Chapter 21: Old and Thick Skin
The outcome of the matter was a little unexpected. After coming back, Song Shi'an did not go home, but went straight to the largest flower building in the capital. It was not until dinner that he brought four Huakui from the flower building, together with four gynecological saints from the capital, and sent them to Shenfu in a vast carriage, saying that they were prepared for compensation.
When standing at the door of Shenfu, his speech was also concise. Generally speaking, my daughter accidentally lost a fetus made by your son. Now I present four mothers as compensation.
These four Huakui are all newly selected women. They are healthy, young and beautiful, and are absolutely as beautiful as that. As for their fertility, there are four famous doctors testifying, and I believe there is absolutely no problem.
The final problem is whether your son can do it or not. It's not my Song Shi'an's problem, but your son's ability in some aspects.
This incident refreshed Song Zichu's understanding of this cheap father's unscrupulousness and bottomless. When she heard about it after dinner, the corners of her mouth twitched weakly and said to herself, Sure enough, there are all kinds of birds in the forest! This compensation plan, kills other people's children and compensates them for a few watches. You are really embarrassed to say that Song Shi'an!
And Song Zilan and Song Ziqing, as expected, were also brought out from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice that night.
From afar, I heard the crying on the other side of Chunhuayuan. Obviously, the mother and daughter were hugging to death. Zichu hooked the corners of his mouth and ordered, "Gun the lights out, let's go to bed early tonight!"
Zichu and mulberry cinnamon sleep sweetly here, and Zhu Xiaoyan is not so comfortable there.
Then after Song Shi'an, who was full of wine and blushing, came back, Zhu was about to say a beauty ecstasy when she saw her husband take out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve. She opened it and almost fainted in front of her.
"Master! How... Did you spend so much money out all of this time?
Song Shi'an sprayed the wine and spit on her, "Isn't it the good daughter you taught? One by one, they are as stupid as pigs! I asked you to ruin the big girl's marriage, but you made such a big basket for me. Let me tell you, these IOUs are really the expenses to save your three daughters. The money redeemed by the four Huakui, as well as the expenses of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, 40,000 taels, you have to make up for it quickly within this month!"
Zhu Xiaoyan held these thin pieces of paper, and her daughter's joy had long been thrown away.
She stood for a long time until Song Shi'an was lying on ** and snoring. Then she sat heavily on the stool and muttered to herself, "It seems that I really have no other choice."
Early the next morning, after Zichu groomed and dressed neatly, he walked out of Tsinghua Courtyard in the dark clothes he bought from Qiansifang that day.
When she came to Chunhuayuan and looked at Zhu Xiaoyan's red and swollen eyes, she was happy, but she deliberately looked surprised and said, "Oh, Madam, the three sisters must have come back too late last night. Look, your eyes are so blue. It's easy to make people feel that you don't respect the queen when you go to the palace like this. Where's the mother!"
Zhu Xiaoyan was also worried about how to suppress her sleep-deprived panda's eyes. Hearing the words, she quickly asked someone to come over with a bronze mirror, looked left and right, and then sighed, "Yes, what should I do?"
"Don't worry, madam, I'll make a fan for you, so that you can cover this circle immediately."
"Really?" Zhu Xiaoyan was naturally a little skeptical when she saw Zichu's attentiveness and flattery. But after seeing Zichu skillfully mixing it with her original fat powder, she pressed it up little by little with powder, huh? The original dark circles really can't be seen at all!
At that moment, she was so happy that she took Zichu's hand and said a lot of good words with joy and approval. Zichu also made a meek and lovely appearance, but he secretly snapped his fingers and said, "Hmm, this is the base makeup. If there is no makeup powder, you will look good in a moment on this hot day!
To her expectation, Zhu Xiaoyan still brought the other three daughters this time. I don't know if she was afraid of bringing her into the palace to be more questionable or something else. In a word, she took Zichu's hand very well and made a loving look to her, saying, "I seldom take you to the palace before. This time, it's rare for everyone to go together. Your three sisters are always ignorant. In the future, you should take care of them more.
Zichu looked into Zhu Xiaoyan's eyes and answered slowly, "Of course, my sister, how can I not take care of it more?"
Zhu Xiaoyan listened to a good sentence and asked her to say a very complicated and deep meaning. She was stunned for a moment. After seeing Song Zilan and Song Ziqing enter the room, she squeezed out a smile and said, "Okay, everyone is here. Let's get ready to go!"
