Shen Ye said to Shen Yueling with a half-smile.
After hearing this, Shen Yueling stuck out her tongue at him and said, "Yes, yes, yes, second brother, you really wish you could lock us all up, so that you can arrive alone. It’s fun outside.”
Shen Yueling said with sharp teeth.
"How dare you talk back!"
Shen Ye hit Shen Yueling on the head with a fan.
The two brothers and sisters kept talking to each other, finally turning everyone's attention to them.
While the two were fighting, Shen Yuechan suddenly pointed with sharp eyes and said, "Second brother, why are you injured?"
She immediately walked up to Shen Ye, pulled his sleeve, and saw a bloody cut on it. Shen Yuechan's expression changed slightly in an instant.
Princess Qinghe and others glanced away, only to see Shen Ye shaking his fan and saying nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter."
As he spoke, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he suddenly smiled softly and said: "When I came back just now, a little wild cat pounced on you. The little wild cat looked pretty and gentle, but it was actually a bit fierce. Its claws were very sharp and it pounced on you. The second brother scratched his body like this and disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Shen Ye said with a smile, paused, and then said: "I will definitely wait and wait for it someday, and I will not let it go, lest it continue to do evil and murder others."
Shen Ye said with a half-smile, and as he spoke, he seemed to glance in the direction of Liu Yingying beside Shen Yueling.
Shen Yuechan looked suspicious after hearing this and said, "Really?"
Chen Yueling knew the inside story and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
When Liu Yingying heard this, she lowered her head and looked at her nose, nose and heart.
At this time, Mi Ya'er suddenly glanced at Liu Yingying's face opposite her.
After Shen Ye made fun of him, his attention was no longer on the girls. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw him holding up his fan and carelessly passed through the middle of the girls, which annoyed the younger sisters. Everyone stared at him and threw the handkerchief at him. At this moment, they suddenly saw Shen Er holding up his fan and shouting with a smile behind everyone: "Brother, why don't you come down?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ye held up his fan and walked directly across the sea of people, heading towards the steps above the high gate of the Shen family in the distance.
At this time, in order to welcome the eldest master and his party, everyone came down the steps and gathered around Princess Qinghe and others. Because their backs were to the door, no one noticed the people who appeared behind them.
After hearing what Shen Ye said, everyone subconsciously looked in the direction where he was speaking, and saw a jade-white figure standing on the high platform.
Shen Lang stood on the twelve steps, slightly overlooking the crowd.
I saw him wearing a white robe with fluttering skirts. He was standing with his hands behind his back. His cold and graceful face had straight eyebrows and a cold and sharp look in his slender black eyes. He was obviously handsome. , The spirit is as rich as jade, but the temperament is cold and clear, like the thin snow on the wintersweet branches, revealing a faint coldness, and like the pines and cypresses that are independent from the world, proudly between heaven and earth, there is a kind of life. The cold and forbidding temperament makes people dare not blaspheme, and they dare not approach at all.
After seeing that figure, the originally lively crowd suddenly fell silent.
I saw that those who were joking, chatting, or in a daze, or smiling were all silent at this moment. In an instant, the entire lively Shen family house fell quietly in front of the door.
It was so quiet...it was inexplicably weird.
Shen Lang stood on the steps, not coming down, and had no intention of coming down.
He stood with his hands behind his hands, and his gaze fell on Princess Qinghe who was at the center of the crowd. He glanced at her briefly and then said: "Mother."
The voice was very...calm.
Calm to the point of even being a little... strange and indifferent.
Then, his eyes moved and fell on the face of the elder Shen Bin who was a few steps away. He glanced at the man and nodded lightly without saying a word.
Liu Yingying couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw this.
Or, anyone who comes to the Shen family for the first time will definitely not only be surprised when seeing such a scene in front of them, but also be... dumbfounded, right?
This was the first time she had seen the eldest son in a public place. When she was alone, she felt that the eldest son was cold and unapproachable. Now that there were more people, this feeling was not only It has not diminished at all, but has become increasingly clear and profound.
It was so clear that she even felt the... condensation of the atmosphere in front of her in a detailed and clear way.
A kind of embarrassment or uneasiness that is clearly visible on everyone's face.
There is a hint of weirdness.
It was like a quiet house, but suddenly a wild cat's heart-rending scream erupted while taking a nap.
It was like when someone was playing a sad tune, someone suddenly burst into laughter.
It's like a serious customer coming to a brothel to order food.
Anyway, the scene suddenly became abrupt, inconsistent, and weird.
After all, who would be so indifferent to his parents? Indifferent to the extent that one should react when seeing a stranger.
The key is that everyone doesn't think it's strange, as if they have already become accustomed to it.
What's even more surprising is that Princess Qinghe's expression is also extremely cold. She even glanced at Liu Yingying just now, but now, her expression is indifferent and she doesn't make any reaction, as if It's not like I've heard it before.
