I became an exiled convict after we got married

Chapter 37

Cats and dogs are really natural enemies.

Shen Xingyu's big orange cat's fur was blown up by Xiaodiandian's fright, and Wan Jinlan took Diandian out. The big orange cat was still furry on the wooden shelf, with a pair of amber-like pupils staring at the door.

Shen Xingyu finally comforted the orange cat and hugged it down, and hurriedly asked the maid to take the cat back, while she followed Wan Jinlan to her yard. She has also coveted this dog for a long time, and she has long wanted to touch it. Touch its fur.

It was the first time Wan Qiuyu left the courtyard for so many days in the Shen residence.

She has always eaten alone in the room, and she did not step out of the courtyard door last year.

Arriving at the courtyard where Wan Jinlan and Shen Qing lived, seeing the well-furnished rooms everywhere, Wan Qiuyu lowered his eyelashes.

At this time, Shen Qing was talking with her mother, Mrs. Shen, and was not in the room.

The maid brought three piping hot bowls of almond cheese.

Wan Jinlan likes to drink this kind of milky food, and she doesn't forget to greet Wan Qiuyu.

Wan Qiuyu felt awkward, and still couldn't face Wan Jinlan's 20-something-years younger face.

Before she died, she had completely torn skin with the queen mother, otherwise the queen mother would not have given her death.

"Why did King Qi suddenly ask someone to send Diandian over?"

Shen Xingyu originally wanted to talk about the relationship between King Qi and Wan Jinlan, but remembered that Wan Qiuyu was still there, so she stopped talking.

Diandian was tugging at the hem of Shen Xingyu's clothes, making a "woo-woo" sound.

"Why does it keep biting my clothes?" Shen Xingyu couldn't even get rid of the dog.

Wan Jinlan smiled and said, "I guess it's because you smell too much of a cat."

Wan Qiuyu asked after using the cheese: "Third sister, when are you going to go home? I miss my aunt, and I also want to see my relatives."

Wan Jinlan suddenly heard someone calling her "Third Sister", but she didn't realize that it was her.

"Are you older than me?"

Wan Qiuyu lowered her head and said: "It seems that the third sister doesn't remember it. I am a few months older than you. I remember being called the second girl at home when I was young."

Wan Jinlan sighed, "You have a really good memory."

Wan Qiuyu felt guilty, lowered her eyes and said nothing more.

"The temperature is not suitable for more than a month, so we should not start the journey, and we have to wait."

Wan Qiuyu felt disappointed, "The house should be almost cleaned up, so I'll go back first."

Wan Jinlan asked a little girl in the courtyard to take her back.

On the way, Wan Qiuyu said to the little girl: "That dog of your girl is so beautiful, I have never seen such a dog before."

The little girl proudly said: "This dog is from the North, and was given to King Qi by King Guangling. His Highness King Qi ordered someone to send it here this morning for our girl to take care of it for a while. The slave girl also likes it very much seeing how chubby it is. .”

Wan Qiuyu didn't ignore how strange Shen Xingyu looked at Wan Jinlan when he mentioned King Qi earlier.

"You girls, are you familiar with King Qi?" Wan Qiuyu asked tentatively.

Immediately, she got a supercilious look from the little girl.

In the eyes of the little girl, Wan Qiuyu is just a guest, and the question she asked just now is too inquisitive, doesn't it seem appropriate?

Wan Qiuyu didn't expect that a small servant girl would dare to show her face.

Damn it, when she becomes a nobleman, she has to get rid of all these dogs who look down on people.

Speaking of King Qi, Wan Qiuyu took a lot of effort to pull out this person from the memory of his previous life. The main reason is that King Qi died too early.

She didn't even know when he died so early.She had never seen King Qi at all, and only heard that the old maid in the palace missed King Qi's appearance.

If the relationship between King Qi and Wan Jinlan is not clear now, then there will be no relationship with King Duan anymore?
No, Wan Qiuyu paused, maybe King Qi was very close to his death in his previous life, and he wondered if Wan Jinlan could be a widow in time.

She asked the girl who served in her yard, and she was glad that Wan Jinlan had no engagement yet.I don't know if the letter she sent had any effect.

The little girl gave Wan Qiuyu a strange look, wondering why she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

After the little girl returned to the courtyard, Wan Jinlan also asked her if Wan Qiuyu was unusual.

The little girl naturally had something to say.

Wan Jinlan thought Wan Qiuyu was strange, but she still remembered the letter from somewhere.She has only met Wan Qiuyu twice, but she always feels that she is very weird.

She is obviously a girl about her age, but she has a dull smell on her body. Moreover, when she looks at her, her expression is complicated. Although the disgust inside is well hidden, she can feel it.

Half a month passed in a flash, and it was the day of Shangyuan Festival.

Tonight, there is a lantern market in Yangzhou City. Shen Xingyu said that at this time of year, Yanbo Lake is very lively.

Shen Qing planned to return to the capital in early February, so she would indulge Wan Jinlan these days.

These days, Wan Jinlan took Diandian to Yushi's Mansion once, but Xiao Feng was not there, and he heard from Steward Wang that he went to another county.

This year's Lantern Festival, even Xiao Sirui, who hadn't been out for a long time and lost his face, came to the uncle's mansion, waiting for Shen Xingyu and Wan Jinlan to come out to play together.

Xiao Sirui's face was covered with a layer of powder, and there was no trace at all on the scar.

When the sky darkened, the lights in Yangzhou city continued together, forming a bright galaxy.

Xiao Sirui said: "Today my mother specially allowed us to take a boat on the upper reaches of Yanbo Lake. I ordered the servants to decorate the cabin earlier. It must be warmed up now. Let's go quickly."

Concubine Shen was very considerate, let the girls play on the Yanbo Lake in a boat with the logo of the Guangling Palace, and no one who didn't have a good eye would dare to look for trouble.

You know, most of the boats on Yanbo Lake are for fun.Although there are aristocrats from aristocratic families who take pleasure in visiting the lake, occasionally accidents happen.

Before reaching the lake, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo wind music. When I got closer, there were sparks spreading in the Yanbo Lake. On the boats on the dock, there were tulle and red lanterns swaying gently in the air, reflecting a little bit of swaying in the lake. firelight.

Shen Xingyu pointed Wan Jinlan to the boat with red lanterns and beautiful curtains, and whispered, "This kind of boat belongs to Hualou, and most of the boats are men who are looking for flowers and having fun with Hualou's oiran ladies."

Wan Jinlan nodded knowingly, and at a glance, six of the ten boats were made of light red tulle.

After boarding the boat of Guangling Prince's Mansion, he realized that Xiao Sirui's preparations were really sufficient.

The cabin is warm, and the quiet and pleasant incense is lit. Tea is boiling nearby. There are snacks, melons and fruits on the low table, and there is a guqin not far away.

Since the cabin was still burning with charcoal fire, it was a bit stuffy, so Wan Jinlan picked up the cotton curtain on one side of the cabin, leaving the bamboo curtain behind.

The boat was going to the center of the lake, when Xiao Sirui looked out, she saw a dancer dancing in the opposite boat, so she hurriedly asked the boatman to stop.
