It turned out that the girls gathered in the pavilion were curiously admiring Shen Yueling's silkworm babies.
Liu Yingying was ill for seven or eight days. She didn't see these silkworm babies for seven or eight days. She didn't expect them to be so big. All she saw was a plump one, fat and soft, and the big one was as long as her little finger. Short, creamy white, looking chubby and cute.
"Sister Ying, look, they have grown so big. I can't believe that their appetite has increased greatly these days. Two baskets of mulberry leaves a day are no longer enough for them. They look the same every day and grow in a few days. Now that I'm so old, my cousin and cousin just now praised me for raising me well."
Shen Yueling happily showed the fruits of her labor to Liu Yingying.
Although the girls of the Shen family were amazed by Liu Yingying's beauty, they were not strangers to the world. As early as the moment Liu Yingying entered the pavilion, everyone had already withdrew their gazes respectfully, no matter how amazed or surprised they were in their hearts. The acidity is not noticeable on the face.
The moment Shen Yueling directly picked up one of the fattest silkworm treasures and presented it to Liu Yingying, Shen Yueli jumped up immediately and said: "Hey, throw it back quickly, throw it back quickly, too much It’s disgusting, it’s so smooth and greasy, I’m most afraid of these greasy and squirming animals, I’m absolutely disgusting.”
Shen Yueli looked disgusted and pushed Shen Yueling's arm repeatedly while holding up a fan.
But she saw Shen Yueling laughingly holding up the silkworm treasure and throwing it at Shen Yueli's face. Shen Yueli was so frightened that she covered her face and screamed to avoid it. She shouted "It's fatal, take it away quickly". It was funny for a moment. Chen Yueling burst out laughing and said, "Look, I scared you."
During the fight, Zheng Xueyun, who was sitting at the back, stood up slowly with a smile, glanced at Liu Yingying, and said to Shen Yuechan and Mi Ya'er: "This girl is——"
As he spoke, his eyes fell directly on Liu Yingying's face, looking at him curiously.
Shen Yuechan was about to speak, but Shen Yuexi smiled and spoke first: "Sister Xueyun, this is the new Sister Liu. Has Sister Xueyun ever seen such a handsome person?"
Shen Yuexi said with a smile, looking cute and funny.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yueli, who was frightened just now, couldn't help but said: "I heard that Miss Liu was ill again a few days ago. I just don't know what kind of illness Miss Liu has. Anyone else who is sick is a weak Liu." Fufeng looks sick and weak, but Miss Liu becomes more and more beautiful as she gets sicker, and her face becomes more youthful and radiant as she gets sicker. Even when I look at it, I want to become seriously ill."
"Is there something fishy about Miss Liu's illness?"
Shen Yueli seemed to be smiling but not smiling. As he spoke, he lightly covered his mouth with a handkerchief, but his eyes glanced at the crowd. He smiled happily, and it was clear that there was a strange yin and yang in him, and there was a deep meaning in it.
Chapter 070
It was said that Liu Yingying came to stay at Shen's house because she was sick. It was known to the entire Shen family. Shen Yueli's words clearly mocked her for pretending to be ill and had ulterior motives for coming to Shen's house.
"Miss Li is joking, what's wrong with being sick?"
"It's just that I haven't been feeling well a few days ago, so my complexion has deteriorated a bit. I thought that today's birthday banquet for the old lady should not look bad, which dampened my interest, so I got up early in the morning and made some preparations. I didn't want to get up too early. It can be said that after smelling chicken and applying powder, I accidentally applied too much powder on my face, which made Miss Li and the other girls laugh."
Facing Shen Yueli's strange words with a gun and a stick, Liu Yingying did not feel annoyed at all. Instead, she smiled and directly admitted that she had "carefully dressed up" and had "ulterior motives" today.
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yueli glanced at her up and down, as if he didn't expect that she would stop talking at all, and he didn't expect that she would be so outspoken. He couldn't help but think of that day when she fought against Bai Ying. scene, not long after, he glanced at her lightly, snorted softly, turned around and walked towards Su Ziqing's side.
Perhaps it was Liu Yingying's witty words, or perhaps it was her frankness and directness that showed no cowardice or shyness at all. Especially her phrase "smell the chicken and apply powder" made everyone burst into laughter, and Zheng Xueyun kept looking at her several times.
At this time, Shen Yuechan pointed at Liu Yingying and introduced: "This is the new Miss Liu after my grandmother's old friend."
Then he pointed at Shen Xueyun and said to Liu Yingying: "This is the eldest girl from the Duke's mansion."
As soon as the words fell, Zheng Xueyun and Liu Yingying looked at each other, and then Zheng Xueyun smiled and said proactively: "Let me tell you, I know most of the Shen family's relatives and friends, how come I don't know about the Shen family?" There is also such a fairy-like sister coming, it turns out that she is the new sister."
