Chapter 695: Appearance (First Update)
"The Shen family? He...... He's a guest at someone else's house? Isn't it good to go that way? Sheng Liuli's face flushed and refused to go out, "Or, let's wait for him to go home?" ”
Lu Ruilan's eyes flashed, this girl in the mountains seems to be very affectionate, at this time, she still knows that she is thinking about Xie Donglan's face.
"It doesn't matter, that's Yingsleeve's grandfather's house, and speaking of which, it's also Ayan's grandfather's house." Lu Ruilan said with a smile, took Ah Yan's little hand and walked out.
Sheng Liuli lowered her head, the green glow under her eyes was great, and soon it dimmed again, and she returned to her original state, she muttered: "...... We can't climb high. ”
"How is it Gao Pan? Yingsleeve is Ah Yan's mother-in-law, her maternal grandfather's family, of course, is Ah Yan's foreign family. Lu Ruilan sneered, bowed her head and said to the little Ah Yan: "Wait until you see someone, remember to be obedient, I will call you whatever you want, you know?" ”
Ah Yan raised her head and looked at her mother, Sheng Liuli.
Sheng Liuli hung her head and said nervously: "We haven't seen the world, so it's all up to Sister-in-law Liu." ”
"No problem, wrap it up on me." Lu Ruilan became more and more happy in her heart, and simply bent down to pick up Ah Yan and get into the car.
They took a big car, swayed slowly all the way on the street, and finally arrived at the door of the Shen family's mansion in Xichengfang District at noon.
At this time, the guests were basically all here, and the empty space at the entrance of the Shen family's mansion was densely packed with carts, sedan chairs, and many horses, which had been led to the horse courtyard by the descendants.
Lu Ruilan lifted the curtain and looked at it.
She is very familiar with the Shen family, and the disciples of the Shen family also recognize her.
There are no invitations though. It shouldn't be difficult to get in.
Lu Ruilan got out of the car and followed Sheng Liuli to hold Ah Yan and got out of the car.
Looking at the grandeur of the Shen family's mansion, Sheng Liuli was even more surprised. couldn't close his mouth, and said to Lu Ruilan: "How many people do you have to live in such a big house?" This is going to be in our mountains, and the whole village can live in it. ”
"Isn't it?" Lu Ruilan was amused by Sheng Liuli's words, "But only the Shen family lives here, and in the future, when they split up, only the eldest will live here." ”
remembered the separation decree issued by Emperor Yuan Hong. Lu Ruilan's face changed slightly, she suspected that this family separation order was actually from Xie Dongli's handwriting......
"Sister-in-law Liu?" Sheng Liuli stood with Ah Yan in her arms for a while. Seeing Lu Ruilan looking at the gatehouse of the Shen family's mansion in a daze, she called her softly.
Lu Ruilan came back to her senses, smiled at her, and beckoned, "Follow me." ”
took a group of maids and women to the corner gate of the Shen family's mansion. Lu Ruilan called the door open. said to the menzi: "Shen San, how is your eldest lady doing lately?" Is Prime Minister Xie also here? I just came from Leizhou, and I have an urgent matter to meet Prime Minister Xie Dacheng's wife, as well as your wife. ”
The man looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mrs. Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, it turns out that your old man has gone to Leizhou?" Yes, Prime Minister Xie Dacheng and his wife are here early. There are seats inside. Our lady is also in the inner courtyard, please come in. While letting Lu Ruilan and the others come in. On the one hand, he ordered someone to go to the second gate to send a letter to Wang Yueshan to know.
Wang Yueshan listened to her mother-in-law's words in the flower hall of the banquet in the inner courtyard, glanced at Yingsleeve, and said in a low voice: "Your eldest cousin-in-law is here, saying that she has something urgent to see you, let her in?" ”
Ying Sleeves was stunned for a moment, and then saw that the people around her were looking at her, thought about it, and said, "For the New Year, please come in." After a pause, he smiled again: "My eldest cousin and aunt are also handkerchiefs, so you don't need to ask me." ”
Wang Yueshan knew what was going on in their family, and she didn't break it, and said with a smile: "Also, for the New Year, everyone will meet, eat together, and just say something." No matter how you make trouble, they are all relatives, and they are tied to the bones and tendons, what do you say? ”
Yingsleeve nodded, and looked at the room full of people, all of them were the wives of the big families in the capital, the young grandmother, and the mother, aunt, grandmother, and the daughters of the Lu family, Lu Ruilan would not be so mad as to quarrel with herself in person.
"What the eldest aunt said is, just invite her in." Ying Sleeve said as she stood up.
Lu Ruilan is the eldest cousin-in-law, and Ying Sleeve does this, but she also doesn't let others talk.
Wang Yueshan sent her mother-in-law to bring Lu Ruilan and her party in.
Sheng Liuli kept her head down deeply, no one saw what she looked like, she only felt that the little girl she was holding in her hand was beautiful, although she was dressed in tatters, but she was really cute.
"Who are these two......?" The mother-in-law looked at Sheng Liuli and Ah Yan in a daze, and asked Lu Ruilan with her eyes.
Lu Ruilan smiled and said: "It's a distant relative of the Xie family, who came to join the family, and I met them on the road, so I brought them over together." ”
It turned out to be a poor relative who fought the autumn wind.
The woman understood, glanced at it with a smile, stretched out her arm to Lu Ruilan, led the way in front, and said, "Mrs. Liu, how are you doing in Leizhou?" Our wife has been chattering about it, and suddenly it is so far away that we can't see it for the New Year. That's where you come. ”
The weather on the fifth day of the first lunar month is not very good, and there is no sun in the cold winter wax moon, everywhere is bare, and there is no scenery in the yard.
