In the early summer, the capital city was a bit sultry, with the continuous light rain, there was actually a bit of the plum rain atmosphere that can only be found in the south.

At three o'clock, Shi woke up from his afternoon nap, and saw the drizzle outside, and even took a breath, feeling sticky with moisture.Because it is too early to use ice before the hot season, I feel that my whole body is wet and sticky, and I feel really unhappy.The weather this year is really abnormal, and I don't know how Zhuangzi's progress is?Thinking about the cost of the eldest son's marriage some time ago, Shi Shi felt even more chest tightness and shortness of breath.

"Madam is awake?" Hearing the sound, Lai's family pushed open the door and entered, only to see Shi Shi half leaning against the bed, raising the curtain in a daze, hurriedly leading the little girl to help Shi Shi get dressed.Shi Shi glanced at Lai's family, waved away the maids and left her alone.While helping Shi's hair comb, the Lai family said slowly,

"I found out clearly that there are a lot of stewards coming from the grandma's side. Because it is inconvenient for the stewards to enter the second door, the uncle lent his outer study to the grandma, and pulled the screen to answer. I didn't see anything. The object was sent to Qing Cang Zhai."

Shi Shi nodded, and her face that couldn't see clearly was printed in the vanity mirror.It is customary in Daqin that the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and New Year's Eve are the time to hand over the income and income for the farm shop three times a year.Zixin came in with a huge sum of money. Although the items on the dowry list were not moving, the annual income was living things.Shi Shi sent people to watch the movement there early in order to wait for an opportunity to move.

Speaking of which, the master of Jia's family has his own monthly money from the office, and it is a rule for each small kitchen to purchase and distribute uniformly from the big kitchen.If the masters of each family want to eat something new, they can buy it by themselves and don't take public accounts.Jia Min is an unmarried daughter, so all expenses for her small kitchen are paid by Shi.It is said that the Shi family came out, but in the end he also left the public account.Shi knew that sooner or later the family property would be handed over, only her dowry and private property could not be coveted by others.If he had never had such thoughts when he was young, but when his daughters-in-law came in one by one, Shi Shi had to make plans for himself.

"Ma'am," Lai's family couldn't see Shi's expression, so they had to continue to report the truth, "The man in my family has been watching the grandma's stewards since they came to Beijing. People escorted Xiang into Beijing. Even Grandma’s Zhuangzi in the suburbs, there was no convoy going in and out.”

Shi Shi frowned even more when he heard this, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in that Zishen gourd.Thinking back to the dowry list I saw that day, there was indeed a lot of real money on it, and now I don't see her taking any action. Could it be that she is really stupid and wants to sit and eat?Or does she also think that sooner or later the family business of this mansion will be hers, so the current prospects are not in her eyes?Involuntarily, Shi fell into the illusion of infinity, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, feeling that he was in danger.

"Ma'am, Grandma and Miss are here."

Hearing the servant girl's report, Shi's face became even darker.At noon, when Zi Xin came to serve the meal, he just said something to ask Shen Chu to come, but he didn't expect Zi Xin to bring Jia Min with him.After waving the little girl away, Shi looked at Lai's family in the mirror and asked, "These days, you look at him coldly, what kind of person is that person?"

The Lai family had a smile on their face, and without looking at Shi Shi, they pulled her hair with a smile and wiped their foreheads, and then replied,

"Ms. Bing. The slave girl is stupid to look at this grandma. The grandma laughs every day, she doesn't understand what she says, and she doesn't understand if she doesn't do things clearly. It's the four mothers around her who are in charge of the big business. Grandma's big and small affairs. Whether it's personnel affairs or money, everything is handled tightly. Now Qingcangzhai is like an iron bucket, which can't be inserted in. The second grandma is very capable, and she puts on an inconspicuous Housekeeper, this time the uncle will punish you as well."

Shi Shi sneered, picked up a jade hairpin and stuck it in his hair, and said with a smile,

"It's not entirely true to say that she is stupid. Although her words and deeds are not all smooth, and her words are not pleasant, but have you ever seen her suffer? She is so slippery in everything that I can't handle it. I'm looking at the second bedroom, too' Honestly, I'm really lucky!"

