Jiang Youyao ran away, this is a fact that no one expected. Jiang Youyao was still there in the daytime yesterday, and there was no one when I went to see it this morning. It can be seen that Jiang Youyao could only leave the house last night when there were no talents around.
Mrs. Jiang almost fainted angrily, and immediately asked Pearl to bring Yao Guangzhu's two maids for interrogation. When Jinhua and Yinhua were taken to Wanfengtang, their faces were pale, and they obviously knew that something serious happened this time. Old Mrs. Jiang looked at them and said coldly: "Just talk about it."
Jin Hua hesitated a little, for some reason she was loyal to Jiang Youyao. At this point, she was still unwilling to betray Jiang Youyao, perhaps because she was afraid that Jiang Youyao would ask her to settle accounts afterwards.
Mrs. Jiang sneered: "Come here, drag these two maids out and sell them."
"Selling" means selling into a brothel. Jin Hua was frightened immediately. They were the personal servants of the official lady. Such servants would either marry the lady, and become aunts by their uncle. Either it is to marry and be a lady in charge, no matter how better than a broken brothel.
Before Jin Hua could speak, Yin Hua had already kowtowed her head at Mrs. Jiang, and said: "Old lady, the servant girl knows where Miss San has gone, Miss San has gone to Ji's house!"
Jin Hua was taken aback, why did Yin Hua just say it? Little did she know that Yinhua had long been dissatisfied with Jiang Youyao, Jiang Youyao was self-willed, and even if she was dissatisfied with the maid around her, she beaten and scolded. Ji Shuran used to control her, but she had to converge a little bit. Now that Ji Shuran is dead, I don't know if Jiang Youyao's temperament is getting more and more irritable, and she often doesn't treat her and Jinhua as human beings. Pity them as Jiang Youyao's personal maids, not only can't tell the right and wrong of her own lady, but they have to endure this inhuman abuse.
Now that Jiang Youyao is in an accident, Yinhua is unwilling to let herself lose her life because of Jiang Youyao's mistakes. Therefore, she was not entangled like Jin Hua, saying: "Old lady, last night the lady asked the servants and Jin Hua to clean up for her, but the gold and silver were soft. The door was opened again, and the servants put laxatives in the tea in the door. , Taking advantage of their time to go to Mao Luan, the third lady escaped from the house."
Lu curiously said: "Escape? Why did she escape from the mansion? If she wants to go to Ji's house, she can go by herself?"
Yinhua wailed twice before saying: "The third lady thinks that now that the mansion has restrained her, she will not be allowed to go out of the house again in this life, let alone return to the Ji family. The third lady said that she must go back to the Ji family. The slaves did not dare to provoke the master, and the slaves’ deeds of selling were still on the master... Besides, the slaves thought, they reported the matter to the old lady early this morning, so that even if the third lady went to Ji’s house, the old lady could Send someone to find it."
Mrs. Jiang's expression was very ugly. In Yinhua's words, Jiang Youyao was clearly dissatisfied with the Jiang family, so she wanted to go to Ji's family to find comfort. Such a young lady is simply... stupid!
Lu Shi also followed: "You Yao is too arrogant and indulgent. How can you think that the mansion will keep her locked up for a lifetime? It's nothing more than that she has been on the cusp of the storm recently. If she goes out, it will not be good. It is better to stay in the mansion. Here, avoid the limelight and talk about it. How kind of a donkey's liver and lungs, so unclear about people."
"Enough! Don't say a few words!" Mrs. Jiang said angrily, and Lu immediately said nothing. Old Mrs. Jiang said again: "Find the boss for me. If something like this happens, he has to go to Ji's family to ask for someone! The young lady of Jiang's family lives in Ji's house, and she wants to tell you what it is like!"
Originally, the Jiang family had become a commoner in Yanjing City because of Ji Shuran. If Jiang Youyao went to the Ji family, what would others think? Although Mrs. Jiang kept saying that Jiang Youyao was stupid, she grew up in front of her, and her grandparents’ love is not hypocritical. When Jiang Youyao acted like this, in the eyes of outsiders, you would only think that those rumors were true. Jiang Youyao was really an affair between Ji Shuran and the foreigner, and Jiang Youyao was really ruined!
