Splendid Book

Chapter 15 Borrowing Money
Seeing that Shen Changle seemed unhappy, Aunt An quickly stepped forward and said, "Third miss, forgive me, since fourth miss has recovered from her illness, she often speaks without restraint. If there is something that makes the girl unhappy, I will act on her behalf. Apologize to the third girl."

"Sister Yue is my younger sister, you can't say anything about the matter between us sisters," Shen Changle deliberately scolded Aunt An with a straight face.

At this moment, Shen Yue suddenly raised her head, and stared at her firmly, as if she was annoyed that Shen Changle talked to Aunt An like this.And although Aunt An was reprimanded by a little doll, she didn't dare to say anything else, she kept apologizing: "It's my concubine's fault, so I shouldn't talk too much."

"Lvwu, hold me to see the big white bird," Shen Changle called back to Luwu, the big white bird is parked on the lake in the distance, so if you want to see it up close, you have to go under the willow tree by the lake Woolen cloth.

Lu Wu glanced at Aunt Shun, and seeing that she agreed, she stretched out her arms to hug her, and said with a smile: "Your servant will accompany you to see the big white bird."

When she went over with Shen Changle in her arms, she saw Shen Lingcheng hurried over with someone.Seeing that he was also coming, Shen Changle waved at him cheerfully and asked, "Daddy, are you also here to see the big white bird?"

Shen Lingcheng looked in the direction she was pointing at, and said with a broken smile, "Changle also likes this white swan?"

"White fox?" Shen Changle turned his head to take a look, but it was clearly a kind of bird.

At this time, a man standing behind Shen Lingcheng blew a loud whistle towards the center of the lake, and saw the big white bird flying over from the lake immediately.As soon as the big white bird came ashore, two young men in green shirts behind him immediately stepped forward and put it into the cage.

"Daddy, why are you locked up?" Shen Changle asked anxiously.

Shen Lingcheng smiled, and explained: "Because it hasn't been domesticated yet, after a few days it will be domesticated, and Daddy will put it on the lake again."

Shen Changle nodded, and watched with a smile as the servant took the big white bird away.

"Second brother, do you know what a swan is?" Shen Changle put his hands on his cheeks and asked Shen Ruwen who was eating cakes with puffy cheeks.

Shen Ruwen shook his head, chewed a few more mouthfuls, then swallowed the pastry, and asked, "What is a swan, what are you asking for?"

"Yesterday I saw a big white bird by the lake. Someone told me it was a swan, but my father said it was a 'white fox'." Shen Changle was really curious, but the bird was quite similar to a red-crowned crane, but The whole body is snow-white, and the feathers are shiny. It is really beautiful and magical to look at.

"You mean the pair of swans, which were specially sent by someone for dad to enjoy. They are extremely precious. The year before last, someone paid tribute to the emperor. I heard that it is fashionable to raise them in the capital. But our family That pair hasn't been domesticated yet, the one just ran out accidentally yesterday, if you like it, I'll show you later." Shen Ruyan understood what she was talking about, no Why do you care about it?

Although this kind of white swan looks exquisite and expensive, it does not please boys after all.He prefers eagles, and his father also has a pair of good Haidongqings, but he has never been allowed to approach them.

"Alas, the chick knows the ambition of the grand swan." Shen Ruwen shook his head and recited a sentence, then raised his chin and said proudly: "I look at the white swan like this, and it is locked in a cage like a chick. You can see what the ancients said , not quite right."

Only then did Shen Changle understand that it turned out that it was a swan and not a fox.It's just that she has never seen such a bird in her previous life, let alone domesticated by a noble family in the capital. Could it be that it is a trend that only started in this life?
But Shen Yue clearly said, this bird is only kept in the palace?
Forget it, this world is changing rapidly, maybe it is rising now, and after a while, this trend will pass again?It's just Shen Yue, Shen Changle sighed, if it wasn't for her own experience, she would never have believed that there would be rebirth in this world, but now it seems that it is not the person who has such an adventure. Only her.

But all of this is just her conjecture.

So she came back to her senses, snorted at Shen Ruwen, and laughed at him: "My brother has only read the book for a few days, and he dares to doubt what the book says."

"Don't tell me, even my husband praised me, saying that I don't just follow the words in the book, but I have my own thinking," Shen Ruan was about to make a long speech, but looked at the little girl opposite, holding The chubby little face looked at him without blinking, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Hey, why am I telling you this, you don't understand."

"I understand, I understand, brother can tell me," Shen Changle said while holding his hand, smiling coquettishly.

"No, you little liar," Shen Ruan glared at her and hummed.

