Chapter 123: Dumbfounded
The snow on the road is difficult to walk, occasionally a few pedestrians rush by, the heavy snow closes the city, and every family nests at home for the winter.
The doors of the shops on the street were open, and there were few people to care about them, and there was silence all around.
The carriage drove down the road without hurry.
When he arrived at the gate of Zhang's mansion, Sheng Mingzhu handed over the invitation and walked towards the inner courtyard under the leadership of the people in the mansion.
The snow covers the ground, the cold pine and red plum stand proudly, and there is a feeling of coldness.
The servants of the house swept out a small path, followed the path, bypassed the verandah in the house, and before they reached the inner courtyard, they heard the joyful laughter of the girls in the courtyard.
Listening to the voice, it seems that there are still a lot of people here today.
Zhang Yuxin saw from a distance that the subordinate led a familiar figure over, and hurriedly left everyone to greet him.
"It's cold today, the snow has just stopped, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I still think you're not coming?" Zhang Yuxin greeted him affectionately, and just wanted to salute, he was held by Sheng Mingzhu, "What are you polite to me with, I can't use these false courtesies." ”
Zhang Yuxin stood up, raised her eyes and looked at her and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you seem to have grown a lot taller?" The face is also much better than before, how is the leg injury, and now the cold is still uncomfortable? ”
"It's almost better, and I stay in the house every day, as long as I don't get cold, I can't notice anything......"
The two walked while talking, and the little girls gathered here saw Sheng Mingzhu coming over and saluted one after another.
Sheng Mingzhu swept them one by one, some of them were ones she knew, and some were fresh faces she hadn't seen, and after a glance, there was no one of the familiar faces that were common in previous years.
I was wondering and curious, so I heard Zhang Yuxin say: "There are no outsiders, they are all some juniors in the family, boring for a few days, it is rare to get together, thinking that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't know how you are now, so I asked someone to hand you an invitation post, if you feel that it is cold outside, we will go to the house to sit and talk." ”
Zhang Yuxin said that he was about to call the servants in the courtyard to light the charcoal stove to warm the pavilion to prepare dim sum tea, Sheng Mingzhu saw this, and quickly stopped her with a smile, "I'm not a porcelain doll, can I use it so preciously?" Besides, I came to enjoy the snow, and I hid in the house, and how to enjoy the snow. ”
"The snow there is not a reward, it's just a reason, and in terms of nobility, there are still people in this capital who are comparable to your Fengyang County Lord, and the Hou Ye and your two brothers don't hold you in the palm of their hands as an eyeball, but I don't know how many girls in Beijing are envious."
"You! Just because I'm older than me, the light will laugh at me. Sheng Mingzhu turned his head and glared at her with a smile. Just now, I heard the lively voices of your people here, what are you talking about? So happy. ”
The girls next to her, when they learned Sheng Mingzhu's identity, were still a little jealous and restrained, but now they see her smiling amiably, and her appearance is bright and delicate, and they can't help but feel a little closer.
Just wanted to lean over, but when I heard what she asked, I froze my steps one after another, with a suspicious flush on my face, my eyes dodged, I glanced at each other, pursed my lips and grinned, but no one spoke.
Even Zhang Yuxin, who has always been steady and decent, looked a little unnatural.
Sheng Mingzhu just asked casually, and when she saw their expressions, she became more and more curious.
"What the hell is going on?" Sheng Mingzhu raised his eyebrows and deliberately teased: "Aren't you fascinated by that handsome boy?" ”
"What are you talking nonsense?" Zhang Yuxin said with a smile, and was just about to speak, when he heard several sisters next to him laughing and discussing.
"Isn't it? Such a fairy-like character, I can see that our sisters are ashamed of themselves, and today is an eye-opener, there is such a beautiful man in this world. ”
"Isn't it! I don't know whose son-in-law it is, how I have never seen it before, and I haven't heard of it, but when I came over just now, I saw that several of our sisters' eyes were straight. ”
"It's your eyes that are straight, but don't pull us up, and don't be ashamed to say this."
"Hehe, who kept staring at people's backs just now, they are gone, and they can't take their eyes off."
"How can I have it, don't talk nonsense......"
"Am I talking nonsense, you know it in your own heart, and you don't know which girl can be worthy of such a peerless son?"
"I said you? Gather your brains! I can't say that the son-in-law has already been married, and the children can run all over the ground......"
"Don't you want to think about it?"
Zhang Yuxin didn't speak, and the sisters next to her were already depressed and making a fuss.
Looks like I've really met an amazing person.
"Sister Zhang is the son of that family, so beautiful, so that you all boast of it in the sky and on earth." Sheng Mingzhu blinked, looked at Zhang Yuxin and quipped: "I knew that there was such a peerless beauty to see, I should have ......" The latter words were blocked in his mouth, Sheng Mingzhu sighed in his heart, the words peerless beauty swirled in his mind, and a familiar name was about to come out.
Childe, a peerless beauty.
There is no one person in Beijing who can deserve this title, except for one person, Sheng Mingzhu can't think of anything else.
A joking smile froze on her face, Sheng Mingzhu restrained her smile and said quietly: "Sister Zhang, do you know the identity of that son?" ”
"I don't know what the identity of that person is, but it shouldn't be from our Jingzhong." Zhang Yuxin glanced at the frolicking sisters next to her, and saw that they were quiet before she said: "I was far away just now, and I didn't see the worship post in his hand clearly, but the one who can be brought in directly by the people in the house is definitely not an ordinary person." ”
"Why don't you say you're from Beijing?" Sheng Mingzhu said strangely.
Zhang Yuxin squeezed her eyes at her and said with a smile: "You were indeed late just now, if you came half an hour earlier, you would have been able to see him, and you would have known why the younger sisters in the family were like this." ”
"There are bandit gentlemen, such as pondering, such as grinding, body like pine and cypress, face like jade, more cold and arrogant than the red plum on the snow, such a person is the focus of everyone when he goes there, if there is such a cold and peerless beauty in Beijing, it should have been famous, how can it be silent, none of us know."
Sheng Mingzhu nodded, I see.
Mu Changqing has a special identity, and has been imprisoned in the temple for many years, and Changning Houfu is a taboo thing that everyone avoids, no one should dare to publicize it everywhere without a long eye, Sister Zhang, they don't know, and they should.
"Sister Zhang, do you know what he is doing when he comes to the house?"
"Why are you curious? If you stay in my house for a little longer, you will see it with your own eyes, and you will not be able to take your eyes off it. Zhang Yuxin began to smile at her with a teasing face.
Originally, Sheng Mingzhu was joking with others, but in a blink of an eye, he changed his identity and became the object of ridicule in other people's mouths.