Seeing Mrs. Jiang's movement, Jiang Li sighed slightly in her heart. Jiang Youyao has made so many mistakes, and Mrs. Jiang is still not completely disappointed in her. She was originally an excellent identity, but this stupid woman has made it irreparable. It can be seen that what is going on in the end is that you still have to go on your own.
Jiang Jingrui casually said: "Who else is there? She wants to go back to Ji's house, so she will go back to Ji's house! It's great that we have one less mouth to eat in our house."
Lu's hurriedly pulled Jiang Jingrui. Although she thought so in her heart, looking at Mrs. Jiang's expression, it was obvious that Jiang Youyao did not intend to keep Jiang Youyao living in Ji's house. The old lady was already very angry. Jiang Jingrui was adding fuel to the fire at this time, which was not a good thing.
Jiang Yuanbai got the news when he got off the court, and he hurried over. He looked pale when he heard about it, and took someone to Ji's house to be an important person without saying a word.
Jiang Jingrui went out of Wanfengtang, bit her ears with Jiang Li, and said, "Do you guess Jiang Youyao will come back with her uncle?"
"Of course."
"Why?" Jiang Jingrui seemed disappointed, and said, "Don't the Ji family keep her? She is also the grandson of the Ji family anyway."
Jiang Li said, "You know it's your grandson. Regarding Ji Shuran's affairs, the Ji family is just right and won't say much to the Jiang family. Besides, Jiang Youyao staying at Ji's house is not a good thing for her. Only let her return. Jiang Family, it is the best result for each other. As for Jiang Youyao's own wishes, is it important?"
Jiang Jingrui scratched his head, and finally said: "Yes, her will is not very smart anyway."
Jiang Li walked to Fangfeiyuan. On the first day of the new year, Jiang Youyao unexpectedly gave the whole Jiang family such a big surprise, which Jiang Li did not expect. Maybe when she was taken by Zhao Ke to leave through Jiang's "back door" last night, Jiang Youyao was also sneaking away through the front door.
It's just... The trouble Jiang Youyao will face next when he returns to the mansion will be more. At least for the sudden loss of her mother, Jiang Yuanbai and Mrs. Jiang's guilt, which was one of the few, must have disappeared at this moment.
Jiang Youyao has no support.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yuanbo returned with someone. Jiang Li herself was in Fangfeiyuan. She thought she would see a frustrated Jiang Youyao, but Tonger hurriedly ran from the outside. She covered the door as soon as she entered, and said to the inexplicable Bai Xue and Jiang Li, "Something happened!"
"How?" Jiang Li asked. "A big deal happened" in this mansion every three to five, and it really wasn't a big deal in the final analysis. As for Jiang Youyao, Jiang Li doesn't think she can still make much trouble now.
"The master took someone to the Ji's house to find the third lady at noon, and came back empty-handed at this time. The slave-maid thought it was the third lady who insisted on staying at the Ji's house, but then he heard the old lady make a big fire outside of Wanfengtang. The second master also advised the master to find someone as soon as possible." After a pause, she said, "The third lady didn't go to Ji's house, she's gone!"
"Didn't go to Ji's house?" At this moment, Jiang Li's eyes condensed. Jiang Youyao's talk about how smart he is, maybe even Jiang Yu'e can't match it. If you don't go to Ji's house, where else can you go in this Yanjing city... Could it be that you are looking for Jiang Yu'e, or Zhou Yanbang? After all, following Jiang Youyao's temperament, in the world, except for the Ji family, who is the most trustworthy in the world, is Zhou Yanbang, the son of Ningyuan Hou, right
Bai Xue also thought of going with Jiang Li, and asked, "Miss San will not go to Ningyuan Hou Mansion, right?"
"It's also possible, but I really want to go to Ningyuan Hou Mansion, and the Hou Mansion should send someone to tell me soon."
"Why?" Tonger said: "So anxious to protect yourself?"
