Sun was talking about Xingtou, but he didn't pay attention to Shen Yu's changes, and continued: "Today I heard the maid next to Mrs. Wu say that this invitation was personally sent to the Wu family by Mother Tao. Otherwise, this Miss Wu family would not follow Mrs. Wu out of the door no matter what. ”

Shen Yu looked in a trance, her head was dizzy, and the ghost looked back like a ghost.

Through the arch of hanging flowers, I saw Miss Wu bowing her head and smiling beside the old lady.

Shen Yu's mind was all on the birthday banquet, and she was only happy to accompany the old lady. After taking a closer look, I found that today's guests were really like what Sun said, and there were many girls.

This Miss Wu Xinping Wu is a well-behaved and weak girl, under the thick bangs on her forehead, there are a pair of clear eyes, graceful and lovely.

In front of Wu Xinping, the old lady smiled more than usual.

Shen Yu felt sullen in her heart, she worked hard for this birthday banquet, just to make the old lady happy and find pomp for the Sheng family.

But she never thought that all this she had painstakingly arranged was actually to make wedding dresses for others.

"It's a good thing for the second master to get married, and my sister-in-law will also go to Heshoutang to advise the old lady." Shen Yu said expressionlessly, and walked out angrily.

Now, she can't wait to leave Heshoutang quickly, Wu Xinping, and those flowery and bony young ladies of the family, she doesn't want to see any of them.

Shen Yu lowered her head and walked out, and met a person at the door of Heshoutang.

She took it for granted that she was a guest who had come to visit the old lady, so she turned her head to the side, but unexpectedly, the man had a very tacit understanding and also turned to the side.

Shen Yu to the left, he to the left, she to the right, he also to the right.

After doing this two or three times, Shen Yu was a little annoyed, and when she raised her head, she bumped into a pair of clear eyes.

Sheng Yanqing looked at her with a smile: "This young lady, what are you thinking when you walk with your head down?" ”

The last person Shen Yu wants to see now is him, and he said angrily: "I can't see it, can't you see it either?" ”

Sheng Yanqing heard that her tone was wrong, and she didn't have the heart to joke, so she said gently: "What's wrong?" Who upset you? I'll teach him a lesson for you. ”

"You'll know when you go, grandmother is waiting for you!" Shen Yu turned her head and looked at Wu Xinping beside the old lady.

She didn't wait for Sheng Yanqing to answer, and walked out with her head down.

Sheng Yanqing's second monk was confused, and Mother Tao greeted at the door and said, "Second young master, the old lady is waiting, why did you come over for so long?" ”

Sheng Yanqing shook his head and stepped into the living room.

Seeing that there were other guests there, Sheng Yanqing bowed his hand slightly, and greeted a few familiar people, and he saw Wu Xinping beside the old lady.

"Brother Yanqing, what do you see me doing, don't you know me if you haven't seen me for a few years?" Wu Xinping said with a smile.

Sheng Yanqing thought about it for a while, he has been busy with business in the past few years, Tongcheng and Qingshui Town are running at both ends, and he doesn't remember that he knows such a sister.

Wu Xinping put her hand on her head, stretched out two fingers, compared to rabbit ears, and said, "Brother Yanqing, have you forgotten, I raised a rabbit before, sneaked out and ran into your tea garden, and you helped me catch it." ”

"It's you." Sheng Yanqing finally remembered, he smiled with relief, "I haven't seen you for a few years, I can't recognize you anymore." ”

Four or five years ago, Sheng Yanqing did help someone catch a rabbit.

That year, Wu Xinping followed her family back to her hometown to worship her ancestors, and the pet rabbit she raised ran away and got into the tea garden of the nearby Sheng family, and Sheng Yanqing kindly beckoned the guy to catch the rabbit back.

At that time, he also joked, "If such a fat rabbit falls into the hands of the tea plantation workers, there will be meat to eat tonight." ”

Wu Xinping was still young at the time, and when she heard him say this, her face immediately changed, and she turned her head and left with the rabbit in her arms.

Four or five years have passed since the incident, and Sheng Yanqing has the impression that Wu Xinping is still a little girl who will cry her nose because of a rabbit, and it is difficult to connect with the slim girl in front of her.

Seeing the two of them saying something that only they could understand, the old lady and Mrs. Wu secretly exchanged glances.

The ladies of the family who came to the banquet in the room dressed up in fancy clothes collapsed their faces, and they died down one by one, and they were not in the mood to chat and drink tea.

The old lady said: "Yanqing, you take Xinping to the back garden for a walk, I heard Ayu say this morning that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond have come out of the flower bones." ”

Shen Yu stood outside the courtyard gate, and she could see the expressions of several people in the room through the hollow shadow wall. Although she couldn't hear what she was saying, seeing the smile on Sheng Yanqing's face, her heart was even more blocked.

Seeing the two of them walking out one after the other, Shen Yu was afraid that she would find out that she was listening to the corner, so she left before them. She went into the back garden and hid behind a neatly trimmed holly.

Shen Yu squatted behind the bushes and sulked, not paying attention to the fact that there was another person in front of her.

Shen Huai'an coughed, and Shen Yu was shocked when she stood up and shook the folds on her skirt.

Shen Yu was about to leave, but Shen Huai'an followed and said, "I heard that you are now a housekeeper, didn't you personally place the invitation I received?" You invited me to come, why did you avoid me? ”

Shen Yu said: "I am now a housekeeper, but don't forget, I still have a grandmother above me." Inviting the Shen family to the banquet was grandmother's meaning. ”

"Grandmother......" Shen Huai'an repeated these two words, and suddenly smiled, "You really think of yourself as a member of the Sheng family now?" ”

"But have you ever thought that you have done your best for the affairs of the Sheng family, and the Sheng family treats you as their own family? If I hadn't saved you in the lotus pond that day, I'm afraid you would have drowned by now. ”

He took a step forward, stood in front of Shen Yu, looked at her seriously, and said, "Ayu, you are a smart person, stop doing these thankless things." ”

Shen Yu's eyes were a little evasive, how could she not know that in the old lady's heart, she was always an outsider.

In order to protect Sheng Yanqing, the old lady could put all the blame for fornication on her. In the future, whenever there is a conflict of interest, she will be the first to be abandoned.

Shen Yu once thought that she was not an old lady or a big lady in the Sheng family, she was for Sheng Yanqing and for the future of the two of them.

But now, thinking of Sheng Yanqing and Wu Xinping standing together, she couldn't help but think that she might really be making wedding dresses for others when she did all this.

Seeing that Shen Yu was a little shaken, Shen Huai'an reached out and pressed her shoulder, and followed the temptation, "Ayu, only I am wholeheartedly devoted to you, come with me and leave the Sheng family." ”

Not far away by the lotus pond, Sheng Yanqing was seeing this scene, Shen Huai'an's hand was on Shen Yu's shoulder, and Shen Yu turned his back to him, bowing his head in contemplation.

Not far away, Sheng Yanqing paused halfway through his words.

Wu Xinping was a little curious and wanted to turn around, "What's the matter, Brother Yanqing, what are you looking at?" ”
