The emperor's uncle is the only favorite: the mysterious doctor's crazy concubine is going

Chapter 155: Make peace with what you have come
  Shen Zhuoxi seemed startled by the screams of their mother and son. She covered her heart and said, "I'm going to be fifteen soon. Is it weird to get engaged?"
  "No, no." Mrs. Jiang glanced at Jiang Chao and said with a sneer: "It's not strange to get engaged, it's just unexpected. Didn't the second lady just recover?"
  "And isn't it that the second lady hasn't got a hairpin yet?" Jiang Chao was dubious and said, "Why should we wait until she gets a hairpin to discuss the engagement?"
  "The second young lady has just recovered and has not yet gotten her haircut." Upon seeing this, Aunt Ju explained, "However, the marriage was given by the Holy Father and will be completed after she gets her haircut."
  "Marriage granted by the Holy Spirit?" Mrs. Jiang's face changed slightly and she looked at Jiang Chao, wanting him to say something.
  Jiang Chao couldn't tell a thing. After all, it was the will of the Holy One. If he didn't pay attention, it would be a humiliating crime. He could only smile dryly and said: "That's great, congratulations."
  Mrs. Jiang could only laugh dryly and echoed: "I didn't expect that the second young lady would have such luck."
  "After so many years of suffering, we should have good luck." Shen Zhuoxi looked at the messy plates on the table and asked, "Are you full?"
  "I'm full." Jiang Chao wanted to rush back to discuss things, so he waved his hand and said, "We are a little tired from the long journey, so we should go back and rest first."
  "Okay." Shen Zhuoxi stood up and said, "You don't have any maids around. I'll ask the housekeeper to pick a few and send them to you."
  "No need." Huang said hypocritically: "It's already very embarrassing to come to the Grand Master's Mansion and live there for nothing. How can I use the people from the Grand Master's Mansion?"
  "The Grand Master's Mansion is very big. It's easy to find a place without anyone following you." After Shen Zhuoxi finished speaking, he looked at Yu Qinglian and said, "What do you think, Madam?"
  "Do as you say." Yu Qinglian said thoughtfully, "If you have anything to do, just tell the second lady, the second lady is not short of money."
  After leaving the dining room, Shen Zhuoxi went to Jing'an Garden.
  The old lady was so angry that she didn't even eat lunch. She was half-lying on the couch and dozing off. There was a cup of herbal tea sitting next to her, and Grandma Yuan was beating her legs.
  "Grandma." Shen Zhuoxi saluted and said, "You haven't even eaten lunch. It's unbearable."
  The old lady opened her eyes, her expression was not good: "That family is rude and terrible, as if they haven't eaten in eight lifetimes. I feel sick even when I sit at the dinner table. How can I eat?"
  "I haven't seen them now. I have to eat something. I ordered someone to go to the back kitchen to bring sweet-scented osmanthus and minced meat porridge." Shen Zhuoxi sat on the edge of the sofa, and his voice was a little lower: "It's my fault. They shouldn’t be left behind.”
  The old lady sat up. From her angle, she could only see Shen Zhuoxi's thin profile, but could not see her expression clearly.
  She was also innocent. Thinking of this, the old lady softened her heart: "Your mother's relatives are withering away, and there are not many people you have contact with. I know that you are reluctant to part with the few that are left. You want to maintain the relationship, so I don't blame you."
  "No." Shen Zhuoxi raised his head, looked at the old lady with clear eyes, and whispered: "I haven't remembered anything since I was five years old. I don't have any contact with any of these relatives, so I can't say I can't bear to leave."
  "Today they were at the gate of the Grand Master's Mansion, talking nonsense. There were already many people watching the excitement around. In order to avoid affecting the reputation of the Grand Master's Mansion, I let them in."
  Being so sensible, the old lady loved her even more: "It's a good thing that you consider the overall situation, but the Jiang Chao family is very powerful, and besides money, they only care about profits."
  "I'm worried that you will be taken advantage of by them. Let them stay for a few days and then leave."
