What happened in the palace, the news was blocked very well, and it did not cause too many waves for the time being.

On this day, Shen Xingwan and Shen Qingran went out together to attend the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Su family.

In the car, Shen Qingran couldn't help complaining, "Today's family gets married, tomorrow's flower banquet, I haven't heard of this banquet in Kyoto all year round, and I just feel bored when I participate in it more." ”

"It's going to be hard work again today, sister." Shen Xingwan said with a smile.

Mrs. Su specially invited her, after all, she had lived in the Hou Mansion for eight years, and she didn't tear her face when she left, she had to go as reasonable.

Shen Qingran looked at her worriedly, "You're going back to the Hou Mansion, are you okay?" ”

"I've seen it a long time ago." Shen Xingwan didn't care.

The two entered the door of the Su family hand in hand, and when they walked to the garden, they instantly attracted the attention of many people.

"Look at it, it's Shen Xingwan, I didn't expect her to come."

"How can I say that the Su family also has the grace of nurturing her, and the old lady is an elder, so it is normal to come."

"Her life is also good, she can't be the daughter of the Hou Mansion and become the daughter of the Shen family."

…… In the gossip of the girls, Su Jingyi, who was dressed in pink, walked up with a sweet smile and grabbed Shen Xingwan's hand, "Sister is here, the old lady has been talking about you." ”

As he spoke, he took Shen Xingwan to greet the old lady, and so many people looked at Shen Xingwan and didn't refuse.

As soon as she walked to a place where there was no one, Su Jingyi let go of her hand and said in a quiet tone, "Grandma, she has always liked you." ”

Shen Xingwan couldn't figure out what she meant, so she simply didn't answer.

The old lady was dressed very festively today, with a smile on her face, and she also spoke to her gently when she saw Shen Xingwan.

The two talked about some scenes, and they looked at the atmosphere well, but they were actually polite.

There were no moths at today's banquet, and even Madame Hou was very calm when she saw her, and treated her no different from all the little girls present.

Shen Xingwan was eating pastries, watching the lively drama on the stage, his sleepy eyes were almost unable to open, "Sister is right, such a banquet is really boring." ”

Looking around, the girls either whispered, or they couldn't lift their spirits like Shen Xingwan, and the topics of the adults and the birthday celebration scene were not interesting to the young girls.

Su Jingyi stood up at this time and said with a smile, "Let's go to the back garden to play, we can go fishing, we can also go to fighting grass and flowers, and we can also watch white cranes." ”

Mrs. Hou also said, "Go play, be careful not to fall into the lotus pond, you can't watch the play while sitting here." ”

The girls were talking and laughing, and they walked back in groups.

Shen Qingran stood up, "Let's go too, otherwise it will seem that we don't fit in." ”

The two walked far away, and when it came to the lotus pond in the Hou Mansion, Shen Xingwan was quite familiar.

After all, as soon as he came over, he and Su Jingyi staged a big scene here.

In the pavilion, a girl familiar to Shen Qingran beckoned to her, "Qingran, come here, let's have a game." ”

The sisters walked over, Shen Qingran played chess with the girl, and Shen Xingwan sat and leaned on the railing, looking at the lotus pond in a daze.

There are girls fishing on the shore, and there are girls playing games together.

The stolen floating life was idle for half a day, and Shen Xingwan leaned there lazily, not moving.

Even when Su Jingyi came over to watch the chess game, she didn't pay attention.

In the lotus pond, several white cranes are dancing, and there are also boat girls rowing boats to shuttle in the middle to work.

Suddenly, a quiet sound of the piano came from the pond, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Even Shen Qingran put down the chess pieces in his hand and glanced at the lotus pond, only to hear his voice and not see him.

Su Jingyi said with a smile, "It is estimated that my brother took his friends to row a boat to the lotus pond again, and he will enjoy it." ”

"It's really good to make a pot of tea on the boat in this weather, and it's really good to float in the lotus pond." There is a way that girls yearn for.

"You come alone another day, I'll take you rowing." Su Jingyi said considerately and generously, "There are too many people at the banquet today, and my mother is afraid of accidents, so she is not allowed to row to play." ”

"Jingyi can't be eccentric, I also want to go boating."

"Add me one..."

"Okay, let's go..."

The little girls giggled.

The sound of the piano became closer and closer, and a small boat slowly sailed out from the depths of the lotus pond.

At the stern of the boat, there was a man with a jade tree standing with his hands behind his back, and his clothes fluttered in the autumn wind.

The temperament is fresh, although it is just looking at it from a distance, it makes people can't take their eyes off it.

The girls were all silent for a moment and looked over.

"Whose son is this?" There was a girl muttering quietly.

Shen Xingwan leaned on the fence and held his chin with his hand, so it was difficult to watch quietly.

Su Jingyi didn't know when she stood beside him, her eyes wandering over her face, trying to see something.

The boat slowly got closer, and everyone saw several sons on board.

Some people play the piano, some people drink, and they don't look so laid-back.

A girl whispered, "The boy standing on the bow of the boat is Meng Qinghe!" ”

The Meng family is a scholarly family, and there have been several great Confucians and Tanhua, and it is said that both men and girls in the family are talented.

This generation is most famous for Meng Qinghe, the head of the four sons of Shengjing, talented and handsome at the same time, and most importantly, his personality is as gentle as jade.

Meng Qinghe probably didn't expect that there would be so many girls here, so he was surprised, and soon returned to the appearance of a handsome son, letting everyone look at him.

Su Jingyi said with a smile, "This situation is very consistent with Meng Gongzi's name." ”

"When I am drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of dreams and the galaxy." Su Jingyi slowly read out this poem.

Shen Xingwan still maintained that posture, with a lazy smile on his face, as if he was just a person watching the excitement, and there was no special reaction.

Su Jingyi's eyes flashed, and she beckoned to the slowly approaching boat, "Brother, you are really good at playing." ”

Young Master Su smiled, "The banquet is too boring, so bring your friends over for a drink." ”

Saying that, he looked at Shen Xing for a while, "It's late, it's late, and they have grown into slim girls." ”

Young Master Su is a well-known free and frank person, who loves to make friends the most and is the best at playing, but he is not interested in officialdom.

He has always been very good to Shen Xingwan, and even his attitude towards the original owner in the original book has always been gentle.

Shen Xingwan also greeted with a smile, "After so many years, big brother, you still love to play so much." ”

"Is life alive, the picture is a happy one." Young Master Su said heartily.

Because Meng Xinghe was standing in front, he met Shen Xingwan's gaze as soon as he raised his head.

Shen Xingwan looked away calmly without any waves, but Meng Xinghe looked at her a few more times.

Probably felt rude, and quickly withdrew his eyes and looked at the water.

"You guys play slowly, we should go back too." Young Master Su said.

The boat slowly docked, and several sons went ashore, and it was not good to stay here longer, so they left together.

Su Jingyi watched their backs disappear into the garden, squinting her eyes, how could this be?
