I heard that few people come to this place on weekdays. At least when Liu Yingying and Shen Yueling came to pick mulberry every day, they never met any outsiders when they entered this place.
Liu Yingying naturally asked this question.
Shen Yuechan was about to reply when he saw Su Ziqing's sharp eyes falling on the fine hair on Liu Yingying's shoulder. He suddenly stepped forward and picked off the hair for Liu Yingying, and said curiously: "Hey ,What's this?"
Liu Yingying took a closer look and saw only a handful of brown hair, a very few strands. It must have been from the pheasant in the cage that flew around just now and landed on Liu Yingying.
She had just carefully cleaned it up, and fell to the ground and dropped some of it.
When Su Ziqing said this, Shen Yuechan also looked sideways. For a moment, both of them focused on Liu Yingying, and easily noticed that her hair and clothes were slightly messy at the moment.
For a moment, the curious gaze turned into a discreet exploration!
Liu Yingying's heart skipped a beat. Naturally, she would not reveal her "private meeting" with the eldest son of the Shen family these days.
They were also afraid that they would go there and bump into the eldest son of the Shen family who was drinking tea and having fun in the bamboo forest, and then learn about her "private meeting" with Shen Lang today, which would cause some trouble!
I don't know if it's my own illusion, but I always feel that this girl Su's eyesight is very sharp. After just touching her twice, her clear pupils seem to have understood everything.
Especially, to her.
Liu Yingying knew that she couldn't fool this person, so she covered her chest with half-truth and half-falsehood, and said with a scared look on her face: "Miss, Miss Su, if you are going to that mulberry forest right now, If so, be careful. When I was picking mulberry leaves, I suddenly saw a wolf leaping from behind me. It caught a pheasant and bit off its neck on the spot. , I was so scared that I paralyzed to the ground, but when I looked again, I saw that the wolf quickly disappeared without a trace. To this day, I don’t know if I was hallucinating.”
Liu Yingying seemed to have lingering fear, she lowered her head and patted her clothes and said, "I'm embarrassed to say it, but looking at this sloppy outfit, you two are laughing at it."
Liu Yingying said mysteriously, paused, and then said: "I must have made a mistake. Where did the wolf come from in the Shen family's courtyard? The wolf is a ferocious beast in the deep mountains and old forests!"
Liu Yingying didn't lie, but she pieced together the events of this day and that day and told them in a mixed manner.
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ziqing looked surprised.
But Shen Yuechan said with a clear face: "It must be...it must be the wolf raised by my eldest brother."
As she spoke, her face turned slightly pale and she said: "I heard that my eldest brother has raised evil beasts. The Yuqing Academy sent someone to inform me on the day that my eldest brother returned home, and asked us to go there if we have nothing to do. I I thought I had a vicious dog or something like that, but I didn’t expect it to be...a wolf!"
Shen Yue said calmly, with lingering fear in her heart: "Fortunately, we didn't rush in rashly."
For a moment, he turned his head and looked at Su Ziqing and said: "Sister, why don't we go there in two days? I haven't told you about it today. I will send it to Yuqingyuan when the silkworms are officially raised. A letter."
When Su Ziqing heard this, he glanced at Liu Yingying's face. His eyes were a little deep and confused, and he looked at her intently. After a moment, Su Ziqing withdrew his gaze and faintly frowned. He curled his lips and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Chan."
After a pause, he looked up at Liu Yingying opposite and said, "Next time, we can go together with Miss Liu."
Su Ziqing did not ask what the doubt was——
A wolf?
And why can we live in peace and harmony?
The two of them looked at each other steadily in the distance.
Liu Yingying's eyes flashed slightly, and soon her expression remained as usual, and she said with a slight smile: "Okay, but it's disrespectful."
So, the three of them headed home together that day.
The next day, Liu Yingying got the confirmation from Shen Yueling to leave the house!
She suffered some setbacks from Shen Lang and decided to go shopping to regain her confidence before returning to the Shen family.
