MTL - Vicious Male Partner is a Girl-Chapter 8 Xie Orphan

On the other side, Shen Fengzhang made the quarrel with his elder brother public, and Shen Xiangpei's expression turned pale. When she heard Shen Fengzhang boasting about the steamed shad fish in a good manner, and suddenly said, "Only the salty niche, it is a little insufficient", her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and Yuan Jiulang, who was not paying attention, suddenly regained his spirits, and he let out a long sigh, "Could it be that you have tasted better salt?"

The people around suddenly burst into laughter.

Shen Xiangpei, who was standing aside, felt the gazes of other young ladies looking at her, felt uncomfortable, and was angry and angry at Shen Fengzhang. Who knows, these aristocratic families use the finest flower salt, which is as white as Kexue and has a delicious taste. How can their family use better salt than this. Didn't Shen Fengzhang make a joke when he said this? !

"Third lady, does your family use better salt than Xie's? When will you invite us to taste it?" The girl who was at odds with Shen Xiangpei took the opportunity to ask.

The little lady on the other side covered her lips with her sleeve and smiled, "Third lady, where did your family get such good salt? Could it be your elder brother who made it?"

Shen Xiangpei was thin-skinned, and being squeezed by the two of them, he couldn't stand it anymore. She looked at the disciples of the aristocratic family who were still laughing, gritted her teeth, and took a step forward, "Brother, I was just joking."

After all, she is a girl. As soon as Shen Xiangpei made a sound, those aristocratic sons who laughed at Shen Fengzhang gradually quieted down.

Seeing this, Shen Xiangpei became even more determined that she would save this situation for her second brother and the Shen family. She took a deep breath and spoke firmly.

"I just tasted this steamed shad. The fish meat is very delicious, and the salt is just right, so there is nothing wrong with it." She paused for a while, then looked straight at Shen Fengzhang, "Brother must have just got mixed up for a while, Tasted wrong, just kidding, right?"

As soon as these words came out, when the young masters of the aristocratic families looked at Shen Xiangpei, their eyes showed more and more appreciation. It's really not easy for the young lady of the Shen family, with such a stingy elder brother on the table, she has to come forward to save the situation for her elder brother.

"Hmph." Seeing that Shen Xiangpei turned the situation around with a few words, which attracted everyone's appreciation, the girl in the yellow dress who had just run out of Shen Xiangpei snorted softly, and said to her companion: "It's so irritating. She found a chance to show off again! "

Facing Shen Xiangpei's eyes full of pressure, Shen Fengzhang slowly shook his head.

"There's nothing to joke about such a trivial matter."

Seeing Shen Xiangpei's eyes widen, Shen Fengzhang wanted to laugh. Why did she think she would nod.

The original owner's reputation was already bad, but at this point, her reputation would plummet and she would become a sensational villain. When Shen Xiangpei asked this sentence, she never thought about the impact it would have on her elder brother who had always loved her. not to mention-

"The third lady has been staying in Jiankang. It may not be clear, but I heard that Xie Langjun once went to Yinping County when he was traveling. Maybe he knows that there is a kind of salt in Tuyuhun. It is crystal clear, with a mellow salt taste and no miscellaneous smell."

Whether it was Shen Fengzhang commenting on the steamed shad, or Shen Xiangpei coming out to smooth things over, the host of the banquet, the real central figure Xie Xiudu, did not pay serious attention. All his attention was on Shen Juan who had just stood up. Shen Juan's appearance always made him feel a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

At this moment, when Shen Fengzhang suddenly called him, he came back to his senses.

"Mr. Xie Lang, have you seen it before?"

With Shen Fengzhang's words, everyone looked at Xie Erlang.

Among so many people, the most nervous one was not Shen Fengzhang, but Shen Xiangpei. She tightly clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves, and her carefully manicured nails pinched her tender palms fiercely. It is unimaginable, if Xie Erlang is sure of the second brother, how she will face the eyes of everyone!

