In the early autumn, the geese from the North line up as it flew across the skies towards the warmer South. The lush summer foliage in the courtyard had begun to wither in autumn and the coloured fishes in the pond looked much calmer than usual.
The young female's ink black hair was combed into a deer bun and secured by a delicate coral hairpin as she wore a dark red outfit with clouds and geese embroidered, bringing out her slim and exquisite body.
Bai Lu draped the embroidered cloak gently over Shen Lisa's body and said, "Young Lady's health has yet to recover and must be careful not to catch a cold."
Shen Lisa shook her head.
Her stature was still small and was not as tall as Shen Yue and Shen Qing. Her face was also rounded and combined with her usual cowardly characteristics, she seemed to be a few years younger than her actual age, just reaching eleven or twelve years old.
But today, she was somewhat different.
Shuang Jiang watched by the side and felt somewhat peculiar in her heart.
The young female's complexion was fair and seeing that she was small and petite, without even a smile on her face, did not look cold or foolish but was somewhat indifferent and one could feel some sense of missing as she looked into the skies. She was standing like before but was somewhat dignified, like she had gain a unique air overnight and there was a sense of grace in the atmosphere.
Shuang Jiang shook her head as if it could wipe the absurd thought from her mind. She smiled and looked towards Shen Lisa, "What is Young Lady looking at?"
After having her breakfast, Shen Lisa stood at the courtyard looking at the sky in a trance.
"Was just thinking if these wild geese that flew from the North to the South, will pass by the Northwest desert." Shen Lisa softly said.
The Northwest desert was the region where Shen Xin was guarding and also where Shen Furen and Eldest Shen Young Master was at. Last month when they wrote back, the capital just got colder but all kinds of grace were withered and broken and a little snow were forming.
"Young Lady is missing Master and Furen." Shuang Jiang smiled, "When till the end of the year Master will return and see that Young Lady had grown taller again, he would be so happy."
Shen Lisa smiled as she felt somewhat bitter at the edges of her lips.
The Great General can only return once a year and upon his return, the first thing he face was that his own daughter did not know shame and made a joke by rushing to be a wife herself and force marriage upon others. How happy could he be?
Not to mention the one that she was obsessed to marry was a vile person who only wanted to use the Shen family army to fight for the throne. The fight for the throne was a messy affair and the Shen family was not willing to interfere but unfortunately was dragged into it by her blinded love and ended up with an ending of destruction of the entire clan.
Shen Lisa closed her eyes.
It was just a short time of half a year but it was enough for so many things to happen. Since she reached a marriageable age, her marriage had become a matter that the East courtyard to use against as leverage. It seemingly started from this year that the East courtyard removed the disguise of the evil beast and forced her to a dead end step by step, unable to return.
"Young Lady, Young Lady?" Bai Lu saw that little mistress's expression was different as she clutched the cape so tightly that her fingers turn white, so she softly called out.
Shen Lisa recovered to her senses and saw Gu Yun jogging over, "Young Lady, Rong Jing Tang there have come over to hasten."
Rong Jing Tang was where Old Shen Furen stayed. Early in the morning a maid by Old Furen's side came over to see Shen Lisa and when she saw that Shen Lisa was unhindered, she say to go over to Old Furen's to perform greeting when her health is better. Was it in face a greeting or to condemn with more people at her side, who weren't aware of it?