The lively atmosphere suddenly solidified.
At this time, Shen Yuechan across from him pushed Mi Ya'er with his hand, gesturing for her to step forward to break the silence. However, Mi Ya'er quickly glanced upward and actually pushed Shen Yuechan up with her backhand.
As the two pushed each other -
Liu Yingying took another look, and when she raised her eyes, her eyes met Su Ziqing behind them. She saw that Su Ziqing had been looking at her, and Liu Yingying suddenly felt a strange feeling in her heart. Staring at each other for a moment, before they had time to react——
Fortunately, the eldest master stepped out at the right time. Unlike Princess Qinghe's indifference, the eldest master Shen Bin was extraordinarily enthusiastic. He had changed from his harsh treatment of the fifth master and his treatment of the second son Shen Ye. He disliked the majesty, so he immediately smiled and said with joy: "Brother Xian——"
While talking, he actually walked directly between the Fourth Master and the Sixth Master just like Shen Ye did just now, stepped up the steps, raised his hand to slap Shen Lang on the shoulder, but raised his hand. He raised his hand halfway, as if he realized that this move was inappropriate. He made a fist with his palm, took it back, put it behind his back, and said with a smile: "When did you come back?"
Shen Lang said lightly: "Half a month ago."
Shen Bin was very happy and said: "I will go back earlier this year than in previous years."
As he said that, Shen Bin raised his eyes and looked at the jade-like eldest son in front of him. He looked at it again and again. After a while, he looked complicated and said with slightly moist eyes: "I will stay at home for a long time when I come back this time." Over time, although traveling outside has broadened my horizons, after all, I have been wandering away all year round. Your mother and I... our family are very worried about you. "
As he said that, he saw Shen Ye shaking his fan and looking at him with a smile. Shen Bin glared and waved his hands and said, "I can't control this bastard anymore. Please help me keep an eye on him more."
Shen Bin said and sighed slightly.
His temples are gradually turning white.
Although he was still full of energy when he said this, the corners of his eyes had gained some age.
When Shen Lang heard this, he glanced at him lightly and pursed his lips slightly. Although he didn't say anything, he didn't refuse.
Shen Bin was immediately overjoyed and felt a little hopeful.
At this time, Mrs. Su saw that the atmosphere had eased and that a large number of people were still gathered at the door. She immediately smiled and said: "It's getting late. Princess, you've been working hard on your journey. Please come to the mansion and rest quickly." Well, the old lady is still looking forward to it in Shou'an Hall."
As soon as Su finished speaking, everyone finally surrounded Princess Qinghe and entered.
When Mi Ya'er passed by Shen Lang, she finally mustered up the courage to smile at Shen Lang and called him gently and quietly: "Big cousin."
When Shen Lang saw Mi Ya'er, his eyes fell on her face, and after taking a steady look, he nodded at her and said, "Yes."
Mi Ya'er breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at his chin, and quickly said with a demure look on her face: "I'm going to visit my grandmother first, and then I'll go see my cousin in the courtyard tomorrow."
Shen Lang said "Okay", and Mi Ya'er took Shen Yuechan's arm and walked in together.
As soon as the two of them turned around, a touch of apricot powder slowly came into view.
Shen Lang glanced at it, then turned around with his hands behind his back and walked directly into the door of the mansion with an indifferent expression, leaving Liu Yingying with a cold back.
Liu Yingying: "..."
Chapter 050
By the way, when Dafang came back, he went straight to Beiyuan Shouan Hall to say hello without even returning to Nanyuan.
The eldest master, Shen Bin, is leading the army in the west, west of Xiliang. He can only go back every two or three years, and it is always to escort the princess back to Qingyuan. Every year, the eighth day of April is the birthday of the princess, and the fifteenth day of April is the birthday of the princess. The old lady's birthday is on April 15th, and she will leave. She has not returned home to celebrate the New Year in five or six years, so every April at the Shen family, it is more lively than the New Year.
Due to the return of the eldest son, relatives of the Shen family who had received the news soon came to visit one after another. The Shou'an Hall in Beiyuan was more lively than ever before. The juniors didn't even have a place to stand, and they all gathered in the Shou'an Hall. Outside the door and outside the courtyard, there are three floors inside and three floors outside.
Not long after, I heard that the heads of various aristocratic families in Qingyuan City who had good relations with the Shen family also sent greetings to the Shen family. The notifications came one after another, and the threshold of the Shen family's door was almost broken. .
It was not until noon that the Shen family gradually dispersed after having lunch in Shou'an Hall.
Mi Yaer's residence is located in Huanxi Pavilion, next to Shou'an Hall. The environment there is beautiful, with carved beams and painted buildings. Every scene looks like a fairyland on earth, even better than the layout of Shou'an Hall, where Old Man Shen once lived. This is the residence where the eldest aunt of the Shen family, Mrs. Shen, lived when she was in the boudoir. Mrs. Shen died of illness shortly after marrying to Xiliang, so the old lady transferred all her thoughts about her daughter to her granddaughter Mi Ya'er. It can be said that he dotes on his granddaughter to the extreme, even as much as his own grandchildren.