As he said that, he looked Liu Yingying up and down and said, "Look at this sister Liu, she is so beautiful and beautiful. I don't know where the climate can raise such a beautiful sister."
After saying that, he thought for a while and then said: "Sister Liu's accent sounds like she is from Jiangnan. Did Sister Liu come from Yuanling?"
Zheng Xueyun seemed to be extremely interested in Liu Yingying.
asked with a smile.
Zheng Xueyun is the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and she is related to Shen Yuechan and Mi Ya'er. Although she is on good terms with the Shen family, in fact, Shen Yueli, Shen Yuexi and other concubines cannot get into her eyes, so she doesn't want to , but it seems that Du Dudu favors Liu Yingying.
For a moment, it surprised the people around him.
Several eyes were directed towards Liu Yingying.
Although Liu Yingying didn't know why the daughter of the Duke seemed to be so enthusiastic towards her, no one refused her friendly gesture. She paused and just smiled and said, "Miss Zheng has a good eye."
Then he added: "But I'm not from Yuanling. I was born in a small place."
While talking, Yao Yulan on the side smiled and echoed: "Sister Liu and I are half fellow villagers, both from Yuncheng."
"Oh? Yuncheng is not far from Yuanling." Zheng Xueyun said calmly, then suddenly and abruptly said: "I wonder if Miss Liu has ever heard of the name of Miss Hongfu, the most beautiful woman in the south of the Yangtze River."
Zheng Xueyun asked coldly, and when she said this, she met Liu Yingying's gaze.
His eyes were fixed on Liu Yingying's face, as if with a hint of inquiry.
But the moment she finished speaking, Liu Yingying looked slightly startled.
Red whisk?
I don’t know how long I haven’t heard these two words.
The moment these two words came out of Zheng Xueyun's mouth, and the moment Zheng Xueyun's eyes fell on Liu Yingying's face, Liu Yingying's two hands clasped in front of her waist tightened slightly, and her heart jumped twice. Next, a bad premonition suddenly flashed through my heart.
After a moment, her eyes flashed, and she quickly regained her composure. She pretended to be calm and was about to speak when she saw Shen Yuexi getting a little excited and saying, "I heard that Miss Hongfu is the number one prostitute in Jiangnan. Has Sister Xueyun seen her?"
However, Shen Yueli followed Zheng Xueyun's gaze and looked at Liu Yingying, and then at Zheng Xueyun, his eyes flowing.
Shen Yuechan also cast curious eyes on Zheng Xueyun.
Then Zheng Xueyun smiled and said, "How could I have the chance to see him?"
As he spoke, his eyes glanced around everyone's faces, and finally returned to Liu Yingying's face. He took a fixed look at her, then withdrew his gaze and said with a smile: "It's just my second uncle a few days ago. When I went to Yuanling City on business, I took a famous singer back home. The singer was beautiful and could dance well. She said she was nicknamed "Little Red Fu" when she was in Yuanling City because of her " Xiao Hongfu's name gradually became famous. I felt amazing when I saw her. I thought about how charming Xiao Hongfu was, and what the famous Red Buddha girl in Jiangnan should look like. Come."
As he said that, he looked at Liu Yingying again and said: "But when I saw Sister Liu today, I realized that there are people outside the world and there is a world outside the world. It turns out that I am narrow-minded."
Zheng Xueyun said with a faint smile. As she spoke, she glanced at Liu Yingying again, her tone inexplicable.
Some people think that Zheng Xueyun is mocking her by comparing Liu Yingying to a prostitute, while others think that Zheng Xueyun is admiring her alone.
Just when Shen Yueli didn't mind the excitement and was about to secretly make a fuss, Mi Ya'er, who had been silent all this time, suddenly started to speak without any surprise. Added another sentence: "I heard that the Hongfu girl has redeemed herself long ago and disappeared."
As soon as these words were said, everyone was shocked and looked at Mi Ya'er. Shen Yuechan even looked surprised and said, "You actually know about this?"
After a moment, he lightly joked: "Sure enough, beauties cherish each other, and beauties pay attention to beauties."
Mi Yaer shook her head with a smile and said: "I, Xiliang, are thousands of miles away from Yuanling. Guess, how can I pay attention to things thousands of miles away?"
Shen Yuechan and Mi Ya'er looked at each other for a moment. Shen Yuechan heard the overtones of Mi Ya'er's words and quickly reacted. She shook her head and said with a smile, "I know, it's the second brother."
Mi Yaer smiled and said: "No, I heard my second brother mention it a few times on the way. I regretted it all the way and said that I missed it. I knew I should have visited Yuanling City last year. Maybe I could see the beauty. On the other hand, he said that the loss was huge, and he also promised to inquire about the whereabouts of Miss Hongfu, which caused my uncle to reprimand the second brother with a straight face on the spot."
Mi Yaer's tone seemed a little helpless.
Shen Yuechan gritted his teeth and said, "The second brother is just a loser. He deserves to be reprimanded by his father."
