285. Chapter 285 Undeadly Brewing a Poisonous Plan 【04】
Mrs. Liu refused to give up. She sneered and said: "Mother Sun, send someone to the farm and ask Mrs. Chang's daughter to come. Then I will teach Shen Mingzhu a lesson!"
Grandma Sun had no choice but to go and do it.
It was already evening when Shen Mingzhu returned to the house.
The spring sunset is also exceptionally gentle and beautiful. The intertwined light is like pieces of transparent golden gauze, dreamlike.
After getting out of the car, Biyun took a look and breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe meeting the young lady was a turning point in her life.
She turned around and helped Shen Mingzhu out of the car.
When the people in Cuizhuyuan saw the young lady coming back, they all came out to greet her and serve her.
Shen Mingzhu washed and changed clothes first, then took a short break and had some snacks, while Liu Bo and others reported on the affairs in the house.
She listened to a report about Mrs. Liu's affairs, and then carefully analyzed Mrs. Chang's family, and then gave Biyun and Cuiyan a few words to make arrangements.
In addition to Mrs. Chang's incident, there is another piece of inconspicuous news, that is, Grandma Fang has been acting weird recently. She is not in the house every day, and she doesn't know what she is busy with outside.
Shen Mingzhu immediately concluded that it was not Mrs. Busy's birthday. If that were the case, people like Aunt Fang would definitely show off their respectable matters to the whole world.
This can only mean that she is doing something secret.
Shen Mingzhu had people keeping an eye on her, and if there was anything unusual, she could report it at any time.
It was easy to deliver letters at night. Ding Bai had already followed them back. Generally, women and young men were allowed to go to the inner and outer courtyards. It was not like the rule that young girls did not go to the outer courtyard and older men did not enter the inner courtyard.
There are still some days that are the birthday of the old lady, and everyone in the house pays great attention to it. After all, the old lady will be sixty in the coming year. It is the first and most grand birthday, and the emperor will congratulate her. Even if Shen Can keeps a low profile,
To show off.
This year is the rehearsal for the coming year. Everyone inside and outside the mansion is very busy. There is an endless stream of people coming to the farm to give people and gifts.
There are also relatives and friends who come in advance to send birthday gifts and so on.
Shen Can also happened to be busy, so the eldest son of the concubine, Shen Mingsong, was responsible for receiving the men who came to the house, while Uncle Shen and others helped.
As for the female relatives, they were all arranged by Mrs. Liu. She had always been strong, so she naturally did not need help from others to avoid interference.
In the past few days, several of Shen Mingzhu's businesses have also been completed, including shopkeeper Hezhuang's shop for silks, porcelain, and medicinal materials.
Wen Songzhi also bought several farms, covering a very vast area with thousands of acres of land.
Wen Songzhi was mainly responsible for finding ways to make money. He took advantage of the opportunity given by the court to open up wasteland to raise and train horses, and used his privileges to buy the land at a very low price.
Half of it is fertile farmland, half of it is thin farmland, and some wasteland. There are also mountains, forests, grasslands, etc. The project is very extensive, which is exactly what Shen Mingzhu wanted.
She just went to talk to shopkeeper Wen Songzhi and looked for a chance to take a look. There were many things going on in the house and she couldn't leave for the time being. She had to wait until after the old lady's birthday.
Wen Songzhi made an appointment with Shen Mingzhu to meet at the restaurant as usual, but Xiao Xian didn't come, which was a bit strange.
Shen Mingzhu was a little surprised, "What is Xiao Xian busy with?"
She hasn't seen him since the Hua Chao Festival, and she is busy playing low-key in the house. After all, she is also very eye-catching after the Hua Chao Festival, and it is a good thing to be low-key.
