And from their mouths, Shen Mengdie finally understood everything about the Shen family's current situation.

Although the Shen family's industry has had some downward trends in recent years, this has not hurt the foundation of the Shen family. And the reason why the Shen family was in such a hurry to find her back was also to be able to continue to be in the name of the imperial merchant and continue to operate the most profitable salt and iron.

Since ancient times, salt and iron tools have been items controlled by the imperial court, and these two are also channels for the Shen family to obtain huge profits. She also finally understood why Old Madam Shen was so relieved that she would manage the Shen family, not to mention that she was the only righteous concubine of the Shen family at present, even if she couldn't manage, as long as the Shen family's name as an imperial merchant was still there, she would definitely not fall.

After thinking about these rules and regulations, Shen Mengdie was a little speechless. "I thought there was a tough battle to be fought, but you told me I just had to put a name on it."

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

In the face of Shen Mengdie's words, the stewards left one after another after expressing their understanding.

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

"What time is it?"

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

When Shen Mengdie saw her appearance, she suddenly reacted and hurriedly changed her words. "What hour?"

"Unitary time."

"Youshi ......" Shen Mengdie secretly counted in her heart, knowing 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 when the time comes. ”

"Yes, miss."

Hearing the maid's answer, she turned around and walked towards the courtyard where she was now temporarily living.

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

As soon as she walked behind a rockery, she heard a woman say this, and she was going to ignore it and continue to walk back, but the other party's next words attracted her attention.

"Cousin, it's not that you don't know that Shen Mengdie is a concubine, and we can't compare with each other."

Hearing the man say his name, Shen Mengdie hurriedly took the maid and avoided behind the rockery.

"What's the big deal, isn't it just a wild girl who has died of a loved one? Besides, who knows if she is the concubine of the Shen family who went missing back then. The woman seemed very dissatisfied, and she was very angry.

"Be cautious, be cautious. How is it good to be heard? The man's tone was a little nervous, and the woman's gasp could be heard as she covered her mouth.

"Hmm~~"

"Why are you covering my mouth? It would have been. ”

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

It wasn't until the footsteps of the two people 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 beside her, "Do you know the two just now?" ”

"The young master and the cousin of the side." The maid was a little frightened when she heard this kind of remark with her own lady.

"Sideline ......" Shen Mengdie pondered for a moment, then looked at the trembling maid beside him and warned, "What did you hear today?" ”

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

"Remember, nothing happened today." After the final explanation, Shen Mengdie stepped forward, she didn't want to participate in anything in this chaotic relationship between the big family, as an outsider, everything was just a passing moment.

……

"Miss, it's not too early, should you go over now?"

When she was reminded by the maid next to her that it was not early, Shen Mengdie put down the book she was looking at in her hand, and the books of this dynasty used traditional Chinese characters for some reason. Although traditional Chinese characters make it complicated to write, but fortunately, she once learned a little to practice calligraphy, but just reading a book 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 hurriedly stepped forward to help tidy it up.

"Let's go."

With her order, several personal maids followed her pace.

At this time, many people had already come to the hall, and these were the distant relatives of the Shen family who came over specially when they learned that their concubine had been found. Looking at these strangers, Shen Mengdie took the maid to find a seat and sit down, and then quietly waited for the ceremony to begin.

"Please move to the ancestral hall." The middle-aged man in front of him was the chief housekeeper of the Shen family, and Shen Mengdie had met him a few times when he first came to the Shen family.

"The big butler leads the way."

"Miss, please ......"

With her personal maid, she slowly walked towards the ancestral hall of the Shen family's back house, and the other people in the hall saw this and hurriedly followed her pace.

Looking at the ancestral hall in front of her, she paused outside for a moment and then slowly walked in. On the high position of one side is the tablets of the ancestors of the Shen family, and the smell of incense and candles is very strong here.

Old Madam Shen, who was already waiting here, beckoned to her. "Boy, come here."

After Shen Mengdie came to the old man's side, she set her eyes on the other old men, and while looking at the person who came suspiciously, she couldn't help but guess in her heart. "Could these people be the patriarchs of the Shen family?"

"Child, kneel down before the tablet of your ancestors."

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

As a clan elder took out a booklet, he opened his mouth and read: "Today, the daughter of the Shen family has returned to the family......

Listening to the other party's chattering speech, Shen Mengdie only listened quietly, until a long time later, after watching the patriarch write her name on the suspected genealogy booklet, she slowly stood up at the signal of Mrs. Shen, took the incense handed by the side, bowed deeply to the tablet three times, and inserted the incense into the incense altar in front of her.

After entering the family tree, Shen Mengdie is really a member of the Shen family. After the matter was over, Mrs. Shen left first to go back to her own courtyard, after Shen Mengdie walked out of the ancestral hall, she faced the temptation and friendship of various collateral or distant relatives, and she adopted an evasive attitude towards this, and she was not ready to make friends or enemies.

In the following days, Old Madam Shen basically closed the door, and no longer let everyone go to ask for peace, in the face of her attitude, Shen Mengdie stopped paying attention after thinking for a while. In this big family, there are some things that the less you know, the better, no matter how jealous the back house is, and how the people on the side are jealous of her current position, she is still doing her own thing, using what she has learned to know, step by step to control the economic lifeline of the Shen family.

Just after she made the Shen family her Yiyan Hall, the people on the side couldn't sit still. I thought that even if my daughter came back, she would just be a wild girl in the countryside, but she didn't know that the other party was completely different from her own conjecture.