  Shen Zhuoxi raised his eyes slightly and said uneasily: "I didn't know who they were before, and I had promised them to live together until I got married. Wouldn't it be bad if I regretted it?"
  "That's all, let's settle down now that we've come." The old lady sighed and said, "We'll discuss it later when your father comes back."
  Shen Zhuoxi stayed in Jing'an Garden and waited on the old lady until she finished her porridge before leaving.
  After she left, Aunt Yuan sighed: "There are many young ladies in the house, and the second young lady is the only one who misses you and doesn't eat, so she can be considered filial. It's just the Jiang family..."
  The old lady shook her head helplessly and said: "What can we do? No matter how rogue they are, they are all connected by blood to Princess Xiaoqing. I hope they can stay for a few days and then leave."
  "It's easy to ask God, but hard to send God away." Aunt Yuan sighed: "I'm afraid they came because they were planning to make plans from the second lady."
  "I won't let them succeed." The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "Even if I am accurate, the person in the palace will not allow it. It depends on whether this family has the consciousness."
  Jiang Chao and the others had a hearty meal and returned to the East Guest House with satisfaction.
  Mrs. Jiang slumped down happily, touched her belly and said, "I haven't had such a delicious meal for many years since Jiang Lie's death. I really miss it!"
  "Now is not the time to miss me." Jiang Chao said with a serious face, "I was busy on my way, but I forgot to ask, that girl actually has an engagement!"
  "What's wrong with the engagement?" Mrs. Jiang burped with satisfaction and snorted coldly: "Are you married?"
  Jiang Chao quickly stood up from the chair and ran to Mrs. Jiang in a few steps: "What do you mean, mother?"
  "As long as it's not carried out in a sedan chair, what's the point of an engagement?" Mrs. Jiang stood up from her bed and said, "Don't you see that Miss Shen is so submissive? It's not what we say."
  "We are her mother's family. Besides, the Grand Master's Mansion has to take care of its face. As long as we get the chance to turn raw rice into cooked rice, she will be willing even if she doesn't want to."
  "What mother said is true." Mrs. Huang answered: "She doesn't have to provide all the clothes we wear, the fine wines and delicacies we eat. It doesn't matter whether she is engaged or not, it is true that the person can get it."
  "Yes." Jiang Chunyan also said: "Didn't you just hear what the eldest lady said, that girl has a lot of money, and I want to buy some jewelry. Those ladies just now were all wearing gold and silver, which made me look shabby."
  "Okay, I'll ask that girl to take you out to buy something tomorrow." Huang paused, looked at the old lady and said, "Mom, you should go buy some bracelets, hairpins, etc. You can't keep it plain."
  The whole family had plans, but Shen Heshan had been forgotten.
  After lunch, Shen Heshan came back from the Prince's Mansion. When he found out that Jiang Chao and his family were here, he frowned so much that he could kill a fly: "Are they here to ask for money again?"
  "Not this time." Yu Qinglian gave her a sweet soup to relieve the heat, rubbed her shoulders and said, "I heard that the second lady recovered and came here to visit."
  "Hmph." Shen Heshan took a sip of the sweet soup and said disdainfully: "The visit is fake. After all, I still want to make some money. This family is very difficult, so we should find an opportunity to drive them out."
  Yu Qinglian massaged him a little slower, and then said: "I'm afraid it won't be good to drive him out. They made a fuss at the door of the house before entering. If they drive him away again, they might say something to us."
  "It doesn't matter anything else, your reputation is important!"
  Shen Heshan had a headache: "Then what do you think we should do?"
  "I also tried my hand at it. They wanted to see the second lady get married before leaving." Yu Qinglian said hypocritically: "The guest rooms in the mansion are all empty. As long as they don't cause trouble, they can stay here."
  "The second young lady has been married for less than two months, and our Taishi Mansion doesn't lack that much money. If they cause trouble, if they drive them away, others will have nothing to say."
  Shen Heshan was too lazy to care about this, and just said: "Look at the arrangement, I don't want to see that family anyway, eat, drink, and have sex separately!"
  "Yes." Yu Qinglian got the affirmative answer, and the viciousness in her eyes flashed away.