"Shen Ruyun is going to marry the Ningyuan Hou Mansion soon," Jiang Lihun smiled carelessly, "Shen Ruyun's brother Shen Yurong is a short-term person, and he must have said hello to the Zhou family before this. How dare the Zhou family be negligent. What is the appearance of Jiang Youyao? Besides, Jiang Youyao has a bad reputation now, and Zhou Jiasheng is afraid that Zhou Yanbang and Jiang Youyao may be involved, and it is too late to escape."
"In that case, as long as the third lady goes to Ningyuanhou's mansion, our mansion will soon find out?" Tong'er asked.
Jiang Li nodded: "So don't worry too much. Even though Yanjing City is big, his father didn't report to an official. As long as Jiang Youyao doesn't meet bad people, he can quickly find out whereabouts when he meets bad people." She turned around. Body, said lightly: "We just have to wait and see the changes."
This was Jiang Li's idea, and she was certain that Jiang Youyao would not be far away. Apart from other conditions, Jiang Youyao alone is not a bitter temperament. I'm afraid I will regret staying outside for half a day.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Li's idea was wrong.
At night, there was still no news of Jiang Youyao. Tonger secretly went to find out where the maid she was acquainted with, and heard that Jiang Yuanbai had also gone to Ningyuanhou's Mansion to find someone, but she still found nothing. The people sent out to track Jiang Youyao's whereabouts also did not find any trace of Jiang Youyao. A good person, as if disappeared out of thin air. Mrs. Jiang had already discussed with Jiang Yuanbai whether to report to the official, but once he reported to the official, Jiang Youyao's statement was really detrimental.
After arguing for a long time, at last Lu Shi and Jiang Yuanping also joined in, and finally decided to report to the official tomorrow morning. Fame is important, but life comes first.
Tong'er and Bai Xue went out after a few words, Jiang Li collapsed and blew out the lamp, but couldn't sleep. Thinking about Jiang Youyao always felt strange.
How could such a big person disappear for no reason. If you walk on the street, it is naturally easy to be found, and no one of the officials who knows dares to hide her. Even Jiang Yuanbai sent people to the teahouse brothel to see if he was caught by traffickers, but to no avail. There is no news of Jiang Youyao in the mark of leaving the city gate. Could it be... Who is hiding her
Jiang Li thought about it, but in the end he didn't come up with a result. He rolled over and closed his eyes. I'll talk about things tomorrow, and let the reporter Jiang Yuanbai let people find them again. If you can't find it... If you can't find it, ask Zhao Ke.
Maybe he can know.
…
In the morning of the second day, when Jiang Li came out of Fangfeiyuan to greet Mrs. Jiang, he did not see Jiang Yuanbai's shadow, so he should have taken someone to report to the official. Lu Shi was also there, but he was not as hot and shrewd as usual. He sat aside quietly, and shook his head at Jiang Li, as if to warn Jiang Li not to make the old lady angry, just just wait and see what happens.
Old Madam Jiang was probably really angry. Before Ji Shuran's affairs hadn't figured out any good or bad, Jiang Youyao had another wave. The Jiang family is really going to be the laughingstock of Yanjing City.
The atmosphere in Wanfengtang was very silent. At this moment, Jade suddenly walked in, holding a post in her hand, and sent the post to Mrs. Jiang, while saying: "Old lady, Zhongshu Shelang’s mother sent the post. coming."
Chusho Sharo? Jiang Li's heart moved, Shen's family? She involuntarily raised her head and looked at the post in Mrs. Jiang's hand.
After reading the post quickly, Mrs. Jiang seemed a little tired, and said: "Go back, I'd better avoid going out these few days, and I haven't had much contact with Shen Jiaben. There is also the matter of the five girls, and it's embarrassing to go there." She saw Jiang Li staring at the post in her hand blankly.
Jiang Li came from Jiang Mansion, and looked calm and gentle with everything. Whether it was jewelry or silk satin, she gave her a smile, but she didn't look too happy. This undesirable appearance is gratifying and a little disturbed, especially for the old lady and Jiang Yuanbai who want to make up for Jiang Li's past grievances. At this moment, Mrs. Jiang suddenly saw Jiang Li's rare appearance of interest. After thinking for a while, she said, "Second girl, do you want to go?"
Jiang Li was startled, Lu Shi also looked at her, Jiang Li smiled slightly: "It's just a little curious." Although she said so, she still looked at the post.
