Chapter 62

"Second brother, do you like it?"

In the garden pavilion north of Weilanju, Shen Qingxi was handing the prepared Pisces water sachet to Shen Jiahong.

Shen Jiahong touched the little fish embroidered with gold thread and his eyes were full of joy, "I like it! I like it! How come the fish painted by the eldest sister is golden? Hong'er has never seen a golden fish before -"

Shen Qingxi lovingly held Shen Jiahong in her arms, and hung the sachet on Shen Jiahong's waist with her own hands, "Because, only a golden fish can be worthy of Hong'er, and Hong'er will be able to leap over the dragon's gate in the future."

"What is Fish Leaping over the Dragon Gate?"

Seeing that Shen Jiahong couldn't put down the sachet he embroidered, Shen Qingxi also burst out with a smile from the bottom of her heart, "That's right... Hong'er will become very, very powerful, more powerful than anyone else in our house."

"More powerful than dad?"

Shen Jiahong asked innocently, and the smile on Shen Qingxi's face did not diminish, but she snorted softly in her heart, "Who is Shen Huai?! He only got the position of prime minister by relying on the old prime minister's shadow!"

"As long as Hong'er works hard, it's very possible to become better than her father!"

Shen Jiahong seemed to understand. Mother Wei stood aside and said with a smile, "It's hard for the eldest lady to value the second young master so much, but it's hard to say this. The prime minister is the Prime Minister of Zhou..."

Shen Qingxi raised her eyes and looked at Mother Wei with a half-smile, "Hong'er is young, adults should encourage him more. Grandma and father love him because they want their son to succeed. Why does Mother Wei think Hong'er is unworthy?"

Mother Wei's expression changed, "I don't dare, I love the second young master the most! Naturally, I hope that the second young master will fly into the sky."

Shen Qingxi chuckled lightly, "I have put these plums away. Remember, you must not let the second young master eat too much. It's time for me to go back and take a nap. You can play with the second young master for a while."

Mother Wei responded repeatedly and watched respectfully as Shen Qingxi's back disappeared behind the corner of the flower wall.

Shen Qingxi had just turned the corner, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Fifth Miss Shen Qinghui and Aunt An coming not far ahead.

Aunt An was described as beautiful and charming. Now she is nearly thirty and has given birth to two more children, but she still looks as beautiful and delicate as a woman in her twenties. The fifth lady, Shen Qinghui, described her as being just like An. Auntie, although she is dull and seldom talks, her facial features are very delicate and spiritual. If she dresses up a little, she will definitely look extraordinary.

It seemed that they did not expect to meet Shen Qingxi here, and both Aunt An and Shen Qinghui were slightly surprised.

"Sister——"

"Greetings to the eldest lady——"

The two of them saluted, and Shen Qingxi smiled and said, "Why are fifth sister and aunt here?"

Aunt An cautiously stood behind Shen Qinghui. Shen Qinghui smiled and said, "Just now someone said that my second brother fell in the flower garden. Aunt An and I were worried, so we came over to take a look."

Shen Qingxi looked calm and looked back towards the pavilion, "Just now, my second brother slipped slightly and was hugged by me, but he didn't fall. I think one of the servants looked left and went to report it, which made you worry."

After she finished speaking, Shen Qingxi suddenly made a sound, "What are you doing, Mother Wei?"

Yuzhu followed and looked over, surprised, "Why did she pour out all the plums that the young lady gave to the second young master! Those are the best red jade plums in the entire Yong'an City that the young lady bought at Shiweixuan!"

Shiwei Xuan's Hua Mei is made from pickled Taizhou ripe yellow plums that are as plump and bright as red jade, so it is also called Hong Jade Hua Mei. It is the favorite preserve of the Queen Mother. Aunt An and Shen Qinghui couldn't help but look at it with gratitude. Shen Qingxi and Shen Qinghui even said, "The eldest sister has spent a lot of money, and the second brother is too young to eat well."

Shen Qingxi smiled and said, "My second brother doesn't need to know whether it's good or bad, he just needs to find it sweet and delicious."

With that said, Shen Qinghui and Aunt An also looked in the direction of the pavilion.
