Chapter 523: The First (4K Plus Monthly Pass)
Xiao Lei glanced at Xie Dongli speechlessly, not daring to say anything, but seeing his brother-in-law doting on his sister like this, his heart became happy again.
He scratched his head, thinking that he might have said too much just now, no matter what his sister did, it was for the good of his younger brother, how could he say something like that for the sake of a warrior and a warrior Suyue?
……
Yingsleeve returned to his home from Xiaolei's palace, very tired.
She worked hard to plan for Xiao Lei, but Xiao Lei said it was "child's play", and her mood was very low.
"Madame is back?" Cai Yun greeted her, "Miss Sheng has come to Madame several times, Madame ......"
Ying Sleeves was stunned, "Dai Dai? Go and ask her to come and sit down. ”
returned to the back room and changed into clothes at home, held a cup of tea in his sleeves, and leaned to the Luohan bed in the east room, thinking of Xiao Lei's words, he only sighed sullenly.
That's her own brother, no matter how ugly she says, she can't rest assured.
It's sad to be sad, and the scars in her heart can't go away for a while, but even if she is wronged for a while, can she really be angry with him because of this matter, and ignore him from now on?
Yingsleeve lowered his head and took a sip of tea, swallowed it slowly, and then exhaled a long breath.
"Madam, Miss Sheng is here." Cai Yun replied outside the door.
Ying Sleeves came back to his senses, sat up straight, put down the teacup, and said with a smile: "Please." ”
Cai Yun smiled and opened the curtain for Sheng Qingdai and invited her in.
Sheng Qingdai smiled at Ying Sleeve and said, "Mrs. Vice Prime Minister Xie, you won't bother me too much, right?" ”
Ying Sleeve hurriedly shook his head, "Of course not." You are a distinguished guest of our family, I am too late to be happy, how can I bother you? As he spoke, he pointed to the brocade next to Luohan's bed. Sit down, let's talk. I asked Sheng Qingdai again if she had dinner.
Sheng Qingdai smiled: "I have eaten with my ancestor and brother." After speaking, he paused, and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom announced that our family has entered the palace. ”
Yingsleeve nodded, "I know, don't be afraid, His Majesty the Emperor treats people kindly, but he just looks at your Sheng family differently." He who summoned you into the palace to speak. ”
"I'm not worried about entering the palace." Sheng Qingdai grinned, "I'm here to bid you farewell." ”
"You're leaving?" Yingsleeve asked in surprise, "How many more days are you staying?" ”
"Miss Sheng. Please use tea. While speaking, Cai Yun brought in refreshments and placed them on the coffee table next to Luohan's bed.
Sheng Qingdai bowed slightly, waiting for Cai Yun to go out. Only then did he say to Yingsleeve: "My ancestor and brother may have to bother for a few more days." But they told me to go home first. When I enter the palace, I'm going to get ready to go back. After speaking, he sighed slightly, with a look of reluctance on his face.
Ying Sleeve pondered for a long time, and didn't dare to mention Xiao Lei's matter, so she had to rack her brains to change the topic, remembering the heroic posture of Sheng Qingdai who jumped into the water from the top of the Lake Pavilion that day, Ying Sleeve moved in her heart and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Miss Sheng to swim." It's really rare. ”
She thought that with a family like the Sheng family, Sheng Qingdai could be regarded as a young lady raised in the boudoir. Even if she was arrogant, she never thought she would swim.
And looking at her posture that day, she was still very authentic and skillful.
Sheng Qingdai tilted her head and smiled: "Well, is it rare?" Most of our Sheng family girls can swim, this is the rule handed down from our ancestors. ”
"The rules handed down from our ancestors?" Yingsleeve was a little funny, "How can such a rule be handed down?" ”
"Mrs. Vice-Chancellor doesn't know, do you? In the early days of our Sheng family, we were just fishermen on the banks of the Liuli River. You say fisherman's girl, how can you not learn to swim? Isn't this forgetting what it is? So our Sheng family passed down this rule. After Sheng Qingdai finished speaking, she took a sip of tea and praised it: "This powder cake has the fragrance of tea, it is really chic." ”
Yingsleeve smiled: "It's a style from the palace, my chef only learned it before, you eat well, let them send you supper at night." ”
"Thank you, ma'am." Sheng Qingdai said generously, and there was no pretension.
"You're welcome." Yingsleeve also took a piece of tea and ate it, swallowed the tea, and said, "Where is the Liuli River?" Never heard of it. ”
"I heard my ancestor say once that the Liuli River used to be a small river bay near the capital of Northern Qi and a small tributary of the Qingjiang River that runs through the mainland of Zhongzhou, but now it has long since dried up and become a field." Sheng Qingdai said disapprerovingly, "If you don't say it's two thousand five hundred years, how can it still be there?" ”
It used to be a noisy river, right?
Fishing boats shuttle on the river, and fishermen work at sunrise to make a living on the river.
The fishermen wore hats and baskets on their backs, and walked through the green lotus leaves that covered the sky and the sun.
