Zhong Niangzi Wanfu

Chapter 2 First Meeting
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the midsummer of July. Yong'an City, the capital of Danzhou, is extremely lively. Hawkers are selling their goods in the streets and alleys. .

The two women got the affordable food and walked back proudly.

"Mr. Chen, have you heard? Miss Zhong came to stay in the house this time. The reason is that she was disowned by Tan Lin's You family." The old woman, whose face was pockmarked, grabbed her companion and whispered.

"What, broke off the engagement?" Mrs. Chen lost her voice. Suddenly she felt that she had made a mistake. She quickly covered her mouth and looked around. After confirming that no one was paying attention, she quickly asked, "Mrs. Ma, where did you know? What about the third brother of the You family and the Zhong family? The two girls are childhood sweethearts, and the marriage between Zhong You and his family has long been finalized, so don’t try to coax me."

Mrs. Ma snickered twice and said firmly: "How dare I coax you, my old sister? This matter has been blocked until now because the host's daughter did not allow talents to be passed on. It was my niece who said it when she came from Wuding City to visit relatives a few days ago that I found out. The third brother of Yue You's family has already got married."

"It has been spread in Wuding City for a long time that Miss Zhong Er came to our Wen Mansion because she couldn't escape. Thinking of the friendship between our eldest daughter and her since they were young, I came to the Mansion to take a break."

"Really?" Mrs. Chen was half convinced. The two of them turned into Fengen Lane, and the mansion with a plaque with the word "Wen Mansion" suddenly appeared in front of them.The two hurriedly kept silent and entered the house through the side door at the corner.

The willow trees in the front yard of Wenfu are towering, and the Yingri lotus in the lotus pond is undefeated, stretching its flower branches in full bloom.

Beside the lotus pond, Zhong Lan and Wen Shu sat boredly on the swings under the shade of the trees.

Zhong Lan couldn't help but sigh softly: "Uncle Wen won't let us play Cuju in the courtyard, so we can only stay here in a daze."

"Wen Yi is going to take the provincial examination next month, and my father is very nervous now. Have you forgotten that last time we secretly took him to cuju, and was punished by my father for copying the historical records?" Wen Shu blinked her peachy eyes angrily. He said, raising the round fan at hand and patting her head.

"Why don't we go fishing in the pond? We'll be quieter." Zhong Lan became interested when he saw the red carp in the pond, grabbed the fan and threw it aside.

"You can save it." Wen Shu rolled her eyes and said, "If you want to copy the book, just say so. I don't want to be punished again."

Zhong Lan was discouraged again, lay back on the grass and complained: "I wish Wen Yi won three yuan in a row and became the prime minister, but don't make the whole Wen Mansion tremble again, and don't let us be restrained like this anymore."

"Hey, let's borrow Sister Lai's good words." A young man chuckled.

The two looked over after hearing the sound, and saw a young man in a green shirt not far away standing in the dazzling sunshine and waving to this side.

The young man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. A maroon hairband ties his dark hair into a neat high ponytail. He wears a sapphire gown and black climbing boots. He has a pair of passionate peach blossom eyes that are very similar to Wen Shu's and smiles. Just standing there is as bright as the sun.

It was the second young master whom the entire Wen family doted on like a treasure, Wen Shu's younger brother Wen Yi who was about to take the provincial examination.

"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, have you finished reviewing your books?" Wen Shu rolled her eyes at Wen Yi, "This is far away from your yard, we are all hiding here, if you don't study hard, don't hurt us anymore. "

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Wen Yi crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow. He turned sideways and tilted his chin towards the young man in blue shirt behind him. "I'm not being lazy. I'm just taking Brother Jie to see my father."

Seeing someone standing behind Wen Yi, Wen Shu and Zhong Lan looked at each other and stood up to greet him.

Although the appearance of the young man behind Wen Yi is not as flamboyant as Wen Yi's, which makes people feel amazing at first sight, but his face is like a crown jade, with a fresh and handsome appearance, he is a delicate and gentle young man.

His eyebrows are gentle and delicate, his skin is fair, and none of his facial features are outstanding individually, but together they are unexpectedly harmonious, and he has the standard appearance of a handsome scholar.

