Chapter 66 Chief 'Flying Sky' Xian Piao Yuan +5

  Wang Ergou's gaze swept over Sheng Siyan's face in a careless manner, just like it would sweep over anyone else's face in the room, without any special attention.

  Sheng Siyan didn't feel discouraged, thinking that Wang Erge wouldn't have forgotten her either, would he? Had she really grown a face like "Passerby A"?

  Zhou Huai Xuan had forgotten that she was excusable. They were originally just a brief encounter, it was the night she was "kidnapped" in the mountains. At that time, she was only five years old and also blind.

  Five years later, Zhou Huai Xuan saw her again. She was already ten years old and her eyes had recovered. Unless Zhou Huai Xuan grew a "dog nose" to smell fragrances and recognize women like her, he wouldn't have been able to tell that she was completely normal.

  But Wang Erge was different. They had lived next door since childhood and had been neighbors for more than five years!

  He left Wangjiacun when Sheng Siyan was just six years old.

  Five years later, when I saw her again, she was eleven years old.

  In just two short years, have these two men who had a history with her completely forgotten about her?

  Sheng Siyan, although always optimistic and cheerful, couldn't help but feel a little depressed at this time. She looked at her bucket-shaped figure, silently shrinking behind the massive Niu Xiaoye's back, hiding herself away.

  Wu Chanjuan walked to the door and first bowed to Zhou Huaili, asking: "Brother-in-law, have you arrived? Do you want to come in and sit down for a cup of tea?"

  Although Zhou Huairu's generation is the same as that of the young ladies and gentlemen in Xiaotao Wa, he is already 19 years old this year and can no longer be considered a young gentleman. Of course, he cannot come to Neiyuan Xiaotao Wa to have dinner with these young ladies.

  Wu Chanjuan knew he was originally drinking with those uncles and grandfathers at the outer court.

  Zhou Huairui smiled, and that smile made Wu Yujuan's face flush with heat, so she had to calm herself down and pretend nothing was wrong.

  "I'll go take a look at my cousin," Zhou Huai Li said warmly. Unlike Zhou Huai Xuan's slender and narrow phoenix eyes, Zhou Huai Li's eyes were big and bright, like the stars in the sky. Compared to him, Young Master Xia Zhi was immediately inferior by a notch.

  Wu Chanjuan's heart beats faster, but she still remembers her manners and smiles as she nods. "Thank you, Brother Biao, for remembering me." She then asks the person beside him, "And who is this?"

  Zhou Huairui glanced at the man beside him and smiled as he introduced, "He is Wang Yixing, a friend brought by Niu Dapeng." As he spoke, he stepped aside to reveal two men standing behind him.

  Zhou Huairui and Wang Yixing were too tall and broad, they actually blocked the people behind them completely.

  Now, making way for her, Wu Yujuan saw two other men.

  One of them was Wu Zhaoxiang, the eldest son of Wu's second wife and her cousin.

  Another man with a medium build and thick eyebrows, probably "Niu Dapeng". Just by the name, you can tell he's the older brother of that crazy girl Niu Xiaoye.

  But this person was brought by Thursday's young master himself, and his identity is not ordinary.

  Wu Chanjuan was very curious. She knew that the Niu family was just an ordinary merchant, so how did they curry favor with the Shenjiang government?

  Wu Zhuangxiang, Wu Chanjuan's elder brother, smiled and said: "Second sister, it's like this. This Brother Niu is the new imperial merchant who has just been appointed this year and is now registered under our family name, from now on he will be a member of our household. His younger sister is Niu Xiaoye. I heard that she was once a schoolmate of yours at Xiangrong Girls' School, so I specially brought her here to catch up with you." As he spoke, he also winked at Wu Chanjuan.

  Wu Chanjuan understood and nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, brother. I really have a friendship with Xiao Ye, and I'll definitely take good care of her later."

  Niu Datong busily cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Wu Erguniang." As he spoke, he presented a small brocade box. "A small gift, not worth much, I hope Wu Erguniang will accept it with a smile." He also explained, "It was specially chosen for you by my younger sister."

  Wu Chanjuan waved her hand to let Hua Mei take over, then nodded at Niu Dapeng and said, "Thank you, Master Niu." While speaking, her eyes kept flying towards Wang Yixing.

