Chapter 13: The Shen Mansion Ten Years Later
"Yes." Steward Ma commanded.
"Fortunately, the owner of Meng Zhuang is sorry, and today the owner of Meng Zhuang went to the house to rest. It is rare for the owner of Meng Zhuang to come to the capital once, and then set off to go back after playing in the capital for a few days. Steward Ma turned to Master Meng and said.
Master Meng Zhuang and everyone hurriedly shook their heads and said, "No, then we will send people and go back directly, and now we can reach the next town before dark." The family's farm is almost ripe, and they are all waiting for us to go back. ”
Everyone nodded their heads.
Steward Ma looked at the frightened looks of everyone and was suspicious, but because of the insistence of Master Meng Zhuang and others, he no longer kept it, so he had to let his subordinates take out the money bags and give them to Master Meng.
When the owner of Meng Zhuang and the carriage arrived, he turned around and went back, and his back looked like he had fled in the wilderness.
Xu Shizi, Chen Gongzi and others laughed when they saw such a strange scene.
The carriage was much slower in the city, and the lively shouting of the streets came in from outside.
"This capital is really more lively than Huancheng, there are more people than Huancheng, and the storefronts are better than those in Huancheng." Dabao couldn't help but lift the curtains, and when he saw the lively scene outside, he couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
"Ah, what's that?"
"And that, what is that?"
"It looks delicious."
Dabao couldn't help but scream loudly when he saw the novelty of the excitement, and the sound was like a bell, attracting the attention of the surrounding pedestrians and diners in the restaurant.
The steward saw a swarthy figure in the carriage, which was more than twice the size of a normal woman, as strong as a black bear, holding a black flatbread in his hand, chewing and shouting loudly, the bread was broken and saliva spurted out of his mouth, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he stared at the roast meat by the stall. The steward shuddered and almost fell off his horse.
The others screamed when they saw it. The other subordinates of the Shen Mansion also turned pale with fright.
"Big bear, there's a big bear there in my mother, it's so scary······ Wow wow······" A child was so frightened that he hid in his mother's arms and cried.
"Miss." A timid young lady in the restaurant was frightened and fainted.
A clever little servant of the Shen family hurriedly went over and blocked the car window with his body at the signal of the steward Ma.
Dabao found that the roast meat he was staring at was gone, and he couldn't help but be anxious and pushed the black shadow in front of him away. The little guy said "ah~", his body fell to the ground like a fallen leaf, and he screamed in pain.
Hearing this, Steward Ma hurriedly stopped, trotted to the side of the little guy, and checked the little guy's injuries, "Ahem, Shen Wu, Shen Liu, you two come over and send him to the hospital." Steward Ma wiped the cold sweat on his face with trembling hands, and said, "Tell the doctor that the lumbar vertebrae are dislocated." ”
Dabao poked his head out of the car, looked at the little guy who was moved aside by his subordinates, and said disgustedly: "Miss, this man in the capital is too weak." The owner of Meng Zhuang was pushed twice by me, and he rode on his horse and continued to hurry, but I just pushed him and fell, and he was too weak. It seems that the men in this capital are not as good as those in my Huancheng, and the men in the capital are all soft-legged. ”
The steward shook his body as he listened, gritted his teeth and climbed back onto the horse. This time, he finally understood the horror in the eyes of Master Meng Zhuang and the others and the desolation at that time, so he fled.
Shen Yafei rubbed her eyebrows weakly. Before she arrived at the Shen Mansion, she had earned such a big reputation, and I really didn't know if the decision was right or wrong.
Zhiyu rolled his eyes and pulled Dabao back into the car.
On the way back, Master Meng and his three entourages were lying on the wooden cart, and their bodies trembled. I knew that I didn't want to ask for the grace of the Shen family, and I came to send Miss Shen Er to Beijing in person, and the big black bear around Miss Shen Er knocked down several of them along the way, if it weren't for the fact that I wanted to get to the capital quickly and get rid of them as soon as possible, I endured the pain and hurried, and now I don't have to lie in the car.
After the Shen family left, the people on the street began to discuss.
"Who's in this car? How could there be such a terrible person?
"yes, it's terrifying."
Several people who entered the city gate at the same time as Shen Yafei said: "It seems that at the city gate, I heard this horse steward calling the person in the carriage to be the second lady." ”
"By the way, I recently heard that the second lady of the Shen family is going back to Beijing from Huancheng, and the second daughter of General Shen must be on this carriage."
"But who is that woman who looks like a black bear?"
"It won't be Miss Shen Er's subordinates."
"I think I heard that black bear shouting Miss just now."
······
Xu Shizi and Chen Xiaogongzi looked at the lively citizens downstairs in the restaurant and laughed.
"Interesting, so funny. I didn't expect that there was such an interesting person next to the second miss of the Shen family. Chen Xiaogongzi laughed.
