Chapter 62
When Shen Ti came out of the clean room, Yin Shi had also washed her face and rinsed her mouth.
She glanced over, Shen Ti held back her laughter, walked to the second room, sat on the couch, and took the tea handed over by the maid.
Yin Shi also followed him out, sat on the couch, and asked him: "Why are you back so early today? Where are my brother and the others?"
Shen Ti took a sip of tea: "Uncles, this afternoon I have my own arrangements, so I don’t need to worry about them.”
The eldest brother has lived in the capital for several years, but this is the first time for both cousins to come to the capital. What arrangements are there without Shen Ti accompanying you?
Or...is there any arrangement that you don't want Shen Ti, your brother-in-law, to follow?
Yin Shi understood it as soon as he thought about it, suddenly.
Raising her eyes, she saw Shen Ti looking at her with a tea cup in hand.
Yin Shi raised his eyebrows.
Shen Ti gently opened the tea leaves with the lid, but looked at Yin Shi.
"Sister, you..." he said, "you really know a lot."
His voice was soft and slow, but it could put pressure on people.
Even though he is still so young, he was born as a noble son, a master, and a superior. He was raised by the environment and knew how to put pressure on others since he was a child.
Yin Shi chuckled.
"Everything is already there. When you hear, see, and think about it, you will naturally understand it." She said, "Of course, we women are not like you men who can go out freely. We see and hear much more than we do, so we appear to be He knows a lot more than us."
"In fact, even a woman can understand everything she needs to know if she wants to see, listen, and think."
"Brothers are the ones at home. Look like this, going in and out of that kind of place, I’m so old, I can’t be like the following "My little sisters and nieces who are not as good as hairpins don't understand anything."
"Why do I want to send you away? It's naturally because you are a brother-in-law or a new brother-in-law. No matter what, it's not good." I'll be with you on my wedding day Go to a place like that."
"It's you," Yin Shi sighed, "I praised you for nothing the night before. I thought you were clean and didn't understand what you were doing. , have you been there too? ”
Shen Ti raised her eyelids.
“My sister is only a few months older than me. If it’s true, we are the same age. But my sister always looks down on me. She also doesn’t think about it. No matter how young I am, I am still an official. . I have to deal with more social events and meetings than my uncles and brothers."
Yin Shi suddenly realized.
It does feel like being awakened. Because of the difference in time and space, she always had the illusion that Shen Ti entered the Hanlin Academy to "go to college" after winning the lottery.
It was also because of his age that although she knew it intellectually, she always subconsciously treated him as a student.
But in fact, Shen Ti is already an official.
Although his rank is still low and he wears a green robe, if we want to make an analogy, he is equivalent to a centrally selected student in another time and space, with his roots upright and young. He is taking the best career path, which is enviable.
But since you are an official, you have entered the officialdom. What's the officialdom like? From ancient times to the present, even in different time and space, it is the same.
Yin Shi defended herself very seriously: "I have never underestimated you in terms of knowledge and official career."
Shen Ti stared at her.
So in what way did she despise him?
…Male and female, right?
It makes people feel itchy.
"No, Jiuyun." Yin Shi knelt down and sat up, leaning forward on the couch, approaching Shen Ti, "Why are you so hostile to me?"
Shen Ti Pause.
Yin Shi leaned forward again and asked clearly, "Have you forgotten that we are not a real couple?"
Shen Ti met her eyes.
Is she putting pressure on him by approaching him like this?
Shen Ti turned her head to drink tea without facing her directly, and said: "There is no hostility or hostility, sister, don't be stupid..."
Yin Shi interrupted him: "Fool, I'm on the same side as you!"
Shen Ti turned back to look at her.
She sat back, smiling and angry: "I told you back then in Donglin Temple that I can cooperate with you in everything, and you and Feng will definitely get married, and I will be your legal wife. In the name of my wife, I will also fulfill my duties as a wife.”
“There is nothing I can’t do these days. Okay, just tell me, don't do this to me." Yin Shi said with grievance in his eyes, "Before I came here from Huaixi, I imagined that the two of us would work together and discuss things. It was so imaginative at that time."
