Daughter of General

Chapter 10 Miss General's Mansion
Shen Yulan and Jin He lay side by side on the bed, Jin He held Shen Yulan's hand tightly, a little too hard.But Shen Yulan knew that this was Jin He's way of showing his insecurity.

For Jin He, the existence of Shen Yulan is actually extremely important.

"Should we go to greet that woman every day in the future?" Jin He's voice came from the darkness, seeming a little erratic and unwilling.

Shen Yulan gave a soft "hmm".Mrs. Guo is an elder, and they are juniors. No matter what, they must go to pay their respects every day.Like it or not, that's the rule.

"The descriptions of uncle and aunt are a bit different." Jin He said again, his voice lost and disappointed.

Shen Yulan couldn't help but twitched the corners of her lips and smiled - naturally it was different.Wu's feelings for Shen Junzhi are enough to blind Wu's eyes.Besides, having not seen each other for so many years, Wu's impression of Shen Junzhi is probably more beautified.There is a gap between imagination, nature and reality.

"Uncle seems to love you very much." Jin He said again.

"Perhaps." Shen Yulan replied vaguely.It only takes one day, what can you see?If you can keep it all the time, that is the real love.Now... at best, it is making up for it.

"You don't like bitter melon." Jin He's voice was a little puzzled: "Why didn't you tell uncle?"

"Why bother? It doesn't matter if you like it or not?" Shen Yulan chuckled lightly: "As long as he has that kind of heart. And, Sister He, in this family from now on, we can no longer do as we like in the countryside. Whether you like it or not, you can't put it on your face. You have to keep it in mind."

Jin He didn't make a sound, as if he didn't quite understand.But Shen Yulan didn't say any more, just turned over: "Okay, let's go to sleep, I have to get up tomorrow to greet my wife."

Jin He didn't object, but subconsciously reached out to tuck the quilt for Shen Yulan.

Shen Yulan curled up her lips, closed her eyes and fell asleep.Although Jin He is young, she is very meticulous, gentle and caring.

Shen Yulan thought of her grandma.Her parents divorced when she was a child, but they were unwilling to carry her burden. She followed her grandmother since she was a child.In life, it seems that the only warmth is given by grandma.

The grandma in my impression was always like Jin He, who would naturally tuck her in the quilt when she was sleeping.

The next day, as soon as the light came on, Jin He woke up Shen Yulan: "It's time to get up, didn't you say you want to greet your wife?"

Shen Yulan yawned and got up, then washed and dressed, combed her hair, and after everything was done, Shen Yulan ordered the girl to lead them to pay her respects to Mrs. Guo.

The maids serving in the room now are still there before, and it was Guo who sent them here to serve Jin He.It was said to be "serving", but Shen Yulan felt that it was more of a reminder and monitoring role.When there is work, the girls don't move, but their mouths turn quickly.And it's "the rules of our house" when you open your mouth and keep your mouth shut.It doesn't have to be terribly annoying.

Shen Yulan really wanted to ask, who is the master and who should discipline whom.

But thinking about his current precarious situation, he finally endured it.

Compared with those little girls, Jin He is more like a girl—for example, Jin He does most of the things that serve Shen Yulan to wash up.

Seeing Jin He's willingness to work hard, Shen Yulan could only compete with her in addition to being depressed.Otherwise, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that Jin He will no longer be a cousin, but a little maid.

Didn't you see that there was something wrong with the attitude and expression of those girls looking at Jin He?
Speaking of which, Jin He's identity is too embarrassing.Originally, the status of a sojourner made people look down upon him, and he was still a relative of the Wu family. ． ． ． ． ．And Shen Yulan is still Shen Junzhi's serious daughter, no matter what, she is a serious master.On the surface, girls and women still dare not do anything.

Arrived in Guo Shi's yard, Guo Shi was washing up, when she heard the girl tell that Shen Yulan and Jin He had come to pay her respects, she was a little surprised, she raised her eyebrows, and glanced at the old woman next to her: "It's very interesting .”

That woman is Nanny Qin, Guo's nanny, who has always been very embarrassing in front of Guo's.Therefore, in the whole mansion, the weight is taken lightly, even Shen Junzhi has to be treated lightly.

Qin Nanny also smiled: "It's good to be knowledgeable. In the future, my wife will not worry. But, what can I do if I don't know the taste? The Wu family is gone, and the only thing they can rely on now is you, wife?"

"Well. Since they are very interesting, I'm not mean. I have to treat them well. Not to mention comparing with Yushan, but it's not too bad, is it?" Guo smiled and picked out a hairpin. , one side said so.

Nanny Qin nodded and said, "How can you compare with Miss Yushan? One is Miss Qianjin, and the other is a country girl. How can they be confused?"

Mrs. Guo smiled, and told the girl to lead Shen Yulan and the others in.

Nothing went wrong with Qiang An, and Guo Shi also pretended to be concerned about some things on the way, and gave some instructions, which seemed to be a bit of an elder's kindness.In the end, I also rewarded a bunch of materials and things, which are all useful.For example, I gave a box of jewellery—they were all worn by little girls. Although they are not worth much, they are all beautiful.