Mrs. Jiang immediately understood it, pondered it for a while, and said: "If that's the case, I will accept this post. Since they are invited, it seems that my Jiang family's confidence is not enough if they don't go. There was nothing wrong, but I don't know what they said behind the scenes. Two days later, Er girl, you should also dress up and go to the banquet with me."
Lu curiously asked: "Why does the Shen family hold a banquet?"
Mrs. Jiang glanced at her: "Miss Shen's family is about to get married, and she will enter the gate of Ningyuanhou's Mansion in ten days. We will have a banquet before we get married."
Shen's family is thin, and Shen's mother has only one son and one daughter. Shen Yurong has not yet resumed his marriage, and Shen Ruyun is about to get married, which is about a major event for the Shen family.
Lu nodded and said: "Then A Li will have to dress up that day, now..." She smiled, but didn't say anything else, Jiang Li knew what she wanted to say. Now that I have reached the age to talk about marriage, not to mention the marriage, at least I have to start choosing people.
But this time is really not very good, after all, so many things have happened to the Jiang family. But for Jiang Li, it was precisely what she couldn't ask for. She doesn't want to marry, she just wants revenge. Trapped in the back house, how can I do what I want to do.
She is anxious not to marry.
But the old lady began to seriously consider Lu's words. Before being deceived by Ji Shuran, Jiang Li's marriage was delayed. Later, he was confused by Jiang Yu'e. Although it seems that the marriage of Ningyuan Hou's family is not very good, Zhou Yanbang is by no means a good match. But Jiang Li was wronged in the end.
It should be time for the young talents of the right age in Yanjing City to take a look. This time Shen's mansion is going to a banquet, and there should be a lot of them. Pondering.
But he didn't notice that the corner of Jiang Li's smiling mouth had already sunk unconsciously.
…
In the two days after leaving Shen's house for a banquet, the officials of the government still failed to find Jiang Youyao's whereabouts. Because Jiang Yuanbai greeted the people in the Yamen, he didn't release Jiang Youyao's name, and his reputation was preserved. At least for now, no one knows the fact that Jiang Youyao is missing except the people in the Yamen.
Jiang Yuanbai's expression became uglier day by day, Jiang Li knew that Jiang Yuanbai was actually worried, after all, it was his biological daughter. No matter how angry and disappointed, at such a juncture, I can't help but worry. But this will not change anything for Jiang Li.
On the day that she went to the Shen Mansion for a banquet, Mrs. Jiang asked Pearl to bring her jewelry early in the morning.
I made several new clothes at the end of the year, but I didn't have time to wear them, so I can wear them now. The jewellery sent by Mrs. Jiang was also very generous and dazzling. Tonger picked up the jewelry that matched the clothes and put it on Jiang Li, then combed Jiang Li's hair carefully, applying a little pink and daikon, everything was surprisingly well.
"The girl hasn't been to a banquet for a long time during this period, and it happened to take advantage of this opportunity to surprise others." Tonger seemed to never know how to write the word modest, and said proudly: "Compare all other ladies. Let them be shocked!"
Jiang Li smiled and didn't comment. She went to the Shen's house this time to find some more evidence. Although the evidence that can still be found is too slim, the Shen's family will definitely clean up all the traces after Xue Fangfei's death. . Shen Yurong came to be cautious and would not leave any handle.
But she still wanted to take a look.
After leaving the yard, Mrs. Jiang and her party were already here. Lu did not bring Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou, Jiang Jingyou was going to study, Jiang Jingrui was too skinny, Lu was afraid that he would poke Lou at the banquet. There are still some aristocratic ladies who are here today. It would be nice if something went wrong. Lu Shi also came to the banquet with the mood of choosing a daughter-in-law for himself. As for the third room, Mrs. Jiang also sent someone to ask. Yang said that he was in poor health recently, so he politely declined. Mrs. Jiang believed that she had done everything she could, and Yang didn't appreciate it, so she didn't have to persuade her.
In this way, only Mrs. Jiang, Lu Shi and Jiang Li went to the banquet.
