Chapter 294: Night Party
Old lady Sheng looked at the woman kneeling and begging in front of her, and after a moment of silence, she did not agree or refuse, but asked Sheng Sleeping Crane: "Crane, what about you yourself?"
"Grandfather, you have only come all the way from Nanfeng County. Sheng Sleeping Crane had obviously thought about being asked this question for a long time, and said without thinking, "Not to mention the Sheng family's supply when the grandson was in the other courtyard, just say that the grandson was often pampered and cared for in the first three years of you and your grandmother, and rarely showed compassion and filial piety. If the people from the Gaomi Mansion are here today, they will immediately leave a few of you to go to the palace, this kind of thing Sun Er really can't do! So please allow Sun Er to continue to stay in the Hou Mansion to disturb, at least after settling everyone down, then talk about other things. ”
This statement made the old lady feel a little better, after all, he had been cultivating outsiders as his own grandson for three years, and he still ran over to show off his own champion, which was sad enough to embarrass people.
If this grandson is a white-eyed wolf again, the powerful biological parents will run away with people as soon as they appear...... Who can not be congested?
"Good boy, I'm glad you have such a heart. "Old lady Sheng was originally soft-hearted to Princess Gaomi, in the end, the princess knelt down in public and begged not to say, people still can't live long, the old lady's personality, I really can't say a "no" word to her, now Sheng Sleeping Crane's answer is comforting, and he gave way, "Although we are old, our bodies are still fine." You mother-in-law...... This princess doesn't look very good, so you better accompany her first. After all, you will be able to relax for a few days, and you will soon be on a bad trip. ”
The old marquis Xu sighed, and also said: "The Sheng family is in my old Xu family, you don't have to worry about He'er." ”
It's just that although the two of them expressed their attitude, the Gaomi royal couple looked at Sheng Sleeping Crane with blank eyes, and wanted to take him back to the palace immediately, Sheng Sleeping Crane was silent for a moment, but still shook his head: "Today's incident is too sudden, the younger generation wants to calm down." ”
"Since the child said so, what about ...... Then Ming'er, let's pick you up again?" Seeing this situation, Princess Gaomi wanted to say something more, but King Gaomi quietly pulled her and said cautiously, "Ming'er...... Your yard has been cleaned all these years, and your mother and I will go to sit at both ends of the three days. You can live when you go back, and you don't have to pack it up. ”
Sheng Sleeping Crane lowered his eyes and pondered, and the Gaomi Wang couple clearly held their breath.
After a while, seeing him bow slightly, King Gaomi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the princess had already shown a clear look of surprise, and looked at Old Lady Sheng and Old Marquis Xu gratefully: "The kindness and care of the two of you to Xiao'er ......"
"Let's talk about it later!" Old Lady Sheng and Old Marquis Xu glanced at each other, both shook their heads, and Old Marquis Xu helped Old Lady Sheng and said, "My old brother, I didn't expect such a thing to happen at all...... At this time, my heart must be very chaotic. After all, we have come from afar, and it is impossible to say that we will leave in two days, and the coming day will be long, so there is no need to rush for a while. ”
Seeing this, the Gaomi Wang couple didn't want to continue to say anything about compensation and repayment, and saw that the old marquis took a sip of tea, hinted at the send-off, and looked at Sheng Sleeping Crane, and walked away step by step.
And Zheng Guogong was also anxious to go back to find someone to discuss countermeasures, and exchanged a few more words of greetings than the Gaomi Wang and his wife, and left.
After the three high-ranking uninvited guests left, no one spoke in the main hall for a while.
After a while, Old Lady Sheng said in a dumb voice: "Then it was your mother-in-law, why didn't you send it when you left?"
When the old lady said this, Nan subconsciously wanted to open his mouth: If this is your own grandson, don't say a word of reprimand, it's nothing to beat! But this is the son of the clan and the princess of the palace who have recognized their relatives with blood, is it inappropriate to count them like this?
Simply Sheng Sheng's sleeping crane is still respectful: "Grandfather Rongyu: My grandson is not familiar with them, so I didn't expect it." ”
These words were clearly very distant from the Gaomi royal couple and secretly resisted, which immediately made everyone frown slightly.
Old Marquis Xu said bluntly: "He'er, could it be that you had no inside affairs when you were out, so you didn't show affection to your father and princess?"
"Has the old marquis forgotten? The younger generation doesn't remember the past. Sheng Sleeping Crane just laughed when he heard this, "So they said that they were the biological parents of the younger generation...... But the younger generations really don't have any sense of blood connection, let alone being affectionate to them at this time, even if they shout people, they can't shout. It's really embarrassing when I see it. ”
Nan comforted: "It's no wonder, after all, I haven't seen each other for fifteen years." Besides, you were still young when you parted from them, only five years old, where could you remember anything at that time!"
After saying a few words like this, Old Marquis Xu sighed: "Forget it, don't talk about it here...... Just because Zheng Guogong came, I saw that King Gaomi and the princess didn't say a lot of things, and they didn't even say the truth. Otherwise, why did the prince deliberately stop the princess's words several times? At this time, while there are no outsiders, brother, you and He'er go to the guest house to have a good talk, otherwise Ming'er will take him away from the palace......
The old marquis sighed again, "I'm afraid that it will be difficult to meet in the future, in the end, you have been raised as a grandson for all these years, and you treat it as a treasure, even if you know now that you are not your own, how can you give up this heart?"
