Chapter 13: The Festival of Lanterns

"Your master gave you to me." Sheng Mingzhu sat on the chair, poked the tea, and looked at his subordinates.

"The master said to let the gray clothes serve the young lady for half a year." As a commodity that has no love to be traded by the master, Gray Yi still stubbornly maintains his right to speak.

Sheng Mingzhu's eyebrows raised slightly, "I can't take care of what happens after half a year, and I won't be in charge of Miss Ben." But you're in my hands now. ”

Grey Coat: ...... He was speechless.

"I want you to help me do something", Sheng Mingzhu got up from sitting on it and walked to the gray cloth, "Spy on my mother, find Chen Zheng, and let him go." ”

The gray cloth raised his eyes and looked at Sheng Mingzhu again. He thought that the eldest lady wanted him to teach the whip on a whim, "Gray Collar Command." ”

——

Orders were received from the new master, but as a handicapped and loyal minion, Gray had not completely betrayed his old master. When he returned to Guan Ping, he trembled out all the things that Sheng Mingzhu had just asked him to do.

"Master, what does this Miss Sheng mean, do you want to do what she wants?" Spy on the Song family and release Chen Zheng, Gray Yi really can't think of anything that can be connected, "What does this eldest lady want to do?" If it was for her aunt, why would she release Chen Zheng. ”

Guan Ping smiled, "She wants to get rid of future troubles." ”

Born in a place like Bingzhou, it is rare for her to have a delicate heart.

Sheng Qian is old-fashioned, and he is too old-fashioned and emotional. If the Liu family is wronged, he has a big mansion, and there are only two women in total, who else can make trouble. I'm afraid that it can't be separated from the Sheng family's old mansion - Guan Ping knows that these big families have always liked to stretch out their hands, and they have to touch everywhere thoroughly.

"The relationship between Sheng and the Song family since he was a child is like a sister and a mother. No matter how much he really loves the Liu family, the Liu family is fine, and he won't do anything with the Song family. "But Sheng Mingzhu is different, she has no feelings for the Song family, so she forced her father to deal with it.

"Do as she tells you." Guan Ping was holding a teacup in his hand, blue and white porcelain, his fingers were pinched on it, and the roots were slender, "You have been with her for half a year." ”

Grey Coat: ......

"Master, are you serious?"

Guan Ping raised his head, the corners of his eyes were slightly hooked, and in the eyes of the old man, he was talking about fox eyes. But the tails of his eyes are very wide, and the outline of his face is clear, and there is no trace of femininity, but a kind of exquisite beauty, "When have I ever told a lie." ”

The gray clothes are bitter, he shouldn't come back, he shouldn't ask.

was sent once, and he had to experience the pain of the second time.

——

Sheng Qian was dealing with business at noon, and the Song family came with people and food boxes.

"Brother Qian'er, how is it today, are you busy with business?" Song handed out a handkerchief from his waist and wanted to wipe his sweat himself. Sheng Qian hid without a trace, and Song smiled, "It's a hot day today, so I brought you cold soup, and drinking it will relieve your fatigue." ”

"You've always been careful."

Song sat on the side, looked at his side face, and said in a soft voice, "Brother Qian, you and I used to be very close, but I found that you have been avoiding me recently. Is there something I haven't done well? ”

Sheng Qian shook his head, "Say something." He put down the bowl, "Maybe I've been busy with business lately." ”

Song nodded, hesitated, and then smiled again, "By the way, Brother Qian, there is good news, I want to tell you." ”

She put on makeup today, and combed her hair again, she originally belonged to a rich body type, and she looked like a person in her thirties, but after putting on makeup, she became younger and younger, and her smile dimpleed, and she was vaguely a little delicate.

"A few days ago, I felt a little uncomfortable, so I asked a doctor to come and see", speaking of this, Song's head hung slightly, looking a little ashamed, "Brother Qian, you also know." I've been taking medication all these years, and I didn't have much hope. Xu is blessed by the Bodhisattva, when the doctor came that day, he said that my body was almost well, I could be like a normal woman, pregnant and have children, I could have children. ”

When he said the back, Song's throat couldn't help but tremble.

After all, she has been looking forward to it for more than ten years, and she has regarded it as a dream, who would have thought that the dream could come true.

Sheng Qian was slightly stunned, and after a while, "That's good." ”

Song didn't expect him to respond like this, and the smile on his face froze. After a while, he took out his handkerchief again, "There is still something to do in the house, so I will stay soon." If you lack anything here, let Ma Wu send a message back, and I'll prepare it for you. ”

After saying that, he got up from his chair and prepared to go out.

"Sister ...... Evening Kither"

Song turned his head.

"It's okay, but I suddenly remembered the past." It's not easy to live in the mansion, and Song Wanzheng is one of the few people who is really good to him, "These days at the Lantern Festival, if you are idle and bored, you can also go out to play with the children." ”

Song covered his veil and smiled, "At such an age, how can you join this excitement." After saying that, he waved his hand and left.

After Sheng Qian left, the smile on his face gradually faded. Opened the corner that had been covered with a folding fan, and there were several letters there, all of which were from the Song family and the capital, and Sheng Qian was very familiar with it, and it was his mother.

——

These days, the whole city of Namisu is very lively, and the lantern festival and the streets and streets are turned into lantern streets.

The red lanterns are hung high, and the night is red and festive.

Maoshan is also home to outstanding people, and it can be regarded as a prosperous place in the state. At this time, it is the most lively there, Sheng Mingzhu and Lingzhu are both students there, and they basically go there at this time of year. The Lantern Festival is usually a festival for girls who have not yet arrived, and adults only go out for a stroll at night.

