Chapter 3 First Encounter

A few days later, the group finally arrived in the capital. It was already afternoon, and it was inconvenient to visit the grandfather's house, so they happened to go to the old house that had been prepared first.

As the capital of the country, the capital city is very lively under the feet of the emperor. The speed of the motorcade is not fast, and many servants who have never been here have widened their eyes and looked at the bustling surroundings.

Shen Mingshu knocked on the car door, motioning for Shen Li to stop, Shen Li lifted the curtain for her, Shen Mingshu stepped on the car seat, turned around and ordered: "I'll go to the shop and take a look, you send the second miss and the young master to the old house first."

Shen Qingyue has not calmed down all the way, and now she can't bear to go with Shen Mingshu. Although Shen Qingjia wants to stroll around, she is not interested in the business in the shop, so naturally she doesn't want to go with Shen Mingshu.

So Shen Mingshu only followed Shen Li and Lan Yin to walk towards the most prosperous street in the capital.

The street is paved with flat bluestone slabs, and the flow of people is like weaving. There are various shops on both sides of the shops, attracting visitors from all over the world. Shen Mingshu walked and looked all the way, and bought something from time to time. It didn't take long for Shen Li and Lan Yin to hold a lot of things in their hands.

The more you go east, the more gorgeous the clothes and clothes of the pedestrians. The east market is closer to Sannei, and there are more dignitaries living in the nearby squares, and the goods sold are more precious and rare.

Shen Mingshu stopped at the entrance of a shop. The plaque hung on the shop was engraved with the word "Linlang Pavilion", and there was also a small bauhinia flower pattern engraved on the plaque, which was the imprint privately set by Shen Ji.

Linlang Pavilion was very lively, every guest was entertained by a dedicated waiter, Shen Mingshu carried him inside, and a waiter came up to greet him, Shen Li stepped forward and said a few words to the waiter, and the waiter bowed to invite him Come over here.

Shen Mingshu looked at the various objects on the counter of Linlang Pavilion. This Linlang Pavilion was not called this originally, and this scale only existed in recent years. Young, and now so many years.

The manager quickly came over, with a warm smile unique to businessmen, and asked them to come in and talk. Shen Mingshu turned his head and told Shen Li and Lan Yin to follow him in. Shen Li bowed and agreed, and Tong Lan led his hands full Something went in.

Shen Mingshu was led by a young guy to sit in the reception area at the other end of the shop, and the guy in charge of the reception quickly brought out tea and pastries.

This way of entertaining was Shen Qingjia's idea. He was impatient and went shopping one by one, so he asked people to set up a resting place outside, but it made many of the same sons and young masters willing to accompany their female relatives to come in and have a look. Shen Mingshu then A special place was set up in Linlang Pavilion for entertaining.

Shen Mingshu took a sip of tea leisurely, and outside the window was the bustling scene, with people coming and going, and the servants behind the nobleman were holding large and small boxes in their hands, walking non-stop.

Looking at it, Shen Mingshu noticed a woman, or a girl, standing outside a jewelry store across the street, wearing half-worn clothes, the fabric was good but it didn't fit well, her cheeks were fair, and there was a little The baby is fat, with a little white spot between the eyebrows, the simplest flower tin, and a pair of dark eyes looking at the passers-by with a little confusion and embarrassment.

Shen Mingshu frowned slightly, judging from the fabric, she should be a lady from the official family, but judging from the others, she probably didn't pay much attention to it, judging from her figure, she was not as old as Shen Qingyue, and there were not even servants behind her, so throwing such a young girl away In the downtown area, it is really inappropriate.

Just as Shen Mingshu was thinking about whether to send someone to invite the girl over, he saw a group of people walking out of the jewelry shop, followed by a servant holding a tall gift box, and accidentally knocked the girl to the ground. Anxious to keep up with the master in front, he chased out without even looking.

The girl sat on the ground, looking down at the worn skin on her palms helplessly, her brows were slightly frowned, and after a while, water vapor filled her eyes, but she was pressed down again, she stood up slowly, lowered her head gently Patting the dust on the skirt, a moment later, a pair of silk shoes appeared in front of her eyes.

When the girl was hit, Shen Mingshu stood up with a cold face, and strode towards the opposite side, naturally seeing the girl's reaction, and felt pity in his heart.

Standing in front of the girl, she didn't know how to comfort her. Shen Qingyue was arrogant and had never experienced such suffering. Shen Mingshu looked into the jewelry store. Many people saw what happened outside, but no one came out. , Shen Mingshu's eyes dimmed, and when he looked at the girl, his expression softened again.

The girl raised her head to look at her in confusion, her apricot eyes still glowed slightly, Shen Mingshu asked in a soft voice: "My name is Shen Mingshu, I saw you were injured just now, you want to go to the opposite shop with me to treat the wound , you can also sit down."

The girl stared at her seriously, then shook her head after a while, "Thank you sister, Cuiyun said I have to wait for her here, otherwise she won't be able to find me." She paused, then remembered something, and said : "My name is Luo Xin."

