Chapter 690: Feudal Remnants
Chapter 690: Feudal Remnants
"Ah Qian, A Yuan, you are finally back."
Shen Hang led everyone forward to greet them.
Shen Qian nodded towards Shen Lanxi, then turned his gaze back to the crowd with a gentle expression, "It's so hot, why don't you wait inside?"
Shen Hang wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said, "We just arrived. You guys have finally come back, so we can't neglect you. Hahahaha."
Jiang Huashan was holding a parasol with the poor little thing in her arms, and she became pale after standing there for a while.
The people in the old house had a lot of rules, and since she had just arrived and didn't want to make any effort, she didn't rush them and just stood quietly by the side waiting to go into the house to see Grandma Wu.
After exchanging greetings, the group turned their attention to Jiang Huashan.
"Is this Shanshan?"
In fact, the elders of the tribe had already noticed Jiang Huashan as soon as she got off the bus.
Although the Shen Zhuang lineage holds an extraordinary status in the clan, there is no reason for the elders of each branch to take the initiative to greet her.
Everyone waited for a while, but Jiang Huashan didn't take the initiative to come forward to show goodwill, so Shen Hang pretended not to care and asked deliberately.
Shen Qian's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Jiang Huashan with a smile, "Shanshan, these are the elders of the family, come over and greet them."
Jiang Huashan smiled and walked forward lazily, "Hello, uncles."
What kind of attitude is this?
Shen Hang frowned slightly, raised his eyes to look at Shen Qian, and forced a smile, "Jinggang is really a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. Shanshan is getting more and more beautiful."
Jiang Huashan smiled even more perfunctorily.
In the eyes of this cousin, it is wrong for a woman to be too beautiful. If he praises someone for being pretty, he is calling that person a vixen.
In his previous life, if he hadn't inexplicably disliked her, those aunts wouldn't have taken such good care of her.
To be fair, Jiang Huashan's attitude was not bad. She was much more obedient than when she was in Shen Garden. However, the uncles and aunts in the old house were used to seeing puppets being disciplined and obedient. Even though Jiang Huashan had restrained herself, in their eyes she was already "treasonous".
For example, now, the elders are all under the scorching sun, but she, a junior, is still holding an umbrella. Not only that, even the turtle in her arms is wearing a floral dress and sunglasses. The animal is more precious than humans, which is simply immoral.
Shen Hang was about to scold him when Shen Lanxi beside him suddenly said, "My cousin is still waiting in the house. Let's go in first."
When the eldest son of the family spoke, everyone had to give him some respect. They immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Lan Xi is right. Let's go in and talk."
Shen Qian stepped forward with a smile, "Lan Xi, how are you? Are you still able to handle the military training?"
Shen Lanxi said calmly, "Master takes good care of me. Everything is fine."
Shen Yuan followed behind him and couldn't help feeling jealous. Your father is Shen Xi, and those division commanders are all your father's subordinates, so of course they are nice to you.
The Shen family members all understood each other tacitly, and surrounded Shen Lanxi and Shen Qian, and the group walked towards the main house in a mighty manner.
Jiang Huashan rolled his eyes and waited until he was some distance away from the crowd before slowly catching up.
After entering the main courtyard, a group of people went directly to the main reception hall. According to the rules of the old house, there would inevitably be a bunch of meaningless greetings and nonsense.
Jiang Huashan immediately turned around and waved to the manager of the front yard.
"How is Grandma now? Is she conscious? Is it convenient for me to visit her?"
"Miss Jiang, you are finally here. Grandma will definitely be very happy to know you are here."
When Jiang Huashan stayed in the old house before, the servants and housekeepers knew that Grandma Wu liked Miss Jiang very much, so they did not hide anything and led the way directly.
Shen Hang was leading the way in front. When he saw Jiang Huashan actually followed the housekeeper to the backyard by herself, he immediately looked displeased.
This is too unruly.
He cleared his throat and raised his voice, "Shanshan, the main hall is this way."
