"I haven't seen her for a few years, but Sister Ling is really getting more and more beautiful."

Although Shen Lian was still smiling, her voice was faint, not as enthusiastic as when she talked to Lin Ningxiu.

Shen Feiling didn't seem to notice it at all, and still smiled, "Sister is really making fun of Ling'er, my sister is beautiful and moving, just like a fairy daughter who came out of a painting." ”

"Okay, okay, you two don't compliment each other anymore."

Lin Ningxiu said with a smile, "You two look so similar, isn't praising each other equivalent to praising yourself?" Shen Lian stuck out her tongue when she heard this, and said playfully, "Mother, it's good that you know, why do you want to say it, can't you let me boast about myself more?" ”

"Cheeky, not ashamed!" Lin Ningxiu pinched Shen Lian's cheek and scolded with a smile, "How can a daughter's family boast that she is good-looking!" ”

"Hehe, my mother is really good-looking! is the best-looking woman in the world, and her daughter is far inferior to her mother. ”

Shen said pitifully.

"When I came back this time, my daughter specially picked a few centuries-old ginseng for her father and mother, ensuring that your mother and mother will eat more and more beautiful, and let her father live younger and younger!" Shen Lian stretched out his hand to Yun'er behind him, took a brocade box and handed it to Lin Ningxiu.

"You girl, you have a heart."

Lin Ningxiu touched Shen Lian's head lovingly, and said with some distress, "In the future, you are not allowed to run into the deep mountains and old forests, just send someone to collect medicine, if you have any mistakes, how can you let my mother be good." ”

Although she was very touched by her daughter's intentions, she was more worried about her daughter's safety.

In the past, she didn't care what happened in Emeishan, but since she returned to the capital, she wanted her daughter to be the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in a proper manner, live peacefully and peacefully, and not be in danger anymore.

"Got it, mother."

Shen Lian looked at Lin Ningxiu's worried expression, only felt warm in her heart, and responded obediently.

Although she doesn't plan to give up on this kind of thing, after all, what she picks is the most suitable, but she doesn't let her mother know, so why worry about it.

Shen Feiling on the side saw Shen Lian and Lin Ning's smiling appearance, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, but his face was still smiling, and his expression did not fluctuate.

"My mother can't take your things for nothing, this bracelet should be a gift from my mother."

Lin Ningxiu smiled and took off a bracelet from her wrist and put it on Shen Lian's wrist.

"This is given to the mother by the queen, there is only one pair in the world, you have a mother, how about it?" Shen Lian raised her wrist, and saw that the bracelet was crystal clear, full of green, and her snow-white skin was more and more verdant, looking extremely pleasing to the eye, it was really the best among the bracelets, much stronger than the one she wore on her wrist.

Shen Lian smiled slightly, "Then the daughter will thank her mother." ”

Although she is not particularly fond of jewelry, she does like the intimacy she has with her mother.

After gossiping for a while, Shen Lian sent a hairpin to Shen Feiling, then said that he wanted to rest, said goodbye to Lin Ningxiu, and Shen Feiling also came out.

"Sister stay!" Shen Lian was just about to leave, but she heard Shen Feiling shout, and said with a smile, "Ling'er and my sister haven't seen each other for a long time, and I miss them very much, I wonder if my sister is willing to go to the garden with my sister?" ”

"Thank you sister for your kindness, it's just that I'm a little tired today, but I'm going to disappoint my sister."

Shen Lian said to Shen Feiling with a polite smile.

Shen Feiling suddenly showed a disappointed look, but still said with a smile, "Then my sister won't disturb my sister's rest, and I'll bother my sister another day." ”

"Well, Sister Ling, I'll go back to the hospital to rest first, sister feel free."

Shen Lian bowed slightly at Shen Feiling, and then turned around and left after speaking.

Shen Feiling looked at the back of Shen Lian leaving, and his originally smiling face suddenly became gloomy.

The sun was shining, the flowers in the yard were blooming, a few butterflies were flying, and they looked like a great scenery, but Shen Feiling, who returned to the courtyard, was in an extremely gloomy mood.

