Chapter 4: Meet Again
Shen Qiaoan raised his head and happened to meet the concerned gaze of Ji Heng, the prince of Changning.
He was six feet long, with a great appearance, and although he was a civil official, his body was much stronger than those weak scholars. Now he is in the prime of life, in his thirties, quite majestic.
"Uncle Ji." A few meters away, Shen Qiaoan called people obediently.
Ji Heng seems to be serious and not easy to get close to, but he gave her care and love when she was young, so that her childhood would not be missing because she had no father.
For her, this kindness should also be remembered for a lifetime.
Seeing her sitting peacefully on the bed, her pale face gradually became ruddy, her eyes were as bright as autumn water, looking at herself with a smile, Ji Heng's heart finally settled down.
He strode forward and touched her head with his rough palm.
"Joan, you've finally woken up, if you still have to lie down, how can I be worthy of your mother?"
The meaning of his words naturally also contained the promise of Old Marquis Ji to her maternal grandfather.
Shen Qiaoan pursed her lips, knowing this well, she raised her face, her eyebrows and eyes curved, "Let Uncle Ji worry." ”
Ji Henglang smiled, he liked Shen Qiao'an's lively personality very much.
"It's good to know, take care of your body in the future, don't scare my uncle so much, otherwise, your grandfather Ji won't let me go when he comes back."
Old Marquis Ji was sent by the emperor to the Jiangzhou area half a month ago, and now he is on his way back.
Shen Qiaoan smiled back, but his eyes looked at the group of people who followed behind him.
"Does Mrs. Shen remember us?"
Seeing her look over, the woman standing behind the left side of Changning Hou stepped forward with a smile and swaying her steps, she was surrounded by pearls and greenery, only in her early thirties, properly maintained, surrounded by a few maids and grandmothers, fragrant.
At this moment, she grabbed a handkerchief in her hand and covered her mouth, and her eyes were full of smiles.
"You've been lying down for three days, and you're worrying about us. Fortunately, God blessed, and the prince sent someone to take care of you, you finally woke up. ”
Shen Qiaoan smiled and nodded, the corners of her lips rose just right.
"Of course I remember, thank you for your concern, Joan is much better."
This richly dressed woman is the wife of the Marquis of Changning, Gu, who was born in the Marquis of Jingshun's mansion, and is the eldest daughter of the former concubine.
"Look, this lady has a really good memory, and her mouth is very sweet." Gu was born plump, sleek and sleek, knowing that Ji Heng was watching the little lady in front of him closely, so she praised vigorously, she didn't look over her head to look at Ji Heng, and the smile in her eyes did not diminish.
"I don't think the prince brought back is like a girl, but like a little fairy child next to Guanyin Bodhisattva."
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, even Ji Heng, who had always been majestic, felt comfortable all over, and the smile on his face gradually deepened, so that the atmosphere was more active.
Shen Qiaoan lowered his head with a smile on the corner of his mouth, putting on a shy appearance.
If she hadn't learned the methods of this eldest lady in her previous life, she would have been deceived by Gu's hypocrisy at this moment. Don't look at her smile when she looks at you, but I don't know how many dirty tricks are hidden under that smile.
It's just that her temperament has been trained very well by her mother and grandfather since she was a child, and her hatred for the Gu family has not been revealed at all.
The big guy laughed for a long time, but the beautiful woman standing on the other side of Ji Heng said with a smile, "Mrs. Shen has just recovered from her serious illness, let's be quiet, don't disturb the girl's purity." ”
Shen Qiaoan looked up at this time, and saw that her face was kind, and she couldn't help but feel a little familiar in her heart, and even the curvature of the corners of her lips rose even more.
This woman is the wife of Ji Zhong, the second son of Ji Lao's grandfather, Jiang Shi, and now most of the things in the Hou Mansion are in charge of the eldest lady Gu's family, and Ji Zhong is far away from home, but the position of this second lady is also extremely strong, and no one underestimates it.
She is the second daughter of the Marquis of Jiangning, and her mother is the daughter of the Zhenguo Mansion, because of this relationship, and Ji Zhong did not take a concubine because of her, her life in the mansion can be regarded as moist and smooth. In addition, she has a son and a daughter, her life is even more happy, and she is gentle and kind to people on weekdays, but she is quite a good wife, so people respect her very much.
For this reason, Gu's is not obvious on the surface, but behind the scenes, he is angry.
As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly fell silent.
Ji Heng coughed lightly a few times, and smiled slightly, "What my brother and sister said was that I ignored it." ”
"That being the case, Joan, you are so resting, your two aunts have brought a few sisters to come to see you, you talk, get acquainted with each other, go out to play in the future, and have a good look."
Shen Qiaoan naturally agreed.
After explaining a few words, Ji Heng was about to leave the house, and the Gu family and the Li family sent him out, leaving several girls of the same age as her in the room, all of whom looked at her curiously and secretly.
Shen Qiaoan didn't feel any discomfort, her current identity was the daughter of Ji Heng's old friend, born in the countryside, no wonder these famous ladies had different eyes.
She raised her face and let them look at it generously, which made them feel a little embarrassed.
The eldest girl in the lead exchanged glances with several younger sisters, and stepped forward and said, "Sister Shen, I'm Ji Qiaohui, I don't know if you remember?" On that day, my father brought you into the house, and we met. ”
