For the first time, Shao Yifeng deeply realized how fast women can turn their faces.
If it was said that before, his good stepmother wanted to gain a foothold in the family, so she treated him with all kinds of gentle gestures, then after he almost crossed the line, she completely changed her face.
The daily afternoon snacks are gone, the attention during meals is gone, and the care in the soft voice is gone. Whenever she meets him at home, she looks at him like a cloud of air, rubs her shoulders and walks away. Make him both angry and funny.
This kind of performance made her look like a girl in her youth. The image of the scheming stepmother he had previously identified disappeared, and she couldn't recall it for a while.
Wen Ying is indeed making use of the problem. For some reason, every time she met Shao Yifeng, she felt a little dangerous. Maybe it's because his attitude is always so freewheeling, and anyone who does whatever he wants is very dangerous.
But she couldn't avoid him forever, so when she needed to go out, she found Shao Yifeng, hoping that he would accompany her to the department store.
Among other things, the little wolf dog dismantled all her things, some were packed, some were broken, and she urgently needed to replenish them.
This era is different from the ancient times. She does not need to be accompanied when she travels, but she has a special status, and she must do security work when she goes out. Shao Getian is so weak that he didn't leave her with manpower in this area. Just ask Shao Yifeng.
Young Master Shao may be bored during the holidays, or because he has a desire to make up for it, so he quickly agreed to her request.
"To Dah Sing Department Store?" He stepped up with long legs and sat next to her in the back row.
She nodded quietly, then turned to look at the scenery on both sides. It was still cold, and there was a layer of white mist on the glass of the car, and the trees on both sides of the road could be seen vaguely.
He had just gotten into the car, and the coat was also chilly. She crossed her arms and touched them, then moved to the side.
Shao Yifeng didn't know it, he just pretended that she was still thinking about the previous matter, put his hands on both sides, and said with a gruff smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely stay away from you."
She glanced across, "Where's your honorific name?"
"...I stay away from you, okay?"
The driver glanced at the two of them in the rearview mirror, muttering that his wife had a long history of family education, and there were so many rules that she had to worry about even this, and for a while ignored the sudden conversation between his elder and young master.
Department stores in this era are no worse than later generations, and even more expensive and lively. Illuminated by colorful neon lights, the windows are filled with imported foreign gadgets. Receive visitors.
Wen Ying stopped at the clothing store, and Shao Yifeng happened to meet some classmates in the school, so he left a few people for her and went to say hello to them.
Wen Ying's dress and temperament are out of tune with her surroundings, like a lady from a family who has strayed into the flashy circle. She took small steps, her skirt remained motionless, and she turned her face slightly when looking at the items, with a calm and beautiful temperament.
This way, people will be watching.
To say that no matter what era there are bastards, the one who molested her was like a wealthy young master. It turned out that there was an innocent female classmate by his side. When she saw her, she couldn't move her legs. With a wave: "Wrap up everything this lady likes."
Immediately afterwards, he went in front of Wen Ying to show his courtesy: "Miss, what's your surname?"
Wen Ying took three steps and he also took three steps, and Wen Ying took a step back and he took one step, with a courteous face but a compelling posture.
Before the guards left by Shao Yifeng came up to chase them away, the female customer who had just walked into the store let out a chuckle: "The 'Miss' you mentioned has a woman's hair bun, you should call her Mrs. "
Wen Ying turned her head to look at her, a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Mi Xi? !
In the winter, she was wearing a bright begonia red cheongsam, with slits on both sides revealing a pair of long legs, wrapped in stockings, graceful and sexy. If it weren't for the fur shawls on the shoulders, it would be doubtful that he had come to the world of flowers in spring.
She was half a head taller than Wen Ying, and when she stood beside Wen Ying, she looked like a full protector, smiling charmingly and jokingly asking, "Is that right, this lady?"
The dandy young master's expression became funny, "Madam?" He glanced at Wen Ying, then glanced at Mi Xi suspiciously.
Wen Ying nodded.
The other party is skeptical.
It was Wen Ying's guards who really drove him away, but Wen Ying still thanked Mi Xi.
