Chapter 43 White horse gap
Back to the house, the red silk was still uneasy. I don't know why I saw the maid in Ziyu Garden. I felt a little flustered. After dinner, Shen asked herself to go to the south courtyard. The red silk left Weiwei and Qiaoyue, followed Su Hong to Shen's place, and also went out to walk around, and simply walked around the garden first. Su Hong did not urge her to follow her slowly and take a few steps.
"Miss, be careful under your feet." When she walked through the corner, Su Hong did not forget to remind her.
Red silk looked down at the road. The ground was covered with a thin layer of frost. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't see it. Then he said to Su Hong, "Thank you, Mother."
Su Hong smiled and said no. After the corner, she suddenly said, "Miss, I've grown up." In the past, she often said this sentence to Shen, but she will add a sentence later. There will always be such a day.
Of course, he was happy to hear Su Hong praise her red silk, but he only smiled at her and said nothing else. Who knew whether what Su Hong said was true or not, or had other deep meanings.
The weather at night is getting colder and colder. The little man who lit the lamp in front of him bent down and almost nested his whole body into a ball. He was not afraid of wearing a lot of red silk. Su Hong didn't say much, but only reminded, "Miss, don't freeze."
The red silk wrapped in a coat, turned around and said to Su Hong for a while, "Mother has been with my mother for some years."
"I have been following my wife since I was eleven years old." Su Hong said with some emotion, "It's been more than 30 years."
"How old is the mother?"
Su Hong thought for a moment, "Thirty to five."
"Where's Mother Su?"
Su Hong was stunned for a while. It seemed that no one had asked about this for a long time. Even she forgot about it. She shook her head and said, "Who knows? I only remember that she entered the prime minister's mansion at the age of 11. At that time, Prime Minister Shen was not the prime minister. She was a cabinet bachelor. At that time, I entered the mansion, and my wife was only five or six years younger than me."
Listening to Su Hong talking about the old days, there was a feeling that it was like a different world. Hong Silk looked at the old Mau, who she didn't like before, and thought for a moment and said, "Has Mother Su ever got married?" With the passage of time, the old age is like a white horse. These words are most suitable for the woman in front of her. She is not a beautiful woman, but she has an indescribable smell.
Su Hong smiled and smiled melancholy. "Since I entered the house at the age of 11, I have been dowry with my wife here at the age of 20. Except for the girls in the house, I still haven't seen anyone else." Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped and looked up to the red silk and said, "When I was twenty-three or twenty-four years old, my wife also helped me find a family. At that time, I was strong and determined that I would follow my wife for the rest of my life. My good sisters came to persuade me, but I didn't listen. At the age of 30, my wife didn't say anything more. Seeing that I am firm-willed and loyal to her, I simply let me follow all the time. In a blink of an eye, after so many years, I have seen through it.
"Have you ever had someone you like?"
"No." Su Hong smiled and said, "I have married a wife and had a son a long time ago."
"Miss, here we are." Su Hong walked up the steps with the red silk and crossed the threshold before putting down her hand. The red silk looked at her with a little surprise, and she seemed to smile suddenly, "I actually regard the young lady as my wife."
Along the way, Su Hong lowered her head and walked in front of her left. Occasionally, when she saw a rolling curtain in front of her, she reached out and lifted it up so that she could pass.
Shen was sitting in the small living room. The room was burning with charcoal fire. The red silk walked to the charcoal basin, reached out to warm it, untied the outer cover and casually handed it to the girl beside him. He sat down and took a sip of warm wine. He couldn't help sighing that the wine was sweet and had a refreshing taste. Shen still held the Buddha beads in his hand, etc. After drinking wine, the red silk put it down and said to the red silk, "Have a good time today."
"Concubine Shen was not feeling well, so she let the ninth prince take her daughter around the royal garden. On the way, she met several concubines who mistakenly regarded red silk as the concubine of the ninth prince's new concubine. There was only one thing." The red silk said to Shen every word about what happened today.
"Real?" After listening to what Hong Si said, Shen looked at Su Hong, who was on the side with complicated eyes. Su Hong tapped her head, as if she was discussing something in Shen's family. Naturally, Hong Si didn't understand it, but she didn't ask. Later, she asked the girl to get a warmer for herself.
Shen stretched out her hand to cover the red silk hand. "Why are your hands so cold? Did you go out to blow the wind just now?" She has long known the habit of red silk like to walk around after dinner. She asked her to change it when she was a child, but she still couldn't change it at the age of fourteen or fifteen.
Su Hong said from the back, "I only turned around for a while. The young lady thought that she would come back soon after waiting for a long time."
Shen smiled with relief, "Red silk has really grown up, and it's gratifying to be good for my mother."
"Isn't the mother asking her daughter if she is having a good time today?" Since entering the house, her mother and Su Hong have begun to sing and play in front of them, just to wrap themselves around their circle. Su Hong said, "Madam, Miss has grown up and is old enough to get married." Shen replied, "Yes." He turned his head and asked the red silk, "Is there anyone you like?"
