Splendid Book

Chapter 90
Wei Yansheng single-handedly begged to see the old lady, knelt down in front of her, and begged her to marry Shen Hui to him.This paragraph is just a few short lines of words, but the wind and clouds in it are rich and colorful that cannot be painted by the best brush in the world.

When the second wife heard the news, her face turned pale with shock. Although she was grateful to Wei Yansheng for saving Shen Hui's life, it was obvious that Wei Yansheng was not his ideal son-in-law.

Of course, Shen Changle only heard about these things later, the old lady only asked Shen Hui for her opinion, and she nodded when she saw her.Then I found Shen Lingcheng again, and asked Shen Lingcheng to give the articles written by Wei Yan in his daily life to a great scholar he knew well. Afterwards, the great scholar calmed down. Although the articles were not colorful, they were more solid and steady. Mirror flowers and water moon.

Having said that, the second wife let go.Besides, the old lady has never seen any big storms in her life, how can she not guess her thoughts.It was just four or two attempts to make her understand that it is better to find an honest scholar than to find a noble son like Feng Youfeng.Besides, Wei Yansheng didn't have the sourness of a scholar. When he didn't know Shen Hui, he could sacrifice his life for her. Now that he really became his own wife, there's no reason why he doesn't love her even more.

Mrs. Chen herself married into a noble family, but she has never been loved by her husband all her life. Now she and Shen Lingchang are fighting like black corns.So when I calm down, I also understand that for a woman, the love of her husband is not the most important thing, but it is absolutely impossible to not have this love.

In addition, this will be a draft right away, and no matter whether they are selected or not, they have to go around the palace for a while.If a prince and concubine can be selected, it is a matter of Guangzong Yaozu, but if a side concubine is selected, no matter how unhappy he is, he still has to thank the emperor for his kindness.

Although Mrs. Chen wanted her daughter to marry a rich family, she never thought of selling her daughter for glory. The old lady frightened her a little, and she nodded hastily.

So this scare, together with the marriage from mentioning to finalizing, was settled within a month.Wei Yansheng specially invited a gentleman from his academy to come to propose marriage, and it was this gentleman who brought him to the birthday banquet of the Jining Marquis's mansion back then, which formed the relationship.

Naturally, Wei Yansheng invited this gentleman, and besides, at the Wei family's hometown, the elders heard that their son was going to marry a noble woman in the Duke's mansion, so they hurriedly sent over his horoscope.After the horoscope is combined, a small decision is made.

Originally, Mrs. Chen was still moaning at home, and her daughter became a big girl, but who knew that the meeting would be settled so soon.Can't help but feel melancholy.Therefore, when she prepared Shen Hui's dowry, she was careful.

When Ye Ling heard that Shen Hui was engaged, she was also curious, but when she heard about what happened on the Lantern Festival, she immediately praised it, this is not the story in the story book.

"It's great now, Sister Hui is engaged," Ye Ling sighed, and pulled Shen Changle to start discussing what kind of wedding gift should be given to Shen Hui.

Shen Changle was dressed up by her jumping thinking, flicked on her forehead, and said with a smile: "You are really, you are thinking too far, big sister is just engaged."

"You are not sure that they will get married within this year, so you have to make a fuss," Ye Ling said solemnly.

The two chatted and laughed again, and then Ye Ling sighed in front of her: "You don't know, there is a person in the women's school who is impetuous. I don't think they have learned anything about the chastity and virtuousness taught by the gentlemen on weekdays."

"What's the matter?" When the two of them were chatting, they would also talk about women's studies, after all, Shen Changle was also a former student of women's studies.

"It's not because of the draft. It hasn't been selected for many years. Before, the emperor only proposed marriages to the princes alone, but this meeting is to propose marriages to four princes at once. I think everyone thinks they have a chance. "It's not that Ye Ling is high-minded, it's just that the atmosphere in the women's school is really weird recently, and she's really not used to it.

Shen Changle nodded, let alone the girls' school was weird, but her family was not at peace.Shen Languang ordered three sets of clothes in just this month, and also ordered a set of clothes at Zhenbao Pavilion, the best jewelry store in the capital. According to the gossip from Luwu, the ruby ​​inlaid on it alone was as big as a soybean.It can be seen that Shen Landuo wants to be selected in the draft.

And the students in the women's school are either well-known or famous, and almost all the top ladies in the capital are there.It is estimated that several princes and concubines will be born among these girls, so they will have to compete.

"That's not surprising. Those who can enter the women's school are all girls with good looks, talents, education and family background. The prince and concubine are probably among these people." Shen Changle nodded, expressing his understanding.

Ye Ling pursed her lips, and said with some disdain: "The girls in our class are all only 14 years old. I thought everyone was just making up numbers. I didn't expect that they were the same as those in the Tianzi class. , especially that Xu Yuexin..."

Upon hearing this familiar name, Shen Changle was taken aback immediately, and blurted out, "What's wrong with Xu Yuexin?"

"I don't know where the news came from, that the concubine De concubine has taken a fancy to Xu Yuexin and asked the emperor to marry her to the seventh prince," Ye Ling's words were filled with disdain.

