Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 127

Shen Wanqing walked over slowly wearing neon clothes and feathers, like a fairy in the sky, people couldn't take their eyes off.While walking, the moon-white skirt fluttered like a dream, and the feathers on the clothes fluttered gently.

The warm sunlight scattered on her body, covering her with a faint halo.I have to say that the neon clothes and feather clothes are really suitable for her elegant temperament, making her more elegant and beautiful all day long.

"Only Miss Shen Er can convey the elegant beauty of this neon dress and feather coat. It seems that my design for you this time was very successful."

Shang Rui withdrew her gaze, and she shifted her gaze to Second Aunt who was still in the experience: "Second Aunt, what do you think?"

After hearing Shang Rui's question, Second Aunt came back to her senses.There was excitement in her eyes, she looked at Shang Rui and said, "Boss Shang, your design is really amazing. Qing'er is really as beautiful as a fairy descending to earth in this neon dress and feather coat."

Shen Wanqing walked slowly to the side of the two, and blessed her body gracefully.

"Mom, what do you think of me now?"

"Beautiful, very beautiful. My Qing'er is as beautiful as a fairy in this neon dress and feather coat. I believe that you will be able to overwhelm everyone at the Hundred Flowers Banquet." The second aunt said what was in her heart. She saw her daughter wearing a neon dress at this time. Yu Yi was so beautiful that she knew that her daughter would definitely be the focus of everyone's attention at this Hundred Flowers Banquet.

Shen Wanqing pursed her lips and smiled shyly.She looked up at Shang Rui, showing a gentle smile: "It's all thanks to Boss Shang, every time Boss Shang's design is amazing."

Shang Rui waved his hand: "Second Miss Shen's words are too flattering to me, it's because of the beautiful appearance and figure of Second Miss Shen that this neon dress and feather coat can give off a sense of elegance."

"I have something to do in the afternoon. Now I will teach Ms. Shen the dance of the neon clothes. This dance is specially designed for the neon clothes and feather clothes. I believe that if Second Miss Shen learns it, it will definitely refresh everyone's eyes."

Shang Rui glanced at the clear sky outside the window, she didn't want to stay in front of this hypocritical mother and daughter.It is better to teach her the dance earlier, so that she can complete the task and leave.

Shen Wanyu nodded quickly, she really wanted to know what kind of surprise this dance would bring her.

Shang Rui clapped her hands, and the dancers who followed her came over immediately.She turned her head to look at Second Aunt, and asked, "Is there a spacious place here?"

The second aunt's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a while, she said: "Yes, I will take you there."

Several people left with Second Aunt, and stopped in front of an empty room after a while.Pushing open the door and walking in, there was nothing but empty inside.

Shang Rui glanced at the empty room, she remembered that the last time she taught Shen Wanqing to dance seemed to be in a relatively remote courtyard.It's not the house in front of me, but since they want to be here, she has no problem.

"Let's stay here then."

Several dancers immediately stood in their positions, and Shang Rui and the dancers performed the dance of neon clothes together.Shen Wanqing looked at it very seriously, remembering every movement with her heart.

Shen Wanqing liked dancing and playing the piano since she was a child, so when she saw this graceful yet heroic dance in neon clothes, she immediately fell in love with it.She believed that as long as she put on this neon dress and feather coat to dance this dance, she would definitely shine in the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

Shang Rui finished the whole dance, sweat was already appearing on her forehead.There was a faint blush on the fair little face, and some were out of breath.Sure enough, she is still not suitable for dancing, and her physical strength can't keep up at all.

"Second Miss Shen, how do you see it? How much have you written down?"

Shen Wanqing lowered her eyes and played it back in her mind, before she said: "I've remembered more than half of it, and there are still a few movements that I haven't remembered."

Shang Rui turned his eyes and thought for a while, then asked, "Where did it start?"

Shen Wanqing recalled the dance, she raised her hands and twisted her waist.The toes lightly touch the ground, and the arms are slightly bent.The slender and light body danced, and after a short dance, it stopped.

Shang Rui thought for a moment, then she jumped down.Demonstrated the following dance again, because there was a reason for teaching Shen Wanqing the dance last time, she knew she would remember it after this one.

Sure enough, Shen Wanqing did not disappoint Shang Rui, this time she remembered all the parts she didn't remember.

"Okay, I prepared these dancers for Second Miss Shen. If I ask you to pick a few more maids to learn from, it will probably waste time."

After hearing Shang Rui's words, Second Auntie and Shen Wanqing also thought it made sense and did not refuse.They don't have much time left, and they have to practice more in the remaining time.

"Then I would like to thank Boss Shang for his kindness. If Boss Shang has anything to do in the future, we will definitely help." The second aunt had a gentle smile on her face. She felt that it was necessary to win over Boss Shang.If she can get her help in the future, her daughter's future journey will be easier.

