Chapter 47

It was night, and the hairpin festival on Suzaku Long Street was more lively than in previous years, but this kind of excitement couldn't spread into the quiet Jinghe Hall.

When the clapper rang in Xushi, lights were lit on the corridor of Jinghe Hall one after another, illuminating the courtyard.

The moon was scarce, so Madam Xuan ordered the envoys to carry the tables and chairs and put them on the porch, waiting for the girls to come out to enjoy the moon after finishing the cakes with Mrs. Shen.

In the main room, Mrs. Shen picked up the silk cloth on the table and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said: "The second elder brother of the Wang family sent a post today, and wants to invite you to the hairpin flower viewing party, so don't be busy in front of me. Pack up and make an appointment."

Hearing this, Jiang Lanshu said blissfully, "It's the old lady, I'm going to change clothes now."

After all, he turned and left the house.

If it were normal, Jiang Lanshu would definitely not nod so quickly, she would have to push and pull a few times before agreeing to answer, this time the answer was so straightforward that old lady Shen couldn't help but froze.

In the dim moonlight, Qingju held a bright lamp to illuminate the road ahead, who would have thought that the two had just left the courtyard gate of Jinghe Hall when they ran into Shen Pan'er and her little envoy.

Shen Pan'er looked worried, and before Jiang Lanshu could see the ceremony, she passed her to Jinghetang.

Qing Ju looked back at the master and servant who had disappeared into the night, and spat: "Third Miss is too ignorant of etiquette, Mrs. Zhao just indulged her too much, and she is becoming more and more arrogant now, girl, don't be as knowledgeable as her."

"What good knowledge do I have with her," Jiang Lanshu sighed, "The little girl's temperament can't be ranked in the elegant hall, the only blame is my bad background. If I can be a decent lady of the Rong family, I don't need to look at this Everyone's faces turned pale."

"Miss, why are you sighing, the Rong family brother likes you, the girl's mother's family used to be a rich family for generations, besides, there is old lady Shen behind you, the position of the eldest lady of the Rong family will be yours sooner or later. "

Jiang Lanshu frowned: "Yes, as long as Brother Rong likes me, that's more important than anything else."

After that, she said with a shy smile: "Let's go, don't make Brother Rong wait."

"Yes." Qingju carried the lantern and continued to walk forward.

In Jinghetang, Mrs. Shen finished her cakes and went out to bask in the moonlight. Just as she sat down and was about to close her eyes and rest her mind, Shen Paner came.

"Grandmother, you are so excited to watch the moon today!" Shen Pan'er walked forward with a smile on her face.

Old lady Shen raised her eyelids and stared at the little man below, and said: "You are also in a good mood today, it's rare that you come to Jinghetang at night. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Shen Pan'er naughtily leaned on Old Mrs. Shen's lap, rubbed it coquettishly and said, "Grandmother, my granddaughter wants to go to the hairpin flower viewing party, but there is no one to accompany your granddaughter, so my granddaughter just wants to borrow Lingwu from you." younger sister."

The old lady Shen smiled, nodded Shen Pan'er's nose, and said: "You are a ghost, go, just take your sister Lingwu to have a good time in the capital, she has been in the capital for half a year and hasn't visited many Well, it’s just that you have to come back before the curfew, don’t play around.”

"Don't worry, grandma, before the curfew, my granddaughter will bring you sister Lingwu back!" Shen Pan'er laughed and pulled Ye Lingwu to run out of the courtyard, without stopping all the way, Ye Lingwu could hardly keep up with her pace.

When they arrived outside the mansion, Jiang Lanshu's carriage had just left.

And Shen Pan'er was also well prepared, half an hour ago, she asked Yingxia to call a carriage to stop on the side of the street.

Hairpin Flower Club is also known as Xiao Qiqiao, and the pedestrians on the street are mostly young talents and fair ladies. The folk customs of the dynasty are not very strict, and it is common for men and women to go shopping hand in hand.

In the carriage, Shen Pan'er would open the curtain to look at Jiang Lanshu's carriage in front of her after a while, the seat cushion seemed to be pricked by needles, her expression was ugly and impatient.