As he said that, he smiled for a while and said: "I can't imagine what kind of beauty is famous in Jiangnan. If I want to see it, no matter how beautiful it is, it can't be as beautiful as these two people."
Shen Yue looked at Mi Ya'er and Liu Yingying with a smile.
Everyone was gradually attracted by the topic of Hong Fu. Liu Yingying retreated to the outside for a moment. While taking a breath, she raised her eyes and met Zheng Xueyun's eyes again.
Zheng Xueyun smiled slightly at Liu Yingying.
Xiaohong Fu Nishang is the oiran of Yixiang Garden across from Wanhua Tower. She is two or three points similar to Liu Yingying, especially her pair of peach blossom eyes. Although she is not as charming as Liu Yingying, she still has half the charm of Liu Yingying.
The two of them had met once before.
Unexpectedly, Nishang went to the Duke's Mansion.
Could it be that this Miss Zheng noticed something?
No wonder, on the meandering banquet table at the princess's birthday party that day, I saw Miss Zheng frequently looking towards her direction.
Now, I learned that Hong Fu has left the house——
Liu Yingying had a bad premonition in her heart.
However, I saw that Miss Zheng looked ordinary and did not see any strange behavior, so I was a little unsure for a moment.
For a moment, I thought that Nishang was in Qingyuan City. The two lived in the same city, and the Shen and Zheng families had contacts. If the two met, they would be found out sooner or later.
I don't want to, I have tried to hide and hide in Qingyuan City, but I still can't escape the past.
If it existed, there will be traces.
Suddenly, Liu Yingying sighed in her heart.
When she looked away, a thin layer of sweat formed on her back unconsciously.
At this time, Shen Yuechan led everyone to sit down, and everyone continued to discuss the trip they had just discussed. It turned out that every April, after Mrs. Shen’s birthday, the Shen family would go to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings. , then Zheng Xueyun suddenly said mysteriously: "By the way, speaking of going to offer incense, when my mother and I went to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings a few days ago, we seemed to see the eldest son of the Shen family in the temple."
Zheng Xueyun said coldly.
After hearing this, Shen Yuechan and Mi Ya'er looked at each other and said with some surprise: "No wonder the eldest brother has not been in the house these days. He went to Hanshan Temple."
While talking, seeing Zheng Xueyun hesitate to speak, Shen Yuechan immediately said: "Sister, what else did you see?"
Zheng Xueyun hesitated for a moment and said: "I happened to pass by the Discipline Hall during the placement meeting, and I seemed to see the eldest son coming out of the Discipline Hall."
As he said that, seeing that everyone was unclear about what was going on, Zheng Xueyun lowered his voice and said: "I heard that those who came out of the Discipline Hall that day were all disciples who were punished in the temple and were punished with sticks. That day... That day, I seemed to see blood on the eldest son’s clothes from behind, do you know what it was?”
Zheng Xueyun whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, several girls from the Shen family were all surprised.
Even Liu Yingying was a little surprised.
Those who were punished were all disciples in the temple?
What does it have to do with Shen Lang?
She was confused.
The eldest son of the Shen family was sent to Hanshan Temple to be raised when he was young. After being away for many years, outsiders did not know the inside story. Only a few families close to the Shen family knew about it, but they did not know the reason. Some people said that Shen The eldest son of the Shen family was born with evil spirits and needed to be purified in a temple. Some people said that the eldest son of the Shen family was quite wise and had a connection with Buddhism, so he was sent to the temple to practice.
The Zheng family and the Shen family had close contacts, and Zheng Xueyun and Shen Yuechan were close friends, so they knew some inside information.
Even the younger members of the Shen family didn't know much about Shen Lang, the eldest son of the Shen family, and they didn't dare to discuss it in the past. Today, when they heard Shen Xueyun mention it like this, they were shocked and looked at each other head-on. At this moment, I suddenly heard bursts of noise in the distance, interrupting the whispers of several girls in the pavilion.
I saw a group of people coming from Wuyangyang, each of them tall and tall, more than a dozen of them. They were the juniors of the Shen family from the outer courtyard, and they came together to celebrate the old lady's birthday.
It was nothing unusual at first. The brothers from the outer courtyard came over every month to pay tribute to the old lady. Today, in front of the crowd, suddenly there was an errand girl running towards the stage. She was running in such a hurry that she almost fainted. He dropped his feet and ran all the way to the old lady. He saw from a distance that he was being scolded by the maid. However, I don’t know what the errand girl reported, but he saw that Mrs. Shen, the birthday girl today, was being helped up by someone. , turned to look at the huge crowd, causing everyone in the audience to look in the direction of the old lady.
The girls in the pavilion couldn't help but look at Qiqi Nahan when they saw it, thinking that some big shot was coming and actually alerted the old lady to get up in person.
The next moment, I saw bustling sounds in the distance, and heard someone shouting: "The eldest son is here."
"The eldest son is here."