When it comes to the palace courtyard, Song Zichu, as a star, has come to these places before. But in front of her, she lived in the harem of the emperor and queen, but it was the first time she saw it.
As a distinguished guest invited by the queen, he was naturally led directly to Fengyi Palace to meet the queen as soon as he entered the palace. Looking at a large number of people kneeling in a hall, Zichu lowered his face and secretly spit out his tongue.
The place where she knelt was too far away from the one sitting on it, so she could only see the pearly spirit at that end from a distance, but the queen looked good from afar, at least stronger than the ordinary second-rate and third-rate female stars.
Fortunately, the time of the salute was only a while. After the salute, a female official stood around the queen and said a few words, to the effect that the queen had recently been tired in order to serve the sick emperor's phoenix body. The emperor looked better day by day and felt sorry for the queen's hard work to take care of herself, so she specially ordered to summon the women's in Beijing to the palace to accompany the emperor. After that, enjoy the flowers and have fun.
After listening to such high-sounding words, Zichu would not really think that the first family in the palace courtyard was harmonious. On the contrary, after her uncle knew that she was going to enter the palace, he repeatedly told her that Prince Junyu had the intention to usurp the throne. Now it is known to passers-by, which made her begin to think about what hideous tricks are behind this flower appreciation banquet.
After meeting the queen for a while, the wives sat together drinking tea and enjoying the flowers, and the girls wandered around freely.
There are as many as 20 or 30 girls who entered the palace at a glance. However, Song Zichu's eyes were blackened. Except for the three concubines she hated, she didn't know any of them. Or... I can't name people I know.
So, when she was stopped by a girl in light green clothes with a smile, she just instinctively asked, "Who are you?"
"Haha! Look, after she fell into the water, she really forgot us.
"That's right, but even if she didn't fall into the water before, her eyes were higher than the top, and she would take us in her eyes before she saw it."
Listening to this sarcastic words, Song Zi tasted it for the first time. Then he immediately replied, "What do you say? If I don't see you in my eyes, do I still have to trample you on your feet? In fact, I think you should be trampled, but your eyes are above your head. If I step down, won't you become blind?
"You! Humph, Song Zichu, don't be proud! Don't think we don't know. Isn't it because you have such a rich dowry that you are so arrogant? Do you dare to say that if you don't have these dowries, will Shengfu marry you, the eldest daughter of the bereant?
Zichu is a little aware of the statement of this bereaved daughter. She has acted in many ancient costume plays and knows that there are five people who do not marry in feudal society: they do not take children of a rebellious family, they do not take them, there are criminal people in the world who do not take them, they do not take evil diseases in the world, and the eldest daughter of bereavement.
But why do you mention Shengfu again? Why did you get involved in this again? Also, isn't Song Zilan the person hiding behind these stupid girls looking at him? Dare these are her brain-damaged fans and best friends?
Zichu thought of a twitch at the corners of his mouth, and then he said it again, which made him look a little ferocious.
"Ha ha, I'm jealous of my rich dowry, isn't it? If yes, you can say it directly! However, it's useless to say it directly. Everyone knows the strength of real money. Sister, I have money. Even if I wear street goods on my body, I am still high-end and elegant. You don't have that capital. Even if you pile up ten catties of gold on your head, people will think that your gold must be fake..."
"Song Zichu, you - you are simply shameless, you are shameless!"
"What? Am I shameless? You open your dog's eyes and see clearly. Sister, I have a good tooth! It's not like you, it leaks as soon as you speak!"
With that, Song Zichu also pulled the girl, revealing his neat teeth, shaking her dizzy.
The subtle discordant scene caused by several girls gathered together has fallen into the eyes of the old lady in charge of maintaining the order of public security in the garden.
"Okay, let's not care about her now."
"That's right, Sister Wanyin, the dress you are wearing today is really beautiful. Is it a new look from Master Qiansifang?"
Seeing that the girl in green who took the initiative to make things difficult before praised a companion around her, Zichu immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "This dress is really good. Where did you buy it? I'm also going to buy one for my grandmother to wear. Ha ha, it's really suitable for her age.
"You--!"
Seeing that the other party's face rose to purple, Zichu made a look of repentance and sighed, "Alas! I'm sorry to tell the truth again. Why is it always so sad to tell the truth?"
