Chapter 421: Homely

Although he was mentally prepared to fight and even be imminent, and received Sheng Weiqiao's euphemistic promise of help, Rong Sleeping Crane was also up and down at the moment, and said absent-mindedly when he heard the words: "At least you didn't turn us away...... Let's talk about it when we enter the Sheng Mansion!"

And Li Shengxu, who keeps saying that he wants to snatch love with a knife, is relaxed at this time, he has been in Chang'an before, even if he went to seek medical treatment from the old lady of the former dynasty, he was going north, and he had never been to such a far south.

Therefore, I feel very curious about the customs and trees of Nanfeng County.

At this moment, despite the rain, he lifted the curtain of the carriage, and saw it with great interest, so that after the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Sheng Mansion, he was still a little unsatisfied, and he was eager to go to the street market he had just passed by again.

At this time, the middle door of the Sheng Mansion was opened, and the Sheng Lanzi couple who stayed in the mansion lined up at the door with many servants to greet him, which attracted his attention.

"Neiko is pregnant, and she is approaching the delivery period, so she should not move, so she didn't come out to greet her, but she neglected the two of you!" Sheng Lanci said apologetically while making a gesture to enter the house, "I hope the two Haihan!"

Li Shengxu and Rong Sleeping Crane naturally said that it was okay.

Standing at the door and saying a few words of greeting, the main thing was that Sheng Lanci introduced Sheng Lanzi and his wife to Li Shengxu, and they entered the door together.

At this time, Sheng Lanci and Li Shengxu were at the forefront...... In fact, according to the title, he should be allowed to sleep in front of Li Shengxu, but he is here to propose marriage this time, and he knows the vinegar of his father-in-law, where can he dare to put the prince of the county at this time? It is too late to be low, and seeing Sheng Lanci's single-minded reception of Li Shengxu, of course he did not dare to step forward.

In this way, Sleeping Crane and Sheng Lanzi walked in the second row, and finally Xiao and Sheng Weiqiao.

Xiao Shi just crossed the threshold, and he couldn't wait to take Sheng Weiqiao's arm and asked in a low voice: "Qiao'er, are you okay going out this time? I heard that you were sick before? The news came, but it frightened us!"

"It's just a little wind and cold, who is talking too much?" Sheng Weiqiao saw that this aunt was still affectionate to herself, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Because of Sheng Lan's confusion of bloodline before her resignation, no matter who it is placed in, the people in the clan will have opinions.

Although she knew that under the preference of her grandfather, Mrs. Sheng, this matter could not shake Sheng Lanci's status, but she was also worried that the third uncle's family would have a rift with her family because of this, and now seeing that the Xiao family was as always, she put her mind at ease and said busily, "It's been nothing for a long time!"

Xiao asked again whether the back and forth went well, and after caring about his niece, he naturally asked about his own biological children, and he was very grateful to Sheng Weiqiao for the fact that Sheng Weiwei was crowned the county lord: "She is a little child, and she still has no city government and can't look at her eyes, where will she please the queen mother? Not to mention let the queen mother be named her county lord! It must be because you and Ying Jiang behaved well in front of the nobles in the palace and made her stained!"

Sheng Weiqiao said with a smile: "Third aunt, don't talk about the eighth sister, the queen mother has never seen the ups and downs in her life? ”

"There are so many children in Chang'an, and I haven't seen the queen mother see a girl who looks like a girl of the same age as a concubine and become the county lord!" Xiao is a reasonable person, and he didn't think that his daughter's county lord title had nothing to do with Sheng Weiqiao because of this, and said with a smile, "Don't cover up for Fu'er, she grew up with us, what kind of sex we don't know?"

frowned, mentioning the matter of Bishui County, "If she hadn't interjected a lot at that time, you might not have quarreled with the niece and nephew of the prince of Gaomi......"

Speaking of this, she pointed to Rong Sleeping Crane in front of her, and asked her niece in a self-righteous whisper, "Speaking of which, that's the cousin of the county king, right? Later, after the county king recognized his relatives, did you meet his cousin again? Did you ever trouble you?"

Sheng Weiqiao: "......"

Third aunt, although you think that your voice is very low, and you are attached to my ear, this person must still hear it!

However, it was nothing for Rong Sleepy Crane to hear this, Sheng Weiqiao said, "I have met a few times, but the old lady of the Zhao family is a reasonable person, before the aunt of the Xu family took us to the Zhao Mansion to ask for the guilt, but after the old lady over there found out, she asked the second lady Zhao to make amends for us." ”

"This scholarly family in Chang'an is different!" In fact, Xiao has known these things in his family letter for a long time, but after all, he is far away, and he still needs to ask his niece in person to rest assured, and he sighed at this moment, "No wonder I can marry the royal family!"