Fortunately, Lu's relationship with Jiang Li is pretty good, and he talked with Jiang Li along the way, and the atmosphere was harmonious. It's just that Jiang Li is thinking about things in his heart, and it is inevitable that he is a little absent-minded. Lu Shi thought she hadn't rested well last night, so he asked her to rest on the carriage for a while, and then called her again.
Jiang Li leaned on the carriage and closed his eyes, but where he could fall asleep, his thoughts were chaotic, and his mind was full of all the things he had in the Shen family in the past. Now that she revisited her old place, the place that took her life, the place where she cheated her to hurt her and murdered her, and the place where the children she had had were buried, she still had to go again after all.
Before long, the carriage stopped, and Lu Shi shook Jiang Li: "Ali, here it is."
Jiang Li opened his eyes and jumped out of the carriage with Lu's.
The door of Shen's Mansion is still the same as in the past. The golden plaque with the words "Champion and No. 1" is still new, as if it has been quietly wiped every day, and there is no dust. The little servant in the concierge even has cooked ginger pear noodles, but the clothes he wears are much richer than before.
Jiang Li held the old lady Jiang's hand and handed the post to the concierge. The concierge stepped aside respectfully and greeted the people in. She didn't find the girl in front of him, who was the wife who had lived in the house for three years in the past.
Who can think of it? No one can think of it.
As soon as he entered the door, he was full of elegance, and Lu said: "It seems that Lord Shen is also a person of elegance. The mansion is full of literati charm."
The Jiang family was also a civil servant, and the literati always had a taste of sympathy for the literati. Jiang Li's eyes turned cold, and the Shen family looked elegant, knowledgeable and courteous, but the ambition of this modest gentleman was unknown to no one.
When I arrived in the yard, I found that many ladies and ladies had arrived. There were also some young masters, and the young masters from the official family came. Jiang Li saw the catkins. Liu Xu and Mrs. Liu also came to the banquet. When Liu Xu saw Jiang Li, he ran all the way excitedly and said, "I can see you!"
Speaking of which, Jiang Li has rarely seen catkins since he returned to Yanjing City from Tongxiang. She stopped going to Guangwentang, and Jiang's family had accidents one after another. Except for visiting Xue Huaiyuan at Ye's house every other time, she didn't move around either. Liu Xu took her hand and sat down beside Madam Liu. When Mrs. Jiang saw that she was talking to the little sister she knew well, she also followed her.
Liu Xu said: "Are you okay? How long have I not seen you? Two months or three months? Originally, I wanted to post to your house, but I heard that Jiang’s life is not peaceful, no I want to visit me rashly. I want to ask you to come out and find me, but I'm afraid that it will be inconvenient for you to go out. I didn't expect to see you here today."
Jiang Li smiled slightly: "A lot has happened recently, but it's all over."
Liuxu looked at Jiang Li, and saw that her expression was not fake, and she was not haggard and thin. Then she heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's good to be in the past. I am relieved to see you like this. Why is it that you are the only one here today? Can't you see Jiang Youyao?"
Outsiders still don’t know about Jiang Youyao’s disappearance. Jiang Li smiled and said, “She is in the house and has been banned.”
Liu Xu said: "Her temperament, she must be fine looking for trouble at the house again. It's better if she doesn't come. When she comes, I'm really afraid that she will trouble you."
"Thank you." Jiang Li also smiled and looked at the catkins, "have you been fine these days?"
The catkin said: "Nothing." At this point, there seemed to be something unspeakable, squeaky. Upon seeing this, Jiang Li asked softly: "But what's wrong?"
Liu Xu glanced at her and sighed helplessly, "My father said it's time to see people for me. I came to the banquet today, and my mother also came to see who is suitable. God knows I don't want to marry at all. What's so good?" She was talking, looking at Jiang Li, her eyes lit up, and said: "Speaking of which, you should have come to the banquet because of this, right? Your age is similar to mine, Jiang family should have long been. I'm seeing someone for you!"
"Maybe." Jiang Li smiled.
"Why don't you care about it at all," Catkin looked at her suspiciously, "neither shy nor scared, as if talking about other people's things."
