Chapter 198
Shen Xu's voice from outside the house made everyone in the house stop chopsticks.

The door curtain was lifted, and Shen Xu, who had just come back from the outside, entered the room with a chill on his body.

Seeing that many people were in the room, he seemed a little surprised, but soon, the joy in his heart replaced that little bit of surprise.

Turning his eyes around the room, he glanced at his twin daughter, and then at Mrs. Cui, "Ma'am, good news!"

His actions just now were seen by Cui Shi, and she couldn't help turning over in her heart, "What makes Husband so happy?"

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Cui asked.

"The empress is going to hold a banquet in the palace, so she asked our family's Yunjin and Yunlan to enter the palace!"

Shen Xu smiled and told the excellent news for him.

Although the daughters-in-law are still young, it is always a good thing that they may be invited into the palace by the empress.

It must be that the official family and the empress have some plans to let his two daughters into the palace. If they are not in order, they will be promised to the crown prince or the second prince, or other princes.

Even if you don't give it to the prince, it's good to give it to other people in the royal family.

It's a pity that the daughters-in-law are still young, even if the officials and the empress have made a plan, it will take a few years before they can bring more benefits to the family.

Shen Xu's words made everyone in the room look uncertain.

Although Cui still had a smile on her face, it could be seen that she was actually not happy, and the smile didn't even reach her eyes.

After observing Cui Shi's reaction, Aunt Qin smiled, but she looked much like Cui Shi.

Lian Er didn't understand these things, she wanted to laugh with Shen Xu, but Aunt Qin secretly pinched her, she immediately pursed her lips and looked at Aunt Qin.

Aunt Qin winked at her, and she followed Aunt Qin's example and smiled again.

Shen Yunlan and Shen Yunjin looked at each other, both sisters were a little bit surprised.

In the previous life, there was no such experience, but now, the empress suddenly called them into the palace.

No matter how you think about it, you can't make people feel at ease.

Shen Yunjie sat beside the two sisters. She had observed the expressions of Mrs. Cui and Aunt Qin for a long time, but now she looked at the two sisters with worry flashing in her eyes.

She is a concubine, and she has always known her identity, and she also knows how to behave.

Seeing the smile on her father's face at this moment, she felt a little cold for no reason.

"Ma'am, do you think this is good news?" Shen Xu was only interested in joy, not noticing the reaction of other people at all, he asked Cui Shi, his voice full of expectation.

"Yes, it's really good news." Cui answered with a smile, but her heart gradually condensed. She turned away from looking at Shen Xu's face, and turned to look at her two daughters.

Stretching out her hand, she caressed her belly, wishing more and more that the belly was a legitimate son.

As such...

Shen Xu's return interrupted the original atmosphere in the house. Aunt Qin reckoned that under such circumstances, the copper pot might not last.

But Shen Xu is here, if she leaves with her daughter and Lian Er, I'm afraid it's inappropriate.

"Master, today is a concubine's situation. I have invited Aunt Qin and the girls. I'm afraid you will have to find another job."

Originally, Shen Xu wanted to ask someone to move a chair to sit down, but Cui Shi opened his mouth, and he responded with a smile without any dissatisfaction.

Shen Xu left the house, the door curtain fell, bringing in a chill.

The hot soup in the room was bubbling, and it looked a little foggy. Cui stared at the curtain for a while, then picked up the chopsticks, and called the others to cook the meat together.

Shen Yunlan and Shen Yunjin picked up the chopsticks. After a while, the two sisters have reached a consensus. Since they have to enter the palace no matter what, what is the situation, they will wait until they enter the palace.

It's useless to worry about this and that now, it's better to have a good meal.

The mother and daughter returned to normal, Aunt Qin greeted Lian'er with a smile, and then Lian'er dared to pick up the meat with chopsticks and share the pot with everyone.

The atmosphere in the room gradually returned to normal. After eating and drinking enough and resting for a while, Aunt Qin wisely took Lian'er to leave.

She wanted to leave, but Shen Yunjie also stood up, the matter of entering the palace has nothing to do with her, it might be in the way if she stays.

Cui ordered Auntie and Aunt Qin to send Aunt Qin and others out of the house. She leaned on the soft couch and signaled the two sisters to sit down.

"What do you think?" There was no obscurity, and neither did their mother and daughter need to be so about this matter.

"Since the empress ordered us to come down, we will enter the palace. Why did you find us? After entering the palace, you will naturally know."

On weekdays, when Mrs. Cui asked what was going on, Shen Yunlan was responsible for answering. Today, Shen Yunjin spoke first.

"Yeah. That's the only way to go. Tomorrow, I'll send someone to the Anyang Marquis Mansion and ask your aunt to see if she's got the news, too?"

If the Marquis of Anyang is also invited, they can ask them to take care of the two sisters.

"What if... If the empress is interested in you two sisters and wants you to marry into the royal family?"

With the status of the Shen family, even if she marries into the royal family, she can only be a concubine and cannot become a regular wife.

As far as the Cui family is concerned, they would rather their daughters marry into ordinary families as regular wives than become concubines of wealthy families.

Although she is a regular wife, she also understands how difficult it is to be a concubine. Therefore, as long as the women in the backyard don't want to be stabbed, she is willing to make it easier for them.

"Mother, Yunlan and I are still young, even if the empress means it, she will never say it out loud. As long as she doesn't say it clearly, we can pretend to be stupid."

Glancing at Shen Yunlan, Shen Yunjin responded again.

"Mother, sister is right. Since we are still young, it is inevitable that we do not understand what your mother means. If she is really interested, she will invite mother to my grandparents' house after we come back, and ask my grandmother to come forward and give us sisters The two agreed to get married."

Even if it is the royal family, it cannot steal other people's daughter-in-law. If it is blamed, it will be said that the immature girl is young, so she cannot understand the holy will.

The Cui family is different from the Shen family. At that time, the royal family will not be able to embarrass the Cui family for this matter.

"Mother, don't worry too much. Maybe the empress asked us to enter the palace just to see the twin girls. Didn't the empress hate pampering concubines and destroying wives the most? If that's the case, she wouldn't ask us to be concubines of the royal family."

"As for the other unmarried princes...there are so many girls in Beijing who are better than our sisters, why choose girls from this second-rate family?"

Now that Cui Shi is pregnant, the two sisters don't want her to bother too much because of this matter, so they persuade her separately.

When the daughters said so, Cui thought about it carefully and felt a little relieved.

After keeping the daughters talking for a while, she told them to go back. The two sisters left the main courtyard and went to Shen Yunlan's Changxin Garden together.

They still have to discuss it.

-

It was agreed on the first day, and on the second day, Cui Shi sent someone to the Anyang Marquis Mansion.

She was a little relieved to get the news that Ji Yun was also invited, so she could help take care of the sisters one or two at that time.