"No." The red silk came back directly. If they hesitated, I'm afraid they will say that the red silk girl is shy. In the end, I'm afraid they will make a decision for themselves, either Zhang Jialang or Li Jialang. Since she made it clear with the Shen family that time, the Shen family has not forced her to get married. Of course, she has not mentioned marrying the prince. A few days ago, she heard from some girls that the prince fell in love with the young lady of the bachelor's family in charge of the Hanlin Academy. He heard that she was also a talented and beautiful woman. Red silk was relieved to hear that. That's good. I was still looking forward to it. The prince married that lady soon, so that I didn't have to worry about Tang Ruomu's rebellion in the future and he would be persecuted.
When Shen saw that the red silk denied it, she unconsciously laughed. She thought that the red silk was afraid of what she knew, so she didn't break her. She only said something and said, "What does the red silk think of the ninth prince?"
Tang Xiao? Red silk smiled and said, "He's a good person, but..." It's just that he likes men.
Shen hurriedly asked, "But what is it?"
I don't know what to say. Tang Xiao has a good character, but his interest is a little strange. Naturally, he can't say that to his mother. Finally, he said something that is not salty, "Tang Xiao likes very different from ordinary men."
Shen thought what her daughter wanted to express. She thought about it deeply and remembered that the eunuch who sent red silk in the afternoon said something to herself. The Empress liked the young lady very much and also intended to let the ninth prince marry the young lady as a concubine, but everything still required the wife to agree. Shenshang has always been a smart child. Shen thought about it. She pushed this matter to herself. She also wanted to ask herself if the red silk had that intention. She also liked the ninth prince very much. Since the red silk did not want to marry the prince, she would find another good man for her. After thinking about it, Tang Xiao was the only one in Tang's prince. What I am most satisfied with is that on the one hand, Tang Xiao's mother's concubine is her own sister. On the other hand, Red Silk has been close to Tang Xiao since she was a child. In addition to Tang Ziran, she has the most contact with Tang Xiao. If this matter becomes, it will be the best. She casually said, "What kind of man does Hong Silk like?"
"Of course, the literary talent is good." This is very unclear, just like when someone asks you what you like to eat, you answer that I like sweet food.
Hearing this made Su Hong a little confused, even Shen. Neither of them knew what to say in the next sentence.
Seeing the two of them thinking, the red silk continued to say, "My daughter also likes good-looking, preferably better than the seventh prince."
"Such a man..." Su Hong muttered, "Madam, the ninth prince is very handsome."
Shen nodded and said yes. He was about to speak, but was blocked back by the red silk. The red silk pretended not to hear what Su Hong had just said, and he muttered for a while over there, "It's not good for a man to be too handsome. It's best if he looks as vulgar as a scattered immortal."
Where can I find such a man? Su Hong thought that she should be literary and good-looking, and she can't be too good-looking. The best thing is that she is the best to be the same as a fairy. She is a little worried. I'm afraid she can't get married in her life under such conditions as a young lady.
After saying so much about red silk, Shen naturally understood a little. Thinking that red silk doesn't like Tang's smile, it doesn't matter. Since she doesn't like it, she will look for it slowly and always find a good one.
When the charcoal fire was extinguished, when Shen asked Su Hong to add some charcoal, the red silk used this to say that she was tired. Shen called the girl to send the red silk back, but the red silk said no. I still recognized such a few roads, so I happily took a lantern and stepped on the frosty ground all the way back to the house. .
As soon as they entered the room, Qiaoyue and Weiwei greeted him. First, they handed over a hand-warming stove, and then held themselves to sit on the soft couch. Both of them looked at themselves with an unusual smile.
The red silk material thought that the two of them must have something to do, so they let them be more straightforward.
Qiaoyue pushed slightly, and slightly arched Qiaoyue. The two of them came and again, and it was not over. Finally, Qiaoyue boldly said to the red silk, "Miss, can we go out to eat something tomorrow?"
The red silk eyes turned, "Do you want to eat or to see the second brother?"
So many things have happened these days, and I also forgot that Qiaoyue had a one-day appointment with the little brother. I was just looking for this girl to be happy, but who thought that Qiaoyue was really moved.
Look at Weiwei, "Then what are you ashamed of?"
He blushed slightly and said, "I, it's the first time I've come into contact with this man and woman, and I don't know what to do, so I don't know how to talk to the young lady."
Red silk sneered, "It's not you that Qiaoyue is in contact with men and women. Qiaoyue hasn't blushed yet, but you are so shy."
As soon as Qiao Yue heard that the red silk was talking and laughing, she knew in her heart that the red silk had agreed, and she also happily made fun of it. "People who don't know think it's you."
Weiwei was very uncomfortable with what the two said, and he was unwilling to show weakness and said, "That's what you said. I'll go on a date with that second brother alone tomorrow."