Yun Niang didn't plan to go to Maoshan with the two girls, after all, there were all young students, and she didn't have anything to say to some children.

"Okay, let's wear this, it looks good."

Huang's mother combed Sheng Mingzhu in a double ponytail and hung a string of bells on it. There is also a juju competition in the family study at night, and Sheng Mingzhu signed up when he was in high spirits before, and he could only wear a riding uniform, and his face was long.

"What's the matter, weren't you still elated when you had to compete before?"

She had a good relationship with Sheng Yan before, but now she has a bad relationship with Sheng Yan. Before Cardamom, Mu Shaoai, Sheng Mingzhu and Sheng Yan were all famous beauties in Maoshan Ethnicity. Sheng Yan is older and blooms, Sheng Mingzhu is young, no matter how beautiful she is, she is still childish.

It didn't matter before, but now that she is said to be good without cigarettes, she is not very happy in her heart.

"It's not good-looking."

"Isn't it pretty?" Yun Niang looked at her dazzling daughter, "If you feel that it is not suitable, let the tailor change it before he leaves." ”

She still grimaced.

"My sister is afraid that if she doesn't wear a skirt, she won't be able to hold cigarettes, and her sister will look good." Lingzhu said in one sentence, "It is said in the ethnography that Sister Sheng Yan is gentle and generous, has a good personality, and is the first name in the ethnology." ”

"Nonsense, she has a small nose and small eyes." Sheng Mingzhu walked up to the little bun Lingzhu and held her little face, "Stare at your eyes, who is better looking at her or me?" ”

Lingzhu's pair of watery black eyes were forced to only look at the face of her sister in front of her, as well as the swaying double ponytail, "Sister is the most beautiful." ”

"Good job".

After Sheng Mingzhu coerced Lingzhu, he still turned his head to look at himself in his glasses. She was wearing a red riding suit, red clothes and plain face, and a simple string of bells on her head, but she seemed to be a natural beauty.

A girl of this age is already looking the same day a day, and Yun Niang is also watching from the sidelines. The girl grew bigger and prettier.

Wearing riding clothes is also better than Sheng Yan, Sheng Mingzhu confidently looked at himself in the mirror.

"Who's that guy out there?" Yun Niang glanced at the gray clothes standing outside, and she could always see him for two days in a row.

"My new subordinate." Sheng Mingzhu said.

"Inferior?" Yun Niang's eyebrows raised, "Where did you come from?" Sheng Qian said that he wanted to find her a few personal maids, but he didn't say that he wanted to find a little maid.

"Mr. Guan sent it to me a few days ago, saying that he thanked me for taking it in." Sheng Mingzhu glanced at the gray clothes again, "Kung Fu is amazing." ”

"Mr. Guan sent it, Master Wu?" She frowned, and wanted to ask, but the time couldn't catch up. Sheng Mingzhu hurriedly put on his boots and was about to leave.

Yun Niang followed Huang's mother to send the two girls outside, and happened to meet Ping'er, who had just returned home, "Auntie...... Mingzhu, why do you dress up like this? Do you want to go outside to see the lanterns? ”

She glanced at Mingzhu, who only had a string of bells on her head, and was dressed in red. She still held her head high, and the expression on her beautiful face was still the same as before, and she couldn't help but touch the beaded flowers on her head. It was a piece of jewelry that she had been grinding for a long time from her aunt, and now it seemed that even a string of bells could not compare.

"I'm going to go to Maoshan, Mingzhu and they want to kick the ju."

Maoshan clan study, Sister Ping'er's eyes moved, and she said, "Auntie, I heard that there is a cruise there at night, and my niece also wants to follow and have a look?" May I? ”

Maoshan is a place where celebrities can only go to the state, and in the end, there are many plans for multiple back roads.

Yun Niang thought it wasn't a big deal. After all, it was his own niece, and he didn't think about it, so he quickly agreed. Mingzhu glanced at Sister Ping'er, didn't say much, and was quickly helped into the carriage by the gray clothes, and the gray clothes carried the spirit bead into the carriage again.

Ping'er was waiting for him to help herself, but the gray clothes were on the side with her hands behind her back, not moving.

"What do you mean, you minion? Don't you see that I haven't gotten into the carriage yet? ”

After scolding, she couldn't help but look at the sedan chair, Sheng Mingzhu had been at odds with her a few days ago, and it was hard to guarantee that she didn't deliberately embarrass her.

Gray Yi is a thug with a lot of inner drama, but he is still very cold on the surface. And if you judge people by their appearance, this girl's appearance is not the best that his grandfather can see, so there is no possibility of being sold in summary, ignore it.

"Auntie! Look at him! Her face turned from white to angry, and Ping'er turned her head and pulled Yun Niang to complain.

Sheng Mingzhu stuck out her head from the sedan chair, "If Cousin Ping doesn't leave, I'll leave first." ”

"That's not the subordinate in the house, it's the martial master that Mr. Guan gave to Mingzhu, Ping'er ......" Yun Niang whispered a few words next to Sister Ping'er.

"Catch the car!" Sheng Mingzhu gave an order, and the coachman got into the wheel. Sister Ping couldn't care about being reserved anymore, she even ran and jumped into the carriage, and when she entered the carriage, her sideburns were scattered, and she was facing a pair of bright eyes, and when she saw her, she quickly closed her eyes again. It's been like this these days, Sheng Mingzhu thinks she's a transparent person.

Ping'er shrank in a corner by herself, what kind of ability, just because she Sheng Mingzhu was born a good father and gave birth to a good face. God will never give her a lifetime of good luck.

Halfway through the car, Mingzhu opened the curtain, and the gray clothes were not far from the car window, she approached the window, and her voice was lazy, "How is it?" ”
