Two hundred and twentieth eight chapters tempted (two)
Eunuch Feng took one look and couldn't help but take another look.
A character obsessed with beauty.
Shen You was not annoyed, he even raised his eyes and smiled at Eunuch Feng again.
Shen Jia vaguely felt something was wrong. After dinner, while Eunuch Feng and Da Feng were chatting, Shen Jia dragged Shen You along for the convenience.
Shen Jia said "I have something to tell you", so Shen You had no choice but to go with him.
"Fourth brother," Shen Jia said with a sullen face, "What is the relationship between you and that Feng San'er?"
Shen You was rarely asked to feel guilty, so he coughed and said, "I work as an errand for His Highness. Eunuch Feng is the adopted son of Eunuch Yang, and he often works for His Highness. We are quite familiar with each other."
Shen Jia glanced at Shen You suspiciously: "There are so many people around Your Highness, who are you familiar with, but why are you so close to a dead eunuch?"
The word "dead eunuch" sounds a little harsh.
Shen You's face darkened slightly and he glanced at Shen Jia: "Eunuch Feng is my good friend. Even if you don't like her, you should be more careful in what you say and don't talk nonsense."
Shen Jia rolled his eyes: "Look, I just said "death eunuch" and you showed me your face. I am your third brother! You have to fall out with your third brother because of Feng San'er."
Reasoning with Shen Jia is undoubtedly asking for trouble.
Shen You had no choice but to keep silent.
Shen Jia babbled for a while, feeling a little calmer: "Don't think I'm too long-winded. You've already made an engagement, and you'll be able to marry Shaojun in a year or two. Shaojun's cousin is very affectionate towards you, and the Cui family's grandmother is very fond of you." You're very nice too. Don't do anything to displease Shaojun's cousin."
"That Feng San'er has already purified himself and cannot be considered a man. I heard that these chambermaids all have some perverted hobbies. Some like to visit brothels, and some like men. But you have been seduced by Feng San'er and lost your mind. "
Shen You: "..."
Shen You twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't bear it anymore: "Third brother! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Shen You lowered his face, exuding a frightening chill.
Shen Jia was not afraid of him and glared back: "I'm afraid that you won't be able to control yourself for a moment and do something that you will regret. If you can't forgive my cousin Shaojun, I will be the first to spare you."
Shen Jia has a sincere young heart. He fell in love with Feng Shaojun at first sight that day. Later, his youthful feelings were cut off early. However, he has always been very good to Feng Shaojun.
Shen You and Shen Jia looked at each other, their hearts softened quickly, and they whispered: "I know."
Shen Jia felt relieved and said, "As long as you know what's going on."
Shen You was in a complicated mood, and after a while he asked in a low voice: "Third brother, have you never forgotten Shaojun's cousin?"
When Shen Jia heard this, she was startled. She reached out and patted Shen You heavily on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about! That is your fiancée, my future sister-in-law. Since the two of you made the engagement, I I have never had any thoughts that I shouldn’t have. If you can’t trust others, can’t you trust me?”
This slap used 80% of the force, causing Shen You's shoulder to burn.
The darkness that flashed through Shen You's heart was completely captured.
Shen You felt a little ashamed: "Of course I trust you. I just said it casually, so don't take it to heart."
Shen Jia was really worried: "Forget it, I am your third brother and I won't argue with you."
After a pause, he smiled and said: "Before, I always thought that what I liked was a girl like Shaojun's cousin. She is soft, beautiful, and charming, and makes people feel pity and protection."
"After meeting Miss Lei today, I realized that there is another kind of girl in the world. She is heroic and powerful."
"Fourth brother, it's a pity that you didn't see it with your own eyes. The way she looked when she was beating people with her long whip was so beautiful."
"I must marry her as my wife."
"I have already begged my mother. In a few days, my mother will invite the official media to go to Lei's house to propose marriage. When I take a break next month, I will go to Lei's house to see her."
When Shen Jia mentioned Miss Lei, her eyes sparkled and her expression was high.
A smile flashed in Shen You's eyes.
…
Five days later, Da Feng invited the official media to go to Lei's house.
This official mediator's surname is He. She has always been single and unmarried. She is already in her thirties this year. She is known as Mrs. He. She is eloquent and is the most famous official mediator in the capital.
Mrs. Lei was secretly happy when she met the official media invited by the Shen family. But her face was dignified and reserved: "Ms. He, why did you come to our Lei Mansion today?"
Madam He smiled and said, "I came to the house to propose marriage today because of Mrs. Shen's request."
There was no beating around the bush at all, he stated his purpose straightforwardly.
Mrs. Lei was still very reserved: "Oh? Which Mrs. Shen?"
Madam He was used to playing matchmaker, and she knew very well that the woman was very self-respecting when talking about marriage. Even if they had met each other before and were interested in each other, she still had to show the man's sincerity in asking for marriage when talking to matchmakers.
So, Mrs. He explained the situation of the Shen family in detail, and praised the great Feng family again and again. In her words, Shen Jia was unparalleled in the world.
Mrs. Lei actually knew the Shen family better than Mrs. He, so she pretended not to know and listened carefully.
It is impossible to respond on the spot. You will have to consider it for a period of time before replying.
Mrs. He said goodbye and left with a smile.
As soon as Mrs. He left, Mrs. Lei breathed a sigh of relief, her face showed joy, and she quickly went to her daughter's boudoir.
Lei Xiaoxue's boudoir is also different from ordinary ladies. There are no Duobao Pavilion screens and the like that the girl's family loves, and there are no traces of light gauze curtains and bead curtains. It is simple, clean and tidy.
In the small study room, there are mostly travel notes and military books.
"Where is she?" Mrs. Lei asked the maid.
The maid replied in a low voice: "Back to Madam, the young lady has gone to the martial arts training room."
Sure enough, I went to the martial arts studio again.
Mrs. Lei has a headache.
Lei Xiaoxue doesn't like reading, playing the piano or painting. Other girls gather together to enjoy flowers and write poems, but Lei Xiaoxue likes to go to the martial arts studio.
It's no wonder that other girls don't associate with Lei Xiaoxue. There is no other such a unique young girl in the whole capital.
Mrs. Lei had no choice but to go to the martial arts training room.
As soon as the door was opened, the long whip flew over. Mrs. Lei flashed past and glared at her: "Stop quickly, I have something to tell you."
Lei Xiaoxue put away the whip and walked over: "Mom, what do you want to tell me?"
Mrs. Lei took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her daughter's forehead while laughing softly: "The Shen family has invited someone to come to propose marriage. It's the Shen Jia you saw outside Puji Temple a few days ago."
"Mrs. Shen is famous for her good temper. Shen Jia is also an outstanding young man, but he is a bit too young."
