Shan Shan was still a little confused until he returned to the carriage with the brocade box in his arms.
"Uncle Shen is so weird today." She said to her mother: "When he sees me, he always wants me to invite him to my house as a guest. Today, he didn't even want to talk to me, so he kicked me out."
"Really?" Wen Yiqing responded softly: "Then forget it."
But Shanshan is still a little worried: "Uncle Shen doesn't like playing with me anymore?"
Her friends said it was a lot less and a lot but not much. Uncle Shen was one of them. Uncle Shen always smiles when he sees her. This is the first time Shanshan has seen him look frowning since he was born.
She speculated again: "Did he lose money in business?"
"...Don't think too much."
Wen Yiqing knew it well.
After she explained to Shen Yungui that day, although she was troubled by trivial matters every day, she rarely saw Shen Yungui again. Even when the shop needed to be handed over between the two families, he sent a steward to come out as usual. It probably means giving up.
Normally, Mr. Shen would put down his body to please a little girl who could not walk steadily, but he was just in love with the house. Now that he has stopped thinking about it, he will probably not move around again except for business transactions in the future.
Wen Yiqing lowered her eyes, stared at the embroidered patterns on the skirt, and breathed a subtle sigh of relief. Shanshan is young and forgetful. In a few years, when she grows older, she will forget all the people and things she encountered when she was young.
Bian Chen's eyes briefly stayed on her for a moment, then quickly moved away.
The carriage passed through the long streets and stopped in front of Wen's house.
Shanshan didn't go home for several days. As soon as the carriage stabilized, she couldn't wait to jump out.
"Brother Shitou - Xiaoyun - wet nurse - I'm back!"
Everyone in the Wen family came out after hearing the news.
Shitou was the fastest runner. Before Shanshan could stand still, he was like a gust of wind blowing in front of him, and he stopped hastily. With bright gray eyes, he looked at Shanshan from head to toe.
When we parted last time, the little girl cried loudly and her body was covered in blood. Now when I look at it, I can see that there are no traces left, and I have even gained weight. It is obvious that I have lived a good life during this period.
He pursed his lips and showed a shy smile: "Shanshan, you are back."
"Others in the school heard that you were injured and recuperating, so they asked me to bring you a lot of things."
Shanshan said happily: "I also brought you gifts!" They were all treasures from the palace.
After not seeing each other for many days, the maids and servants all had a lot to say. They all crowded forward and pushed the stones aside. She was surrounded like stars holding the moon and walked in.
Wen Yiqing took a few steps behind her, followed by an emperor who was in disguise as a guest. Shitou glanced at it and silently helped his servants unload the things on the carriage.
Shanshan greeted everyone one by one and listened to the nanny crying for a while before taking some time to go to the stable in the backyard to take a look at the white horse that he had longed for.
The white horse has been well taken care of by the groom and is now eating grass obediently. She hadn't seen it for a few days, and Shanshan was afraid that it would forget him, so she picked up a carrot from the side and approached it cautiously.
She was still a little scared.
She still doesn't know why Xiaoyun suddenly went crazy that day. No one said a word to her, but the pain was real. Now when she saw the white horse, she immediately remembered the scene that day. Shanshan shivered, but then she quickly saw a wound on the horse's butt.
The criminal who committed the crime was extremely ruthless, and as long as it didn't go crazy, he didn't hold back when the dagger pierced its body, causing blood to flow out. Although the doctor came to see me, the flesh injuries did not heal quickly.
The scar floated on its snow-white body, like a crack in the perfect white jade bottle.
As soon as Shanshan saw it, he immediately thought about everything clearly and was not afraid of anything. She took a few steps closer, and the white horse remained motionless, looking at her unblinkingly with its clear eyes. She stroked its scar distressedly: "Xiaoyun, does it hurt?"
Baima couldn't speak, so he just leaned his head over and gave her a gentle lick on the cheek.
She cried in pain that day, and Xiaoyun must have been in pain too!
Shanshan was so distressed that she fed a basket of carrots into its mouth, then sat next to it and muttered to it how she was living these days - she told her mother in a letter, Shitou said it, but Ma couldn't read.
It was not until dusk fell that Shitou came all the way to find her for dinner.
"Today, the lady said she would take you home. As soon as the lady left the house, the servant asked the kitchen to start preparing. All the dishes she cooked were your favorites." The wet nurse diligently put vegetables into Shanshan's small bowl, piling it up high. Jian said, "Sister Shan has suffered a lot these days. Eat more and make up for it."
