Chapter 10 It's embarrassing to sit in this carriage
The carriage was probably specially designed, with a tall and wide interior, painted black wood walls, and covered with a layer of fox fur on the floor.
There was a sound of a needle falling on the ground in the compartment, and the breath of the adult man was too aggressive, Ye Lingwu buried his head deep like sitting on pins and needles, and his eyes only dared to stare at the embroidered shoes on his feet.
She never expected that she would be able to meet Shen Zhan when she went shopping, and it would be better if she didn't know her, but this person also asked Yue Yang to invite her back to the house together.
Iniquity, today is not going well.
The atmosphere was awkward, Shen Zhan glanced at the girl next to him, saw that she lowered her head and lowered her eyebrows, and the two hands on her knees were about to tear her clothes, and said in a deep voice: "Are you still used to everything when you enter the Hou Mansion?" β
Ye Lingwu raised his eyes blankly, and muttered slowly: "Back to the Hou Ye, I am used to it." β
I don't know if it's an illusion, Shen Zhan always felt that she was deliberately alienated from herself, so she simply stopped talking.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Hou Mansion.
There was a lot of excitement outside the mansion, except for Mrs. Shen, the people in the Hou Mansion were basically there.
Among them, standing at the forefront is the widow of the old Hou Ye and the head of the Hou Mansion - Qin Mingyu, the eldest princess of Jiayi.
She is wearing a golden skirt, a velvet robe dragging the ground, the years are eccentric, she is nearly forty years old, but her face seems to be stopped at twenty, only in her gestures, there is a little more stable charm that the girl's family does not have.
The second is Shen Chongwen, the second master of the second room, and her wife Zhao, this couple is the accident of the Ningbei Hou Mansion, both of them love poetry and songs.
Zhao's name is Sang, the background is not high, but he once studied under the Luoqing monk in Nanchang Mountain, and is a famous talented woman in the capital.
And Shen Chongwen is different from his eldest brother who fought in the frontier, he has Wen Tao but no martial arts, and because of his poor health all the year round, he only has an idle position as a four-grade righteous doctor in the court.
After that, there are the juniors of the Hou Mansion, Shen Pan'er and Shen Yue'er, and Jiang Lanshu.
Of course, the most unorthodox Shen Ci is also there.
Although he is used to being a hanger on weekdays, even his parents dare to come against him, but at this moment he is a little serious.
Shen Zhan dismounted first, and everyone instantly surrounded him.
Immediately followed by Ye Lingwu also got out of the carriage, in order to reduce her sense of existence, she deliberately walked very slowly.
But no matter how slow she was, she also got off Shen Zhan's carriage, and it was impossible not to attract attention.
Qin Mingyu was speechless in surprise when he saw that a girl had actually gotten out of his son's car.
I thought that Shen Zhan was enlightened and was about to be happy, but when I saw the girl's appearance when she raised her eyes, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
She looks so much like someone!
"You're the girl from Yuzhou?"
A voice suddenly came from the big head, Ye Lingwu was stunned, and slowly raised his head to look, only to see that the lady in the dream was standing on the steps and looking down at her at this moment.
The golden crown is beautiful, and the demeanor is all right.
She is as noble as in her dream, so noble that she is unattainable.
Jiang Lanshu saw that Ye Lingwu was stunned, took a few steps down the steps to her side, and saluted very decently: "If you go back to the eldest princess, she is the cousin girl that the old lady picked up from Yuzhou, named Ye Lingwu." β
After that, Jiang Lanshu secretly poked Ye Lingwu on her side with her elbow, and Ye Lingwu reacted at this time, lowered her head and saluted: "Meet the eldest princess." β
Qin Mingyu's face was tense, and it took a while to withdraw his gaze from Ye Lingwu's face, ignoring the two of them, pulling Shen Zhan into the mansion while talking, and everyone left with him.
The faces of the two who were ignored were different. Jiang Lanshu thought that speaking for Ye Lingwu would be looked at by people who have been missing for a long time, but who knew that his gaze never fell on her at all. If you can't beat the fox, you will make a fuss.
But Ye Lingwu was relieved, no one noticed that it was best for her. The weather was so cold that she hurriedly pulled Rong Xiu into the house, walked quickly towards Jinghetang, and put a bowl of ginger soup brought by Mama Xuan, and the whole person came back to life.
