Everyone else was a little scared, but Shen Yujia didn't.

She even stepped forward very boldly, bent down to look at the insects on the ground, and said, "Isn't my aunt afraid of this?"

The little insects on the ground were originally circling around on the ground, but they scattered and fled after Shen Yujia approached, or burrowed into the dirt, or crawled into the rockery, in short, they all disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Shen Yujia was suddenly a little lost.

Seeing someone coming, Aunt Yun was a little surprised, hurriedly withdrew her hand into her sleeve, lowered her head slightly, and said, "The concubine is idle, and she thinks these insects are interesting, so she just came to take a look." ”

Bugs crawling on the ground are strange-looking, brightly colored, and uncommon.

But Shen Fengxu has seen it.

"What kind of bugs are these, do you know?" Shen Fengxu asked with a light smile.

Aunt Yun buried her head lower: "These are glowing silkworms." ”

"Silkworms? I think I've heard of it. Shen Fengxu said meaningfully, "I heard that some people will put these insects in their purses, then bury them under the potted plants, and then give the potted plants away, I don't know, right?"

Aunt Yun's heart tightened suddenly, and she subconsciously tightened her sleeves, but her face was silent, she just smiled, and said, "Where did the girl hear about it? The concubine doesn't even know this, but the color of this silkworm is beautiful, so the concubine pays more attention to it." ”

Shen Yuning came over curiously: "Silkworms, isn't it the kind of insect that can spin silk and form cocoons? This shiny insect is also a silkworm?"

Aunt Yun lowered her head again and was silent.

Shen Baitang also asked: "I just saw that these silkworms seem to be crawling around the place pointed by my aunt, what kind of method is this?"

"Concubine...... The concubine didn't know either, and she was also curious, so she watched here for a long time. Aunt Yun's face was a little pale, as if she wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end she kept silent and lowered her head silently.

Aunt Yun has always been taciturn, and everyone is used to it.

Shen Yulou smiled and said, "Okay, it's so late, don't pester Aunt Yun to ask this and that, let Aunt Yun go back and rest early." ”

With Shen Yulou's words, Aunt Yun breathed a sigh of relief and saluted: "The concubine retires." ”

With that, he got up and left.

After Aunt Yun left, the sisters chatted and laughed for a while, but because of the twilight, they dispersed.

Shen Yujia's birthday was spent plain and warm.

............

......

Seven days later, it will be Shen Fengxu's birthday, but Shen Yan would rather not be Shen Yanping, so naturally he doesn't have those thoughts.

In the snowmelt courtyard, Shen Baitang, Shen Fengxu, Shen Yumin and Aunt Su were eating together.

Originally, Aunt Su would not come, but if Aunt Su was not there, Shen Yumin would not even be able to eat, so during this time, Aunt Su often came to visit Shen Yumin in the Snow Melting Courtyard.

Also because it is Shen Fengxu's birthday, the table is full of delicacies, such as boiled jade, rouge goose breast, sour bamboo shoot duck soup, honey-stuffed cockles, wine-stuffed steamed duck, ham stewed elbow...... When the food has already been served, it just looks sweet and delicious, causing the worms in the stomach to scream.

Shen Baitang tasted the chopsticks and was full of praise: "I don't know which chef in the kitchen has such skills, and I must reward them." ”

Shen Fengxu smiled and groaned: "Chensha, do you hear it, the second sister wants to reward you." ”

"Is it cinnabar?" Shen Baitang turned his head to look at her, smiling like a flower, "It's really ingenious." ”

"The second girl has an overreputation. "Cinnabar is gentle and humble.

Aunt Su held Shen Yumin in her arms, thoughtfully and carefully removed the bones, and then fed them to Shen Yumin. ”

Shen Feng smiled in return.

"By the way, on your birthday, everyone else has sent a lot of congratulatory gifts, right?" Shen Baitang smiled and asked.

Shen Fengxu nodded: "Yes, yes, but there are also some gold, silver, pearls and jade on the left and right, and there is nothing worth caring about." ”

A few days ago, Shen Yujia's birthday was the same. In addition to the girls in the house, there are only the girls in Beijing who usually have some friendships.

But as soon as Shen Fengxu's words fell, Qingya walked in from outside the door, holding a nanmu box in his arms.

She walked quickly to Shen Fengxu's side and said, "Girl, this is a congratulatory gift from King Ning's Mansion." ”

In a word, the chopsticks in Shen Fengxu's hand almost fell to the ground.

But her face was still calm and calm, and she said, "Well, put it there." ”

Shen Baitang was also slightly taken aback: "Ning Wangfu?!"

The birthday of the girl in the mansion is not an important day, not to mention that Shen Fengxu is only the birthday of the twelfth year old, and it is not the year of the concubine, how can the Ning Wangfu be interested in Shen Fengxu? Moreover, the Dongning Bofu has never had any friendship with the Ning Wangfu, and even if there is some friendship, it will not send a congratulatory gift to Shen Fengxu.

Qingya put the congratulatory gift on the table next to her and left the room.

Shen Baitang blinked and asked, "Why did King Ning's Mansion send a congratulatory gift?"

"This ...... I don't know. Shen Fengxu was very innocent, but he already knew it in his heart.

I think it's clear.

"The concubine thought that the eldest princess of Shunning had given an apricot flower hosta as a congratulatory gift on the birthday of the fourth girl, and she was already very decent, and she didn't want the sixth girl to get a congratulatory gift from Ning Wangfu. Aunt Su smiled, "With the congratulatory gift from King Ning's Mansion, the hosta of the fourth girl is nothing." ”

The eldest princess of Shunning has a lot of friendship with the eldest lady, so she gave Shen Yuxiang an apricot flower hosta on her last birthday, and Shen Yuxiang often wears it on her head to show her uniqueness.

But no one has heard of Shen Fengxu and Ning Wangfu, she is a twelve-year-old Bofu girl, and if she can get a congratulatory gift from Ning Wangfu, she will envy others.

But Shen Fengxu shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't be swaggering." ”

She is a Bofu girl, with no background and no reputation, and she is not worth mentioning among the cloud-like noblewomen in Beijing.

Since Shen Fengxu said this, others didn't ask more.

She glanced at the Nanmu box, pondered for a moment, and said, "By the way, second sister, I want to go to the bookstore to have a look in a while, can the second sister come with me?"

"That's good, of course. Shen Baitang said, "I just want to go to the bookstore to have a look." ”

Shen Fengxu nodded, and turned to look at Dansha: "Today, you can stay in the house and rest, and let Chensha go out with me." ”

Dansha was stunned: "Won't the girl take me out?"

In the past, but with Shen Fengxu's side, Chensha never liked to talk, so let her follow Shen Fengxu's side, Dansha was not at ease.

"Well, there may be someone else who will send a congratulatory gift in a while, and you can help Qingya and Huaqing do a little bit of something. ”

Dansha had no choice but to nod: "Yes." ”