  Wang Yixing stared at her steadily. Seeing that she had finished speaking, he burst out laughing and said: "It turns out that Wu Erguan is really a phoenix, I'm lucky to have met this rare sight today thanks to Niu's introduction!"

  Niú Dà Pēng couldn't help but take a glance at Wú Yù Juān's double pupils. After taking a look, he felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable attraction in those double pupils, as if they were pulling him in. He didn't move his gaze away for a long time, and only after a while did he shift his eyes away, using a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. He said with embarrassment: "...... Amazing, amazing, too amazing."

  Wang Yixing was calmer than him and wasn't swayed by Wu Chanjuan's heavy gaze.

  He casually glanced around the house and smiled: "So many guests, is it Wu Er's birthday? Ah, I forgot to prepare a birthday gift for Wu Er! Should be beaten! He also scolded Niu Dapeng and Zhou Huaili for not telling him, making him lose his manners.

  Niu Datong and Zhou Huaili both smiled and intentionally didn't correct him, watching his anxious expression loudly say: "Yixing ah Yixing ah, you also have anxious moments!"

  Wu Chanjuan was shocked and hastily waved her hand: "No, no! It's not my birthday!"

  "Isn't it his birthday? Then...?" Wang Yi Xing pointed inside with one hand, a puzzled look on his face.

  Zhou Huairui smiled and said, "Maybe Da Peng forgot to tell you. Today's banquet is for Sheng Guogong's succession to the title. You know that Zheng Dainai is Sheng Lao Yezi's gatekeeper disciple. All these years, she has been reasoning with Empress Dowager, insisting on finding back the Sheng family's direct line of succession. Now that Sheng Qiye has finally returned, she is overjoyed."

  Wu Zhaoxiang also said: "That's right. Eldest Brother's wife is kind and skilled, we men can't match her. She set up this banquet to welcome the Sheng family back to Beijing and congratulate them on their return."

  Wang Yixing suddenly looked enlightened and cupped his hands, saying: "So that's it! So that's it! --- In that case, Zheng Dà Niángzi is really kind-hearted!"

  Ever since she saw Wang Ergou's "facing each other without recognizing" appearance, Sheng Siyan has been very depressed, thinking that Wang Ergou had completely forgotten her.

  Now hearing Wang Erge's words over there, Sheng Siyan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  She could hear that Wang Erge was being deliberately pretentious on the other side, actually wanting to remind everyone that this banquet was held for the Sheng family, and they shouldn't get things backwards, elevating the Wu family while the Sheng family, who should be the main characters, were squeezed into a corner.

  With her familiarity with Wang Ergou's style of doing things, she was certain that next, Wang Ergou would definitely pick her out and show her off.

  But she really doesn't want to show off now!

  Let her be an invisible person, hiding in a corner is the best!

  Sheng Siyan poked her head out from behind Niu Xiaoye, anxiously raising an eyebrow and making eyes at Wang Yixing. She was telling him not to mention it again.

  As a result, Wang Yixing happened to glance over again "accidentally", and his expression of raising an eyebrow and exchanging glances with Sheng Siyan collided head-on. He couldn't help but smile, and hurriedly covered it up with his sleeve, adjusting the look on his face.

  Since Wang Yi Xing started speaking, Wu Yan Juan was captivated by his voice.

  The voice was low and resonant, with a metallic tone, yet not too sharp or decisive. It sounded as majestic and calm as a great mountain, giving people a sense of reliability.

  Wu Chanjuan's eyes kept following him as he turned.

  As a result, Wu Chanjuan saw him and Sheng Siyan staring at each other, as well as Sheng Siyan's strange expression of raising an eyebrow and winking at him, all of which were seen by Wu Chanjuan.

  At a glance, Wang Yi's eyes sparkled with joy when he saw Sheng Siyan, and it was impossible to hide it. Suddenly, Wu Yanjuan felt sour teeth.

  However, this morning's scene with the Empress Dowager had already allowed her to vent, and now that she had a foundation from this morning's events, she was able to respond calmly.

  "Uncle, cousin, would you like to come in and sit for a while, have a cup of wine before leaving?" Wu Chanjuan calmed down and continued to invite them.

