She raised her hand to interrupt Aunt Ru's words and said in a low voice, "Auntie, if you have anything else to say, just say it. Don't beat around the bush."
"Why did you call me aunt again? There are no outsiders here. Do you think your mother's identity embarrasses you?"
Aunt Ru's eyes were red and she was about to cry again.
Shen Lansui didn't argue and just looked at her deeply.
Before it was time to have a cup of tea, Aunt Ru couldn't help but look away and sniffed, "That's all, you have grown up and are now Mrs. Hou, so you should really pay more attention."
Shen Lansui sat up straight. Aunt Ru thought she was leaving, so she quickly grabbed her hand and said, "That's right, your brother is not young anymore. I want him to find a good place to polish off his time." His temperament saves him from hanging out with his friends all day long, and he doesn't have any integrity."
Shen Lansu raised her eyebrows and said, "You want me to help him arrange it?"
Aunt Ru smiled sheepishly, "I also know that this is a bit difficult for you, but I can't think of a better place to go. You also know that your younger brother is not good at studying, so he cannot compare to your elder brother."
Speaking of her eldest brother, Aunt Ru looked slightly gloomy and a little jealous.
Kang Lebo gave birth to five daughters, but only two sons, so Aunt Ru became a celebrity in the uncle's house based on the wealth of mother and son.
The eldest son Shen Xiuzhi is the daughter of the eldest wife Xu Pingyan. He is twenty-five years old, mature and steady, and is now a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy.
Although his rank is not high, he is young and the Hanlin Academy has always produced golden phoenixes. After a few years, his future is unlimited.
The second son is Shen Chufan, who is ten years older than his brother, and his personality is completely different.
He is not good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he is also good at eating, drinking and having fun.
Shen Sanqing couldn't get used to hanging out with dudes all day long because he looked like Shen Sanqing and he was his youngest son.
But after all, he is a useless bastard, far worse than Shen Xiuzhi.
Shen Lan thought about it over and over, but she didn't understand. What should I do with her? Do you want her to blow Lu Xingyue's pillow?
"Auntie, you want me to ask Mr. Hou for help?"
Aunt Ru nodded immediately and lowered her voice and said, "Isn't the Marquis working in the Jinyi Guard, Zhen Fu? Is he this official?"
She licked her lips and said, "The emperor favors Jin Yiwei today. He will be a head taller than anyone else when he goes in. Moreover, people can be trained there. If your brother goes there, maybe he can be reborn." She seemed to have seen Shen Chufan's glorious future. , covered his lips and laughed, "Your face will be bright by then, right?"
Shen Lansui tugged at his lips and withdrew his hand, "I can't make the decision in this matter."
"Why can't you be the master? You are Mrs. Hou now. Mr. Hou will definitely listen to what you say. If you use the method I teach you, he will definitely be devoted to you. Men are all the same. They like women to follow their will. When he comes, please be gentler, isn’t it easy to handle him?”
Aunt Ru frowned, "You are still young, and it is normal to be shy, but you have to think about yourself, right? Can you rely on your husband for the rest of your life? If something happens in the future, your brother from the same mother must be reliable! Mom will not harm you. , you go back and have a good talk with the Marquis. You are not in a hurry, but you can’t delay it. Your brother will be sixteen after his birthday——"
Shen Lansui stood up suddenly with a cold expression, "Jinyiwei is not the back garden of the Duke's mansion, nor is it a place where Lu Xingyue can dominate the sky. Just because of His Majesty's favor, if you want to enter Jinyiwei, you must have real ability and go through the back door under His Majesty's nose." , are you afraid that Shen Chufan will not cause trouble? Or do you think you have had enough of a good life?"
She suddenly got angry, and Aunt Ru was dumbfounded and stared at her dumbfounded, unable to recover for a long time.
"If I have nothing else to do, I'll leave first. Don't mention this matter again."
After saying this, Shen Lansui turned around and left.
Aunt Ru saw the person walking out the door and quickly got up to catch up, "Lansui-Lansui!"
Shen Lansui pretended not to hear it. After walking for a while, she felt her hands were getting nervous. She looked down and saw that she had forgotten to put the box down.
Now she can't look down upon her if she goes back, and she can't look directly at Aunt Ru now.
"That's all, take it back and look at it later."
She remembered Shen Xiyun's words and returned to the garden. From a distance, she saw Shen Xiyun sitting in the pavilion, boredly feeding the fish.
"Second sister."
She called out, and Shen Xiyun immediately stood up and came over to greet her.
"Why is your face so ugly? Did you quarrel with your aunt?" Shen Xiyun saw her holding a box and asked curiously: "What is this?"
"It's nothing." Shen Lansui avoided her hand, "Second sister, what do you want to say?"
Shen Xiyun retracted her hand and said softly: "It's nothing, I just regret it every time I think about what I said to you before. If I hadn't known about that, you wouldn't have been so confused."
Tears flashed in her eyes, and she looked very distressed, "To put it bluntly, our uncle's house is still sorry for you."
Something suddenly flashed through Shen Lansui's mind. Just as he was about to speak, he heard footsteps keenly.
Shen Xiyun held her hand and said sincerely: "Now that the Marquis is willing to accompany you, he must have you in his heart. This is enough. Although his face is cold, his heart is warm, and he is favored by His Majesty." , he has a great future, please don’t listen to the rumors about his wife being evil and have a grudge against him."
Before Shen Lansui could speak, she sighed again and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with one hand. Every movement was as graceful as if it had been carefully planned.
"I know you are unwilling and have found someone you like, but you are already the wife of the Lu family. Just forget about the past."
Shen Lan couldn't tell what was wrong before, but now she understands.
This second sister doesn't really care for her at all.
The corner of her eye swept over the sapphire blue robe exposed behind the rockery. She gently broke away from Shen Xiyun's hand and smiled helplessly, "What is the second sister talking about? When did I have a sweetheart? In my eyes There is only Mr. Hou in my heart."
Shen Xiyun choked and looked at her in surprise.
"I did have the idea of suicide, but that was before I met the Marquis. I was very happy to see him Xia Ziyue Yun. How could I still care about others? The second sister is too worried." Shen Lansui finished. As she walked forward, Shen Xiyun turned around and wanted to say something else, but she saw a person walking out from behind the rockery opposite, followed by a guard pushing a wheelchair.
Isn't it Lu Xingyue and Zhou Quan or who is it?
Shen Xiyun's expression changed slightly, and she quickly stepped forward and bowed, "I have met Mr. Marquis."
Lu Xingyue's eyes swept across her eyebrows, and he suddenly condensed, his aura turning into gray with light gold.
gold?
What does this mean?
Shen Xiyun noticed that his eyes stayed on her for a while and raised her eyes slightly.
Shen Lansui raised her eyebrows. Was he squinting in front of her?
She didn't interrupt, she just looked at it leisurely.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xingyue's unexplained gaze suddenly fell on her.
"Xia Zi Yue Yun?" He used his warm voice to break up these four words and read them again, which made people hear a bit of ambiguity. He looked at Shen Lansui and smiled softly. He said, "Huh."