Because Mi Ya'er was pampered and used everything meticulously, when she came to Qingyuan, her daily necessities alone took two full carriages. At this moment, Huanxi Pavilion was still packing, so Mi Ya'er was convenient. We rested in Shou'an Hall and reminisced about old times with my grandmother who had been separated for half a year.
There were always people in the yard just now, and the grandfather and grandson never talked to each other. As soon as the people left, Mi Yaer immediately took off her shoes and socks and climbed up on the soft couch and rolled in front of Mrs. Shen. He put his head on the old lady's lap and crawled into the old lady's arms. He kept greedily smelling the scent that belonged to his grandmother.
The old lady hugged the person with a doting look on her face. Seeing this, she couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Just now, I pretended to be dignified and virtuous in front of people, but now I have revealed my original shape as soon as I left. I don't know. Shame, you are so old and still look like a child, if your cousins saw it, they would definitely laugh at you."
Then he smiled and said, "Brother Yu, I'm not as clingy as you now."
Although he said this, he patted her back with his hands, and raised his hands to stroke Mi Yaer's hair, with a look of love on his face.
Mi Ya'er changed her virtuous and virtuous attitude, and could not help but hold the old lady's clothes and rub them, saying, "I don't care, my granddaughter is still young, and she will depend on the old lady for the rest of her life!"
The old lady laughed and said: "You are still young, even with a hairpin. Your mother was already married when you were your age and she is about to have you."
The old lady said with a smile, but when she suddenly mentioned her short-lived daughter, she looked a little dazed for a moment.
Mi Ya'er, who got into the old lady's arms, noticed the old lady's long sigh and couldn't help but turn her face out of the old lady's arms and glanced at the old lady above her head. This look , I haven’t seen her for only half a year. The old lady has more white hair on her head, and there seem to be a few more wrinkles under her eyes. Mi Yaer’s expression flashed, and she immediately said: “Okay, my granddaughter just arrived. Grandma just wants to marry off her granddaughter."
Mi Ya'er shrugged her nose slightly and said, "If my granddaughter doesn't get married, Ya'er will be stuck with you, a little old lady, for the rest of her life. You, little old lady, don't even think about sending me away carelessly."
When the old lady heard this, her thoughts finally returned quietly. She looked at her granddaughter with a smart and beautiful face, more important than her daughter. She couldn't help but raise her hand towards Mi Ya'er's face. He stroked her and said with a smile: "Ya'er, how did you know that grandma wanted to marry you out instead of marrying you in?"
The old lady looked at Mi Ya'er with a smile and joked, her words were full of meaning.
Mi Yaer was afraid that the old lady would think of her deceased mother and become sad, so she deliberately teased her. However, the old lady looked at her with a half-smile, and her words were clear. There are words.
Mi Ya'er was young and thin-skinned after all. She blushed slightly and got into the old lady's arms again. She said vaguely: "Anyway, daddy said that he would keep Ya'er for the rest of his life. So, It’s useless no matter how cruel my grandmother is!”
The old lady joked: "Okay, then I'll follow your father's advice and become an old girl in the future. Let's see what your father will do!"
Mi Yaer continued to say harshly: "When I become an old girl, my grandmother and father will support me for the rest of my life."
When the old lady heard this, she was so happy that she couldn't even see the slits in her eyes. Then she saw that her granddaughter was still trying to get into her arms, with a hard-spoken look on her face, and she seemed to be a little shy. The old lady couldn't help but put away her fun and patted her granddaughter. He said back: "Okay, this matter is going to be put on the table anyway. There is nothing to be ashamed of. However, I have been busy these days. This matter will wait until after your aunt's birthday." Grandma, let’s discuss this with the princess.”
As she spoke, the old lady took Mi Ya'er out of her arms and looked at her features carefully. She saw that she was like Chang'e in the moon, nothing in the sky or on earth. She couldn't help but look more and more precious. Said: "I am such a smart Ya'er. Grandma must not take advantage of me and go to another family!"
This word has clearly put her marriage on the agenda.
Although Mi Ya'er has known since she was sensible that she would marry into the Shen family and her cousin when she grew up, but now that such words were formally put on the agenda, she still couldn't help but blush. .
Every year in the past, when her second aunt, fourth aunt, or the elders of the Shen family saw her, they would smile and joke with her, but they would always look cryptic. Unlike this year, when she was in the main hall just now, , the clan's second grandma even grabbed her hand and said clearly with a naked smile: "The Shen family hasn't held a happy event for many years, should they be able to do it this year?"
As he spoke, he frequently glanced at Mi Yaer in front of the old lady.
It caused everyone to exchange glances and burst into laughter.
