Wear It with Space

Since the appointment of the marriage, Shen Ling has been embroidered in the room honestly by Aunt Zhou's dowry.

Later, Mrs. Lu was afraid of boring Shen Ling, so she proposed to take her to Lingyun Temple to offer incense, and prayed that the Bodhisattva would bless Shen Ling's marriage to go smoothly.

Shen Ling felt that Madam Lu and Aunt Zhou could not see anything on the surface, but in fact, there was still some worry inside that Xie Qing would follow Xie Xuan.

Naturally, she would not brush her aunt's kindness. The mother and daughter chose an auspicious day and rode in a carriage to Lingyun Temple on the outskirts.

The two of them had just set off, and the old lady Dingbeihou who had heard the news immediately called her second son over.

"Didn't you always complain about your mother coming to propose marriage without your consent, haven't you even seen the girl?" Mrs. Xie looked at her son, "The people below said that Mrs. Lu took the girl Lu to Lingyun Temple for incense. , Do you want to come and see with me." Although it was in a questioning tone, there was an unquestionable expression on his face.

Xie Qing knew that as long as he said nothing, there would be no quiet life in the next few days. Anyway, he wanted to know what his fiancée looked like, so he nodded slowly: "Well, everything is up to my mother."

Mrs. Xie smiled and immediately ordered someone to prepare the car.

Lingyun Temple is a former royal temple. Although it has experienced wars, most of the buildings still remain. The remaining ninth floor, eighteen pavilions, and seventy-two halls are basically intact.

When Shen Ling and Madam Lu had just finished worshipping the Buddhas in the Palace of the Heavenly Kings, a confidant beside Madam Lu stepped forward and said a few words.

Madam Lu couldn't help but glanced at Shen Ling, and said lightly: "I see."

Shen Ling didn't know what they were talking about. It wasn't until after worshiping the Buddhas in the three main halls and coming out of the hall to see Mrs. Xie and a young man behind her, she realized that a trace of her white face could not help but rise. Blushing, standing behind Madam Lu with his head down.

Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Xie exchanged a few words, and ordered Shen Ling to come out to see him. Shen Ling bowed his head slightly and bowed to the two of them, behaving generously and gracefully, and looked demure.

For the first time, Xie Qing felt that her mother's vision was good. The girl in front of her looked only fourteen or five years old, with a bright complexion and delicate eyebrows, and she was a beautiful embryo. And the etiquette is very good, the posture is elegant, and the advance and retreat are proper.

Shen Ling could feel the gaze that fell on her body after a long time before closing it back. Although she was very curious about what Xie Qing looked like that Lu Yuan could not forget, but in the presence of strangers, in order to maintain everyone's beauty. Some look, but don't look up.

When Mrs. Xie was talking with Mrs. Lu, she kept looking at Shen Ling. She glanced at Shen Ling up and down with a critical gaze, and found that she had never raised her head to look at Xie Qing, only slightly satisfied. He nodded, said goodbye to Mrs. Lu after a few more words.

Madam Lu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after their mother and son had left. This old lady Xie didn't know if it was being held up too high by the servants in the house. She always spoke with a superior attitude.

People used to seldom come and go, but I don’t think it is. Today I don’t know if Mrs. Xie has been married because she doesn’t need to cover it up. It is obvious that she has a strong personality.

Madam Lu glanced at Shen Ling. With such a strong mother-in-law, she wondered if Sister Yuan's life would be better in the future.

After Shen Ling experienced so many worlds, she immediately saw that Madam Lu looked at her with something wrong, and asked, "Why does my mother look at me like this?"

Madam Lu couldn't think that Shen Ling was so sensitive, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing. I just think that your future mother-in-law is a bit..."

I'm afraid I think Mrs. Xie is a bit strong! Although Shen Ling kept his head down, the conversation between the two of them listened to her word-for-word. In her opinion, Mrs. Xie was indeed a bit strong, but the city was not deep. Such a person can still find a way to deal with it. .

What Shen Ling was most afraid of was the kind of mother-in-law who was very deep in the city. Although she laughed at you on the face, she seemed kind, but in private, she could stumble you. That kind of mother-in-law is the most terrible.

But this truth is not easy to tell Madam Lu, so she just smiled lightly and said nothing.

Madame Lu thought she was out of shyness, so she stopped mentioning this topic, and prepared a car to go home.

When the group of people came out of Lingyun Temple and passed by Chengtian Street, Mrs. Lu ordered the coachman to stop and ordered the maids to buy some dim sum at Xu Ji Dim Sum.

Shen Ling sat in the car for a long time, and wanted to go down and move her body, so she got out of the car behind the maids.

It was exactly in the afternoon when Xu Ji's dim sum shop had the least passenger flow in the day. Shen Ling entered the lobby without a single customer in it, just so she could choose the dim sum in the store calmly.