Shen Ti stared at her while holding the tea.
After a while, he put down the tea cup and rubbed his forehead: "Speak carefully."
If you see through it, you won’t fall for this trick.
Yin Shi was very innocent: "You did that to me, I can only do this to you."
"What did I do to my sister?" Shen Ti said, "I asked myself, I have never lost my love for my sister." It's too polite."
Shen Ti admitted that he was a little emotional just now, but it was nothing serious. It was not that he was "bad" to her.
“You can’t treat me like you just did.”
"What kind?"
"Like this-"
Yin Shi turned his face downward slightly, then raised his eyes and looked straight ahead.
“That’s it, see?”
It is called the Kubrick gaze in film and television works.
When written in novels, it is usually written as "raising one's eyelids".
This way of looking at people can put pressure on people psychologically.
"..." Shen Ti, "Did I?"
"You don't admit it, right?"
"Okay." Shen Ti admitted it.
Although he didn't know what Kubrick meant by raising his eyelids, he certainly knew how much pressure talking to someone like this would put on the other person.
I actually used it on Yin Shi, which I shouldn’t think about.
"I don't do that, and you don't do that either." He said.
He didn't want to see her fake look just now.
Yin Shi felt that some things were worth pondering: "But don't you just want me to be like this?"
The purpose of putting pressure on people is not to make them submissive.
"I came all the way to your home in the capital. If you don't treat me well, show me how bad you are." She said, "When my brothers leave, who can support me?"
“No, actually they won’t support me here.”< br>
"That is to say, you are a newlywed, and they can't take you with them today. In the future, I'm afraid they will be able to happily eat flowers and wine with you."
"How much the Yin family looks forward to this. You must also know about marriage. ”
"I married into your family because I couldn't rely on anyone."
"Only you."
"I trust you and have expectations for you, so I don't stand in front of you. If you don't pretend to hide it, you may be unhappy. "So, if you want to do something to me." I can do what you want with your majesty.”
“It’s nothing more than being gentle, courteous and thrifty in front of you.”
“I’ve been doing this for eighteen years. , it won’t be difficult for me to continue living like this for the rest of my life.”
Yin Shi smiled: "What do you think? Otherwise, I will start acting for you now?"
Shen Ti's eyes kept falling on the couch table.
When she finished speaking, he raised his eyes: "It was my fault just now. I won't be like that again, and you shouldn't be like that either."
I feel uncomfortable, and I want Yin Shi to put on a show in front of him. He will really feel uncomfortable if he stays down.
He still liked her irritating look.
And what she just said is true. She got married and had no support at all.
She came here just for him.
Three high fives in Donglin Temple, how could I forget my original intention at that time.
How could you betray her trust?
Yin Shi stared at him: "Then, won't you embarrass me in the future?"
"No." Shen Ti's neck turned red, a little ashamed.
His neck turned red, and Yin Shi believed that he was sincere. She became happy: "Zhiyun, I like that you are magnanimous, dare to admit it, and can be considerate of others."
"This sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult to do. Just dare to admit this, Many people simply can't do it, let alone think about others. It's hard for them."
How can she say "like" in front of others so easily? man.
Shen Ti began to feel the temperature on her neck.
When he was eighteen years old, few people could make his neck warm anymore.
The last two times were both Yin Shi.
"Ahem..." He turned away and was about to speak when a voice of green smoke suddenly sounded outside the door: "Hanlin, we found it."
Great.
Shen Ti immediately got off the donkey and said, "Bring it in."
Yin Shi looked over, the door opened, and Lu Yan came in holding a piano and handed it to Shen Ti.
Shen Ti sat cross-legged, put the piano on her knees, played with it a few times, and asked while tuning the strings: "Sister, I think you have also learned the piano. I see there is a piano in your dowry list, why is it not there? I saw you put it out? Haven’t you finished packing the cages yet?”
Now it’s Yin Shi’s turn to “cough”.
Because when I was cleaning up the day before yesterday, I packed up the piano. Kui'er asked directly: "Do you still want to show off this trouble?"
