provocation
At night, Shen Huai and Qi Rin mentioned that she was going out to play.
Unexpectedly, Qi Rin agreed without hesitation, and even Shen Huai didn't want to give in to shake to follow, he agreed.
Towards the end of dinner, Qi Rin casually mentioned, "I brought a cook back, if you want to eat anything, let him make it." ”
Standing on the sidelines, silently acting as a sculpture, Bu Shao's hand trembled.
The cook you brought with you to Qionghua Mansion was so lightly introduced.
Shen Huai nodded, lowered his head and took a sip of soup.
After a few days, Shen Huai picked a sunny, windless, snowless weather and went out with Shu'er.
Bu Shao also listened to Shen Huai's words and did not follow along.
Although the weather is bad, it still can't stop the enthusiasm of the hawkers in the capital.
With Shen Huai's clever mouth, Shu'er and Shen Huai were able to get out of a group of aunts who were gossiping about recommending items.
"Miss, they're so enthusiastic." Shu'er was still holding a small silk flower in her hand, which she had just bought at a stall.
Different from the fear on Shu'er's face, Shen Huai was relieved.
In this world, people always have to have some means in order to survive.
"Qionghua Building ahead?" Shen Huai squinted at a building directly in front of him.
Shu'er stepped forward quickly, and only trotted back after seeing it clearly.
"Miss, the front is indeed Qionghua Building, do you want to go over and get it?"
Shen Huai nodded, and Shu'er pushed her over.
Qionghualou has a long history in the capital, and it is said that it has a century-old heritage.
There is a world in this building, which is divided into three, six, nine and so on.
If they are ordinary people, they can only eat on the first floor, while those who are prominent officials can increase in order of financial resources.
When Shen Huai and Shu'er came in, they really attracted the attention of everyone.
First, Shen Huai's appearance is really outstanding. Second, in this well-dressed crowd full of buildings, Shen Huai and Shu'er looked out of place in their dresses, as if they had strayed.
Shu'er felt different scrutiny from all directions, and touched her earrings with some nervousness.
It was a simple pair of shell earrings that weren't worth much.
Maybe Shen Huai and the others looked really shabby, but there was no little guy who was willing to come forward to serve.
Shen Huai didn't care about this, and only let Shu'er push her all the way to the stairs on the second floor.
Unsurprisingly, the two were stopped.
What stopped Shen Huai was a woman with mean eyebrows, wearing a long red dress and a few skein gold bracelets on her hands.
In the middle of the action, the gold bracelets collided and made a soft sound.
Shen Huai raised his eyes to look at her.
But I saw the woman playing with her dancôme nails, singing and sighing, "This second floor is not where cats and dogs can go up." ”
When Shu'er heard this, her body trembled.
How could this woman humiliate the young lady like this.
Shu'er wanted to compete with the woman at the moment, but was stopped by Shen Huai.
She took out the jet-black sign from her arms, put it in her hand and checked it, "Cats and dogs? ”
The woman raised her eyebrows and was about to humiliate Shen Huai again, but she accidentally caught a glimpse of the sign flying up and down, with four big gilded characters on it.
Nine Yuan Chamber of Commerce.
In the next second, the expression of the woman in red was frozen, and her lips opened slightly, which was very funny.
Shen Huai glanced at her, "What, am I qualified to go up?"
Shen Huai's words were like a deafening bell, waking up the stunned mind of the woman in red.
"Of course, of course." The woman groveled and lowered her posture very low, "Please." ”
Shen Huai swept the woman lightly, turned around and called Shu'er, and asked her to push herself up.
The decoration of Qionghua Building is extremely magnificent, that is, the steps are covered with blankets embroidered with gold thread.
However, no matter how beautiful it is, it can't change the fact that it's a staircase.
Shen Huai felt that the few steps were about to tear up the bones on her body.
"Miss, but you still have to go up?" Shu'er parked her wheelchair in an open space on the second floor and asked in a low voice.
Shen Huai glanced at the long steps and rubbed his shoulders with his backhand.
"No, let's eat here."
She didn't want to get sore for a meal.
Shu'er responded in a low voice, pushing Shen Huai towards the inside.
Along the way, there was a maid with good speech and demeanor who wanted to come over to lead the way, but was politely declined by Shen Huai.
"Miss, it's here." Shu'er pushed Shen Huai all the way to a private room on the far right.
Shen Huai nodded, and just when he wanted to go down with Shu'er's hand, a sharp voice came from behind the two.
"Yo, who else should I be, it turned out to be our Miss Shen." Shen Yuan pulled the handkerchief and covered her lips and giggled, and the female relatives standing beside her also leaned back and fell behind with the smile.
"Ayuan, is this really your sister? Why don't you look like you at all, and this dress ......" The young lady in a lake-green lily skirt suddenly exclaimed, frowning and critically looking Shen Huai up and down.
Then he covered his mouth and nose in disgust, as if Shen Huai was some kind of mobile germ.
"But isn't it, she has nothing to do with our Shen family in the first place. If it weren't for the kindness of my father and second uncle who took her in, she wouldn't know where she would be now. Shen Yuan listened to the condemnation of Shen Huai one after another in her ears, and couldn't help but feel a little fluttery.
What's more, in the face of their provocation from beginning to end, Shen Huai didn't react, just sat there quietly, his eyebrows and eyes calm.
This made Shen Yuan think that she was scared, and unconsciously forgot the scene when she was in the Shen Mansion before when she was cleaned up by Shen Huai.
"I said, look at that fox, she doesn't look like the Shen family." The girl in the lake-green skirt before saw that her words had pleased Shen Yuan, and she fought harder against Shen Huai.
"That's right, how can there be Ayuan's dignified atmosphere." The other woman standing behind Shen Yuan also chimed in.
"It's just ......"
Listening to the malicious speculation and comments of those people in her ears about Shen Huai, Shu'er trembled angrily, but one of her hands was tightly pulled by Shen Huai, and she was not allowed to step forward.
By the time those people had said almost everything they should have said, they laughed almost as much as they could. Shen Huai swept those people one by one coldly, his eyes were calm and deep, but it made those people shudder.
"Let's go." Shen Huai was the first to speak, turning around and wanting to leave.
Shen Yuan was still in the cold of Shen Huai's glance just now, and she didn't react until she was poked by the people around her.
She wanted to leave when she saw Shen Huai turn around, and then thought that she was shocked by Shen Huai's understatement just now, and she was naturally ashamed in her heart.