Shen Mingshu was startled, and looked at Luo Xin carefully. She never thought that she would meet Luo Xin so soon. After careful inspection, she could indeed notice that Luo Xin's reaction was a little slow, but she was not a fool as the rumors said.

Luo Xin looked at Shen Mingshu with some doubts. Her mother said that she was thankful for being helped by others. If the other party gave her name, she had to give her name too. But why did this sister still look at her?She shook the palm of the hand, it still hurt a little, but she couldn't cry.

Shen Mingshu chuckled, seeing Shen Li coming out to look for her, he raised his hand to beckon him over, and ordered: "You stay here, if you see someone looking for this girl, bring them to Linlang Pavilion."

Then she looked at Luo Xin, "I'll ask him to watch over you, and I promise that girl Cuiyun won't find you, so why don't you come and sit with me? The wound on your hand needs to be healed soon. .”

Luo Xin looked at Shen Mingshu, then at Shen Li, and after a while, asked hesitantly, "You promise?"

"Well, I promise." Shen Mingshu smiled and said affirmatively.

Luo Xin looked inside the jewelry store again, and finally nodded, "Okay."

Shen Mingshu led Luo Xin back to Linlang Pavilion, ordered the staff to fetch water and ointment, and treated Luo Xin's wound himself.

She rinsed the dust from the wound with clean water, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Luo Xin sat down obediently, asked her to wash it, and said, "A little bit, mother said blowing it won't hurt any more."

Shen Mingshu was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Qiu Wanniang should have taught her this, thinking of such a young child, losing his mother, and his unreliable father, who was also despised by his stepmother, felt pity in his heart, bowed his head gently Blowing on her palm, "It won't hurt anymore."

Luo Xin nodded with a smile, her eyebrows and eyes curved into crescent moons, and Shen Mingshu realized that there was still a slight dimple on her cheeks, and she couldn't help but feel lighter when she smiled.

And Lan Yin, who was standing on the side, looked astonished. She had been with Shen Mingshu since she was a child. When had she ever seen the eldest lady treat others' wounds so carefully, let alone brag about them.

After rinsing the wound, Shen Mingshu gently applied a cool ointment. This is an excellent ointment sold in Linlang Pavilion. The emerald green ointment has a faint fragrance. Applying it on the wound can prevent the wound from leaving scars.

Shen Mingshu's subordinates handled the wound gently, and washed his hands with clean water beside him.

Luo Xin thanked obediently and earnestly, "Thank you sister."

Shen Mingshu smiled, and ordered the waiter to bring some new pastries, "You must be tired from standing, try the pastries here."

Luo Xin looked at the exquisite cakes on the table, washed her hands, picked up a wishful roll, and then looked at Shen Mingshu to confirm that she was ready to eat, and then began to eat in small bites.

Luo Xin's expression was very focused, as if she was eating very delicious food, her movements were not rude and eager, obviously Qiu Wanniang taught her very well.

Shen Mingshu looked at it, and became interested, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, it was really good, cool and refreshing, with a touch of sweetness, but not too greasy, the dim sum chef's craftsmanship is good.

The two sat for a while, and then Shen Li, who was standing outside the jewelry shop, brought a maid over. Seeing the maid, Luo Xin let out a small ah, and stood up.

Shen Mingshu noticed this, his eyes dimmed, and he was a little displeased seeing the maid's respectful expression.

Cuiyun regretted in her heart, she just went in to buy something, and this fool followed others. She has always been good at observing words and demeanor, and she knew at a glance that the woman in front of her was of good status, so she quickly bowed to salute, "I have seen you, my little one." She is a servant girl of the Luo Mansion, I didn't expect the second miss to come out due to a moment of negligence, the second miss is not clear-headed, I am really sorry for disturbing the nobleman."

Shen Mingshu's complexion gradually turned cold, he didn't expect that a little maid would dare to say that about Miss, one can imagine what kind of life Luo Xin lived.

She said lightly: "I saw that your second young lady had closed eyes, and I couldn't bear to let her wait under the scorching sun, so I invited her to come and sit. Since you are here, take her back. I will visit you someday." .”

Cuiyun didn't know how this idiot fell in love with this nobleman, and even came to visit her. Originally, she thought that there was no way to deal with Luo Xin, but she only hoped that this nobleman would show mercy.

Cuiyun responded repeatedly, and wanted to lead Luo Xin away, but Luo Xin, who was always manipulative, was not pulled away by her, but turned her head and said goodbye to Shen Mingshu seriously, "Goodbye, sister, you must remember to come to my house when you go to my house." I'm playing."

Shen Mingshu looked into her clear eyes and smiled slightly, "Okay."

Only then did Luo Xin feel relieved and left. Although she was not smart, she also knew that Cuiyun was not good to her, and the elder sister was kind to her just now, applying cool ointment on her and buying her snacks. She's the best person ever.

Thinking of the afternoon spent with Shen Mingshu, Luo Xin twitched her fingertips, thinking that today is really a lucky day, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, with dimples on her cheeks.
