Chapter 4: The Birthday Banquet 2
Shen Yafei sorted out the fluctuations in her heart, shook her sleeves, raised her calves and walked into the main hall.
"Mother." Shen Yafei walked up to Mrs. Shen and bowed.
Mrs. Shen was surprised by Shen Yafei's different etiquette and quietness from the past, and when she saw her almost plain white dress, she couldn't help but frown in annoyance, her face turned cold, and she said lightly, "Take a seat." โ
Shen Yafei sat down in an orderly manner. The eldest brother and eldest sister all glanced at her vigilantly, and Shen Yafei smiled lightly throughout the whole process, as if she didn't look at it. Then, the eldest brother gave her a warning look, turned his head, and ignored her.
Chun'er looked at Shen Yafei's expression in surprise, how could Miss seem to have changed today.
Shen Yafei seemed to sense her thoughts, and looked up at her with a smile. Chun'er immediately turned her head away with a weak heart. When she turned her head to look at Shen Yafei again, Shen Yafei returned to her previous appearance, as if it hadn't happened at that moment. Chun'er shook her head and stared at Shen Yafei's side face suspiciously, always feeling that something was wrong.
After a period of shabbyness, it was time to read the list. However, looking at the situation and the scene, the girl raised in this Shen family should be very popular. Most of the ladies in charge of the houses will no longer be heartbroken and hand over the gift boxes when they enter the house.
"Daddy wishes Xin'er a happy birthday." General Shen took a box of rosewood carved with gladioli and handed it to Lin Wanxin.
"Thank you, Daddy!" Lin Wanxin saluted, took the box, and said excitedly: "What is this?" โ
"Xin'er will know when you open it." General Shen touched Lin Wanxin's head lovingly.
"It's Honghe Yan!" The sharp-eyed academician of Qingsong Academy Songyan screamed.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but exclaim, there are only five of these Honghe inkstones so far, and they are the daughters of major literati and bachelors, but they didn't expect General Shen to be so generous, and to send a child's birthday so grandly, and
And she's just an adopted daughter. This degree of favor does not have to be the slightest difference between biological children, and it can be said to be even greater than biological children.
Lin Wanxin smiled mischievously: "Daddy sent this to Xin'er, if Xin'er doesn't become a talented girl, she can't live with her father." โ
"Haha!" General Shen looked at Lin Wanxin's playful appearance and laughed heartily, "Okay, okay, Daddy is waiting for the day when Xin'er becomes a talented girl." โ
"Xin'er likes your father's gift so much, and my mother dares to present my gift." Mrs. Shen said with a smile.
"Where is my mother's words, the gifts of my father and my mother, Xin'er likes it the most." Lin Wanxin was coquettish.
Mama Zhu, one of the four grandmothers beside Mrs. Shen, walked in from the main hall holding a piano at this time.
"Feng Lingqin!" There was another scream, and all the ladies and ladies present stretched their necks when they heard this, wishing that the eyeballs were on the piano.
If you want to say that this Hong and inkstone are precious, there are a few. And this Feng Lingqin is the only one in this world.
This phoenix lingqin was made by Emperor Suiling of the previous dynasty to his only wife, Empress Fengling, who fell in love with Empress Fengling at first sight at the age of six, and Empress Fengling was a famous talented woman in the previous dynasty, with a piano
The sound is even more exquisite in the world, in order to obtain her, Emperor Sui Ling did everything he could, collected all the treasures of the world, and invited the top fifteen luthiers at that time to spend ten years to make it, only gently plucking the strings, the sound is as crisp and pleasant as water droplets dripping into a copper basin full of water. When Emperor Suiling gave this qin to Empress Fengling, he promised: "One person for one life in this life!" "During the lifetime of Emperor Suiling, there was only one Empress Wind Spirit. Later, they all passed away, and the previous dynasty also perished. This piano has been circulated among the people, and it has been circulated in many people's hands, as long as the woman who receives this piano is favored by her husband for a lifetime. This is the luxury of a lifetime that a woman of time wants to seek even if she squeezes her head.
Shen Yafei looked at the Feng Lingqin in front of Lin Wanxin and the warm picture of the mother and son's filial piety, and lowered her head expressionlessly, feeling desolate in her heart.
Mama Hu and Chun'er behind Shen Yafei looked at Shen Yafei and smiled at each other.
Shen Yafei's brother and sister all gave Lin Wanxin well-prepared gifts.
When Mama Hu delivered the gift to Lin Wanxin, Lin Wanxin opened it and closed it immediately, still politely smiling and said to Shen Yafei: "Thank you Fei'er!" โ
Shen Yafei saw her expression and knew in her heart, it seemed that this gift was the same as the previous life, Shen Yafei also replied with a smile: "You're welcome." โ
General Shen and Mrs. Shen, who were standing beside Lin Wanxin, saw the contents of the box, their faces instantly sank, and their eyes could not hide their disappointment. And both her brother and sister looked at her with disgust.
Shen Yafei looked at them and raised the corners of her mouth and sneered.