He is about the same age as Wen Yi, but his face is less childish and more calm and humble. He is wearing a sapphire blue moire gauze gown, his dark hair is neatly tied in a silk scarf, and he stands there in an orderly manner. It is as pleasing to the eye as the magnolia blossoms blooming on the jade tree in the wind.

"Sister Shu, Zhuang'an." The young man in blue shirt stepped forward and nodded to Wen Shu, then glanced at Zhong Lai, and said with a slight smile, "Sister Zhuang'an."

Zhong Lan looked at him, slightly stunned, and quickly returned the greeting.

"I've long heard that Brother Feng is coming. The guest room should be well prepared. You can stay here with peace of mind." Wen Shu looked at the young man and said with a smile. "Thank you, Sister Shu, Shen Feng is sorry for bothering you." The young man nodded and smiled back.

"Okay, let's go. Let's save the two sisters from saying we're not doing our jobs properly." Wen Yilang smiled and pulled Shen Fie away.

Wen Shu looked at the backs of the two young men and said slowly: "I forgot to tell you about this. That is Wen Yi's classmate, Shen Feng from Taiming City in Danzhou. The Shen family and my family are old acquaintances. This is The first time I came to Yong'an was to take part in the provincial examination with Wen Yi."

After a while, Wen Shu noticed that Zhong Lan was speechless, so she touched her with her elbow and said angrily: "Did you listen to me?"

Zhong Lan came back to his senses and smiled: "Of course I heard it, but I just felt that I had some affinity with him, so I just took a few more glances."

"Isn't it, Zhong Yan?" Wen Shu was startled, and blinked her eyes, "You fell in love with him just after seeing him?"

"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Zhong Lan quickly waved his hand and hugged the person next to him, "Go and fish."

"Don't go, don't go. Daddy will say it again when he sees it." Wen Shu shook her head quickly, "I asked the girls to prepare ice tea. Let's go back to the house and have a rest."

The two returned to the room.

"Actually, I think Brother Shen is quite a nice person. Although the Taiming Shen family is not as good as the Tan Linyou family now, it is a well-established family and can support you." Wen Shu put down the tea bowl.

"With his talent and learning, next year's Jinshi will be no problem, and he will definitely help you slap that bastard You in the face."

Wen Shu couldn't get angry and spat again: "What the hell, she broke off Qingmei's marriage in order to marry a dragon and a phoenix. She didn't even give up her face. I really blinded my aunt before."

Looking at Wen Shu, who was still aggrieved by the annulment of her engagement, Zhong Lan couldn't help but pinch her red cheeks: "Okay, you always advised me not to be angry for someone like him who doesn't deserve it. Why are you getting angry instead?"

"I know." Wen Shu took a long breath, turned her eyes to Zhong Lan again, raised her hand to hold Zhong Lan, "But to be honest,"

"You have to make plans for yourself. The You family's divorce has caused quite a stir. Although Mrs. Wang of the You family has clarified that the divorce is none of your business, Zhong Lan, the world is still more difficult for women today. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get married in the future. There will be an impact.”

"Don't be afraid." Zhong Lan patted Wen Shu's hand, "My family still has such a large farm industry. If it doesn't work, I will recruit a son-in-law. If it doesn't work again..."

She turned her eyes and said with a wicked smile: "You are the one who will support me."

Wen Shu twitched the corner of her mouth and sneered: "Are you planning on auntie? Be careful I let you sleep on the street."

"Sleeping on the street? Then we both want to go together." Zhong Lan nonchalantly handed the tea bowl to his girl Chang Huan behind him, "The ice tea you and Yun Le made this time is much better than last time. Let's go again Help me fill a bowl."

"Miss Lai, please forgive me. I'll let the second master deliver the remaining girls. There are no more." Yun Le, the first-class female servant in Wenshu's courtyard, stuck out her tongue.

"Okay." Zhong Yan put down the tea bowl with a lot of enthusiasm, and his eyes fell on the bowl of iced tea in front of Wen Shu.

"Want to eat?" Wen Shu looked at the brightness in her eyes with disgust, "Take it and take it."

"you are the best!"
