The apex pet of the black belly

Chapter 72
In the midsummer of July, the scorching sun was in the sky, and there was no cloud in the blue sky, as if the clouds had been melted by the scorching sun.The sun is so poisonous that it makes people sweat on their foreheads, and the ground is also scorched by the scorching sun, as if it is about to smoke. If you step on the ground with thin and soft embroidered shoes, you can also feel the rolling heat from the floor, which makes you feel so hot. hot.

Shen Yunyi and his party got off the carriage and stood in front of Duke Shen's mansion.

Qin Mochen didn't come to Duke Shen's mansion with him, but went back to his house in the capital.

Shen Guogong's mansion occupies a vast area, one mansion occupies more than half of the street, the appearance is grand and majestic, exuding a heavy and simple charm.

There is a plaque above the main entrance, with gold lacquer on a black background, inscribed with four big characters "Shen Guogong's Mansion", on which is a pen walking around the dragon, flamboyant and phoenix dancing.There is a stone lion standing on both sides of the main entrance, majestic and lifelike.

The servants in front of Shen Guogong's mansion saw Nangong's group, and immediately went forward to salute, and another woman stepped forward to hold an umbrella for Nangong and others, so as to block the scorching sun above their heads, and then opened the main door to welcome Nangong and others to enter. .

After entering the gate, four sedan chairs suddenly appeared, surrounded by four servants, who were obviously the ones carrying the sedan chairs.

This was prepared for Nangong, Shen Yunyi, Shen Wenhan and Shen Wenhao.

When Shen Wenhao saw the sedan chair, he pursed his lips, "I'm a man, what kind of sedan chair should I sit in? Hurry up and get me a horse, so that I can enjoy myself."

Nangong cast a sideways glance at Shen Wenhao, "It's so fun. I don't even look at how hot it is, so don't worry about it. Get on the sedan chair quickly."

After being told by Nangong, Shen Wenhao didn't dare to say any more. After Nangong got on the sedan chair, he picked one at random and sat in it.

The four sedan chairs stopped in front of a hanging flower door, and the servants who carried the sedan chairs all withdrew solemnly, and another woman stepped forward to raise the curtain of the sedan chair, Funan Gong and Shen Yunyi got off the sedan chair, and another woman went to help Shen Wenhan and Shen Wenhao, It's just that both of them refused.

Shen Yunyi and Nangong each supported their mother-in-law's hand and entered the Hanging Flower Gate. On both sides were hand-painted verandahs, and a lot of fresh flowers were planted on each side.

In the middle is the hallway, where there is a mahogany shelf and marble painted landscape screen.Turning around the screen, there are four small halls, and behind the halls is the main courtyard.The five upper rooms on the front are all antique, carved beams and painted buildings.

There are two large vats in front of the courtyard of the main house, in which many lotuses are planted.The lotus leaves are like open green umbrellas, standing on the water surface, like layers of green waves.On the lotus leaves are pink lotus flowers in full bloom. Under the sunshine, they are so charming and delicate.

Seeing Nangong and the others, the maid who was guarding outside the house saluted first, then raised the bamboo curtain of Concubine Xiang, and said loudly, "The eldest princess and Lord Hou have been looking forward to the third lady for a long time, and now they are finally looking forward to it."

Shen Yunyi entered the room, and saw that the room was very spacious, a couple in their fifties were sitting on a bed of red sandalwood carved begonias and arhats on the left and right.On the huanghuali shelf behind him are identical Ru kiln vases with seasonal flowers.There were ice basins all around the room, and there was a hint of coldness, and there were maids standing behind their masters, playing fans non-stop.

The man was wearing a homely indigo robe, his beard and hair were half white, his face was serious, and he had a goatee. When he saw Shen Yunyi, Shen Wenhan and Shen Wenhao, his old eyes revealed a hint of kindness.This is old Shen Guogong Shen Rui.

The woman was wearing a vermilion dress with a pattern of outlining treasures, and there were very few wrinkles on her face, especially compared with Shen Rui beside her, most of her hair, which was tied up in a flat square with a jasper bat pattern, was still jet-black, with only faint hints of it. Some white hair shows that she is well maintained.This is Shen Yunyi's biological grandmother, daughter of the present Empress Dowager, and Ming Kangdi's sister, Princess Dingyang.

Princess Dingyang's eyes have been staring at Shen Yunyi since Shen Yunyi came in, she was right.

Nangong led the three brothers and sisters Shen Yunyi to salute Shen Rui and Princess Dingyang.

After the salute, Princess Dingyang hurriedly waved to Shen Yunyi, "Come here quickly, grandma's sweetheart! You have been in Jiangnan for three years, and grandma's heart aches when she misses you."

Shen Yunyi rushed to Princess Dingyang's arms like a baby swallow throwing herself into the forest, stretched out her arms to hold Princess Dingyang, smelled the faint sandalwood from Princess Dingyang, and felt very at ease in her heart, "Grandma, I am here Jiang Nan misses you too. I can't sleep at night because of the thoughts!"

As soon as Shen Yunyi's words came out, many of the girls sitting below lowered their heads and pursed their lips secretly, thinking that Shen Yunyi is really good at flattering.

Princess Dingyang ordered someone to bring an embroidered pier, put it next to her, and asked Shen Yunyi to sit beside her.

Seeing this, Mrs. Nangong led her two sons, chose three chairs from the sixteen nanmu armchairs in two rows underground, and sat down one by one.

As soon as Nangong and the others sat down, the one sitting above her was wearing a light blue summer shirt, and didn't wear any jewelry on his head, only a silver hairpin, with deep sorrow in his eyes, about thirty years old The woman said, "Third brother and sister, my elder brother's family was also in Jiangnan before. I don't know if they offended the third brother and you. If so, I will apologize to you here."

This person is Mrs. Chen who often talks about it. She is a widow in Shen Guogong's mansion, and she is boiled like oil.

Chu Shi was wearing a water-green brocade skirt with clouds and geese, and the sorrow in his eyes was almost the same as Chu Shi's. He was about twelve or thirteen years old, but because he was young, the sorrowful color was not so strong.

She has a slender figure, and crystal tears welled up in her eyes, like a pure white lotus swaying in the wind, which makes people feel no pity, "Third Aunt, if my eldest uncle's family offends you, I will apologize to you. Just please don't blame me." Uncle and them."

The girl is Shen Yunrou, Chu's only daughter, and also Shen Jiaquan's posthumous daughter.

Originally returning to Shen Guogong's mansion, Nangong was very happy to be able to reunite with her husband and return to the home she had been away for a long time.

It's just that I didn't expect that so soon, that bit of joy was wiped out by the behavior of Chu's mother and daughter in front of me.

Sitting across from Mrs. Chu, only one position away from Mrs. Chu, she was dressed in a moon-white gauze gown with plum patterns. Followed and circulated together, "If there is any misunderstanding here, you have to make it clear quickly. Third Aunt, you also know that the Second Aunt and the Second Sister are weak. If this can't be done well, don't make them worry more and hurt their bodies. At that time, grandfather will not be so distressed to death."

Shen Yunyi looked at the girl who spoke. She is Shen Yunqing, the eldest daughter of Shen Guogong Shen Jiaan. She is [-] years old and has a very domineering personality. She has not seen her for three years, but her temper seems to be getting stronger. She has also learned to sow discord and tell tales.