  Wu Chan-yin saw several little girls' heads about to drill under the table, so she walked over and reminded Wu Chan-juan: "There's still a wine banquet in the outer courtyard. Let's not delay the young masters?"

  What she meant was that these four men were all over fifteen years old, staying in the inner courtyard with them, sitting and eating together, which didn't seem quite right. Even if they were friends of Zhou Huairu and Wu Zhaoxiang was her elder brother, the other young girls had no relationship with these two men at all.

  Wu Chanjuan came to her senses and was also grateful to Wu ChanYin for giving her a ready-made excuse. She hurriedly said, "Elder sister is right, it's my fault." Then with an apologetic face, she turned to the four men outside the door and said, "It's my mistake, I've kept you all talking for half a day, and now we won't make it to the banquet in the outer courtyard."

  Wang Yi smiled and said: "The banquet in the outer court honors Duke Shengguo, while the banquet in the inner court honors Princess Wei and Madame Shengguo..."

  Before he could finish, Niu Xiaoye shouted loudly, "That's right! We should also respect Sheng Dajie here!" As she spoke, she pushed out Sheng Siyan who was hiding behind her.

  Sheng Siyan, although born plump, next to Niu Xiaoye, a truly fat person. She was still not enough to be seen, and was picked out by Niu Xiaoye like an eagle catching a chicken, standing in the midst of everyone's gaze.

  Wu Chanying quickly caught on and immediately walked over to pull Sheng Siyan's hand, scolding her: "You're the eldest Miss Sheng? I heard this morning that Her Majesty the Empress Dowager specially praised you, yet you're hiding again and not even letting us see you!" With just two sentences, she lightly and casually turned their intentional disregard of Sheng Siyan into Sheng Siyan herself hiding from them.

  That's also not wrong.

  Sheng Siyan indeed wanted to hide from them.

  But she was forced to choose "hide" after being deliberately "ignored" by them.

  It's just this feeling, and there's no need to say it in front of everyone.

  Sheng Siyan smiled and also "affectionately" held Wu Cuilian's hand, saying: "Sister Wu is really good at talking. I, who only wanted to hide, am now too ashamed to hide again. If we don't take the first seat today, it would be a waste of Zheng Dainai and Sister Wu and Second Sister Wu's kindness towards our Sheng family!"

  Wu Chan's smile on her face didn't change, but she was shocked in her heart. This little girl looked chubby and had a innocent and lovely appearance, but when she spoke, she was surprisingly mature, even more so than her own cousin...

  Wu Chanjuan knew that Sheng Siyan was used to saying such nice words and doing superficial work, so she couldn't help but curl her lip and say to the four men outside: "This is the eldest daughter of Duke Sheng, Miss Sheng. We didn't see her sitting there just now."

  Sheng Siyan walked over with a big smile, and bowed to the four men at the door one by one: "Fourth Master Zhou, I heard that you were ill and couldn't go on an expedition. Are you better now?"

  "Is Wu Daguizi going to join the army in this manner?" Sheng Siyan had heard from Sheng Qiye that Wu Jia's second son, Wu Zhaoxiang, wanted to join the army, but he was somewhat afraid of the cold and had even asked someone to find him a prescription.

  "Niu Dabo, I was already quite familiar with her when Xiaoye and I were classmates at Rongnu Academy. She always kept saying 'I've long admired you, big brother'!" Sheng Siyan bowed to Niu Dapeng.

  Sheng Siyan was petite, with an apple-shaped face and a bucket-shaped figure. Now she still had this old-fashioned air about her, which made the three men outside feel very amused, thinking she looked like a little sister at home, and couldn't help but want to go and pat her on the head.

  Sheng Siyan turned sideways before finally facing Wang Yixing.

  She looked up at him, somewhat annoyed.

  Five years have passed, and their height difference seems to be unchanged!

  Sheng Siyan immediately decided that after going home, every morning she would jump up and bounce one hundred times. — She wanted to grow taller! Grow taller!

  "King... young master, are you really from Jiangnan? ... I'm still young and inexperienced, don't deceive me." Sheng Siyan looked at Wang Yi Xing as if she had never seen him before.

  The fifth update for "Flying Fairy" is here. The following plot will be even more exciting! This time, I must make everyone watch with relish and can't help but continue! Oh yeah!
