Chapter 32: Shengyuan in the eyes of two people (2)
Yongzhenyuan was very quiet in the afternoon. The eldest daughter of the second room, Sheng Yun, went to the kitchen to make a few dishes of **** and went to her sister Sheng Han to taste them with great interest.
"Put fresh milk, almonds, and tea into boiling water. There is no need to add sugar. Just pick up the milk skin layer by layer.
Stack five or six selected milk skins together, sprinkle some honey beans on top; then stack five or six more milk skins, sprinkle with honey beans, and stack like this about ten times, which is enough to be one finger high.
Just sprinkle dry cheese and raisins on top, then use a mold to gently press it into shape, and finally cut it into diamond-shaped pieces.
I have been busy all morning and got five small plates. These are specially reserved for you. Can you try them?"
Sheng Yun pinched a piece and handed it to her sister's mouth, looking at her with a smile.
Sheng Han lazily ate it from her sister's hand, pursed her lips with a handkerchief, said okay as if to deal with it, and then became listless again.
Seeing her like this, Sheng Yun couldn't help but asked with concern: "You were like this when you came back from Weeping Willow Garden. I thought it was for the garden party, but... what does this have to do with us? If you want to say that you are disappointed, I'm afraid it's Jiu from the third room.
It’s only right that my sister is lost! Of course, she is only three years old, so she probably doesn’t understand why she is lost.”
When Sheng Han heard her mention Sheng Yuan, there was a little displeasure in her eyes.
Although the nine-year-old Sheng Yun acted like a big sister, she didn't pay attention to this. She just said what was in her heart: "But speaking of the little girl Jiu Niangzi, she looks very cute. We have many sisters in the family, but she is the only one."
It makes people happy when they look at it.”
"Hey." Sheng Han was very dissatisfied with her sister's overflowing love. Thinking about what this girl looked like when she grew up in the previous life, she even curled her lips.
Although everyone said that Sheng Yuan was extremely beautiful, in her opinion, the girl had a plump figure, no graceful and delicate appearance in her movements, sitting and lying down, and she did not appear to be ethereal or flying. At most...at most
He is just a fat man who is charming all over the country!
"Huh?" Even though Sheng Yun was careless, she also noticed that her sister seemed dissatisfied with her little cousin, and couldn't help but curiously asked, "Did that kid recruit you?"
"..." Sheng Han wanted to say yes, but her memory clearly reminded her that she had only seen that girl once in her life.
But even in her last life, when she was in the boudoir, she had no disagreements with the sisters from her third bedroom.
So now she has to go against her conscience and say yes... It's not that she can't say it, but if she says it, who will believe it?
So after thinking about it, Sheng Yun, who faced her sister's curious gaze, shook her head dejectedly: "No, it's just that I have no fate with her and I just don't like her."
"Oh, that's right." Sheng Yun nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
She is not someone who likes to force others to agree with her preferences, so forget it if her sister doesn't like it.
However, she still reminded her sister that even if she didn't like Sheng Yuan, she shouldn't bring her out, let alone make enemies, "I looked at that little guy and thought he was very clever. I guess he had some talent in reading. She was very close to the Queen.
If there is hope for women to become officials in the future, we may not be able to support each other."
"Haha." Sheng Han couldn't help but want to laugh when she heard the eldest sister's earnest advice, "Is it just her?"
A seedling who is still studying? How is that possible!
That's a dude!
"It's just because I have a good sister!" Sheng Han couldn't control her excitement and confided in her mouth.
Of course, she didn't notice it for the time being, and was still immersed in the memory of her previous life.
She remembered that in the previous life, when Sheng Yuan was nine years old, her third uncle Sheng Xiangxun participated in a hunt in the Imperial Garden and by chance rescued the third son of the crown prince who was assassinated. As a result, one of his legs was broken and he could not stand for the rest of his life.
Because his most valued son was killed in an assassination, after the prince succeeded to the throne, he became even more grateful for his cousin's contribution. Therefore, after naming his third son as Queen of Chu, he married Sheng An and named her Princess of Chu.
The king of Chu was handsome and handsome, and his character was extremely upright. Because he was grateful to his father-in-law for saving his life, he often went in and out of the Duke of Sheng's house in the name of asking for advice, either sending gifts to Sheng An or writing letters to each other. Over time, they developed feelings for each other.
Gradually, King Chu no longer had any other women in his eyes.
He couldn't help but not have any concubines before marriage, and even after marriage, he had a deep love for Sheng Angui and there was no third person.
When the King of Chu succeeded to the throne, the ministers asked for a draft for a concubine. The King of Chu who became the emperor refused because the queen had five children.
Since then, during his more than ten years of reign, the harem remained vacant, and there was only the queen in the huge palace.
He and Queen Sheng Ran lived in the inner garden of the imperial city like ordinary people, surprising many women.
But it is a pity that the assassination by Huangyuan Hunting still damaged his bones, so that the prince died before he could grow up.
When the young emperor ascended the throne at the age of nine, the Queen Mother Sheng Ran became the Queen Mother Regent, thus beginning the legend of her nearly two decades of reigning supreme.