Everyone looked at it and frowned, looking at the second miss of the Shen family is alimony. is such a gaffe on this occasion, it seems that it is true that the rumor that this Second Miss Shen does not attract General Shen and Mrs. Shen is true. This Shen family is really strange, this adopted daughter is afraid of melting in her mouth, but this biological daughter is so unfavorable.
"Feast!" Mrs. Shen entertained the guests casually, "I hope everyone has a good meal." โ
The servant served a dazzling array of delicacies, and everyone suddenly forgot about the abnormality in the banquet just now.
Shen Yafei left the table after eating two bites, and was led by Chun'er to Qinfeng Lake, and then asked Chun'er to spread a handkerchief on the stone by the lake and sit down.
"Miss." As soon as Shen Yafei sat down, Chun'er said indignantly: "The lord and the lady are really willing. I don't know, I think she is surnamed Shen! โ
After speaking, he carefully studied Shen Yafei's expression, Shen Yafei raised her head and glanced at her with a smile, then lowered her head and fascinated her eyes, and remained silent.
Chun'er chuckled in her heart, and always felt that today's young lady was a little strange.
Not long after she sat down, Xia Er led Lin Wanxin over, stopped five steps away from Shen Yafei, and stared at Shen Yafei with a calm face: "What is Yafei calling me to do?" โ
Shen Yafei looked at Lin Wanxin in surprise, she didn't react to what she was saying, and she was stunned. Seeing the person who stared at her nakedly, I was in a trance for a while before I realized that it wasn't a dream.
"What did Xin'er say? The two of us sisters will talk for a while, isn't it good to see the scenery by the lake here? Shen Yafei's mouth involuntarily popped out the same words as in her previous life.
"If you want to enjoy the lake or another day, there are still many guests waiting for me in the main hall today, Xin'er is afraid that she will not have this leisure and elegance." Lin Wanxin's face tightened and calmly refused.
turned around to leave, but was stopped by Chun'er, Lin Wanxin knew that Xia Er bypassed the green and brought her here, it must be ill-intentioned, but there are so many foreign guests here today, and Shen Yafei doesn't dare to do anything to her, even if it is really good, General Shen and Mrs. Shen will clean her up. Besides, Green Will definitely come to look for her if she doesn't come back for so long.
Lin Wanxin quickly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart.
"What do you want? Has Sister Mo Fei Yafei forgotten the lesson of the previous two days? Lin Wanxin was forced by Xia Er to take two steps back, looked at the lake not far from her behind her, and looked at Shen Yafei in disbelief.
"Guests? It seems that Miss Lin is going to change her surname, or does she not know that the surname in this house is Shen? Shen Yafei sneered.
"Don't you know what the surname of the General's Mansion is, Sister Yafei? Sister Yafei has not even forgotten who she is? is really worthy of the ancestor of the Shen family. Lin Wanxin sneered.
"She is really the daughter of the first talented woman in the Celestial Empire. Such sharp teeth. But have you got the true biography of a talented woman? Shen Yafei walked up to Lin Wanxin angrily.
Who in Beijing didn't know that Lin Damei, the first talented woman of the Celestial Dynasty, gave birth to Lin Wanxin before marriage, and was kicked out of the house by the Lin family, and later because she saved General Shen's life, she was orphaned before she died, and Lin Meiren was still a friend of Mrs. Shen before she left the cabinet, so the Shen family directly raised Lin Wanxin as their own daughter, but no one knew who Lin Wanxin's father was, so she followed her mother's surname Lin. People in Beijing say that Lin Meiren does not abide by women's morals and does not know shame, but no one dares to do anything to Lin Wanxin when there is a general's mansion, and no one dares to mention Lin Meiren in front of Lin Wanxin.
After listening to Shen Yafei's words, Lin Wanxin was annoyed, and pointed at Shen Yafei tremblingly, "You ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
"What are you?" Shen Yafei patted Lin Wanxin's hand, "A person who doesn't even know his father, a child born to a shameless woman, and dares to call Miss in the General's Mansion, I really don't know what to do." Do you think that you are a serious lady when you enter the General's Mansion? Do you think that after entering the General's Mansion, your mother is not a shameless person? I don't even know what my last name is. Do you think that if you enter the General's Mansion, you will be able to get the surname Shen?
occupies my land and robs the favor of my parents, who are really like your biological mother, shameless. โ
The more Shen Yafei spoke, the more angry she became, and she poked Lin Wanxin's shoulder with her finger as she spoke. It poked Lin Wanxin back, and when she was about to reach the edge of the lake, a hand reached over, and Lin Wanxin fell into the water with a thud.
"Miss!" The greenery that came to find Lin Wanxin screamed.
Shen Yafei looked at Lin Wanxin who was struggling in the lake in a daze, and watched her hands constantly waving on the water, rising and falling repeatedly.
Such a picture is repeated in front of you, and the mentality is different from the previous life. The panic in the previous life, the steadfastness and composure in this life, is much calmer in comparison, after all, it will be different from the previous life.
Chun'er and Xia'er were shocked by Shen Yafei's calmness, and the smile on the corner of her mouth made the two even more puzzled.
Shen Yafei glanced at the two of them coldly, took the expressions of the two into her eyes, sneered in her heart, and dared to calculate her. I can't clean them up now, and when I get out of this house, these people's lives are not at her mercy.
