Chapter 506 - 506 Chang Zaiqing (1)

506 Chang Zaiqing (1)

This was the first time someone had visited Shen Xin’s family in their new house since they returned to the capital. Luo Xueyan was sitting in the central room and talking to a young woman.

When Shen Miao arrived, Luo Xueyan was drinking tea with that woman. It was unknown what they were talking about, but Luo Xueyan actually looked very happy. The two of them chatted happily, not even noticing that Shen Miao was here.

When Luo Tan, who was eating snacks at the side, saw Shen Miao, she greeted her warmly, “Cousin, there’s a new snack with milk today. Do you want to try it too?”

Shen Miao smiled and shook her head. She walked to Luo Xueyan’s side and asked, “Mother, this is…”

The young woman quickly stood up. She was wearing bean-green clothes, and there was no extra jewelry on her body. There was only a wooden hairpin loosely inserted into her bun and a plain silver bracelet on her wrist. This could be considered a shabby outfit, but this woman had a faint scholarly aura. Although she was only considered not bad-looking, she had a graceful aura that made people find her likable.

“She is the daughter of your grandfather’s benefactor. Her name is Chang Zaiqing. Jiaojiao, you have probably never seen her before.” Luo Xueyan smiled and said, “Sister Chang, this is my daughter, Jiaojiao.”

Shen Miao smiled and nodded at her. “Auntie Chang.”

Luo Xueyan pulled Chang Zaiqing to sit down and asked Shen Miao to sit down with her. She smiled and said, “Auntie Chang doesn’t sound right. Sister Chang is still so young. Calling her Auntie is not appropriate. If Sister Chang doesn’t tell me her age, I’ll think she’s not much older than Jiaojiao. Even if Jiaojiao calls you Sister, I don’t think anyone will find it strange.”

“Madam, don’t make fun of me,” Chang Zaiqing said with a smile.

Luo Tan looked at Shen Miao with a smile. “Cousin Miao, since Auntie Chang is in the capital, she can come over often in the future. I heard that she likes to play chess and read. I don’t know much about chess, but you will have a playmate in the future.”

Shen Miao smiled. Luo Tan had always been a straightforward person. Perhaps the people of the Luo family were all so straightforward. For example, Luo Xueyan and Luo Tan were all warm-hearted and hospitable. Shen Miao looked up at Chang Zaiqing opposite her. Although that was the case, it was not easy to please Luo Xueyan, especially because the Luo family were all generals. Generals and civil servants had never been compatible with each other. The more straightforward Luo Xueyan and Luo Tan were, the more impatient they were with people who liked to read and write. However, in less than half a day, Luo Xueyan and Chang Zaiqing called each other sisters and liked Chang Zaiqing very much. Shen Miao was alerted and her gaze turned cold.

Seeing that Shen Miao did not speak, Luo Xueyan held her hand and said, “Jiaojiao, why is your hand so cold? It’s been getting cold outside recently. It’s better not to catch a cold.”

Jingzhe and Gu Yu lowered their heads guiltily. After being informed that there was a guest, Shen Miao rushed over before she even had time to rest. Luo Xueyan did not know that Shen Miao had gone to Princess Ming’an’s place today.

“Winter is coming, so it’s naturally very cold. My hometown has a medicine pouch that contains some spices that can ward off colds. When I rest at night, I hang it at the head of the bed. If Fifth Miss doesn’t mind, I’ll make a few and send them over,” Chang Zaiqing said with a smile.

“Sister Chang, you can even make that?” Luo Xueyan smiled. “It’s said that the girls from Liuzhou are ingenious. I’ve never seen them before, but now that I see Sister Chang, I know it’s true. Unlike the girls in my family…” She glanced at Luo Tan and Shen Miao and sighed helplessly.” Not to mention medicine pouches, they don’t even know how to embroider a handkerchief. “
