Chapter 217 The Lady of the Shen Family
Seeing Baoying nodding with a smile, Li Sui turned his head again, and Baoying's words rang in his ears.

"This lady of the Shen family has a good temper, not like those twitchy characters. It can be said to be very interesting. On weekdays, whether in front of the Taiwei, Mrs. Taiwei, or to brothers and sisters of the same generation, the servants below are always friendly. Just joking, since you left, the mansion has not been so lively, but this Mrs. Shen is really happy with Mrs. Taiwei, and she comes and goes a lot on weekdays. People say that she is here, which can be regarded as making up for your leaving It's a pity that A Niang also has someone to talk to and amuse."

Looking back, seeing the smile on Baoying's face, Li Sui took her hand and said, "There are not many people who can make you praise me endlessly. Come on, let's join in the fun."

After finishing speaking, Li Sui took Baoying to the Jiuqu Pavilion.

Just a few steps outside the pavilion, Yang Che, who was facing the green embankment floating corridor in front of the pavilion, first saw Li Sui approaching. His face that was holding back a smile froze, but soon he was as warm as before. He joked: "No wonder the mansion is always looking resplendent and resplendent today. It turns out that a nobleman has returned."

While talking, everyone turned their heads to look over, and they naturally stood up and bowed to Li Sui. Before Li Sui could speak, Yang Che turned to Yang Zhao, who was thinking hard, and said, "Aman is a master at playing chess." , why don't you hurry up and flatter this foreign aid, losing in front of these sisters is not good."

Hearing this, Yang Zhao's eyes sparkled immediately, and he stood up with a blushing face, full of desire and embarrassment, and said: "Sister Ah Man——"

Glancing at Yang Zhao, Li Sui lowered his gaze, and saw a chessboard with a high arch in the middle and square corners polished by Hetian jade. There were twelve red chess pieces and twelve black flags each made of ivory. The chess pieces have been beaten to pieces, even one of your expensive chess pieces has been knocked down.

"Last year, the heroic appearance of the princess on the court has fascinated me for a long time. According to Sanlang's words, you are also a master at playing chess—"

At this moment, the lady from the Shen family who was sitting opposite was gearing up as if she was itching for skills: "If you are strong, you will be strong. It's fine on weekdays. Today I will let Shiro go, can you ask the princess to do me a favor and play a game again? "

The girl in front of her is holding her hair in a small bun, and in her hair is only a hairpin decorated with a gold-encrusted butterfly bird and a branch of a flower tree. It is simple but extraordinary. She has a small goose egg face that is white and tender. She was having a good time, her face was flushed with red sweat, and her eyes were full of eagerness to try. The pink peach and butterfly pattern cloud brocade skirt on her body made her face look like a peach blossom, which was extremely lovely.

"The lady has a heart, Shiro has a heart, how can I not know it?"

Li Sui stepped forward jokingly, and Yang Zhao quickly gave up his seat. When Li Sui sat down with his skirt full, and saw that the Shen family's wife was about to clean up the mess, Li Sui already smiled and raised his hand to block it, saying: "Every game is very difficult. It’s about money, if this game is over, you’re not losing money?”

After that, Li Sui smiled and said: "Just this endgame, you and I will come again, if you win, it will be Shiro's, if you lose, it will be mine, how about it?"

Hearing Li Sui's words, Yang Che looked at Yang Zhao's excited face and said with a smile, "Look, it's your elder sister Ah Man who is rich and powerful."

Upon hearing this, Li Sui turned his head to look at Yang Che and said with a nonchalant smile: "I reminded me, a gold master like you standing by the side, how can I count as me—"

After that, Li Sui smiled and looked at Mrs. Shen on the opposite side and said: "If you lose, it will be on Saburo's head, and it has nothing to do with me. I'm just a thug who doesn't need money."

Hearing this unreasonable troublesome words, Yang Che finally smiled helplessly. Seeing that the excitement was getting louder, Mrs. Shen responded with an attitude that she would not lose.

When everyone looked at the chess board almost holding their breath, Li Sui pulled out the golden hairpin from his hair, looked down at the situation on the chess board, and then lightly moved the black chess piece in front of him, and the black chess piece in front of him immediately came out in response to the clang of gold and silver, It just crossed the resistance of Gao Gang in front of him, and bounced towards the red chess standing proudly opposite.

"Ding Dang—" With a sound, Yang Zhao excitedly clapped his hands and said, "Okay, your chess has fallen."

At this moment, all the ladies exclaimed, Yang Che bowed his head and smiled, and Baoying who was sitting beside Li Sui couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, also looking honored.

On the contrary, Mrs. Shen looked at him with sudden admiration, as if she wanted to learn from her teacher.

Surrounded by all the people like this, after about an incense stick of time, the game of chess between Li Sui and Mrs. Shen came to an end. Everyone looked at the tie and were all amazed.

