Chapter 241: Don’t judge a person by his appearance!
"Okay, I have nothing else to do anyway, so I might as well go to the Shen Mansion to have some fun. I heard that there is a huge lotus pond in the Shen Mansion. I wonder if Madam Shen can take me to have a look."
"Of course there is no problem. Miss Ning, please come this way. If you have time, why not come to our house and enjoy the scenery together?" Wang is one year older than Xiong, and the two call each other sisters.
Xiong agreed with a smile.
[Tong'er, since the lake in the Shen Mansion is the place where the accident will happen in the future, I will find a way to make the Shen Mansion fill up all the lakes today.]
[However, calming the lake also means safety. The source of all disasters is people. If we want to completely solve this matter, we still have to deal with the Jiang family. ]
The system started to praise Ning Zhiyi again, [Oh my god, whose host is so smart? Ah, it's mine, hehe! ]
After playing tricks, the system started to talk about serious matters. [Jiang family is easy to deal with, but the main problem is that it will involve the people behind Jiang family. I don’t want you to be in danger. ]
These words were spoken to Wang. Wang understood the system's meaning and decided to handle everything herself, not letting Ning Zhiyi step forward. This way, even if the Jiang family and the imperial concubine wanted to retaliate, it would only be directed at her.
[Anluo Tong'er, I'm not afraid of them. Besides, we are on opposite sides, so it doesn't matter if we offend them or not.]
"Sister, eat it!"
"eat!"
The two brothers held the pastries in front of Ning Zhiyi. She took one in each hand and then took another pastry from the table and handed it to the two brothers.
"Be good, you guys eat too."
Shen Mu had not returned home yet. Waiting for him at the door were Wang's eldest daughter and second son. The girl was fifteen years old and very graceful, and the boy was only thirteen years old. He looked very similar to Shen Mu, and was a truly elegant gentleman.
The two stood at the door waiting, and when they saw the Shen Mansion's carriage approaching from the alley, the girl's frown relaxed.
Wang and the others got off the carriage, and Shen's siblings greeted them, "Mother, I greet the Madam."
Shen Yueli, the little eunuch whose legs were held by his younger brothers, looked at his mother in confusion. What was going on?
"This is Miss Ning, a distinguished guest of our family. Miss Ning, this is my eldest daughter Yueli, and this is my eldest son Huaixing."
Shen Yueli was fine. No matter how surprised she was, she managed to control her facial expression. However, her brother Shen Huaixing failed to control his expression. He burst into laughter the first time he saw Ning Zhiyi.
"Mom, this black egg is a girl? Are you kidding your son?"
Wang covered her face. The husband she married was ambitious and not interested in women. He had both a son and a daughter. His daughter was dignified and well-mannered and well-known in the capital. His parents-in-law were kind and generous, his sisters-in-law were harmonious, and the relationship between aunts and sisters-in-law was even more harmonious.
If there is only one thing that gives her a headache, it is probably her eldest son!
As for my son, he can also eat and he enjoys everything he eats.
The Shen family is synonymous with a "reliable" family in the capital. Both men and women have wise and virtuous people working outside. But her eldest son is like an adopted child, with a quirky personality and is incompatible with the Shen family.
If his face wasn't 50% similar to Shen Mu's, she would really suspect that her child had been switched.
Shen Yueli gave her brother an elbow with a smile on her face and said in a low voice: "If you do this again, I will tell Dad!"
Shen Huaixing finished his work in a second, transforming from a carefree boy into a refined and polite young man, and greeted several people one by one.
[Wow, wow, this guy changes his expression faster than me, what a talent, we are both talented!]
System: [Host, why do you mention yourself when you praise others? Do you want to praise Shen Huaixing or yourself? ]
Ning Zhiyi's voice was full of self-righteousness, "Of course I want to praise myself. You can praise others at any time, but praising yourself is different. You have to seize every moment to praise yourself!"
Wang family members: ...
Shen Yueli and Shen Huaixing looked at Ning Zhiyi with curiosity. This was their first close contact with Ning Zhiyi since they learned about the "strange thing".
She was indeed as interesting as the rumors said.
Because the Shen family has a strict family tradition, no matter whether it is Ning Zhiyi who had done "absurd" things before, or Ning Zhiyi who is now frequently reported to have "strange things", none of the Shen family members have said or spread any remarks that are unfavorable to Ning Zhiyi.
Now the brother and sister are only curious about Ning Zhiyi, especially the two leg pendants, which follow Ning Zhiyi closely.
"Come, sister will hold Sanlang."
Little baby Shen Huaian suddenly hugged Ning Zhiyi's legs tightly, sticking out his little butt and trying to crawl onto her, looking like he was extremely afraid of being carried away.
Seeing him resisting so much, Shen Yueli could only turn her gaze to her fourth brother, "Silang?"
Shen Huaijia glanced at his sister, then at his brother and Ning Zhiyi, and decisively turned to face Ning Zhiyi, with his butt facing his dear sister.
Shen Yueli was confused. Is this still the brother who had to be kissed and hugged by his sister before going out in the morning?
You don't want her anymore?
These two little rascals!
However, she did not resent Ning Zhiyi for stealing her brother's love, nor did she think that her brother was being disrespectful to her by not letting her hug him. Instead, she felt that the fact that Ning Zhiyi was loved by her brothers showed that she was an excellent girl.
Shen Huaixing saw that neither of the two little guys was willing to leave Ning Zhiyi. He was worried that she felt annoyed but was too embarrassed to say it, so he reached out and picked up Shen Huaijia.
"Shiro, come and hold me."
Shen Huaijia pouted in grievance, pursed her rosy little lips, looked at her brother fiercely, and clenched her little fists tightly.
"Ah, sister, hold me." Seeing his younger brother being held by his older brother, Shen Huaian also wanted to be held by Ning Zhiyi. The child's innocent big eyes curved up, and his mouth opened wide because of happiness, saliva flowing out unconsciously, and he raised his hands to ask for a hug.
Seeing that the Shen family had no objection, Ning Zhiyi's face flashed with surprise. She had wanted to hug the soft and fragrant baby for a long time, "Okay, sister will hold you."
He squatted down, took out a soft handkerchief, carefully wiped the little girl's chin, and then held her in his arms.
Shen Yueli, who was about to wipe her brother's mouth, paused and looked at Ning Zhiyi in surprise. She felt even more fond of her. Several people from the Wang family also noticed this. Wang paused and looked at Ning Zhiyi deeply. She felt more and more that the rumors were not credible.
"Haha, sister smells good!" Shen Huaian's loud laughter attracted Shen Huaijia's attention. The little guy looked at Ning Zhiyi without blinking, his eyes full of "Sister, please hug me!"
"Brother stinks!" Shen Huaixing noticed that his brother's little body was moving towards Ning Zhiyi, so he hugged him tightly. Unexpectedly, the little guy directly said, "He stinks!"
Shen Huaixing's heart was broken into eight pieces.
"Come, sister is strong, let me hold you both." Ning Zhiyi bent her arms and let Shen Huaian sit in her arms. With her other hand, she held Shen Huaijia over, holding a baby in each hand, very easily.
There is no prominent family in Beijing who doesn't know about Ning Zhiyi's great strength. Seeing her relaxed expression, Shen Huaixing admired her and said, "Amazing! I admire you!"
"I wonder if Miss Ning is willing to accept disciples. Do you think I have the honor to be your disciple?"
Looking at Shen Huaixing's appearance, Ning Zhiyi thought of the Second Prince and Su Yunzheng, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance!