On the one hand, he regretted that there was no ancestral fate between Sheng Sleeping Crane and Old Lady Sheng after all, and on the other hand, he hinted at Sheng Sleeping Crane and the Sheng family's kindness to him.
So don't just care about yourself and return to your biological parents, and don't care about the Sheng family's life or death.
Although Zheng Guogong did not get to the bottom of the problem, it is difficult to say whether he will turn over old accounts in the future. The Sheng family and the Xu family can't compete with the Meng family, if the Meng family really wants to trouble them, in the final analysis, they still have to rely on King Gaomi to stop them.
"Don't worry, old marquis, even if I go to the palace, my heart is always in the Sheng family. When Sheng Shenghe said this, he deliberately glanced at Sheng Weiqiao, but Sheng Weiqiao was frowning and looking at Old Lady Sheng's complexion, ignoring his eyes at all.
Sheng Sleeping Crane was a little disappointed, but this was not the first time this kind of thing happened, he quickly cleaned up his mood and continued, "No matter how this matter ends, I will not let the Sheng family and the Xu family suffer from the pond fish after all!"
Old Marquis Xu felt that his statement was a bit excessive, even if he had been living abroad for fifteen years when he was a child, and now he was not affectionate when he met his biological parents, but didn't he just meet?
When the time comes, it will be good to always remember the Sheng family's kindness to him, how can he keep his heart in the Sheng Mansion all the time?
The old marquis thought that Sheng Sleeping Crane was a little deliberate, but he couldn't say anything to the children of the clan who were confirmed in public, so he frowned and waved his hand: "Go ahead!"
Old lady Sheng nodded at him, didn't say anything, got up with his robe, raised his feet and walked out.
Sheng Sleeping Crane naturally followed, and Sheng Wei Qiao also wanted to follow when he saw this, but was stopped by Nan's shouting: "Qiao'er, you stay, Aunt has something to ask you for help with." ”
This time, Mrs. Sheng didn't speak to her granddaughter, and Sheng Sleeping Crane didn't say that she wanted her to be there, although Sheng Weiqiao was unwilling, she still stopped helplessly: "What does my aunt want me to do?"
"You know how much your grandfather thinks of that crane these days. Before the Nan clan finished speaking, the old marquis Xu at the top scolded first, "There is such a fuss today, your grandfather doesn't know how much he is scared at the moment......! Do you want him to come to Chang'an happily and go back full of worries?"
Sheng Weiqiao said aggrievedly: "I'm just worried about my grandfather and want to follow!"
"What can you do if you follow?" said Old Marquis Xu angrily, "What a stupid girl...... Okay, don't worry about this! There are more people in this house who can comfort your grandfather, not to mention me, your grandmother is also here this time! Do you want a little child to be so anxious? You, go back to your room to rest, take care of yourself with good food and drink, so that our elders don't have to worry about you at this time, even if it is a great help!"
Nan felt that what the old lady said was too direct and unkind, and he was very angry with Sheng Weiqiao, so he hurriedly remedied: "Dad, what you said." Qiao Er is also filial to Mrs. Sheng! Although her children's family has no way to share her grandfather's worries, she is not allowed to follow the hurry?"
Disgusted with his father-in-law, he said to the girl whose eyes were already covered with a thin mist, "Qiao'er, don't get me wrong! Dad feels sorry for you, for fear that you will be sad and sad, so he doesn't want you to get involved in this matter." However, people from this military background will inevitably not speak softly, but they seem to blame you. ”
"I know that my aunt and the old marquis both want me to be good. Sheng Weiqiao said listlessly and perfunctorily, it was easy to hold back tears, and he didn't want to stay in the main hall anymore, so he casually found an excuse to go back to the Red Pavilion.
At this time, whether the news that Sheng Sleeping Crane was actually the third son of the Gaomi Prince's Mansion Rong Qing's remuneration spread, Sheng Weiqiao didn't pay attention when he returned to worship the Red Pavilion.
But at dinner, she said that she didn't want to go to the back hall to eat, but the maid at the bottom went to pick up the food box without asking anything.
And the back hall didn't send anyone to ask why.
Originally, Sheng Weiqiao was still worried that her cousins Sheng Weirao, Sheng Weiwei and Xu Caikui, who have been sisters recently, would they come to visit her after hearing the news?
She is in a mess at this time, and she really doesn't have the heart to talk to people.
Fortunately, she waited until the evening to shower and change her clothes and went into the inner room to settle in, and no one came...... Eighty percent of the Nan clan and other elders knew that she must be weak and confused at the moment, so they specially spoke and forbade people to disturb her.
It's just that the orders of the Nan family and others can only restrain those who abide by the rules, such as Sheng Weiwei and Xu Caikui...... Well, the reason why I say this is because, this day Sheng Weiqiao has only been in the inner room for a long time, and she has not yet fallen asleep, suddenly hearing the soft sound of the back window, she squinted, turned over and looked out, and by the thick gauze palace lamp used for the night, she saw a familiar figure after the rosewood side seat carved landscape lady curly grass pattern screen.
Under the golden Caisui hibiscus tent, the girl rarely did not object to his night in the boudoir, and while getting up and putting on her clothes, she asked in a low voice: "What did you talk about with your grandfather?"
