Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 49 Shen Jinglan

Li Ling came out of the inner courtyard. Adjutant Liang Jin and his entourage Ling Xiao had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing Li Ling finally come out, Ling Xiao quickly led the horse and said with a smile: "Master, you have come out. Mr. Liang is here." I've been waiting for you for an hour."

 Li Ling said to Liang Jin: "I've kept you waiting for a long time."

Liang Jin clasped his fists at Li Ling, but his face could not conceal his anxiety: "Master, let's leave quickly. Aren't you going to review the cavalry today? If it's later, we'll miss the time."

Li Ling took the reins of the horse, got on the horse neatly, and the two good horses galloped one after another, and disappeared in the dusk in a moment.

There were not many affairs in the house today, and Jingshu had already taken care of everything before lunch time. She was about to take Ziyun back when the lady at the second door came in and replied: "Madam, come from outside." I got two young ladies, saying they are your natal sisters."

Jingshu's almond-shaped eyes lit up, she looked at Ziyun, and said happily: "Could it be that Lan'er and Xuan'er are here?"

Ziyun smiled and said: "It must be the second young lady and the third young lady."

With that said, the master and servant hurried out and headed towards the gate.

Jingshu went out and saw her carriage parked at the gate. She couldn't wait to call out, "It's Lan'er, Xuan'er, right?"

The people in the car heard Jingshu's voice and hurriedly poked their heads out of the car. Ziyun hurriedly stepped forward to help the two girls out of the car. The two girls, one big and one small, called: "Sister." They walked towards each other together. Jingshu walked over happily.

Although the two younger sisters are both children of the concubine Wang, Jingshu, the eldest sister, has always had a close relationship with them.

Jingshu took the hands of her two younger sisters and said with a smile: "You are coming, why don't you come and let me know in advance, so I can be prepared."

Second Miss Shen Jinglan said with a smile: "The two of us just thought of coming to visit my sister last night. We informed our parents this morning and came out."

Jingshu said angrily: "It turns out you didn't miss me, it was just a temporary idea."

Third Miss Shen Jingxuan shook Jing Shu's arm and said coquettishly: "Why do you say that? I miss my sister every day. Since my sister got married, my family is so boring."

Jingshu touched her head and said, "Come on, let's go in and talk."

Jingshu led her two younger sisters into the Zhenguo Duke’s Mansion.

With brown bricks and green tiles, towering buildings, pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, the scenery is all exquisite as you move around.

Shen Jingxuan was only twelve or thirteen years old, and she was still a child at heart. She had never seen such a hairpin family style in her daily life. After entering the house, her little eyes were a little tired. As she walked, she kept pestering Jingshu and said: " Sister, is that pavilion on the lake called Water Pavilion? Sister, what is that green pavilion for? Sister, sister, what kind of flower tree is that tree with red flowers?"

Jing Shu took the trouble to answer her young sister's innocent curiosity, but Shen Jinglan on the side felt that her sister was so embarrassed. She glared at her and said, "Don't act like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. When I came here, I What did I tell you?"

Seeing that the second sister's tone was not kind, Shen Jingxuan quickly closed her mouth, but her eyes filled with tears of grievance, and she looked at the eldest sister eagerly.

Jingshu advised: "Xuan'er is still young, why are you so harsh on her?"

Shen Jinglan said angrily: "Sister, you always spoil her."

Shen Jinglan has a fierce temper, and Shen Jingxuan of course prefers the eldest sister with a gentle temperament. She held Jingshu's hand tightly and muttered: "It's better for the eldest sister."

Although the voice was soft, it did not escape Shen Jinglan's ears. She rolled her eyes hard, turned her head and muttered: "What a good-for-nothing."

After entering Qingfeng Garden, Jingshu took her two younger sisters into the main room. As soon as you enter the door, there is a white jade screen with a pattern of flowers inlaid with gold. It reflects the scorching sunshine outside and exudes a radiant brilliance. It is so majestic. After walking around the screen and entering the outer room, Jingshu greeted her two sisters to sit down, while Ziyun was busy serving tea and fruits.

Shen Jingxuan was dazzled after entering this gorgeous room, and Shen Jinglan, who always prided herself on her aloofness, couldn't help but look at it greedily.

There is a large red kiln plate on the red sandalwood shelf at the door. There are dozens of crystal clear and exquisite Buddha hands in the plate. There is a white jade chime hanging on the shelf next to it. On the wall is a painting by a famous artist and dozens of famous people. calligraphy.

Shen Jinglan sat facing the inner room, and the antique pear wood dressing table in the inner room came into view. There were two jewelry boxes with red lacquered plum blossoms on the dressing table. On one box was a big hairpin with purple and gold flowers and nine tails, Luan and Phoenix. Even from such a distance, she could still clearly feel the fragrance emanating from the hairpin. Dazzling light.

　　It made her eyes sore.

"Second sister, second sister!" Shen Jingxuan called several times before calling Shen Jinglan back.

Shen Jinglan turned her head and saw Ziyun standing beside her holding a fragrant tea. She looked at her with a smile and said, "What is the second lady thinking? She is so lost in thought."

Shen Jinglan quickly took the tea and said with an embarrassed smile: "I didn't think about anything. I was just dazzled by the luxury of the house my sister lived in."

Jingshu said: "This is the Dragon Well that just came down from the rain. You can try it."

Speaking of tea, Shen Jinglan said quickly: "Sister, if you didn't mention it, I would have almost forgotten. When I came here, my mother asked me to bring you a lot of white tea produced in our hometown."

Jingshu said: "It's rare that my mother still remembers my kindness."

Shen Jinglan smiled and said: "My mother will naturally keep my sister's preferences in mind." After saying that, she looked at Ziyun and said, "I put it in the car and let them pick it up later."

Ziyun replied: "Second Miss, don't worry, I will ask Danzhu to get it now."

Shen Jingxuan took two sips of tea and couldn't help but get up and walk around the room, looking around and sighing: "My brother-in-law must treat my eldest sister very well."

Hearing this, Shen Jinglan's hand holding the tea cup shook, and the tea overflowed on her hand. She quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, looked sideways at Shen Jingxuan and asked, "How do you know that your brother-in-law treats your eldest sister well? "

Shen Jingxuan played with the crystal clear crystal Buddha hand and said casually: "My brother-in-law can live in such a good house for my sister. I can tell at a glance that my brother-in-law treats my sister well."

Jingshu smiled faintly after hearing her younger sister's childish words.

Ziyun couldn't help but laugh and said: "The third young lady actually said something stupid. Our eldest lady is the prince's official wife married by three matchmakers and six betrothals, so naturally we have to live in the best place."

Shen Jingxuan also realized that although their family background was mediocre, the eldest sister was the headmistress of the famous Zhenguo Palace and the wife of the Crown Prince, so her food and clothing expenses were naturally the best.

"Does the brother-in-law have any other concubines?" Shen Jingxuan is a cautious person and is really curious about what it is like to marry into such a prominent family. Is it like what I heard, that those princes, princes, and ministers have wives and concubines in their homes? swarms.

Ziyun brought some fruit for her to eat and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, I don't have any concubines."

Shen Jinglan smiled innocently and said to Jingshu, "That shows that my brother-in-law really treats my sister really well." She said like an adult: "Then I'll be relieved."

Jingshu pulled her younger sister over and helped her tidy up the hair on her temples with a smile.

 Shen Jinglan on the side had a heavy look.
