After the instructions were given, she asked them to do things as usual, while she spoke to Zhang Huai alone for a few words.
Zhang Huai didn't expect that she would trust him so much, five thousand taels of silver!
If she ran away with it, there was no way she could get it back. Five thousand taels of silver notes were enough to eat and drink for a lifetime.
Looking at Shen Mingzhu's calm and beautiful face, he couldn't help but ask: "Miss, aren't you afraid that I will run away with the banknote?"
Shen Mingzhu chuckled, "Zhang Huyuan's kindness to our brothers and sisters, let alone five thousand taels, as long as I have fifty thousand taels, it is all casual. Even if you take it and run away, I won't be sad, but I feel
You are not that kind of person."
Zhang Huai couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you for your trust, Miss. Zhang Huai will do it now."
As soon as Zhang Huai left, a mother-in-law came to deliver a message to Shen Mingzhu.
The gift was naturally about Shen Mingtang being summoned by Xiao Che earlier.
The mother-in-law had limited knowledge and could only tell Shen Mingzhu what she heard and then make her own judgment.
Fortunately, Shen Mingzhu knows Xiao Che very well. Although he is still young and may have some uncertain personalities, he is pretty much the same.
Shen Mingzhu came to the conclusion that Xiao Che did not come here on his own, but rather came to see the young master after hearing someone's words. Moreover, he also came to see the eldest young master out of concern for the prime minister. As for her talented person,
He didn't seem to care at all about the person he was engaged to be engaged to.
Shen Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, it would be better this way. Then she would not have any worries about breaking off the engagement, lest he would block her.
I wonder if Xiao Xian asked him to come.
Let's talk about Shen Mingtang being summoned by Xiao Che at Zhongxin Hall. The two chatted for a while, and Xiao Che found that although Shen Mingtang didn't read too many books, he still had some insights, and his mind was clear and quick. If he could polish it, he would definitely be a talent.
Xiao Che then had the idea of recruiting his subordinates. He naturally knew that Shen Can's first wife died in childbirth, his daughter was some kind of Dragon Boat Festival poisonous girl who was thrown into the countryside, and his son was angry and later fled to the countryside to be with his sister.
Among the secrets of wealthy families, only those things that are done behind closed doors are secrets. This kind of things that are done under the sun are just not mentioned by others. It is naturally very easy to know.
However, out of respect for the prime minister and the rules for interacting with each other, everyone tried not to mention it as much as possible.
After all, who doesn’t have something to do?
He had heard about the betrothal when he was a child, but no one mentioned it again soon. The queen mother never mentioned it, and the servants never mentioned it.
Therefore, he just said that because he was well-informed, and he was not interested in hearing the real inside story.
It was just that he had heard people say that Pei Ruolan was so beautiful that she could compare with Princess Yan and the Queen Mother, and could almost be compared with the alluring Princess Lauder. Sometimes he still yearned for her.
Now I met Shen Mingtang, and he was indeed a handsome man who was even more beautiful than a girl. His sister must also be a stunning figure.
However, this kind of thought is extinguished immediately. After all, not everyone can afford to lose weight like that kind of poisonous woman.
He showed symbolic concern for Shen Mingtang, sent some books, and also rewarded him with a fine inkstone.
"Mingtang is already quite young. Do you know when you will return to Beijing?"
Xiao Che's gentleness and kindness made Shen Mingtang less nervous. At first glance, he felt that Xiao Che should be a deep-seated person. Although he was only sixteen years old, his eyes were extremely sharp.
