Chapter 288： Lu Siqian

Chapter 288 Lu Siqian

Qin Jing is already married.

Gu Mingda has reached middle age again.

Shen Changfeng is a well-known playboy.

Although these three people had extraordinary faces, the unmarried ladies ultimately focused most of their attention on Lu Siqian.

Lu Siqian is the grandnephew of Princess Qi from her natal family, the second son of Yongchang Houfu, and is now also at Baiyun Academy.

Those who can stay in Baiyun Academy are all learned people.

In addition, he was now standing with Gu Mingda, a new academician, and Qin Jing, a prospective Jinshi, which actually gave the ladies the illusion that Lu Siqian's knowledge was on par with the first two.

It was as if Lu Siqian would be able to go ashore in the next round of imperial examinations.

Under such circumstances, many noble ladies secretly took note of Lu Siqian's appearance and included him in their consideration list.

When Shen Ling saw Lu Siqian, her face immediately darkened, and that nauseating feeling came over her again.

Niu Niu took Shen Ling's hand and asked, "Sister Ling, do you feel uncomfortable again?"

Shen Ling forced a smile on her face and shook her head.

The farewell over there came to an end, and several men turned back to look at their female relatives.

Niu Niu was not constrained by the demands of those noble girls. After looking at each other, she immediately let go of her companions' hands and threw herself into Gu Mingda's arms like a baby swallow in the forest.

Gu Mingda also happily picked up his daughter: "Have you eaten enough today?"

Niu Niu touched her belly and couldn't help but burped: "The noodles are delicious and the pastries are also delicious. I ate a lot!"

Gu Mingda couldn't help laughing.

The young men and women participating in the poetry meeting on the side felt envious when they saw the close relationship between Gu Mingda and his daughter.

I don't know when the trend of "caring for grandchildren but not children" emerged in the capital. What followed was that fathers and sons and fathers and daughters, although they were blood relatives, were not close to each other.

The son can often receive instruction from his father, but the daughter may not see her father once for ten days and a half.

Gu Mingda thanked Shen Ling again for taking good care of Niu Niu.

"Master Gu, you're welcome. I really have never seen a better child to take care of than Niu Niu." Shen Ling said.

Shen Changfeng also said from the side: "Taking care of Guobao is what she should do. Master, you don't need to thank her."

As an elder brother, Shen Changfeng is not wrong to say such things.

But Lu Siqian on the side suddenly said: "Taking care of children sounds easy, but in fact it is quite complicated. People who are not careful will not be able to do it. Brother Shen said this, but it erased Miss Shen's contribution."

Lu Siqian turned to Shen Ling and smiled tenderly.

At this time, the noble ladies on the side, after hearing these words, felt even more favorable towards Lu Siqian: not only was he handsome, he was also gentle and considerate, and knew how difficult it is to be considerate of others!

Shen Ling knew about Lu Siqian's affair with his wife, but she just felt bored when she heard such intimate words.

"Brother, teach my sister, I'll just accept it, I don't need you to worry about it." Shen Ling replied with a cold face.

Lu Siqian didn't expect Shen Ling to have such a temper. There was only a moment of astonishment on his face, and soon he turned into the gentle and gentle gentleman again. He bowed his hands and said, "Miss Shen, please forgive me, it's me who's causing trouble."

When Lu Siqian made such a fuss, the ladies who were watching couldn't help but look at Shen Ling with reproachful eyes.

Shen Ling didn't bother to care about what others said. She was tired of looking at Lu Siqian even more. After cursing "sanctimonious" in her heart, she got into her carriage. Lu Siqian's eyes darkened.

Shen Changfeng didn't have a good look on Lu Siqian, but he still remembered his master's teachings and could not express his emotions or anger, so he suppressed his disgust and said to Gu Mingda: "Master, my sister seems to be tired, I will send her back first. "

Niuniu, on the other hand, asked in a low voice: "Don't you want to thank brother?"

Shen Changfeng was stunned for a moment, then leaned into Niu Niu's ear and whispered: "Your sister Ling is not very happy. I will send her back before coming back."

Gu Mingda said: "Shopkeeper Luo and I still have something to talk about, please take your time."

Gu Mingda nodded towards Qin Jing and Lu Siqian, then turned around and entered the Xianyue Tower with his daughter in his arms.

Qin Jing also said goodbye.

In an instant, the area around Lu Siqian was empty. He had been watching a few of them talk for a while, but now they all disappeared as Lu Siqian joined. It was inevitable that people would have the illusion that Lu Siqian was unpopular.

The young men snickered at Lu Siqian's embarrassment, but the young ladies looked at Lu Siqian distressedly several times.

When they returned to Xianyue Tower, Gu Mingda didn't ask for shopkeeper Luo. Instead, he randomly asked for a private room and waited there for Xie Xingchuan to pick them up.

He asked his daughter in a low voice: "You all don't seem to like Lu Gong. Your Shen brothers and sisters just barely have the word 'hate' carved on their foreheads. Why is that?"

After hearing Niuniu talk about what happened before, Gu Mingda couldn't help but sigh: "At the poetry meeting earlier, this boy from the Lu family seemed to be talented and his poems were good, but he didn't expect that he would do such a thing in private. , which is a pity.”

Niuniu said: "Dad, what you said is a bit strange. What a pity for you. Is it because you think he is good-looking that you can learn well?"

Gu Mingda nodded and said: "My face is like a crown jewel, but it's a pity that I do such a shady thing."

Niu Niu was young and always had strange ideas. She said, "If you look good, you can't do bad things? Isn't it a pity for ugly people to do bad things?"

Gu Mingda was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, he touched his precious daughter's little head and said, "Bao Bao is right, I am narrow-minded. Anyone who does bad things is something to be regretted, but I judge people by their appearance. "

On the Shen family's carriage, Shen Ling was still sulking.

Shen Changfeng coaxed: "Okay, okay, you won't marry him anyway, why are you unhappy because of his few words? Don't make yourself angry."

Although Shen Ling knew this, he still said: "He clearly set up an outer room outside and deliberately came in front of me to show off. This is because he is judging me for being as shallow as others, because he can be tempted by just saying a few words. Isn’t he going to marry?”

Shen Changfeng's head was full of questions.

The man was careless and asked in a low voice: "Ah Ling, are you thinking too much? He only said a few words to you. Does he have so many plans?"

Shen Ling glared at her brother and said, "You have such a beautiful face in vain! If you were like him, would you worry about finding a wife?"

Shen Changfeng was scolded unpreparedly and coaxed: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this person. Since you don't like him, then look at others. You are only fourteen years old now. You can always Find a good one.”

When Shen Changfeng said this, he suddenly frowned and said, "I remember someone who seemed to be fourteen years old..."

Shen Ling was so frightened that she interrupted on the spot and said, "The people you remember are just the bad friends from the past. I don't want to marry a playboy."

Shen Changfeng said in a good temper: "Okay, okay, then I don't want to, and I'm not in a hurry to get married. At worst, I will support you for the rest of my life."

Shen Ling couldn't help laughing: "If I really rely on my brother to support me, I'm afraid I'll have to drink the northwest wind."

Compared with the harmony between the Shen brothers and sisters, the carriage in the Duke Xian's mansion is now a bit gloomy.

Qin Jingshu got on her brother's carriage first, and now there were only two siblings in the carriage.

"Brother, can you do me a favor?" Qin Jingshu asked cautiously.