Are you going to accept this little setback?
That can't be done!
Chapter 042
It is said that the weather at the end of March has become increasingly warm, and it is almost like summer.
Therefore, the Liu family knew what they were going to do when they came to the Shen family in Qingyuan. Before leaving, they did not give away the second and third bedrooms, but they gave Liu Yingying a lot of cloth and materials and bought her a lot of new clothes. Cloth is no better than gold, silver and jewelry. It won't cost too much money, but it can help her do this. With a small cost, if Liu Yingying can succeed in the future, the second and third houses will also be able to make profits. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
Jiangnan's underskirts and skirts are novel and unique in style, and have always been the most fashionable styles in Dayu.
Before this, Liu Yingying did not understand the background and family rules of the Shen family. She tried to be as low-key and low-key as possible. Now it seems that although the Shen family has strict family rules and strict discipline for the next generation, it is actually more about words and deeds. It seems that he doesn't have too much control over the dress of the ladies in the mansion.
It is a serious way of being loose on the outside and strict on the inside.
A month ago, the twins of the Bai family were dressed very coolly, but not many people criticized them. In addition, they had a bump in the ice cube face a few days ago, so it was rare for Liu Yingying to dress up today. Fan.
It's not too grand, but I've washed myself up carefully and put on a little makeup.
During this month in the Shen family, Liu Yingying has been dressed plainly and elegantly, mostly in light green or moon-white colors. Today when she went out, she chose an apricot-pink skirt. It was not too showy, and the apricot color was gentle and the pink was soft. The two colors are mixed together, exuding a touch of elegance and elegance. When worn on Liu Yingying's body, there is a different kind of freshness and elegance in the enchanting look.
In fact, Liu Yingying's facial features are rich, even wide-open and wide-open. She is more suitable for rich colors, such as bright red and green. These colors that others dare not touch easily, but she can combine those red and green colors. , it has become very rich and very gorgeous, but unexpectedly, this elegant apricot pink color is also eye-catching. I only see the red lips and pink face, as gorgeous as peaches and plums, and I feel The new moon is like a beautiful woman, and when the moon shines at the beginning, it has a different fairy look.
When Shen Yueling saw her from a distance, he stopped at the other end of the Moon Gate Cave, staring blankly and forgetting to come to his senses. Liu Yingying waved to her, and Shen Yueling was so excited that she regained consciousness in an instant. , immediately lifted up her skirt and ran over, took Liu Yingying's hand and turned it around, saying, "Sister, you are so beautiful, you are so beautiful. Just now, Ling'er thought those flowers planted by her mother appeared. I thought it was the flower fairy who ran out."
He stared at Liu Yingying with good eyesight, and said with a blushing face: "You are the most beautiful person I have ever seen."
As he said that, he came up to Liu Yingying and whispered: "She's prettier than my cousin."
After saying that, he remembered something and immediately stuck out his tongue and said, "My cousin is coming soon. Please don't spread the news. Otherwise, my cousin will be annoyed with me."
Liu Yingying was very satisfied with Shen Yueling's reaction. It seemed that her beauty and charm were not lacking at all. It was just that some people didn't know how to appreciate her. Why should those blind people take it to heart?
For a moment, she smiled and said, "Ling'er is trying to coax me. I'm afraid I'll say the same thing when I go back to my cousin."
Liu Yingying teased her deliberately.
Shen Yueling immediately said excitedly: "How could it be possible? Even at my cousin's place, I said the same thing."
Saying that, for fear that Liu Yingying would not believe it, Shen Yueling immediately revealed to Liu Yingying quietly: "Sister, you didn't go to the flower sauce banquet that day, but the flower tea sauce you made went. Sister Xi said that the flower tea sauce made by her sister Yi Jue is not only beautiful, but also skillful, so I echoed that my sister is the most beautiful I have ever seen, but Sister Xi didn’t even say the word “most”, so she turned around and met her cousin’s eyes. , Sister Xi said that my cousin agreed to what I said? She also said that my cousin was so beautiful and fragrant that she deserved the word "most beautiful". Although my cousin didn't say whether it was her sister or cousin who was more beautiful, she also said My cousin is so beautiful and beautiful, she should be a role model for women!"