"Me?" Jiang Li returned to his senses and smiled: "I am just like you. I didn't want to marry. But I don't have the final say on this kind of thing. Instead of worrying about it in vain, it's better to relax."
Catkins sighed when he heard the words, and said, "Whoever makes us give birth to women is much harder than men."
Jiang Li raised his eyes to look elsewhere. Those who came today also included Ji's family. Chen Ji's family was also there. After just saying hello to Mrs. Jiang, he sat at the other end far away. Because of Ji Shuran, the relationship between the Ji family and the Jiang family is also very embarrassing. It's hard to say.
In addition, Jiang Li also saw people from the right-hand Li's family. Li Xian and Li Lian also came, but think about it, since Shen Yurong voted for the king, the right minister has already colluded with the king. Shen Yurong and Youxiang are in the same group. Jiang Li noticed that among the young ladies present, many of them looked towards Brother Li Xian.
Li Xian and Li Lian are both born talents. Especially Li Xian, talented at a young age, and official. Although Li Lian looked like a dude, his good skin and status still moved many girls. These two brothers have not yet been married until now. They are regarded as the sweet pastry in the Yanjing noble women's circle. They just choose the marriage relationship, or the very enlightened family, depending on the children's own preferences. Either the more noble the status, the more you must pay attention to the right person. The Li family was chosen by others, and the Li family had to be eye-catching.
Mrs. Jiang also noticed this, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Li. Seeing that Jiang Li only talked to the catkins and did not look at the Li Xian brothers, she was relieved. The Li Xian brothers are good, but the Li family and the Jiang family are rivals. If Jiang Li also likes the Li family brothers, it must be impossible. Fortunately, Jiang Li didn't seem to favor these two.
The young ladies who come and go today are far away from Jiang Li. Although the crime of killing mothers and brothers is no longer there, Jiang's family has too many messy things recently, and everyone is willing to stay away from right and wrong, and are unwilling to get involved with Jiang's family. Jiang Li was also happy.
While talking with the catkins, catkins suddenly said: "Hey, I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to also come."
Jiang Li looked up, Xiao Deyin was wearing a large purple dress with fluttering robes and styles. She used to look gentle and elegant, and she is the same now. Among the young girls who are younger than her, instead of being compared, there is a kind of unique beauty.
Many of the ladies here are also female students of Mingyitang, and they immediately greeted Xiao Deyin eagerly. Xiao Deyin smiled, and when they walked to Jiang Li and Liuxu, Jiang Li and Liuxu also got up and saluted her.
Xiao Deyin seemed surprised that Jiang Li was here, and smiled: "I didn't expect you to come too. I haven't seen you in Mingyitang these days. I heard that you have suffered a cold wind, but it's okay?"
She didn't mention those things about Jiang's family at all, as if she had considered Jiang Li very thoroughly. Jiang Li also thanked Xiao Deyin for the question mark. After Xiao Deyin was gone, Liu Xu sighed, "Among Mingyitang's gentlemen, only Mr. Xiao is the most gentle."
Jiang Li smiled, noncommittal. She once thought that Xiao Deyin was the gentlest one, after all, to have such a moving piano sound, she must be a clever person. It's just that the truth is ugly, and the truth is chilling.
After sitting for a while, the host's house finally came out. Shen Mu and Shen Ruyun came out first, and Shen Yurong came out later. Shen's mother pulled Shen Ruyun to meet the ladies and ladies. Shen Ruyun was wearing a rose and purple peony pattern brocade dress and Feizi long skirt, which was very gorgeous. She has also carefully decorated her face today. I don't know if it is because she will soon be married to the Ningyuan Hou Mansion. She has got her wish, and she looks very charming.
After Shen Yurong came out, as soon as he came out, the eyes of many noble ladies clinging to the Li family brothers instantly turned to Shen Yurong. Such a young talent, the promising young Master Shen, even if it is only ?, that is what others are vying for. Besides, this master is still a passion, and his wife still persists in committing such ugly things. All women in the world hope that their husband is affectionate. Shen Yurong is like this, except that his family is a bit thinner, and he really can't find his shortcomings.
