Chapter Twenty-Five: Study Talk


When Shen Yinqiu woke up from a nap, night had fallen.

The cold wind was whistling outside the house and the temperature dropped again and again.

It's early winter.

In order to keep warm at night, everyone starts to burn a little charcoal in the corner of the room.

Shen Yinqiu just came back and was not assigned these daily quotas.

Not only now, but also before, she paid for daily expenses herself. this is unreasonable The more Shen Yinqiu thought about it, the clearer he became.

He fumbled to sit up from the bed.

Because his movements were gentle, he did not disturb the Qianguang Qianyun outside the bed tent.

She listened to Qian Guang and Qian Yun whispering, nothing more than talking about how excessive the Shen family was.

After listening for a while, he found it boring and coughed: "Qianyun, what time is it now?"

Qian Guang and Qian Yun hula put down the nühong in their hands, stood up and moved forward to lift the bed curtains, "Master, you are awake, it is Xu time."

They said and put on the master's clothes at the same time.

When they were about to put on boots for Shen Yinqiu, Shen Yinqiu moved her feet to avoid it and said: "No need to put on shoes.

I don't want to go to the ground.

Is there anything to eat?"

Liuluoyuan does not have a small kitchen, so their meals usually have to be prepared in the large kitchen and they have to wait for a while.

Qianguang and Qianyun had already brought dinner from the kitchen in advance.

Because they had the cook who gave them money before, they didn't get any trouble.

On the contrary, they were quite popular with the cook.

This is probably the only person in the Shen family who is happy to see them.

Qian Guang put the shoes aside and said softly: "Master, what do you want to eat?

Tonight's dishes are Qibao Ding, baby greens, and braised chicken with mushrooms.

If you don't like it, there are still some ingredients in the kitchen."

As he said this, the three of them were all stunned.

In the past, Qian Shui was responsible for this.

The candlelight burned brighter and brighter, stretching the shadows behind Qianguang and the others.

After a brief silence, Qianyun wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a forced smile: "Miss, what do you want to eat?

The slave will cook it for you.

Do you want some porridge?"

" Shen Yinqiu shook his head: "I don't drink porridge."

He paused and said, "Qian Shui has already been sent back."

"Well, he has been buried."

Qianguang and Qianyun looked at each other and told each other not to mention this matter again.

"By the way, miss, the old lady sent someone to send three thousand taels and asked the miss to take good care of her injuries."

Qian Guang changed the subject.

Shen Yinqiu's depression dissipated a bit, "Who sent it when?"

"He was a young boy running errands.

He seemed to be in a hurry.

After explaining, he left without waiting for the slave to ask any more questions."

While talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Miss, I've invited you."

Liu Da reported respectfully outside the door.

Hearing this, Shen Yinqiu thought for a moment, today is not a holiday, why would he come back?

Thinking of having to deal with people again, she became a little impatient and said, "Qianyun, please help me put on my shoes.

I'll have a meal when I get back."

Qianguang Qianyun was murmuring in her heart.

Could it be that she hadn't had enough trouble during the day and now she is still having trouble?

The two of them quickly prepared their master and went out.

Qianguang held a lantern for lighting in one hand and supported Shen Yinqiu with the other, walking slowly, paying attention to his steps.

As soon as she walked out of the courtyard, there was a maid waiting with a lantern.

When she saw Shen Yinqiu, she bowed and said, "My servant Caiyu has met the Second Miss.

Second Miss, please come to the study."

Shen Yinqiu nodded and followed her, wondering in her heart what her cheap father in the study was going to tell her.

She was wondering all the way.

Could it be that the old lady had complained to him?

If even he forced her to admit the unfounded stigma, then this She really doesn't want to stay in the Shen family anymore In fact, what the old lady and Mrs.

Zhang meant at the beginning was to make her admit that she had run away without permission and that nothing bad happened to her.

In this way, her innocence could be preserved, but she was also afraid that she would not be treated well by others.

Then for some reason, he suddenly wanted her to admit that she was not perfect, and her face changed so quickly that it was unpredictable.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Qianguang Qianyun, who was supporting her, stopped.

The maid Caiyu who was leading the way knocked on the door and said, "Master, the second lady is here."

"Come in."

An emotionless voice came, and Shen Yinqiu secretly took a deep breath.

This was the first time she was alone with her cheap father since the Shen family.

His voice was just like the way he looked at people.

Caiyu opened the door and stepped aside to let Shen Yinqiu in.

Qianguang hesitated for a few seconds, wondering whether he should follow her in, but Shen Yinqiu grabbed her hand and said, "How can I leave if you don't help me in?"

Qian Guang looked at her master who had a calm face, wondering how he knew her thoughts, but without delay, she stepped into the study.

Qian Guang and Qian Yun lowered their heads and saluted Shen Linru who was sitting in front of the desk.

Shen Yinqiu couldn't see anything.

He shouted that he had seen his father and then stood blankly waiting to be questioned.

Shen Linru looked sharply at the second daughter, whom he had never gotten to know seriously.

Back then, he and Ms.

Liu recognized each other at first glance, and walked together regardless of everyone's opposition and the ridicule of outsiders.

In these years, I only got this girl.

In order to show the difference from other concubines, the eldest daughter used Jinqiu, so she took Yinqiu.