But in Lu Ruilan's eyes, even the dead leaves in the corner of the wall are pleasing to the eye.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at the flower hall in front of her, and said with a light smile: "It's all inside?" Who are the guests today? ”
"That's a lot, the family Gaomen in the capital, and the three grades and above are here." The mother-in-law smiled and said, "Although our master has retired, the second master is up, and our maternal granduncle is the eldest prime minister, that is, your cousin, and our second aunt and grandmother are still the queen of Nan Zhengguo...... You see, who would dare not come? ”
The Shen family's family is also one of the best in the Eastern Yuan Kingdom.
Lu Ruilan smiled unabated, and asked slowly: "Your aunt and wife are really a poor person, she married the third prince before, but she didn't enjoy the blessing and separated. Later, he married Zhang Siye, and within a few days, the Zhang family was served to the pot......"
The smile on the woman's face froze suddenly, as uncomfortable as being slapped in the face.
Lu Ruilan is talking about Shen Yongjie, the mother of the Ying sleeves, that is, the aunt and wife of the Shen family.
Although she was right. But after the New Year, I was a friend of handkerchiefs back then, and now I say so. Is it really good?
Looking at Lu Ruilan's posture, there is really a feeling that someone is not good.
The mother-in-law stopped talking, and began to drum in her heart, wanting to get rid of Lu Ruilan, and hurriedly went to report to the eldest lady Wang Yueshan and asked her to be prepared, but Lu Ruilan pulled her arm tightly. I won't let her go at all.
Seeing the gate of the flower hall, Lu Ruilan finally let go of the mother-in-law, turned back to Sheng Liuli and said, "Take a look." This is the flower hall of the banquet guests in the inner courtyard of the Shen family. Isn't it good-looking? ”
Sheng Liuli raised her head and looked at the carved beams and paintings in the flower hall, the red and gold fur curtains, and the maids wearing red and green standing on both sides of the curtain. Pursed her lips. smiled: "Sure enough, the more you go inside, the better it looks." ”
"yes, it's better to go in." Lu Ruilan said with a smile and walked up the steps.
Two maids at the door of the flower hall hurriedly opened the curtain and preached inside: "Mrs. Liu has arrived!" ”
"Mrs. Liu? Which Mrs. Liu? ”
"yes? Why haven't you heard of it? ”
"I know, it's the former Mrs. Xie, have you forgotten? A while ago, the Xie family broke up, and it was shaken out that the Xie family's big house and second room were actually surnamed Liu, not Xie. It is Mrs. Xie's nephew, after the separation. I changed back to my ancestral surname. ”
"Oh, it's the aunt of the Lu family, right?"
"Yes, that's her."
Lu Ruilan listened to these gossips, and was not angry, so she let Sheng Liuli hug Ah Yan, and she took Sheng Liuli's arm and walked into the flower hall.
As soon as she entered the flower hall, her eyes searched for Yingsleeve's figure in the crowd.
When she saw her holding the maid's hand, standing against the pillars of the flower hall, with Wang Yueshan and Shen Yongjie beside her, the smile on Lu Ruilan's face was even bigger.
She saluted the three people from afar, and said, "Cousin, look who I have brought here." ”
Sheng Liuli raised her head in response and glanced at the faces of everyone in the room.
The room suddenly fell silent, and all eyes were on the ragged Sheng Liuli standing beside Lu Ruilan, and the little girl in her arms.
This village woman dressed in tatters is exactly the same as Prime Minister Xie Dacheng's wife!
The only difference is probably the skin color.
The sleeves are snow-white and pink, and they are delicate at a glance, and their background is extraordinary.
And this Sheng Liuli's honey-colored skin, coupled with that dirty clothes, is not a person on the table with them at all.
But in fact, the two are almost identical.
As soon as Sheng Liuli raised her head, Yingsleeve was also stupid.
This, this, this...... Isn't this Sheng Liuli?!
She was still dreaming of this person in her dreams yesterday.
At that time, she thought that she was dreaming about her situation in ancient times......
And the little girl in her arms, exactly the same as the little girl in her dream!
“…… Ah Yan? In the silence, Yingsleeve blurted out the name that had been haunting her heart.
"Huh? Do cousins recognize them? That's great! Did your cousin tell you? Lu Ruilan was slightly surprised, but quickly calmed down and pushed Sheng Liuli up, "I won't hide it from you, she was met on the road, and she said that she was going to take the child to the capital to find the child's father." I saw that they were pitiful, and I was afraid that the cold outside would cause frostbite and two lives, so I took them to my village for two days and brought them to the capital. ”
Ying Sleeve couldn't say what it felt, she looked at Sheng Liuli and the little girl in her arms, and felt that the sweat on her hands was about to come out.
Looking at Sheng Liuli, she was like looking in a mirror, her thoughts flew to the ancient period, and her whole body couldn't move.
Yingsleeve was in a trance, suddenly her stomach hurt, and the child in her stomach kicked her again, this kick kicked her awake, she calmed down, and whispered to Cai Yun, who was standing behind her: "...... I went to find my uncle and said that my eldest cousin was here and there was something urgent. After saying that, he glanced at Sheng Liuli, and nodded to Cai Yun again.
Cai Yun understood, hurriedly retreated, avoided everyone's eyes and ears, and went out through the side door.