Speaking of these homely kung fu, the group also arrived at the main hall.

Originally, the Sheng family rose rapidly, firstly, the whole family has not yet developed a too subtle and too deep hidden aesthetic, and secondly, as the shallowest foundation among the three major trends, it is necessary to show financial resources to deter all parties.

At this moment, probably in consideration of entertaining distinguished guests, this main hall has been cleaned up as a whole, almost rearranged, and more and more splendid: the ground is paved with stone blue bottom ink embroidery entwined branches of crocus to pick gold thread, all the same color of rosewood inlaid mica furniture, facing the gate of a yellow pear side seat carved emu wood dyed tooth landscape pavilion screen although it has been carefully repaired, but you can still feel the charm of the precipitation of the years, next to the Bogu shelf, what jade plate, crystal carvings, coral trees, antiques, famous inkstones...... It's even more dazzling.

Due to the hot climate in the south, this season is also the scorching heat of the year, so it is natural to use ice in the house at this moment.

But I saw that the position of the wall around was a four-legged square carving of four seasons flowers and ice and ice, full of ice and snow, and there were colorful mountain flowers on the top, as well as melons and fruits in it, which made the whole hall full of fragrance.

In order to avoid stuffiness, the doors and windows are not closed, and only the silk and bead curtains are used to cover the heat.

Although this move makes people indoors feel refreshed and refreshing, the consumption of ice is also conceivable.

Being able to be so comfortable in the hot summer shows the financial resources of the Sheng family.

This situation was naturally not surprising to Sheng Weiqiao and Rong Sleeping Crane, after all, when they spent the summer in the Sheng Mansion, they enjoyed it so much.

Li Shengxu, who entered the Sheng Mansion for the first time, was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: "Before, my mother and grandmother said that the Sheng family was rich, I thought that Nanfeng County was only a lower county after all, where can the powerful family in this place be rich? ”

I thought that it was no wonder that my mother wanted to hold a flower-viewing banquet before, and she euphemistically revealed to the Sheng family that her family background was also very solid, otherwise if she really married Sheng Weiqiao, maybe this was already a very fierce girl, relying on a lot of marriages, and she might not really take him seriously!

…… Well, wait, it seems that Sheng Weiqiao doesn't take him very seriously now?

When Li Shengxu thought about it, the people below had already served tea and pastries and fruits, Sheng Lanci picked up the tea bowl and blew it, and said kindly: "Hou Ye, this tea is produced in this county, although it is not famous, but it also has a unique flavor, if Hou Ye does not dislike it, why not give it a try?"

Xiao Shi glanced at the top, and whispered to Sheng Weiqiao, who was sitting at the bottom like himself: "These two have your father and your third uncle to greet you, why don't we go first and see your mother later?" Your mother is counting the days when you come back these days, and she must be looking forward to it at this time, if she is not pregnant, we are not at ease, but I am afraid that we will also be eager to go to the dock to pick you up!"

"What the third aunt said is!" Sheng Weiqiao felt that it made sense, and was about to find an opportunity to ask for a resignation, but Sheng Lanci, who has always loved his wife and daughter, had already said after a round of politeness with Sheng Lanzi and Sheng Shengxu: "Third brother and sister, it's almost noon, please go with the obedient girl to see how the luncheon in the kitchen is prepared?"

Xiao then took Sheng Weiqiao to stand up, and Fu Fu left.

After leaving the main hall, there were two aunts and nephews, and they naturally spoke casually, Xiao was very curious about Li Shengxu, and while looking at the spring platform with his niece, he asked: "That is the only male heir under the knees of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Wuyang? I still wonder if it's just ordinary handsomeness, I don't want to be like this...... Is it beautiful that all the noble children over there in Chang'an are like this?"

Sheng Weiqiao said with a smile: "Not every noble child in Chang'an looks similar to him, speaking of which, he followed Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." Although Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is old, she can see that she must be very beautiful when she is young. ”

"Speaking of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, what happened to the previous flower-viewing banquet?" Xiao Shi said with concern, "Ying Jiang is okay now?" I heard that this kid jumped into the lake in the Hou Mansion, but fortunately, the Hou Mansion of Ning Wei had already taken precautions, and asked people to keep an eye on the lake day and night, and rescued her in time so that nothing serious happened?"

"There's nothing wrong with her. "When it comes to Gongsun Yingjiang, Sheng Weiqiao wants to support her forehead, this niece has always been a seemingly well-behaved but shameful person, before she was in Chang'an, she stared at her in and out, and she still found an opportunity to sleep with Xu Baomo.