"She has gained weight these days, and even her clothes are a little tight." Wen Yiqing was helpless.
Nanny Chen disapproved and said: "I have heard that Sister Shan lost a lot of blood that day and was very weak. She is already weak. If she doesn't give birth now, she may have to stay in the hospital in the future." If you get to the root of the disease, you will have to suffer for a lifetime."
Wen Yiqing: "..."
She glanced at her little daughter, who had a rosy face, but she couldn't tell that she was weak.
The person next to her gave a low chuckle, and then there was an extra piece of chicken in her bowl.
Her chopsticks paused in the air.
Shitou glanced at the two of them in confusion, and then looked at Shanshan again. Seeing that Shanshan was concentrating on eating without realizing anything, he scratched his head and lowered his head to pick up the rice.
When dinner was halfway through, the servant hurriedly walked in from outside.
"Master, Mr. Shen is here."
"Uncle Shen is here?!" Shanshan raised his head, and without waiting for anyone to recover, he immediately said in surprise: "Quick, let him in!"
She also wanted to ask if Uncle Shen needed a loan from her if he lost money in business. The Queen Mother gave her many things, all of which were valuable!
Shen Yun had been to the Wen family several times and was very familiar with him. As soon as the person in front of him reported the news, the person in the back had already walked into everyone's sight waving a folding fan.
As soon as he stepped in and saw clearly the three members of the family sitting at the same table having dinner together, he let out a soft hum and closed the folding fan in his hand with a "snap".
Looking at the table full of delicious food, the big round table could hardly fit in it. He had been to the Wen family alone so many times, but he had never been treated so well.
Shen Yungui slashed his knife at someone, "It seems that I came here by accident. You have an important guest to entertain."
Bian Chen nodded slightly to him and nodded.
"Why are you here?" Wen Yiqing was surprised.
"Recently, my cook had to take a leave of absence. I originally wanted to go to Shiwei Restaurant to have a meal, but today Shiwei Restaurant was full. Tai Feng Restaurant is far away in the west of the city. The other restaurants either did not suit my taste or were tired of it. I stopped by. Here, I thought of Shanshan and came to see her.”
Shanshan said "Hey", "Looking for me?"
"You told me about your horse last time, but you were in a hurry and didn't see it. After I got back, the more I thought about it, the more curious I became, so I wanted to come and see you."
Shan Shan was delighted when he heard the words. She couldn't wait to let everyone see her precious pony. When Shen Yungui said this, she didn't even bother to eat and said quickly: "Uncle Shen, I will take you to see it now."
"There's no rush." Shen Yungui sat down at the round table skillfully and said, "I also invited an acquaintance. Madam Wen, do you mind having an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks?"
Wen Yiqing subconsciously felt that he had bad intentions.
"Who did you invite?"
"An acquaintance, he said he was going to pick up some things. I think he should be here soon."
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the servant hurriedly came to report.
"Master, Master Xiao He is here."
Wen Yiqing was shocked, even Bian Chen didn't expect it, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
Only Shanshan was surprised and happy: "Mr. He also wants to see my horse?"
Shen Yungui: "I met a little boy on the road
Mr. He, Shanshan has not been to school for a few days. Mr. He also asked me about it, but unfortunately I can't tell you anything. Now that Shanshan has gone home, it would be more convenient for him to ask me in person if he has anything to say. It just so happens that I still miss the wine-grained chicken made by your chef, so I specially invited Mr. Xiao He to come over and have this meal with me. "
Wen Yiqing immediately said: "No."
He immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
"..."
What's wrong? Of course, the status is not enough!
The emperor traveled incognito and kept it well hidden. Shen Yungui never had the opportunity to enter the palace to meet the emperor, so naturally he did not know his identity. But Mr. Xiao He waits in front of the emperor every day, how could he not recognize the emperor? !
Wen Yiqing tightened her clothes under the table and looked a little ugly: "It's not very convenient today."
"Why is it inconvenient?"
Shen Yungui did not look at her, but instead stared at the stern-faced man beside him. If he were a peacock, his gorgeous tail feathers would have been spread out and stood up high, naked | naked | exuding hostility to other males.
He smiled and said coldly: "Speaking of which, Mr. Chen is from the capital, so he should know Mr. Xiao He, and maybe he has met him a few times. Since they are all acquaintances, Mr. Chen should not care about these small things. ?":,,
