Chapter 6: Currying Favor (II)

Looking at the eldest granddaughter in front of her, who was bent on pleasing herself and well-behaved, the old lady was actually quite happy, and her heart softened, and she felt a little close, so she didn't refuse her, and said: "Come if you want to, it's not necessarily good to be stuck in the yard." ”

Xiao Shi was on the side, and couldn't help frowning when she heard this, she didn't understand why Shen Yuechen suddenly changed her temper today, and became so diligent, if she was allowed to come over every day to ask for peace and please the old lady in the future, then her status in the Shen family would definitely improve, and besides, she was still the eldest daughter and a descendant......

When Shen Yuechen first entered the mansion, because she looked sick, the old lady specially asked her to send a message, asking her not to come over every day to say goodbye, firstly, because she was taboo that she would collide with herself, and secondly, because she didn't like to see her.

At that time, although Shen Yuechen, who had just returned home, had adapted to the life of ancient times, she was still repulsed by this "new home", and in addition, there was a soul in her body that had crossed over from modern times, and she was very tired of kowtowing, and she knew very well that the old lady was not happy to see her, even if she asked for peace every day, she might not be able to please the old lady, and maybe it would backfire. Instead of annoying people every day, it is better to come to the scene on the fifteenth day of the first month of the month.

Originally, Shen Yuechen wanted to continue to be an invisible person in the Shen family as before, until he found a suitable opportunity to get out of here. Now that she's fifteen years old, she has to plan for a lot of things.

When she returned to the Shen family, she was forced to decide by the situation, and she couldn't make her own decisions, and she couldn't refuse. However, she wants to take her future destiny into her own hands.

After a few words of greeting, Aunt Feng, who had been standing next to her without speaking, took the opportunity to come over and salute Shen Yuechen, brought the brocade and said, "Big girl, please take a seat." ”

Shen Yuechen smiled and thanked him, and sat down slowly without giving in.

Although Feng and Wan are both Shen Zhijian's concubines, their status is very different. Feng was originally just a third-class maid who did chores in the West Courtyard, from a humble background, without relatives and no support, because of her good looks, she was favored by the Xiao family and given to Shen Zhijian as a concubine, so she got the title of an aunt.

Feng is introverted, usually doesn't like to talk, and seems to be a very honest person, Shen Yuechen is not impressed by her, but she is polite every time they meet.

Shen Yuechang stood up lightly, raised her eyes to look at the clothes and jewelry on Shen Yuechen's body, and secretly pursed her lips, feeling a little unhappy.

Those two Hangzhou silks were not a rare thing for Shen Yuechang, but the old lady rewarded them, which still made her feel a little mindful.

After all, I haven't seen anything in the world, but I just rewarded her with a little something, and I was happy to show off with my tail cocked.

At this time, the maids brought refreshments, and Shen Yuechang personally picked up a plate of glutinous rice cold cake and sent it to Shen Yuechen, and said with a smile: "This is a glutinous rice cold cake made by Ruyi Bakery, my sister must have never eaten it, hurry up and try it?" ”

She knew that Shen Yuechen rarely had the opportunity to eat such expensive dim sum, so she said this deliberately.

Shen Yuechen smiled when she heard this, naturally she didn't care about these little things with her, raised her hand and picked up a piece of cold cake, took a small bite, and tasted the taste carefully, without making a sound at all.

Seeing her eating sweetly, Shen Yuechang sat back unconsciously, lowered her head and took a sip of tea, and suddenly frowned: "Why is the tea so hot?" ”

Chun Ming, the second-class maid in charge of tea in the old lady's room, heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and curts, "The slave will make another cup for you immediately." ”

In fact, this tea has already been dried, and it is warm and just in the mouth.

Shen Yuechang put down the cup and said angrily: "The weather is so hot, why do you still have hot tea?" Give me a change for the cool one. ”

Chun Ming bent his knees again and said, "Miss just had dinner, if you drink herbal tea, I'm afraid it will hurt your stomach......"

Shen Yuechang thought that she had too many words, and before she could finish speaking, she waved her hand impatiently and said, "Forget it, you don't need to change it, it's so troublesome to have a cup of tea." After speaking, in order to express his dissatisfaction, he put the tea bowl on the table again.

