Chapter 198: I Don't Marry a General
On the sixth day of the accident of the lord of Baili.
At the end of the day, Ye Lingwu changed into a purple robe, went to the main house, and when she opened the warm curtain and went in, Mrs. Shen was already sitting on the top, and the two girls in the second room also came early.
I don't know what the three grandparents are talking about, the old lady Shen rarely showed a smile on her face, and Shen Yue'er also covered her mouth and chuckled, but Shen Pan'er was embarrassed.
"Old lady, what are the four girls laughing at?" Ye Lingwu leaned over and sat down.
Shen Yue'er put away her laughter and replied: "Sister Lingwu is here, grandmother Fang Cai said that the third sister has a bad temperament, and I don't know who to follow, saying that only the general's family can suppress it, but the third sister clamored that if she marries a general, she will have to follow her husband to the battlefield." ”
"The sword on the battlefield doesn't have long eyes, how can it be so easy." Mrs. Shen said, "In the past, you refused to let you practice guns, and you were tired of practicing archery, although your temperament can only be suppressed by military generals, but if you want to sing with your husband, you should save it." ”
Shen Pan'er pouted and said: "The military general wants to marry, but the granddaughter doesn't want to marry yet, the current military general is the most powerful big brother, and in addition, no one can look down on the granddaughter." ”
In fact, it is Yan Kong, among the girls in the capital, there is a saying that there is no handsome talent in the general's family, of course, this sentence is except for Shen Zhan.
Old Lady Shen said, "You still don't like it?" Look at your own virtues, and if you don't restrain yourself, your grandmother will look at this capital, and I'm afraid that you won't be able to see you. ”
Shen Pan'er curled the corners of her mouth, raised her chin and said: "I'm a noble girl of the Hou Mansion, I don't like it, but I have the final say, not to mention that I don't want to marry a general." ”
Old Lady Shen shook her head slowly, pulling the corners of her mouth unknowingly, and the other two girls laughed from ear to ear when they saw Old Lady Shen's reaction.
"Where's Sister Lingwu?" Shen Yue'er stopped smiling and asked seemingly casually, "Sister Ling Wu, have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to marry?" ”
Ye Lingwu was stunned, saw that the eyes of several people were cast, and said slowly: "Fourth girl, don't make fun of me, I haven't thought about it yet." ”
Shen Yue'er said unrelentingly: "Then it's okay to think about it now, grandmother Fang Cai said that the fourth sister has a perverse personality, only the military generals can suppress it, and the granddaughter feels otherwise, as the saying goes, if you are strong, you will be soft, and if you are soft, you will be strong, and Sister Lingwu will marry a military general in the future." ”
Ye Lingwu's face stiffened when he heard this, and he peeked at Mrs. Shen, and saw that she was staring at herself, and immediately said, "The fourth girl is teasing me again, I don't want to marry a general." ”
Shen Yue'er frowned, puzzled: "Why? ”
Ye Lingwu almost didn't think about it, and said directly what he had thought about on weekdays: "The old lady also said just now, military generals need to go to the battlefield, and the sword on the battlefield is not long-sighted, if you really marry in the past, you have to be worried every year." ”
Old Lady Shen's face was a little pale, but she frowned again, and said quietly: "What Ling Yatou said is not bad, this general's home is indeed not easy, the husband and wife are safe and sound, and it is good to grow old together." ”
The atmosphere in the room was instantly calm.
Ye Lingwu's heart was stunned, and after knowing that he had said the wrong thing, his lips moved a few times, and he said, "Old lady, Lingwu didn't mean that." ”
Old Mrs. Shen's smile was tired, and she couldn't reach the bottom of her eyes: "I know you don't mean that, this is just what my wife often thinks." ”
As she spoke, she looked at the two girls in the second room, "Sometimes I look at your parents, not to mention me and your aunt, even other people feel envious, so this martial artist will have to think twice." ”
Yes, who in this Nanjing City does not envy Second Master Shen, who is protected by the merits of his father and brothers, has children waiting under his knees, and is accompanied by the wife of the first talented woman in the capital.
It's like Qin Mingyu, who is the head of the house, her husband died on the battlefield, and her son is not in Beijing all the year round, and the only one waiting for me on my side is still my mother, which is really embarrassing.
The three girls were silent, each with their own thoughts.
Shen Pan'er had already belonged, and she had no intention of the general's family, so she didn't go to her heart. Shen Yue'er has no heart, but she thinks that the person she wants to marry in the future should be "admired", and it doesn't matter if the military general has nothing to do with or has no official title.
And Ye Lingwu felt that she would marry whoever the elders asked her to marry, so good.
As soon as the house was quiet, there was a lot of movement outside, and I heard the voice of a magpie suddenly outside the house-"Master Hou is here, why don't you go in directly, a few girls are also there." ”
When the words fell, the warm curtain was lifted, and everyone looked towards the door, and saw Shen Zhan walking unhurriedly. He is still dressed in a dark color today, with a golden crown and a high ponytail.
"Grandmother, please." Shen Zhan raised his arm and said.
"Why are you thinking of saying hello to me today?" Old Lady Shen raised her eyebrows, smiled and pointed to the empty seat on Shen Yue'er's left, signaling for a seat.
Shen Zhan sat down and replied: "After finishing breakfast with my mother, I thought that there was nothing to do in the morning, and today was another day to say goodbye, so I came over." ”
Mrs. Shen said: "It's just right, just now I talked to these girls about choosing Xu, the world says that the generals are majestic, but I don't know that the girls in our generals' families don't want to marry the generals." ”
Shen Zhan's eyes bloomed with a real brilliance, as if a pool of quiet ancient wells had been thrown into a stone, and the microwave ripples circled, and he said after a long time: "Sun Er just listened to some outside the door, but he can't refute it." ”
For some reason, Ye Lingwu only felt that her cheeks were a little hot, and what she said just now was not a bad word, but she always had a kind of uneasiness about saying bad things behind her back and being caught by the main owner.
Ye Lingwu secretly raised his eyes and glanced at the man sitting opposite, just in front of his gaze, it was cold and dark, Ye Lingwu quickly turned his head and pretended not to see it.
At the same time, a female envoy walked outside, holding a cup in her hand, wearing an apricot-colored long jacket, a pretty melon seed face, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, and a little beauty between her eyebrows.
She gently blessed everyone one by one, and then said to Shen Zhan: "Master Hou, the master mother ordered the slave maid to bring you a bowl of white fungus soup." ”
Shen Zhan frowned, and let Zheng Er hold the soup cup without answering.
Old Mrs. Shen said: "You are the female envoy who was picked by the hostess to serve in the Bangzhou courtyard?" ”
Zheng Er turned around and said, "Back to the old lady, exactly." ”
"It's very cute, what's your name?" Old Lady Shen smiled slightly.
"The slave's name is Zheng'er." She replied.
The sons and daughters of the noble families of the high families in the capital will have a female envoy before marrying a wife, and these female envoys can be regarded as half of the concubine room in addition to taking care of the living life of the main family, and after the main family marries a wife, they will have the opportunity to enter the house as a concubine.
Ye Lingwu silently recited the name in his heart, thinking that Qin Mingyu's vision was really good, this female envoy didn't look like a servant, but more like a pampered person.
