【Chapter 024】 Garden
In the evening, Shen Youfu came over.
Seeing Shen Youqing's haggard appearance, she was a little unbearable, and said to a few little sisters: "The fourth sister may be drunk and unwell, why don't you go, I will stay here to take care of her." ”
"Fourth Miss is better? Can we go together? It was Li Jiayu who spoke.
Speaking of which, this Miss Li is just the first time she has met, but Shen Youqing feels very cordial, and that kind of intimacy is even deeper than that of Shen Youfu, who is related by blood.
Before Shen Youqing could speak, the young lady of the Shangshu family smiled and said, "So girls should not do things that should not be done, don't you say, Fourth Miss?" ”
"An Hui'er, you drank more wine than Miss Four, is that what you should do? Now why bother to laugh at Miss Four. Li Jiayu sneered at each other, but she had to protect Shen Youqing more than Shen Youfu.
Shen Youqing saw An Hui'er's shy expression, and felt a lot more comfortable, and she was even closer to Li Jiayu.
The group walked out of the Shen Mansion and walked towards Dongcheng with a smile.
The sedan chair was invited by Shen Youfu, and she could ride ten of their masters and servants at the same time, Li Jiayu and An Huier's names Shen Youqing remembered, but she didn't know much about the red-clothed girl who was the least close to Shen Youfu, she was not like an ordinary girl dressed as a lady, she was dressed like a lady like an ordinary girl, she was dressed like the southern Xinjiang people Shen Youqing had seen, and she had a string of earrings on her ears, which was very eye-catching.
took the initiative to say hello to her, and Shen Youqing found out that she was indeed a member of the Miao family in southern Xinjiang, and she had some language barriers.
Seeing that Shen Youqing didn't understand her gestures, her face instantly turned red.
"My name is Lily of the Valley, have you ever seen Lily of the Valley? It's like...... Just like this one. She raised her hand, and the string of bells on her wrist came into view.
Shen Youqing had seen lily of the valley flowers, cute and small, and seeing that she was very serious, Shen Youqing hurriedly nodded: "I know, your name is lily of the valley, I remember." ”
When Shen Youqing was talking to Lily of the Valley, she didn't notice the eyes of the other people at all, and only thought about it, no wonder they didn't talk to Lily of the Valley very much, just because of the language barrier......
After arriving in Dongcheng, the garden party has begun, unlike in the past, most of the people who go out to play at this time are some daughters' houses, or groups of drooping girls, or women with children; Strings of lanterns hang in the treetops by the river, which is lively and festive.
Shen Youfu and An Hui'er walked together, and from time to time they would turn around and say a word or two to Shen Youqing, but Shen Youqing didn't have any ideas, but Li Jiayu said in Shen Youqing's ear.
"Is your second sister too disregarded by you, you haven't been in the capital for a long time, but she doesn't lead you around, she only knows that she is with An Hui'er, I don't know, I think they are sisters."
Shen Youqing was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Li Jiayu, who looked honest and very docile, to say such things to her.
On the other hand, Lily of the Valley, she probably saw what Li Jiayu could see, but she still struggled to chat and laugh with Shen Youqing, instead of making irresponsible remarks.
Shen Youqing has always been disgusted with things like chewing the root of her tongue, and originally thought that the likable Li Jiayu could be closer, but when she said what she just said, Shen Youqing was a little estranged.
My grandfather said that the taboo of making friends is to tell right and wrong and sow discord.
Even if she has no relationship with Shen Youfu, she doesn't need to be reminded by others......
In the garden party, the fragrance wafts everywhere.
Most of them come up from the river, a lantern of different shapes floats on the river surface, goes downstream, some of the lanterns are burning incense, all kinds of fragrances are mixed, thick and peculiar.
Shen Youqing smelled the incense and distinguished the various fragrances one by one.
Before it was finished, I heard An Hui'er say, "Let's go there and have a look." ”
Everyone looked over and agreed, Shen Youqing followed An Hui'er's gaze, it turned out to be a painting boat, not too big, the hull was decorated with various lanterns, the candles were bright, and the night sky above was extremely gorgeous.
The decoration in the painting boat is simple, there are candlesticks placed on all sides, the flames jump down to illuminate the whole inner room of the painting boat, a bookcase is in the middle, and calligraphy and paintings are hung around it, mostly pastoral landscapes, which look elegant and quite bookish.
Entering the painting boat, Shen Youqing was attracted by the incense burner on the bookcase, which was the appearance of a golden toad, lifelike, and the faint light smoke spit out from its mouth, accompanied by the smell of soothing and fragrant fragrance, which made people feel soothing and peaceful.
"There is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone here, is it specially prepared for the fourth lady?" An Hui'er first noticed the four treasures of the study on the bookcase.
Shen Youqing hooked her lips and smiled, if others didn't see it, you just said it first, are you sure it wasn't you who prepared it?
"Fourth Miss, I'll give you the ink, we're lucky today, Fourth Miss, please." An Hui'er walked straight to the bookcase, and before Shen Youqing could answer, she picked up the ink block, smiled kindly, but there was a little trickery in her eyes......
Shen Youqing didn't twist either, she walked towards the bookcase, she didn't pay attention, when she was writing with a pen, Lily of the Valley came over, and whispered next to her: "An Hui'er clearly wants to see you make a fool of yourself, Miss Shen, why don't you refuse her." ”
"You, why did you suddenly speak so smoothly in official language?" Shen Youqing didn't care about her words, but was surprised by the sudden change in Lily of the Valley.
Lily of the valley's cheeks were slightly red, and she lowered her head shyly: "I will be a little scared when I talk to strangers for the first time, Miss Shen, don't laugh at me." ”
Shen Youqing smiled kindly, it was the first time she had met a girl like Lily of the Valley, she was innocent and innocent, she had no scheming, and she also had a good impression of her, so she comforted: "How could it be." ”
"Fourth Miss, let's start." An Hui'er didn't mean to stop there, she just heard that the fourth lady of the Shen family was not in the Shen family since she was a child, but lived in the general's mansion on the southwest border, she must have been a rude wild girl, but when she saw it today, she didn't have the countryside she imagined, and it seemed that it was not worse than them, the daughters of the Yumen who grew up in a high-ranking family, especially the disdainful eyes that appeared from time to time at that time, it was like a pampered pearl in the palm of her hand.
It's just like this, it makes her feel even more blind, she has always felt that the second lady Shen Youfu, who has been friends with her since childhood, is the best-looking, but this fourth miss brings her a completely different feeling; The fourth lady is obviously not as beautiful as her second sister, nor is she as graceful as her, but her expression is full of unspeakable momentum, with that kind of arrogance and arrogance, but that kind of arrogance is not disgusting. She is the kind of pride that exudes from her bones, but Shen Youfu tramples people under her feet and makes people look up.
But the more this happens, the more infuriating it becomes......
"Fourth sister, what did you write?" Before Shen Youqing finished it, she listened to Shen Youfu's inquiry, and seemed eager to see what Shen Youqing's words were.
Since the age of seven, Shen Youfu has been trained by Pei's family, and the teacher invited is also the famous Mr. Wu, Mr. Wu imitates Yan Ti, and has reached the point of being superb, Shen Youfu has practiced since childhood, and has quite a wise root, and naturally learns very well; Looking at the beautiful little jasper in the entire capital, there are few who can compare with her words, so she is quite confident in her words, but she doesn't know what her fourth sister will write her words in......