Shen Yulan knew in her heart that Mrs. Guo was doing this for others to see.Moreover, no matter how you say it now, she is still a decent young lady in the mansion, if she is too shabby...what will she look like?
"Both you and Jin He have a monthly allowance of silver. Yushan also has it. You are both the same as Yushan, with two taels of silver. You are also ten years old, so I will give you the silver directly, and you manage it yourself, how about it? "Sitting upright, Guo said with a smile.

Shen Yulan hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you, madam."

"There are other things, such as clothes for the four seasons, food and clothing expenses, and the people who serve you are the same as Yushan. It's just that the people who serve you are not easy to find for a while, so you just make do with them. When you have time back, let the toothmaid bring people in, and you can pick a few." Guo said again, saying the same things as Yushan.

Shen Yulan understood more and more that Mrs. Guo said this on purpose.

I don't care about it right now, anyway, just give her a lot.There was also an expression of gratitude on his face.Guo's attitude is good, so she will not deliberately provoke anything.

Guo's attitude is kind, and she will repay her twice, so that others can't find anything wrong.

In the end, Mrs. Guo asked Shen Yulan to go back while eating.

After leaving Guo's door, Jin He's tense nerves relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing Jin He like this, Shen Yulan couldn't help laughing: "It's not a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, look at how scared you are."

Jin He explained in a low voice: "That posture, how can people not be afraid? Everyone in the room is looking at us. But you, you seem to be okay."

Shen Yulan grinned sullenly.

At this time, Mrs. Guo was talking to Nanny Qin: "What do you think of these two little girls?"

"I won't talk about that Jin He. It's Miss Yulan who seems to know the rules. It seems that Mrs. Wu is well-bred. She doesn't look like a countryman. If you don't talk about it, she is also a small family jade. It's just that she can't compare with Yu Miss Shan." Nanny Qin's answer was very to the point, but she smiled with a bit of malice: "Although the appearance is not very good, it is not bad. If you get married in the future, it will be good."

"I'm not worried about Jin He. Anyway, I'm just a poor relative, and I'll keep it if I raise it. But I'll spend some money and pay for a dowry in the future. But that Shen Yulan..." Guo pursed her lips: " It doesn't look like a fool."

"It's hard to be fooled, the master won't talk about it, and he will be out of the door in a few years." The mother-in-law smiled, and then changed the topic: "Miss Yushan should get up, should I set the meal first?"

Mentioning Shen Yushan, the expression on Guo's face became softer - different from the pretentious softness towards Shen Yulan before, this time, it was completely revealed from the inside out.

After Shen Junzhi returned to the mansion, Mrs. Guo asked someone to deliver things to Shen Yulan's yard again.It happened that Shen Junzhi was also there, so they naturally bumped into one place.

Shen Yulan looked at Shen Junzhi's satisfied expression, and suddenly smiled a half-smile - Mrs. Guo really pinched it very well at this time.

However, Shen Junzhi also has some dissatisfaction - for example, the yard is too dilapidated.

"My wife said, I'm staying here temporarily, and when the weather gets cooler, I'll find a craftsman to repair it." This time it was Shen Yulan who took the initiative to speak. Since Mrs. Guo is so considerate, she can't be indifferent, can she?

Faced with Shen Yulan's words, Shen Junzhi immediately felt relieved: "Then I have wronged you for the time being."

Shen Yulan just smiled, and then asked: "Where is father having dinner?"

Shen Junzhi looked at the look of anticipation in Shen Yulan's eyes, and naturally couldn't bear to refuse, so he naturally agreed: "Then let's use it with you."

Shen Yulan immediately smiled brightly, and sweetly agreed.She planned to "cultivate" a good relationship with Shen Junzhi.Although there is a blood relationship, in her opinion, if there is no acquired cultivation, no matter how blood is thicker than water, it is useless.

It's just that as soon as the food was served at this end, Mother Qin from Guo's house at the other end came over and said that Shen Junzhi was invited to eat.

Shen Junzhi suddenly hesitated——

Shen Yulan lowered her head, pursed her lips and said nothing.There is no intention of keeping it.On the contrary, seeing that Shen Junzhi was too embarrassed, he even forced a smile: "Father, let's go to the wife. Maybe the wife has something important to do."

Shen Junzhi suddenly felt more and more guilty, pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "Yu Lan, follow me too." Then he glanced at Jin He again, "Jin He, you go with me too?"

Jin He shook his head sensiblely: "No, Uncle, I'll just stay in the room."

Shen Junzhi didn't invite again, and left with Shen Yulan.Shen Yulan glanced at Jin He apologetically.On the contrary, Jin He waved his hand at her indifferently.

Shen Yulan felt better now.It's not that she doesn't let Jin He go - it's that there's no need for Jin He to go, it's just uncomfortable.No matter how much Guo Shi doesn't like her, it's not too much.But Jin He couldn't dislike Guo Shi too much.Otherwise life will be sad.