"It's not polite." Shang Rui shook her head, she felt nothing.She just wanted to complete the task Shen Wanyu entrusted to her, so that Shen Wanqing could shine at the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

"By the way, although these dancers are very familiar with dancing, you'd better dance together a few more times to cultivate a tacit understanding."

Shang Rui remembered that this dance is not performed by one person, only when everyone cooperates can the most beautiful effect be shown.

Shen Wanqing naturally knew this truth, the dance with many people was different from the solo dance.Multi-person dance is about coordination, and only when the coordination is good can the most beautiful effect be shown.As for solo dancing, as long as you dance well by yourself, everything will be fine.

"I know, I will practice well with them." Shen Wanqing smiled softly, she turned her head to look at the dancers behind her and said, "I hope you can cooperate with me a lot in the future."

The dancers glanced at Shang Rui and saw her nodding.Only then did he reveal a smile, and nodded at Shen Wanqing with a smile too.

"Okay, I won't delay your practice. I'll go back first."

Shang Rui wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to walk towards the door after speaking.

As soon as she lifted her leg, she heard the sound of small footsteps outside the door.Immediately afterwards, there was a rapid knock on the door, and a crisp voice came in.

"Second Aunt, Second Miss. Mother Shen, who is beside the old lady, has arrived and is waiting in the front hall,"

Second Aunt's complexion changed slightly when she heard the little maid's words.After that, he quickly recovered his usual gentleness, and let his soft voice speak.

"come in."

As soon as her voice fell, the door was pushed open.Shang Rui looked over and saw that the person who came was the little maid who picked him up at the door.His eyes moved slightly, but nothing showed on his face.

Then the girl quickly walked to the second aunt's side, and she whispered a few words in the second aunt's ear.I saw Second Auntie's complexion changed a few times, and it took a while before she returned to normal.

She squeezed the handkerchief tightly and gritted her silver teeth.How could the old lady know that Shang Rui was with her, and she wanted Shang Rui to go to her place to do something.In the morning, her spies sent news, and Shen Wanyu went to the old lady's yard early in the morning.Could it be her.
There was a burst of anger in her heart, but she couldn't attack it and could only endure it.She smiled slightly and looked at Shang Rui.

"Boss Shang doesn't mind going to the front hall with me. Our old lady knows that Wanqing's last dance and dance costumes were designed by you. She has always been very curious about you. Today she knows that you are coming to the house, so she wants to Please go and sit down."

Shang Rui was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to think of something.There was a look of embarrassment on his face, as if he didn't want to go.

Shang Rui's appearance suits Second Aunt's heart very well. She has a pleading look on her face: "Our old lady's temperament is relatively strong. If I refuse her, I'm afraid I will offend her old man, and I won't do it in the future. Better off."

Shang Rui lowered her head, as if she was thinking.After a while, she raised her head and looked at Second Aunt: "Okay, then I will go with Second Aunt."

Second Aunt's face beamed with joy, and she nodded repeatedly.She glanced at Shen Wanqing behind Shang Rui who was showing a displeased expression, and said softly: "Qing'er, time is running out. You practice dancing well, Boss Shang and I will go to the front hall first."

"Yes, mother."

Although Shen Wanqing was a little unhappy in her heart, her DNA didn't show it obviously.Besides, what her mother said was right, the most important thing for her now is to dance this dance well.

When Second Aunt brought Shang Rui to the front hall, Nanny Shen was standing in the hall waiting.Seeing Second Aunt approaching, she immediately stepped forward to salute.

"The servant has seen the second aunt."

After all, my aunt's status is higher than that of their slaves, and I did this to prevent her from catching something and using it as an excuse later.

"Sister Shen, get up quickly, you are the old lady next to the old lady. I don't need these little gestures here." Second Aunt hurriedly reached out to help Nanny Shen, with a flattered expression on her face.

Shen Momo lowered her eyes slightly, and without politeness, she stood up with her help.There was a smile on her face, neither humble nor overbearing.

"I don't know why Mother Shen came to me today?"

The second aunt walked to the main seat and sat down, reached out to take a sip of the tea handed over by the maid at the side.She asked the question knowingly.

Shen Momo raised her head and said with a slight smile: "Old Madam heard that Miss Shang, who designed the dance clothes and dances for Second Miss, came to the Hou's Mansion last time, so she specially asked the servant to come over and invite her to come over."

