The marriage needs to be considered in the long run, and we can wait until Yuan Rui has finished handling Liang Guogong's affairs.
Su Qiuyue didn't know which tendon was wrong, so she insisted on Wen Yao accompanying her to burn incense, but Wen Yao didn't even bring her with her, so Wen Yao had no choice but to accompany her.
She did have a banquet, belonging to the Shen family. Mrs. Shen personally posted the message to celebrate the election of the imperial merchant. Both the Li family and the Xia family must have gone back. It was equivalent to an exchange in the business world. If you don't go, you won't be able to
suitable.
So they divided into two carriages, accompanied her after offering incense, and immediately rushed to Shen's house.
The Fahua Temple in the city is full of incense, and people come to offer incense on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. Today is neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, so there are not so many pilgrims, so it is quite leisurely.
Su Qiuyue hastily burned incense and took him to the backyard of the temple. Some pilgrims would rest here for a while, and there were also some pavilions for everyone to rest.
There was a group of people sitting in a pavilion. Su Qiuyue walked directly towards them and said with a smile: "I'm late, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."
"Wen Yao, come here, I've met Mrs. Wu."
Wen Yao was a little strange and saluted: "Hello, Mrs. Wu."
There was a man next to Mrs. Wu, in his twenties, dressed in a green shirt, and looking polite. He secretly glanced at Wen Yao. Wen Yao looked at him, then immediately lowered his head, pretending to be nonchalant.
"She looks pretty good, but she doesn't look small and is not festive. My son is so aggrieved at such an old age."
Wen Yao suddenly widened her eyes and realized that Su Qiuyue actually brought her on a blind date!
Su Qiuyue accompanied her with a smile: "If I weren't older, I wouldn't be so worried, but my daughter is very capable. She is a good helper at home and abroad, and she is guaranteed to be virtuous."
Mrs. Wu nodded reluctantly. If she hadn't heard that her girl was capable and could make money, she would not have seen her even after breaking off the engagement at such an old age.
Wen Yao smiled angrily and asked: "May I ask Mrs. Wu what your family does? Forgive me, I have never seen you!"
Su Qiuyue said: "Mrs. Wu's family is the minister of Taipu Temple, and she is an official of the sixth rank."
Wen Yao's eyes were wide and round, like a frightened cat. Young Master Wu couldn't stop thinking, she was so beautiful!
"Taipu Temple? Isn't that the yamen in charge of livestock? The one that raises horses!"
Mrs. Wu said unhappily: "How can you manage all the beasts in the world the same way? You girl, you really don't like what you say, how can you run a business?"
Wen Yao smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I'm ignorant. I have a banquet. Miss Yuan from Prince Jing's family invited me to go to the lake. It's rude to be late, so I'll leave first."
"Hey, they say Miss Yuan and you are friends. The rumors are true. How did you meet Miss Yuan? Can you recommend my daughter to go with you?"
Mrs. Wu held her hand and forgot the purpose of today.
Wen Yao took out her hand and said: "Private date is inconvenient and we are not familiar with it. You can talk to my mother and say goodbye."
After leaving without looking back, Mrs. Wu looked ugly: "Mrs. Wen, your daughter is so arrogant, no wonder she can't get married!"
"Hey, I can't help it. I'm so worried. My son has no choice but to support his mother. Mrs. Wu, do you think my daughter is satisfied with her?"
If Wen Yao were present, he would want to shake the water out of her mind, as if she were goods and eager to sell her.
Mrs. Wu said: "Let's discuss it after we get home."
As if she didn't like her very much, Su Qiuyue looked embarrassed, cursing Wen Yao in her heart for finding such a good family for her, but she didn't know what to do if she really couldn't get married!
Go home and teach her a lesson. She really can't marry a manager or remarry someone else. She just needs to get married and not be an eyesore to the family.
Wen Yao had a dark face and said nothing along the way. Zhiqin looked at her worriedly, "Miss, your marriage still needs to be finalized. If the eldest lady nods, there is nothing we can do!"
"Humph, she still wants to take advantage of me. It's been a good few days and she has been left idle.
Isn't my father making a fuss about letting that outer room in? Find someone to tell him and let him come back."
Since I'm free, I'll find some fun for you.
Just because Wen Yao is soft-hearted towards her family does not mean that she has a good temper.
Zhiqin smiled and said: "Miss, you are smart, but it is not a long-term solution. Why haven't you seen Prince Yuan recently?"
Didn't Prince Yuan promise the young lady to marry her? Only by leaving the Wen family could the eldest lady be truly free.
Wen Yao: "He has big things to do, and I have my own sense of proportion."
When they arrived at the Shen family manor, they were able to buy an entire small mountain range in the capital, where land was at a premium, and build it into a ten-mile manor. Only the Shen family had the connections and financial resources.
Wen Yao came here for the first time and was stunned by the beautiful scenery here. It’s really a beautiful scenery in three steps. There are surprises everywhere. There is also a pond with several awning boats picking lotus flowers in it. Wu Nong’s soft tunes,
It felt like I was in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
"What a beauty!"
Zhiqin couldn't help but admire that the gray walls looked inconspicuous from the outside, but there was something special inside.
This is the brilliance of Shen Changfeng. He is the only one who hides high profile in low profile.
"Miss Wen, I'm waiting for you. Please come inside quickly."
Shen Changfeng's wife, Mrs. Wang, came to greet her in person. Wen Yao was flattered: "Hello, Mrs. Wang, how can I ask you to come in person? Just send a wife."
"That's not possible. You are an honored guest. I have heard of your name for a long time, but now I finally meet you. What a beautiful and lovely sister!"
Mrs. Wang has a very cheerful personality, bursts of laughter, smart and capable yet gentle, and she is worthy of being Shen Changfeng’s wife.
Wen Yao felt a little uncomfortable when she spoke like this, so she laughed dryly and followed her to the inner house.
The eldest mistress of the Xia family is the He family. She is a shy woman with a scholarly look and a noble family background. The Xia family spent a large sum of money to marry her back.
It was Li Ying who came to the Li family. Seeing that she was holding on to her hand and not letting go, she wanted to say a lot to her.
"You are similar in age and have a good relationship. You chat while I greet other guests. Don't be polite when you get here. Just treat me like you are at home."
"Mrs. Wang, please go and do your work. We can wander around by ourselves."
As soon as Mrs. Wang left, Li Ying said nervously: "Sister Wen, you are finally here. I feel so uncomfortable here."
"What are you feeling uncomfortable about? You're not new to the world. Why are you nervous?"
Li Ying blushed, and Wen Yao's heart sank: "Is something wrong?"
"My family wants me to be the concubine of the Shen family!"
Wen Yao took a sip of tea and almost spit it out. Shen Changfeng? Become a concubine?!
