Chapter 223: Mu Yu Appears, Shen Tang Celebrates His Birthday
Chapter 223: Mu Yu appears, Shen Tang wishes birthday
Ordinary guests are greeted by servants and servants, but when the Sheng family and the founding government arrive, it is Shao Xun, Youfu and Youcai who come to invite them in person!
Within the Shao Mansion, there is the Yishi Garden! There are many guests coming, so naturally they cannot be in the hall. Therefore, the Yishi Garden is the place to accommodate all the guests! In the Yishi Garden, there are strange rocks all over, shaded by green bamboos. Although there are no flowers to set it off, it is still full of interest.
A servant served tea and refreshments. Above the chief, Shao Xun accompanied Zhu Shilu, Sheng Xinghua and other distinguished guests, while the rest of the guests were also attended by Fu Fu and Fu Fu.
There were more than ten banquet tables and hundreds of guests! The worst among them was a local gentry and wealthy person. As the saying goes, there is no one who comes and goes. Although Shao Xun's banquet did not dare to be compared with the top figures in the court, it should not be underestimated.
Officials have the rank of officials, merchants have the wealth of merchants, and everyone talks together, so lively!
"Uncle Shao, I heard that sister Mu Yu is also at home. Could you please come out and see me? Since sister Mu Yu visited Poyang the year before last, I haven't seen my nephew for two years. My father often mentioned that although we are men, we are not as good as I'm going to the Shao family's pearl. I'll meet my sister today so I can learn some business tips." During the conversation, Sheng Xinghua suddenly spoke.
The Sheng family and the Shao family are in opposition and are intertwined with each other. It is not easy for either family to suppress the other. Not to mention what happened to the two young masters of the Shao family back then, Sheng Xinghua is somewhat stronger than the two brothers, but his strength is limited. .If the Sheng family can welcome Shao Muyu, not only will they have a virtuous wife, but also the Shao family will lose a big helper. Although, the Sheng family naturally knows that it is not necessary to marry the Shao family. It's easy, but naturally you won't give up easily. Therefore, this time not only did Sheng Xinghua come, but he also brought generous gifts.
"This..." Shao Xun hesitated a little. How could he not know what his old rival thought?
"Sir, my nephew also wants to meet Miss Mu Yu!" Just as Shao Xun hesitated, Zhu Shilu also spoke.
The Sheng family's face could be refuted, but the Founding Duke's face had to be given. Therefore, although Shao Xun was a little reluctant, he could only nod his head and call the steward on the side to summon Shao Muyu.
In the backyard, Shao Muyu was accompanying his mother and chatting with the two young ladies! The two concubines had no children, so the inner house of the Shao family was extremely harmonious. Even the two young ladies were not interested in Shao Muyu and the two brothers. Also very close.
"Girl Mu Yu, I heard from my sister that you already have a sweetheart, why don't you bring him back to show me!" one of them said.
Murong Hui on the side sighed slightly when she heard this. Shao Xun had also told her about Shao Muyu, and she was naturally opposed to it. How beautiful and talented her daughter was, she actually wanted to be someone else's concubine. Will you not be wronged in the future? Just like my own family, I am kind to my two concubines, and I love Shao Xun, but the concubines are different from the main wife after all. However, recently, I have also wanted to I gave some words of advice, but my daughter just listened with a smile and didn't respond at all.
Although it was the matchmaker's words ordered by her parents, her daughter has always been a person with ideas. Don't talk about yourself, how can you change your daughter's mind even if you are the master?
"Madam, the master asked the young lady to come over..."
At this moment, the old housekeeper hurried over and said to Murong Hui.
"The young master of the Sheng family and the young master of the founding father's house are here and want to meet the young lady!" Murong Hui's eyes flashed and she said: "That's fine, girl, you don't need to accompany me here. The Sheng family and the The Founding Duke’s office is all our honored guests, you and them are old acquaintances, it’s time to go and meet them!”
Shao Muyu did not refute. Of course, the most important reason was that, counting the time, it seemed that his lover should arrive.
When Shao Muyu appeared in Yishi Garden, the eyes of all the young talents present were brightened! Women want to please their appearance, and Mr. Shen will be arriving soon, so Shao Muyu naturally dressed up well.
"I've met Miss Muyu!"
"Miss Muyu..."
"Xinghua has met Miss Muyu..."
"Zhu Shilu has met Miss Mu Yu!"
Even Sheng Xinghua and Zhu Shilu were not immune. They stood up with their eyes fixed!
After looking around the field, he did not see Shen Tang. Therefore, Shao Muyu just gave everyone a slight blessing. He did not deliberately get close to anyone or alienate anyone, and then stood obediently beside Shao Xun.
Although everyone was a little disappointed when they saw this, they were not discouraged. After all, Shao Muyu didn't get close to anyone else, right?
However, at this moment, another song of singing suddenly came!
"My son-in-law, Shen Tang, congratulates my father-in-law on his birthday. I specially give him a glass mirror. I wish my father-in-law to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains!"
This voice came suddenly, as if by magic. Shao Xun's vision went dark and he almost fell down. Everyone else was stunned, and the lively scene became audible...
Everyone knows that Shao Xun only has one daughter, Shao Muyu, and this man actually calls himself his son-in-law. Doesn’t that mean that the pearl of the Shao family that they covet has been seized by someone else? However, such a big thing has never been heard of Got the news?
For a moment, under the gaze of everyone, a straight figure appeared in their sight! Sheng Xinghua and Zhu Shilu looked at each other, but saw that the other person shook his head in an incomprehensible manner! So, this person is not a high-ranking official. The descendants are not from a wealthy family. Could it be said that this is an excuse for Mr. Shao? After all, Shao Xun does not want to marry into the two families. This is a matter known to everyone, but making a fake one will not hinder Is Shao Muyu famous?
"You evildoer, who is your father-in-law!" Shao Xun said through gritted teeth.
"Mr. Shen, come on! Look, when daddy saw you coming, he was so happy that he almost fainted..." Shao Muyu said at the same time. However, when Shao Xun heard this, his eyesight went dark again! Are he happy? Himself Happy hammer, you are obviously going to faint from anger, okay?
Regardless of what others thought, Shao Muyu took the initiative to step forward, took Shen Tang's arm affectionately, and came to Shao Xun.
"My son-in-law is late, I hope my father-in-law will forgive me! My son-in-law wishes my father-in-law a long life!" As he said that, without waiting for Shao Xun to react, he kowtowed to the ground and kowtowed.
Sheng Xinghua and Zhu Shilu looked at each other again. It seemed that this person had an affair with Shao Muyu, but Shao Xun disagreed? Also, this person obviously had no reputation, and he was not a close match with the Shao family. How could Shao Xun agree to his daughter getting married? In that case...
"You...get up first!" Shao Xun's face was dark, and he didn't know how to respond for a while!
