According to Mrs. Yin's opinion, when she was thirteen or fourteen years old, she had heard too many stories about infatuated men and resentful women who gave up everything for love. Naturally, she could not help but yearn for love in her heart. If a young man with both ability and political integrity appeared at this time, what would happen? Such a vigorous pursuit requires the first love.
And as long as people have feelings, they have weaknesses, and it will be easy to control them when the time comes...
Shen Nanbao knew that Mrs. Yin acted in a dictatorial manner, and now he was asking this question just to test her tone.
Therefore, she smiled perfunctorily and said, "Grandma is lenient, but it has always been the parents' orders since ancient times. The matchmaker's words don't depend on what I think. Grandma thinks it's good, so that's fine."
What a high-sounding sentence! The ambiguity must be carried out to the end, so that she, an old lady who has been around for a long time, can't see clearly what her youngest granddaughter is thinking.
But she had plenty of ways to deal with such ambiguity.
After all, there has never been a saying that a concubine would marry higher than a legitimate daughter.
What's more, a concubine like Sister Bao doesn't care much and scalds her with boiling water. She doesn't know the dangers of the world.
Old Mrs. Yin took the tea from the table, lowered her eyes and stroked her small breasts, "You are a sensible person, I have always known that, but now that this matter has come to us, no matter whether the Founding Earl meant this or not, I have to negotiate with him in advance. Please make it clear that Xie's brother-in-law has a distinguished family background and is not from the same family as you. You should take a detour when you meet him in the future, so as not to have unreasonable thoughts and make you sad."
Not on the same page as her.
Are you and Shen Nanyi the same person?
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but think of other people's praises for Mrs. Yin. One of them was "a bowl of water is balanced", which was really classy.
Shen Nanbao smiled slightly, "I understand."
Although Mrs. Yin had expected that Shen Nanbao would say this, she didn't seem to expect that she would accept it so calmly.
She looked at Shen Nanbao carefully.
On the rosy face, the tiny silver teeth were just pressed in by the red lips, and the shallow dimples on the cheeks were perfectly curved, reflecting in the eyes, just like a spring breeze. .
It is really as shown in her bold words of good character, she is indifferent to favors and humiliations, has no intention of leaving or leaving, and is casual and casual!
What a deep city! What a quiet temperament!
How can Mr. Zhao and his wife be so transparent if they can raise such a girl?
Mrs. Yin almost wanted to meet Mr. and Mrs. Zhao.
But when she thought about it, she realized that a low-level merchant was not worthy of her promotion, nor was he worthy of her condescension to find him.
Mrs. Yin stopped her lingering gaze, turned her eyes and sipped her tea.
During the conversation, there were more and more guests. No matter how versatile Mrs. Peng was, she couldn't cope with them, so she asked Mrs. Rong to help prepare the table.
As the delicacies were served one by one, the sun outside the hall gradually set. Lanterns were hung under the eaves everywhere, with a faint red light. Bowl-sized clumps overlapped on everyone's faces, and there was a kind of A dizzying ability.
Shen Shi didn't know when he changed into a brocade dress with a coiled collar and sat at the table to take the lead.
Due to my idle position, and in order to avoid the suspicion of corruption, I did not have a big event this time. I only invited close friends, relatives and a few colleagues.
But even so, Shen Shi's stern face that had been stern for ten and a half months finally softened slightly at this moment. Yan Yan looked at everyone and laughed and chatted with those who came up to congratulate him from time to time.
After the table was spread out, Shen Nanyi led Ming Zheng, who was carrying the brocade box, and Shi Ran walked up, "Dad."
At this time, Shen Nanyi was like a cat that had hidden its claws and claws. She was docile and docile. Her movements were firm and her hairpin ring was not ringing. She was quite calm and dignified. Even when Ling Ling turned around, she still had a graceful and charming look. .
"Dad, this is a birthday gift I personally embroidered for you. I wish your father a prosperous sun and moon, and an everlasting spring for the pine and crane."
As she spoke, she opened the brocade box and revealed the embroidery picture inside, which was the Chinese character "longevity" embroidered with cranes.
Feng Yue's heart skipped a beat when she saw this, and she couldn't help but call her sister amidst the admiration of the crowd, "Miss, this birthday gift collides with yours."
However, Shen Nanbao curled his lips slightly as if he had expected it.
She didn't avoid people when she was doing the embroidery, so it was inevitable that the news would get out, not to mention that she went out of her way to make a fool of herself with Yourou.
It's hard not to get to the bottom of Yi Yourou's temperament.
As for Shen Nanyi and the others, it was up to them to decide whether they wanted to go head-to-head with them. Anyway, as an embroiderer, they had learned from the master in their previous lives and were not afraid of being bullied by them.
While thinking deeply, Youdao glanced over, and Shen Nanbao looked over and met a pair of timid eyes.
It belongs to Xiao Yichen.
Shen Nanbao's breath was suffocated, and she felt a chill instantly rush from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She was so numb that she couldn't even keep the smile on her face.
Xiao Yichen was probably pleased by her actions, his eyebrows and eyes suddenly softened into ripples under the bright lights, and opened leisurely.
But Shen Nanyi thought that Shen Nanbao was shocked by her birthday gift, so she couldn't help but chuckle, "Fourth sister, why are you so stunned? It's your turn."
Shen Nanbao took back Shen'er, stepped on the horizontal-checked felt carpet, held a pair of catkins in front of his forehead, and knelt down solemnly to salute.