An eight- or nine-year-old little maid was folding a few flowers and inserting them into the vase, and when she saw Shen Feiling coming back, she raised the vase in her hand with a smile, "Miss, you see how well this flower blooms, the slave maid is preparing to send it to the lady's room." ”

Shen Feiling raised his hand, and a slap hit the maid's face hard, the maid's thin body suddenly crooked, and the vase in her hand also fell to the ground with a "snap", instantly splitting apart.

"Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong, please forgive the lady."

Five bright red fingerprints appeared on the little maid Cai'er's cheeks, with tears in her eyes, but she hurriedly knelt in front of Shen Feiling and begged for mercy.

Although Miss used to beat and scold her sometimes, she had never been so angry as she was today, and although she didn't know how she had angered Miss, she could only hope that Miss would stop worrying about her.

A trace of sympathy flashed in Ying Er's eyes, who followed behind Shen Feiling, but he didn't dare to speak.

"Ahem......" There were a few slightly suppressed coughs in the room, and a sickly voice said, "But Ling'er is back?" Shen Feiling glared at the maid, didn't speak, walked straight into the room, looked at the charming woman sitting in the room, frowned slightly, and said with some unhappiness in her tone, "Why are you up?" I'm not in good health, so I don't lie down in bed and rest! He scolded the maid standing aside, "Mo'er, what are you doing?" My aunt is infected with the cold and doesn't know how to take care of her, so I don't want to help my aunt go back to bed and lie down! ”

"This ......" Mo'er looked at Shen Feiling, and then at Aunt Mo beside her, and was suddenly embarrassed.

Aunt Mo's face was a little pale, but she still couldn't hide her coquettishness, and she covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed a few times, then waved her hand and said, "This is what I mean, Ling'er, don't blame Mo'er anymore." ”

raised his eyes again and looked at Ying'er and Mo'er, and said in a deep voice, "I have something to say to Miss, you all go out." ”

Ying'er and Mo'er answered and retreated.

"I didn't go to greet the eldest lady when she returned home today, is Madam to blame?" Aunt Mo pulled Shen Feiling to sit down beside her and asked.

Shen Feiling pursed her lips, "No, my mother has always been kind-hearted, and she naturally won't say anything if she knows that you are cold, auntie." ”

"That's good, how does the eldest lady treat you?" Aunt Mo breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask.

A trace of annoyance flashed in Shen Feiling's eyes when he heard this, and he slapped the hairpin in his hand on the table, and said in a mocking tone, "This is a gift she gave me!" "It was a hairpin of very fine workmanship, made of gold throughout, and a few small rubies set at the hairpin, which looked very gorgeous.

"The eldest lady can give you such a valuable gift, it seems that she still has your sister in her heart."

Aunt Mo picked up the hairpin and looked at it, and said with a smile.

"Sister? Hum! On the surface, she looks kind to me, but in fact she looks down on me at all! Shen Feiling sneered and said angrily.

"Do you really think I can't see it? It's all the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, why do I have to be careful to please her in front of her?! "I haven't been back for seven years, why did my father and mother take her back at this time?! Why did she try her best to please her mother and didn't ask for the bracelet, and Shen Lian just got it as soon as she came back? Aunt Mo put down the hairpin in her hand, looking a little helpless, "Ling'er, it's all aunts who are sorry for you, and can't give you a good background, although you are also a young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but you are a concubine, how can you compare with the eldest lady!" ”

"Just talk to your aunt about these words, and you will have a better attitude when you see the eldest lady in the future, but you can't be as petty as before."

Shen Feiling looked at Aunt Mo's helpless expression, her heart became more and more depressed, her nails pinched her palms hard, her heart was full of unwillingness, and she was also a little resentful of Lin Ningxiu for a while.

Why did Shen Lian's mother come back with her heart full of her?! Is it just because Shen Lian is her mother's biological daughter? Then why has she been so good to her all these years, so good that she thinks that her mother really treats her as her own daughter.

She gritted her teeth, and her voice seemed to be squeezed out of between her teeth, full of pain, "Auntie, I'm unwilling!" ”

"Alas" Aunt Mo sighed, hugged Shen Feiling into her arms, patted Shen Feiling's back gently, and said lovingly.
