Chapter 61
The lively performance on the stage, the spectators below are holding tea bowls and melon seeds, feeling very comfortable.

Ye Lingwu took a seat in the corner of the women's seat, and after a while, Shen Ci also entered the yard. Unlike her, Shen Ci attracted the attention of many girls and young men as soon as he came.

"Look quickly," the girl in the pink flower trousers pulled the other girl, her eyes fixed on the direction where the young man gathered, "That is the second son of the Shen family, how handsome he is."

Ye Lingwu followed quietly and raised her eyes.

The group of young men chatted and laughed around Shen Ci, but he always had a lazy and casual appearance, and occasionally made a few words, which caused several people to laugh loudly,

Ye Lingwu was slightly lost in thought.

The young man was scorching hot, like a sun.

And she...

In the evening, Ye Lingwu, who had been busy all day, brought a bowl of freshly made bird's nest porridge from the kitchen to Mrs. Shen's bedroom. Just as she stepped on the steps of the promenade in Mrs. Shen's yard, a pair of boots suddenly stopped in front of her.

In the dark, Ye Lingwu was so frightened that she almost dropped the bird's nest porridge in her hand, holding it tightly in panic, when she heard a chuckle from above her head, Ye Lingwu looked up.

——Sure enough, Shen Ci is everywhere.

The height gap between the two is huge, now one is standing on the steps and the other is standing under the steps, Ye Lingwu can't even reach Shen Ci's shoulders, the white radish meets the carrot.

Seeing Ye Lingwu looking at her with resentment, Shen Ci rubbed the top of her head condescendingly, and said, "Scared you? I'm going to grandma's house too, let's go together?"

Ye Lingwu hurriedly shook her head away, took a step back, opened the distance and said: "Second Young Master talks as soon as he talks, why do you still do it?" Ye Lingwu didn't forget to look around, and was relieved when he saw that no one was there. .

Shen Ci leaned on the pillar carelessly, and said with the corner of his mouth hooked: "I said Ye Lingwu, if you really think that I am a son or a prodigal, then there is no need to avoid me like a snake and a scorpion."

Ye Ling choked and said: "I don't, obviously you always like to tease me every time you see me."

Shen Ci frowned and said, "When did I tease you?"

"It was just now!" Ye Lingwu gave him a gouging look.

Shen Ci was stunned: "Is that also called teasing?"

Ye Lingwu said seriously: "Why didn't you call?"

Well, in this girl's eyes, everything he does is wrong.

Shen Ci was helpless, bowed slightly, and cupped his hands pretendingly: "Okay, then when I see you from now on, I'll salute first and then talk, how about it?"

"..."

"I still want to send the bird's nest porridge to the old lady. If the second son is not in a hurry, I will go first." Ye Lingwu walked around Shen Ci with her legs on her legs and went to the old lady's yard.

The candlelight in the room is bright, and there is a small white jade incense burner on the table, with green smoke like clouds on the burner, and a silver tray with chiseled flower patterns on it, and some fresh fruits are offered on it.

Old Mrs. Shen was sitting beside her, with an open Buddhist scriptures in front of her, twisting a string of commonly used Buddhist beads in her hands, slightly closing her eyes, but not chanting, as if she was thinking about something.

Ye Lingwu was about to go in lightly, when a gust of wind suddenly blew from the side, she saw Shen Ci first stepping into the room, and sat down on the grand teacher's chair at the bottom of the old lady Shen, and finally she still didn't forget to tilt her head upright. Erlang legs.

Ye Lingwu paused for a moment, speechless, and then stepped forward and said: "Old lady, this is the bird's nest porridge I just made. You drank wine at the table, eat some bird's nest to nourish your stomach, or you won't be able to sleep well at night." gone."

After finishing speaking, Ye Lingwu opened the lid of the bowl containing the bird's nest porridge and brought it to Mrs. Shen.Old Mrs. Shen slowly opened her eyes, took the bowl and nodded, "Young girl has a heart, and it will be hard for you little girl to take care of you after she comes out of the Hou's mansion."

Ye Lingwu pursed her lips and smiled, this docile look fell on Shen Ci's eyes, and her heart was inexplicably uncomfortable.

Why hasn't this damn girl been so shy to him before?

Old Mrs. Shen told Ye Lingwu a few more words before letting her go back to her room to rest.

After waiting for the people to leave, Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Cichao with a gloomy face beside her: "Why, why did girl Ling provoke you? Look at you."

Shen Ci didn't answer, and asked: "Is there something wrong with grandma looking for me?"

"Someone sent me a secret letter yesterday, you can read it first." Mrs. Shen pointedly glanced at the envelope on the table.

Shen Ci stepped forward, took the envelope, opened it, and looked at it. After a while, he frowned, and said, "This letter is not signed. It is only said that this trip is to investigate Sun Kungan. Without an official position, what is the use of the person who wrote the letter telling you these things?"

Mrs. Shen twirled the beads and said slowly: "Sun Kun has been in office for nearly ten years, and it is not so easy to find out. Although my old lady has no official position, it is easy to ask someone to do something."

Shen Ci pondered for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth: "It seems that the person who wrote the letter wanted to use you."

Old Mrs. Shen cast a sidelong glance at him, picked up the jujube and barley soup on the table and drank it.Shen Ci saw old lady Shen's noncommittal attitude, and immediately confirmed his guess.

But think about the fact that the imperial court dared to use Mrs. Shen——Shen Ci said in a humble voice: "Grandmother, elder brother is also here to commit crimes?"

The old lady Shen said calmly: "This matter must be kept secret, and it must not be revealed. Tomorrow, you will go to Zhizhou Mansion and ask Mr. Sun to accompany us to Jiaoju Town to worship our ancestors."

Shen Ci frowned and said, "Grandmother is trying to drag him?"

Old Mrs. Shen said: "Since your elder brother wants me to divert Mr. Sun's attention, let's let him accompany him well. Once he leaves, half of the sky will be lost in Zhizhou Mansion. It's easy to investigate."

Shen Ci raised his eyebrows, and said with a sneer: "If the Sun family really has problems, then the Wang family can't get rid of the responsibility. It's hard for one person to achieve the Tao, and the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. This time, the Sun family has to be dragged into the ditch again."

Old Mrs. Shen chuckled, and said: "You are really smart. The Sun family made a lot of ideas, but it's a pity that the eldest son of the second householder of the Wang family is sensible. Last time, he greeted us at the city gate and arranged maids for us to clean the house. When the ancestor worship comes back, you should also thank him, aren't you used to making friends, I see you do well in this matter."

"..."

"I don't know if what grandma said is a compliment or a derogation, but as long as you don't scold me..." Shen Ci grinned, "Then I will take you as a compliment. Grandson, I will definitely fulfill my mission."

After all, turn around and leave.

Old Mrs. Shen waited for the people to leave before she smiled and said, "Popi."