Mi Xi took out a lady's cigarette from her handbag and lit it, held it between her fingertips, and approached her alluring red lips, "You don't need to thank me." She took a puff of cigarette, and then gently exhaled a puff of white smoke, as if He called her with a smile that wasn't a smile: "Mrs. Shao."
Wen Ying pretended not to know: "Are you?"
"Mi Xi."
"Miss Mi, I don't know how Miss Mi knows my identity?"
"I saw Mrs. Shao with the young marshal, so I knew it well." Mi Xi's eyes were meaningful, "I believe Mrs. Shao knows who I am in her heart, and you are a smart person."
Wen Ying didn't know what she meant, so she responded, "I heard a little bit."
The other party smiled, "I just heard about it? I heard a lot of things from Ge Tian. In the past, I only heard him talking about you being rigid and boring. Recently, he changed the way of speaking, whether it was raising the second son in the family or dealing with his mother's affairs. , you are all credited. That's how interesting it is."
"What does Miss Mi mean?"
"You can just call me Xixi." She approached Wenying, pressing down with the shadow, "Or you can call me Qiangwei, what do you think, little cherry blossom? We are from the same country."
Wen Ying felt as if her heart was being squeezed hard by someone, and suddenly jumped up violently.
Roses and cherry blossoms are the representative patterns of the two camps on the light source map.
But how come...
She has experienced two worlds without incident, how could she be seen through at a glance in this world
Or, the other party is just probing,
She opened her mouth, but before she could utter the words, she was taken by another figure. Shao Yifeng came back at some point.
"Isn't this the little lover my father kept by my side recently?" He smiled cynically, confirming Wen Ying's condition, and stared at Mi Xi sharply, "Why did you run in front of my mother and get in the way?"
Wen Ying pulled him back, shook her head and said, "Miss Mi just helped me out, and she didn't mean to target me."
Shao Yifeng saw that he could speak clearly, and she wanted to speak for her rival in love, so he couldn't help but feel that iron could not be made into steel.
Mi Xi took a step back to show her innocence, and glanced at Wen Ying and him again, with an ambiguous smile, "The eldest son treats his stepmother so filially and intimately, it really makes people envy Mrs. Shao."
Shao Yifeng only thought that she was whimsical and wanted to enter the room and take Wen Ying's place. Only Wen Ying understood what she meant.
If the other party has great insight, knows her identity clearly, and even knows that there is a competitive relationship between the two of them, then she will naturally be able to detect the thoughts she has spent on Shao Yifeng and the delicate atmosphere between the two of them. .
She pondered for a while, and said unexpectedly: "Miss Mi and I hit it off right away, I wonder if I can invite you to the mansion for a talk?"
Shao Yifeng: "..."
He has never seen that noble lady who dared to invite her little lover to her home. No matter how polite she is, there must be a limit? !
Mi Xi was also surprised, her previous rash attitude was slightly restrained, she looked at her unconsciously, flicked the cigarette ash and said with a smile: "Then I will not be polite."
As soon as the two returned to the mansion, they saw Yingcao running down, and they breathed a sigh of relief, as if something had happened.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"The wife is back, the second young master can't find you, there is a lot of trouble!"
"What about asking him to practice calligraphy?"
"I wrote more than a page and a half of paper. I followed your instructions and watched him practice calligraphy. At first, he was fine, but he was distracted and kept watching the door. Later, I thought I hadn't seen you all the time, so I was so unsure. Destroy the study!"
"I gonna go see."
After saying that, she hurried to the study room, and the eldest son of the Shao family who was still talking to her before was completely left aside.
Shao Yifeng brushed off the cold air from his coat, raised his eyebrows, and followed her.
Wen Ying smelled the smell of ink before entering the door. When she went in, she saw that the stool was overturned, the ink bottle was overturned on the table, the ink was poured out, and there were torn paper pages on the ground. Yingcao has exaggerated so many times, but this time she is not exaggerating, she even said it implicitly.
How could this almost blow up the study? This is simply to have been lifted!
As soon as Shao Tingyu smelled her breath, his eyes lit up instantly, and he was about to rush over immediately, but she was reprimanded severely by her cold eyes: "Stand up!"
After such a long period of teaching, he can probably understand what she said, and this time he doesn't even need to understand, just seeing her completely different expression and the strong emotions emanating from her body, the keen little wolf dog has already stopped feet.
