Three hundred and eighty fifth chapter see through
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Fu Jingchao took a long time to go out to accompany her. The two cuddled up and talked a lot.
After having lunch with her, Fu Jingchao had to go to the military camp. He said with some reluctance, "Just wait for me at the house. I'll be back soon."
"Go." Shen Xingwan said.
She was a little full after eating, so she sat on a chair in the yard and squinted her eyes to rest.
She could only stay here for two or three days at most, and she had to hit the road immediately.
So now she can sit but never stand, and can lie down without sitting. Her legs still hurt after resting all night, which is the sequelae of too much riding.
Just as he was sleeping comfortably, Qingsi came in gently holding Fat Meow in his arms. Seeing that she was sleeping, she didn't make a sound.
"What's the matter?" Shen Xingwan opened his eyes and asked lazily.
"Wen Ruying, the eldest lady of the Taifu family in Yongzhou, would like to see you." Qingsi said with a confused look on her face, obviously feeling that the other party came out of nowhere.
Shen Xingwan actually didn't want to see him very much. She just wanted to spend the little time she had having a good rest and being with Fu Jingchao.
"Just say that I am tired from the journey and am resting." Shen Xingwan declined politely.
Qingsi hugged Fat Meow and turned away.
He came in again after a while, "Miss Wen said that she once studied at Shengshi College, so she came here specifically to see her this time."
It was said that the two were sisters from the same school. Shen Xingwan rolled his eyes. The surname "Wen" was very special and rare.
Since they were playing the emotional card of friendship, she seemed a bit ruthless in refusing.
"Take her to the guest room and wait."
He got up and went to the room to straighten his hair in the mirror and touch up his makeup before walking to the guest room.
Wen Ruying was waiting in the guest room with a ladylike posture, following the sound of light footsteps and the flowing skirt.
A girl with picturesque features and cool temperament walked in, beautiful and cool.
It was rare for Wen Ruying's eyes to have a slight fluctuation. She thought that a girl who could do so many spectacular things would look like a heroic heroine who could travel the world with a sword.
I didn't expect to see such a slender and beautiful girl at first glance. Her temperament is not inferior to that of any lady from a famous family.
"Miss Shen." Wen Ruying greeted her first.
Shen Xingwan was also looking at her. She had a scholarly aroma that was more outstanding than her beauty. At a glance, she was known to everyone as having extraordinary literary talent.
"You're welcome, Miss Wen." Shen Xingwan sat on the main seat.
Wen Ruying smiled and said, "I took the liberty of disturbing you. I studied at Shengshi College for two years, so I came here to visit you."
This Wen Ruying is a wonderful person who makes people feel comfortable when she talks. He doesn't talk about anything else, he only talks to her about the past of Shengshi College.
I really know everything about Shengshi, and I can see that I really spent a happy time there.
As Shen Xingwan chatted with her, both of them missed the prosperous age a little.
Wen Ruying said softly, "Shengshi College has produced such powerful girls, and our batch of Miss Shen is the best, and we live up to the teachings of the gentlemen."
Shen Xingwan smiled and said, "Miss Wen is serious. You are so complimentary that my tail is going to be raised."
The two chatted quite happily, and Shen Xingwan didn't see any other purpose in her.
But she still didn't believe it, she just came to catch up with her.
Shen Xingwan took the initiative and said, "Miss Wen's last name is quite special."
Wen Ruying's expression remained unchanged, "It's really not that common."
Shen Xingwan smiled and said, "Speaking of it, we are indeed destined. Not only are we sisters, but we can also be considered family friends."
The four great aristocratic families once had very close contacts, but later their respective ups and downs due to various reasons gradually led to less contact.
"Miss Wen should be born into the Chong'an Wen family." Shen Xingwan revealed her identity in one sentence.
She had just received a detailed secret report about the Wen family from the Shen family's news channel before she came. She estimated that Fu Jingchao had not received it yet.
Because what was involved with the Wen family was the private affairs of the Shen family and the former prince's affairs.
The most important thing for Fu Jingchao now is to win the North in one fell swoop.
Wen Ruying was a little surprised that she saw through it so quickly, and said calmly, "I am indeed born in the Chong'an literary family, and I don't know much about the past."
A half-truth.
Shen Xingwan instantly became interested, "How is Chong'an? I seem to have never been there. How is the Wen family doing now..."
She seemed to be curious and asked several questions about the Wen family, and Wen Ruying responded to them very well.
"Although Chong'an is not as prosperous as Shengjing, it is a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters and simple folk customs."
"Since my grandfather, the Wen family has passed down the family tradition of farming and studying. Occasionally, there will be children who serve as officials. People in the family generally respect everyone's choice."
The literary family in Wen Ruying's words is sensible and open-minded. They mainly focus on writing and studying, and they are a harmless scholarly family.
Shen Xingwan looked very interested, "What Miss Wen said has made me yearn for this kind of leisurely life at the foot of Nanshan Mountain. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely visit you personally."
"Okay, you're welcome to come." Wen Ruying said generously.
The two of them talked honestly, and by the end of the conversation they both had a subtle feeling of meeting their opponents.
Wen Ruying saw that it was good and stopped, "It's getting late, I'm taking the liberty of disturbing you today."
"Miss Wen is an interesting person. I hope we have another chance to meet." Shen Xingwan said this, but in her heart she was sure that they would see each other again.
There is no unreasonable kindness. The most favored daughter of the Wen family's generation suddenly came to visit her, and it definitely had a purpose.
But what the purpose was, the other party concealed it very well, and she didn't have time to explore it for the time being.
Wen Ruying said goodbye and left, and Qingsi sent her out. On the way, she met Fu Jingchao who was returning from the military camp.
Wen Ruying bowed according to the rules and said, "I have met King Luo."
He didn't look much and left almost without looking away.
Wen Ruying breathed a sigh of relief after getting on the carriage, leaning on the horse a little tired.
The maid poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, saying distressedly, "Miss, drink some hot tea. Isn't that Miss Shen difficult to get along with?"
Wen Ruying took a sip of hot tea and said with a wry smile, "It's easy to get along with. It can even be said that everything is perfect and there is no leakage."
The eldest maid, who has been with her for many years, quickly answered, "Is it going to be difficult this time?"
Wen Ruying knew from the beginning that this was not an easy task. A woman who could stir up troubles in the world was not an ordinary person.
Only the men in the family would think that she is just a woman, and most of her reputation is not what she deserves.
Moreover, Shen Xingwan saw through her identity at a glance, which made her realize that something was unusual.
The Wen family has been silent for many years, and they rarely mentioned their birth in Yongzhou.
Shen Xingwan only arrived yesterday, and today he revealed her birth. This in itself is a dangerous signal.
It shows that Shen Xingwan himself cared about and understood the Wen family. The purpose of this concern is worth pondering.
Wen Ruying had a headache. She really didn't want to go against such a transparent person, but it was her family's fate.
