Chapter 196: Dragon Boat Racing

Not long after sitting down, Shen Wei couldn't sit still, at this time, the dragon boat race had not yet started, where could the child sit still, so he couldn't help but say to Shen Lan: "Sister, can you go out to play?" ”

Shen Lan is not a pedantic person, naturally nodded in agreement, and asked Shen Mei's opinion, and then let the little sisters take the maid to play outside, compared to the bamboo building, there are crowds of people outside, and there are many vendors selling small things, these naturally attracted the attention of the little sisters, Shen Lan is not worried about what will happen to them, mainly because there is no car in this era, and she is not afraid of any accidents with the sisters, and the sisters are no strangers to Jixian County, and they will not get lost if they want to. So Shen Lan just instructed them a few words and let them go.

Not long after the sisters left, Shen Changhai also excused himself to leave, although Shen Lan was very suspicious that he had something to go, but he didn't say anything, and let him go, so that Shen Lan was only left with Xu and Xiangling, and the stone was held by Xiangling, the stone was still young now, and he didn't know anything, although he was curious everywhere, he didn't make any noise to see the excitement.

After sitting for a long time, a small servant came over, stood beside Shen Lan and said, "Madam, someone over there said that they were looking for you, I don't know if it?" ”

Following the little girl's words, Shen Lan looked towards the door, and saw Yuan Hao standing there smiling at her, so she nodded and said, "That person is an acquaintance, you can invite him over." ”

After getting the letter, the little guy hurriedly ran over and beckoned Yuan Hao in.

"How did you know I was here?" Seeing Yuan Hao approaching, Shen Lan asked with a smile.

"I just met your sister, and they said you were here." Yuan Hao was not polite, and sat directly opposite Shen Lan, and after saying this, he turned his head to the little stone and said, "Little stone." Do you want your godfather to take you to see the excitement? ”

The stone that was originally held by Xiangling immediately became excited when he saw the familiar godfather, and shouted at Yuan Hao: "Yes, I want to play, I want to fly." ”

Since Yuan Hao talked to Shen Lan that time, he often came to Shen Lan's side, and gradually became familiar with the stones, and played a small game with the stones from time to time. Now the stone is very close to him.

"Okay. When you go back, your godfather will take you to play Feifei. Yuan Hao agreed with a smile, and took the stone from Xiangling's hand and held it in his arms.

Getting Yuan Hao's promise, Shi was naturally happy. also sat in Yuan Hao's arms peacefully.

"Don't get used to him all the time, lest I be difficult to discipline in the future." Shen Lan still has some opinions about her son's intimacy with Yuan Hao, "By the way, why did you come down to the mountain to watch this dragon boat race?" ”

"There's just something to deal with. I didn't expect you to join in the fun. Yuan Hao held the stone's little hand and played with the stone. He replied.

Shen Lan didn't ask again, after all, this was outside, and he didn't know what he was going to do, in case it was a business matter, it was naturally not good, so he opened his mouth and asked. So Shen Lan didn't dwell on this matter, but instead gossiped for a while, and before she knew it, the dragon boat race began. Shen Mei and the others also came back, not only the Shen Mei sisters came back. also brought Wang Wenhuan's father and daughter and Shen Hailing, it turned out that Shen Hailing was on vacation in the school today, Wang Wenhuan took him and the two children out to watch the dragon boat, and happened to meet the Shen Mei sisters.

Wang Wenhuan and Yuan Hao are not meeting for the first time, they were still a little surprised when they first saw him, but when they saw Shen Lan's calm face, although they had a whisper in their hearts, they didn't use their expressions to come out, so Shen Lan re-asked people to serve tea and food, and the group sat in the bamboo building to watch the dragon boat race.

"Eldest sister, why didn't my father and mother come?" Not long after he sat down, Shen Hailing asked about his father.

"I sent someone to pick up my father and mother yesterday, but my father and mother didn't want to come out, so they didn't come." Shen Lan replied.

Hearing this, Shen Hailing was somewhat disappointed, Shen Lan smiled and comforted him, motioning for him to talk to Shen Mei and them first, and then asked Wang Wenhuan, "Is it okay for my aunt and cousin-in-law to be at home?" ”

"Cousin Lao cares, your cousin-in-law is still a few days away, and my mother is taking care of her at home." Wang Wenhuan replied politely, "How are my cousins and aunts?" ”

"My parents are very good, but now the family is repairing the house, and I don't have time to go out and walk around, otherwise I will have time to go to my aunt's place." Shen Lan replied with a smile.