"Obviously they are talking about appearance, but as they talk, they all talk about a woman's grooming and moral character and the role model of a woman. In my opinion, they simply don't want to acknowledge my sister's beauty!"
Shen Yueling has been getting along very closely with Liu Yingying these days. Because Liu Yingying is beautiful and kind-hearted, neither rigid nor serious, but also slightly humorous and knowledgeable, Shen Yueling likes her day by day and gets close to her every day. He seems to regard her as his biological sister, and is actually a bit more affectionate and affectionate than the other cousins.
She was naturally partial to Liu Yingying.
But Liu Yingying didn't say a word, but she wasn't annoyed. She just smiled and said, "Maybe you, sister Ying'er, are so beautiful, so you can't be on the stage. Dukes from aristocratic families have always preferred dignified and dignified ladies." Fang, the country is so beautiful and fragrant, people like me are probably disliked."
Liu Yingying blinked and smiled amusedly.
After hearing this, Shen Yueling glared and said: "Beauty is beauty. There is no difference between those who are on the stage and those who are on the stage. If you want to be ugly, then you are ugly. If you want to be beautiful, then you are ugly. If you want to be polite, then be polite. If you want to be talented, then be polite." When talking about talent, talk about family background. What are you talking about? If you talk about ugly beauty, just talk about ugly beauty. What should you talk about? Although I was born beautiful, I can't be on the stage, but I am not a role model for women, so I am here. If you don’t have the platform, wouldn’t a non-female role model be beautiful? Humph, you’re talking nonsense like this, under the guise of commenting on ugliness and beauty. What’s the point of belittling others? Do you mean you can’t afford to lose, or you can’t afford to win?”
Shen Yueling kept talking non-stop. After all, he was young, his mind was still pure, and he was very lonely and brave.
When Liu Yingying heard this, her smile showed a hint of helplessness and ridicule.
Yes, you see, even a ten-year-old child knows that ugliness is ugly and beauty is beauty, but there are some people in this world who want to blame all the reasons for failure on a woman’s appearance. Even beauty is It was labeled as an unseemly factor and was demonized.
Not even a child can understand it!
Or maybe it's not that the world doesn't understand, it's just that people who grow up have impure thoughts. Every word adults say is full of calculations and interests.
Even the ugly and beautiful are divided into three, six or nine grades.
Dignity, grandeur, luxury and grace are the best.
But Yingying Yanyan, enchanting and charming have become inferior.
You don’t know, but beauty is born from parents and is a gift from God, so who can get it?
Thinking like this, she met Shen Yueling's indignant gaze and thought that although Shen Yueling was young, she was still the daughter of the Shen family, and she had her own magnanimity at such a young age.
Liu Yingying suddenly raised her head and straightened her chest, releasing all the hidden beauty.
The originally beautiful beauty was blossomed into a twelfth one by her.
So what if there are warblers, swallows, and witches?
Jiang Taigong is fishing, and those who wish will take the bait.
You are in love with me, but she didn't force it!
Liu Yingying decided that she would never hide her again.
Even if you hide your stupidity, people who look down on you will still look down on you, and people who slander you will still slander you. Why not live your life vigorously and care about those irrelevant things?
For a moment, Liu Yingying couldn't help but regret that she didn't pull the towel cleanly from her waist.
Thinking of this, Liu Yingying suddenly became enlightened, smiled brightly, and said to Shen Yueling: "Okay, Ling'er said it very well. My sister has also learned this lesson. In the future, she will never mention what is worthy of being on the stage. If you can’t live up to the expectations, my sister will definitely not belittle yourself in the future!”
