Chapter 51: The Head of the House

When Shen Mu hurried to Ronghui Hall after sending off the guests, it was already the end of the Shen period. Along the way, he was already stunned when he heard the maid's reply, he really didn't expect that he had only left for such a while, and such a big thing would happen. So, as soon as the last guest got into the carriage with his front foot, he couldn't wait to come with his hind foot.

On the way here, he imagined many possibilities, what he was most afraid of was that the old lady would use the topic to play and scold him, but what the old lady was best at was crying, making trouble and hanging himself......

However, Shen Mu never expected that the old lady in front of him was so kind and kind.

As soon as Mrs. Shen saw her son arrive, she smiled and beckoned the girl to have tea and went to buy dinner, but she was not a little unhappy.

Lu Shi pointed to a large stack of posts with gold characters on a red background on the table, and smiled brightly, "Mu'er, it's been less than two hours since the ladies went back, you see, there are already thirteen posts inviting Yun'er to come to the door......" Lu Shi glanced at Shen Mu meaningfully, and said firmly: "I'm afraid that our family will give out the golden phoenix!"

Then, under the hint of the old lady, Mama Jin told Shen Mu in detail about today's events and the pros and cons of analyzing with the old lady.

Shen Mu was surprised and surprised when he heard it, how could his well-behaved and lovely second daughter be so unbearable and not want to forge ahead, it was strange that his eldest daughter from a poor countryside could get into the blue eyes of so many noble ladies!

As for Aunt Xia, he had heard about the afternoon's incident, and planned to go over in the evening to appease her, but now, he had changed his mind.

In order to get the support of the Xia family with all his might, he has been spoiled by the Xia family all these years, and he has not carried his aunt into the door. In the past few years, although the charm of this summer red silk still exists, the temper is good. Today's events are indeed a major obstacle to his official reputation. It seems that this woman still can't be too spoiled! Let's chill her for a while, so as to appease the eldest daughter's heart, well, yes, I also want to let some rumors go out, so that everyone outside will know that he Shen Mu does not pay attention to the etiquette of the concubine, and disregards the determination to punish the humble!

Shen Muxin made up his mind, so he discussed today's matter with the old lady.

After a cup of tea, a maid came in to report: "The eldest lady is here...... Auntie and grandmother are here too!"

Lu Shi said with a smile on his face: "Hurry up and invite them in!"

The eye-catching Shen Moyun is quiet and elegant, with a natural noble charm, and the noble and dignified aura makes everyone in the inner room suffocated. Shen Ling, who followed Shen Moyun into the door, also looked at him obviously, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

I saw that she was dressed in a light gold floor-length brocade robe, from the neckline, belt, to the hem are carefully outlined by gold threads, although rich and bright, but she is wearing an elegant and delicate feeling; the apricot-yellow wide belt tightens the thin waist, which highlights her tall and slender figure; the three thousand green silk that has just been cleaned and twisted is simply tied in two buns, and the collapsed and slanted back of the head is exuding a faint jasmine fragrance, but the head is only decorated with a hosta. Her whole person looks dizzy, her beautiful eyes are fluorescent, and there is a faint breath of books between her eyebrows.

This kind of aura is not found in other girls in the Shen family, so this is also the reason why everyone is obviously stagnant just now. Shen Mu's eyes also made no secret of his appreciation for his eldest daughter's noble demeanor, and he couldn't help but be secretly proud in his heart.

"Tsk, look at my eldest girl, it's really one in a million! This kind of grace and elegance is outstanding even if it is placed on the boundary of our capital!" Shen Ling's words sounded like a compliment, but in fact, it came from her heart.

Just now, Shen Moyun needed to change her clothes after falling into the water, but her carriage and luggage had not yet been ready. So, Shen Ling pushed the boat down the river and volunteered to get a set of Wu Xiaoyu's clothes to change for Shen Moyun.

Hmph! Who told her to look at this eldest niece so pleasing today! As soon as this girl returned home, the Xia family's housekeeping rights were taken away. On the bright side, although this power was given to Shen Moyun, such a big child knew something, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it, and it was obvious that in this way, the rights of the entire Shen family's mid-feed housekeeper fell into her hands.

She didn't expect that this eldest niece was actually a capable person, of course she had to sell this favor, and the cooperation between the two was much more cost-effective than the Xia family's rectification in the future, and it was much more cost-effective to take back the housekeeper's rights. In this way, I am afraid that in the future, there will be more places where she needs to be silent!

However, this dress was very cheesy to wear on her daughter, and Yu'er tried it once, but refused to wear it. The clothes she brought casually, she didn't expect that this silent cloud could wear a different style!

"Tsk! Our Yun'er is really a natural clothes rack! It's much more refreshing and aura than your cousin wears! This dress is newly made, even if it is a meeting gift from your aunt, I hope Yun'er likes it!"

Shen Moyun had just finished saluting a few people, and when he heard this, he couldn't help grinning sweetly: "Niece, thank you aunt for your love, I like this dress very much! My aunt is bothered! My cousin is better than me, and she must be noble and dignified, glorious and elegant when she wears it; unlike me, she dresses like a bamboo pole, and she feels like she wears anything, and she spoils this delicate and expensive gold thread in vain." ”

Her clothes haven't been packed up yet, and there are only two people in this Shen Mansion who are Wu Xiaoyu and Shen Moqing who are about the same age as her, and she "doesn't dare" to wear the clothes of the second sister, so only this cousin is left. Wu Xiaoyu is plump and has wider cuffs, which is perfect for her ointment-coated arms. So, as soon as Shen Ling proposed, she readily agreed.

However, the aunt and grandmother are really as always, always do not forget to calculate, the words are really beautiful, a set of clothes is worth the aunt and nephew meeting gift, it is really a good deal!

Shen Moyun's words were also pleasing, belittled himself and praised Wu Xiaoyu's merits, and Shen Ling naturally laughed deeper.

Shen Mu looked at his daughter, whose grace and bearing were more and more similar to his deceased wife, and somehow a helplessness and uneasiness rose in his chest, mixed with an indescribable unhappiness, which made him very uncomfortable.

I only heard a "bang!", but it was Shen Mu who slapped the tea bowl on the table heavily, and even jumped twice with the bowl lid, and the tea overflowing from the bowl was falling down the corner of the table. I saw him blowing his beard and glaring and shouting: "You rebel girl! Who gave the courage to be so disrespectful and act recklessly! Why don't you hurry up and receive the punishment!"

Shen Mu came down suddenly, which startled the old lady and Shen Lingjun, and the two of them glared at him together, but in order to take care of his face as the head of the family, the two didn't say anything.

It's coming, it's finally here! Shen Moyun "hurriedly" stepped forward and knelt down in front of Lu Shi and Shen Mu, and kowtowed respectfully: "Yun'er returned to Beijing without the permission of her elders, Yun'er made a big mistake! Yun'er willingly accepted the punishment!" After speaking, she kowtowed three more times!

Shen Ling stepped forward to help Shen Moyun up, "Okay! This kid has suffered a lot today, and his legs and feet are also cold, how can he kneel like this? Get up quickly......"

"Presumptuous! I see that you dare to get up! Do you still have my father in your eyes?" Seeing the familiar cold and alienation in Shen Moyun's eyes, Shen Mu was inexplicably a little angry, picked up the blue and white porcelain tea bowl and smashed it on the edge of Shen Moyun's skirt. However, in the next moment, he began to regret it again, what was he angry about?

So, he said again: "Also, what about that Zhao Si, tell him to come and receive the punishment!"