Xu Shizi's eyes flashed brightly, and he laughed with Chen Xiaogongzi.
Less than half a day after Shen Yafei entered the city, the news spread throughout the capital.
It is rumored by people in the city that Miss Shen Er came back from a mountain village with a big black bear with her. The voice was as bright as a bell, and the loud roar scared people into fainting. With a wave of his hand, he broke his spine. It's just vulgar and unsightly.
In other words, Shen Yafei followed Steward Ma all the way to the Shen Mansion, and General Shen and Mrs. Shen greeted everyone at the door, each with different activities in their hearts, but they were very curious about what these two young ladies would look like after ten years.
But Shen Ergongzi was impatient, in his heart, what Shen Yafei looked like had nothing to do with him, anyway, in his heart, his sisters were only Ru'er and Xin'er. He doesn't want that kind of vicious person to be his sister.
Shen Yuanshan glanced at him sharply, and Shen Mingshan immediately straightened his collar and stood up straight.
Steward Ma was at the front of the team, leading Shen Yafei's carriage slowly to the front of the Shen Mansion.
General Shen and Madame Shen greeted them.
General Shen saw that there was obviously a lack of people, his eyebrows furrowed inadvertently, and his sharp eyes glanced at Steward Ma. The horse steward smiled awkwardly.
Zhiyu lifted the curtain from the inside of the carriage, his face was not yet revealed, one foot stepped directly from the car to the outside, and then turned over on his side, and landed properly next to the carriage. It was exactly the same as the action of the peasant woman who got out of the car when he went to the farm on weekdays, and the horse steward was in a cold sweat.
The rest of the Shen family looked at it, they were all stunned, and opened their mouths in surprise. General Shen tugged at his mouth stiffly.
The horse steward was about to step forward to wake up everyone, at this time, the big hand that had been black reached out to the outside of the curtain, and a big strong leg comparable to the horse's leg stepped outside, and with the same action as Zhiyu, a black and black woman came out of the car.
Everyone was stunned, General Shen's brows were furrowed, and he reached out to support Mrs. Shen, who was almost pouting.
Before everyone could come to their senses, the black woman took a petite woman out of the car, put her on the ground, and put her hand on the crook of the woman's arm. The obvious difference in body shape and height makes the woman look like a rabbit caught by a big black bear, and the picture is extremely weird.
The woman is delicate and lovely, and her appearance is five points similar to Shen Yaru, especially the eyes and mouth are the most similar, from the familiar outline, everyone judged that this was Shen Yafei. Shen Yafei's gaze swept over everyone lightly, and she was very satisfied with the effect that Dabao brought to everyone.
General Shen tried his best to calm himself down, after all, among so many people, with the world he had seen, he could still hold up this meeting. General Shen pulled Mrs. Shen's sleeve without leaving a trace, and Mrs. Shen leaned weakly on General Shen's arm, unable to calm down for a long time.
Shen Yafei led the two of them to step forward slowly, bowed respectfully to General Shen and Mrs. Shen, and a few strands of green silk hung casually on his chest: "Yafei greets my father and mother!" He arched his hand to the side again: "I've seen the eldest brother, the second brother, and the eldest sister." ”
Shen Yuanshan swallowed his saliva and bumped Shen Mingshan on the side with the tip of his elbow, Shen Mingshan looked restrained, and his hand was still tugging at the corner of his clothes. Shen Yaru and Lin Wanxin stood beside them in a daze, their eyes wide open, and they couldn't turn around.
Mrs. Shen came back to her senses, her loving eyes fell on Shen Yafei's familiar face, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited, and gently took Shen Yafei's hand and said, "Fei'er~, it's good to be back, it's good to be back." The Summer Palace is ready, and the people are still the same as you used before. You go back and wash up first, and then we'll have dinner together." As he spoke, he stepped into the Shen Mansion.
"Yes!" Shen Yafei bowed and retreated, and followed behind Mama Zhu with Zhiyu and Dabao.
Such a steady appearance, General Shen and everyone were surprised.
"I think it was Fei'er who was by Aunt Sheng's side and was guided by Aunt Sheng." General Shen sighed with relief.
Mrs. Shen pinched the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her eyes, choked slightly, and said, "Yes, it seems that the original decision was right." ”
Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yaru nodded in agreement. Shen Mingshan didn't agree very much in his heart, but when he saw everyone's happy look, he couldn't bear to poke it. Lin Wanxin looked at everyone's expectant appearance, grabbed the handkerchief in her hand with both hands, and pulled hard.
"However, I don't seem to see Mama Li and Qiu'er Dong'er. Didn't they come back together? After Mrs. Shen calmed down, she recalled the scene of the meeting.
General Shen nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't see the three of them." However, the letter between Shenggu and Meng Zhuang did not mention the two. Let's wait for Fei'er to come over and ask again. ”