"I wish you happiness deeper than the sea, and may the sun and moon shine together."
With these words, Feng Yue timidly opened her birthday gift, displaying a birthday gift with hundreds of flowers in front of everyone.
This was the first time Shen Nanyi saw Shen Nanbao's embroidery skills.
Even if Yourou got the news and said how powerful Shen Nanbao was, she would always sneer at her and ask, how powerful can a young lady raised in the market be? Is it as beautiful as the longevity picture she specially hired an embroiderer to make?
But what you hear is false, and what you see is true.
Now she has truly seen what ingenuity is!
Is Shen Nanbao so powerful?
Shen Nanyi's eyes widened at the exclamation of everyone, and she sneered sharply, "Fourth sister's birthday gift is quite different from mine..."
The elongated tone has a different meaning.
After hearing this, Mrs. Peng on the side couldn't help but secretly said to Shen Nanyi that the mud couldn't help her up the wall!
When I was changing clothes in the morning, I had told her so many times that I finally got rid of the ban. I had to be careful about everything I said and do, and I should not say anything unless it was an emergency. As for sending the congratulatory gift, I didn't say anything anymore.
After all, the last incident happened not long ago, so Mrs. Yin and Master Yin were still not talking about it in their hearts. Besides, we are not blind. We all see it in our own hearts, so why bother talking about it on the stage?
Don't let others think that Shen Nanyi is tempting to criticize Shen Nanbao.
It's good for her, being exposed to such a dazzling public gaze makes her feel as if she's been suffering from heat stroke due to the sun, and she can't find her way around, yet she still talks so arrogantly!
What sin did I commit in my previous life to give birth to such a stupid sister in this life!
As for Shen Nanbao, he still had the same calm posture and nodded lightly, "No, the second sister gave me the jade Buddha, and the third brother gave me Mr. Cao's "Ancient Pines in the Cold Mountains". It's just me and the eldest sister." , they are all embroidered with the Chinese character "longevity", they are really in harmony with each other."
Who wants to be in tune with a bitch like her?
She is a legitimate daughter!
Shen Nanyi couldn't get angry, and twitched the corner of her mouth coldly, "If I had known earlier that my sister also did embroidery, we should have had a breather before, so as not to ask dad to accept two pairs of embroidered longevity characters without knowing it. Which one should I hang in the room?"
Mrs. Peng was secretly frightened, and quickly laughed and scolded: "What are you saying, Sister Yi? If the room can't be hung, just hang it in the study. If the study can't be hung, there are also side rooms, side halls, and many rooms. There is no room for a mere painting. Embroidery?"
Peng tried to hide it without a trace.
Xiao Yichen didn't want to think about it, and snorted awkwardly, "The Shen family really has a rich family."
Peng's expression changed.
How could she forget that there was a Rakshasa like Xiao Yichen?
Sister Wan was already very eye-catching because of her hairdo and hairstyle, but now she had to restrain herself a little and organized such a birthday banquet in a careless way. She never thought that she would be targeted by Xiao Yichen.
Mrs. Peng hurriedly sang Fei Nai, "Your Majesty, this is not what I mean. I just don't want sisters to be at odds with each other."
Xiao Yichen stretched his chin with one hand, not taking her words seriously, and looked away at Shen Nanbao, who was stunned in place.
He was born fair, and when illuminated by the red candlelight, his face was slightly rosy, and he looked as gorgeous as a peach or plum. However, the eyes he looked at were like a vast sea, hiding huge waves that could be caught by just turning over the waves. Holding the driftwood, she fell into the abyss.
Shen Nanbao was horrified. She just wanted to escape from his sight. She might as well look into the other eyes, hiding worry and guilt. As their eyes met, the frown between Shen Wenzhuo's eyebrows became deeper and deeper.
His heart was so tense that Shen Nanbao couldn't even raise his head to look at him.
In fact, the third brother treated her well, but she planned to let his wife and sister jump into the fire pit. Although no one forced them, Shen Nanbao still felt a little guilty.
Just as he was distracted, Xiao Yichen spoke again, "The eldest girl was telling me last time that she was worried about her sister. Even if she was worried, then the love between sisters must be deep, so why not have sex just because of a pair of embroidery?" There is a rift, not to mention that this is an objection raised by the eldest girl herself."
Mrs. Peng didn't dare to say anything anymore, she only dared to say yes.
When Xiao Yichen saw this, the sneer in his eyes deepened, "So, from my point of view, the eldest girl doesn't need to worry too much. The fourth girl's pair should be hung in Master Shen's house. After all, it is rare to have double-sided embroidery."
It was as if a stone had been thrown into the lake, causing thousands of ripples.
Only then did Shen Nanyi notice that Shen Nanbao's embroidery was double-sided.
The idlers who were watching silently by Shang Zi seemed to have had their hands on their throats removed at this moment. Those who were finally able to express their opinions nodded in agreement.
Some people even waved their sleeves and said in a sonorous tone: "Although we are all sisters, we should not be distinguished between you and me, so as not to damage the harmony, but the embroidery skills have always been in order, not to mention the embroidery of the eldest girl and the fourth girl are world-class at a glance. Hey, Mr. Shen, if you don’t have the fourth girl in the house, it’s really unreasonable!”
After this person finished speaking, several others stood up and agreed. In order to prove that what he said was true, they even ridiculed Shen Nanyi's embroidery, demoted the crane and longevity picture to earth, and praised Shen Nanbao's embroidery. The picture is a masterpiece.
