On the day of Mrs. Shen's birthday, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and it was a good day.

The Rong'an Hall is full of flowers and has a strong fragrance of flowers, but for Shen Youqing, he is not very happy......

"Yuxi, go and see, is anyone else coming?"

"This is the ninth time you have called the slave maid, and if your cousin comes, he will definitely inform you."

Yu Xi was not very impatient, Shen Youqing glanced at her, "You are getting bolder and bolder now!" ”

Seeing Shen Youqing's symbolic face, Yuxi muttered.

Since the day before, Shen Youqing's eyelids began to jump, as the old saying goes, the left eye jumps wealth, the right eye jumps disaster, she always feels a little bad feeling, that's why she is so restless.

Because it is the old lady's birthday, Shen Xuan, who has been in the Hanlin Academy, has also returned, and in the past few days, Shen Youqing has seen this second uncle for the first time, as a few years ago, there has been no major change, but the appearance and shape seem to have lost some weight, for this second uncle, Shen Youqing still feels cordial, that cordiality even exceeds Pei's, probably because he has been together for a while.

Before Shen Xuan could come over, Shen Youqing took the initiative to walk over, "Second uncle." ”

Shen Xuan, who was still greeting people, was obviously a little surprised when he saw Shen Youqing, and the dignified woman behind him spoke first: "Wei'er, come and see your fourth sister." ”

At this time, Shen Youqing noticed that a girl was looking at her with her eyes wide open, her mouth was bulging, and if she looked carefully, there was still some scum at the corner of her mouth, Shen Youqing glanced at the girl's hand hidden in her sleeve, and unconsciously took a step forward, bending down slightly, "Fifth sister, don't say hello when you see the fourth sister, do you forget that the fourth sister often took you to the kitchen to steal dried fish to eat?" ”

When Shen Youwei followed Shen Xuan to Pei's house, she was just a nine-year-old child, and the child's heaven ** played and loved to eat, at that time she liked to eat dried fish made by her uncle Qin, which was fishy and salty, Shen Youqing couldn't stand the taste, but Shen Youwei, the eldest lady who had been raised in the boudoir since childhood, liked the taste very much, and often begged Shen Youqing to take her to the kitchen to eat secretly......

"The fourth sister is talking to her father, she doesn't have time to pay attention to me, and now she scolds me in turn." Shen Youwei snorted, her soft and glutinous voice was like a coquette.

Mrs. Shen Li glanced at Shen Youwei with disgust, "Wei'er, I just met your fourth sister, don't say such things." ”

Shen Youwei looked directly at Shen Youqing, not caring about Li's reproach at all: "The fourth sister won't be angry, right, the fourth sister?" ”

Shen Youqing didn't answer, just smiled, which made Shen Youwei breathless, and grabbed Shen Youqing's hand, the tip of Shen Youqing's nose was instantly filled with a sweet and greasy taste, looking at Shen Youwei, who was half a head shorter than herself, she couldn't help but feel helpless, another one who loved to eat as much as Yuxi.

"Wei'er, don't mess with your fourth sister, hurry up and say something auspicious to your grandmother......"

Shen Youwei let go of Shen Youqing and ran quickly towards the old lady.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Xuan had gone elsewhere, only the Li family was left, she looked at Shen Youqing with a smile, "Qing'er is getting brighter and brighter." ”

Shen Youqing smiled, "Auntie, if you want to say beautiful, the fifth sister is really beautiful." ”

"That girl is crazy all day long, she doesn't have the appearance of a lady, Qing'er don't be deceived by her well-behaved appearance." Li said with a frown, but his words were full of pampering.

Shen Youqing blinked and said with a playful smile: "Auntie, don't be deceived by my well-behaved appearance......

Li Shi was amused by her words, but as if she was joking, she couldn't help but be very happy.

After Li left, Shen Youqing lost his fun again, and in the afterglow, an arrogant figure walked over arrogantly......

"What's wrong with Miss Fourth today?" The voice of banter rang in my ears.

Shen Youqing didn't bother to take care of him, and he smelled a fragrance from afar, the mellow smell of agarwood, that kind of incense is unique to Xiao Lang's body, the best agarwood, he actually used it to smoke clothes, it was really a violent thing......

At the beginning of Xiao Lang's step into Rong'an Hall, he saw Shen Youqing at a glance, and when he saw her love, he couldn't help but want to play tricks on her, but he didn't expect this girl to ignore him.

Xiao Lang was holding a grasshopper he had just caught in his hand and was about to put it on Shen Youqing's head......

"My cousin is here."

Shen Youqing suddenly screamed, bounced up from the chair he had sat in early morning, rushed out, and asked Yuxi, "It's here, it's here, right?" ”

Yuxi, who was almost knocked down by Shen Youqing, nodded, in fact, she hadn't walked a few steps, and she hadn't seen where Shen Youqing was, but in a blink of an eye, she saw her flying over; Seeing Shen Youqing's excited appearance, Yuqiao couldn't help but be speechless, how much does this eldest lady like the young master of the Pei family?

What about the young master of the Lu family? What about the prince......

Xiao Lang was originally happy about his little trick, but he didn't expect Shen Youqing to stand up suddenly, and directly hit his hand, and his hand hit his chin again, and even the grasshopper in his hand jumped out......

"The prince is here, why don't you go in and see the old lady?"