Shen Xiangpei's eyes were burning, she concealed her uneasiness, locked on Xie Erlang firmly, watched him put down his wine glass, and spoke in thought.

Suddenly Shen Xiangpei felt pain in his palm, as if the oily skin had been pinched by his nails. However, at this moment, she had no flaws in feeling sorry for the jade hand that was carefully cared for, and only one sentence echoed in her mind.

"Mr. Shen's family is right. Tuyuhun is indeed rich in a kind of big green salt. I have tasted it. Compared with the flower salt used in Dazhou, it has a different taste."

"It turns out that there really is salt in this world that tastes better than the floral salt we eat." The girl in the yellow skirt smiled happily, and deliberately raised the volume to chat with her companions, "Oh, some people are just self-righteous and think they know everything. I don’t know, she’s actually a frog in a well!”

The companion of the girl in the yellow dress covered her lips and smiled, seemingly accepting her companion's words, but a pair of beautiful eyes kept looking at Shen Xiangpei, "Some people still think that others are joking, and they don't know who is joking." She remembered someone The indifferent and decent look just now, taking care of the overall situation, I think it's too ironic.

Shen Xiangpei had already expected what would happen to her after Xie Erlang agreed with his second brother. However, when the sneering words of others really fell on her, Shen Xiangpei found that it was more unbearable than she imagined!

In fact, the only ones who really ridiculed Shen Xiangpei were those little ladies who had trouble with her on weekdays. Others, especially the men sitting on both sides of the stream, although they also looked at Shen Xiangpei a few times, they didn't show any ridicule. It's just that Shen Xiangpei has a stronger personality, and if she makes a mistake, everyone's impression of her will plummet.

In contrast, these gentlemen cared more about Shen Fengzhang.

Shen Fengzhang smiled at Yuan Jiulang, "Mr. Jiulang, is this tasting acceptable?"

The second brother Xie has come forward to affirm Shen Fengzhang, what else can he do! Losing interest, Yuan Jiulang expressed a calm expression, said a few words hastily, and returned to his seat.

"Shen Fengzhang is so lucky that he was able to talk to Xie Erlang." The young man sitting next to Yu Sanlang stared at Shen Fengzhang and said sourly, "I don't know how long she prepared and how many books she read before she found it." Big green salt from Tuyuhun."

Shen Fengzhang's performance today is very different from his flattering and submissive appearance in the past. Most of the people didn't suspect that there was a change of person, they only felt that Shen Fengzhang had been instructed by an expert to use a different way to establish a relationship with the aristocratic family.

"Isn't this a success?" Recalling Shen Fengzhang wearing a white shirt just now, with a calm and generous expression, which was affirmed by Xie Erlang, the young man who spoke just now was jealous. He rolled his eyes and looked at Yu Sanlang, "Yu Sanlang, you are so close to Mr. Shen Erlang, and Mr. Shen Erlang has an expert behind him, why didn't he tell you?"

"Is there any expert behind Shen Erlang?" Yu Sanlang frowned, "Don't guess."

The blue-shirted youth chuckled twice. Guess? If you, Yu Sanlang, didn't believe it, why did you turn down all of a sudden? On weekdays, he sips a Zhang, but now he calls him Shen Erlang?

Shen Jun, who was sitting next to Shen Fengzhang, was not as sure as the others that Shen Fengzhang did it on purpose. Firstly, he just noticed that when Shen Fengzhang ate fish, he had indeed frowned, as if he thought the taste was not enough; secondly, based on what he knew about Shen Fengzhang, Shen Fengzhang didn't have such a brain at all.

But it was also thanks to Shen Fengzhang who stood up just now.

Shen Jun picked up the jade, carefully picked out the small spines of the shad, and slowly put a small piece of pure fish into his mouth.

Tasteless.

Favored by Shen Fengzhang, the delicious fish in her description was no different from other food when Shen Jun tasted it. Shen Juan was born with a dull sense of taste. He didn't realize until he was five or six years old that food in the world does not have only one taste.

