Chapter 115: Zhuang's acquaintance

In the past few days that Shen Xi has been in the capital, he has basically been meditating and cultivating, preparing for the upcoming entrance exam, and he has not even been to the warm and interesting street a few times.

Just finished his six-hour cultivation, Shen Xi felt a little bored, and went outside the door. The outside is full of tall old pines, and the air is also very fresh. I looked up and saw a spider, holding a thin silk, fluttering in the wind.

The spider in the wind seemed to have some special magical power, and she turned around with its drifting trajectory. I didn't want to, but I saw a woman in gorgeous clothes, with a good face and a smile on her face, appeared in front of her.

The woman looked to be in her early thirties, with very fine skin and only the slightest wrinkles on her face. The fat powder on her face is so good that it almost covers all these fine lines, making her look younger than she really is.

At first glance, the woman's smile is very kind, but if you look closely, you can see that her smile is not so natural, like the smile on the face of a puppet, which is vividly engraved on it. Her laughter has no soul.

The woman's headdress was as ornate as her dress, but not exaggerated, and the jade beads on her chest were round and dull, and the price was evident at a glance.

Beside her stood a servant woman. The servant woman also looked very good, but she was a little older. The shopkeeper of the Fulai Inn looked respectful, and after saluting the woman, he left in a hurry.

At first, Shen Xi thought that the woman was lost in the huge Fulai Inn and went to the wrong place. Seeing the shopkeeper's behavior, Shen Xi was sure that this woman was coming to her.

Shen Xi turned around and saluted the woman. said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "In Xia Shen Xi, dare to ask Mrs. what's the matter?" ”

Mrs. Jiang did not speak. Mother Liu said something unpleasant on her behalf, and she said unceremoniously: "You are Shen Xi?" Do you know who this lady is? ”

This is one of Mrs. Jiang's means of suppressing others. She always doesn't speak first. Let the subordinates show off their strength with the other party first, in order to explore the truth. And she looks closely to see the weaknesses of the other party. If the other party can't even deal with the subordinates, then she doesn't need to make a move at all, and she has already won.

"I don't know." Shen Xi's expression was calm, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. She could clearly sense the hostility of the other party. During the days when he came to the capital, Shen Xi could be said to have stayed at the inn. didn't provoke anyone, how could a lady suddenly appear, looking aggressive.

Shen Xi was just confused. but not afraid. This lady is just an ordinary person, and there is really nothing to fear. But the servant woman looks like she has two strokes.

Mother Liu frowned, as if she was not very satisfied with Shen Xi's performance. In this case, a little girl about ten years old. You shouldn't be so calm. You should be flustered, and even if you are not flustered, you should be weak-minded. But this girl is neither panicked nor weak-hearted, which makes Liu's mother a little weak-hearted.

"She's Mrs. Jiang." Mother Liu raised her head a little proudly, as if to say that she was the famous Mrs. Jiang, why don't you kneel.

Shen Xi saluted again and said calmly, "Mrs. Jiang." Hello, what's the matter? ”

Mrs. Jiang was a little stunned. It seems that I really underestimated this child, but I didn't expect that in addition to being good-looking, her temperament was so calm, no wonder Ming'er cared about her so much. If her family background is better, it doesn't matter if she is younger, but she is from the countryside, how can she have a good family background.

A girl who was not born well actually has such a good cultivation, which can only show that she is very ambitious.

Mrs. Jiang seemed to see herself in Shen Xi's body. She can have a deep city of her own, but her daughter-in-law can't do that. She didn't want to see her son controlled by such people.

Mrs. Jiang finally spoke, and she said softly: "I am Jiang Haiming's mother, Jiang Shishi, and I heard that you are Ming'er's friend, so I wanted to come to visit." Don't you want me to come in and sit down? ”

Her voice was very soft, and it could even be described as sweet, but it was extremely uncomfortable to hear in Shen Xi's ears. People with honey-bellied swords often talk like this, and Shen Xi raised his vigilance.

Shen Xi believed that this woman was Haiming's mother, but she didn't look like she was here to visit at all, but like she had come to ask for sin. Shen Xi thought about it, didn't he ask him for a golden sword last time, Mrs. Jiang was distressed and wanted to go back. Shen Xi thought indiscriminately.

A friend's mother can be called aunt, but the woman in front of her is not kind at all, and Shen Xi will not call her like this. "Mrs. Jiang, please come in." Shen Xi made a gesture of invitation and welcomed her in.

After Mrs. Jiang entered, she looked at the Green Wax Pavilion, and felt more and more dazzling, a little girl from the countryside should not have this taste. It reminded her of her past.

Shi Yuzhen followed his brother to Zhengjiang County when he was young, and looked at those famous women wearing gold and silver, behaving elegantly, and envious of them. But when she had the opportunity to go to the capital and saw the dress of the noble lady in the capital, she felt that the famous woman of Zhengjiang County was like a bun. She has always dressed herself in a simple and dignified manner, like other noblewomen in the capital, and she secretly learns the manners of the noblewomen, so as not to be ridiculed for being from a remote town.

The little girl in front of her is obviously from the countryside, but why is she dressed more generously and decently than her. Mrs. Jiang was a little jealous. She walked to the front of the hall and sat down as if she were the owner of the place.

Shen Xi made tea for her, and then sat down. She didn't speak, but sat quietly.

Mrs. Jiang did not speak. She picked up the tea, sniffed it, and said, "Yongchun Buddha's hand, good tea." The county guard of Yongchun paid tribute to the palace. The emperor rewarded it to the three dukes and nine kings, which ordinary people did not have. Presumably Naru'er gave it to you, right? ”

"Yes." Shen Xi thought to himself, it's stingy, isn't it just some tea, as for the special reminder.

Mrs. Jiang began to drink tea again.

She seemed to be waiting for Shen Xi to speak more, but she didn't expect this kid to be able to calm down like this, it's been half a pillar of incense, and she hasn't spoken yet. Mrs. Jiang couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked, "Where are you from?" ”

"I am from Shenwang Village, Yueting Town, Zhengjiang County."

"Who is your father?"

"Shen Lin, a medicine farmer in Shenwang Village."

"Who is your mother?"

Shen Xi frowned slightly, but still replied, "Shen Zhuang's." ”

When Mrs. Jiang heard the three words of Shen Zhuang, she was stunned. She has many inexplicable entanglements with a woman surnamed Zhuang. She looked at Shen Xi carefully, and actually saw the shadow of that person. She blurted out, "Your mother's maiden name is Zhuang Hui." ”

"Uh......" This time it was Shen Xi's turn to be surprised. But soon, she figured it out. Mrs. Jiang is Shi Zheng's daughter, and she also grew up in Yueting Town. Yueting Town is not a big place, and it is really not a strange thing for her to know the Zhuang family. Shen Xi immediately regained his original calm and responded, "Yes." (To be continued......)
