Daughter of General

Chapter 129 The Princess

After gently unscrewing the lid, a faint fragrance spread out in all directions.

Although this ointment is called Furong Baiyu ointment, the body of the ointment is light pink. Princess Heshun gently picked up a little bit with her fingers and spread it on the back of her hand. Better."

The corners of Shen Yulan's lips curled up triumphantly - these things took her and Chang Yu a lot of thought, and I don't know how many times they tried before they were finally made.Naturally, it is better than many things on the market now.

Maybe there are better ones in the palace than this one, but they must be very precious, and they won't be leaked out at will.

Therefore, when Shen Yulan heard this compliment, when he went to look at the hibiscus and white jade paste, he only felt that he saw white silver.Suddenly he smiled.

But in the eyes of others, it was only because she felt happy when she was praised.

Guo Shi secretly pushed Shen Yushan, feeling a little annoyed in her heart - she should have tripped Shen Yulan if she knew it earlier.Otherwise, he wouldn't have been robbed of the limelight.

Shen Yushan went forward, next to Princess Heshun, and looked at Shen Yulan with a smile, but her eyes were as sharp as needlepoints: "Sister, why don't you show me such a good thing? No, no, after you go back , I want it too."

That tone sounded like coquetry.

Shen Yulan lowered her eyes and didn't look at Shen Yushan, she just smiled and responded lightly: "Okay, I'll send it to you when I go back."

Princess Heshun laughed: "You two sisters have a good relationship."

Shen Yulan just smiled and said nothing.Shen Yushan took the opportunity to talk more——

It's a pity that I didn't say a few words, but an old mother came over.As soon as she came in, she said with a smile: "Princess Princess, old lady, please tell me that there are guests at home, let me take them over to have a look. But the old lady can say that she only likes young girls who are juicy, and she only prepares a gift for the little girl." .”

When the old mama spoke, it was obviously in a joking and humorous tone, but after listening to her words, people couldn't help but think of a kind-hearted old lady.

Princess Heshun obviously didn't know about this, she was stunned for a while before she realized it, and said to Gu Meng with a smile: "Meng'er, since the old lady ordered, you can take the three younger sisters there."

Gu Meng stood up, smiled at Shen Yulan, and invited: "Then sister, please come with me?"

Shen Yulan had no choice but to drag Jin He to follow—since they were all guests, and the elders wanted to see each other, it was only natural that they should go to ask for a rest.

Jin He seemed a little nervous, her palms were moist.Shen Yulan turned her head and smiled at her: "Don't be afraid, sister, the old lady is definitely not a monster that eats people."

Jin He gave Shen Yulan a white look, and lowered his voice: "The other party is the eldest princess, if we are not well-mannered, wouldn't it be embarrassing."

Shen Yulan clenched her hands a little bit, still chuckling nonchalantly: "You just do as usual. What you learned in school is not a joke, is it?"

Perhaps it was Shen Yulan's indifference that infected Jin He, or perhaps he gained a bit of confidence after hearing this, so Jin He calmed down.

Shen Yushan was originally one step behind, but she didn't know what to think at this time.Suddenly stepped forward, and then sneered: "Sister, don't forget who is your real sister. Don't let people see the joke and think that sister would rather befriend outsiders than be friendly with her own sisters."

Hearing this, Jin He's complexion changed, he lowered his head, bit his lip but couldn't say a word.The outsider Shen Yushan spoke of was naturally her.

Shen Yulan's complexion also sank, and she stared at Shen Yushan coldly: "In my opinion, you are not as good as outsiders. If you are smart, you should know what friendship and kindness are. Even if Sister He's surname is not Shen, after all we are Living under one roof."

Shen Yushan's face turned red with anger, but she was also afraid that people would find out if she started arguing, so she just snorted bitterly: "Sister, don't ruin my good deeds, I will naturally not go against my sister. But if my sister insists on blocking I'm good, so don't blame my sister for being ruthless."

"Don't worry, it's not like I really have nothing to do." Shen Yulan gave Shen Yushan a mocking look, with disdain on her face.

"You—" Shen Yushan became even more angry, but she remembered something again and stopped her mouth bitterly.Instead, there was a smile on his face in a blink of an eye.

Shen Yulan patted Jin He's shoulder comfortingly, and then whispered in Jin He's ear: "Sister He, no matter what others say. We are the closest people, and no one can change this."

Jin He nodded gratefully.Finally, it was much calmer.

Following behind Gu Meng, he arrived outside the main courtyard very quickly.At this time, the nanny who had been following behind came forward with a smile: "Miss, please wait a moment, I will go in and make an announcement."

Shen Yushan rushed to answer: "Mother, please go, as juniors, we should wait."

Gu Meng also stood still and waited together.

Fortunately, after not waiting for a long time, the nanny came out again: "The old lady invited some young ladies in."