You know, what Yang Zhao left behind was a disastrous defeat just now, and he never imagined that he could be brought back to life under the hands of Princess Yongning.

"I have tried my best, Mrs. Shen is too powerful, I will never get this money back."

Seeing Li Sui looking over with his arms spread out, Yang Che laughed and said, "If he wants to win a round of what he sent out, unless he specially changed the rules and increased the number of yards."

This made Yang Zhao scratch his head in embarrassment, looked at Li Suishi with an unconcealable gleam in his eyes, and said, "Sister Ah Man is very strong, if I knew it earlier, I should have waited for you to help me."

Seeing Yang Zhao like this, Li Sui smiled and looked at the crowd and said: "They all know that I can't do anything else on weekdays, and I can't do less than San Lang and other gentlemen in eating, drinking and having fun."

Hearing Li Sui's self-injury, all the sisters covered their mouths and laughed lightly, but the lady Shen on the opposite side came up to hold Li Sui's hand and said: "Whether it's music, chess, calligraphy, painting, eating, drinking, or having fun, it's always something for entertainment. .”

After all, Lady Shen was not ashamed, she just threw herself on Li Sui and said: "Maybe the princess taught me how to shoot bows and play chess, and accepted me as an apprentice?"

Seeing this scene, Baoying on the side couldn't help but chuckle, and Yang Che on the side also smiled and watched the excitement.

"Sister Ah Man hasn't taught me yet, but you are one step ahead of me."

Hearing Yang Zhao muttering in a low voice pretending to be dissatisfied, Mrs. Shen gave him a "vicious" look.

"Forget it, such a beautiful lady asked for advice, how could I not agree?"

Hearing Li Sui's answer, Mrs. Shen's face suddenly burst into a jumpy smile.

"I don't know the age of Princess Fang?"

Hearing Mrs. Shen's sudden question, Li Sui didn't blame him for overstepping the rules, but responded with a smile: "When it comes to June, it will be seventeen."

"Then I'm still a little older than you, I'm in the first month of this year—"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "Then I will be like San Lang and they call you Ah Man?"

Seeing the lovely smiling face in front of him, Li Sui smiled and nodded.

"It just so happens that there's a new Biluo restaurant in Dongshi. Sanlang and I are talking about going to have a look and try the Western Region wine there. Ah Man and Sister Bao should also go together."

Hearing Mrs. Shen carelessly mentioning that she was going to the wine shop, Yang Che hesitated to speak, while Yang Zhao on the side hissed with his index finger to his lips: "The lady in the boudoir always goes to the wine shop secretly, but there is no Seeing you as my sister, I wish half the city would know about it."

Seeing Yang Zhao blurting out to stop her, Mrs. Shen said indifferently: "Wine tasting in the mansion, wine tasting in restaurants is not all about eating wine? Is it possible that if you change the place, there will be a difference between superior and inferior? There are no such rigid and rigid rules, those little ladies drink in secret, why should I be afraid of drinking in the open?"

Seeing the fearless appearance in front of them, all the ladies covered their mouths and smiled enviously. Seeing Yang Che's helpless face and Yang Zhao's resentful appearance, Li Sui then said: "Although I want to go, But when I came here just now, my aunt had asked Yin Niang and the others to prepare dinner, and I will go to eat and talk with my aunt in a while—”

After all, Li Sui looked at Mrs. Shen and Yang Che and said, "You just go to hell with me, and I can give up my life to protect you."

Mrs. Shen was a little disappointed when she heard that, but she remembered it the next moment and said: "Then tomorrow, I will visit the mansion tomorrow, and I invite you to go alone together."

Hearing this, Yang Che stretched out his hand to stop it, but Yang Zhao said: "Sister Ah Man is a daughter who is waiting to be married now, sister, don't make such fools."

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Shen raised her hand and was about to give Yang Zhao a shudder when she heard the constriction, but Yang Che's pupils who were holding back a smile suddenly dimmed a little, and his expression became cold without showing any trace.

"That's all right."

At this moment, Mrs. Shen didn't look at other people's eyes, but said to Li Sui sympathetically, "I'll go and taste it for you first, and when you leave the cabinet, I'll pick the best one and send it to you."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded by the simple answer, but Mrs. Shen said: "By the way, my name is Qing Lang, you and A Niang usually call me Mei Niang."

"Mai Niang?"

Seeing the doubt in Li Sui's eyes, Qinglang smiled and said: "My mother liked to eat green plums when she was pregnant with me, so Aye gave me the baby name Qingmei."

Seeing the crooked eyes in front of him smiling like a moon, Li Sui smiled and said, "Okay."

While talking, the blue waves under the pavilion are rippling, and the kingfisher outside the pavilion is singing, shining in the warm sun, it is a rare harmony and joy.
　When Yang Che proposed to marry Ah Man earlier, he gave his fiancée the Sun family name. The co-authored name was not pleasant and he changed his surname to Shen family name.
