Chapter 11: Ulterior Purpose
King Cheng Nan asked the name and gave the jade plate, what is the intention of keeping it all right, if the girl goes with the flow, she may be able to take back the family affairs together with the dowry!
"You think he's courting me because he likes it?" Shen Lanxi smiled and shook his head, "But I didn't know him before, and I didn't have any intersections, so why would he show favor to me because of one-sided relationship?" ”
"Maybe it's to see that the girl is good-looking and falls in love at first sight?" Begonia guessed.
My own girl followed the beauty of her wife, she was born beautiful, and it is not surprising that a man fell in love at first sight.
But Shen Lanxi didn't think so: "You also know that that is King Cheng Nan, not Cheng Nanhou or Cheng Nanbo." He has a respected status, and he has seen all kinds of beauties, and I am not a rare national beauty in a century, why did he fall in love with me at first sight? ”
"That..."Haitang opened her mouth, wanting to say that the other party might have taken a fancy to her own girl's dignified and virtuous lady.
But after thinking about it, she felt that King Cheng Nan could catch up so quickly, and he must have been near them at that time.
At that time, the girl just started with the second girl...
is neither pleasing and beautiful, nor is it pleasing and graceful, so it is difficult to say the reason for King Chengnan's actions.
"You think it's weird, don't you?" Shen Lanxi closed his eyes and sighed lightly, "I am now in the Shen Mansion controlled by the Cui family, walking on thin ice, everything needs to be weighed before acting." So I can't afford the jade card. ”
The jade card is not in her calculations, and she will not take it casually.
Begonia lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "It's the maid who didn't think it through." ”
After a pause, she asked tentatively, "That is the side of King Cheng Nan...?" ”
"Don't worry about it yet." Shen Lanxi said lightly, "If he has any thoughts, he will definitely make another move." Let's take a look at the side, and we'll understand. ”
"Slave understands."
After clarifying their doubts, Shen Lanxi's master and servant were no longer entangled in recent matters.
Walking slowly along the side streets, it was easy to pass the day.
At sunset, the red glow on the horizon is gradually growing.
Estimating that the hour was almost up, Shen Lanxi led Haitang back to the stop of the Shen Mansion's carriage.
"Sure enough!" Haitang said "phew" to the empty place, "I know that the second girl will take the carriage by herself first and leave the girl alone!" ”
"Reasonable." Shen Lanxi saw that there was no one here, so he turned around and walked directly to Shen's house.
If Shen Junqing deliberately waited for her here and pretended to be a sisterhood with her, she would have to be nervous and look at Shen Junqing.
But if Shen Junqing retaliates with this little means, she really has nothing to be angry about.
…
The sky was dark, and Shen Lanxi, who spent more than half an hour walking and eating, finally returned to the Shen Mansion.
As soon as she arrived, a figure rushed to the door: "Big girl, you can count it back, it's really good to wait!" You don't even look at what time it is now, the people who went out to look for it have run several times, and you are so good that you are only home at this time?! ”
Shen Lanxi took half a step without a trace, dodging the reprimand of the comer, as well as the spittle that fell with the reprimand: "Why is Mama Gong waiting for me here?" ”
The grandmother next to Cui's side is waiting for her here, is it Shen Junqing who is complaining?
Sure enough, before she thought of this, Mama Gong showed a hint of mockery on her face: "The old lady is waiting for you in Hechun Hall, big girl, please." ”
I beat the second girl, but I was embarrassed to ask why?
She didn't bother to explain, anyway, now that the master is on fire, this beating is indispensable for punishment.