She is attached in her heart, so she is naturally not interested in the position of the prince and concubine. Now when talking about these girls who are eager to try, there is a sense of arrogance in her heart that she disdains to be with them.

Besides, the princes have had their own reputations in the capital for so many years.But if you want to say the most famous one, it really has to be Ji Yu.The Seventh Prince's grand appearance has resounded throughout the capital these years.

It's just a little thing about him, I guess these girls are very dear to their hearts.Originally, I saw that this was a fairy, but now I have the opportunity to get close to this fairy, who doesn't have such a little bit of wishful thinking in his heart.

Shen Changle heard the news more than she did, but she didn't expect the news to spread more and more violently. She couldn't help asking: "How can such nonsense be said, isn't it a bad reputation?"

"It's just that, I think those who spread these words have no good intentions, they just set up Xu Yuexin as a target," Ye Ling, who has always been outspoken, felt a little disgusted when he thought of these female students who were also intriguing.

Shen Changle also understood what she said, but she was also afraid that what she said would be wrong, so she didn't mention it at all.

"This year's Shangsi Festival, you are not allowed to stay at home anymore," Ye Ling changed the topic very quickly, and talked about it as soon as he turned around.

Before Shen Changle was dodging, because there were too many people outside during the Shangsi Festival, he didn't want to go out.Ye Ling was with the girls in the class last year, but among the dozen or so of them, even if one of them said a word, they would still be twittering, and even if they went for an outing, they all had to learn from each other.Ye Ling was extremely bored with studying in the girls' school every day, but in the end, she still wanted to look like a talented girl in such a leisurely and leisurely life.

Do you think she is willing?
It's only mid-February now, and she came to beg Ye Ling.What she didn't know was that Shen Changle didn't want to go out with her because he was afraid of meeting Ye Lanting.The meeting between her and Ye Lanting in the past few years is very rare.So she also thought that maybe Ye Lanting had forgotten herself.

"If you don't accompany me, I will have to go with those people again this year," Ye Ling made a pitiful appearance. After the Shangsi Festival last year, she came to the Duke of Wei's mansion, but she complained for an hour. Did not stop.

So this year she has made up her mind, even if she is cheeky, she must drag Shen Changle away.

She has always been good at stalking, so even if Shen Changle is full of determination, she will bow down at this moment.So she said happily: "Then we can make a deal, you are not allowed to go back on your word."

Naturally, you cannot go back on your word.

Originally, this year's Shangsi Festival, Shen Hui didn't want to go out again, after all, she was already engaged to a girl.But the old lady said: "It's better to go out and relax. This is your last Shangsi Festival as a girl. It's different after all."

After being told by the old lady, Shen Hui couldn't put it off any longer.

The five girls from the Shen family were all going to go, and Shen Jin even called Lin Xinlan. Among these sisters, Lin Xinlan was the only one who was willing to flatter her, so Shen Jin valued this follower very much, and would think of any good things she.

On Shen Changle's side, Ye Ling was naturally brought along.Just for the Shangsi Festival, Ye Ling stayed here one day in advance.And Shen Lan and Shen Yue both made appointments with friends who were classmates, but they always went out together when they went out.

Although this is a little girl's festival, the elders in the family dare not really let them go out alone.The old lady took her two daughters-in-law to go together, and there was a temple next to the place where they went outing.There are not many near the capital, but there are many Buddhist temples, large and small.Among them, the incense of Daci Temple is the most prosperous, but Daci is in the capital, and every family is willing to go to the outskirts of the city on such days.

Therefore, Fahui Temple on the outskirts of the city is the most popular at this time of year.

Everyone got ready early in the morning, and when they got together, they were all dressed up.Even Shen Changle, who has always liked blue and other cool colors, wore a crimson shirt today. She was born with a face like white jade, but the crimson color made her look even more bright and generous.And this crimson embroidered silver thread wrapped lotus flower dress, when it is in the sun, reflects a little silver light from time to time, and its long black and beautiful hair is tied into a ponytail, and a silver strip is cleverly wrapped in the hair. On the chain, there are five-color jewels hanging from it, pink crystal, ruby, and sapphire. It is full of treasure, but it also conceals simplicity.

Except for Shen Hui, the other girls from the Shen family showed more or less emotions when they saw her dressed up.

Shen Jin also dressed up carefully today, but when she looked at the third sister, she felt that she was not outstanding in any way, even if her clothes were embroidered with gold thread instead of silver thread, she felt that the gold thread was too exaggerated and not enough The silver thread is bright and beautiful.

On the contrary, the old lady looked at the girls, she really felt like she was in a garden, each with its own beauty, all good, all good.

"Okay, let's all get in the car," the old lady ordered, and Mrs. Chen hurriedly came over to help her into the car.

Chen and Zhao naturally wanted to sit with the old lady, and Shen Changle, Shen Hui and Ye Ling made a carriage, Shen Lan and Shen Yue had a carriage, and finally Shen Jin and Lin Xinlan had a carriage. car.

