Chapter Seventy-Two: The Inside Story (Part II)
Shen Chunlan, Guerlain, and He Mingyu walked together in Prince Su's mansion. Because Chunlan and Guerlain have been incompatible for a long time, they naturally don't speculate for more than half a sentence. He Minglan has been adjusting from it, and naturally feels tired, but fortunately, it is proposed that everyone go to a crowded place in the courtyard to take a turn, and you can find the little sisters who are familiar with each other, and introduce them to He Mingyu, who has just entered Beijing, and everyone can play together.
Shen Chunlan loves to be lively, and there is no reason not to agree. Shen Jiaolan has a calculation in her heart, and she is naturally happy.
The three of them went to the pavilion in the courtyard to look for someone.
There's nothing wrong with this point. It's just that the three of them are not familiar with Prince Su's mansion, so it is very likely that they will inadvertently rush into the range where the men are. He Mingyu suggested that it would be better to find a subordinate from Prince Su's Mansion to guide the way, so as not to be reckless. But the three of them searched for a long time and did not find anyone. Guerlain proposed to sit down in a pavilion called Wangchun Pavilion in the distance, and then sent someone to find someone from Prince Su's mansion to guide the way.
Shen Chunlan and He Mingyu did not doubt him, and because they were quite tired from shopping, they agreed to her proposal. After the three of them sat down in the pavilion, they found that tea sets and snacks were placed on the stone table inside, and there was also a long table for playing the qin, a square stool, and a guqin placed on it. This is obviously for reception.
The ladies of the house also often set up banquets in the hall, in groups of three or two, or wine against each other, play games, and gossip. Chunlan and Mingyu didn't think much about it, seeing such a scene in the pavilion, they knew that there was a lady who wanted to come to play the qin to increase their taste.
At this point, Chunlan calmed down and became a little excited. Shen Miaolan listened attentively and interjected, "Are you in the wrong place?
"You're right!" Shen Chunlan gritted her teeth, "Originally, we all made a mistake and couldn't complain about Guerlain, but then she went too far." ”
"What's wrong with her?" Shen Miaolan asked, feeling an ominous premonition. A pair of jade hands, unconsciously clasped tightly together.
Yun Ying, who was originally out of character, also looked at Shen Chunlan intently at this time.
Shen Chunlan didn't speak, but her face turned red first, obviously it was difficult to state the things that followed.
Shen Miaolan is not the kind of person who does not care about the feelings of others in order to satisfy her curiosity. So he broke the embarrassment and said, "The second sister feels embarrassed, and it doesn't hurt if she doesn't want to talk about the details......"
"No," Shen Chunlan seemed to have a lot of courage and interrupted Shen Miaolan sharply. "I'm not the one who did the dirty thing, and I don't have anything to be embarrassed about. And I trust my sister, and I don't mind telling you about it as it is, but I don't know if my cousin is willing to let others know. ”
Shen Miaolan felt that the inside story of the matter seemed to be very complicated, and it was not as simple as she thought. I regretted that I was curious to ask Shen Chunlan, so I spoke out to obstruct it. "Then sister, let's not talk about it for now, if you implicate your cousin, it's better to be cautious. After all, she is not a girl from our Hou Mansion. ”
Shen Chunlan couldn't hide the secret in her heart, and she couldn't bear it anymore. It's very difficult to rub these hands.
Shen Miaolan patted her hand, "Just tell the second aunt the truth about the matter, and the second aunt will definitely handle it." Before the dust settles, my sister should be more patient. After all, the girls' reputation is the most important. ”
"But......" Shen Chunlan showed a hesitant look, a little afraid. She wanted to say something more, but it was rumored outside that the fourth girl, Shen Yilan, was here.
Seeing Shen Yilan enter the door, Chunlan's hand quickly let go of Miaolan as if it had been burned. A hint of envy flashed in my heart.
Shen Yilan took in Shen Chunlan's expression, but pretended to be unaware, and said enthusiastically, "The second sister is also here." ”
Shen Chunlan nodded, "Yes, I have nothing to do to sit here with the fifth sister." As he spoke, he got up, "I've been sitting for a long time, it's time to go back." ”
"Why is it that as soon as I come, the second sister will leave. Although Shen Yilan said the words of retention, her body staggered to make way for Shen Chunlan to go out. "Sit down a little longer, and the three of us will talk together. ”
Shen Chunlan's face was still flushed, and her expression was not calm. She didn't want to stay any longer, so she said very strongly, "I still have something to do, so let's go first." ”
After speaking, without waiting for the master Shen Miaolan to say any more kind words, he hurriedly walked out.
After the person left, Shen Yilan slowly withdrew her gaze, looked at Miaolan and asked, "What's wrong with the second sister?"
Shen Miaolan sighed, "Today's matter in Prince Su's Mansion, I'm afraid there is an inside story that we can't guess." ”
"It's been a strange thing all afternoon, and my grandmother still hasn't figured out what to do with it. Shen Yilan wrinkled her eyebrows, with a look of disgust, "Shen Jiaolan is really a stinky fish that stirred up a pot of fish! ”
Her words were very soft, and Miaolan didn't hear them clearly. So he asked suspiciously, "Sister, what did you just say?"
Shen Yilan knew that she was speechless, and hurriedly explained, "It's nothing, I mean, I hope that my grandmother will make a decision as soon as possible and calm down this matter." It's better not to implicate innocent people. ”
"Yes," Shen Miaolan echoed, "When this kind of thing happens, the most difficult thing to do is the big sister." Today, her situation in the palace does not seem to be as good as it is described in her own letter. ”
"If it's really good, how can my grandmother be worried, and privately ask my mother to pay more attention. Shen Yilan couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Shen Peilan's life, "This world is very affectionate, but the eldest sister is an affectionate person." That's bound to be a bit of a struggle. ”
When Shen Miaolan heard this, she was stunned. Regarding the matter of Shen Jiaolan, the two sisters did not have much information, and it was impossible to comment much on this matter.
The old lady was angry and fell asleep for an afternoon, and when she woke up, she heard that Shen Jiaolan had committed two suicides in a row, and her whole body was almost about to explode.
The second master, who didn't know the ins and outs of the whole thing, knelt in front of the old lady's bed, and didn't dare to take a breath. Stacks of pleas for mercy.
The old lady looked at her son, who was shrewd on the outside but confused on the inside, and a deep sense of powerlessness climbed up to her body like Teng Man, up to her throat, strangling her, and she couldn't breathe at all.
"Second child," the old lady said in a stern tone, "You also know what kind of family the Zhenguo Mansion is, and what kind of identity the prince is." Now that most of the day has passed, there is no sound in the Zhenguo Mansion, and Guerlain is afraid that she will have to pay the price for her mistakes. ”
When Second Master Shen heard this, his heart jumped violently. Raised his head in panic and looked at the old lady, "Mother, I haven't asked ...... things clearly."
"If the second brother is not clear, let me tell you!"
