Zhou Mengfu listened one by one, answering one or two calls from time to time. As she was listening, suddenly a clear female voice not far away called: "Qingluo, Qingluo! Where did the lady's peony red palace dress go? That's It was a gift from His Majesty, and the young lady said she would wear it at the palace banquet in a few days, but I completely forgot about it!"
Qing Luo frowned, turned around and replied: "There are still three days left for the palace banquet, why are you so anxious?"
The clear female voice said again: "It's not that I want to find that skirt, but I remember that the silk thread on it seems to be loose. It would be disrespectful to wear such a dress into the palace. It will be sent to a tailor shop for repair tomorrow. , come and help me look for it!"
"I know, I know, here I go."
Qing Luo said and stood up to leave, but then he thought that this place was still some distance away from Aunt Zhou's courtyard, and all the maids nearby were driven away by him, so he couldn't find anyone for a while. He suddenly remembered that this place was not far from Shen Qingling's courtyard. He handed the lantern in his hand to Zhou Mengfu's hand and said: "Miss Mengfu, our girl has something to ask me about. Across the small garden in front is the yard of the fifth lady where our Aunt Zhou is from. You can go to her yard. Take a rest first, I will go and arrange for you to stay later."
Zhou Mengfu didn't care where she lived, so she nodded after hearing this. Qingluo felt relieved and hurriedly headed towards Shen Qingyi's courtyard.
However, she was so preoccupied with things that she forgot that there were two roads in the garden, one leading to Shen Qingling's courtyard, and the other leading to Shen Jingnian's courtyard who had not returned yet.
Zhou Mengfu walked forward along the gravel road. The path at the corner was covered by the shadows of large swaths of crape myrtle flowers, and she headed towards Shen Jingnian's courtyard unknowingly.
The front of Shen Jingnian's yard is covered with lush poplar trees. Looking at it at night, you can see that the winding paths are winding. There are only a few boys busy at the door, and there are one or two women and rough maids playing here. Yawning and carrying a broom and a basin, he went in and out, but he didn't see any maids as beautiful as the group of maids at the door of the house just now.
However, looking left and right, one can't help but wonder, this man is indeed handsome and beautiful, and he is a rare handsome man in the world. Anyone who has seen him must be deeply impressed, and he will never be so familiar. What he can see is indeed something he has never seen before.
He came up and asked: "This girl looks at Yansheng. I wonder which family she is from?"
Zhou Mengfu was confused but didn't think much about it. She took two steps forward and Shen Jingnian's personal attendant saw Zhou Mengfu's figure.
However, since she was in someone else's bedroom, Zhou Mengfu did not dare to say anything, so she felt blessed and wanted to get up and leave.
Shen Qingyi and Shen Jingnian have been close friends since childhood, and the attendant was not unaware of the news that Zhou Mengfu was coming to the mansion today. Hearing that it was arranged by Qing Luo, the attendant did not think much about it, thinking that Shen Qingyi meant that Shen Jingnian would not be here tonight. When I came back, I couldn't vacate the adjacent room for a while, so I could let Miss Zhou rest here for the night, so I made way for her: "It's convenient, Miss. Please come over here."
She was a little surprised, and when she raised her head, she saw the handsome young man opposite her staring at her, his eyes moving slightly, shining with a nostalgic and gentle light.
Shen Jingnian couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw her, and subconsciously took two steps back, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Shen Jingnian nodded, walked in and returned to the room.
He couldn't help but wonder: "It's so late, who will come to my room?"
He originally thought that Shen Qingyi was waiting for him in his room, but she fell asleep because of sleepiness, so he approached her with a lampstand to wake her up, but when he got closer, he realized it was someone else.
However, after taking two steps, she was hugged from behind.
Zhou Mengfu should not be confused after hearing his words, but when he called her "Fu'er", she knew that he must recognize her, and she couldn't help but wonder if she really knew the handsome young master in front of her.
"Fu'er, have you forgotten me? I am Jing Nian, I am your Jing Nian, how can you forget me?"
After saying that, he took Zhou Mengfu to Shen Jingnian's dormitory.
He stared at her and murmured in his sleep.
Zhou Mengfu replied: "I am Aunt Zhou's niece. Miss Qingluo, who brought me in just now, is busy with other things. Is it convenient for me to rest here?"
She rubbed her eyes sleepily, and when she saw clearly that the person in front of her was a young man wearing only an undershirt, she couldn't help but jump up in fright. She also noticed his attire and couldn't help but her cheeks turned red. She quickly took two steps back and said: "I, I didn't come here on purpose—"
The personal attendant had already fallen asleep with his hands folded on his hands on the small corridor in the courtyard, and Shen Jingnian couldn't bear to wake him up, so he went into the house in the dark.
He couldn't guess the reason, so he simply lit the candle. It didn't matter at this point, but he suddenly found a girl in plain clothes lying on the table.
Hot wax tears dripped on the back of his hand, causing him to subconsciously groan in pain. This sound woke up the sleeping girl.
This girl was born extremely well, but her brows were furrowed and she looked worried. The plain dress made her beautiful eyebrows even more elegant. The headband on her black hair was wrapped around her shoulders, which accentuated her excessively thin body. He is so fragile that people can't help but feel pity for him.
"Fu'er, I finally found you..."
At the same time, Shen Jingnian's carriage stopped outside the door.
He couldn't help but fell silent in the middle of the sentence, and he didn't know what he thought of. His face blushed slightly, and he quickly covered it up: "I know, do my grandmother and the others know about this?"
He seemed to have seen an unknown spirit that had transformed into something, and he didn't even notice the wax on the candlestick was shedding tears.
Hearing this, Shen Jingnian couldn't help but wonder: "My eldest brother is back so early? Could it be that he doesn't..."
The young man guarding the gate couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Shen Jingnian: "Second Young Master? Why did you come back just now? The eldest Young Master doesn't even know how long it has been since you came back?"
Shen Jingnian is a martial arts practitioner. The furnishings in the house are extremely simple, and there is nothing particularly obvious about the decoration of a man's home. Zhou Mengfu only thinks that this is a place for resting, so she I didn't think much about it. I was really tired from traveling for several days. I felt sore all over when I suddenly took a break. I was too embarrassed to rest on someone else's bed, so I just found a chair and sat down, lying on the table. After a while, I fell into a deep sleep. Fell asleep.
The young man said: "The eldest son was afraid of disturbing the old lady's rest, so he didn't ask anyone to inform him. He said he would wait until the old lady wakes up tomorrow."
He took off his coat and was about to lie down when he suddenly heard faint breathing coming from behind the screen.
The young man hugged her waist with an indescribable skill and gentleness, as if he knew every inch of her body. This thought overflowing in his mind made Zhou Mengfu's hair stand on end and she could not help but tremble.
She lowered her head and wanted to explain, but saw that the soap boots in front of her moved two steps forward, obviously walking towards her.
Zhou Mengfu was embarrassed and angry by this cross-border obstruction. She didn't care that she was in Shen Jingnian's room, so she used her cold hands to push Shen Jingnian's arm that was hugging her, and said: "Let me go." !”
Shen Jingnian's hand suddenly let go at a certain moment, but before Zhou Mengfu could breathe a sigh of relief, her shoulder was pulled by someone, and she staggered around in a circle, and fell on Shen Jingnian's head. In the arms of the year.
A hand grabbed the back of her head.
Shen Jingnian buried his head regardless
The next moment, Zhou Mengfu's eyes suddenly widened in shock.
Just because her lips were sealed with a kiss without hesitation!