Seeing Shen Jin's gloomy face, Lin Xinlan couldn't help but feel anxious, this cousin is really too uncertain.But with a wrong eye, she was unhappy again.Lin Xinlan also often feels tired, but she will rely on Shen Jin to support her in the future, so naturally she dare not offend her.So she had to ask carefully: "Cousin, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Jin is naturally jealous of Shen Changle, she has prepared for half a month for her outfit, from clothes to jewelry.The spring shirt on her body was made in a hurry, but when she saw Shen Changle, she felt that she was being compared.

Shen Changle is tall and tall, and he wears any clothes with a sense of chic and ease, Shen Jin can't compare to this alone.

Not to mention the appearance, although Shen Jin is also a delicate little beauty, but compared to Shen Changle's appearance, it is far worse.

"It's nothing." Shen Jin was a little impatient, unwilling to show her little thoughts.

Seeing her bad tone, Lin Xinlan sighed secretly, and really didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The place the carriage was going to was a peach grove on the outskirts of the city. This peach grove was the property of Fahui Temple, and later gradually attracted people from the capital to come for outings.During the Shangsi Festival, almost every family will gather here.In order to attract pilgrims, Fahui Temple expanded the peach grove a lot. It is said that the peaches produced every year alone are worth thousands of catties.

It was the time when the peach blossoms were in full bloom. From a distance, it looked like a pale pink cloud. Ye Ling picked up the curtains and looked outside.Although I have seen it last year, I still think it is beautiful after watching it this year.

"As soon as the wind blows, it rains flowers from the sky. I don't know how beautiful it is. We have to go in and take a stroll later," Ye Ling said. Last year, she still wanted to go shopping.

Just as I was talking, I arrived. There is a small stream in front of the peach forest, which is not wide, but the stream is so clear that even the stones at the bottom of the lake can be clearly seen.At this time, on the grassland by the river, curtains have already been set up in a patchwork pattern, and these are for the use of the female relatives of each family.Although it is an outing, in order to prevent prodigal sons who have ascended to the map, the female relatives of each family have covered it with brocade.

But there is a sign hanging in front of each curtain, so you can know whose curtain it is when you see the sign in front of it.

Their carriage stopped in front of their own tents, and the girls still put on their caps when they got out of the carriage, and they didn't take them off until they got inside the tent.

After going in and sitting for a while, the old lady looked at the girls sitting below. Although they were all sitting upright, she couldn't wait to see them, so she waved her hands and said, "Let's all go and play separately, and there is no need to accompany them here." with us."

She said a word, but everyone didn't dare to move, after she said another word, Shen Changle said: "Then we will really go, grandma, don't you be envious?"

"You girl," the old lady saw that she was arranging herself, and immediately stretched out her hand as if to strike.

Naturally, Shen Changle was with Ye Ling and Shen Hui. Ye Ling just said that he wanted to go to Taolin, and the three of them led the maidservants there together.As for Shen Yue and Shen Lan, they went to find their own friends. As for Shen Jin, there was also a party in her class, but she was not in a hurry, so she went to the river with Lin Xinlan for a stroll.

Anyone can come to the Peach Blossom Forest. There are already people in the forest at this time, but fortunately, the forest is big enough, so they go to a secluded place next to it, so no one will bother them.

Shen Changle looked at the bustling tree, Ye Ling watched from the side, pushed her, and said with a smile: "It's beautiful, I told you not to come last year, do you regret it?"

But who would have thought that when she opened her mouth, "There are so many peach blossoms, how many peaches do they have to produce?"

Puchi, not to mention Ye Ling, even Shen Hui couldn't help it, laughing so hard that a flower branch trembled.As for Luwu behind Shen Changle, her face turned red from laughing, and she couldn't help saying: "Girl, when other girls see this peach blossom, they will either recite poems or fight against it. You are better, and want to eat it."

Shen Changle blinked, this peach blossom is beautiful, but it will fall when the wind blows.On the contrary, the fruit that will be borne later is quite yearning for her.How spectacular it would be when the peaches came out.

"Hahaha," the laughter that suddenly came to mind, shocked the girls and turned around in a hurry.

As a result, he saw not far away, a young man wearing a royal blue brocade robe and a gold crown of suet, white jade, and silk, was holding his waist, smiling happily.Apparently he laughed like this after hearing Shen Changle's words.

As soon as Shen Changle saw him, he felt very familiar, and felt that he had seen him somewhere, but he just couldn't remember.

As a result, as soon as the boy here laughed, a little man sprang out from the peach tree next to him, a little boy of four or five years old.He looked at the laughing boy with dissatisfaction and said, "Uncle Jiu, you want to play hide-and-seek with me."

"I don't want to play with you," said the young boy, apparently impatient to serve the little guy, only caring about his own enjoyment.

The little boy must have been spoiled at home, and when he heard him say that, his mouth deflated and he was about to cry.But when he turned his head to look over, he froze for a moment.After a while, he threw off his short legs and ran over, stood in front of Shen Changle, and asked innocently: "Sister, what's your name?"

But that's not enough, but the little boy has stretched out his little hand, stood on tiptoe, took her palm hanging by her side, and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful."

Shen Changle was dumbfounded, she never thought that she would be molested by a four or five year old boy.
