Seeing this, Shen Ming hurriedly pulled Song Ziling and Ling'er to stand aside.
When Xuanyuan Liufang saw the painting that Aunt Wang and the others were collecting, she couldn't help but glance at Shen Ming. He was standing in the middle just now. This painting was probably a birthday gift from him, and it was quite good.
Shen Ming had his head lowered, but when he noticed someone was looking at him, he raised his head and met Xuanyuan Liufang's eyes.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked away.
After Princess Ren walked into the house, she said to Mrs. Liu: "Old Madam, I wish you good health and long life, and endless blessings."
Mrs. Liu stood there with a somewhat awkward smile and said, "Thank you, thank you, Princess, for coming to wish me my birthday."
Xuanyuan Liufang blessed Mrs. Liu and said: "Liufang wishes the old lady a long life and good health."
Mrs. Liu didn't know what to say, so she could only say: "Thank you, Princess."
Lin Qingxue walked forward with a smile, made an invitation gesture, and said to Princess Ren and Princess Liufang, "Princess and Princess Liufang, please take your seats first!"
Lin Qingxue wanted to lead the two of them to sit down opposite Shen Wan, but Princess Liufang walked directly towards Shen Wan as if she didn't see the direction pointed by her hand.
"Long time no see, Mrs. Song. Are you feeling well?" Xuanyuan Liufang smiled and took Shen Wan's hand.
For those who didn’t know, I thought they were some kind of close friends!
Shen Wan smiled and said: "Princess Lao is worried, and she is already well."
Xuanyuan Liufang said: "That's good. I wanted to come and see you earlier, but my mother-in-law wouldn't let me come, saying that my coming would disturb your recuperation, so it's been postponed until today."
When everyone heard this, they thought, it turns out that the reason why the princess and princess came here is because of Mrs. Song! That’s right, Mrs. Song is the savior of Princess Liufang. Princess Ren and the princess can come to this old lady. Birthday congratulations, not just for the sake of Mrs. Song. So! This old lady still took advantage of her daughter-in-law.
Princess Ren also came over, looked at Shen Wan, and said with a smile: "Looking at you like this, you have almost taken care of yourself, but you still have to pay more attention in the future."
After all, she had suffered so much, so she had to be careful to avoid causing any illnesses. In this flower hall with a charcoal stove, she didn't even take off her cloak, which showed that she still felt cold.
Shen Wan smiled and said: "Thank you, Princess, for reminding me. I will definitely pay more attention to it in the future."
Lin Qingxue stood awkwardly behind the two of them. Although she was angry at Princess Ren and Princess Liufang for ignoring her, she still tried to keep smiling.
While they were talking, Chang, the wife of the Minister of Industry and Commerce, also came with her daughter Zhu Xiuhe. They first met with Princess Chongren and Princess Liufang, and then said some birthday wishes to Mrs. Liu, and then went to Lin Qing. Xue sat down at Xue's greeting. The two sat where Lin Qingxue originally wanted Princess Ren and her daughter to sit, while Princess Ren and the others sat down next to Shen Wan.
At this time, Song Ziling and Ling'er looked at each other, walked to the middle of the flower hall, and said to Mrs. Liu in unison: "My grandson wishes that grandma may be as blessed as the East China Sea, live longer than the Southern Mountains, be healthy and live long, and everything goes well."
After saying that, the two of them took out the birthday gifts they had prepared. Ling'er had a pair of fluffy rabbit fur gloves in his hands, and Song Ziling had a half-arm-long scroll in his hands.
Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "Good boy, you are thoughtful." She was not dissatisfied with this birthday gift. Her grandson's birthday gift was not expensive, but only about his thoughtfulness. Those furry gloves looked warm, and she needed them too.
"What did Zi Ling give to your grandma?" Lin Qingxue looked at Song Zi Ling and asked with a smile.
Ever since Song Ziling saw Lin Qingxue's change of expression, he didn't want to talk to her. But with so many guests here today, he really couldn't ignore him.
So he replied: "It's just a picture of a hundred years of longevity."