As soon as he spoke, everyone stopped and looked at him with extremely oppressive eyes.
The housekeeper was suddenly startled and stopped immediately.
Jiang Huashan frowned and looked at Shen Hang across the corridor.
Because Shen Lanxi and Shen Qian were present, Shen Hang forced a smile and said, "Your great-uncle is still waiting in the main hall. Why don't you meet him first and then follow his instructions?"
Do you still have to follow the arrangements after the meeting?
Jiang Huashan was almost laughing out of anger. The last time she came to Jinggang Harbor, she was protected by Grandma Wu, and she almost forgot that there were such a group of feudal remnants in the old house.
In her previous life, she took the initiative to come to the old house to learn the rules, so she had no choice but to be controlled by them.
But in this life, she is not the young lady of the Shen family, so why should she endure this kind of humiliation?
Jiang Huashan put away her umbrella and said lazily, "I'm here to see my great-grandmother, not my cousin."
When Shen Zhuang was not around, Shen Jun was the most senior elder in the Shen family. Jiang Huashan was so rude that the Shen family members immediately changed their expressions.
"What are you talking about? Who told you to talk to your elders like that? Are there any rules?"
Jiang Huashan sneered. She hadn't even used her full strength yet, but these remnants reacted so strongly. They were too impatient.
Shen Hang suppressed his anger and turned to look at Shen Lanxi and Shen Qian.
Shen Qian smiled faintly and didn't respond.
Jiang Huashan is now protected by the old man. Anyone who touches him in Shenyuan will die. He doesn't want to get into trouble for such a small matter.
"Gao Zhi." Shen Lanxi said lightly.
Everyone's anger immediately turned into joy. Shen Lanxi attached great importance to rules and would definitely teach this girl a lesson.
"Take her to Grandma's yard."
"..."
It was too early to be happy. The surprise in Shen Hang's eyes shattered on the spot. He looked at Shen Lanxi with a surprised face.
Going to my great-grandmother’s yard? Shouldn’t the punishment be kneeling in the ancestral hall?
"Yes."
Gao Zhi flashed in front of Jiang Huashan, adjusted his sunglasses with a serious expression, bent down and made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Huashan.
"Miss Jiang, come with me."
Jiang Huashan glanced at Shen Lanxi, snorted coldly, and turned to walk towards the inner courtyard.
You still dare to humph Shen Lanxi?!
Shen Hang's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Shen Lanxi with the eyes of someone who had just read a ghost story. No, when did Shen Lanxi's temper become so good?
Shen Qian and Shen Yuan also had serious expressions, but unlike Shen Hang's confusion, their calculations were deeper.
Shen Lanxi has always been unkind, but now he is so tolerant of Jiang Huashan. Sure enough, this guy is also secretly trying to win over the third room.
*
Shen Jun hadn't seen Shen Qian and Shen Yuan for a long time, so they couldn't help but talk more after meeting again after such a long separation.
The old house had not been so lively for a long time. Shen Jun was happy and arranged for several relatives in the clan to have a reunion dinner together.
Grandma Wu's mental strength was as strong as before, and she was only awake for a few hours a day. Jiang Huashan stayed by her side for the entire afternoon, but she didn't even open her eyes.
As dinner time approached, someone from the outer courtyard came and told her to go to the main hall to eat. Jiang Huashan was reluctant to go at first, but then she thought that she would be living here for a while and would have to deal with the remnants of feudalism in the future, so she might as well clear the way once and for all, so she readily agreed.
She deliberately arrived ten minutes late, and the main hall was already crowded with people and brightly lit.
There were four tables in the hall, three in the main hall, all occupied by men, and one in the side hall, all occupied by women.
As Jiang Huashan stepped over the threshold, a well-dressed lady came forward and took her hand affectionately.
"Is this Shanshan? She changes so much when she grows up. I almost couldn't recognize her."
Seeing Jiang Huashan staring at her, the woman smiled and said, "I am the second daughter-in-law of your cousin's family. You can call me Second Aunt. Our table is over there. I will take you there."
