Chapter 146: Bad
Chen Ying sighed, "Your grandmother also looks at you too closely." β
Wen Xian shook the beauty fan and smiled: "You don't know that her grandmother treats her as if she is an eyeball." β
"Don't laugh at me." Jingyi said: "Grandmother is just not at ease, I fell into the water once when I was a child, so I was not allowed to go to the pool." β
"How did you fall overboard?" Wen Xian stopped her fan and asked.
"It's been too long, I don't remember much, probably because I was naughty and accidentally fell down!"
Having said that, Chen Ying and Wen Xian's expressions were obviously unbelieving.
However, the two of them couldn't say anything, so they had to change the topic, "Do you want to eat lotus seeds?" Chen Ying asked them with a wink.
"Lotus seeds? If you want to eat, let someone come and pick some later. β
"How can this be the same?" Chen Ying said: "If you pick it yourself, it will be very sweet." β
"Really?" Wen Xian obviously didn't believe it.
Chen Ying proved with her actions that she ordered the attendant of the rowing boat to approach a lotus bush and lean out half of his body. Frightened, the two hurriedly grabbed her, "What are you doing, it's too dangerous." β
"It's okay, I often come here with my sisters to pick it." Chen Ying comforted the two, then stretched out his hand and really picked a lotus plant.
Then I picked two more plants and then stopped, and pulled out the lotus seeds from the lotus pod, which were green. A layer of skin is peeled off, and the lotus seeds inside are tender and white, which makes people want to eat it when they look at it.
"It's good to eat this lotus seed whole." Chen Ying ate a Dao.
"Isn't the lotus seed heart bitter?" Wen Xian looked at the lotus seed in her hand.
"The lotus seed heart is also a medicine!" Jingyi ate one, "Clear fire and clear eyes, the most good." β
"I see." Wen Xian nodded.
Chen Ying smiled and ate a few more in a row.
Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter from one place on the shore, causing the three of them to raise their eyes, Chen Ying looked at it for a while and then withdrew her gaze, "It seems that your sister and our cousin are in the limelight again." β
"Shen Ningxiang?" Jingyi frowned and glanced at the place that was gathered together, "She does have real talent and real learning, no matter what the fourth uncle said, she also came from the Hanlin Academy, and the eldest brother was also promoted." β
"Your four-room is also a good one, miss! That's stealing the limelight from you, and Shen Hanyu was there before, so he was still able to stir up peace for a while. Chen Ying glanced at Jingyi and said softly, hearing her talk about this, Wen Xian also listened attentively.
After all, such a family of ministers has the knowledge of being a human being, otherwise, why does everyone like to get together so much?
"You always have to divide the family, and you can't blame others, besides, the fifth sister has a talent to learn, and we can't restrain her, right?"
"Sister Jingyi is really generous, and those concubines in my family are not as good as the concubines."
"You have a lot of family, and our family is relatively simple."
Wen Xian rolled her eyes and nodded slightly, in fact, she felt that Chen Ying was reasonable, the concubines and concubines should be clearly distinguished, especially in a family like them.
"Jingyi, your handwriting is first-class and good, no worse than your fifth sister, why do you ask her to take the limelight every time."
When Chen Ying heard this, her eyes lit up, "Sister Jingyi's handwriting is good?" β
"Of course, my mother has seen it too, and they all said yes!"
"It's just that I've practiced a lot on weekdays." Jingyi said lightly, her eyes turned, and she suddenly saw an oncoming boat.
A woman can be seen sitting on the boat, and next to her is a girl, who is fanning her.
Looking at each other, she was stunned, this person was none other than Xu Jinli.
The two people beside him also noticed, and Chen Ying sighed, "What a coincidence, Lord Zhenjing is also there." β
Wen Xian also looked back.
The two boats gradually approached, and Chen Ying took the initiative to greet him: "Lord Zhenjing is also here, but do you want a lotus peng?" Shall I have someone pick some for you? β
It looks like they're familiar with each other, too.
Xu Jinli glanced at Shen Jingyi, who was sitting beside her, and shook her head lightly, "No need, I don't like to eat that." β
She noticed that Shen Jingyi was still holding a lotus pod in her hand, which she hated if she liked it.
Chen Ying was a little embarrassed, and Jingyi pursed her lips, obviously noticing Xu Jinli's hostility towards her.
She said, "It's hot, why don't you go ashore!" β
"Does Miss Shen Er want to leave so soon?" Without waiting for Chen Ying to answer, Xu Jinli said first, she looked at Shen Jingyi, her eyes were a little cold, "Do you feel shameless to face me?" β
Chen Ying and the others were slightly shocked.
Jingyi pursed her lips, "Where is the county lord, how can Jingyi face the county lord without face, if there is any misunderstanding, please think carefully about it." β
She knew that what happened last time would definitely leave a legacy of trouble, but this time she had no reason to blame him.
Thinking of his nervous appearance at the time, and the jade skin cream he sent, she had no reason to turn her face and not recognize anyone.
"Shen Jingyi, don't you think that no one knows what you are doing, right?"
"What does the county lord mean is that I am sitting at the end of the line, and I have not done anything unseemly."
Xu Jinli's eyes narrowed, and when Qin'er beside her saw this, she immediately said: "County master, the slave maid looked at Miss Shen Er, and she probably felt that the fiancΓ© who seduced others had no face to say it, so she denied it like this." As everyone knows, what is done is what is done, if people don't know, unless they don't do it! β
Wen Xian's eyelids jumped, "What nonsense, when did Jingyi seduce someone else's fiancΓ©?" This county lord seems to be a fault-finding person, and he can be angry when he speaks, "If this word spreads, how will you let my cousin behave in the future?" I also hope that the county lord will think twice. β
Xu Jinli raised her eyebrows slightly, and finally took her eyes away from Shen Jingyi, "Cousin? What kind of sister there is, what kind of sister there is. She glanced at Shen Jingyi again, "I can't get on the stage." β
"You ......" Wen Xian was angry, Chen Ying and Shen Jingyi grabbed her at the same time, Chen Ying said: "Why does the county lord hurt people like this, anyway, this is also a banquet for my Chengguo Mansion, like this, I'm afraid it's not very good?" β
Xu Jinli and Jiang Hua are fiancΓ©es, Jiang Hua and Chen Yu are good brothers, naturally she and Chen Ying are not strangers, although there is not much contact, but in the end it still gives her some face.
"What you said is true, but I saw something disgusting, I just couldn't help it, and I asked Miss Shen Er not to be surprised if I offended."
Qin'er pursed her lips disdainfully, "It's just the daughter of a concubine, county lord, why do you have to surrender your identity." β
In a word, the other three people who said it all changed their faces.
Shen Jingyi didn't want to deal with her, but she could tolerate her insulting her, but she couldn't tolerate her insulting her mother.
I saw her suppress her anger and smile lightly, and suddenly, the fragrance of clear lotus floated by, only to feel that her eyes were instantly fragrant, Xu Jinli narrowed her eyes and clenched her hands inadvertently.
Shen Jingyi ignored it and said slowly: "It is true that there is what kind of master, what kind of servant there is, like such a mad dog, it is really disgusting to watch." β