Second Aunt heard the words and put down the teacup in her hand.There was a faint smile in her eyes, and her tone was gentle: "So that's the case, this is the original. I, as a daughter-in-law, naturally listen to the old lady's words, but I can't make decisions for Miss Shang. So Nanny Shen still personally Ask Miss Shang if she is willing to go with you to the old lady's place. If she is willing to go with you, I will naturally not stop her. But if Miss Shang is not willing, then I have nothing to do. "

Listening to Second Aunt's words, Sister Shen had a flash of sarcasm in her eyes.The second aunt again threw the question to that Miss Shang, if that Miss Shang was willing to go with her, of course it would be fine.But if she didn't want to, then this matter can't be blamed on her head.

Shang Rui's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, this second aunt is really not a fuel-efficient lamp.But since she threw the question to her, she naturally wouldn't let her do what she wanted.

She continued to drink tea with her head down calmly, and Second Aunt saw that she didn't seem to want to talk to her.She was a little more certain in her heart that she would not follow Nanny Shen to see the old lady.

Shen Momo showed a gentle smile on her face, and her tone was polite: "This is Miss Shang, I wonder if you would like to go to the old lady with your servant. Our old lady is very curious about you."

Shang Rui put down the teacup, she looked up hesitantly at the shrewd old man in front of her.

"But I have something to do in the afternoon, so I'm afraid I can't go to the old lady."

As soon as Mother Shen heard it, she knew that Shang Rui was hesitant.She didn't completely refuse, she said with a smile: "It's okay, our old lady just wants to meet you. It won't take a lot of your time, and I will send someone to send you back later."

There was a trace of struggle in Shang Rui's eyes, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "I see, then okay, I'll go with you."

Second Aunt was slightly taken aback when she heard Shang Rui's words, and then a look of anger flashed in her eyes.She never thought that Shang Rui would agree, what if it was really what she thought.She absolutely cannot let that little bitch Shen Wanyu take away her daughter's brilliance.

"Second Concubine, since Miss Shang has agreed. Then the slave will take Miss Shang to the old lady's place. You have no objection." Mother Shen still had a smile on her face, and she looked at Second Concubine who had an ugly face. .

The second aunt twitched the corners of her mouth, forced a smile and said, "Of course, Miss Shang has already decided to go with you. Naturally, I won't disagree."

Nanny Shen nodded, then looked at Shang Rui and said, "Miss Shang, please."

Shang Rui stood up, bid farewell to Second Aunt, and left with Shen Momo.She did not miss the ugly look on Second Auntie's face, and the anger in her eyes was not concealed at all.Seeing her aggrieved look of being angry but unable to vent, she felt really refreshed.

The two of them didn't speak a word along the way, and they arrived at Anlu Courtyard after walking for about a quarter of an hour.Nanny Shen led Shang Rui into the Nuan Pavilion, while Shen Wanyu was chatting with the old lady.I don't know what I said, and the old lady laughed heartily.The entire warm pavilion is filled with a warm atmosphere, which makes people feel very fond of it.

"Madam, Miss Shang has brought it."

When the old lady heard Shen Nanny's words, she raised her head and looked at the handsome woman standing behind her.A moon-white pleated ruyi moon skirt, tied with a white silk ribbon.It makes her figure more and more slender, and her delicate and fair face is also very attractive.

Shang Rui stepped forward and blessed her body: "Shang Rui has seen the old lady."

"Get up, get up, you don't need these formalities here. Sit down, and someone will serve you tea."

The old lady quickly asked Shang Rui to get up, and then asked someone to serve her tea.Seeing Shang Rui being so polite, she liked it a little more.Good first impression of her.

Shang Rui didn't hesitate and sat down on the chair beside her.He reached out to take the hot tea handed over by the little maid, and took a sip.Putting down the teacup, she inadvertently glanced at Shen Wanyu who was sitting beside the old lady.Looking at her cute appearance, it's really different when she is in front of her.

Sensing Shang Rui's gaze, Shen Wanyu raised her head and glanced at her.Although the two only had brief eye contact, they both clearly understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

Shang Rui looked away, looked at the old lady and said, "I don't know why the old lady called Shang Rui here today?"

The old lady picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. With a loving smile on her face, she said slowly, "I liked Qing girl's dance and dance clothes last time. I heard that you designed them. Today you just come to give her Sending clothes, someone will call you over. The Hundred Flowers Banquet is coming soon, and I want to make some beautiful clothes for the girls in the mansion. I don’t know if you are willing to help me, Miss Shang. As for The price is up to you."

Shang Rui always had a faint smile on her face, she glanced at Shen Wanyu.She remembered that this girl said she wanted to make Shen Wanqing show off, if she made clothes for the other girls.Then how can the limelight come out, she still wants Shen Wanyu's intention for this matter.

She thought that Shen Wanyu would not agree, but to her surprise, Shen Wanyu nodded towards her.Although she didn't know why she did this, she nodded in agreement.