Mother Shen couldn't help showing a triumphant look on her face. She really likes the feeling that the stars are over the moon. Anyone who comes to the house today will have to look up at each other a few years ago. Now these people praised her children and pursued her, but they made her feel that all the sufferings in the past were worthwhile. Even if it's just for the vanity of this moment.
Jiang Li had a full view of Mother Shen's expression, and she had been a mother-in-law with this person for three years. She already knew what Shen mother was thinking. With a mocking smile in her heart, Shen Yurong was promoted and made a fortune. She became the mother of a superior person. The vanity and philanthropy in her bones were the same as before, and even more explicit than before.
Shen's family banquet is about to begin, and everyone is seated on the table. The maid brought up plates of exquisite dishes. After a long time no see, there were many more people in Shen's mansion, and even the taste of the food changed. Jiang Li thought blankly.
At that time, she married to the Shen family, and the Shen family had no family background, relying solely on Shen Yurong's writing abroad and Xue Fangfei's dowry. She calculated carefully, but the daily meals should not be too simple, even so, she was always disgusted by Shen Ruyun and Shen Mu, she could not live.
At the moment, the Shen family seems to have no shortage of silver. There are big fish and meat all at once, and a big banquet. I don't know how much of the silver in it was given by Princess Yongning.
As soon as Jiang Li thought about this, he heard from the servants of Shen Mansion to inform that Princess Yongning had arrived.
Everyone at the banquet was amazed, how could Princess Yongning suddenly come
Jiang Li's mouth twitched, and of course Princess Yongning would come. As long as there is a place for Shen Yurong, she will follow him without hesitation. It was all right before, but the enthusiasm for the Tongxiang case has not yet completely subsided, and the rumors of the people behind Feng Yutang have not been cleared. Princess Yongning should keep a distance from Shen's family. At this moment, I'm afraid Shen Yurong will not be very happy.
She calmly glanced at Shen Yurong on the other side of the seat.
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, Shen Yurong tilted his head to listen to what the colleagues around him said, and glanced at the entrance of the garden indifferently. In that glance, Jiang Li clearly saw anxiousness and unhappiness.
Sure enough, he and Princess Yongning had a disagreement.
Yong Ning was headstrong, and clung to Shen Yurong, and didn't want to separate for a moment. However, in Shen Yurong's heart, staying with Yongning is obviously not the first. At this time, with Shen Yurong's temperament, he would only try to avoid suspicion, and Yongning's so bluntly posted would only annoy Shen Yurong.
Jiang Li raised the tea cup in front of him, took a sip, smiled softly.
"Unexpectedly, the princess would come suddenly." Liu Xu sat next to Jiang Li and talked to Jiang Li secretly.
At this time, Princess Yongning also came in with the little servant who led the way.
Today, Mother Shen hosted a banquet for Shen Ruyun, but Princess Yongning wore more gorgeous than Shen Ruyun, a sapphire pearl flower tube top, a long skirt with birds and flowers, and her hair turned into gold silk and eight treasures to form a bun, which is very dazzling. She had ruddy lips and a charming smile, and said: "I passed by accidentally, and I heard of the excitement, only to know that there was a banquet inside. Come in and take a look, Mrs. Shen won't mind?"
"Where's the word?" Mother Shen smiled: "His Royal Highness is willing to come, and the house is full of glory."
Princess Yongning said petitely again: "Mrs. Shen is polite. You don't have to care about this palace, it's the same as before." She naturally sat beside Shen Ruyun.
Shen Ruyun seemed to have received a great honor, made his body straighter, and his head held high.
In Jiang Li's eyes, there was a disgusting nausea.
"The appearance of the Shen family is almost the same as catching up," Willow said in a low voice: "Master Shen looks like a noble person, how come this family..."
"Knowing people, knowing the face and not knowing the heart." Jiang Li only said a word. After all, she knew the most about whether Shen Yurong was really innocent or not.
Princess Yongning glanced at Shen Yurong casually. Shen Yurong didn't notice her. A trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes, and then disappeared quickly, and she talked with the ladies on the table with a confident smile.
There are many people who favor Princess Yongning. Mrs. Jiang and Lu Shi sat still, and didn't even take the initiative to greet Princess Yongning. Princess Yongning is Wang Cheng's younger sister, Cheng Wang and Youxiang collude, and Youxiang and Jiang's family are rivals, so naturally there is nothing to say.
