After hesitating, she reached out to pick it up. Unexpectedly, before she could catch it, Shen Mingzhu let go of her hand, and the brocade box fell to the ground with a bang, and the gifts inside rolled out.
It turned out to be a pair of jade bracelets broken into four parts. Although the quality is not the best, the water quality is not bad. It is more than enough for a concubine to wear.
But such a pair of bracelets were broken, which was really unlucky and a waste of things. All the girls and women felt a pity in their hearts.
The brocade box fell, everyone was shocked, Shen Mingzhu was trembling, Shen Mingxuan was furious, and immediately accused, "Shen Mingzhu, what do you mean, you don't want to give it to me, do you? I don't care about such a pair of tattered bracelets.
!”
Shen Mingzhu immediately burst into tears. She suppressed the laughter in her chest and said softly: "Second sister, this is what Uncle Seventh and the others prepared for everyone. It was not given by me. Even if I wanted to give it away, I don't have the strength.
We have planned everything we eat and drink, only two pieces of clothing a year, and all the things we collected with great difficulty before we left. Where can I find gifts? If my second sister doesn’t want this bracelet, then I don’t want it. Why bother to deliberately break it just to embarrass me?
It’s broken!”
When Shen Mingxuan heard this, she became furious and raised her hand to slap Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Mingzhu hid casually, making it look like she was unable to dodge and was powerless, but in fact Shen Mingxuan's slap was in vain because she used too much force, causing her to tilt and bump into Qiu Hong, the girl next to her.
On the body.
Qiu Hong suddenly hit the flower table with too much force. With a "snap", the pot of begonias on it hit the ground, and the blue and white porcelain flower pot was smashed to pieces.
Qiu Hong was afraid that Madam would blame her, so she simply fell to the ground. "Oops," she was pricked by a fragment, and her palms were a little bloodshot.
After this unexpected incident, the girls helped her up again and cleaned up the mess on the floor.
Mrs. Liu had a gloomy face, and the others were just waiting to watch the show. Aunt Zhao was so anxious that beads of sweat broke out on her forehead. She hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mingxuan, this girl is just noisy. She wants to get close to the eldest lady when she sees her. She is too eager."
some."
With that said, he quickly stepped forward and pulled Shen Mingxuan over, so that she would not continue to embarrass Shen Mingzhu.
In fact, the gifts prepared by the Shen family's old residence are nothing special to the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they may not be rare to everyone.
But doing it this way is very unsightly, and without etiquette, it will be criticized.
Shen Mingzhu immediately showed a calming attitude and bowed to Mrs. Liu, "Madam, the second sister didn't mean it, she was just joking with me. Don't be angry."
She behaves in a submissive manner, understands the general situation, and considers the overall situation, but she is much more polite than Shen Mingxuan's arrogance and domineering attitude.
After saying that, he smiled at Shen Mingxuan: "Second sister, why don't you come and apologize to Madam?"
She was giving orders to Shen Mingxuan as if she were the eldest daughter, making Shen Mingxuan so angry that she could hardly breathe, but it would be rude if she didn't go over at this time.
Shen Mingxuan glared at Shen Mingzhu angrily, "You obviously did it on purpose!"
She also wanted to complain to Madam, but she met Madam Liu's cold eyes, which contained a warning. Shen Mingxuan had no choice but to go over angrily and salute perfunctorily.
Mrs. Liu suppressed her anger and wanted to teach them a lesson, but she didn't want to openly quarrel with them. She had many ways to make them suffer unspeakably.
