Mrs. Xu went home and took a dose of medicine, which was very effective. Not only did she feel much lighter, she was also more energetic. Her complexion, which was originally sallow due to illness, also improved a lot.
Before lunch, looking at the beautiful sunshine outside, Mrs. Xu actually became interested and let Hanqiao help her go for a walk in the back garden. When she came back, she had a slight blush on her face, which was not noticeable at first glance. is a patient.
This made Xu feel much better, and she even started to personally choose the clothes for attending the fertility ceremony tomorrow.
Hanqiao was so happy that she opened the box and took out all Kaichun'er's newly made clothes and spread them all over the room for Mrs. Xu to choose from. She kept saying, "Mrs. Tong is worthy of being able to save even a dying person." The miracle doctor came back, and my wife just took a dose of medicine, and it looked like she was completely cured."
Xu asked in a good mood: "I heard that the master has handed over the housekeeper's affairs to Shen Tianshu?"
Hanqiao immediately became nervous after hearing this, and said cautiously: "Master is saying that the eldest girl is not young anymore, and it is time for her to learn to manage the general affairs. But when the wife recovers from the illness, the power of the housekeeper will naturally be returned to the wife. .”
"Let her be proud for a few days first, and wait until the Flower Festival is over." Mrs. Xu's health improved at this time, and her mood also improved a lot. She weighed the clothes on her body and said, "The most important thing for me now is Take good care of yourself, there is no need to compete with her for the moment."
"It's best if Madam thinks this way!" Hanqiao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She also thought about the account book and hesitated whether she should mention it to Mrs. Xu.
But then I thought about the news from Mrs. Yan that Shen Tianshu only asked someone to copy the expenses for a few days of last year's Flower Festival, and quickly sent someone to send the ledger back.
Hanqiao accompanies Xu to check the accounts every year and knows how thick the account books are over the course of a year. According to the time Lady Yan said, Shen Tianshu would never have the opportunity to review the script.
Thinking of this, Hanqiao subconsciously touched the purse at her waist.
The five taels of silver sent by Mrs. Yan are still heavy in her purse.
Thinking about Mrs. Xu's recent moodiness and tomorrow's fertility ceremony, if her good mood and state are ruined by just a few words from me, I will never forgive her lightly.
Hanqiao ran through many thoughts quickly in her mind, and finally decided to pretend that nothing had happened and continued to accompany Xu to choose clothes with a smile.
The Xu family was very generous to Shen Tianshu's temporary accountant, but Shen Yunyao was so angry that her head was smoking.
"Why did you call back my note? Where's Madam Yan? If you ask her to come over, I'd like to ask her face to face."
Seeing the money slip she was given back, Shen Yunyao became furious at the little maid who came to deliver the message.
"Second Miss, please calm down. Now the eldest daughter is in charge of the back house, and the eldest daughter has the final say on how to withdraw money. We ladies have no control over it!"
Shen Yunyao colluded with outsiders to kidnap herself and Shen Yunhui. Even though the maid who followed them had been transferred away by the Xu family, this matter still spread like wildfire in the Shen family.
So the little maids all looked trembling when they saw Shen Yunyao.
"I bought jewelry for the Flower Festival last year, why can't I do it this year?" Shen Yunyao had a good memory and was not fooled by the little maid.
The little maid was so frightened that she almost cried. She even choked up and said, "Hey, back to the second girl, the eldest girl said, you, you are still in the period of confinement and cannot go out for an outing to participate in the Flower Festival. So, so, There’s no need to buy any jewelry…”
The little maid stumbled when she spoke, but the meaning she expressed was still very clear.
Shen Yunyao was so angry that she trembled all over and walked out, preparing to go to Shen Tianshu to argue.
He Yu, the personal maid who was newly promoted by the Xu family, quickly stopped her and advised her earnestly: "Girl, please don't be impulsive, please think twice!
"The master said last time that he would send the girl back to her hometown when her illness is cured. Now Mrs. Tong is finally back. She just took a dose of medicine and her health is much better. Today she can walk around the yard.
"If you continue to conflict with the eldest girl now, if you annoy the master again, even the wife's intercession may not be of any use.
"Good girl, I know you are wronged, but let's bear with it for now!"
Shen Yunyao has been lectured by Shen Zhonglei one after another recently, saying that she is not afraid is a lie.
But after being persuaded to go back to her room, she felt particularly wronged.
Why is it that Shen Tianshu seems to be soaring now, while he himself is plummeting!
The more Shen Yunyao thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and she shouted: "Heyu, go and send a message to Jiang Lu and Cheng Yingxin, saying that in an hour I will be entertaining guests at Zuiyue Tower."
He Yu didn't expect that Shen Yunyao had finally figured out not to trouble Shen Tianshu, but she still refused to stay at home and actually wanted to go out!
"Girl, you are still grounded now. If you go out..."
"Father is busy preparing to pray for a good harvest tomorrow. He doesn't have time to see if I'm at home. Who would know if I go out quietly!"
From the time she was imprisoned years ago to now, Shen Yunyao has been going crazy due to suffocation.
It was okay that Shen Tianshu and Shen Yunhui didn't come back before, but now she had to watch her little follower turn into Shen Tianshu's follower, and see Shen Tianshu's place being crowded with people, how could she still Can sit still.
Now she didn't dare to rashly go to trouble Shen Tianshu. She would just get sulky if she stayed at home, so she might as well go out secretly to relax.
Seeing He Yu's troubled face, Shen Yunyao raised her eyebrows and asked: "What's the matter? I can't speak at all now, am I? I can't do this, and I can't do that. After all, you are a girl and I am Girl?"
He Yu was forced to go to Jiang's and Cheng's homes to deliver the message.
Shen Yunyao used money to buy the door guarding the corner door in the back garden, and successfully sneaked out of the house and went straight to Zuiyue Tower.
Mrs. Xu is a frequent customer of Zuiyue Tower, so everyone from the shopkeeper to the busboy recognizes Shen Yunyao.
The waiter saw Shen Yunyao getting out of the car at the door and immediately called the shopkeeper out to greet him.
"Miss Shen Er is a rare visitor. I haven't seen her for a while."
The shopkeeper bowed to greet her with a smile on his face, but he couldn't help but secretly thought, it seems that the rumors outside should not be believed easily. Mrs. Shen's condition must not be serious, otherwise the second girl of the Shen family would not have the leisure to go out to have a drink.
"Mrs. Shen's elegant little shop has always been kept. It has never been used by those messy people. It is also cleaned every day, so it is ready to receive the lady and the girl!"
The shopkeeper said as he led Shen Yunyao to the second floor and opened the door of a private room in the south.
Shen Yunyao was very impressed by the shopkeeper's respectful attitude. Seeing that the private room was indeed spotless, Shen Yunyao finally nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, it's done well. Let's serve a pot of tea first and wait until everyone arrives before ordering. It’s not too late for food.”
