Chapter 2 You can co back... so good
"Also, I have a mother myself, and I don't care to be your sister."
The implication is, don't be self-righteous.
Pei Ji was silent: "Sorry, I didn't think carefully..."
Shen Mingyan frowned in disapproval, "Fourth sister, Mr. Pei also has good intentions..."
Shen Mingjiao glanced at her lazily, "Since that's the case, let the third sister pay back the five hundred taels of silver for Mr. Pei!"
Shen Mingyan's face froze, she really didn't.
Today's Yongchang Hou's Mansion is just a show, and she really can't afford so much money as a boudoir girl! She looked at Pei Ji, and stood there with a face of bewildernt.
Pei Ji smiled comfortingly at her, took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Shen Mingjiao.
"I don't have that much silver with , so I will use this jade pendant to pay for it!"
Shen Mingjiao took it, and imdiately knew that it was a high-quality black jade, and one piece was worth at least a thousand taels.
She pushed the jade pendant back, "I said it was five hundred taels, no more and no less. If you don't have any cash with you, you can send your followers back to pick it up. We will pay you both."
Pei Ji took a deep look at her, "Okay."
Yongchang Hou's Mansion is only one street away from the Yasukuni Mansion. Within two cups of tea ti, the servant brought the silver ticket.
Pei Ji handed five 100 tael banknotes to Shen Mingjiao,
Shen Mingjiao took the bank note, then took out the marriage certificate, and tore it to pieces in front of the two of them.
Shen Mingyan stared at her in surprise.
Shen Mingjiao looked up, t her gaze, and evoked a coquettish smile at her.
In the previous life and later, this marriage letter has caused her a lot of trouble.
eting the other party's knowing eyes, Shen Mingyan panicked instinctively.
Shen Mingjiao shook her hands indifferently, "Okay, since the matter has been settled, I'll leave first, you two please go your own way."
Pei Ji looked at the back of her leaving without hesitation, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily, but for so reason, his heart was not as relaxed as he imagined.
No one saw it, and there was a person standing silently in the shadow of pines and cypresses on the opposite side of the rockery. A pair of blue jewel-like eyes stared closely at the slender figure.
There are too many things hidden in those eyes, there is pain, there is confusion, and finally turned into longing and joy.
The man moved his lips, his voice was as soft as a gust of wind,
"It's good to have you back..."
…
Shen Mingjiao endured her hungry stomach and returned to Rose Garden, she couldn't help complaining about herself in her previous life, as for you! How can it be important for a man to eat!
The maid Haitang was startled when she saw him coming in from the outside, and asked in a daze, "Girl... aren't you in the room?"
Shen Mingjiao looked at this little maid who had been with her for two lifetis, and sure enough, no matter how many years had passed, this face as weak as a white flower was still so deceptive, so she gently rubbed her head,
"Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death."
Haitang was obviously stunned for a mont, and after realizing it, she responded with surprise on her face: "Yes, yes, the big kitchen sent you your favorite buns, are they still hot?"
Shen Mingjiao entered the room and sat down at the Eight Immortals table. A bowl of millet porridge and a cage of at buns were placed on the table. She picked up one and took a bite, then frowned.
Too tired! And the **** she hates!
She couldn't help but miss the crystal crab roe buns made by Chef Li of Su Wangfu. Fresh but not greasy, refreshing and silky.
Swallowed, then drank the millet porridge in resignation.
well! As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to simple. She has returned to before liberation!
Scanned the decorations in the room again, tsk! It's really not pleasing to the eye!
Find out the five hundred taels of silver bills that have not been ward in her arms, and sigh deeply again. In her previous life, the huanghuali wood babu bed in her room was worth seven or eight hundred taels.
She couldn't help complaining about the unfairness of fate. In the story books, rebirth is all about changing fate and revenge, but she feels that she has reached the pinnacle of her life!
If she can, she just wants to yell at the **** of fate:
Please leave the opportunity to those in need, thank you!
…
On the other side, in the main courtyard of the Yongchang Hou Mansion, Mrs. Li received an invitation from the palace. Next month, the empress will hold a flower viewing banquet, inviting the family mbers of officials of the fourth rank and above in Beijing to co to the palace for a small gathering.
In fact, she was looking at the girl for the prince and King Su.
Ms. Li put down the invitation card, and said to Shen Mingjiao who was fiddling with various hairpin and ring jewelry:
"Duke Yasukuni's Mansion has always respected the rules. You and Mr. Pei are about to get engaged, so don't go to this palace banquet."
Knowing that her daughter loves to go out, she comforted her: "Don't worry, when you marry into the Yasukuni Mansion, there will be more banquets like this."
Shen Mingyan nodded obediently, "Mom, just take a few cousins!"
Seeing that her daughter is rarely so obedient and docile, Li Shi felt relieved, "My mother's Yan'er has grown up, this woman should be obedient and docile, so that she can be liked by her husband's family..."
Shen Mingyan responded obediently on the surface, but she didn't care about it in her heart.
There are many docile and well-behaved won in the capital, but there are few who can win the favor of their husbands.
After nagging her daughter, Mrs. Li thought of sothing, and reluctantly ordered the big maid, Cui Liu: "Go, tell the fourth girl that there will be a banquet in the Moon Palace next month, and let her prepare well, so as not to disgrace the Hou family."
Shen Mingyan raised her head in surprise, "Fourth sister is going too?"
Ms. Li waved her hand helplessly, "Yes! Mrs. Pei specially sent soone to tell to bring four girls to the palace banquet,"
She complained dissatisfied: "Didn't you say that she was clearly saying that I treated the niece next door harshly? Besides, this marriage was originally yours. If it hadn't been for the troubles of the Pei family, how could you get the fourth girl? Now the Pei family is looking back to the old days. Glory, naturally she doesn't want her son to marry an orphan?"
"Oh! You future mother-in-law! You look gentle and kind, but you actually have more thoughts than anyone else..."
Shen Mingyan's eyes flickered slightly, rembering the look that Pei Ji gave Shen Mingjiao when she was leaving that day, she gritted her teeth, raised her head and said: "Mother, I will also go to the palace banquet next month."
…
After finally persuading her mother, Shen Mingyan went back to the courtyard and turned away the maid. He took out a lavender smoked gauze skirt from the inside of the closet, and gently brushed the soft fabric with his fingers.
After a long ti, she called the maid He Xiang: "Give this dress to Cui Liu who is beside my mother, and ask her to send it to the Fourth Sister's Rose Garden in the na of my mother, saying that it is the dress to be worn on the day of the palace banquet. "
…
In the rose garden, Haitang happily sent Cui Liu away, holding up the purple skirt, she couldn't help but click her tongue in admiration: "Wow! Such a beautiful skirt, the girl must look good in it!"
Shen Mingjiao stretched out her slender index finger, and tapped the little girl's eyebrows: "If you like it, I'll give it to you."
Haitang shook her head, and said solemnly: "Only girls can wear beautiful clothes."
Shen Mingjiao felt warm in her heart, she knew that this was not a complint.
She stared at the gorgeous dress in front of her, her eyes gradually blurred.
In her previous life, because of this palace banquet, her fate was completely changed.
