2066. Chapter 2066 It's not what it used to be [10]
Although Shen Mingxuan wanted to refuse, she did not dare to disobey the old lady, so she could only look at Shen Yunluo for help.
Shen Yunluo then said: "Second sister, don't be afraid, just go. If she comes, that would be the best. If she doesn't come, it would be rude on her part. It has nothing to do with you, just come back."
Shen Mingxuan saw that Shen Yunluo refused to speak for her, so she had no choice but to do so.
After Shen Mingxuan left, Shen Yunluo said to the old lady: "Old lady, did you say Shen Mingzhu is back?"
The old lady hummed: "Whether she comes or not, she must know that the Shen family still has me, the old lady, and she is just a granddaughter. Even if she leaves the Shen Mansion and becomes the princess, she is from the Shen family. .She can’t even think about taking advantage of the princess. Besides, since you are Pei Ruolan’s daughter, you have given her a huge favor. Naturally, she will have to express it. When you marry the eldest prince, she will also You should know what you are going to do in the future.”
They think well, but the reality is naturally not so good.
Because Shen Mingzhu had no intention of coming at all, she handled some things in Cuizhuyuan and then stopped seeing the guests, just waiting for Xiao Xian to come over.
Shen Mingxuan went back and told the old lady that she had been rejected. She was not even allowed to enter through the courtyard door. The old lady Shen was so angry that she banged her crutches and said, "I rebelled against her. Does she really think she is some kind of royal princess? I Bah, if it weren't for my Shen family, how would she be where she is today? Go and have someone deliver a message to the master, and if he's not busy, tell him to come back quickly."
After giving the instructions, she said to Shen Yunluo: "Send someone to send a message to your uncle, third uncle and fourth uncle, asking them to bring people over for dinner as soon as possible. Although it won't be until the end of the day, our princess will return from her mission to the Kingdom of Jin. , I have to catch the wind no matter what, it’s just a good time for the whole family to get together.”
Shen Yunluo went to do it immediately and found a reliable mother-in-law to send a message. Soon each family sent servants to reply, saying that they would come over to pay their respects to the old lady soon after cleaning up.
The old lady ordered: "Remember to bring all the young masters and ladies at home."
The servants all took orders and went back.
The old lady naturally has her own plans. Now that the Shen family has a princess, she must make good use of this opportunity.
Shen Mingzhu's status as princess should be used to directly enhance the status of the Shen family's children.
There was still an hour before lunch, and as expected, the elder and others came together, all dressed up.
The eldest wife and the fourth wife both brought gifts, but the third wife didn’t bring anything. When they met, she was surprised and said: "Oh, you all brought gifts? I thought I was just here for a casual meal, so I didn’t bring any gifts." "
With that said, she went to see what gifts the eldest wife and the fourth wife had brought.
Mrs. Chu, the fourth wife, had always disliked the third wife, who was both greedy for money and good-looking, and was afraid that others would say she was stingy.
Every time she ate, she ate and took away things, but never brought anything with her.
Sometimes when I need to give a gift, I will even agree with the two of them to give her one so as not to look too ugly.
At other times, Mrs. Chu would have tolerated it, but this time was Shen Mingzhu's first gathering after she was granted the title of Princess Princess and sent to the Kingdom of Jin as an envoy. Mrs. Chu did not want to indulge her.
Last year, when Shen Mingzhu was granted the title of princess, there should have been a gathering, but because of Mrs. Liu's matter, the government did not take care of it, so no one mentioned it.
