First, he entrusted the dream to Mrs. Hong, and now the spiritual tablet fell. Bian
Mrs. Shen finally saw clearly that her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Guo, really hated this matter. If she persisted in going her own way, she would provoke Mrs. Guo's revenge. She was old and could not withstand such a fright. At this time, Mrs. Shen She completely gave up on the idea of making her second granddaughter a named legitimate daughter. She was also slightly dissatisfied with Shen Jingying. She only gave Jingying a ruby gold hairpin, but not a white jade hairpin.
Could it be that Aunt Ke secretly took this white jade hairpin from the warehouse? Or maybe she followed Cong Yu and coaxed Cong Yu into giving this hairpin to their mother and daughter. No matter what the reason was, she couldn't bear it. . Do the mother and daughter still take her seriously?
No wonder Mrs. Guo was so reluctant, it turned out that mother and daughter had already drifted away.
No matter how much dissatisfaction there is in my heart, after all, she is the only girl of school age in the family, and today is the hairpin gift for this child, so she still has to give her some face. Considering that Jingying is still young, she is indeed filial to her. For her own sake, Mrs. Shen still spoke up to make up for her granddaughter.
"I gave that hairpin to Jingying. I thought that if Jingying could learn some of the virtues of her aunt, I would feel relieved, but I didn't expect that everyone would misunderstand Jingying. Jingying has always been a good child, and she treats Guo The family respects Rumu very much."
Although she said this, it was obvious that not many people would believe her. If this was the reason, Mrs. Shen would not have thought for a while before resolving the situation, and Shen Jingying would not have been so frightened that she turned pale just now.
A thought emerged in the minds of many female relatives: Therefore, women should be kind to themselves and live a long life. Otherwise, even concubines can take away their beloved things after death. Think about it, it is not an ordinary injustice. Bian
They all suspected that Shen Jingying's cutting of meat to feed eagles some time ago was purely for show, and she was just trying to gain a good reputation for herself.
From now on, the Shen family should have less contact with each other - such a family has a bad family tradition.
Shen Jingying was naturally aware of the change in everyone's attitude, and felt panicked and anxious. Today was obviously supposed to be her most glorious day...why did it change?
She tried hard to appear submissive, but the other female relatives still treated her coldly and indifferently.
Mrs. Shen said: "Today is your birthday, Jingying. Grandma, I have a gift for you. Please help me to the house."
Shen Jingying hurriedly stepped forward to help her grandmother - the blow she received was worth it.
The nun beside Mrs. Shen stayed to entertain the female family members.
After entering the house, Mrs. Shen said: "Your mother's spiritual tablet fell down in the ancestral hall. It seems that she is really unwilling to let you bear her name. Let's leave it at that."
Shen Jingying was stunned, "Could it have been blown by the wind?"
Mrs. Shen said: "The windows and doors of the ancestral hall are closed. Where is the wind coming from? The maid guarding the door heard the noise and opened the door and saw the tablets falling down."
"If you insist on recording it in her name, I'm afraid there will be more trouble later. Have you forgotten that Mrs. Guo entrusted her with a dream?" Mrs. Shen also had resentment towards Mrs. Guo. She wanted to If it was a dream, why would you entrust someone else's dream? Why not entrust it to her? This was simply tearing apart the Shen family's family scandal in front of others. She had not been so embarrassed for several years. She didn't want anything more embarrassing to happen again.
The title of legitimate daughter that was about to be obtained flew away before her eyes. This was a huge blow to Shen Jingying.
Originally, she did not believe in the so-called retribution of ghosts and gods. Otherwise, her aunt had been dead for so many years, and she and her aunt were still not living well. They could even trample the only flesh and blood of the Guo family into the mud, and they would never be able to stand up again.
But after what she experienced today, she couldn't help but start to panic. Bian
Is it possible that the so-called retribution is really coming?
She thought of her aunt who never came back, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.
Shen Jingying pursed her lips and said, "My aunt went out to buy cakes for me this morning, but she hasn't come back yet."
Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment and frowned, "You can't make a big fuss about her aunt. Let's wait until the hairpin ceremony is over before looking for her."
"You can't make any more mistakes today." Her sharp eyes were fixed on Shen Jingying.
Shen Jingying didn't dare to disobey and said yes.
For fear of suspicion from the guests outside, Mrs. Shen and Shen Jingying did not stay in the house for long and came out soon.
When she came out, Shen Jingying had an jade table in her hand - this was Mrs. Shen's hairpin gift to her granddaughter, and it had to be a trap. Speaking of jade bracelets, their value in the past was not as good as white jade and rubies. But because Su Yueling liked it , and even jadeite became highly sought after by the powerful in the capital, and the price went up.
When the time comes, the hair-raising ceremony proceeds in an orderly manner.
Mrs. Hong saw that the Shen family seemed to have given up their original attention to registering names, so she stopped making trouble.
It's just that without the original part of opening the ancestral hall and registering the name, Shen Jingying couldn't help but feel a little unmotivated. She was still thinking about her aunt's whereabouts, so she just managed to keep herself up in front of others.
When the ceremony was over and the banquet was about to begin, someone from the palace came.
Seeing the angel holding the bright yellow imperial edict in her hand, Mrs. Shen, who was originally a little sleepy, suddenly became energetic.
To be able to receive an imperial edict at the Ji Banquet, there are not many noble girls in the capital who can have such dignity and scenery (not counting Princess Qionghua, who was at the pinnacle of life since she was born). Bian
Could it be that this imperial edict was the emperor’s decree for marriage?
Thinking of that possibility, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but smile, and knelt down to receive the order.
Shen Jingying also immediately thought of finger marriage. Her eyes couldn't help but fall on the woman in official uniform behind the angel - she looked like she was from the Imperial Hospital, could she be the female doctor in the palace.
Because of their presence, the other female relatives also knelt down and saluted. They really didn't expect that Shen Jingying's wedding banquet would alarm the palace. Is it possible that the Shen family really wants to give birth to a crown prince?
The angel unfolded the imperial edict, which praised Shen Jingying's filial piety to her grandmother. Those words of praise made Shen Jingying finally let go of her worries, leaving only excitement and expectation.
The next step is to canonize her...
The next moment, her smile froze.
"...I will give Dr. Fang a gift to treat the illness and recuperate the second lady of the Shen family. I will also give you white jade ointment and gold sore medicine..."
The palace attendant at the back was holding bottles of ointment with a friendly smile.
When the angel finished reading the content of the imperial edict, Mrs. Shen was not ordinary disappointed - she only sent a female doctor and some medicinal materials as a reward. Why not a marriage?
After the loss, she immediately comforted herself. The daughter of another family was injured, but the emperor did not reward her with good ointment. This shows that Jingying's filial piety is still in the eyes of the royal family. The Shen family still has a chance!
Kneeling on the ground, the blood on Shen Jingying's face faded inch by inch, and her hands and feet were cold.
There is only a scar on her leg, where the wound came from. As soon as the female doctor removes the cloth, her lie will be nakedly displayed in front of the public.
