374. Chapter 374 You have a good plan and I have a wall ladder [09]
In the past, there was an old tradition, so when it came to giving rewards, Shen Mingzhu did it the same way as before, but just changed the pattern to make people feel that there was more content.
In addition to those from Shenjiawan, the other two brothers, the uncle and the third master, also brought their children over to stay in advance.
There are guest rooms in the Shen Mansion, which can accommodate foreign men. As for the female family members, it is easy to arrange them. The girls will be assigned to the ladies' courtyards.
For example, there is the largest Jinxiu Garden, Cuizhu Garden, Qingyi Garden, etc.
There is also a need to be particular about arranging guests. Shen Mingzhu will not randomly assign them like drawing lots.
She first asked the maids and ladies to find out the personalities of the guests in advance, especially the young ladies.
She placed those who were extraordinarily upright or very silent in the courtyard of Shen Yunluo and Shen Mingxuan, and placed those who liked to cause trouble and instigated others in the Green Bamboo Garden, putting them under her nose so that she could watch them.
If anyone dares to cause trouble, women who know how to fight will immediately come forward to stop them, so no one can do anything inappropriate.
She only gave the old lady three or five days to celebrate her birthday, and she didn't want them to create any trouble that would ruin her plan.
Although there were many things, very messy, and complicated, under the arrangements of Shen Mingzhu and Chu, they were orderly, busy but not chaotic, showing a completely different atmosphere from before.
Everyone performed their duties and no mistakes were made.
In the front, the eldest master led the third master, the fourth master, Shen Mingsong and others helped to receive the male servants who came to deliver gifts.
The female family members and maids will go to the backyard to bow to the old lady, and then naturally Shen Mingzhu, the Chu family, the eldest lady, and the third lady will help.
Aunt Zhao assisted and was mainly responsible for receiving some wives and mothers-in-law.
After being busy all day, Shen Mingzhu got a little free time. Shen Mingzhu held Chu's hand and said with a smile: "Tomorrow will be the official day, and it looks like I will have a sleepless night tonight. If the fourth aunt didn't come to give me advice, Mingzhu wouldn't be able to do it." If you know what to do, I'm afraid there will be big trouble."
Mrs. Chu smiled slightly and liked Shen Mingzhu very much. She was humble and polite. She seemed cold but in fact she was sincere and had a pure heart.
She smiled and said: "Don't be too humble, Mingzhu. You are a smart and capable daughter, and the fourth aunt knows it. I am just here to help you so that you don't miss anything. Aren't you the one who still controls the general direction?"
She also really admired Shen Mingzhu and looked at her more and more differently.
She had never seen such a rich young lady who could host the family's old lady's sixtieth birthday at the age of thirteen.
Not to mention a wealthy lady, even an experienced lady is sometimes in a hurry and needs to specially invite people from the etiquette department and elders to help.
What's more, who is Shen Mingzhu?
She had been sent to the countryside since she was a child. Without her parents, who would care about her and teach her?
It would be nice not to turn into a wild girl.
But Shen Mingzhu has not turned into a vulgar and uneducated wild girl, nor has she turned into a weak and timid girl with low self-esteem, nor has she turned into a bitter, profit-seeking, resentful girl.
She is so elegant and calm, so noble and dignified, so beautiful and humble, and exudes something called elegance. She is the best interpretation of what a lady from a famous family is.
After Mrs. Chu had been dealing with her for the past few days, she felt that she was getting more and more angry with him.
The more alliances **Mingzhu has, the more powerful she will be!
