After she said that, she closed her eyes and said nothing again.
And Chu Zhengyang also fell silent.
No one else said anything.
…
Shen Qingyi hurried to Xiu Duyi.
When she walked in, she saw Shen Jingnian and Zhou Mengfu on the second floor from a distance, both looking embarrassed.
She didn't dare to go upstairs, but just called an attendant, gave some instructions in a low voice, and then left quietly.
Shen Jingnian and Zhou Mengfu were both awkward, especially Shen Jingnian. Shen Jingnian was even more embarrassed when he learned that Chu Zhengyang's good intentions coincided with his own. He didn't know what to do, so he didn't notice his sister's arrival.
A newly rehearsed play was being performed on the stage. Seeing the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, Zhou Mengfu said, "Second Young Master Shen, I..."
However, before she could speak, she suddenly heard Qing Yi on the stage flicking his sleeves and sighing: "Oh, Sir, Sir, you and my lady were originally lovers, but why are you so hesitant and unwilling to speak now?"
When going to the flower hall for dinner, the old lady suddenly said: "Today, I saw that little girl Zhou's face was full of spring, and she was dressed a lot more carefully. It's cold today, and the little girl is fresh, so she should always dress up so delicately. good."
If Zhou Mengfu really gets married, wouldn't it be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?!
Shen Qingyi felt something bad when she thought about it, but before they could speak, Shen Jingnian said urgently: "What about Feng Chunkumu? Fu'er is considered a young lady of our Shen family, and the Feng family has never seen her before. Just the words of admiration, could it be that they felt Fuer was lonely and just let them criticize her?!"
Shen Qingyi had already asked about the reason, and naturally knew about the disturbance that happened in Xiu Duyi that day.
She smiled and was about to speak, but when she blinked, she suddenly felt as if another newlywed couple had just entered the house.
Wen nodded and said: "Yes, it is Feng Chun, the third son of Feng Shangshu. I met him a few days ago. He is a handsome man. Although there are several concubines in the backyard, they have not yet given birth to a son. The Feng family has a strong family background. Madam said she doesn’t care about Girl Zhou’s family background, she just wants a beautiful, polite girl who can help take care of the backyard.”
Qing Yi said again: "Oh, there is a quarrel at the head of the bed and a fight at the end of the bed. A husband and a wife are in love for a hundred days. The husband and the man are the most powerful man, so he should take the initiative to bow his head."
They were very familiar with the Feng family. On that day when they were getting married, it was Feng Si who led troops and horses to block the carriage and make trouble, threatening to take Shen Jingnian's life to avenge his younger brother.
Zhou Mengfu: "..."
The old lady said: "If you are really good, please come in so that we can meet each other. The dignified Shangshu Mansion, with Zhou Yatou's appearance, should be a good thing to marry."
Yuan Wanning was still dressed in purple, and her features were still as beautiful and flamboyant as if she were unmarried. I don't know what she just said, which made the old lady laugh.
Wen, who was holding Shen Qingling in his arms and feeding her pastries, was the first to see Shen Jingnian and the two.
Xiaosheng said: "That makes sense. Miss, Miss, if you really have feelings for me, can you show up and get together with me?"
With these two younger brothers dead and one injured, the Feng family couldn't afford to offend the Chu family and Yu Jinxiu, so they naturally set their sights on Zhou Mengfu.
Shen Jingnian was well-informed and knew Zhou Mengfu's preferences, so he picked out what she liked and said it, making Zhou Mengfu laugh.
As soon as Shen Qingyi heard this, she looked at Yuan Wanning.
Shen Jingnian walked in. The old lady was sitting at the top, with Shen Qingyi and Yuan Wanning sitting on the left and right next to her.
Shen Jingnian: "..."
The eldest son Shen Yinian looked at his newlywed wife with extremely gentle eyes, as if he could not tolerate anyone else except Yuan Wanning.
As soon as she heard the word "Feng Family", Shen Qingyi stopped her chopsticks and frowned: "Feng Family? But the Feng Family of the Minister of War?"
Shen Qingyi, who was talking with Mrs. Shen, caught a glimpse of the interaction between the two of them out of the corner of her eye, and couldn't help but frowning and laughing silently.
Wenshi smiled and said: "Girl Zhou has just grown her hair, but she hasn't agreed to marry her yet. A few days ago, Mrs. Feng's wife came to visit, and she also heard that there is a pretty girl in our family who wants to meet, so she can talk to their third young master about matchmaking. I rejected him, but that day I met Young Master Feng San, and he was indeed a talented man, capable of both literary and martial arts, so I regretted it a bit."
Then I saw a girl opening the curtain and stepping up.
Shen Jingnian also blushed and said: "Miss Zhou, actually..."
That night the two of them went back to the house side by side, talking and laughing. The man was cheerful and the woman was delicate, which made the doorman stunned.
The young man pretending to be a scholar on the stage interrupted him again: "Oh my god... you and I were meant to be husband and wife. I thought we were in love, but I didn't mean to be in love with you, but it turns out that it was a misunderstanding!"
The maid stepped forward, took their hands together, and said, "Don't be awkward if it's true or false. If you are a lover, why do you need to do heartless things?"
Since Shen Yinian and his wife had only been married for three days, both Shen Taifu and Shen Yinian had taken leave of absence and were staying in the mansion. At this moment, they were holding Shen Liunian and Shen Qingling in their arms, sitting and talking to the old lady.
The two bowed separately, and finally sat together at the end of the room. They did not participate in everyone's joking, but only muttered and joked together.
The drums gradually started to beat, it was just a play, and there was a roar of applause from the audience. Shen Jingnian and Zhou Mengfu on the second floor also looked at each other, although they were speechless, they also smiled at each other.
When did the second young master, who had never been flirtatious with women, become so close to Miss Zhou?
When the two returned to the mansion, the sun was already setting, so they went to Mrs. Shen's Yongxu Courtyard to pay their respects.
However, after taking a closer look, she saw that the color of the gem pendant on the hairpin worn by Zhou Mengfu was the same as the color of the earrings on Shen Jingnian's ears, so she had no other ideas. He just smiled and said: "Lao Er and Meng Fu are back."
Wen Shi frowned and said: "What are you talking about? You just proposed to look at each other because we have never met before. Now Sanniang is valued by the Queen and is the princess conferred by His Majesty. Jingzhong wants to follow There are quite a few people in our Shen family who are related to each other, so it is natural for them to want to meet Mengfu. Could it be that because Mengfu is in our family, she cannot get married?"
Everyone deliberately concealed the incident on the wedding day from everyone in the Shen family. Therefore, the Wen family did not know who Feng Si was, and he was really planning for Zhou Mengfu, who had just grown hair. Bad export rejection.
When Shen Jingnian was about to speak, Shen Qingyi, who was beside him, pushed him with her elbow and shook her head slightly at him, signaling him to be silent.
Over there, Yuan Wanning said: "I think there is something wrong with this matter. Now that Mengfu is a girl from the Shen family, marriage matters are naturally arranged by the mother-in-law. The mother-in-law should consider it carefully. If If you misjudge the other party’s character, I’m afraid it will be bad.”