Sheng Ran has been illustrious for decades, from Crown Princess to Queen to Queen Mother. The person who gets the most glory is not her brother Sheng Xin, but her sister Sheng Yuan.
The king of Chu was very popular with the emperor before he was granted the title of crown prince, and the other brothers were all mediocre and did not dare to compete with him. After he was established as the crown prince, those brothers and sisters respected him even more, so Sheng Ran was very popular from the time he was given the marriage.
She is sought after, and as her sister who is a pain in the eyes, everyone naturally fawns over her.
The King of Chu had a habit of being a house-loving person. He was tolerant to Sheng Yuan at first because she was the youngest daughter of his savior. Later, he pampered and doted on Sheng Yuan because she was the precious sister of his sweetheart.
Of course, no matter what the reason is, it is enough for the King of Chu to treat that girl as his own sister. Oh, no, in the King of Chu, the face of a biological sister may not be as good as Sheng Yuan's.
When Sheng An came to power, Sheng Yuan's treatment became even more extraordinary.
After Sheng Ran stabilized the situation, he went beyond the rules and granted Sheng Yuan the title of Xiaoyaohou.
The sisters later found out that it was just a joke they had made when they were young, and Sheng An actually fulfilled it!
Who in the capital doesn’t know that Xiaoyao Hou Shengran is an out-and-out dandy? He spends his days racing horses and doing nothing serious. Even though he got the top tenth place in the exam, he stayed in the Hanlin Academy like his father and never saw any good things.
She did it, but the reward was not too short.
Even though the young emperor was in charge personally and the queen mother stayed away from power, she still respected the unreliable Ninth Aunt. Even Sheng Yuan's children were valued by the emperor.
Where do you want to go to reason?!
Thinking that she had not received any benefit from Sheng An in her previous life, the only time she went to the palace to beg her was to rescue her nephew who was captured in Shuntian Mansion, but she refused!
Although they are cousins, her son is also her nephew, isn't he? She doesn't expect her to take more care of her. She can't be the queen mother and watch her nephew exiled to a bitter and cold place!
Her son was just drunk and vindictive. During an outing, he accidentally entered a wheat field and injured the villagers' wheat fields, but then he didn't supply them. He couldn't get more than a hundred acres of land, so why should her son be exiled? He was just the governor of Shuntian Prefecture.
She wants to use her son to establish her authority.
Her husband's family made it clear that Shuntian Prefecture Yin did not dare to cause trouble for the Queen Mother's own sister, so he targeted their cousins. Unfortunately, only her son became the scapegoat!
The Queen Mother should have felt guilty and made up for it, but when she heard that the whole story had been told, she issued an order to the governor, demanding strict investigation and punishment. Unfortunately, her son was exiled as soon as he arrived. He was still a child. How could he have suffered all that?
Thinking about the past, Sheng Han's anger, which had been gradually calming down, emerged again, so she didn't notice that her sister Sheng Yun was speechless for a while.
She didn't notice it, but the maid and her mother-in-law beside her did. She hurriedly nudged her thigh under the table to remind her.
Sheng Han was suddenly startled, and then he remembered that his sister was still in front of him, so he immediately raised his eyes.
The smile on Sheng Yun's face was a little stiff.
"Sister?" Sheng Han didn't know why.
However, Sheng Yun saw that she had finally looked over, so she took a deep breath, raised her eyebrows, bit her back molars gently and asked with a half-smile: "Is there a good sister? Cousin Sheng An is only a few months older than me!"
You see, my sister is not good enough?"
Sheng Han's eyes widened following her words. She was stunned when she heard her usually gentle and gentle sister say strange words:
She is not!
She didn't!
She had no intention of doing so!
Unfortunately, before she could explain, Sheng Yun turned cold and said angrily: "It's the fourth sister that suits your wishes. You can treat her as your own sister!"
After that, without giving Sheng Han a chance to speak, he stood up, picked up the snacks he had made by himself, turned around and left.
Sheng Han was stunned: No, the gifts given to others are still taken back?
But the top priority is not about gifts or not. You can’t let your sister walk away angry, right?
At the maid's reminder, Sheng Han hurriedly chased after her: "Sister, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find a girl who can like me!" Sheng Yun dropped these words and left without looking back.
Sheng Han saw her sister's figure disappearing in a flash, and she suddenly felt dizzy with anger.
"Miss, hurry up and chase her to coax her!" The maid was afraid that the sisters would become estranged, so she hurriedly tried to persuade her. After all, she was just a biological sister, so it would be bad if the relationship between them became tense.
Sheng Han thought about her sister's temper, rubbed her forehead depressedly, and waved her hands: "It's useless for anyone to coax her temper. Just wait and let her calm down. School will start later. I'll see her tomorrow."
Just say it softly! She doesn't hold grudges."
The maid was doubtful, but the next day she saw her young lady coaxing the third lady into bed with just a few words, and she was immediately relieved.
On the third day, the girls' school in Fuzhong School started. Sheng Han and Sheng Yun went to school hand in hand. As soon as they approached the moon gate of the bookstore, they saw a fat man with his hands behind his back, a shy belly, and a figure-footed step. He was very arrogant in the distance.
Come.
