Chapter 58 058 The Queen's Business ([-])
And from their mouths, Shen Mengdie finally understood all the current situation of the Shen family.

Although the Shen family's property has declined in recent years, it has not hurt the foundation of the Shen family.And the reason why the Shen family was so anxious to find her back was to be able to continue the name of the imperial merchant and continue to operate the most profitable salt and iron.

Since ancient times, salt and ironware have been items under the control of the imperial court, and these two are also channels for the Shen family to obtain huge profits.She also finally understands why Mrs. Shen is so relieved that she will manage the Shen family. Let alone that she is the only legitimate daughter of the Shen family, even if she can't manage it, as long as the name of the Shen family's imperial merchant is still there, she will definitely not will fail.

After thinking about these rules and regulations, Shen Mengdie held his forehead speechlessly. "I thought there was an uphill battle to be fought, and you told me I just needed a name."

"That's all for today. I will go to various industries to understand the detailed issues in the next few days."

Facing Shen Mengdie's words, all the managers took their leave after expressing their understanding.

When she just walked out of the living room, the maid who had been waiting outside for a long time hurried forward. "Miss, the old lady ordered that today you will hold a ceremony to recognize relatives and enter your family tree."

"What time is it?"

"What time? What time?" The servant girl looked at her suspiciously, a little confused by what the young lady said.

Seeing her appearance, Shen Mengdie suddenly realized and changed her words quickly. "What time?"

"You hour."

"You hour..." Shen Mengdie counted secretly in her heart, and knew that it was about five to seven o'clock in the afternoon. "Got it, I'll go back and rest for a while, and let me know in advance."

"Okay, miss."

Hearing the servant girl's answer, she turned around and walked step by step towards the courtyard where she was temporarily staying.

"Cousin, why do you say let a wild girl take over the Shen family?"

When she just walked behind a rockery, she heard a woman say this, she planned to ignore it and continue walking back, but the next words of the other party attracted her attention.

"Cousin, it's not that you don't know that Shen Mengdie is a prostitute, and our collateral families can't compare."

Hearing the man say his name, Shen Mengdie quickly hid behind the rockery with his maid.

"What's the big deal, isn't she just a wild girl who has lost her relatives? Besides, who knows if she is the lost prostitute of the Shen family." The woman seemed very dissatisfied and very angry.

"Be careful, be careful. What should I do if others hear it?" The man's tone was a little nervous, and at the same time, the woman's mouth was covered and she could hear her panting.

"Hmm~"

"Why are you covering my mouth? It was originally."

"Okay, it's not safe here, let's go."

It wasn't until the footsteps of the two people gradually faded away that Shen Mengdie slowly walked out from behind the rockery.Looking at the figures of the two people in the distance, she pondered for a moment and then asked the maid next to her, "Do you know the two people just now?"

"The young master and cousin of the next generation." The maid was a little frightened after hearing such remarks with her own lady.

"Subsidiary..." Shen Mengdie pondered for a moment, then looked at the trembling servant girl beside her and warned, "What did you hear today?"

"Miss, I didn't hear anything." The maid hurriedly shook her head, her face turned pale.

"Remember, nothing happened today." After the last confession, Shen Mengdie stepped forward. She didn't want to participate in the chaotic relationship of this big family. As an outsider, everything It's just a fleeting moment.

……

"Miss, it's getting late, should we go now?"

When reminded by the maid beside her that it was getting late, Shen Mengdie put down the book she was reading. For some reason, the books of this dynasty were written in traditional characters.Although traditional Chinese characters are very complicated to write, but fortunately, she has learned a little calligraphy to practice calligraphy, but simple reading is not difficult for her.

"I'm the protagonist today, so don't keep everyone waiting." Shen Mengdie stood up, straightened her collar, and the maid beside her hurried forward to help tidy it up.

"Let's go."

Following her order, several personal servant girls followed her pace.

At this time, many people came to the hall, and these were the distant relatives of the Shen family who rushed here after learning that the prostitute had been found.Looking at these strangers, Shen Mengdie took the maid to find a seat and sat down, then quietly waited for the ceremony to start.

"Miss, please move to the ancestral hall." The middle-aged man in front of him is the chief housekeeper of the Shen family. Shen Mengdie had met several times when he first came to the Shen family.

"Trouble the butler to lead the way."

"Miss, please..."

Bringing her personal maid, she slowly walked towards the ancestral hall of the back house of the Shen family. Seeing this, other people in the hall quickly followed her pace.

Looking at the ancestral hall in front of her, she stopped outside for a while and walked in slowly.On one of the high seats are the tablets of the ancestors of the Shen family, and the smell of incense candles is very strong here.

Mrs. Shen, who was already waiting here, waved to her. "Son, come here."

After Shen Mengdie came to the old man's side, she turned her attention to the other old people. While looking at the people in doubt, she couldn't help guessing in her heart. "Are these people the elders of the Shen family?"

"Child, kneel before the tablet of the ancestor."

Shen Mengdie straightened her clothes and slowly knelt on the futon, silently waiting for their next move.

Then a clan elder took out a booklet and read: "Today, the prostitute daughter of the Shen family has returned to the family..."

Listening to the other party's rambling speech, Shen Mengdie could only listen quietly until after a long time, when she watched the clan elder write her name on the suspected genealogy booklet, she finally gave a signal to Mrs. Shen. Xia slowly stood up, took the incense handed from the side, bowed deeply to the memorial tablet three times, and inserted the incense into the incense altar in front.

After entering the family tree, Shen Mengdie is truly a member of the Shen family.After the matter was over, Mrs. Shen left first to go back to her small courtyard. After Shen Mengdie walked out of the ancestral hall, what she faced was the temptation and friendship of various collaterals or distant relatives, and she adopted an evasive attitude towards it. Prepare to be good and not ready to be evil.

In the following days, Mrs. Shen basically stayed behind closed doors, and no longer let everyone go to pay her respects. Facing her attitude, Shen Mengdie stopped paying attention after thinking for a while.In this big family, the less you know about some things, the better. No matter how jealous the backyard is, how jealous of her current position, she is still doing her own thing, using what she has learned, step by step. Controlling the economic lifeline of the Shen family.

Just after she built the Shen family into her one-way house, the people in the collateral line couldn't sit still.Originally thought that even if the prostitute came back, she would be just a wild girl in the countryside, but she didn't know that the other party's guess was completely different from her own.
