Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity
Chapter 464: Climbing on Double Ninth Festival
When Shen Liu was leaving, he asked Shen Qi to take good care of the guests. To Shen Qi, that sounded like a rebuke. Later, when Shen Qi finished dealing with Qu Xiujuan's matter and came to talk to her, Xiao Lan knew that Shen Qi was very angry about this matter. She was even worried that she would be blamed by Shen San's grandmother and Shen Liu and others because of this matter.
After Shen Liu left, Shen Qi followed Shen Liu's instructions and took meticulous care of Qu Xiujuan. She knew at the time that Qu Xiujuan's injury was fake, but she still made a big fuss and had someone bring a sedan chair and took her to treat her injury. At that time, Qu Xiujuan looked like the center of attention, but in fact, her real situation should have been like a thorn in the back, sitting on pins and needles. In the end, she had no choice but to resort to self-mutilation, but this was ultimately a bad idea, just a trick to cover up one's own mistakes. Not only did she suffer, but she also lost the face of her family.
The Shen family is currently managed by the Third Grandma of the Shen family. As the biological daughter of the Third Grandma of the Shen family, Shen Qi has been exposed to the power of the housekeeper. How can she not know the methods of authority of the housekeeper? If she allows Qu Yujuan to act recklessly in her territory, how can she obey others in the future? I am afraid that her status in the Shen family will plummet and she may even be invited to watch.
What Shen Qi said to Xiao Lan later, as well as the behavior of Grandma Shen San, all hinted that the future of the entire Qu family would be bleak. Today, Qu Xiujuan had completely offended the Shen family.
After listening to Xiaolan's analysis, Shengxuan and Zhang both nodded.
But Xiao Lan still used this incident to remind herself and her family, "This incident also reminds us that when our family is outside, we must be more careful..."
Sheng Xuan and Zhang nodded in agreement. "Everyone in our family is honest. We have never met such a person before. We should be more careful in the future."
Xiaowen also nodded.
In fact, such things are very common in this circle, but their family is now beginning to integrate into this circle, and the Shen family treats them very friendly, which inevitably arouses jealousy. But now they have realized this, and in the future, as long as they pay more attention in the process of communication, they will soon be able to adapt to the rules.
"Xiao Lan, have you opened the gift that Sixth Master gave you to calm your nerves?" Zhang asked.
"Look, it's a box of incense." Xiao Lan said.
"Just now when we were talking in the study in front, Lord He told us that a lot of things were sent here from the capital during this festival. They said that there was ambergris in them and that these things had only arrived a few days ago. When we were in the study just now, we lit this incense..." Xiao Wen said.
Xiao Lan only glanced at the gift from Shen Liu, and didn't pay much attention to it, so she didn't say anything else. "Today, I am grateful to Miss He for helping me." Xiao Lan said.
"The Shen family's daughter is good and looks stable. I heard from Xiaowen that her brother He Panpan is also a good person. He is full of knowledge and knows how to make progress... We can choose a good day and invite them to our house for a meal." Zhang said.
Zhang and Shengxuan were discussing how to treat the guests to a meal, while Xiaolan and Xiaowen were discussing going out for fun.
There is a custom of climbing heights on the Double Ninth Festival. This activity has existed since ancient times. The scenery in autumn is beautiful, and climbing heights and long jumping are the most pleasant things to do during this season.
The family also agreed that when the time comes, they will play together for a day. After a few busy days, Xiaolan's family finally made time. In the evening of that day, Xiaowen came back from outside and told Xiaolan that he had nothing to do tomorrow, so it was just right for the family to go to the mountains to play. Xiaolan was naturally happy. On the one hand, she was thinking about what to bring tomorrow, and on the other hand, she was thinking about what clothes to wear. The mountains in the suburbs were a bit far away, and Xiaolan planned to have a picnic there. However, if she wanted to have a picnic, she would have to bring a lot of things.
Shengxuan and Zhang actually didn't care about the trip, but seeing Xiaolan and Xiaowen so happy, the couple were naturally happy too.
The next morning, the family got up early and went out to the suburbs with their entourage.
It was a clear, crisp autumn day, and Sheng Xuan and Xiao Wen both rode horses. In recent years, Sheng Xuan had to go to pastures or other places to look after his family's property, so he also learned to ride a horse.
Xiaolan and Zhang were sitting in a carriage, and there were two other carriages following behind them. One was filled with personal maids, and the other was loaded with a lot of food and daily necessities.
In addition to the people sitting in the carriage, there were also servants supporting the carriage from front to back, and the black horse that Xiao Lan raised was also pulled out. Xiao Lan was ready to go to the place, and then she could ride the horse and gallop.
Today the weather is good and it is a festival, so many people in the city go out to play. When Xiaolan and her group walked to the village road, they saw that there were fewer people on the road. At this time, Xiaolan's stomach was aroused, and she wanted to go out on horseback. But she was stopped by Xiaowen.
"Second sister, the road here is narrow, you'd better take a car to avoid bumps and bumps. When we get to an open area, you can get off and ride a horse." Xiao Wen said.
Since Xiaowen said so, and it was for her own good, Xiaolan had no choice but to get back in the car. "Xiaowen has become old-fashioned now." Xiaolan complained to Zhang in a low voice.
"Xiao Wen has grown up. He is more steady and knows how to think about you." Zhang said with a smile.
In fact, in Xiaolan's heart, she couldn't be happier at this moment. Zhang was right. Xiaowen was steady in his work. As the son of the family, this was the best thing. Because the future of their family would depend on him.
When the carriage reached the bottom of the mountain, the family got off the carriage and horses. Before Xiao Lan got off, she heard the sound of horse hooves outside. Xiao Lan quickly lifted the curtain and looked outside. From the sound of horse hooves just now, there must be more than ten horses riding, and they were running very fast. Could it be that a wealthy family was hunting here?
In ancient times, during the Double Ninth Festival, people not only liked to climb high places to see the distant view, but now it is also a good time for autumn hunting. Today, the whole family came out with bows and arrows, intending to try their luck and hunt some wild animals to satisfy their hunger.
Xiao Lan deserves a thumbs up for her riding and archery skills. Although she has rarely practiced martial arts in recent years as she has grown older, the skills she has in her bones cannot be wasted.
"Whose family is this?" Xiao Lan asked. Who in this city or nearby could have so many excellent horses at once?