However, this daughter was born to be at odds with the Shen family.

Since her birth, everything has not gone well, and there has been no peace in the house.

So when the old lady of the Liu family came to pick her up in person, he was relieved.

Haven't seen him since eleven years.

When we meet again, this daughter seems to have been raised to be very bold.

Shen Yinqiu stood upright with her back straight against the inexplicable feeling of oppression.

Shen Linru didn't speak and she didn't speak either, as if they were secretly competing.

Whoever spoke first would lose.

Finally, after Shen Linru looked at her, she looked into Shen Yinqiu's eyes and said, "I heard that you are blind."

"Um."

Hearing this answer, Shen Linru was a little choked up.

It was so short that he didn't even mention the word father.

He grimaced, then remembered that the daughter could not be seen, so he could only relax and said, "What's going on?"

"A few days after Zhuangzi was robbed by thieves, two groups of men were fighting outside the door.

Although we didn't know who they were, we began to escape overnight for safety.

There was an accident halfway, and the carriage fell down the road.

He died.

There was a maid and two bodyguards, and everyone was injured.

The eyes were injured at that time."

Shen Yinqiu pursed his lips and decided to answer honestly.

Maybe he would help find out who they were.

When Shen Linru heard this, he frowned deeply.

He often went to the county government office some time ago, but he heard a lot of clues.

There were a lot of blood stains in front of the door, and Zhuangzi was seriously damaged.

The question is, who are those people and why do they want to find a concubine who just returned to Beijing?

He filtered through the list of officials he had no dealings with in his mind, but still found no suspicious person.

Forget it if she was a legitimate daughter, who would care about a concubine and bother her like this.

Although Shen Linru didn't care about Shen Yinqiu in her heart, she still showed the care that a father should have and asked in a deep voice, "Can I see the doctor and see if I can cure it?"

"I've seen it, and it's said that it can be cured in three to five years and in three to five months."

Shen Lingru hummed, thinking that if she could be cured, she would still get married.

Of course, if she can't get married and be raised in the house, he won't lack her share of food.

The two fathers and daughters had nothing to say again.

Finally, Shen Linru reminded: "You didn't grow up in the house and are unfamiliar with everyone.

My father understands, but the old lady is an elder.

No matter what, you can't be so rude.

Let people see you."

What a joke, your grandmother’s face doesn’t look good either.”

Shen Yinqiu still had no expression on his face and said with a sigh: "I know."

Just when Shen Linru was about to let her go back to rest, Shen Yinqiu said: "My daughter doesn't want to make the old lady angry, but since her daughter came home, the aunt's mother smiled secretly, and the concubine conspired to frame her.

The old lady is biased in her heart.

If the daughter doesn't Be more self-reliant.

Wouldn't it be a matter of your character to admit those things that were not true and be wronged?

I'm sorry, but my daughter cannot be silent. " Shen Linru's face darkened, "So, you want to make the whole family restless?"

"Father's words are wrong.

My daughter has a peaceful nature.

But there are people who refuse to let her go."

Shen Yinqiu was not deterred by his cold tone.

Shen Linru stared at her, with no sign of compromise on her face.

The face that somewhat resembles Mrs.

Liu, with a proud look, is similar to when he was young and vigorous.

Forget it, Shen Linru said: "I will warn your mother."

Shen Yinqiu was quite surprised that this cheap dad did not shy away from using the word warning.

However, she deliberately caused trouble for others and sighed: "Father, there is one more thing.

After my daughter's money was stolen, there was not much left, and the weather turned cold.

Can the charcoal and other daily items that should be used in the yard be returned?

Distributed to daughters according to the proportion of concubines."

Shen Linru always didn't like to get involved in these trivial matters in the back house.

Hearing this, he said unhappily: "Although you are both a concubine, your status is higher than that of your sisters.

There is no need for a good division.

I will follow the division of your concubine."

"What to do" Shen Yinqiu was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Father, from the time my daughter entered the house until now, she has paid all the expenses by herself.

She has never had any money, and she has prepared her own food."

Shen Linru picked up the book and slapped it on the desk, making a muffled sound.

She seemed to be very angry.

She didn't believe it: "Your mother didn't give you a special case in your house."

Before Shen Yinqiu could answer, he said coldly: " Father knows, please go back before it gets dark and I will give you an explanation."

Shen Yinqiu suddenly became curious about that explanation, but thought that this cheap dad only asked how she was injured, but did not care about how she was saved.

It was probably just a show of probing her truth.

After all, I still don’t care.

She stood up and blessed herself, said yes, turned around and left.

The way back was even quieter than when it came.

Qianguang held a lantern and carefully illuminated his feet.

There was a lantern hanging not far away in the corridor, and the red light was eye-catching.

The night wind was blowing slowly, bringing with it bursts of chill.

The remaining leaves made a rustling sound, and the carefully trimmed potted plants just looked like they were showing off their claws.

Qianyun tightened his collar for his master and said, "Miss, I specially asked you to come here just to care about your health."

"Qianyun, don't be stupid.

If you really cared about me, it wouldn't have been me going blindly in the cold wind, but him coming to Liuluoyuan."

Shen Yinqiu curled his lips and said softly.

There is no hint of sadness but full of self-mockery