Xiao Lang was holding his chin, and when he saw Shen Youlan coming, he immediately put down his hand and looked up at the sky, ah, the weather is so good......

"I'll go."

"Ahh Shen Youlan exclaimed, immediately covered her mouth, pointed at Xiao Lang and said, "Shizi, your mouth ...... Shed, bled out. ”

Xiao Lang felt it at this time, so he stretched out his hand and wiped it, there was a salty and salty smell, he gritted his teeth and stared at the place where Shen Youqing left, this crazy girl actually knocked his teeth into blood......

Shen Youlan lowered her head, took out a handkerchief and handed it over, but she didn't dare to raise her head again, but when Xiao Lang touched her hand when she took the handkerchief, she immediately retracted it, and her face instantly turned red to the root of her ears, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

Xiao Lang was originally a big man, but at this time, he didn't notice Shen Youlan at all because he was taking care of his injuries, and walked towards the old lady while wiping the blood.

"The eldest son of the Pei family has arrived!"

With a shout, Pei's face, who was laughing beside the old lady, was happy and he got up from his chair.

Xiao Lang happened to walk in front of Pei's family, and when he saw her get up and look, he also turned around.

A tall but slightly thin figure came into view, he snorted coldly, and was about to go to her to settle accounts, but found that beside her, there was a young man in blue, in his early twenties, this young man he recognized, whenever he was reprimanded by his parents, he compared this one: General Wu Ning.

"Ning'er, you're here."

Pei Shi greeted him, unable to hide his joy.

When she saw Shen Youqing beside Pei Ning, her hand paused, pulled Shen Youqing behind her, and greeted Pei Ning with a smile.

Pei Ning is the eldest son of his uncle Pei Feng, three out of twenty, but he is already a general guarding the frontier, he can be described as young and promising, but what makes all the elders and Shen Youqing a headache is that he is still alone!

"My little nephew meets my aunt." After Pei Ning saluted, he went to greet the old lady again.

Shen Youqing naturally followed, standing behind Pei Ning and being well-behaved and peaceful, Pei was a little puzzled when he saw it.

The old lady looked at Pei Ning's face for a long time, but she couldn't recognize it, so Shen Youqing took Pei Ning's arm and took a step forward, "Grandmother, this is Cousin Ning, my eldest uncle's eldest son, I heard that I used to come to celebrate your birthday every year, grandmother, do you remember?" ”

The old lady nodded: "I remember, it's the little general Wu Ning, and the old man is useless......

The birthday of the old lady of the Shen family was not grand, and only some people who were related to the Shen family came, but despite this, there were still two tables of banquets.

Men and women are separated.

Shen Youlan's mother and daughter, Shen Youwei's mother and daughter, as well as the eldest prince of the Ping'an Marquis Mansion, plus Shen Youqing and Pei's family, formed a table.

Shen Youqing sat on Pei's right side, and as soon as she took her seat, Pei whispered in her ear: "Qingqing, sit well, Ning'er won't leave immediately, always pestering him to look like." ”

Because of Pei Ning's arrival, Shen Youqing was in a good mood, and even Pei's blame didn't sound so concerned, and said casually: "Got it." ”

Pei Shi looked at her with some surprise, and couldn't help but look at his nephew more, probably only he could control his daughter......

After the banquet was dispersed, everyone did not leave, but chatted in the flower hall.

Shen Youqing sat next to Shen Youlan, usually, Shen Youqing was not close to her, it was just because Shen Youlan was quiet and didn't talk much, but at this time Shen Youqing found that she was quieter than before.

"Third sister, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Youlan raised her head and smiled: "It's okay, do you want the fourth sister to go out for a walk?" ”

Shen Youqing could hear that Shen Youlan was smiling a little reluctantly.

"Well, my grandmother's birthday is over anyway." Shen Youqing said to Pei's family, and after getting permission, he went out with Shen Youlan.

When passing through the flower gate of Rong'an Hall, a man walked over, tall and straight, his eyes did not squint, exuding a cold temperament, in comparison, what made people more concerned was the short sword he wore at his waist.

Led by the janitor, he walked over slowly.

Before Shen Youqing could react, she was pulled by Shen Youlan and walked to the other side of the path.

"Maybe I'm here to celebrate my grandmother's birthday."

"Third sister, that person is holding a weapon......" Shen Youlan only cared about avoiding suspicion, and didn't notice that there was something wrong with that person.

No one will carry a weapon to celebrate a birthday......

After the little girl and the man passed, Shen Youqing smelled a strange smell, "Third sister, do you smell anything?" ”

"Flowers, fourth sister, isn't there a gardenia tree next to you?"

"It's not a floral fragrance......"

Shen Youqing looked around, her sense of smell was very good, if it was an ordinary flower fragrance, she could smell it at once, but what she smelled at the moment was not the fragrance of flowers, but ......

"This adult, let me report it."

Shen Youqing heard Xiao Xiao's words, and couldn't help but look at the man twice, and the man's gaze suddenly fell on her face, and Shen Youqing was startled.

His eyes were too indifferent, too sharp, until Shen Youqing felt a trace of weakness in his heart......

"Fourth sister, what are you looking at?"

Shen Youlan patted her on the shoulder, she reacted, and then looked at the person, who had already entered Rong'an Hall, so she didn't think about it, and looked at the gardenia trees around her, the flowers were white, not stained with dust, and the fragrance was also intoxicating......