The Shen family naturally knew about the rebuilding of the house, so Wang Wenhuan nodded to show understanding, and then Shen Lan asked Shen Hailing about his studies, Shen Hailing was obedient, and he was diligent in school, so he naturally did not lag behind in reading, and he lived in his cousin's house as a gentleman, so he didn't dare to be lazy, so he naturally read better.

Knowing these Shen Lan was naturally relieved, so the group sat and chatted, Yuan Hao was also a scholar after all, so he quickly chatted with Wang Wenhuan, and the Shen Lan sisters because they hadn't seen Shen Hailing for a long time, naturally asked about his recent situation, Shen Hailing naturally didn't dare to hide anything from Shen Lan, but answered honestly, and when they finished chatting, the dragon boat race was over, so that people left one after another, but because there were still many small vendors on the roadside, although the dragon boat race was over, Cheongsendae is still lively.

Shen Lan simply ordered a table of noodles, and everyone had lunch in the bamboo building with the cool breeze blowing from the river, the afternoon activity was just shopping, Shen Lan was now pregnant, so she simply told Xu to look at Shen Mei and Shen Wei, and she herself took Shen Changhai's carriage back, so she said goodbye to Wang Wenhuan and Shen Hailing and took Xiangling in the direction of her own carriage, as for Yuan Hao, she didn't go with her.

Soon Shen Lan got into the carriage, and Shen Changhai also drove the carriage towards the way home, no need to hurry, so the speed of the carriage was not fast, so the carriage was not so bumpy, Shen Lan was a little sleepy these days, so she gradually became a little sleepy, and when she was sleepy, the carriage suddenly stopped.

"Changhai, what's wrong?" Yawning, Shen Lan rushed outside and asked.

"Master, it's Second Master Yuan who caught up." Shen Changhai was silent before replying.

Hearing this, Shen Lan opened the curtain in the carriage, only to see Yuan Hao riding a horse and following the side of his carriage, but the road is quite spacious, otherwise it really can't accommodate a cart and a horse in parallel, at this time, I saw Shen Lan open the curtain. Immediately smiled at her.

Shen Lan was stunned for a moment, then opened the car door and said, "Aren't you in trouble?" How did you catch up? ”

Yuan Hao nodded, took a bamboo basket full of white flowers from the other side, handed the basket over, and said with a smile: "Oh, give it to you." ”

Suddenly the familiar fragrance of flowers spreads, it is a basket full of blooming gardenias. Shen Lan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. But he didn't reach out to take it.

"Don't like it?" Yuan Hao's tone was a little disappointed, in his memory, the local girls liked gardenias very much. That's why I bought a basket full of gardenias and gave them to Shen Lan.

Shen Lan was a little at a loss, she naturally understood Yuan Hao's intentions, but where her identity was, she naturally couldn't accept Yuan Hao's intentions. Yuan Hao did such a thing at this time, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

"Yuan Hao. You shouldn't have given me these flowers. In the end, Shen Lan still spoke.

Yuan Hao was stunned, showed a bitter smile at Shen Lan, and then nodded. casually threw the basket and flowers behind him, and before Shen Lan could react, he had already whipped the horse and slapped it on the horse. In the blink of an eye, he crossed the carriage and headed into the distance.

"Ma'am." Seeing this qiē, Xiangling called softly.

Shen Lan smiled at her and closed the carriage door. Said to the outside of the car: "Changhai, let's go." ”

Shen Changhai drove the carriage forward in silence, while Shen Lan sat silently in the carriage, and Xiangling on the side couldn't understand the mood of her master, so she could only sit quietly on the side holding the stone and be silent.

Unconsciously, the carriage returned to the Shen Mansion, Shen Changhai went to knock on the door, Shen Da who opened the door hurriedly reported to Shen Changhai, and Shen Changhai immediately ran to Shen Lan's side: "Master, Captain Song has sent someone to pick you up." ”

At this time, Shen Lan remembered that Song Wenxiang had said that he would come to pick her up and go to Mobei, but at this moment, Shen Lan couldn't help but show a wry smile, how could she go so far now that she was pregnant with Liujia, and besides, she had just decided with Yuan Hao about selling salt, and now she couldn't leave at all.

"Where are the people?" Shen Lan asked.

"Shopkeeper Xu has arranged for them to live temporarily in the original small courtyard, just wait for you to come back and make a decision." Shen Changhai replied.

