MTL - After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone-Chapter 15 The so-called blessing
Chapter 15 The so-called blessing
Shen Mingjiao looked at this funny farce, and waved her hands bored.
She is not a man, so what's the use of this scene of crying, making trouble, and hanging herself?
"enough."
Cui slapped the table, and the porcelain cup crashed.
The scene suddenly fell silent, and the third lady seemed to be so frightened that she forgot to cry.
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Mrs. Cui stared at Shen Mingjiao, and said bluntly: "Since your uncle told you the truth and you didn't listen, then I, the grandmother, order you to bring Yao'er into the mansion after you get married. side concubine."
Shen Mingjiao shook her head amusedly, what she said was really justified.
She raised her head and met Shang Cui's disgusted eyes: "Grandmother's words are interesting, people who don't know think I'm marrying a side concubine? Besides—"
She pointed to Shen Mingyao who had red eyes:
"My lord is not blind, with my face in front of me, how can I still look at other rough rubble?"
The tone is arrogant and arrogant.
With a "plop", Shen Mingyao fainted out of anger.
Cui pointed at her with trembling fingers, too angry to speak.
Shen Ji'an stared at her, "Is the fourth girl really determined not to agree?"
Shen Mingjiao made it again, playing with the round fan in her hand in boredom, and said with a half-smile: "If uncle can find someone more beautiful than me, maybe I can still consider it."
Shen Ji'an also smiled: "Don't you want to know your sister's whereabouts?"
After saying this, Shen Mingjiao, who had always been lazy and sloppy, changed her complexion, and her eyes were colder than ever.
Shen Mingjiao has a sister who is three years older than her.
Eight years ago, my father had a plague outbreak in Renzhou Prefecture. For safety, my father sent someone to send the two sisters back to Beijing. Encountered bandits on the road, in order to save her, her sister led away the crowd by herself.
In her previous life, she never gave up looking for her sister, but she found nothing.
At that moment, Shen Ji'an jumped out. Threatening her sister's whereabouts, she made various demands on her. At that time, she had already gained a firm foothold in Su Wang's Mansion, and she would try her best to satisfy any request that was not excessive. Just to find my sister as soon as possible.
But she later found out that this man had lied to her.
She stared at Shen Ji'an for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "You still have the face to mention my sister. At that time, you were clearly capable, but you didn't send anyone to look for it. If you had sent someone, maybe my sister had already been found. Now Don't you think it's ridiculous for you to blackmail me with this?"
Shen Ji'an's heart skipped a beat when she stared at her piercing eyes. How did she know?
At that time, the second brother asked him to take someone to pick up Shen Mingjiao and the sisters. When he arrived, he only saw the smashed carriage and Shen Mingjiao who was carefully covered in the grass and unconscious.
At the same time, news of his second brother's death came, so he took Shen Mingjiao back to Beijing without much hesitation.
As for Sheng Mingshu, a woman who is likely to be taken captive, even if she is found, her reputation will be damaged. If that is the case, why bother.
…
Shen Mingjiao quickly stepped out of Shou'an Hall, with the lingering anger on her face.
While passing the garden, I bumped into a person head-on. She stepped back and said "sorry". Raising her head, she saw that he was a rather delicate and handsome young man. She paused her gaze, said "I'm sorry" again, and turned to leave.
The boy stared at her blushing face, and stammered: "No...it's okay...I just walked carelessly..."
After finishing speaking, he scratched his head, "My surname is Fang, and I am a friend of the eldest son of the family. I wonder who the girl is?"
Shen Mingjiao has long been used to this kind of gaze, so she said calmly: "I am the Fourth Miss of the family."
The purpose of saying this is to tell the other party that she has a marriage contract, so as not to cause trouble in vain.
The young master was really disappointed when he heard the words, and stood there silently watching people leave.
Waiting for the others to walk away completely, he took out a light purple handkerchief from his sleeve, put it on his lips and sniffed it gently.
Shen Mingjiao, who walked away, touched her waist, evoking an inexplicable smile.
…
The mansion has been calm for the past few days, and it seems that the events of that day have been left alone.
Madam Hou asked Shen Mingjiao to go to Daxiangguo Temple to pray for blessings this day. It is an unwritten rule among the rich and powerful in the capital that women would go to famous temples to worship before they get married, praying for the harmony of husband and wife after marriage.
Shen Mingjiao got into the carriage obediently, even though she saw that Shen Mingyan, who was also about to get married, didn't go, she didn't show the slightest difference.
When I arrived at the gate of the temple, I found that there were many female relatives who came to offer incense today, and there was a car blocking the way ahead.
Mrs. Li frowned displeasedly, and asked the maid to go down to see what was going on.
Not long after, the servant girl came back and said that the one in front was General Zhongyong's wife's carriage.
Mrs. Li took a deep breath when she heard the words, said no more, and waited quietly for the carriage to pass by.
General Zhongyong once made great contributions to Daxia, and later died for the country. Only his newly married wife was left behind, and Jing and Emperor, for his merits, divided his wife into Yipin Zhenguo's wife.
Fortunately, the carriage of General Zhen Guo's Mansion passed by quickly, and several people entered the temple, and came to the main hall where they prayed for blessings. Shen Mingjiao knelt down with others and burned incense to the Buddha.
Although she does not believe in gods and Buddhas, the existence of temples has its own reasons. Since she is here, no matter what the purpose is, she should have basic respect and awe.
Turning her head, she saw a lady in her forties kneeling upright beside her. Her hair was combed meticulously, and she wore Buddhist beads on her wrist all the year round.
While Mrs. Li greeted enthusiastically at the side, after all, although General Zhongyong passed away for many years, his contacts in the court are still there.
The Mrs. Zhen Guo always smiled kindly, obviously not wanting to talk to her.
Mrs. Li was bored, and glanced at Shen Mingjiao, "Stay in the temple for one night today, and go back tomorrow morning."
Shen Mingjiao nodded obediently.
Entering the resting Zen courtyard, Shen Mingjiao wiped the sweat from her forehead, and told Haitang to get some hot water for her to take a bath.
Close the door, collapse on the chair exhaustedly, there seems to be a burst of fragrance in the breath, and then, she only feels a little hot all over,
Shen Ming sat up delicately, rushed to the door in a few steps, stretched out his hand and pushed it, only to find that the door was locked from the outside.
Her heart tightened, and she turned her head instinctively when she felt something. Just looking into a pair of blurred eyes, he found a man standing behind him at some point, and took a closer look, it was the exquisite young man he met in the garden of the Hou Mansion the other day.
Shen Mingjiao took a step back and said coldly, "Why are you here?"
The man stared at her in a daze, his misty eyes, matched with that delicate and well-behaved face, had a pitiful smell of tempting to step on shoes, he spoke in a clear voice: "Girl, help me, I feel terrible!"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to wrap Shen Mingjiao's waist.
At this moment, Shen Mingjiao seemed to hear the sound of footsteps approaching and far outside the door.
