After the first assistant's wife is reborn

At this moment, all the female family members woke up and came to greet Chen Yuan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law one after another.

No matter how much they dislike and envy Xia Sichan, one indisputable fact is: Husband and wife Rong, Xia Sichan is already the wife of the prime minister, the first-rank wife appointed by the emperor himself!
Her status at this time was beyond their reach, and they could slander and despise her.

"Little lady Yang has met Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Prime Minister." Mrs. Zhu in charge of the Ministry of Rites and her daughter Zhu Peiyao first saluted Chen Yuan, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

The concubine Shen Youjia of Yushi Zhongcheng's family also squeezed over to greet her, her voice was melodious: "My little girl Shen Youjia has met Mrs. Wei, young mistress."

She wanted to make a good impression on Princess Chen Yuan.

In other words, being liked by the old lady is not as effective as being liked by Mrs. Wei.

After all, as a concubine for her son, she has the most say.

There are too many people here, and the smell is still strong.

Chen Yuan waved her hands to the female relatives who came up to see the ceremony: "It's rare for you all to come to my prime minister's mansion. I will send someone to buy small snacks from Xiangyuzhai. Each person has a box. Everyone go out to eat snacks and watch the mansion. The scenery here is just that.”

Xiangyuzhai is a well-known pastry shop in Beijing, the most famous of which is Xiangyuzhai's dim sum. Xiangyuzhai is a well-known pastry shop in Beijing. The shop sells woodcarved boxes of flowers, birds and insects every day. When they first came out of the oven, they queued up, and the price of the box was quite high. In addition to the three layers of delicious pastries, it also came with a beautiful basket. The outer shell of the basket was not only decorated with glass, but also finely carved woodcuts.And there are different flower and bird totems every month, which is quite famous among the rich ladies.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu gasped.

There are a lot of guests at the banquet today, if each person has a box, how many boxes are enough?
Could it be that the pastries of Xiangyuzhai were booked two days in advance?
Otherwise, how can it be enough?

Many of these people are family members of aristocratic families. Hearing the words, how could it be impossible to tell that Mrs. Wei is chasing people away?

Seeing the situation, Mrs. Wei had no intention of taking concubines for her son, so they didn't bother Mrs. Wei here, lest they lose face, which would be bad.

Mrs. Shen took the lead and took the concubine Shen Youjia to say goodbye: "Little lady will not disturb Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Prime Minister. It is getting late, so I will take my leave and go back."

Mrs. Shen also didn't expect the concubine to win the favor of the Wei family and become the prime minister's good concubine.

It was Shen Youjia who listened to her best friend Zhu Linlin's urging, and then forced her aunt to go to her father to beg.

Master Shen also had plans to cling to the Wei family, and that's why Mrs. Shen asked Mrs. Shen to bring the concubine daughter to celebrate her birthday.

To say that Shen Youjia is Zhu Linlin's best friend is to flatter her, she is just a concubine, how could the proud Zhu Linlin be her best friend?

Zhu Linlin and Shen Youjia's sister, Shen Youcun, can barely be considered best friends. Zhu Linlin herself has no chance to marry Wei Ziqian, so she deliberately encourages Shen Youjia, hoping that Shen Youjia can marry Wei Ziqian as a concubine, in order to disgust Xia Sichan.

Besides, several of the wives here have heard that Princess Chen Yuan scolded the daughter of the Zhu family in her Baoqing building, defended her daughter-in-law, and supported her.

At this moment, from the expressions of the Wei family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they already knew that the idea of ​​taking a concubine for the prime minister was the old lady's intention, so they all left.

"Well, okay, Mrs. Shen, go slowly." After Chen Yuan finished speaking, she ordered to the door: "Come here, see off the guests!"

The person who had her outside the door agreed: "Yes, ma'am." Then the nun outside said politely to the female relatives who came out of the door: "Madam, miss, this is the cake specially prepared by the madam, please take it..."

Someone took the lead, and most of the people who knew each other said goodbye to the old lady and Chen Yuan's mother-in-law and left.

However, they also found a strange thing, the old lady of the Wei family celebrated her birthday, why no one came to the residence of Prince Cong?

Not only that, but also the Xia family.

Both the Crown Prince's Mansion and the Second Prince's Highness sent congratulatory gifts, so why did no one come to the door or send congratulatory gifts to the in-laws Prince Cong's Mansion and Xia's House?
The wives who are used to brainstorming point all the reasons to Mrs. Wei.

These wives are masters who have been immersed in the back house and have been edified for many years. They can tell at the first sight. Mrs. Wei is not what the outside world rumors, and she is definitely not a real person in charge of the back house!
Moreover, Princess Chen Yuan didn't take the old lady's birthday seriously at all.Therefore, there is no need for Prince Cong's Mansion and Xia's family to join in the fun.

At this moment, in the main room, only the blind Liu's mother and her two granddaughters still stayed there, as if they were waiting for the old lady to give them an explanation.

Chen Yuan understood, but she didn't point it out.

Since your old lady caused trouble, you can deal with it yourself.

Cao Yanyan was secretly happy, which was exactly what she wanted.

Not only that, but also took a look at Liu Peiyu and sisters who were staying here.

Then, twisting her slender willow waist, she obediently walked up to Chen Yuan, and bowed softly, "Yanyan has seen my cousin."

"Mmm." Chen Yuan treated her as always with serious words, slightly twitching the corners of her lips, and nodded.There was a bit of coldness in the peaceful eyes.

The little girl's family is small, but she has a lot of eyes.

"Zijuan, give the gift to the old lady." Seeing that the people had almost left, Chen Yuan instructed Zijuan behind her.

"Yes, ma'am!" Zijuan held a gold-rimmed jewelry box with a wenge hoop in her hand, and raised her hands to offer it.

Every birthday of the old lady, Chen Yuan always gave her valuable jewelry.

The same is true this year.

Besides, this birthday ceremony may be the last time.

By the time of the old lady's birthday next year, she will already be in her hometown in Ningyuan thousands of miles away
Without the old lady's instructions, Zhang Momo rushed forward to take the jewelry box from Zijuan's hand.

Seeing the gift Zijuan presented, Shi Ju looked at the gift in a mahogany box in her hand, fearing that she might not be able to take it out.

It's already midnight, and the sun has moved through the flower window.

Few of the guests left outside, and some relatives and friends living outside the city couldn't make it back. They continued to listen to the opera, and Chen Yuan had already told Nanny Wang to arrange a yard for them to stay.

Ever since her daughter-in-law Chen Yuan came in with her grandson-in-law, the old lady's face was as cold as ice, and she had been sitting on the Nanmu Grand Master's chair without saying a word.

Xiaolan beat her leg, and Zhang Nanny hurriedly stood behind her and was about to squeeze her shoulders. Zhu Nanny, who had just supervised the maidservant's hospitality, took the lead and poked Zhang Nanny with her wrist. She rolled her eyes.The ninja's butt hurts, so he squeezed the old lady's shoulders himself.

Nanny Zhang could only step aside in despair, and grinned embarrassingly at Zhu Nanny: "Aren't I afraid that you will be tired?"

Needless to say, Nanny Zhu still gave her a roll of the eyes.

Chi, when I don't know what you're thinking?
I thought my butt was hurt, so take this opportunity to present yourself in front of the old lady, and want to replace me, so go ahead and dream!
Behind the old lady, the two nuns played back and forth with each other.

All the women gave well-prepared gifts to the old lady, but they were destined to be disappointed
