Shen Yuan looked at the box, a little curious in his heart, and wanted to open it, but was stopped by Zhong Rou, "Since it is a big wedding, it can only be opened on the day of marriage." ”

Shen Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Zhong Aya, who didn't know anything on the side, was immediately dissatisfied, and complained to Zhong Rou: "Third sister, you prepared a gift for the county lord, why didn't you know about me, so I didn't bring anything." ”

Zhong Rou only glanced at her coldly and said, "It's already a big gift for you to say less." ”

Zhong Aya was angry in her heart, this is still not her own sister!

Suddenly, Zhong Aya didn't know what she thought, her eyes rolled, and she said to Shen Yuan: "County Lord, I have also prepared a gift for you, but I think you can give it to you on the day of your wedding?" ”

It is true that many guests will be invited on the day of marriage, and there will be a lot of gifts received on that day, which is something that cannot be refused.

"Hmm." Shen Yuan replied softly.

Zhong Aya's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "Then, the county lord, can you invite me to participate on the day you and the prince get married?" ”

Shen Yuan knew in her heart that Zhong Rou and Zhong Aya were not the concubines of the Zhong family, they were concubines, and on the occasion of her and Wei Yan's marriage, they were naturally not qualified to participate as concubines.

"Zhong Xiaoliu, you shut up for me." Zhong Rou warned in a deep voice.

Zhong Aya was biased, pulling the hem of Shen Yuan's clothes and coquettishly, "County Lord, we are already so familiar, I really just want to participate in your wedding." ”

Zhong Aya didn't seem to take what Shen Kite said on the polo field that day to heart, and still clinged to Shen Kite and didn't let go.

"The list of guests was decided by Concubine Xu of the Qin Palace, if Miss Zhong Liu wanted to participate, she could ask Concubine Xu what she meant. Now the lord of this county doesn't care about anything, he only waits for marriage in the mansion with peace of mind. Shen Yuan can be regarded as giving Zhong Aya enough face.

Zhong Aya was obviously a little lost, she originally thought it was just a matter of Shen Yuan's words, but she didn't expect to ask Concubine Xu.

Xiao Tao brought tea and pastries, Zhong Aya took a ruyi cake and ate it in small bites, chewed two bites, covered her lips with a handkerchief, and glanced at Xiao Tao, "This pastry is so sweet, dare to serve it." ”

Shen Yuan's taste is sweet, and the sweetness of this wishful cake is just right for Shen Yuan, but it is too sweet for Zhong Aya, who doesn't like to eat sweet.

"County Lord, this maid doesn't look very smart, it's better to change it as soon as possible."

Shen Yuan took a sip of flower tea, the mist was thick, and he lowered his eyes and did not respond.

Zhong Rou couldn't bear it anymore, so she got up and pinched Zhong Aya's arm and wanted to pull her away, "The gift has been delivered, and the courtier will take Xiaoliu back first." ”

Who knew that Zhong Aya waved Zhong Rou away, not caring at all that she was still pregnant, "I still haven't said anything to the county lord, if you want to go back, you go back first!" ”

Zhong Rou was caught off guard, her figure staggered back two steps, and there were several stone steps behind her, if Zhong Rou fell, the consequences would be unimaginable, Shen Yuan was so frightened that she immediately stood up.

"Third Miss, be careful!" Fortunately, Xiao Tao reacted quickly and hurriedly went over to support her.

Zhong Rou's face was not very good, as if she was frightened.

And Zhong Aya, who was facing away from Zhong Rou, didn't know what she had done, but asked Shen Yuan excitedly: "County Lord, I heard that there is even a concubine in the backyard of the prince, no, there is not even a connecting room, is it true?" ”

Zhong Aya has no intention of harming people, she is not a great evil person, but she is very dependent on others in character and has a strong sense of vanity. In Shen Yuan's opinion, such a person is just a clown who jumps off the beam, so she has never done anything to Zhong Aya, blindly ignoring Zhong Aya, after all, she has no obligation to help the Zhong family teach her daughter.

However, the question Zhong Rou asked now is about Wei Yan, the person Shen Yuan put on the tip of his heart.

The originally lazy peach blossom eyes have changed a little at the moment, and the dark pupils gather a cold light that is not easy to detect, and they are soon disguised by a false smile, so that people can't notice anything unusual.

"Xiao Tao, Miss Zhong San is frightened, you take her down to rest, and ask the house doctor to show Miss Zhong San." No matter what Zhong Aya is, it has nothing to do with Zhong Rou, and she also has faint expectations for the child in Zhong Rou's womb.

Xu is out of curiosity, but also out of instinct as a woman.

Zhong Rou wanted to speak and stopped, Shen Yuan smiled and took a step ahead of her and said, "Since Miss Zhong Liu still has something to say to the county lord, then let's finish talking and then leave." ”

Zhong Aya was naturally willing, but for some reason, it was obvious that Shen Yuan smiled very gently at her, but her heart was a little hairy.

Zhong Rou heard the threat and displeasure in Shen Yuan's tone, and stroked her stomach with one hand, Zhong Xiaoliu should really learn a lesson, otherwise it will always be like this.

"Thank you, Lord County." Zhong Rou no longer cared about Zhong Aya, and let Xiao Tao help her down to rest.

From pregnancy to the present, she has used fetal gas twice because of Zhong Aya's unreasonable trouble.

She now has her own flesh and blood in her belly, and she will also selfishly put the child first, and she will not devote too much energy to Zhong Aya in the future.

Without Zhong Rou by her side, Zhong Aya felt relaxed all over.

Shen Yuan took her to walk in the garden, Zhong Aya saw the autumn hibiscus in the flower bed, and couldn't help but pick one, "Isn't this autumn hibiscus a flower that can only be grown in the palace?" ”

Shen Yuan couldn't help frowning, a dark glint flashed in his eyes, "Some time ago, Shizi asked people to transplant a few plants. ”

I don't know if Wei Yan did it on purpose, he dug ten autumn hibiscus from the front of Empress Qin's Weiyang Palace and let her plant them. Shen Yuan also knew that this autumn hibiscus was good-looking, and it was something that Wei Yan had taken the trouble to give her, so she was naturally happy in her heart.

So she has been taking care of it by herself, and finally when it blooms, she is reluctant to pick a petal, but Zhong Aya directly picks one.

The more angry he was in his heart, the deeper the smile on Shen Yuan's face.

"The prince is really good to the county lord, I really don't know why my father keeps saying bad things about the prince, and he also said that my brother's leg was broken by the prince before, and now he is still lame when he walks." The brother in Zhong Aya's mouth is Zhong Cun, but Zhong Rou is not close to him and doesn't like him.

"I really envy that the county lord can marry the prince, but my father set a baby for me when I was born, and I will marry after I am married, so I don't want to!" Zhong Aya hated it to death when she mentioned her doll, how could that kind of person marry her, and she didn't pee to find her own appearance!

Speaking of what he was angry about, Zhong Aya threw the words of his hand on the ground, pulled Shen Yuan's arm and said aggrievedly: "So the county lord, you have to help me, I really don't want to marry a nine-grade sesame official, even if it is a wife, I won't marry, I would rather go to Gaomen as a concubine." ”

Being a concubine in a high door is also a little stronger than being a wife in a cold door.

Shen Yuan broke free of his hand without a trace, squatted down and picked up the autumn hibiscus on the ground, "How do you want me to help you?" ”

Zhong Aya was waiting for Shen Yuan's words, and she asked squirmingly: "County Lord, you see that the prince of the world didn't accept a concubine in his backyard, and the two of us are good friends, after you get married, do you think I can also follow into the Qin Palace?" ”