The ancient fishing song fluttered on the surface of the river, and under the sunset, everyone had a warm golden smile on their faces......
It's just that more than 2,500 years have passed, the vicissitudes of life, the stars have changed, the world has changed, the personnel are completely different, and the Liuli River is gone.
Ying Sleeve was stunned for a moment.
Sheng Qingdai looked at Ying Sleeve, rolled her eyes, and still asked, "Mrs. Vice Prime Minister Xie, I heard that the war girl was hired by His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun to be a side concubine?" ”
Ying Sleeve came back to his senses, nodded, and said, "The imperial grandson is fast, but we are one step slower." ”
Sheng Qingdai choked, lowered her eyes, and asked tentatively, "...... Could it be that the little prince also wants to marry a war girl? If so, why didn't you push the boat down that day? ”
Ying Sleeve glanced at her and hinted with a smile, "It's too late to say anything now." Our Xiao Lei is in this position, and there is no way, one concubine, two side concubines, you have to choose, I also have a headache. ”
Sheng Qingdai's white fingers tightly clamped the ice jade porcelain tea cup in front of her, her fingers were as full as onion tubes, and they were mixed with the ice jade color of the ice jade porcelain tea cup, and she couldn't tell where her fingers were and where was the ice jade porcelain.
“…… The little prince wants to marry so much? Sheng Qingdai's voice lowered, and when she saw Ying Sleeve looking over, she immediately cheered up again and said with a forced smile: "I'm just curious." ”
"He is a member of the royal family, and he has the responsibility of continuing the heirs." Ying Sleeve said slowly.
She could feel the secret feelings between Sheng Qingdai and Xiao Lei, and Xiao Lei even confessed his different feelings for Sheng Qingdai today. But Yingsleeve also saw that Xiao Lei did have a bit of the true biography of the people in the Yuan royal family.
He can love someone. But it will never be true to just one person.
His feelings are layered, there are favorites, secondly, general likes, and dislikes, unlike some people, like is like. If you don't like it, you don't like it
Whether he is affectionate or ruthless, it is also very consistent with his royal status.
Ying Sleeve knows it clearly. Such a temperament is suitable for being a member of the royal family.
From this point of view, Ying Sleeve felt that she should be gratified, at least her younger brother. Very suitable to be his little prince.
If you can be the emperor of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom in the future. I can also play with ease.
Sheng Qingdai didn't speak for a long time, and her mood was obviously low.
Yingsleeve didn't persuade her, but just diverted the topic and asked with a smile: "Miss Sheng has such a character and such a great ability, but does she have a marriage?" ”
Sheng Qingdai shook her head, "No, I didn't have a marriage." ”
"Why is that?"
"Our Sheng family daughter is going to get married. You have to be willing. If we are not willing, our family members cannot force us to marry. "Speaking of your own home. Sheng Qingdai said proudly, "The daughter of the Sheng family who vowed not to marry for the rest of her life and stayed in the Sheng family can learn the medical skills of the Sheng family." ”
The status of the daughter of the Sheng family is still higher than that of ordinary people.
Ying Sleeve was very envious when she heard this, "This is not bad, your Sheng family also has a heart for your daughter." ”
Sheng Qingdai took a deep breath, nodded, stood up and said, "I will enter the palace with my ancestor and brother tomorrow to meet His Majesty the Emperor, and I will go back to prepare." I won't bother for now. With that, the blessed body took his leave and left.
Yingsleeve got up and sent her to the door.
When Sheng Qingdai came to the second gate, she happened to see Xiao Lei and Xie Dongli coming in together, so she had to stop, curtsy and said, "Little prince, Vice Minister Xie." ”
Xie Dongli hurriedly raised his hand, "Miss Sheng is here to see the sleeves?" ”
"I told Mrs. Xie about something just now." Sheng Qingdai's gaze swept over Xiao Lei's face and fell on Xie Dongli.
Xiao Lei took a deep look at her, turned around and strode forward.
Xie Dongli bowed to Sheng Qingdai, "It's not early, Miss Sheng walks slowly." ”
Sheng Qingdai pursed her lips and left from the second door.
Xiao Lei was in a stirring mood, and walked quickly until he walked to the door of the courtyard where Yingshou and Xie Dong lived, and then stopped, and looked back at the place where he came from, the night was vast, and a few lanterns were hanging on the verandah, and the lights were pouring down, but they could only illuminate a place around the lanterns, and could not penetrate the vast night.
Xie Dongli walked behind him silently and entered the courtyard.
Xiao Lei hurriedly followed.
"Madam, the fifth master and the little prince are here together." Cai Yun was busy coming to the east to report back.
Yingsleeve frowned, "Why is Xiao Lei here?" While instructing Cai Yun to prepare dinner.
As soon as Cai Yun went out, Xiao Lei opened the curtain and walked in.
