Chapter 508: Sisters talk
Sheng Yuan was so bored that he simply went to work as Jiang Taigong by the Houfu Lake with his fishing rod.
"Sister Yuan!" Sheng Ran was tired from embroidering in the house. She originally wanted to talk to her sister, but she didn't expect that when she went out, she actually walked half way around the Hou Mansion to find this girl.
"Sister?" Sheng Yuan heard the sound, sat up from the stone she was leaning on, and waved excitedly to call her sister over.
"Why didn't you go out today?" Sheng Ran walked over without sitting down, and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.
"The weather is getting hotter, and I don't like to move!" Sheng Yuan patted the motionless fishing rod, "It's still cooler by the lake!"
When Sheng An heard this, she skillfully looked beside her and saw that there were no baits or fishing baskets at all, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"I thought you were depressed because you couldn't leave the capital!"
Sheng Yuan looked at her sister in surprise: "Do you think I'm depressed?"
Sheng An looked at her seriously for a long time, then shook her head after a long while: "You are just like when you were a child, you can pick up and put down. My sister is looking down on you!"
Sheng Yuan smiled happily and waved her hands: "It's okay! It's okay! Just remember to look up to me in the future!"
"..." Sheng Ran smiled and shook her head. This girl is as cheeky as she was when she was a child!
After talking to this little girl with delicate and picturesque features for a while, Sheng Ran's previously irritable mood gradually calmed down. She looked at the mirror-like lakeside, looked at the lush surroundings, and felt the breeze blowing from time to time. Recently, there had been some The troubled heart calmed down.
"Brother has another letter." Sheng Ran was silent for a moment and then suddenly said this.
"Huh?" Sheng Yuan felt that her eldest brother's intention was a little too obvious, "Could it be that he politely refuses his wife to come over?"
"Pay attention to the title!" Sheng An gave her an angry look, "A gentleman beware of independence!"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong! I was wrong!" Sheng Yuan changed her words very quickly, without even stumbling, she raised her hands to admit her mistake, "In the future, I will make up my mind to call her 'sister-in-law' even when I mention her to my sister! "
Sheng Ran rubbed her head and decided not to argue with this girl about this: "But, how do you know that my eldest brother won't let my eldest sister-in-law go there?"
"Oh?! Is this really like this?!" Sheng Yuan didn't expect that her brother was really not afraid of coming from afar for a mixed doubles match!
"Your guess is quite accurate!" Sheng Ran nodded with a smile, and then sighed and said, "Our parents were so angry that his family letter made him gasp. If Aunt Yang hadn't happened to be there, they would have packed up and gone over immediately. Looking for him!"
Aunt Yang was Zheng's wet nurse. She retired when Shengyuan was thirteen or fourteen years old. However, Zheng did not let her out of the house. She separated the main courtyard from the main courtyard by a narrow road, adjacent to the side entrance of the Hou Mansion. The third courtyard of the small garden was allocated to her as a nursing home.
Then he organized a group of maids, servants, cooks, and a medical woman to accompany her and take care of her.
Since Grandma Yang had no relatives outside, and she did not accept her as a daughter or son, Mrs. Zheng found trained cats, dogs, mynahs, parrots and various exotic flowers and plants to be her companions.
When the Shu family was in charge of the minister, the Zheng family had some free time and would go over to joke with Aunt Yang from time to time.
However, since Shengyuan was preparing for the imperial examination, Zheng gradually became busy due to various reasons. Grandma Yang felt sorry for her, so she came to visit in person from time to time.
I'll catch up this time!
"I feel like our eldest brother seems a little weird. Does he really look down on...his sister-in-law?" Sheng Yuan felt that her brother's behavior was a bit unlike him!
"Sister, do you think it's possible that someone can imitate our eldest brother's handwriting so that even our family can't recognize it?"
"!!!" Sheng An's train of thought instantly took her astray, and she immediately broke into a cold sweat.
She suddenly looked at Sheng Yuan: "What do you mean, girl?"
Sheng Yuan casually scratched his hair, wrinkled his round face and sighed: "Look, what is our eldest brother's temperament? He looks amiable, but in fact he is extremely aloof. He has always relied on his intelligence and fearlessness. It is definitely not possible for him to suppress bandits. Join forces with outside forces and sell yourself out!"
Sheng Ran gradually returned to her senses and became less nervous: "Are you talking about the fact that the eldest brother wants to marry a pirate's daughter as his wife? What if they fell in love at first sight on the battlefield?"
"Well...it's not impossible!" Sheng Yuan touched her chin.
She said it was possible, but looking at her expression, Sheng Ran didn't see much agreement.
"Eldest brother always says that he keeps his promises. How much can he, a man who is dedicated to building a career, focus on his feelings and break his promise for this?" Sheng Yuan shook his head exaggeratedly, "This is not like the eldest brother!"
"You can't guess like that! Your guess sounds like it was made up right now!"
Sheng Ran felt that her fright just now was completely unreasonable.
"But why hasn't the eldest brother taken my sister-in-law to come over for so long? I have pushed him over and over again, and it's still the same now." Sheng Yuan felt that the eldest brother was probably not just afraid that his sister-in-law would come over. "Who knows if it was him who wrote the letter? Woolen cloth!"
"Are you saying that the person who wrote the letter is afraid that we will find out that he is not the eldest brother?" Sheng Ran felt that the plot was a bit complicated, and her head was buzzing as she asked her younger sister to speak.
"Just...can't it just be that you don't want to pick someone up?" Although she felt that the younger sister's guess was a bit far-fetched, Sheng An couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Of course it can! Didn't I say there are other possibilities!"
Sheng Ran held her breath and looked at her. Seeing that there was no trace of impatience caused by speculation on this girl's face, she immediately felt relieved again.
"So?!" Sheng Ran felt that she couldn't let this girl lead her away, otherwise, she was afraid that she would faint.
"So we need to explore the truth!" Sheng Yuan changed the position of the fishing rod and looked at the calm lake with bright eyes.
"..." Sheng Ran understood, but this girl was still thinking about the past!
She suddenly realized that she had just let this girl make up nonsense to blind her!
If the writer of the letter was not the eldest brother, why would he invite this girl to go on a study tour? !
"You girl!" Sheng Ran nodded her forehead curiously and amusedly, "You actually talk nonsense like this for your own selfish reasons. If you say a few more words, I will faint from fear!"
"I let you see through it again!" Sheng Yuan smacked her lips sadly, her head swaying with the strength of her sister's hand.
"Don't tell our parents or Qianer this. Watch out for mixed doubles!"
"They are reluctant to beat me!"
Sheng Ran looked at this little girl with "Come and beat me" written all over her little face, and she was really impressed!
I don’t know which one is thicker, this girl or the eldest brother!
"Here's your chance to study abroad!" Although she was helpless to her little sister, Sheng An still told her her previous guess.
"???" Sheng Yuan's eyes lit up, and she immediately put the fishing rod aside and held her sister's hand expectantly, "What do you mean, sister?!"
The brightness of her eyes at this moment was just like the sparkling light on the lake, and Sheng An couldn't bear to look directly at it.
