The Shen family came very early, and the sky was slightly bright, and Shen Zhizhi entertained her mother's family as the hostess for the first time.

The eldest and second masters of the Shen family, as well as the elder brothers and younger brothers, were chatting with Zhao Yuanhao, and during the chat, the eldest master Shen was more and more satisfied with this second son-in-law.

Unlike other people who communicate with Zhao Yuanhao with a purpose, Master Shen really cares about Shen Zhizhi, and this time he came here for this daughter, and by the way, he will inspect this son-in-law.

Now that I see that my daughter and son-in-law get along very well, I am finally relieved.

Zhao Yuanhao respects this father-in-law quite a lot.

As for the female dependents, the eldest lady looked at this concubine whom she had always hated, and now her status was higher than her mother-in-law, if it weren't for the fact that she was an elder, she was afraid that she would have to salute this concubine now, and she was particularly flawless and chose a gentlemanly fourth prince, thinking of this, the eldest lady felt uncomfortable in her heart, and the handkerchief in her hand was twisted.

The corner of the second lady's eyes saw the strange appearance of the eldest lady, and the smile on her face became even brighter.

It's rare that there is no exit run on the eldest lady, the second lady still knows how to advance and retreat, today's day is a great opportunity for their Shen family to expand their contacts, and no one will waste their minds on this little thing.

Of course, the Grand Lady is no exception.

Otherwise, she would not have the image of a loving mother in front of Shen Zhizhi.

At this time, Shen Wufang and Shen Wuwu were talking to Shen Zhizhi.

The fourth sister, Shen Jingjing, did not come.

Shen Zhizhi sighed slightly, this sister's temperament ...... Ay.

Today's Shen Wufang is radiant, wearing a pink peach blossom Turui smoke shirt, with a pure and beautiful temperament, who made her now the side concubine of the Four Princes, and she will marry into the Four Princes' Mansion on the auspicious day in three days.

Greeted Shen Wuflaw with a smile, she didn't care about the seeming show off in Shen Wuflaw's eyes, she just calmly said to her, "Congratulations." ”

Shen Wufang's eyes quickly crossed with self-satisfaction, and the grievances after leaving were as if nothing had happened.

Since General Zhao's return, she has not seen Shen Zhizhi, and now she sees Shen Zhizhi's face like a peach and plum, her complexion is excellent, and she is obviously living a very good life in the General's Mansion.

But...... Shen Wufang, who has had a lifetime experience, can easily distinguish some differences, judging from Shen Zhizhi's words and deeds, she is still in perfect condition...... Haha, it turns out that Shen Zhizhi's happiness is just the appearance.

Shen Wuxian exhaled a trace of turbidity, it was really relieving.

The rumors in the upper circles are really true, and the handsome general with a great reputation really has a hidden disease.

This Shen Zhizhi has a husband, it is better not to have a husband.

It's a widow's life.

Tsk, a sense of superiority suddenly rose in Shen Wufang's heart.

"Zhizhi, is my brother-in-law kind to you?"

Shen Zhizhi looked at the malice that flashed in Shen Wufang's eyes with interest, pursed her lips and smiled, her smile was extremely beautiful, and Shen Wufang, who was standing in front of her, was immediately compared.

"My husband is very good to me."

"Really? That's good, it looks like I'm going to be an aunt soon. The corners of Shen Wuxi's lips raised a meaningful smile, but in his heart, he sneered at Shen Zhizhi for trying to save face and hold on.

"By the way, Zhizhi, I heard that my brother-in-law gave the emperor a recipe for making ice, do you know that recipe?"

Speaking of this, Shen Wuxian felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

Now that drought has occurred in some places, General Zhao Yuanhao's proposal to build ice cellars and reserve ice cubes to solve the drought problem is well known to the world.

The people who were worried about the drought were even more grateful to the imperial court and General Zhao, and they made a name for themselves among the people.

In the future, when the drought is even more severe, this reputation will be even worse.

Originally, this qiē was deserved by the four princes, but in the previous life, the third prince and the fifth prince were disappointing the emperor because of the unfavorable disaster relief, which led the people to □□, and finally what was very surprising was that the four princes, who were usually unbearable, solved the disaster problem.

Since the disaster, the Four Princes have gained great prestige among the people.

The emperor also changed his opinion of this son and slowly relied on the four princes.

It can be said that this disaster is an opportunity for the rise of the four princes, but in this life, because Zhao Yuanhao inexplicably survived, everything was derailed.

Now that the drought has just appeared, the big problem behind it has been solved, and Shen Wuxian hates Zhao Yuanhao who hinders the fourth prince in his heart.

You say that you are a military general, why are you meddling in your affairs and obstructing other people's paths?

Without this opportunity, the four princes must lie dormant as before, and they don't know when they will be able to ascend to that position.

Unable to brush up his reputation, Shen Wufang could only retreat to the second best thing and seek wealth.

Without enough money, great things cannot be accomplished.

Shen Wufang felt that she should do her part to make the four princes look up to her.

So Shen Wufang put his idea on the ice-making recipe.

It's a pity that they only know that this method of making ice is very simple and the price is very low, but they don't know how to make zuò, so Shen Wufang knocked on Shen Zhizhi's side to see if he could get something.

Even if the price of ice cubes has dropped a lot now, it is still in short supply, and the profits are amazing.

It's no wonder that Shen Wufang is not red-eyed.

"This is the recipe that my husband found, I don't know, and I haven't asked." Of course, Shen Zhizhi would not admit that he had come up with the ice-making recipe.

Now this recipe has been dedicated to the emperor, who used it to make a lot of money to fill the treasury, and at the same time built large ice cellars in various places.