The dude stood five steps away from Shen Ling, packing up the snacks she had chosen one by one.

After Shen Ling had picked it up, when the buddy was about to take it to checkout, another customer came to the shop.

Lai Ren was around 27 or 18 years old, and there was an aura that no strangers should get close all over his body. He exuded a high-cold temperament. This temperament makes it easy to overlook his appearance, even though he is in Shenling. It looks pretty handsome.

After he entered the shop, it was obviously the first time he came here and didn’t know which snacks to buy. He saw that the man was checking out Shen Ling with a few packaged snacks, and he said, “Man, what did this little girl buy? Dim sum, give me a catty for everything."

Shen Ling couldn't help but glanced up at the man, but just hit a pair of unhappy eyes. Seeing Shen Ling looking over, he moved those eyes a little, looking very cold.

The guy's hands and feet were very fast, and he packed the snacks he wanted in a few strokes. As soon as Shen Ling's front foot left the shop, the man's back foot came out.

When Shen Ling got on the car, Yu Guang just caught a glimpse of the man riding a horse with shiny black hair, flicked the rein, and the horse took him away.

Shen Ling sat in the carriage and was still thinking about the dark horse that the man was riding. She spent so long in Beiqi. Not only did she practice riding to perfection, she also learned a lot about Xiangma's skills. The black horse looked only slightly brighter than the ordinary horse's hair, but it was a rare thousand-mile horse.

To be able to ride such a Maxima, the identity of the owner must not be simple.

From this, Shen Ling thought of the queen dowager he had reached before, and couldn't help but look towards the Forbidden City to the north, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of remembrance in her heart.

But after experiencing so many worlds, Shen Ling already had a corresponding countermeasure. She closed her eyes and meditated for a while, and when she opened her eyes, she no longer felt the previous worries. The past has passed, and it is important to live your life well now.

When he returned to the mansion, the feeling of remembrance caused by the man had completely dissipated. Shen Ling also quickly left the man behind.

The next day, Aunt Zhou came to supervise Shen Ling's needlework as usual.

After the two married couples, the marriage date was set in the early spring time two years later.

In Shen Ling's view, the day is still very early. But Aunt Zhou felt that her daughter was a concubine, and she had to work **** these details so as not to cause Ding Beihou's contempt.

Therefore, the patterns on the wedding dress she chose for Shen Ling are extremely complicated. Shen Ling has Liuli and Yingluo to help, and it feels cumbersome to embroider.

In addition, she had to prepare ten pairs of embroidered shoes and two clothes for Mrs. Xie. Fortunately, Dingbeihou Mansion only has a female family like Mrs. Xie. Otherwise, he would add veils and purses for the sister-in-law or sister-in-law, I am afraid that Shen Ling will really have to embroider it for a long time.

When she embroidered her dowry, Mrs. Lu was afraid of boring her, and secondly, she deliberately taught her the housekeeper, so she called her from time to time when she was dealing with the affairs of the palace.

Shen Ling was watching, and she felt that Mrs. Lu did have a hand when dealing with internal house affairs, but she was not very interested in the business of the shops outside, and handed over all the shops and villages under the name of Jinfenghou to the mansion. The housekeeper handles it.

Shen Ling, because Jinfeng Hou had promised, would accompany her to a shop and a farm when she got married, so she couldn't help but pay attention to these two items.

Seeing that she was interested, Mrs. Lu called the housekeeper's wife and asked Shen Ling to ask her if she would not.

Shen Ling took this opportunity to "learn" how to manage shops and farms. With her experience, she soon discovered that the butler had made a fake on the account books, and every year at least a few hundred taels of silver disappeared. Shen Ling didn't say a word, but every time he found that there was a problem with the account book, he smiled slightly at the housekeeper's daughter-in-law, and that smile contained a lot of content.

She herself knows that this kind of thing is not only in their residence, but in Beppu, and she can't guarantee that the people who manage the shops and farms are not doing anything. As long as it doesn't make too much noise, the host will close one eye.

Therefore, Shen Ling knew that there was a problem with the account book and that the store could have a better management method. She did not say that, especially she refused to let the store and the farm be better than the housekeeper when she was learning to manage. After all, this mansion is headed by Mrs. Lu, and if you really do that, you will just slap her in the face. A concubine is more capable than the wife in charge, and it doesn't sound good to say that.

However, if she doesn't say that it is broken, it doesn't mean she doesn't know. When the wife of the housekeeper talks to her husband, she can't help but feel a little afraid.

For this reason, when Madam Lu chose Shen Ling's shops and farms, he kept suggesting that Mrs. Lu chose the shops and farms he had selected, which were the ones that made the most profit. He was really afraid of Shen Ling, after all, he held the handle in other people's hands.
