Chapter 118 Why is it soft?
"No, absolutely not." Mother Fan quickly shook her head and refused, fearing that it would be too late and the prince would hold a grudge against her.
Madam Fan's previously cold face now wore a slightly flattering smile. She said, "Madam Pan, I have been working for the palace with all my heart and soul. The concubine even praised me for it."
"Now that it has come to Concubine Shen, is it a question?" Nanny Pan used the most gentle words and the sharpest words.
"I dare not."
Madam Fan didn't dare look at Madam Pan, and could only look at Shen Lingshu and said, "Concubine Shen, I will go and compare prices from three different stores tomorrow."
"good."
Shen Lingshu responded gently and looked at her with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Mother Fan."
"It should be."
Mother Fan wiped the unnecessary sweat off her face.
With Mother Fan in front, the rest of the managers didn't dare to have any other thoughts.
The managers in various places changed their reluctant attitude of the previous three days and enthusiastically accepted the task.
After they left, Aunt Pan smiled and imparted her experience to Shen Lingshu, and Shen Lingshu learned seriously.
Zhu Xin who was watching on the side was stunned, especially when she looked at Mrs. Fan. When she handed the account book over, her eyes were looking up to the sky!
She stuffed some silver into her pocket, but Mother Fan still refused harshly!
Now, after being scolded by Nanny Pan, he felt like an eggplant hit by frost.
After Nanny Pan left, Zhu Xin immediately spoke up: "Master, from now on, you must be like Nanny Pan and not be so soft-hearted."
Zhu Xin said happily: "The prince is so kind. With Nanny Pan, those people don't dare to bully the master anymore."
Shen Lingshu looked at her cheerful face without saying a word. She lowered her eyes and thought: If she hadn't deliberately indulged them, how could Mother Fan and others dare to ignore them when Nanny Pan arrived!
After all, she is the delicate, weak and kind-hearted Shen Lingshu. If she confronts Fan Mama and others forcefully, not only will her character be destroyed, but the prince will also easily think that she is eager for quick success and can't wait to place his own people.
Now, people like Fan’s mother dare not look down on her, and her personality has not collapsed.
satisfy.
Shen Lingshu took a sip of water and said, "Zhu Xin, when you leave the house today, ask those families about the grain prices and write them down clearly."
"yes."
Zhu Xin responded as if he had received the most sacred mission.
Shen Lingshu reminded: "Don't let Mother Fan and the others find out."
"Don't worry, Master." Zhu Xin patted her chest and promised. After she left the palace, she went to the Chen Mansion first and met Song Fanghua. After exchanging letters, she changed her clothes, went out of the small door, and went straight to more than a dozen grain shops in Kyoto.
She asked about the price of grain in every grain shop clearly and bought some of each kind of grain. By the time she returned to the palace, her bags were full.
"Master, look, I have already bought rice from more than a dozen grain houses." Zhu Xin was exhausted when she came back, and she placed all kinds of rice in front of her.
Shen Lingshu looked at the prices that were all prepared properly, and she said, "You've worked hard, go back to the house and rest."
"Liusi, pack these rice separately and mark them." Shen Lingshu instructed.
Front yard, study.
Nanny Pan reported on Shen Lingshu's learning progress and said, "Concubine Shen is smart, quick to learn, humble and eager to learn, but..."
Nanny Pan paused and said hesitantly, "He's become a little gentler, a little softer, and a little kinder."
After she finished speaking, Madam Pan told the story of Madam Fan.
Chu Cong's expression darkened, and he said, "How could she doubt the master's identity?"
"Qingwu, Ci, give Mother Fan ten slaps on the face."
Chu Cong gave the order, stood up and walked towards Youlan Courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Chu Cong heard cheerful laughter. In the renovated west wing, he stood at the gate of the courtyard and could vaguely see the cheerful shadow from the window.
"An An, Bei Bei, look, does mommy look like a little rabbit?"
Shen Lingshu's cheerful voice came, and on the wall, she stretched out her fingers to draw the shape of a rabbit, and the shadow of it jumping back and forth made people feel happy even if no one was looking at it.
Chu Cong raised his hand, signaling Zhu Xin and Liu Si not to report. When he entered the room, he saw Shen Lingshu humming a tune in a small carpeted corner, while An An and Bei Bei were laughing very happily.
The giggling sounds of An An and Bei Bei, who looked exactly the same, made Chu Cong want to present all the good things to these sisters.
"Little tiger, come and eat the baby!"
Shen Lingshu turned into a little tiger again and walked towards the two sisters. An An and Bei Bei laughed out loud with joy.
Chu Cong stood aside. On weekdays, he had to go to court and work. When he came back at night, An An and Bei Bei were either asleep or breastfeeding. They were rarely awake.
At this moment, Chu Cong looked at Shen Lingshu who was teasing the two sisters in a funny way. The warm yellow candlelight fell, and her voice was softer than usual. She seemed to exude an indescribable charm.
She was so focused on playing with her daughter that she didn't notice that she was stepping on her skirt. She fell down and fell to the side.
"Ouch."
Shen Lingshu exclaimed, thinking, this is padded, it shouldn’t hurt, right?
"Hmm? Why is it still soft?"
Shen Lingshu didn't notice that she had fallen to the ground. She only felt a warm body behind her and a muffled groan in her ears.
"Your Majesty?"
Shen Lingshu exclaimed, watching her sleep with Chu Cong as a pillow, and climbed up using her hands and feet. The more anxious she was, the harder it was to do this action.
Instead of getting up, she fell on him again.
Shen Lingshu blushed and said, "Your Majesty, I really didn't mean it. Do you believe it?"
"What do you think?"
Chu Cong did not answer but asked instead. If it were not for his two daughters watching beside him, he would have wanted to love the person well at this moment. He stood up, helped Shen Lingshu up as well, and said, "You guys go out."
Zhuxin and Liusi ran very fast.
"Your Highness, look, An An Bei Bei will look over here when she hears the drum beats."
Shen Lingshu picked up the specially made small drum and shook it. An An and Bei Bei stared at the drum in her hand with the same eyes. Wherever her drum was shaken, the two children looked there.
"Counting the days, they are now seventy days old." Chu Cong touched his two daughters' hands. They were still small, but they had grown a lot bigger than when they were just born.
Chu Cong quietly moved the face, which was smaller than a palm and softer than cotton.
"Yeah, time flies by so fast."
Shen Lingshu felt that if there were no conspiracies and plots in the palace's backyard, spending every day with her two daughters would be her happiest days!
Born as an orphan, she finally has a blood-related family.
Unlike her mother and brother, who could only see each other after a long time, she could see the family she had worked so hard to give birth to every day and night.
"Ling Shu."
Chu Cong thought for a moment and said, "You are the housekeeper now, you can ask your mother to come to the mansion to see the child."