The old lady Shen on the side looked at her and said, "I heard that you came back in the carriage of the boat?" β
Ye Lingwu put down the bowl in surprise, "Old lady, how do you know?" β
Old Mrs. Shen smiled without saying a word, picked up the ginger soup and took a sip, before saying, "I'm just old, and my ears are still smart." β¦β¦ How is it getting along with your big brother? β
Ye Lingwu was stunned, she didn't understand why Mrs. Shen asked this, after thinking about it, she really couldn't think of any good adjectives, and finally popped out two words: "It's difficult." β
Old Lady Shen shook her hand and laughed wildly: "You will tell the truth." β
Ye Lingwu also laughed.
The old and the young get along very well.
The sun set quickly, and the people who came to Ningbei Hou's Mansion as guests were almost all here, and Mrs. Shen didn't like to be lively, so she only asked Jiang Lanshu and Ye Lingwu to attend for her.
Begonia Pavilion is a special place to entertain guests, and seasonal flowers are specially selected in the courtyard, even in winter, they still do not lose their color.
However, in the New Year's weather, there are few people on the porch outside.
Ye Lingwu followed Jiang Lanshu all the way to the house where the female guests were allowed to eat tea. The female envoy who came with her opened the warm curtain one left and one right, and the group stepped into the house with their heads down.
There was a commotion in the house, and the girls gathered in twos and threes, talking about the fun and interesting things in the capital, while the elders sat in the screen and flattered each other.
"Sister Lingwu is here!" Shen Pan'er trotted over, skipped Jiang Lanshu, and affectionately took Ye Lingwu's hand.
Shen Pan'er doesn't like a person obviously, such as Shen Yue'er, who is half-brother, Jiang Lanshu, who has a crush on her eldest brother, and the little county lord of Shunchang Palace.
The girls over there looked overβ
I just heard Shen Pan'er say that there was a cousin girl in their house, and everyone didn't pay attention to it, but they didn't expect the girl from Yuzhou to look so fairy.
Dressed in a dark purple body, his face is like a peach blossom with dew, and there is only a hairpin on his hair bun, which is about to suppress the momentum of the noblewoman.
"The little lord of the Shunchang Royal Mansion has arrived~" A report from the female envoy came from outside the house.
The girl was wearing a red velvet cloud and smoke dress, her long hair was combed into a deer bun, several delicate golden hairpins were inserted, and a pair of red phoenix eyes flew up slightly, indescribably arrogant.
Shen Pan'er rolled her eyes when she saw her, the two had been at odds with each other in private for a long time, even if the visitor was a guest, she didn't want to deal with it.
On the contrary, Shen Yue'er stepped forward with a smile and blessed her body, and said, "The little county lord is here, let's go and sit down first, the banquet may not start for a while." β
"Okay, thank you, four girls." Liu Feiyan blessed her lightly, and walked straight towards the few noble girls she knew in the private school.
There is no mistake in every word and deed, and it is full of the dignity that the county lord should have.
When most of the nobles in the house saw her coming, they all looked around, quite flattering.
King Shunchang is the thirteenth uncle of today's saint, it sounds like a prominent family, but in fact, King Shunchang has no real power or official position, the first emperor period is mixed, and now it is also mixed, whether it is in the founding years or the peaceful and prosperous times, the presence of the Shunchang palace is very small.
Although Liu Feiyan is a county lord, in fact, some of the girls here have no weaker family backgrounds than her, and most of the reason why she flatters her is that the little county lord is very popular with Princess Jiayi.
As for whether she can become Mrs. Hou in the future, the girl in the house knows it - half of them are impossible.
"It's contrived." Shen Pan'er muttered quietly.
Ye Lingwu heard it and said blankly: "Who is the third girl talking about?" β
Shen Pan'er said angrily: "Who else can it be, of course it is Liu Feiyan, the little county lord of the Shunchang Palace." "Add another Shen Yue'er.
Ye Lingwu was puzzled, and glanced at Liu Feiyan, who was talking to someone over there, and said, "Miss Liu is very good, why did the third girl say that?" β
Shen Pan'er sneered: "It's just pretending, you didn't know if you weren't in the capital before, I studied with her for nearly three years, and she was very rude, but after her eldest brother rejected her house last year, Liu Feiyan didn't leave the house for a month, and since then she has changed her temperament and restrained a lot." β
Ye Lingwu said: "Isn't this a good thing, people will always change, the little county lord is beautiful and graceful, and the Hou Ye will definitely like it when he sees it." β
Shen Pan'er smiled disdainfully: "No, my eldest brother only has those things in the military camp in his heart, even if he marries a wife in the future, it will be a last resort, and in his heart, the court is the first priority." β
Ye Lingwu was silent, feeling that it made sense.
