A lucky koi fish was found while escaping from famine, and the whole family became prosperous

Chapter 142 Entering and Leaving the Princess's Mansion
When the second and third branches of the Shen family saw Shen Yixu's miserable appearance, they all lowered their heads and looked at the empty bowls in front of them. Their slightly shaking shoulders betrayed their feelings at the moment.

Shen Yixu came in with gritted teeth.

His gaze fell on the unkind second and third wives, his eyes deepened, and he took note of the two of them in his heart.

After Shen Yixu took his seat, the lady from the Shen family, who had been silent all this time, slowly spoke.

"Lao San, what's wrong with you?"

Madam Shen frowned slightly, with a hint of disgust in her eyes, as if she didn't expect the third brother to be so useless.

When Shen Yixu saw the disgust in his mother's eyes, his breathing stagnated and he almost cried, but he finally held back the sadness.

"Mom, it was dark and the road was slippery. I just fell accidentally. It's okay!"

Although Shen Yixu looked calm and composed, he was actually crying like a river in his heart.

Mrs. Shen nodded when she heard this. Sitting next to her was the old lady of the Shen family.

With a wave of the old lady's hand, the Shen family's dinner began.

The entire dining table was extremely silent. There was not even the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding, let alone the sound of eating.

Jiang Yunjin ate in small bites, her round eyes rolling around. After seeing that everyone in the Shen family had good manners, she unconsciously learned from them.

After the meal, Jiang Yunjin’s favorite was the braised pork made by the Shen family’s chef.

Soft and delicious, served with rice and a little soup.

It’s a pity that I was a guest at someone else’s house.

She didn't dare eat more and only ate half a bowl of rice.

Even so, she is the girl who eats the most in the Shen family.

The other one, who is the youngest, is said to be the daughter of the third branch of the Shen family.

I only eat a small spoonful of rice and no more than ten vegetables in one meal.

He is so skinny that his cheekbones are almost showing, but he keeps saying that he is getting fatter.

This was only the case at the Shen family. If she were outside, she would have to reply to her, saying that she had indeed gained weight.

After dinner, the people from the second and third rooms left the front hall.

At this moment, only the Shen family's main room was left in the front hall.

When the maids closed the door again, everything became different.

"Huh! I'm finally suffocating! Shen Yilin, did you show mercy when you beat the third brother? I told you not to show mercy! This kid hasn't gotten married yet, so he should be lying in bed to recover from his injuries! He can't find a wife anyway, so why don't you just cripple his legs? We in the Shen family will take care of him!"

Mrs. Shen, who had been dignified and indifferent just now, now looked completely different.

To Jiang Yunjin's shock, she witnessed the change in the noble lady's expression.

The speed of the change was unexpected.

Just when she was thinking about whether to avoid it, she felt a burning gaze falling on her.

Before she could react, a sweet fragrance came over her, and then the person was held in his arms, and a sound of joy bloomed in her ears.

"Oh, whose little girl is this? She's so pretty!"

Madam Shen held the little girl in her arms and looked her up and down. The more she looked, the more beautiful she became, and she simply didn't want to let go.

After being intimate for a while, Dr. Shen finally remembered to ask whose family this girl was.

Shen Yixu immediately began to explain.

He knew that the little girl had gone to the Princess's residence today, and that she would be busy until very late when she came back now, so his elder brother brought her back for dinner.

Unexpectedly, when Mrs. Shen heard the third son's voice, she rolled her eyes at him, which was completely unpresentable.

"Just shut up! A man without a wife has no right to speak!"

Madam Shen snorted lightly, not caring at all how hurtful her words were. It wasn't her who was hurt anyway!
Shen Yixu seemed to have long been accustomed to Madam Shen's words. He just smiled and ignored them.

On the contrary, Jiang Yunjin, who was nestled in Madam Shen's arms, looked up and caught the flash of disappointment in Shen Yixu's eyes. Hmm?
Could it be that there is a reason why the other party is not getting married?
Jiang Yunjin was very curious, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask about this.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lord Shen thought about sending the little girl home, but was rejected by Madam Shen.

The task of sending the little girl fell on Shen Yixu.

Madam Shen said that he was the one with the most free time in the family, so if he didn't go, who would?

In this way, the task of sending someone off fell on Shen Yixu.

For Shen Yixu, he was eager to take on this job.

Just before the two of them left the Shen family, they saw Madam Shen pushing Lord Shen and his wife into the backyard and telling them to go to bed early.

If the secret joy in Madam Shen's eyes had not betrayed her thoughts, Jiang Yunjin would never have thought that Madam Shen would be such a lady.

On the contrary, Duke Shen, who had been sitting quietly on the side, had a serious face at first, but after the people from the second and third rooms left, he looked at Madam Shen with tenderness on his face.

The couple is very loving.

As for why the first wife was acting in front of the second and third wives, Jiang Yunjin didn't know.

On the way back, Shen Yixu took the girl aside and talked incessantly about what he had seen and heard during the day. The girl listened with great interest and then changed the subject to ask about the eldest princess.

"Xiao Yunjin, how do you feel about going to the Princess's Mansion today?"

"Very beautiful!"

What emerged in Jiang Yunjin's mind was the magnificent building of the Princess's Mansion. It was the first time she had seen such a large house!
Even the Shen family we just visited was only half the size of the princess's mansion.

But Jiang Yunjin didn't dare say this.

Shen Yixu heard the little girl's honest answer and nodded: "The princess's mansion is indeed big. It took about three years to build it!"

It took three years to build such a house!
With a sigh, the carriage stopped in front of the back door of Jiang's shop.

Shen Yixu only told the coachman to return home after seeing the little girl enter the house.

As soon as Jiang Yunjin entered the house, he saw Sun Erzhu, who had been waiting nearby, walking towards him with a happy look on his face.

"The eldest girl is back! The master and the mistress are very worried about her! Has the girl eaten yet?"

Sun Erzhu walked forward, looked the little girl over, and then asked this question carefully.

"Don't be busy, go and rest early!"

Jiang Yunjin still couldn't adapt to this change of identity. He waved his hand awkwardly. Only after seeing the person return to the room did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking up at the house in front of me, I saw that the candlelight in a room on the second floor was particularly bright. It was the room where Old Mrs. Jiang was.

Jiang Yunjin ran towards the old lady's room.

At this moment, everyone in the Jiang family is in the old lady's room.

The few of them first counted the money they had earned in the past few days and then recorded it in the account book.

Just when the family finished counting the money, Jiang Yunjin suddenly pushed the door open.

The Jiang family was stunned for a moment. After they came to their senses, they all looked at the little girl who pushed the door open with joy.

"Hey! Our little Yunjin is back!"

Mrs. Jiang screamed and quickly pulled the man standing next to her back. She ran forward and took the sweet and soft girl into her arms.

When Jiang Ersao carried the person back to his seat, all the members of the Jiang family gathered around.

"Xiao Yunjin, did you really go to the princess's mansion today?"

"Isn't the princess's mansion very grand?"

"Our little Yunjin is really amazing. She can enter and leave the princess's mansion at such a young age!"