At this time, she came back to Nanfeng County, she couldn't come back because she was going to prepare to leave the pavilion, and she didn't know if she would be a demon again?

At this moment, she sighed and said, "She is about to talk to Xu Baomo...... Well, it's Brother Xu who got married, and after they got married, well, I hope they and the couple can have a good time!"

"Then Xu Baomo is really not a thing!" Where did the Xiao family know the nature of Gongsun Yingjiang, when he heard Xu Baomo at this time, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and spat on the ground, snorting coldly, "When he came to live in our house before, we all thought he was a good one! As a result, what did your grandfather say in the letter......? This can still be said to be the way of others, but afterwards he didn't admit it in public, how many meanings does this mean?! Fortunately, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Wuyang is sensible and round the field in time, otherwise Ying Jiang would not have been forced to die on the spot in the eldest princess's mansion by him?!"

He must have felt that Ying Jiang was just the righteous daughter of our family, and he was disgusted, and planned to force Ying Jiang to die, and then marry a lady who was the right person for him! Speaking of which, his grandfather and your grandfather still had a lifelong friendship! He actually treated your grandfather's great-granddaughter like this! This is not only a loss of face for your grandfather, but also a fact that he didn't take our Sheng family in his eyes at all!!

Sheng Weiqiao twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and said vaguely: "No matter what he thinks, they are about to get married anyway." When the time comes...... Well, if you have a child, you guess your mind will be settled, right?"

Xiao Shi is not very optimistic about the marriage of these two, oh, she is mainly worried about Xu Baomo: "Qiao'er, things are not so simple. Although it is said that parents love their children out of nature, there are always some people in the world who seem to be born inhuman. At this moment, just the two of us, let me say something heartbreaking: When today's son is still empty under his knees, how can he have pity for his former flesh and blood? Moreover, in this world, there are few honest men! Since that kid of the Xu family refuses to be responsible for Jiang, I am afraid that even if he is escorted to marry Ying Jiang, he will not be good for Jiang! Maybe Ying Jiang will give birth to a child for him here, and he will even let people into the door outside with his mother's belt!"

She sighed and said, "For today's time, I can only hope that the elders of the Xu family can live a long and healthy life, and I will be able to press him for a few more years!"

Sheng Weiqiao smiled in his heart, and secretly said Third Aunt, you are really worried about Ying Jiang for nothing!

Xu Baomo did do the thing that his wife brought the mother and son into the door before she gave birth to an heir, but this kind of behavior can be heart-wrenching for a woman who normally gives him a wife.

As for Gongsun Yingjiang?

Sheng Weiqiao only hopes that this niece can see the face of the Sheng family, and the child born to Xu Baomo in the future is indeed the Xu family's species......

When it comes to the ability to cuckold each other, this unmarried couple is no weaker than anyone else!

Oh no, for now, Gongsun Yingjiang is still slightly better, mainly because the people in the Xu family except Xu Baomo are all on her side, firmly believing that she is a pure, weak, and innocent victim!

Even the Sheng family, except for Sheng Weiqiao, all think so...... It's Xu Baomo, because of the consistent romance, he has long lost his credit, and if they cuckold each other in the future, it is estimated that Xu Baomo will be miserable.

"Third aunt, don't worry, Ying Jiang is not easy to bully. Sheng Weiqiao then comforted Xiao, "Besides, aren't we still here? If Xu Baomo really bullied her, our family would definitely have to keep quiet!"

Xiao nodded: "That's right! Even if it's not our family's bloodline, but since the name has been set, this should still be managed! Besides, now that you girls have been named county lords, you are also decent in front of the queen mother and the queen, if that kid from the Xu family really treats Ying Jiang badly, even if our Sheng family is in Nanfeng County, it is not impossible to protect Ying Jiang who is thousands of miles away!"

The reason why she cares about Gongsun Yingjiang is not all because of her deep feelings for Gongsun Yingjiang, but also because, "So people see that our family even the righteous daughter is maintained like this, and they know the gold of our girls, and in the future, when your sisters go out of the cabinet, your husband's family will not dare to underestimate it!"

"What the third aunt said is. Sheng Weiqiao smiled and walked a few steps quickly...... As they spoke, they had already entered Chengchun Terrace, and at this time, the room where the Feng family lived was in front of them, Sheng Weiqiao thought of his long-lost mother, and he was excited, so he naturally couldn't help but walk in three steps and two steps.

However, after he went in, and after calling "Mother" happily, Sheng Weiqiao was slightly surprised, "Auntie, you are also there?!"