[The hero doesn't like to eat fish? 】Shen Fengzhang on the side noticed that Shen Jun only took a bite of shad and put down his chopsticks.

[The male protagonist can't spit out fish bones. 】

Shen Fengzhang suddenly realized, no wonder Shen Jun ate a lot of that bowl of whitebait soup, but the steamed shad was whole.

Without thinking too much, Shen Fengzhang picked up a piece of tender mutton with chopsticks.

On the other side, Shen Xiangpei didn't have such a good attitude. Throughout the second half of the spring banquet, she was in a trance.

Apart from Shen Xiangpei, there were several other people absent-minded at the banquet.

…

The guests attending the spring banquet left one after another. Xiao Qilang turned his head and wanted to chat with Yuan Jiulang about Shen Fengzhang's abnormality today, but found that Yuan Jiulang was holding the wine glass, his thick eyebrows were frowned, and his face was deep in thought.

"Ah Hui." Xiao Qilang pushed Yuan Zihui, "What are you thinking?"

Yuan Zihui was thinking about Shen Fengzhang. When he thought that he wanted to play tricks on the big man of the Shen family, but was interrupted by Shen Fengzhang, he felt very unhappy in every way.

After drinking the wine in his glass, Yuan Jiulang said, "A Shao, your Wei Mo is still short of a good inkstone." A malicious smile appeared in his eyes, "I will hold a banquet in a few days, Gather friends through music." Playing music is not like tasting food, he wants to see what Shen Fengzhang will do!

After understanding what Yuan Zihui meant, Xiao Qilang smiled excitedly. Seeing that Ah Hui was lost in thought again, he turned his head to look at Xie Xiudu on the other side.

The large coat was draped over Xie Xiudu's shoulders, he lowered his eyes slightly, thoughtful, the wine glass he was holding was already empty, but he didn't realize it.

"Second brother, what are you thinking?" Xiao Qilang really didn't understand, but it was just a banquet, why the people around him were all preoccupied and thoughtful.

Xie Xiudu came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a little thing." He filled up the wine, took a sip, his eyes were inadvertently revealing a little deep.

More than ten years ago, the most prominent Xie family was not their branch.

The uncle in the next room, Xie Xian, had followed Taizu when Taizu was only a Taiwei, and was the founding hero of the Zhou Dynasty. When the crown prince was abolished and plotted to rebel and kill his father, the Taizu appointed his uncle Xie Xian and two other ministers as ministers of Gu Ming before his death to assist the current supreme.

After the current Supreme Being ascended the throne, he adopted a series of measures to restrain his power, and successively executed the other two Gu Ming ministers. Uncle Xian was sitting in the important area of ​​Jingzhou at that time. Hearing the news, he sent troops to rebel, but in the end he was defeated and executed. In Uncle Xie Xian's room, more than a dozen Xie family children died because of this. This incident had a great impact on the Xie family.

When Xie Xian was so powerful, Xie Xiudu was still very young, but he was deeply impressed by this gentle-spoken uncle. Shen Juan's appearance somewhat resembled that of his uncle.

To be precise, Shen Juan looks more like his great-uncle.

Xie Xiudu held the wine glass and frowned.

Uncle Xie Xian's family, except for the married daughters, were all beheaded by the order of the present Supreme. The two married cousins, one entered the palace as a queen, and the other married as a princess, but neither of them left any children. Shen Juan's appearance, calculated based on time, is very likely to be the daughter of the first cousin and the son of Shen Yi.

If it is really the blood of Uncle Xie Xian, then Shen Jun is the only drop of Uncle Xie Xian's blood left. As the Xie family, He should save the last drop of blood for Uncle Xie Xian.

However, the Supreme Being who ordered the execution of Uncle Xie Xian's house is still there, if he finds out that there are still fish that slipped through the net...

Xie Xiudu let out a foul breath, everything was based on the fact that Shen Juan was indeed the heir of Uncle Xie Xian. The most urgent task is to find out who Shen Jun's biological mother is.
