Transmigrating into the book: The daughter of the Shen family is too arrogant

Shen Ruyan laughed awkwardly, "Where did you hear that nonsense, kid? I came here for something else, why would I rush back just for a concubine's daughter's coming-of-age ceremony? Besides, she's just a concubine's daughter, why would she need a coming-of-age ceremony? I think you guys are taking it too seriously. Qingyu has grown up, and when you come of age, your aunt will definitely come."

Shen Qingyu bowed and thanked him, "Thank you very much for your kindness, Aunt. It would be disrespectful for Qingyu to refuse it."

Bai Ying showed some joy on her face. If Shen Qingyu could have Shen Ruyan as her come-of-age bride at her coming-of-age ceremony next year, that would be a good thing.

She had many opinions about Shen Ruyan, but given Shen Ruyan's identity, she had to think more about what she did and said.

"It is a blessing for Qingyu that the eldest sister values ​​her," said Bai Ying.

Xiao Qingye chuckled and made some noise.

He leaned against the door frame since he entered, with half of the curtain falling on him. The light from outside shone on him, illuminating his eyes and eyebrows. This man was really handsome, to the point of making people fall in love at first sight.

Unfortunately, Shen Qingyu calmly avoided the other person's sight and didn't even glance at Xiao Qingye.

Shen Ruyan looked in the direction of Xiao Qingye and said, "Kid, you've been standing at the door for a long time, and you didn't even come over to say hello."

Xiao Qingye was still lazy and did not move. "It's been many years since I last saw you, aunt. You are still as dazzling and beautiful as before. Your appearance has not changed at all. You are still as beautiful as a flower."

The corner of Shen Qingyu's mouth twitched. She stood by and looked down at her feet.

Only Xiao Qingye could say this. Any other junior would not dare to say such frivolous words in front of their elders.

Shen Ruyan smiled and patted Xiao Qingye on the shoulder, "You kid, you have no sense of propriety when speaking. How can you speak to your third aunt like that? It's too rude."

Although there was some blame in the words, Shen Ruyan's face was full of doting, and she didn't mean to blame him at all. She was just afraid that Xiao Qingye would reveal the secret, and Shen Ruyan, as his mother, would only say good things about it.

Bai Ying knew that outsiders were not allowed to talk about Young Master Xiao Qi, so it was impossible for her to bother with him.

Shen Ruyan apologized, "Don't be angry, Third Sister-in-law. I spoiled this child and he has no rules. When he was in the mansion, the master never scolded him, so he developed this lawless character."

Shen Ruyan had said so, what else could Bai Ying say? The master of the Xiao family, who was also the prefect of Suzhou, loved Young Master Xiao Qi as much as his own eyes, so naturally no one else could touch him.

Bai Ying smiled and waved her hand, "It's okay, it's okay. Qingye is a young talent, young and frivolous, there's nothing to blame."

Shen Ruyan sat aside, and Xiao Qingye still did not move.

She lifted her sleeves and sat down leisurely, the smile on her face faded a little. Although Shen Ruyan loved Xiao Qingye, in Shen Ruyan's heart, the one who gave her the most headache was her only son.

It is true that Xiao Qingye has good handwriting, but he is the prefect's legitimate son and has two older brothers, who are not born of the same mother.

If a man wants to have a good future, he still has to pass the imperial examinations so that he can inherit the family business in the future. The two legitimate sons of the late madam are both very outstanding, but her son is at a disadvantage.

Master Xiao was also very disappointed with his young master Xiao Qi, and wanted him to become a talented person. He sent him to many academies in Suzhou, but Xiao Qingye's temperament was too wild and could not be restrained at all. He drove away the teachers in the academy one after another. Finally, the academy in Suzhou had no choice but to ask him to leave and said that it would never admit Xiao Qi again.

Shen Ruyan was forced into a desperate situation. Since the academy in Suzhou didn't want Xiao Qingye, was there any academy in Jinling Prefecture left? She tried her best to inquire around and finally sent Xiao Qingye to the most famous Yunlu Academy in Jinling Prefecture. Only then did she send Xiao Qingye to the Shen family to be taken care of.

Shen Ruyan picked up the tea served by the maid and tasted what was going on. "Third sister-in-law, the tea soup here is bright in color and rich in flavor. It must be very good."

Bai Ying smiled and said, "Of course I dare not neglect my hospitality to Big Sister. I will use the best cloud mist tea. As long as Big Sister likes it, that's fine."

When it comes to tea tasting, Bai Ying really didn't dare to fool Shen Ruyan. Her mouth was as good as the old man's. When it comes to tea tasting and tea appreciation, the brothers of the Shen family are not as good as Shen Ruyan. After all, she was brought up by the old man himself. As the eldest daughter of the Shen family, she learned a lot from the old man. Unfortunately, she was a girl in the boudoir and her talent was buried.

Shen Ruyan really knows everything about tea tasting. Once she starts talking about it, she can't stop. Even Bai Ying can't stop her.

"This tea, just by looking at its appearance, you can tell whether it's good or not. Third sister-in-law, your family runs so many businesses, and your third brother works hard outside, so you have to worry about this family," Shen Ruyan took a sip of tea and continued, "My Shen family is famous for our tea. For example, this Longjing has a smooth, flat, and straight appearance, like a bowl nail. Good pearl tea has round, tight, and uniform grains—"

As they talked more and more, Shen Ruyan came back to her senses and smiled embarrassedly, "I can't hold back when I talk about these things. Please don't be offended, Third Sister-in-law."

Bai Ying felt disgusted in her heart, but she would not show anything on the surface.

She waved her hand and asked someone to refill Shen Ruyan's tea.

Shen Ruyan looked at the clear tea, pursed her lips and smiled, "Third brother's wife, actually I came here this time because I have something to ask you and my third brother. I have just asked my third brother, and although he has agreed, the affairs of the harem are still decided by women. I would feel bad if I didn't tell you."

Bai Ying was a little dissatisfied, but still asked: "Sister, you are too polite. Is there anything you need our help with?"

"Xiao Qi will be studying at Yunlu Academy in the near future. It's rare that he can focus on this important thing, so I ask you to take good care of him. I'm really sorry to bother you."

Following Shen Ruyan's words, Xiao Qingye who was standing at the door had to move away. The maid beside Shen Ruyan came in from outside, took out a brocade box and handed it to Bai Ying.

Bai Ying took it with a little curiosity and opened it. Inside was a fine white jade bracelet.

The bracelet was in good condition, Bai Ying was very satisfied, she nodded and said, "Eldest sister is really polite, giving me such a good thing. Qingye is our child, and I, as his aunt, don't usually see him. Now that he is in front of me, I must take good care of him. There is a yard next to the master's study, with a good environment and a large area, why not let Qingye live there."
