Chapter 309: Cousin and Aunt
After shopping outside for a long time, it was almost time for dinner before the two returned to the Shen Mansion together.
This is what Yan had already told him to let Shen Qianwei bring Su Junning over for dinner.
The two entered the door hand in hand, and they could hear the laughter of a strange woman in the front hall.
"Sister, you are blessed now, this husband, son, are all generals, the future daughter-in-law is still the daughter of the imperial historian, I am really envious, I think of when I was a child, you and I said that we would marry in one place, but I didn't expect that they are so far away now."
"Isn't my cousin saying that these are all life, although you and I haven't seen each other for many years, but after all, we are relatives, and our hearts are not far away."
This is Yan's voice.
Su Juning and Shen Qianwei glanced at each other, a little puzzled, and paused before approaching the hall.
After coming in, I found that there was a woman with a similar figure to her sitting next to Yan's family, who looked good, but there was a bit of a small family spirit between her eyebrows and eyes.
The clothes on his body are not bad, although he can't be compared with the Yan family, but he should also be an ordinary rich family.
Next to the woman was a slender girl, wearing a crescent white tunic dress, looking like a pear blossom, delicate and moving.
As soon as she saw Shen Qianwei and Su Junning coming in, the woman's eyes immediately fell on the two of them.
When he swept over Su Juning, his eyes were full of amazement and envy, but he quickly looked at Shen Qianwei again, and he looked quite satisfied.
Such a calculating gaze made both of them a little uncomfortable, but they still quietly saluted Yan according to the rules.
"Excuse me, this is"
Before Yan could introduce it, the woman stood up directly, walked quickly in front of the two, and smiled very enthusiastically.
"Oh, for more than ten years, Qianwei has grown into such a handsome young man, I am your aunt, and I am also your mother's handkerchief when I was in the boudoir, when you were full moon, I also hugged you!"
"Oh, this is your sister, called Chu Yi, come and give you Brother Shen a gift!"
As he spoke, he rushed to the girl in three or two steps and dragged the person over.
The girl lowered her eyes, didn't dare to raise her head, only called softly.
"Chu Yi has seen my brother and this sister."
Su Junning glanced at the girl silently and did not make a sound.
And Shen Qianwei next to him took her hand the next moment, and bowed slightly to the woman with a faint smile.
"Hello aunt, this is my fiancée, Ning'er."
The warmth from the palm of the hand made people very ironed, and the slight displeasure in my heart suddenly dissipated.
Su Junning also showed a shallow smile and made a half-salute very decently.
Seeing the intimacy between the two, the woman was slightly stunned, but soon became enthusiastic again.
"Presumably this is Miss Su, she is really more beautiful than the fairy daughter, unlike this girl in our family, she is very vulgar, Chu Yi, you have entered Beijing, but you have to learn more from you, the sister of the Su family!"
When I heard this, I didn't look like a visiting friend, but seemed to be going to live for a long time.
Su Junning's eyes darkened imperceptibly.
At this time, Yan also stepped forward and blocked between several people with a smile.
"Okay, okay, if you have anything to say, it's not too late to talk about it later, it's not too early this time, presumably Ning Yatou is also hungry, last time you said that the balls made by your aunt tasted good, and now your aunt made some deliberately, you must eat more."
As he spoke, he took Su Juning's hand and went to the dining hall at the back.
Shen Qianwei also immediately followed, with a smile on his face.
The woman seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and gave the girl behind her a look, and the mother and daughter looked back.
During the meal, Su Juning said a few clichés, which can be regarded as finding out the details of the mother and daughter.
This woman's surname is Chen, her husband's surname is Qiao, her husband is Yan's cousin, and she herself is indeed Yan's best friend when she was in the boudoir.
And that girl was not her biological daughter, but the concubine of her family, called Qiao Chuyi.
This time into Beijing, is to take this girl to see the doctor, said that the mother was born prematurely, born with a weak disease, recuperation for many years is not good, by the local Lang Zhong introduced, to Bianjing City to seek medical treatment.
It was also during the banquet that Su Juning saw that the girl looked very good, and she had a bit of a sick charm, but maybe because of her concubine, she was a little timid and restrained.
But because of this, it makes her pitiful and weak appearance more and more seductive.
For a while, there was nothing unusual about that Qiao girl, but Chen was very calculating.
Su Junning didn't want to take the initiative, after all, it could be seen from the attitudes of Shen Qianwei and Yan's today that if there was really anything, she wouldn't be needed.
Sure enough, after dinner, when Chen proposed that Shen Qianwei take Qiao Chuyi to walk on the street, Yan said that Su Junning was weak and couldn't blow the evening breeze, and Shen Qianwei needed to send her home.
Su Junning naturally didn't say anything, and Shen Qianwei carried her into the carriage and left the Shen Mansion in a good way.
After getting into the car, the person lazily leaned on Shen Qianwei's shoulder.
"Your aunt is kind of funny."
"Raushzi's aunt is not a relative, so I have to add a table word in front of it." Shen Qianwei was a little disdainful, and then laughed again, "What, are you jealous, that first year vinegar?" ”
"What is the first year of junior high school, people's name is Chu Yi." Su Junning played with his fingers and said casually, "I can't be jealous, you are not that lustful." ”
If Shen Qianwei really sees one and loves the other, then there are many people in Bianjing City who want to stuff the good-looking concubines in the family to be concubines for him.
Although Qiao Chuyi has a bit of beauty, she is still a little worse than the young lady raised by a big family in Beijing.
"I don't think my aunt seems to be enthusiastic about that Aunt Chen, is it because I haven't been in touch for too long?" Su Junning asked.
The Su family also has many distant relatives who come to fight the autumn breeze every year, which is a very normal phenomenon in large families.
For most generations, who is not an ordinary family.
Now that it is developed, those who are related to the family, as long as they do not break the law, they can help.
Shen Qianwei pursed his lips and leaned back on the pillow, his face cold.
"It's not just that we haven't been in touch for too long."
"Is this a relationship again?"
Su Junning immediately sat up, poured tea for the two, and looked like listening to the story.
Seeing her like this, Shen Qianwei smiled.
"You're excited to listen to this gossip."
"Tell me, talk about it." Su Junning's eyes were shining, and she reached out and shook her sleeve.
Shen Qianwei had no choice but to tell the old story he heard from his parents.
When they were in Yanzhou, the Yan family and the Qiao family were both merchants, and the two families naturally married, and Yan's mother, that is, Shen Qianwei's maternal grandmother, was surnamed Qiao.
Shen Qianwei's maternal grandmother gave birth to two boys and a girl, and Yan was the eldest daughter.
But at that time, Yanzhou was unstable, and there were rogues who made a rebellion, hijacked the carriage of the Yan family to transport goods, and killed the two sons of the Yan family, so far the Yan family has no successor male.
As a woman, Yan took over her father's business single-handedly, but because of her daughter, she was criticized and excluded everywhere and it was difficult to maintain.
At this time, the Qiao family did not want to help, but proposed to let the Yan family marry the second son of the Qiao family, and hand over the Yan family's family business to the Qiao family.
The Yan family was furious, and since then they have been estranged from the Qiao family.
Later, he married Shen He, and Shen He had some positions in the army, which were considered officials.
The Qiao family took advantage of Shen Qianwei's full moon banquet and re-posted it.