Shen Yulan and the others followed in, and they were immediately shocked—it was such a big yard.There is a small candy in the yard, with water lilies and lotuses planted in it, and it is estimated that there may be fish in it.There are also several rather large flower shelves.

The most shocking thing is that in the center of the yard, there is a big sweet-scented osmanthus tree, at least a hundred years old.It is conceivable that when the sweet-scented osmanthus is in bloom, what kind of dark fragrance will it be?
Not only the trees and flowers in the yard are well landscaped, but the house is also carefully designed.There is a circle of chaoshou veranda. When it rains, you can pass through the chaoshou veranda without getting your shoes wet.On the Chaoshou verandah, those carved beams and painted buildings are even more exquisite.

Shen Yulan sighed inwardly—this is the prince and noble.In contrast, the courtyard of the Shen family can only be described as simple and dilapidated.No wonder Gu Meng would say such a sentence at that moment.

There are green dills or spider plants hanging on the porch, and there are also some birds with melodious calls such as thrushes and yellow warblers.

The beautiful scenery of flowers and birdsong is really a place to enjoy.

Shocked, Gu Meng had already led them through the courtyard, and then entered the main room in the middle.As soon as you enter the door, you bypass a huge floor-to-ceiling screen, and you are considered to have entered the inner hall.

A row of maids set off the old lady sitting in the center like stars.

The old lady was dressed in dark green homely clothes, half new and not old, and she didn't have too many accessories on her body, she was completely homely dressed.

Shen Yulan and the others hurriedly bowed down: "Greetings to the old lady."

Then I heard the old lady's kind voice: "Good girl, get up quickly. What are you doing with so much courtesy? Come, come, sit closer. I can take a closer look at you."

Although the voice was gentle, but inadvertently, it showed such a bit of dignity that people hardly dared to resist and refute.

Gu Meng was active, and sure enough, he led them to the chairs near the old lady and sat down respectively.And he himself stood beside the old lady with a smile.I don't know what I remembered.Gu Meng glanced at Shen Yulan with a smile, then leaned down and whispered something in the old lady's ear.

Because of this glance, Shen Yulan suddenly felt all the hairs on his head stand on end, and an ominous premonition came out.

Sure enough, after hearing what Gu Meng said, the old lady looked at Shen Yulan with a smile, and waved at the same time: "You are General Shen's big girl? Come, sit beside me."

As soon as these words came out, even if Shen Yulan didn't want to go, she had no choice but to get up and pass slowly.After passing by, he reluctantly saluted the old lady: "Yu Lan pays respects to the old lady."

The old lady stretched out her hand, grabbed Shen Yulan, looked at it carefully, and immediately smiled: "What a simple girl."

Shen Yulan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this - although it sounds like a compliment, probably no one else would think it was a compliment.

At least, Shen Yushan would definitely not.

Shen Yulan's face became quite natural, and she thanked her frankly; "Thank you, old lady, for your compliment."

"You are quite tall, it seems that you inherited it from your father. What do you do on weekdays? Did you learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" The old lady was really blunt, and asked as if checking her household registration.

Shen Yulan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and immediately replied deliberately: "Yulan is born with a big frame, and she is not as slender and slender as other girls. Even in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is very dull. I really can't learn it."

Hearing Shen Yulan belittle herself so much, Shen Yushan was very happy.

However, Gu Meng was obviously a little anxious, and he took the initiative to defend Shen Yulan: "Yulan is amazing. She has learned medical skills, and she will deliver the birth of Princess Yu with the aunt of the Chang family. If it weren't for them, Concubine Yujun will never allow her mother and daughter to be safe. Especially my little sister, who survived now, is said to be all thanks to Yulan."

Hearing Gu Meng call "Yu Lan" affectionately, Shen Yu Lan only felt chills and anger—why is this man so thick-skinned?It's just that in front of so many people, she is not easy to get angry, so she can only say indifferently: "Thanks to the good teaching of the master, I am not capable of doing it. Mr. Gu praised it absurdly."

The old lady smiled and boasted: "He is a humble and good boy. Although piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can cultivate sentiment, it is not necessary, and it cannot be used as food and money. It doesn't matter if you don't learn." Pause and laugh , "It's the first time we meet today. As an elder, I have prepared a small meeting ceremony, so don't hold it against you."

After saying this, someone nearby brought up a pair of bracelets on a tray.Shen Yulan just glanced at it, thanked her with a smile, and was about to back away.Who knew that the old lady held her down and said with a smile, "Just sit next to me."

Shen Yulan had no choice but to suppress her irritability and sit obediently.

Then the old lady gave Shen Yushan and Jin He a meeting gift—this made Shen Yulan a little surprised: Why didn't Shen Yushan get engaged to Gu Meng and haven't seen the old lady?
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly heard the old lady ask: "Girl Yulan, are you talking about someone else?"

Shen Yulan almost fell off the chair immediately.