Ye Lingwu asked suspiciously, "Third Miss, what are you looking at? Ever since I got on the carriage, I have seen something wrong with you."

Shen Pan'er lowered the curtain and said angrily, "Who else can I look at? Of course I'm looking at Jiang Lanshu. She must have a private meeting with Rong Yu tonight. I have to catch them and ask them face to face."

"……what?"

Shen Pan'er paused, and replied: "Don't worry about it, anyway, I want Rong Yu to have nothing to say!"

Ye Lingwu said helplessly: "But Sister Lan Shu came out tonight to make an appointment with the second elder brother of the Wang family. Not to mention this, Sister Lan Shu and Mr. Rong are unmarried men and women are unmarried. Why does the third girl question their private meeting?" ?
Shen Pan'er pursed her lips, and lost her momentum: "Then...then Jiang Lanshu already has the second brother of the Wang family, she is in two boats!"

Ye Lingwu choked, and reminded in a low voice: "The Wang family hasn't hired yet."

Shen Pan'er turned a deaf ear and said to herself: "I don't believe that Jiang Lanshu went to the appointment of the second elder brother of the Wang family. At the banquet that day, the second elder brother of the Wang family showed her kindness, but Jiang Lanshu ignored her and just cared about that fool Rong Yu. flirt."

Ye Lingwu was silent.

She is not blind, so she can see it naturally.

It's just that the Wang family hasn't come to propose marriage yet. If Jiang Lanshu and Rong Yu are in love and the Rong family is willing to come to propose marriage, it seems reasonable.

There were many colorful flowers hanging on Suzaku Long Street. Ye Lingwu got out of the carriage, and a breeze blew by, and the pleasant fragrance of flowers wafted to her nostrils.

Before she had time to appreciate it, Shen Pan'er lifted the hem of her skirt, dragged Ye Lingwu to catch up with Jiang Lanshu sneakily in front of her, and followed far behind unhurriedly.

Walking and walking, the two came to a restaurant.

The gate of the restaurant is like a market, and the golden plaque is inlaid with five extremely ostentatious characters - the first floor of the capital.

Shen Pan'er kept on stepping, and was about to step into the door, but before she could go in, four big men came out carrying a man in plain clothes, and threw it directly outside the door.

Shen Pan'er and Ye Lingwu shook their shoulders in shock.

A middle-aged man walked up behind several strong men. He folded his hands on his chest and said viciously: "You dare to drink without money, who the hell gave you such a big face!"

After yelling, he saw two well-dressed little girls standing beside him, rolling their eyes and holding hypocritical smiles: "Are the two girls here to drink?"

Even the brave Shen Pan'er felt guilty at the moment.

She had heard about this restaurant from Shen Chongwen a long time ago, because the owner of the restaurant had a son named Pei Huai, who was Shen Ci and Rong Yu's "friends".

Every time Shen Ci was caught with him, Shen Chongwen would hate iron for being weak and lose his temper.

She also heard that although Pei Huai is young, he is very proficient in the twists and turns of business. There are many strong and dignified officials in the capital, and he can be regarded as a rising star among the merchants in the capital.

But I heard that Shen Pan'er has never met Pei Huai face to face, but if he can become "friends" with Shen Ci, it is estimated that his character... definitely has some problems!
This restaurant is full of drunkenness, and Ye Lingwu wanted to "escape" immediately, but when she was about to make a move, Shen Pan'er firmly held her arm, and she heard her say to the middle-aged man: "Yes, we Just here for a drink."

"Miss San," Ye Lingwu said in a low voice, "This place is not suitable for us, we should leave quickly. If Second Aunt knows that we come to this kind of place, we will be scolded."

Shen Pan'er was already pissed off: "What are you afraid of, I will take care of the accident, let's go! Let's go in and have a look."

Ye Lingwu shrugged and shook her head: "I won't go."

"go with!"

"Don't go."

Shen Pan'er pursed her mouth: "Are you still a good sister? I treat you well on weekdays. I think of you first when I do good things. Why don't you accompany me?"

"..." Not necessarily.
