Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 175
Lin Pei got on the side road, and didn't stop beside the Taihu Stone until the babble of singing behind him faded away.

He was not qualified to enter the garden, and his grandfather Lin Juntao was only third rank, but he was very familiar with Mr. Chen Ge's son, so he accompanied him in.

However, there was no place for him to sit when he came in, and the seats were all arranged, so his presence seemed a bit abrupt.

But even so, he still couldn't help wanting to come in and take a look. He knew that Shen Xi had come to the garden, and her shadow had been lingering in his mind for the whole time.

After three years of separation, she is completely different from the original one. She has completely changed, which amazes him but is also very strange.

Ding promised the Shen family that she would never let Shen Xin come in until she left the cabinet, so he didn't see her for several months.

He came here just to ask how she learned this skill?He and her have known each other since childhood, so why didn't he know this before?

But it's a pity that he didn't have the chance to talk to her in person.

She is like a pearl that has fallen from the dust, and now that the dust has been blown away by the wind, she suddenly shines.

When he looked at it from a distance, he felt a little ashamed, but he was obviously very confident before.

But when the people around her finally dispersed, she also moved out of the garden.Surrounded by palace guards like a forest, he couldn't get close to her!

I don't know if anyone can experience this kind of melancholy.

"Master, Mr. Chen is looking for you, shall we go there?"

The boy came to the front and reported.

He stared ahead without making a sound.

He came for her, she is not here, what else does he keep?
"Go back to Mr. Chen and say something is going on in the mansion, so I'll excuse you first."

He left the words and strode towards the gate of the garden.

Back at the mansion, there were lively voices coming from the main courtyard, he stopped to listen, it was Mrs. Ding and his aunts.

The wives of the Lin family are all good people, and they may not have a close relationship with the Ding family who is a house filler, but they are still here after a while.

He stopped and stood for a while, and inevitably changed his way to the main room.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the voices in the room quietly faded away.

Ding waved first: "Brother Pei is back?"

He nodded, smiled and bowed to a room of noble ladies: "The aunts are all here. I heard you talking from a long distance, and I don't know what you are talking about?"

The wives of the Lin family all smiled and said: "It's about Miss Shen's fight against Miss Song today.

"Miss Shen is shining brightly, and our family still has a little friendship with the Shen family. No, we were all dragged to inquire about Miss Shen's marriage just now."

her marriage?

Lin Pei's face gradually darkened, and his footsteps were a little vain.

Some of them also knew that Lin Pei often walked around Shen's house, so they got up immediately after seeing this: "It's getting late, the masters are back, I think the masters will be back soon, let's stop gossiping and say goodbye?"

Then everyone got up and filed out of the threshold.

Ding watched them disappear outside the door, and then turned her gaze back to Lin Pei: "Why are you back so early?"

Lin Pei took two steps forward, and said directly: "Sister Xi's marriage is something that the Shen family has to worry about, why is mother talking to them about this?"

Ding avoided his gaze, hung his head and flicked his sleeves, and said, "Where is there any discussion? It's just talking about what happened on the school ground today."

"That's not going to work!" Lin Pei was impatient, and his tone inevitably became serious, "The girl is spoiled and spoiled, and it's not for people to gossip behind their backs!"

"How do you speak?" Ding raised her head upon hearing the words, and her face darkened, but she turned her face away in an instant, and her momentum also weakened.

Lin Pei's gaze made her unbearable.

The flesh that fell from her own body, how could she not know what he was thinking?

This girl from the Shen family was indeed unexpected, she was originally thought to be reckless and irritable, and out of place, so she insisted that the old lady in the family would not agree.

After all, I lost some confidence in my identity as a house-filler, so I was also very negative. I just wanted to drag him and my heart became weak.

But who would have known that the real Shen Xi was not only not impetuous, but also amazed the entire capital in one fell swoop!

The Lin family is actually not that snobbish family, Lin Juntao and Shen Ruopu are even good friends, if it wasn't for Lin Pei's refusal to marry Shen Xin back then and deliberately making up the excuse of their discord, the two families would have been married long ago.

But Lin Pei is the eldest grandson after all, and the Lin family still has enough potential to make progress. It's no wonder that the old lady refused to agree to Shen Xi's original appearance.

Nowadays, people have brought down a lot of people with their own ability, even the wives of several Ge Laoshangshu's residences are asking about her, and if the Lin family is rushing to discuss marriage at this time, wouldn't they become snobs?

After this, how can Lin Juntao hold his head up in front of Shen Ruopu?

Therefore, even if Shen Xi was reborn, the old lady would not easily agree.

In this case, how can she face him?

"I told my mother a long time ago that I'm only willing to marry Sister Xi!" Lin Pei seemed to be competing with her, without any intention of compromising.

"Whether it's before today or after today, I'm only willing to propose marriage to her!"

Ding raised his forehead.

After a while, she raised her head again: "Why are you so stubborn?!"

"Because I owe her." He said with a gloomy look.

Shen Xi didn't know when Shen Ruopu returned home.

Since she turned over in the mansion, no one dared to make noise outside the Lixiang Courtyard, and the servants in the other houses would pay special attention to their words and deeds even if they passed by, so when the sedan chair came back, she had no idea what was going on in Wanrongtang.

When he fell asleep until he woke up in the morning, he had already gone out for the morning court again. Now that he has been promoted to an official rank, this minister is even more strict with himself.

When Pearl was dressing her, she smiled into the mirror and said: "Everyone inside and outside the house is talking about what happened at the school yesterday.

"Early in the morning, the eldest lady received several posts from officials and relatives, saying they wanted to visit her.

"Qiuchan has already come here in the morning. I was ordered by the elder girl to ask the girl, what should I say when I am introduced? The girl didn't get up, so the slaves told them to come back later."

After the incident on the school grounds, the few of them became more and more handsome, not to mention in the mansion, even in the palace last night, the palace people treated them very politely.

This is all thanks to their girls. They did not expect that their situation would change so much in just a few months.

Shen Xi was curious: "Who are there?"

Although she can't get married, she also wants to see who are the people who want to marry?
Since she has taken root in Dazhou, Shen Ruopu will also rise gradually. It is always beneficial for her to understand the composition of the entire official circle.

Pearl then counted on her fingers: "Yu Shangshu's wife, Zhou Qianshi's wife, Chen Shaoqing's wife..."

"Girl," Yuan Bei hastily walked in before he finished speaking, "Shopkeeper Liu of Qionghua Terrace sent someone to pick you up."