Shi's words were sarcasm, and there was hatred in his eyes.The Lai family's cold eyes looked at the slander in their hearts, but there was a compliment on their faces,

"Look at what Madam said, this mansion is not based on Madam's leadership, not to mention that Madam is still in charge of the house, no matter which grandma is in charge in the future, no one will dare to say no to you."

When Shi Shi heard this, he was slightly annoyed.He also ordered mandarin ducks and parrots to come in to serve and change clothes.The Lai family's heart sank when they saw the juicy maidservants.The maids around Shi Shi have always changed people without changing names.She no longer remembers where the first batch of mandarin ducks and parrots are now.

Seeing that Shi Shi packed everything up properly, she didn't follow any more, and two maidservants helped Shi Shi go to the east wing of the main house, then silently withdrew and walked along the chasing corridor.After walking a few steps, Lai's family saw a few little girls in the main courtyard laughing softly on the porch, and the ripples in their hearts could not be calmed down for a long time.Once upon a time, I was just like them.It's just that she married into Lai's family, and the rest of the sisters were all determined by Shi's family and disappeared.Thinking about it, I feel sad from my heart, I can't help myself.

Besides, Shi Shi walked slowly from the bedroom to the main hall wing room, speechless all the way.Yuanyang, Brother Parrot held Shi's hand one by one, looked down quietly at the front, the two occasionally looked at each other, and then immediately turned their eyes.It's only a few steps, but it seems to be a few miles long.Stepping into the main hall of Rongxi Hall, Shi had already made up his mind, and he naturally showed a smile on his face, but it made the two Mandarin Ducks and Parrots tremble with fear.The mandarin duck secretly winked at Brother Parrot, and Brother Parrot immediately stepped forward to open the curtain.

Zi Xin heard Shi Shi's footsteps early in the morning, saw the curtain raised, and immediately got up to meet Shi Shi.Before Shi Shi entered the door, there were two elegant and graceful girls standing in front of her. The one on the left was simply wearing a bundled bun, without pearl hairpins around her. There were a few strands of silk in her hair. If you look carefully, there are all embellishments on the strands. With crystal clear gems the size of rice grains.The light pink thin thick summer shirt is tied with a vermilion embroidered butterfly skirt, with jingle bells around the waist, so that it looks unparalleled, and it makes the girl around her bright and charming.

"Mother." Zi Xin and Jia Min greeted Fushen by coincidence, and when Shi raised his hand slightly, the two of them sat down on the chair opposite the kang bed.The little maid hurriedly passed tea, and put melons and fruits on the kang table.

Shi took a sip from the teacup, raised his eyes slightly to look at Zixin.She sat upright, with her hands on her knees, her eyebrows drooping slightly, without a trace of fault.She put down the teacup with a smile, with a hint of helplessness on her face,

"Boss, daughter-in-law, I'm looking for you today, and I still have something to ask for."

"Mother, don't mention asking for help. Just ask for anything." Zi Xin raised her eyes to look at Shi Shi, her tone was flat, neither fearful nor joyful.

Shi nodded and continued, "Look, what is the situation in this mansion now. It's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and there are so many things that haven't happened yet. Hey, in the past years, there was the second daughter-in-law to help, but now she is like that. , I don’t want to bother her. Why don’t you leave all the big and small matters in this mansion to you from now on. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me. Don’t worry, these mothers are proper people and will definitely help you A helping hand."

Zi Xin's face was calm, she stood up and gave a little blessing, tilting her head and lowering her eyes, and said,

"It was the mother's order, but the daughter-in-law dare not refuse. It's just... mother." Zi Xin paused and looked up at Shi, "The daughter-in-law thinks that this younger sister is about to leave the cabinet, although there are usually mothers who teach her, it's just a matter of paper. Why don't you leave the matter of this festival to your younger sister first, and I will help you from the side, okay?"

"This..." Shi looked at Jia Min with a questioning look in his eyes.

Jia Min also got up and gave blessings, and readily accepted the New Year's work.Zi Xin happily promised to help her with all her strength.Shi Shi had no choice but to send Zi Xin away and leave Jia Min alone to speak.Jia Min waved away the waiters in the room, turned around and sat beside Shi Shi, took her arm, and said coquettishly,

"Mother, please calm down. Why bother to embarrass her at this time? I don't even think about it. After my daughter gets married, she still has to rely on her brothers and sisters-in-law. This is the righteous sister of the Crown Princess!"