After saying that, Liu Yingying bowed towards Shen Yueling in a decent manner and gave a salute.
Seeing her being so polite, Shen Yueling blushed slightly and said, "Sister, don't make fun of me."
After saying that, he took Liu Yingying's arm and said, "If I encounter a bad person when I go out soon, I will definitely protect my sister."
"Okay, Guard Shen, let's walk!"
The two of them left the house with great fanfare, just like sisters.
First, I went to the silkworm raiser to look at the silkworm eggs. The plump silkworm eggs made Liu Yingying, Shen Yueling and I couldn't help but nod. They directly collected all the silkworm eggs from the silkworm raiser. , and was taken by Shen Yueling to visit the ancient city of Qingyuan.
Qingyuan is a thousand-year-old city, adjacent to the moat, with small bridges, flowing water, whitewashed walls and black tiles, and various historical monuments mixed with an endless stream of people.
Vendors hawking on the streets, small rafts passing through the moat, crowded pedestrians, and horse-drawn carriages driving on the bluestone pavement, making a creaking sound, all add a lively atmosphere to this ancient historic site. .
The carriage drove slowly and arrived in front of a jewelry shop. It was suddenly stopped by Shen Yueling. Shen Yueling said to Liu Yingying: "My mother's birthday is coming soon. I want to pick out a gift for her. This is the largest gift in Qingyuan City." At the jewelry store, sister, please take charge of the store for me."
Liu Yingying looked up and saw the three characters "Wan Qingsi" engraved on the door plaque above her head.
What an elegant name.
The two of them fell in love with each other one after another. Almost from the moment she got off the carriage, it was no surprise that all the passers-by looked in the direction of Liu Yingying.
She is beautiful in both bones and skin, but her face is turned sideways when she gets off the carriage, making it difficult to see her specific face. However, her enchanting and swaying figure still attracts many eyes, especially those on her side. The moment he got out of the carriage, two pedestrians seemed to bump into each other behind him.
Liu Yingying and Shen Yueling both looked behind them and saw a 17 or 18-year-old rich man who was hit by a pedestrian on the opposite side and fell to his feet. Even the folding fan in his hand was crushed under him. Lost.
The moment Liu Yingying turned around, the man saw her face clearly. She was lying on her back in the middle of the road, with a dazed look on her face, forgetting to react.
Shen Yueling was about to laugh, but the next moment she recognized the person, and immediately tugged on Liu Yingying's sleeve and said: "This person is Xue Er from the Xue family. He is a good friend of the second brother, and he has always been the same as the second brother. There is no formality, sister, let’s leave quickly and don’t talk to him!”
With that said, Shen Yueling pulled Liu Yingying into the shop.
There were not many people in the shop. The shopkeeper had already recognized the Shen family's carriage and had already arrived at the door. He saw that Shen Yueling, the leader, was young, had a good temperament, and had the bearing of the Shen family in his eyebrows. , suddenly bent down a little, not daring to be lazy at all because of his age.
He also saw that the girl behind him was so beautiful that it was difficult to chase her away. She was so beautiful that one dared not look directly at her. He had been working in this shop in Qingyuan for decades, but he had never seen such a standout girl. She was dressed in ordinary clothes and had a long hair. The gold hairpin is ordinary, which is completely inconsistent with this extreme beauty.
But he didn't dare to neglect at all. He quickly bowed his waist and invited the two of them in, and put all the expensive and exquisite jewelry in the shop. He also specially ordered people to put the private treasures in the warehouse. He came out and said: "Two young masters, do you think you can like them? These are the treasures of this shop. All the best things in Qingyuan City are here."
Shen Yueling picked out a phoenix hairpin and asked Liu Yingying for her opinion. On the day she came to Shen's house, Liu Yingying had seen a similar one on the head of Mrs. Su, the second wife. She was thinking about Mu. With a noble temperament, he shook his head briefly and said: "Although this thing is extravagant, it is too vulgar and will be of no use to my wife."