"Really? That's a shame. ”

Shen Wufang's smile stiffened slightly, a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes, Shen Zhizhi secretly sneered, even if Shen Wufang didn't believe it, what did it have to do with her.

However, looking at her proud appearance, I thought badly about what Shen Wuxi's face would be if he saw the arrival of his gentle and handsome ex-husband, Xiao Qilang.

Shen Wuwu on the side saw that Shen Zhizhi had been chatting with the eldest sister, and couldn't help but step forward angrily and pull Shen Zhizhi away.

Shen Wuwu glanced at Shen Wufang, who was looking at the two sisters with a smile, pursed his lips, and muttered in a dissatisfied whisper: "Zhizhi, let me tell you, the eldest sister has been beautiful these days, and all the people in the mansion are flattering the eldest sister, as if she is the only eldest lady in the mansion." ”

It turned out that she was left out in the cold and felt uncomfortable, Shen Zhizhi secretly laughed and comforted her: "Everyone has their own fate, and it is also her ability for the eldest sister to marry the fourth prince as a side concubine, and the days will be long in the future, what can you change if you are angry now?" ”

Shen Wuwu stomped his feet and said angrily: "Anyway, I just can't get used to seeing her like that." ”

"Okay, you rest here first, find Mama Zhang if you have something, I'm busy today, and when the guests come, Mama Zhang will notify you to help."

Shen Zhizhi said hello to her mother's family, left Mama Zhang and the others, and left the courtyard.

As time passed, the entrance to the General's Mansion finally came alive, with a constant stream of horse-drawn carriages, or extravagant or low-key carriages parked all over the street.

The invited popular opera troupe has already set up the stage, and the sound of silk and bamboo is floating everywhere in the entire General's Mansion, which adds a bit of festivity.

A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance.

Mrs. Zhao sat on the top, her face was full of red light, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes faded a lot, especially the half-blackened green silk was very conspicuous, which made Mrs. Zhao more than ten years younger.

She looked at the full house and was in a good mood, chatting with several old ladies of the same status and age who had come.

However, the focus of these old ladies was all on how to make Mrs. Zhao younger, and they asked Mrs. Zhao for the secret recipe.

Where Mrs. Zhao has secret recipes, they are all medicinal recipes prescribed to her by her daughter-in-law for her body.

This cannot be said.

There is Mrs. Zhao in the inner hall, and Shen Zhizhi and others are in charge outside, but now Shen Zhizhi and his party are in the largest lobby in the mansion to greet the distinguished guests who enter the mansion.

The woman is responsible for entertaining the female dependents, and the male is responsible for entertaining the male guests.

The guests arrived in waves, and Shen Zhizhi and them were busy.

The birthday gifts sent by each government are sung and read by the steward, and they are put away directly on the gift list.

When Shen had no time to spare, he glanced at a pair of seemingly heaven-made beauties in front of him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a mocking and gloating arc.

When I turned around, I saw the third sister Shen Wuwu stretching her neck and looking out of the door, no need to guess, she must be waiting for her fiancé Wei Yong, Shen Wufang lowered her eyes and sneered, and climbed up to Wei Yong's man, and she had to bear it in the future.

Not to mention Shen Wufang's various thoughts, Shen Zhizhi felt that the smile on his face was about to stiffen, seeing the tiredness on his little wife's pretty face, Zhao Yuanhao was very distressed, and took advantage of the fact that no one came in now, let her rest first.

"Zhizhi, you rest for a while, and I'll go to the inner hall to take a look at the situation."

Shen Zhizhi smiled and nodded, by the way, he called the five-year-old uncle, Zhao Yucan's appearance made Shen Zhizhi impressed, but he didn't expect this little uncle to greet the guests one by one.

Many young girls saw a serious uncle who was pretending to be a little adult to entertain guests, and the smile on his face deepened, and they all admired.

As soon as Shen Zhizhi sat down, Xi'er hurriedly poured a cup of tea for the young lady and the young master.

"Can'er, your table today is great." Shen Zhizhi finished drinking the tea and gave a thumbs up to the little uncle sitting next to him.

My sister-in-law praised him......

Zhao Yucan's face was slightly shy, but his eyes were shining, obviously very happy.

Seeing that there were a lot of guests coming, but still no one from the Wei State Mansion, Shen Wuwu was a little embarrassed, couldn't help but stomp his feet, walked up to Shen Zhizhi and asked in a whisper.

"Zhizhi, didn't you say that the people from the Wei State Mansion would come? Why haven't you seen it yet? ”

Shen Zhizhi was speechless at Shen Wuwu's eagerness.

Generally, the big guys come out in the back.

"Don't worry, with the status of the Duke of Wei, you won't come so early, it's useless for you to be in a hurry, take a sip of tea and rest first."

"Okay, I'll wait." Shen Wuwu suddenly became energetic.

The more you reach the end, the higher your status.

But that's how it happened,

The four princes, Wei Yong of the Wei State Mansion, Ji Rong of the worry-free ex-husband's fiancé's family, Xiao Qilang of the Yongjiahou Mansion, and Sun Mingwei of the Jianbo Hou Mansion...... Comes with an Anqing, the second son of An Guogong, a flawless admirer.

People from these provinces arrived at the General's Mansion at the same time.

Zhao Yuanhao and Shen Zhizhi heard the report of the next person, their expressions were very subtle, the corners of Shen Zhizhi's eyes twitched, and they complained silently, what kind of fate is this, they actually got together.

Especially the grandson who she had long forgotten in the corner.

Sun Shizi?

Zhao Yuanhao narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Of course, it was Shen Wufang who reacted the most, and blurted out in an instant: "How could Xiao Qilang wake up?" ”

Suddenly, the eyes of the entire lobby converged on the gaffe Shen Wufang.