This banquet seemed to be a joy for both the host and the guest. The wives were busy chatting eagerly, looking at each other, and flattering. After eating, watch the snow in the courtyard house.
Although it never snowed today, Shen Mansion Fengya specially repaired the snow pavilion. The long corridor pavilion is also a side view. The catkins were a little lacking in interest. The other young ladies followed Shen Ruyun around in the yard, but the catkins didn't like to join in the excitement. They dragged the ginger pear, and the two wandered alone in the garden.
After strolling for a while, the catkins were going to the clean room, Jiang Li was waiting for her outside, and walking around at will. When she was walking, she suddenly saw an open room with a piano on the table.
This guqin is very precious at first glance, but it should be used by women. It is very thin and thin, with flowers and birds carved under the surface of the piano. When she was Xue Fangfei, she originally brought a piano, which was given to her by Xue Zhao, but it was burnt down with her death. Shen Yurong would never use this kind of piano from his daughter's family. The first time he saw this piano, Jiang Li knew that it was a gift from Princess Yongning.
Princess Yongning can also play the piano. Although her piano skills may not be exquisite, there are no shortage of people in the world who follow her and applaud her. Jiang Li walked into the room, walked to this square piano, and stretched out his hand to stroke the surface of the piano. The precious piano probably didn't feel rough to the touch, but was completely different and delicate. She could think that perhaps in the past, Shen Yurong was sitting here, watching Princess Yongning play the piano, maybe he should be, maybe just smiling and watching. Thinking about it, Jiang Li felt nauseous.
She sat down.
Without burning incense, or bathing hands, she tried it, and immediately flicked it.
She played "Close to the Moon".
The sound of the piano was long and swaying, and gradually spread far away. The Shen Mansion was not as big as the Guogong Mansion. Naturally, the sound of the piano would not disappear in the middle, and gradually spread to the gallery.
At first no one noticed, thinking which luthier was playing. Gradually, everyone who listened to it was also attracted attention, and someone said: "Which luthier is this, who can play the piano music like "Shut Down the Moon" so well, this... who is playing this?"
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xiao, don't you know how to play the piano? The sound of the piano is already excellent, right?" someone asked.
Unexpectedly, someone asked Xiao Deyin. Xiao Deyin was in a daze. He didn't recover for a while. Someone around him gently pulled her sleeve, "Mr. Xiao, what's the matter with you?"
Only then did Xiao Deyin regained her senses, smiled reluctantly, and replied, "Well, it was a very good conversation." No one noticed that there was sweat in her palm at the moment.
Others could only hear the sound of the piano, but not the heart of the piano, but she clearly felt that the person playing the piano was so familiar, as if it was that person, that person who shouldn't exist... Xue Fangfei
How is this possible!
Xue Fangfei is dead, and the person who plays the piano must be someone who has the same sound as Xue Fangfei. She made a mistake. Xiao Deyin thought about it this way, and couldn't wait to ask Shen mother, "Dare to ask Madam, who played the piano sound at the mansion, can you please give me a comment?"
Mother Shen was also confused, and said, "A piano master? Our house has never hired a piano master."
"I have never hired a luthier, who is the one who plays the piano?" Everyone was surprised, "Who is the lady among the visitors?"
Shen Ruyun happened to be there. She thought for a while, and said, "There is only one piano in the mansion. It belongs to the elder brother. It is in the tea room of Xiyuan. If someone plays the piano in our mansion, they can only play that one. Send someone to see and you will know who it is. You don't have to worry, I will tell someone to see who is who plays the piano, and then invite him over." After that, he ordered the maid to go.
"Close to the Moon" still doesn't stop. The more it hits the agitation, the more it tastes. Someone couldn't help but say: "This piano sound is indistinguishable from Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Deyin felt annoyed when he heard the words. Once upon a time, the entire Yanjing city regarded her as the first piano master, especially after Fairy Jinghong got married, she had no rivals anymore. But in just half a year, first Jiang Li, then the inexplicable person, she, the first luthier, seems like everyone can do it.
