As they chatted on the way, they arrived at the entrance of the hall of the Commander's Mansion.
As soon as they arrived, Shen Wanqing heard a record playing from the phonograph in the hall. It was a sharp and mellow Beijing accent. Shen Wanqing could tell that it was "The Legend of the White Snake".
She looked over and saw a white-haired old lady sitting on a red sandalwood chair. She was listening to the opera quietly with her eyes closed.
She was wearing a long green dress. She looked conservative but dignified and luxurious. She wore a white jade bracelet on her wrist that rested on her knees. Although her hair was already white, the old granny was still as delicate as ever. This delicate and dignified temperament could not be faked by ordinary people. She was elegant in her bones.
The servant girl standing beside Old Madame saw the old housekeeper and Shen Wanqing walking over. The servant girl was about to bend over and speak to Old Madame. The old housekeeper quickly waved his hand and motioned for the servant girl to leave.
The maidservant nodded her head when she saw this. Then, she walked to the side with light footsteps.
The old housekeeper whispered to Shen Wanqing, "Miss Shen, please wait at the door for a while. I will inform the old lady."
"Okay." Shen Wanqing nodded. She stood quietly at the door and waited.
The old housekeeper went in. He walked to the old lady and whispered in her ear, "Old lady, Miss Shen is here."
The old lady, who was resting with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were clear and bright. She asked slowly, "Who is it?"
"Miss Shen." The old housekeeper explained, "She is the girl who saved the second master last time."
The old lady suddenly realized, "Oh, it's her!"
Seeing that the old lady was about to sit up, the old housekeeper quickly reached out to support the old lady's arm. The old lady smiled, "Look at my memory. I forgot everything after taking a nap. I am old and useless!"
"Old lady, you are still young!" The old housekeeper supported the old lady and smiled.
The old lady shook her head and smiled, "Don't talk about it. Where is the little girl? Let her in. Don't wait outside for too long."
"Oh, okay." The old butler nodded. "This old servant will go and call Miss Shen in."
Shen Wanqing, who had been waiting at the door, waited for a while before the old housekeeper came over. The old housekeeper came over with a smile. "Miss Shen, have you waited for a long time? Come with me, Old Madam is waiting for you inside! "
Shen Wanqing nodded and followed the old housekeeper inside.
After entering the main hall, Shen Wanqing walked over and glanced at Old Madam. She lowered her eyes and greeted Old Madam obediently, "Hello, Old Madam."
Old Madam was surprised to see the girl brought in by the old housekeeper. She had never seen Shen Wanqing before. She only knew that the girl who saved Yan Xiu was an actress in an opera troupe.
Actresses were heartless and affectionate. Not only were they good-looking, but they also had a natural charm to them. This was also why the world was so prejudiced against entertainers.
Originally, the Old Madam thought that Shen Wanqing was also like this, but she didn't expect that it was completely different from what she had imagined.
She was indeed good-looking, but she wasn't charming. Qingqing was delicate and looked like a well-behaved and sensible girl at first glance.
The old lady nodded and waved at the girl. "Come, don't just stand there. Come and sit beside me."
The girl seemed to be stunned. The old lady stood up and took the girl's hand. "Come, sit." She led the girl to sit beside her.
The old lady handed over a plate of osmanthus cake on the table. "Are you tired from walking here? Come, have a piece of osmanthus cake and rest. "