He stood one meter away from her at a loss, and habitually let out a "woo" from his throat, showing a nervous look.
Wen Ying reflected on herself. From the day she came here, she almost never let the little wolf dog too far away from her. First, it was convenient for her to raise her, and second, she was worried because of his dependence. She never considered that this would cause the current situation. situation.
But he can't get tired of being by her side forever. If he starts to feel restless once he leaves the environment where he feels safe, then his future will not even be as good as the original track, and her appearance will actually harm him!
Thinking of this, her hesitant eyes became a little firmer.
When Shao Yifeng arrived, he saw her whipping the puppy vigorously with a feather duster.
He had heard about her whipping a puppy, and once thought that the reason she made was just an excuse, how could someone go to discipline a concubine at the expense of fame
She may be the mother who hates the other party, or she may be venting on him when she is angry. In short, she has no good intentions, but she just found a good-sounding name afterwards.
And now...
Shao Yifeng leaned against the door, quietly watching the scene in front of him, and suddenly remembered many past events.
Probably when he was very young, his biological mother also beat him so severely. He had long forgotten what the cause was. Anyway, he was mischievous in the countryside, and it was a good meal to be caught.
At the age of seven or eight, she is the same as his "brother", except that her biological mother is far less gentle and beautiful than her, but the most simple woman in the country. None can compare.
He couldn't help but envy the puppy, he was in so much pain that he couldn't even walk, and his back was so hot that it looked like he had been smeared with pepper water.
Looking at him again, he only looked blank and wronged, obviously not in great pain, and couldn't understand what she meant. Instead, she was the one who started to cry, and she started crying.
Shao Yifeng thought it was funny, but he didn't realize how gentle he was looking at the stepmother at this moment.
Time goes by, and in the blink of an eye three years have passed, Shao Yifeng has graduated from the military academy, worked with Shao Getian, and tried his hand at a small test. He won a battle in the process of other warlords grabbing territory and exchanging fire. A lot more stable, less frivolous than when he was young, but his willful personality is still the same. Shao Tingyu finally has a big name, only Wen Ying can call him Xiaohu.
Now he is no different from a normal person, and if he studies in front of Wen Ying, he will lack communication skills and understanding of the world, so Wen Ying and Shao Getian mentioned that they want him to go directly to the army for training.
She said: "Xiaohu has no patience for textbook knowledge, so it is better to practice it in actual combat."
Shao Getian was very happy. He patted his thigh and said that this son was exactly the same as him, not only in appearance, but also in appearance and personality, and the problem of not liking reading. They were exactly the same!
It's nothing to be young, he dared to secretly learn martial arts from a teacher when he was still in his teens? Just find a capable person in the army to take him.
Shao Yifeng only raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and didn't express anything else, but went back to the Marshal's Mansion after picking a day.
He has his own house elsewhere, so naturally there will be less when he comes back. Because he arrived at the mansion early in the morning when the sky was just dawn, and most of the servants were still asleep, he suddenly felt hungry, so he went straight to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, someone was already busy there, with a slender figure cutting vegetables on the chopping board.
When he saw it, his footsteps slowed down. After watching for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Today is his birthday?"
Wen Ying raised her head and saw the person coming, her eyes widened, "Yifeng is back too? I didn't expect you to remember, yes, today is Xiaohu's birthday."
"Every time he celebrates his birthday, you have to go to the kitchen to cook for him. I will naturally remember." He said.
She smiled and looked at the sky outside the window, "It's so early, have you eaten yet?"
"No."
"Then let me make you something to eat first." She said a little embarrassedly, "I didn't allow the servants to help, so I kicked them out. Is it okay to cook noodles?"
He unconsciously lowered his voice, "Okay."
He stood by and watched her busy. After all these years, she is still the same as when she first came in, she loves to wear old-fashioned dresses. It's fine in other places. When he was spinning around in the kitchen, he always wondered if his sleeves would fall into the pot, or stir up the fire in the stove.
Unexpectedly, a good spirit doesn't work and a bad spirit, just as he was able to figure it out, he saw that Sakura's sleeve was flicked from the side of the pot, and she was really touched by Mars!
