn't pass the exam, but now that he has passed the exam, we will rush to it, and most people will look down on him." Sheng Wei said.Being scolded and confused by her husband, even Li Shi has a good temper and feels a little uncomfortable. Sitting there, tears come as soon as she says it.

"It's not like you don't know that when I gave gifts to Mr. Hong's family in the past, the lady at the other end always looked down on me, no matter how much our family did for her husband. Our two sons are not good at studying, I I just hope that I can find a scholar for Shulan, so that she won't be angry with me in the future." Li Shi said, wiping away tears.

When Sheng Wei saw his wife crying, he felt uncomfortable, so he stopped talking immediately and started to comfort his wife.

"You've been wronged, but we can't just ignore this matter." When Mrs. Li stopped crying, Sheng Wei talked about it again.

"My daughter's skin is thin, I will call He'er to give a lecture tomorrow, He'er is a smart person, she should know what to do." Li Shi said with tears.

Early the next morning, Master Hu brought his wife to the Sheng family's residence.The Hu family and the Sheng family are related. Master Hu's younger brother married Sheng Wei's younger sister, and the two families can be regarded as family friends.Regarding Master Hu's visit, Sheng Wei did not dare to neglect, and brought Mrs. Li together to welcome him in.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Sheng, but he still looks good." Mr. Hu said politely.

"Master Hu is being polite. I don't know if there is something important to discuss this time." Sheng Wei asked straight to the point. He and Master Hu usually deal with business at most. I really don't know why he came this time. Why.

"Of course it's a good thing." Master Hu said with a smile.

"I remember that the girl from Master Sheng's family is getting old, and she is looking for a good family recently." This time it was Mrs. Hu who spoke. Although Mrs. Hu is nearly 40 years old, she is still a beautiful woman. If Yao Yi is here Bian will definitely feel that the gene of the Hu family's squinting eyes is very strong.

As soon as these words came out, Sheng Wei and Li Shi looked at each other, and then Li Shi also spoke.

"Who is Mrs. Hu acting as a matchmaker for? I seem to remember that Mr. Hu is engaged."

"Of course not my incompetent son." Master Hu said.

"Oh, master Hu's young master won the move in one fell swoop this time, isn't that considered a weapon?" Master Sheng said hastily.

Hearing this, Master Hu and his wife both showed smiles. Their son's promotion is a proud thing for them. These two days, wherever they go, they always talk about "incompetent son", and then listen to other people's praise, It's beautiful in my heart.This is actually human nature. As a parent, I can't help but show off my son.

"Actually, it's a good friend of my son's. He's old and wants to talk about marriage, but he doesn't have any elders at home, so he asked us for a favor." Master Hu finished his complacency, and started talking about business.

"And that person also passed the Juren examination this year, and he looks good, no matter how you look at it, he is a good family." Madam Hu added.

Sheng Wei and Li Shi looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't know why their daughter was so popular all of a sudden. First came Yao Yi, then Hu Su's classmate.