Yingsleeve stood up, and before she could speak, Xiao Lei had already knelt down in front of her, looked at Yingsleeve, and said anxiously: "Sister, today it was my lard that blinded my heart, said the wrong thing, and collided with my sister, I hope my sister won't be angry with me!" ”
Ying Sleeve was not angry with Xiao Lei, she just felt a little aggrieved and sad, this time she saw Xiao Lei kneeling and pleading, she had already relented, and hurriedly pulled him up, and said: "Xiao Lei, you don't need to be like this with your sister." Sister understands what you mean, it's my sister who is not thoughtful, if you still want to entrap the Zhan family, we ......"
"Nope! No! Xiao Lei listened to Yingsleeve's words, and was ashamed of himself.
He secretly wondered that it was indeed his brother-in-law who knew his sister better, and his own brother actually wondered if his sister was ignoring the overall situation because of a trivial matter......
In fact, she just loves her brother too much.
Xiao Lei's heart was excited and sour, his eyes immediately turned red, he hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve, stood up, and said sincerely: "Sister, no, since Zhan Suyue made my sister unhappy, I will not marry her no matter what." Not to mention being a side concubine, even if she is a girl in the room, she is not qualified! ”
"Huh? How did your mind turn so fast? Yingsleeve was surprised, "Didn't you just think about the Zhan family?" How did you suddenly figure it out? ”
Xiao Lei smiled embarrassedly, "It's me who didn't think it through, and my sister is for my good, I understand." ”
"You're not wrong." Yingsleeve raised his arm and touched Xiao Lei's head.
Xiao Lei is already taller than her.
"Sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong." Xiao Lei sat down with Yingsleeve, "My brother-in-law said that I was beaten, and I also figured it out." To make a man's career, he must first stand up by himself. This kind of thing depends on fate. It's better if you can help, and it's okay if you can't help. I was so anxious that I lost my temper with my sister, I shouldn't. ”
"Oh, I turned out to listen to my brother-in-law, but you didn't listen to my sister?" Ying Sleeve said half-jokingly, and pulled Xiao Lei to sit beside him, "Xiao Lei, it's not that I haven't thought of using family affairs to help you, even the emperor's grandfather thinks so." Look at the candidate we picked for you, which one has no family background? I just hope that when you choose among these people, it is best to choose a woman who can be matched, rather than completely based on family background. A lifetime is so long, I don't want to see you regret it in the future and make some quick moves to hurt your relatives and enemies. ”
Xiao Lei nodded hurriedly and said, "I know, sister." But, sister, why do you hate Zhan Suyue so much? He couldn't help but ask.
Ying Sleeve looked at him, "You really want to know?" ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Lei nodded heavily, since he wants to say it openly, then open it up.
"Because she's thinking about your brother-in-law." Ying Sleeve said with a straight face, "She told me personally that she wanted to marry you so that she could be a relative of your brother-in-law, so that she could see him often......"
This kind of thing is said to be that Zhan Suyue has no face, but when it comes to Xie Dongli, Yingshou always doesn't want many people to know.
Xiao Lei gasped, and couldn't help but slap the table and scolded: "It's really unreasonable! What is she in our house?! This kind of water-based woman with different hearts and mouths, the imperial grandson still marries back as a baby?! ”
Yingsleeve smiled, "Don't scold people. Didn't you think the same thing as the imperial grandson before? ”
"It's my mistake, sister, I'll listen to you in the future." Xiao Lei hurriedly appeased Yingsleeve, and said everything Xie Dongli said to him, and finally said: "Sister, you see that my brother-in-law also said that I was wrong, he spoke for you!" ”
Xie Dongli's words were like a stream of heat, which warmed her sleeves from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, warming her heart that was deeply hurt by Xiao Lei.
Her face was crimson, her eyes were like water, and Ying Ying smiled: "Xiao Lei, you have grown up, and you can make your own decisions about the future." My sister can't help you for a lifetime, and she has to let go of you to really grow up. ”
Even if he fell, he didn't know the pain until he fell.
Although Yingsleeve still loves Xiao Lei, she understands that she can't go all out like before.
It's not that Xiao Lei's unappreciative hurt her heart, but the best way for Xiao Lei now is to let go.
Only by letting go can he learn to walk on his own.
Even if he is reluctant, he can only accompany him here.
The only one who can accompany him for the rest of his life is his husband.
And Xie Dongli, the man who used to be ranked after Xiao Lei in her heart, has unconsciously become the most important and first man in her heart.
Xiao Lei was a little uneasy, but seeing how Ying Sleeve looked at him, he was still the same as before, and he was a little relieved.
He stayed and had dinner with Ying Sleeve and Xie Dongli before returning to his prince's mansion.
After Xiao Lei left, Ying sleeves snuggled in Xie Dongli's arms and murmured: "Fifth master, I only have you......"
Xie Dongli lowered his head and kissed her cheek, "You not only have me, but also your mother, your brother, your imperial grandfather, and so many relatives and friends." ”
"But you're the only one who puts me first." Yingsleeve turned around and hugged Xie Dongli's waist, "Dongli, thank you, thank you......"