The old lady frowned, looked at Shen Yuechang, and was about to speak, when a clear children's voice came from outside the door, "Grandmother, mother." Then, I saw Shen Zhijian leading a little boy with a tiger head into the house.

The child looked like he was about three or four years old, with red lips and white teeth, eyebrows and eyes very similar to Aunt Wan, a small face with pink and moist flesh, and a staggering walk, which looked very cute.

He is Shen Zhijian's second son, Shen Mingfang, who just turned four years old this year, and usually likes old ladies.

As soon as the old lady saw him, she immediately had a smile on her face, and beckoned to him, "Brother Fang, come here for grandmother." ”

Aunt Wan also raised her head and looked at him with a smile, the originally programmed smile on her face changed suddenly, and her eyes were gentle as if they were about to drip water.

After Shen Mingfang was full moon, he was sent to the Xiao family to raise him like his brother Shen Mingde, although Aunt Wan was anxious, but because of her status as a concubine, she could only endure this breath silently.

Because the Xiao family has no son, Shen Zhijian has been asking the old lady to put his two concubines under the name of the Xiao family, and change from concubines to concubines. However, the old lady refused to nod her head in agreement, hoping that Xiao would conceive a son again in the future.

As soon as Shen Mingfang let go of his father's hand, he ran towards the eldest lady, and almost fell down halfway, but fortunately, Aunt Wan quickly reached out to protect him, and then sent him hand in hand to the old lady.

Shen Mingfang threw herself into the old lady's arms, like a puppy, rubbing and spoiling.

The old lady stroked his back and coaxed softly: "Our brother Fang, are you good today?" Is the dinner delicious? ”

"My grandson asked my grandmother to say goodbye, my grandson was very well-behaved today, and he ate a very fragrant dinner." Shen Mingfang raised his head, saluted as if he was in shape, and as soon as he finished speaking, he snuggled into the old lady's arms with his head bored.

Aunt Wan had already retreated to the side at this time, but her eyes had been on Shen Mingfang's body, and she was unwilling to take it off for a moment.

Xiao raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, then stood up, deliberately hugged Shen Mingfang, who had been tired of being in the old lady's arms, and smiled faintly: "Brother Fang is obedient, come to my mother, don't let my grandmother suffer." ”

As soon as Shen Mingfang arrived in her arms, she immediately became honest, stopped moving, lowered her head slightly and said, "Yes, mother." ”

Seeing this, Aunt Wan's face suddenly became a little ugly, her eyes were full of anger, and her uneasy eyes flew towards Xiao Shi obliquely, but Xiao Shi only didn't see it, hugged Shen Mingfang and sat down, just facing Shen Yuechen.

Shen Yuechen rarely comes out and walks around, and he has never had a chance to take a closer look at this little cousin. That Shen Mingfang saw that she was also blind, sitting in Xiao's arms and looking at Shen Yuechen all the time, her big eyes blinking.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen smiled at him and said, "Brother Fang, do you still recognize who I am?" ”

Seeing her talking to herself, Shen Mingfang raised her head and cautiously looked at Xiao Shi, and asked softly, "Mother, who is this sister?" ”

Xiao Shi smiled and said: "Little foolish thing, this is your lobby sister, the eldest daughter of your uncle's family." With that, he hugged him to the ground, nudged his back, and motioned for him to come over and say hello.

Shen Yuechen saw him looking at him timidly, so he took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said in a gentle tone: "I don't often come out and walk around, no wonder you don't recognize it." Come over and let my sister take a good look. ”

Shen Mingfang walked straight over, and when she walked to her, she smelled the faint sandalwood fragrance on her body, and then raised her head and said, "My sister has a fragrant fragrance." ”

Shen Yuechen touched his head with a smile, "It's the smell of sandalwood." ”

Shen Mingfang is usually used to smelling the fat powder on the maid's mother-in-law, and she only feels that the sandalwood fragrance on her body smells good and fresh.

Shen Yuechen teased Shen Mingfang a few times with a smile, and was very close to him. Later, Shen Mingfang sat in her arms all the time, pulling her sleeves and coquettishly, looking up with a little face and constantly asking questions.

Seeing that the two of them got along well, the old lady smiled slightly, withdrew her gaze, looked at the teacup in her hand, and suddenly remembered the matter of the Zhu family for some reason.
