With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

"Since there is an eldest princess here, I'm afraid I can't push this post." Yan said in a deep voice.

After all, they are relatives of the emperor, and the Shen family needs to keep a low profile recently, lest people gossip.

Shen Qianwei nodded.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have informed me about this when I came here today, and the post was only sent in the morning.

Since he was going to a banquet, he had to go back and make some preparations, so the plan to stay in Zhuangzi for a few more days was a waste of time.

On the same day, the whole family went back to the mansion together.

Yan called Su Junning over to prepare a birthday gift for the county princess's wife.

Shen Qianwei groaned and refused to let go of the lady, and followed her in a daze.

In the end, he couldn't understand what the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were discussing, so he finally found a business book in Yan's room, covered his face and went to take a nap.

A few days later, the Yan family and Su Junning boarded the carriage to the Changping county mansion.

"Ning'er, look again, my posture of drinking tea and saluting, right?"

"And my clothes today, shouldn't it be rude?"

"You will enter the mansion later, you must remind me, don't say the wrong thing."

Along the way, Yan babbled non-stop, appearing a little nervous.

Su Junning laughed, took her hand, and comforted her softly.

"Mother, don't worry, you have practiced very well these few days, and you have also attended a banquet in the palace. This is just going to the county mansion. How can the rules be stricter than in the palace?"

When she said that, Yan smiled worriedly.

"To tell you the truth, in the past, I went to the palace to go to banquets, not many times, and I only sat at the banquets. What a mistake to say."

Was worried about this.

Su Junning pursed her lips and patted the back of her hand.

"Don't worry, I will be a little follower in a while, and I will follow you."

When she said that, Yan Shi was amused, and the atmosphere eased a lot.

Not long after, the carriage stopped at the gate of Changping County Mansion.

Handing the post to the guide servant who guards the gate, he was quickly led into the inner courtyard.

After entering, he saw that there were already many people in the flower hall, among them was a lady in a purple dress, walking among the crowd, entertaining and entertaining, obviously it was Xiao Shi.

Just when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were about to go to say hello, the maid next to the woman saw them first and whispered something in the woman's ear.

Then, the woman immediately turned around and came towards them with a warm smile on her face.

"Oh, sorry for the inconvenience. This is Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Young. When you come back, you two must be cautious. Our family is the least formal, just do as you please!"

"The younger generation has met Mrs. Madam." Su Junning bowed and saluted.

Mrs. Xiao hurriedly helped her up, "Excuse me, please don't be so polite, the young lady is about the same age as my eldest daughter, and I think we can chat better together, she will come later , I asked her to come and meet you."

Su Junning smiled and nodded.

Then he and Yan Shi gave the congratulatory gift to Xiao Shi, and then went to drink tea and enjoy the flowers.

Usually this kind of banquet can be lazy, but now she and Yan Shi are the favorites on the hot stove, and most of them are people who want to curry favor, so when Xiao Shi left this time, other people rushed up.

Of course, there are also people who have different opinions and want to see the jokes of Yan, the general's wife who was born as a businessman. However, these days, Yan has practiced the etiquette of the aristocratic family, and Su Junning is there to help. It's decent and thoughtful.

For a while, the contempt in many people's hearts was reduced a little.

It's just that they were talking here, and a figure slowly entered, which attracted Su Junning's eyes.

It was none other than Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Rui Guo.

Now the matter of the salt tax case is only being handled in secret, and in the face of it, the Duke of Shangguo is still a relative of the emperor, so the Xie family is naturally invited to this kind of banquet.

Same as last time, Mrs. Xie looked a little haggard, but she didn't lose her airs and demeanor, she was still holding it up.

After entering, Mrs. Xie saw Yan's and Su Junning surrounded by everyone, and her eyes darkened.

Now when she saw Su Junning, she couldn't help but think of her daughter.

Xu Sini had already given birth to a boy in Zhuangzi outside, the last time Su Junning met Mrs. Xie on the street, she went to visit Xu Sini.

But now the Shen family and the Su family are not something she can easily provoke, so no matter what is in her heart, she has to hold back.

Out of sight is pure, Xie simply avoided the people in the hall and went to the garden next to him.

Today we are talking about viewing flowers and watching a play, so naturally the banquet will be held in the garden of the mansion. The stage outside has already been set up for this moment, and the servants are coming and going, making the final preparations.

After the banquet begins, we will listen to the opera while eating and drinking.

There were few people here, Xie escaped from the crowd, and took a breath by the koi pond not far from the stage.

And she didn't stay here for long, two ladies who were going back to the flower hall after changing clothes passed by here, and they came up to chat with her when they saw her.

"Isn't this Mrs. Xu? Why do you stay here alone and don't go to the front to drink tea? I heard that the refreshments prepared by the Duke's Madam today are handcrafted in the palace."

The first lady who spoke was a little fat, round and round.

Another taller lady followed suit.

"Seeing Mrs. Xu's complexion is not very good, I think she came out to be quiet and quiet. After all, there was no time to hide like this in the past, but now I have a chance."

When she said this, there was a faint smile on the woman's lips, which seemed to be sarcasm.

Xie's nerves are already sensitive now, after the two of them said such words, his face immediately became sullen.

"What do I want to do, when will it be your turn to talk, since I want to curry favor with the upstarts, why don't you pull up your pants and hurry over, otherwise you won't even be able to see the corners of his clothes later, I'm afraid I'll go back and talk to you." The family can’t explain it.”

These two women, Mrs. Xie, have a bit of a shadow. Neither of them have high official positions in their families. They also looked like this when they flattered her, but because they are not popular, Mrs. Xie didn't pay much attention to them. Now she wants to step on her again Come to curry favor with others.

I don't think about it!

"You!" The fat lady stared, and was about to say something, but she was pulled back by the person next to her, and she suppressed her anger again, and snorted coldly, "You still think you are a high-ranking person, why are you putting on airs?"

Leaving those words behind, he shook his hand and left.

Anyone in Beijing who has some connections, even if they don't know the whole story about Prince Chen, can still guess a little bit, but because Emperor Jianning issued a disguised password, no one dared to say it in the open.

But the impending decline of the Xu family was a tacit matter for everyone, so naturally they were no longer polite.

Looking at the backs of the two, Xie's heart was burning with unbearable anger, and he only regained his complexion after pinching a few red marks on his palm.

At this moment, she suddenly understood her daughter's state of mind, and also tasted Xu Sini's hatred for Su Junning back then.

But Xie's disgust and hatred are not only for Su Junning, but also for the Shen family, especially Shen Qianwei.

This Shen Qianwei killed her daughter, and broke the path of the Seventh Prince and even the King Chen one after another. Not only that, he stepped on the bones of Xu's lineage, and instead became the assistant minister chosen by Emperor Jianning for his grandson.

Obviously, the blood of the Xu family is also flowing on the grandson's body, how can he, Shen Qianwei!
Thinking of this, the dark light in Xie's eyes flickered, anyway, she probably didn't have many days to plan, so she had to fight to the death, and the Shen family couldn't be so proud!
