Several people came forward to exchange greetings, and the old man personally introduced several people to Huangfu Jin and others, including his right-hand assistant, close confidants, and several adopted sons.
"Er Quanzi is still busy with business outside. He didn't come back in time. He can't meet the prince. Please atone for your sins."
Shen Fankong's words were humble, but his demeanor was very proud, and there was no hint of humility at all.
This is the dignity that comes from being pampered all year round.
Huangfu Jin smiled and said, "The old man is too polite. We have said that there is no need to be polite. It is just a frequent visit like friends, and it is not the court's business. So there is no need to use court etiquette. Even if you are a prince, you should You have to have a few close friends."
Huangfujin said this, which undoubtedly gave the Shen family a lot of face. Mr. Shen smiled cheerfully and invited Huangfujin and Su Mo to sit down.
Huangfujin took the seat, but Su Mo refused, so she sat down and started to do it.
She took a look and saw that among the people the old man had brought, two were his legitimate sons, the eldest and the third, and the second was busy outside.
The remaining ones were accompanied by a few polite shopkeepers and his adopted son, who just followed them to support and serve them.
They did not dare to sit at the same table as Huangfu Jin, but waited on him at another table.
As far as Su Mo knew, the old man should have a few sons. Although they were all concubines, there were a few who were very popular with him.
I don't know why I refuse to let them show up.
And Shen Jingjing didn't come either.
After a while, Wei Anliang hurried over, followed by Shen Jingjing.
The old man raised his eyebrows slightly, looking a little cold, and glanced at Shen Jingjing.
Shen Jingjing pouted, glanced at them, stepped forward quickly, and walked to the old man's side, "Dad, I want to come too."
The old man glanced at Wei Anliang and knew that he came late because he was entangled by Jingjing. The boy didn't know how to refuse, so he naturally brought him here.
If he dares to make a fool of himself later, he will put the blame on Wei Anliang.
His meaningful look made Wei Anliang feel a little bit nervous, so he had to greet Huangfujin and the others in a nonchalant manner, accusing himself of being late, and punishing himself with three drinks.
Shen Jingjing glanced at him, then looked at Su Mo and Huangfu Jin, "Wei Anliang, what are you in a hurry? Is there anything to be punished? Sit down quickly. We are not outsiders. We are traveling with the prince and Miss Su. Everyone We are all good friends, who cares about that with you?"
In order to prevent her from saying more outrageous things, Wei Anliang quickly sat down.
