But he didn't know how to explain it to the old lady, because he had no way to force Shen Mingzhu in the past. Now that Shen Mingzhu is the princess and can move out of the Shen Mansion at any time, he has no way to ask her for anything.
Shen Can hesitated at the door and said, "Tell your eldest lady that I have something to say to her."
The woman laughed along with her and said very respectfully, "Sir, the eldest lady has gone out to play for a day and is already very tired. She has rested now, so let's do it tomorrow."
Played for a day?
Shen Can had a headache. When the old lady asked the eldest lady to wait for someone to come, didn't she say she needed a good rest when she was tired, but she ended up going out to play again.
Shen Can sighed.
At this time, a girl's laughter like silver bells came from the yard, and it turned out to be Shen Mingfu and Princess Xue'er.
Shen Can immediately had an idea and said: "Since Princess Xue'er has come to our Shen family, how can we not entertain her? As a master, I naturally have to entertain you. Go tell the Fourth Miss and Princess Xue'er, I’ll go to the old lady’s place for breakfast tomorrow so that we can all get together, and I’ll also introduce Princess Xue’er.”
The woman immediately took the order and went to report it.
Shen Can thought he had found a feasible solution, so he stopped worrying and got up and went back to his yard.
The main courtyard of the Shen Mansion was empty because of Mrs. Liu's arrest, and now no one lives there. He rarely goes back.
Nowadays, he often goes to Bai Xian'er's yard, and occasionally to Aunt Luo's.
Aunt He used to help in Cuizhuyuan. Although he didn't stay with her for a long time, he and Aunt He talked from time to time, and the common topics mostly revolved around their children.
In the past, he could enter and leave Cuizhuyuan at will, but now that Shen Mingzhu is back, everything has returned to the past, and everything seems to be cold.
Shen Can couldn't help but sigh.
When Aunt Bai saw this, she smiled and said, "Master, what's going on?"
Shen Can said dullly: "It's nothing."
Aunt Bai helped him into the house and changed his clothes herself. "Master, I have nothing to hide. How can I not know about the affairs in the house? It's just because of the conflict between the eldest lady and the old lady."
Shen Can didn't say anything, took off his coat, and sat on the couch barefoot in only his middle coat, lost in thought.
Aunt Bai stepped forward and changed him into light cloth shoes. She also took a home-made light and soft coat and put it on him. She persuaded him: "Why do you always worry, sir? There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Besides, As the saying goes, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so don't do anything for them. The eldest lady is such a determined person, and everything will be measured and will never go wrong. I don't have to worry too much at all."
Shen Can heard what she said was right. He didn't expect that Bai Xian'er, who was a little superficial at first, could say such a thing. He smiled and said, "Let someone tell Zhou Chong that you will ask for leave tomorrow. I will be there." Take a day off at home and spend some time with the children."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xian'er immediately said: "Master, there will be a reunion banquet tomorrow."
Shen Can nodded, "Let me introduce Princess Xue'er for breakfast tomorrow. She's here and I didn't go over to say hello. It was a bit rude. I should show her around our house."
Bai Xian'er naturally knew that he was making excuses.
That Princess Xue'er came here last night, and she and Shen Mingfu had already visited the entire garden early this morning.