What if some female elder comes and sees it and forces her to perform on the spot or something? Yin Shi would not dig such a hole for himself, and waved his hand decisively: "Whoever plays it, put it in the warehouse."
It should be hanging on the wall of the warehouse now.
“I’m just a lookalike, and I don’t even play, so there’s no need to show off.” Yin Shi was thick-skinned and dared to admit, “If my relatives and elders come and see me, they insist on letting me play a song. It would be embarrassing if I don’t play. Play it...it might embarrass you even more."
Shen Ti turned her face away.
His neck is no longer red now, and has faded back to a fair and clean complexion.
Yin Shi was speechless: "If you want to laugh, just laugh. Not everyone has musical finesse... musical talent."
The skill of nourishing qi is not needed at this moment. People need at least a place where they can relax completely, and someone who doesn't have to stand in front of them.
In Shen Ti’s memory, that person a few years ago was Mrs. Shen.
But as he grew older, returned from studying abroad for several years, had conflicts with his parents, etc... He could no longer return to his previous state in front of Mrs. Shen.
In these days, Yin Shi broke his Qi-nurturing skills several times. Now, he really doesn't feel the need to hold it in front of her.
Turning back, sure enough, the corner of his mouth was still curled up.
Because Yin Shi looks sweet and soft, but in fact he has a tough mind and is a very difficult person to deal with. Shen Ti once felt that she was being suppressed by her, which was why she had the emotional rebound today.
Who would have thought that she, a person who taught herself "The Great Music of Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang", would be so frustrated in learning the piano.
It’s really funny.
"What's going on?" Shen Ti asked, "Is it the problem, sir? Is it the problem with Qin? Or...um..."
Or is it just a human being?
Yin Shi sighed: "Don't let a villain succeed."
If you don't succeed now, wait until when.
Shen Ti smiled even more happily.
Okay. Yin Shi admitted: “Not very good.”
I am not a musical person in the first place, and my husband’s teaching methods are very dogmatic and do not arouse my interest.
The girls' school in the Yin family is very loose. They spend three days fishing and two days drying nets, and the adults don't care much about it. This is a place for girls to spend time.
The sisters like to go there, mainly because it is a place where everyone gathers.
“To what extent have you learned?” Shen Ti asked.
Yin Shi said: "I know the basic fingering. I can only play one song, "The Resentment of the Concubine of Hunan", and I can't remember it all now. Nothing else. I'm really not interested in this. ”
If someone else plays something nice, she will definitely be happy to listen to it. But I wasn’t really good at playing, couldn’t find any fun, and had no one to supervise me, so I gave up.
In these ancient times, listening to music has become inconvenient. You have to cultivate musicians. The Yin family does have it, but that's the treatment of gentlemen, mainly banquets and hospitality. Girls are not allowed to have contact with musicians at home.
Because although the prostitutes are different, they have the same thing.
Speaking of which, Yin Shi hasn’t heard any music for a long time.
Especially in small places, one of the characteristics of ancient times is silence.
"Let me teach you." Shen Ti suggested.
"No need." Yin Shi wanted to refuse.
"Qin and flowers, poems and paintings, books and tea, have never been separated from each other. My sister has the heart to grow flowers, and I don't believe you don't have the intention to tune the piano." He said, "When my mother came to the capital, She has never even touched the piano. She was taught it by her father, and now she is as good at it as anyone else.”
Indeed, in the second room where Mrs. Shen lived, Yin Shi saw the piano table and the piano. It seems to have become part of Mrs. Shen's daily life.
Yin Shi just didn’t expect that Mrs. Shen had never learned the piano before getting married.
But think about it, that was almost twenty years ago. At that time, the Yin family was just a family of small businessmen. It was already a big deal for girls to be able to read, but they were probably not able to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
After twenty years of development, it was only in Yin Shi's generation that she began to become a pampered rich girl and had the conditions to learn the piano.
"My mother can learn well, but I don't believe that my sister can't. Your surname is Yin." Shen Ti said, "Sister, why don't you believe me for once, and I will be your teacher."
"How about it? ”