"Of course it is possible, but I would like to invite several other ladies over. I need to know their sizes."

Shang Rui glared at Shen Wanyu, and would make trouble for her.One Shen Wanqing is enough for her to be tired, she hasn't developed her dessert properly in the past few days.Now there are two more, I really don't want her to develop dim sum properly.

"Okay, Sister Shen, please send two servant girls to inform the third and fourth misses to come over." The old lady got Shang Rui's consent, and Kai Ku immediately asked Shen mother to send someone to call them all.

She turned her head to look at Shen Wanyu, with deep love in her eyes.She pulled Shen Wanyu up and pushed her in front of Shang Rui.

"This is the eldest lady of our Hou Mansion, you should measure her first."

Shang Rui nodded, stood up and walked around Shen Wanyu.He put his hand on her arm, squeezed her waist, and then sat back on her back.

The old lady looked at Shang Rui in surprise, it was the first time she saw a person measure his body like this.You can know it just by touching it with your hands.

Shen Wanyu glared at Shang Rui bitterly, she really didn't expect that this dead girl was also narrow-minded.She knows this girl's ability, she can know the size of the girl just by looking at her.She pinched her twice just now, which seemed to be very gentle but actually quite powerful.Her waist hurt a lot from being pinched, and she must have turned red.

Shang Rui didn't seem to see her stare, she said with a smile: "Shang Rui is making clothes for others, so you can see that the other party's size is also made by training. But Miss Shen is the son of the Hou family. Miss, of course you have to be more careful."

What she said made the old lady feel in her heart, and her impression of her was even better.The whole person is a little softer, she nodded and said.

"Miss Shang is very thoughtful. Girl Yu is the prostitute of the Hou family. Going out means representing the face of the Hou family. Naturally, she is more delicate than others."

Yun Manrou, who was sitting next to the old lady, also showed a gentle smile on her face: "Then my Yuer's clothes will bother Ms. Shang a lot."

This gentle, watery voice immediately attracted Shang Rui's attention, and she had to say that she was rightly a voice controller.I have never been able to resist a nice voice, when I see that beautiful woman who is as gentle as her voice.She suddenly understood how that girl Shen Wanyu got her good looks.

The Marquis of Beining Hou Mansion is famously handsome, this is something that Quan Dakun knows.But her wife Yun Manrou seldom shows up in front of people, causing everyone to forget that Dakun was the number one beauty back then.How could the child born of such two handsome men and beautiful women not become a disaster.

"You must be Mrs. Shen. You really deserve to be the number one beauty in Dakun. You have a beautiful voice, too."

Shang Rui looked at Yun Manrou with burning eyes, his eyes were full of light.As if she looked like a pervert, Shen Wanyu couldn't help but rolled her eyes.She really didn't know that this girl was actually a pervert.

"Ahem, it turns out that mother is still the number one beauty in Dakun."

Shen Wanyu coughed lightly, and glared at Shang Rui when everyone was not paying attention.She turned her head to look at Yun Manrou, and spoke in surprise.

She knew that her mother was beautiful, more beautiful than any woman she had ever seen.But I really didn't expect that my own mother would be Da Kun's number one beauty.

The corner of Yun Manrou's mouth twitched into a bitter smile, the title of the first beauty seemed glamorous.But how much trouble it brought her back then, only she knew.

"That's all in the past, I'm old now."

Just as Shen Wanyu was about to speak, two little maids walked in with Shen Yuning and Shen Yurou.She finally chose to keep her mouth shut, and sat obediently beside the old lady.

"Ning girl and Rou girl are here, Miss Shang, please help them check the size."

Seeing the two coming, the old lady quickly looked at Shang Rui and said.Shang Rui nodded and walked around the two of them twice.

Shen Yuning and Shen Yurou glanced at each other, looked at the woman who circled around him twice and then went back to sit down.Their eyes were full of doubts, they were all preparing for the talent at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and they were called by the maid beside the grandmother.

"This is Ms. Shang who designed dance clothes for your second sister. She came to deliver clothes for your second sister today. I invited her here and designed one for you as well."

Seeing the confused look of the two, the old lady explained.

Although the two of them didn't know what Shen Wanqing was wearing that day, they both heard that her dance and dance clothes were outstanding that day.Hearing what the old lady said, they were all overjoyed.

Shen Wanyu coldly took the expressions of the two of them into her eyes, no one would let this limelight go unnoticed.

She wanted Shen Wanqing to be that shield, but she suddenly felt that it would be good to mix up their already somewhat chaotic situation.

After Shen Yuning and Shen Yurou thanked the old lady, they went back.Shen Wanyu tilted her head and looked at Shang Rui curiously, as if she was very interested in her.

"I'm tired, girl Yu, please send Miss Shang off to me."