Shi stretched out his finger and tapped Jia Min's forehead, and sighed as he looked at his daughter's bright appearance.A daughter was born like this, and she was born in the Duke's mansion, what kind of person can't match her?But it happened that the heir was determined to be weak in the Lin family.Although he is also a big family, but in this generation, he can be regarded as the peak.If you want to be more diligent in life, you must be born in the imperial examination.However, among the thousands of students nowadays, only a few of them have achieved fame?Thinking about it, I also feel sorry for my daughter.The Zhang family's orphan girl will be destined sooner or later, but her own daughter's future is indeed uncertain, and her face is getting more and more ugly.

Seeing the change in Shi's face, Jia Min naturally thought of what she was going to say, sighed softly in her heart, but coaxed,

"Mother, I beg you as a daughter! You also have to make good plans for your daughter. Now that the daughter's marriage has been decided, if there is any change, how will the daughter deal with it! Since there is no room for change, why not make another plan? Your future son-in-law, He is also a person who studies for fame and fame. No matter what step you take in the future, you will need someone to help you, right? Now that I have sold it to that person, can she carry one or two with me in the future?"

Although Shi Shi was unwilling, but he heard what Jia Min said was reasonable, so he had no choice but to give up.It's just that I can't help but sigh in my heart, if I can marry my niece and niece, it will be another happy scene now.

Seeing that Shi Shi had turned around, Jia Min secretly breathed a sigh of relief.What I said just now was actually not hypocritical, it's just that when we get along these days, I have developed some genuine affection for Zi Xin, and I can't see my mother picking up on my sister-in-law.In my heart, I blamed my mother for not being able to compare her heart with her heart. What would happen if her mother-in-law from home calculated herself everywhere.

Not to mention how well-organized Jia Minli's family is, nor how much the Wang family was aggrieved after hearing the news.But it is said that it is the Dragon Boat Festival, and the sky has cleared up.The mansion was very busy, and Zi Xin lent the two mothers to Jia Min, which was considered a help.

At noon, after eating, Zi Xin fell asleep for a while, and suddenly smelled a scent, and felt faint, and when she woke up, she felt the wheels rolling under her body, and opened her eyes to find that she was actually in a carriage.The light came in through the small window of the carriage, and it was reflected on a person in the carriage, showing a faint halo.Zi Xin squinted to meet Jia She's pair of peach blossom pupils.

"Miss, we have been married for several months and have not taken you out for a walk. Today, I asked my father and mother for instructions. We can go back after dinner. You should take it easy. You must be tired after serving your mother every day!"

Jia She was full of smiles and spoke slowly and eloquently.In the small space, Zi Xin could clearly smell his body, which was clean and gentle.Thinking of his care for her for the past few months, Zi Xin was at a loss for a moment.Jia Amnesty didn't seem to care about Zi Xin's answer.The carriage drove for a while, and finally stopped.

Jia Amnesty helped Zi Xin get out of the car, she looked around but saw no one else.Jia Amnesty held Zixin's hand tightly, and moved his jaw slightly to signal the mountain road ahead.Zi Xin had no choice but to follow Jia She.Xu is a good practitioner, the mountain road is winding and winding, Zi Xin is not tired when walking, and listening to Jia She's introduction of the scenery along the way is also quite enjoyable.

Finally, the two of them came to the top of the mountain, and when they looked around, there was an open space in front of them, and Zi Xin smiled.five years!In the past five years, except in the space, she never went out, and almost forgot about the outside world.Listening to each other's yelling from far to near, they saw several dragon boats rowing across the river in front of them.Zi Xin looked sideways at Jia She in surprise, did he bring her to see the dragon boat?

Jia She smiled, grasped Zi Xin's hand tightly, and said slowly, "I hope to win the hearts of one person, and never leave the white head. Xin'er, I, Jia She, will only have you in this life. If you break this oath, it will be like this jade."

As he spoke, he took out something from his bosom and threw it down the mountain. "Touch" when the object touched the rock, it was instantly smashed to pieces.Jia She turned his head, his peach blossom pupils flashed with anticipation, he smiled brimmingly, and uttered a few more words,

"Xin'er, if I will never leave, will you be willing to depend on each other for life and death?"

Zi Xin stared at Jia She, feeling that her expression must be wonderful at the moment.Why did this bloody confession actually make her feel tears welling up?