But after a while, Shen Ruwen seemed unable to hold back, and glanced at Shen Changle.In the end, I still couldn't hold back, glanced to the side, and said in a low voice: "Chang Le, do you have any money?"

"Silver? What is silver?" Shen Changle deliberately teased him.

"Hey, you idiot, it's money, money that can be used to buy things, don't you have monthly silver?" Shen Rufan said anxiously.

Shen Changle heard that he actually scolded himself for being a fool, immediately lost his temper, snorted, and said: "Even if there is, I won't give it to my second brother."

"Okay, okay, I shouldn't call you an idiot, it's the second brother who made a mistake, so can you lend me some money," Shen Ruwan coaxed her.

Shen Changle is not a real child, how could he be fooled by his few words.It seems that her second elder brother's extravagant temperament was really cultivated since he was a child. He is only a little older now, and he knows that he has come to borrow money from his sister.

"Brother, what do you want money for?" Shen Changle asked.

Shen Ruan glanced at her, and said with a smile: "You little girl, why do you ask so many, you borrowed it from me first, and when I have the moon silver next month, I just return it to you."

"No way," Shen Changle shook his head firmly.

"Good sister, so Changle, can you help second elder brother this time?" Seeing that threats are useless, Shen Ru immediately began to beg. He took Shen Changle's little hand and said affectionately: "Second elder brother treats you well on weekdays. Come on, I'm thinking of you for everything delicious and fun."

Shen Changle glanced at him suspiciously, as if he had been the one who came to her yard to eat and drink so far.He said that every time he came to eat dim sum, he ordered it all alone in the small kitchen, and he couldn't eat it without a tael of silver.Besides, the expenses in each yard have their fixed numbers, but the expenses in her yard are all the same, it must be more than her own fixed number, and her father often gives her various things.

"That's not it." Shen Changle glared at him, but still said softly: "Then tell me, what do you want money for?"

"It will be a temple fair in two days. I saw a set of ink ingots a few days ago. They are all of excellent quality. It's a pity that I don't have that much money. The boss said to keep it for me, but at most I can keep it until It's the day of the temple fair, otherwise it would definitely be bought," Shen Ruan scratched her head and said with some embarrassment.

In fact, it stands to reason that he should go to his elder brother for this matter, but he is too embarrassed to talk to his elder brother.On the contrary, it was this silly sister, he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

As soon as Shen Changle heard the word temple fair, his eyes lit up.She asked, "How much is the second brother short?"

"It's enough for you to lend me ten taels." Shen Rufan was a loose hand, but Shen Lingcheng disciplined his two sons very strictly. Apart from the monthly silver, there was no other reward.Even if it is rewarded by the old ladies and ladies in the backyard, it is for food and drink every time, or the four treasures of the study. These things are good, but they are not money.So Shen Rufan really didn't have a lot of money.

"So many," Shen Changle tilted his head to look at him.

While the two were talking, Shen Lingcheng came in from the outside. As soon as he came in, Shen Ruwen stood up immediately and greeted him.As for Shen Changle, after Shen Lingcheng sat down, she leaned unceremoniously beside him. She looked up at him and asked, "Daddy, can I go to the temple fair?"

"Temple fair?" Shen Lingcheng immediately turned to look at his son next to him. This little girl is only a little older, maybe she doesn't even know what a temple fair is, and this kid must be instigating his sister again.

Shen Rufan was anxious on the sidelines, he was borrowing money to go shopping, but the little fat girl was fine, and she had to go by herself, it's too bad, too bad, dad must think that I encouraged her.

"Tell Dad, why do you want to go to the temple fair?" Shen Lingcheng asked her, while glaring at Shen Rufan.

"I just want to go, I just want to go," Shen Changle said relentlessly, influencing her as a child now, even if she acts coquettishly, that's what she should do.

Shen Changle was very close to Shen Lingcheng, and now he was almost hanging on him to act like a baby. Hearing the faint scent of milk on the little girl's body, and hearing her milky voice asking for this and that, he smiled immediately, and finally received He kept saying: "Okay, okay, since Changle wants to go, then go."

Shen Rufan was dumbfounded as she watched from the sidelines: "..." Both were born to the same father and mother, why did the father treat the younger sister so well, beat him or scolded him, and he was given a punishment the day before yesterday.

"Daddy is so kind," Shen Changle immediately flattered him.

Shen Lingcheng enjoyed the little girl's pursuit very much, nodded and said: "My Changle is also good."

Shen Ruan looked at the two of them, touched the buttocks that were still hurting, was he really born by his father?