Hearing this, Shen Lan thought for a moment before speaking: "I'm a little tired today, let's go see those people tomorrow, you can prepare wine and food to greet them later." ”

Hearing this, Shen Changhai nodded, Shen Lan took Xiangling into the door, signaled Xiangling to take the stone to play, Shen Lan herself went back to the house and lay down, lying on the bed Shen Lan was a little complicated, for Yuan Hao to learn her secret, in fact, she was very uneasy, especially Yuan Hao's current ambiguous attitude made her a little uneasy, maybe she should leave here, thinking about her heart before she knew it, Shen Lan was really asleep.

Sleeping until dark Shen Lan woke up, at this time the Shen sisters and the Xu family had returned, and Shen Changhai, who was instructed by her to entertain Song Wenxiang's subordinates, also came back, Shen Lan immediately beckoned Shen Changhai into the study, she told Shen Changhai to greet those sergeants Naturally, Shen Lan knew nothing about Song Wenxiang's affairs outside, so Shen Lan wanted Shen Changhai to go to those sergeants to inquire first.

"How?" Sitting behind her desk, Shen Lan asked.

"Master, Captain Song is very brave and good at fighting in the army, so he was promoted to captain in just one year." Shen Changhai replied.

Shen Lan naturally has no doubt about this, otherwise how could someone change from an unknown pawn to a captain.

"Nothing else?" Shen Lan also wanted to know other things about Song Wenxiang.

Suddenly, Shen Changhai showed a look of embarrassment, seeing this, Shen Lan was also curious, seeing that Song Wenxiang's matter was not simple.

"Master, it is rumored that there is a female general who has a lot of admiration for Captain Song." After hesitating for a moment, Shen Changhai still said it truthfully.

Female generals? Are there still women in the army in this era? Shen Lan raised her eyebrows, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

"That's right, the female general's father is the commander in the army, the female general grew up in the border pass since she was a child, she only loves arms and does not like red makeup since she was a child, and she often fights in the army, and later she will march and set up formations, so she often goes to the battlefield, and over time she becomes a general, Captain Song is very valued by her because she saved her life, so it is rumored in the army that the female general wants to repay her kindness." Shen Changhai briefly summarized the words he had taken out of the sergeants' mouths to Shen Lan.

Listening to Shen Changhai's words, Shen Lan couldn't help but fall into deep thought, looking at Song Wenxiang's previous expression, it didn't look like empathy and farewell, if she really didn't like the original owner anymore, she wouldn't send someone to pick her up, let alone react so violently when she mentioned the resignation book, so from this point of view, at least Song Wenxiang still hasn't empathized with goodbye now.

"I see." Shen Lan didn't ask anything more when she came back.

Shen Changhai was a little strange about Shen Lan's reaction, in fact, he was also very confused now, he had seen Yuan Hao's behavior during the day, and he was a little confused about what kind of mind the master was thinking, if he wanted to say what feelings the master had for Song Xiaowei, he had followed the master for so long, and he really didn't see it, sometimes he couldn't understand the master.

"By the way, master, about Jia Xiangtian's matter, how does the master think it should be handled?" Shen Changhai left Shen Lan before to find Jia Xiangtian.

Hearing this, Shen Lan looked at Shen Changhai with some incomprehension, and when she saw this, Shen Changhai immediately spoke: "He is so snub to his master today, could it be that he has a different heart?" ”

After all, if he got rid of that immortal island, the master would have no control over Jia Xiangtian, so wouldn't the large amount of money that the master had delivered to him before be a meat bun and a dog? And it is also possible to expose the master's secret, Shen Changhai feels that he has to guard against it.

"Changhai, are you going to look for him today?" Shen Lan asked.

Shen Changhai did not hide it, but generously admitted it.

"And what did he say?" Shen Lan didn't think Jia Xiangtian would betray her.

"Back to the master, he quibbled that he had never betrayed the master, and the reason why he neglected the master today was just that he didn't want to expose the connection with the master." Shen Changhai replied.

Shen Lan felt that there was some truth to this, after all, Shen Lan's identity and status in Jixian County were not high, if the best position was given to her, I was afraid that it would attract the attention of many people, but a not good position could hide Shen Lan's identity.

"He did the right thing, you don't have to worry about things when he gets things in the future, by the way, when you saw him this time, did you ask him what he was going to do next?" Shen Lan asked.

Shen Changhai shook his head, he was confused by Jia Xiangtian at that time, and he only cared about asking him, where would he think of other things? Now that Shen Lan asked, Shen Changhai couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, although the master's side belonged to him with the strongest martial arts, but in many other aspects, he was indeed inferior to the other two fellow brothers.
