Chapter 153 Wants to be a son-in-law
  Jiang Chao's family lived in Wuzhou in a thatched house in the countryside. They had not set foot in such a luxurious house for a long time.
  As soon as they entered the door, several people looked around.
  Mrs. Jiang repeatedly praised: "This is the Grand Master's Mansion after all. The courtyard just entering is bigger than our entire home, let alone these rare flowers and plants."
  "Needless to say, just look at the two magnificent stone lions at the door." Jiang Chao looked at everything in the yard greedily, thinking about how to live here permanently.
  Huang and her children still didn't speak much, but like Jiang Chao and her son, they had envy and greed in their eyes.
  Shen Zhuoxi observed without leaving any trace, and after leading people into the front hall, he said: "You guys came suddenly, and I was not prepared. So, let's go to the east guest house to rest first, and I will instruct my servants to prepare meals."
  "Okay, okay." Mrs. Jiang said quickly, "But hurry up, people are old and can't stand being hungry."
  "Okay." Shen Zhuoxi pulled out Huizhi next to her and said, "This is my personal maid. I will take care of you first. We will talk after dinner. If you need anything, just tell her."
  After saying that, he said to Huizhi: "Bring a few more people with you so that we can serve them well. Don't neglect them."
  Eizhi understood what she meant and said, "Yes."
  Seeing them happily leaving with Hui Zhi, Grandma Ju couldn't help but said: "Miss, why did you leave them behind? They are clearly a scourge of evil intentions to the whole family!"
  "It's a long way from Wuzhou to Sheng. Guess, how did they know about my recovery?" Shen Zhuoxi snorted coldly: "I'm not a prince or princess. It's impossible for a little movement to be spread thousands of miles away, right? ."
  "And judging from the appearance of this family, it doesn't look like there are other relatives in Shengdu, and it's even less likely that people will keep an eye on my news."
  Aunt Ju immediately reacted: "Someone specially told them the news of your recovery and ordered them to come?"
  "Yes." Shen Zhuoxi's eyes were slightly cold and he said: "The ones who can do this must be Yu Qinglian, mother and son. Since they want to disgust me, why don't we all be disgusted together."
  "But..." Aunt Ju hesitated and said, "They are your relatives. The Grand Master and Old Taijun didn't let him in just because of your face. I'm afraid they wouldn't let the Jiang family stay. "
  "Why are you disgusting me if I don't stay?" Shen Zhuoxi glanced in the direction of Yu Qinglian's yard and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Yu Qinglian will help you stay. Go and tell the kitchen to prepare a rich lunch. "
  On the other side, Jiang Chao and his family followed Hui Zhi to the East Guest House. Even though no one had stayed there for a long time, the guest house was still clean.
  "It's so comfortable." Mrs. Jiang sighed: "I would be willing to die to live in a place like this."
  "Mom, don't say that. You want to live a long life." Jiang Chao looked around with a smile and said, "Look at this bed. If you sleep for a night, your body will not be sore."
  "It's better not to sleep on your clothes first." Mrs. Huang was just born. Although she also wanted to sleep, she looked at the clothes on her body, rolled her eyes and said to Huizhi: "Do you have any clothes?"
  Hui Zhi knew her plan, so she pretended not to know and said, "What does my uncle need clothes for?"
  "Look." Mrs. Huang didn't feel ashamed, she pulled up her sleeves and said to Huizhi: "We traveled from Wuzhou for seven days, slept in the open air, and had no place to change, and we are so dirty."
  "Lunch will be served soon. The old lady, the grand master, and the madam of the Grand Master's Mansion will be on the table. If you see us like this, why don't you look down upon us?"
  Huizhi felt a sense of contempt in his heart, but it was not shown on his face. He glanced at the salute in the corner and said, "You didn't bring any?"
  "Yes, I brought them, but those clothes are not allowed on the table." Huang continued: "It doesn't matter if we are embarrassed. After all, we are the second lady's family, so we can't embarrass the second lady, right?"
  Huizhi paused and said, "I asked people to go out and buy some clothes, but it's too late to make them now."
  "Oh." Huang agreed and said, "Go and prepare some hot water. We all need to take a bath."
  Huizhi bowed, turned around and went out, and saw the bamboo leaves and pillars coming too.
  She glanced into the room and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
  "The young lady asked the two servants to come and help Sister Hui Zhi." Zhuye turned his head and looked in, and said, "How is it?"
  "It's okay for the time being, but according to my observation, they are not good people. They are hiding." Hui Zhi whispered: "Don't come here. Let the housekeeper call people here when the time comes, so you don't have to suffer."
  "My slave, you'd better go. The young lady wants to know the purpose of this family's coming." Zhuye said quickly: "Wherever Sister Eizhi is going, I'll go there."
  "They want clothes." Hui Zhi sighed and said, "It's better that I go out and buy them, and you go get water and wash them. Those clothes are really not suitable for the table."
  It wasn't that Hui Zhi disliked the tatters worn by this family, but that their clothes were all stained, not only dirty, but also full of sour smell.
  I had just entered the house for a short while, and the whole house was filled with a mixed smell of sweat and stink. It was very unpleasant. It was the middle of summer, and I probably didn't take a shower all the way.
  Thinking of this, Huizhi felt a chill. This family was not only greedy and shameless, but also very sloppy!
  After fetching water, washing up, and changing clothes, the family finally felt refreshed.
  Smelling the fragrance around her, Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but said: "It's better to buy clothes from the Grand Master's Mansion, they all have fragrance."
  "Yes." Mrs. Huang pulled up the clothes on her body, turned around in a circle, and said, "I have never worn such good clothes in my life, and Chunyan."
  After saying that, he pulled his daughter in front of him and said, "Chunyan's dress is even more beautiful than the second lady's!"
  The two siblings also liked each other very much. The younger sister was named Jiang Chunyan and the older brother was named Jiang Hongtao.
  Hearing this, Jiang Chunyan smiled happily and continued: "It's a pity that I am not as lucky as the second lady. I have a grand master as my father and a princess as my mother. I can wear the best clothes all the time."
  "It's okay." Mrs. Jiang patted her hand and comforted her: "We agreed not long before we came here that we would find a good family for you through the relatives of Princess Xiaoqing and Second Miss!"
  "And Tao'er, we need to get Shen Zhuoxi as soon as possible. Even if it means becoming a son-in-law, it's better than going back to Wuzhou and suffering!"
  Jiang Hongtao was a little dull, and he smiled when he heard this: "Okay, I like her."
  "It's too early to talk about this." Jiang Chao took a sip of tea, smacked his lips with unfinished thoughts, and said, "The most important thing at the moment is how to stay in the Grand Master's Mansion. The Grand Master has said before that we will not be allowed to continue. Step into the palace gate."
  "Isn't this already a step in?" Mrs. Jiang snorted coldly and said, "Although the second young lady has recovered, I think she is just like her mother. She is a fool and cannot stand being coaxed."
  "Let's put in a good word, sell her off miserably, and stalk her so hard that she has to stay even if she doesn't want to. When Tao'er succeeds in getting her, we can find a good in-law for Chunyan. Are we going to worry about food and drink?"
  What these people said was heard verbatim by Hui Zhi outside.
  Back at Qingfeng Tower, Huizhi said to Shen Zhuoxi: "This family is very ambitious. Not only do they want to stay, they also plan to let the young master marry the young lady and become the son-in-law of the Shen family!"
  "Ah!" Grandma Ju spat out and said, "These words can be said. Don't they know that the young lady has already been engaged to His Highness King Yu and is just waiting to get married?"
