After someone from the main room passed the word, Mingyu had been quietly adding a lot of Shen Tianshu's face.

Shen Tianshu was reading a book, but she stared at her like this, and she couldn't stand it anymore and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

Mingyu cautiously asked, "Girl, let's go for dinner, shall we?" ”

The Shen family has to get together for dinner every first day, fifteenth day and New Year's holiday, and every time it comes to such a day in the past, Shen Tianshu will be squeezed and bullied, so Mingyu always can't help but worry.

But thinking of Shen Tianshu's performance in Hua'an Hall this afternoon, Mingyu couldn't help but tell herself in her heart that the girl was no longer the little girl who was bullied before.

Shen Tianshu raised his hand to cover his mouth, yawned and said, "Naturally, I want to go." ”

Since she fell into the water, she has not seen the younger brothers and sisters of the original owner, and she has such a good opportunity to see the whole family today, how could she be absent.

When Mingyu heard this, she began to look for clothes and jewelry, urging Shen Tianshu to quickly dress up.

"Isn't that good?" Shen Tianshu looked at the bamboo blue jacket she had just changed on, the original owner's clothes were mostly light and elegant colors, which were just in line with her preferences.

"My good girl, I was just trained by my wife last time because I was dressed too plainly, why did you forget it so quickly."

As soon as Shen Tianshu heard this, he immediately extinguished the little thought he had of changing clothes, waved his hand and said, "Don't toss, she doesn't dare to trouble me now." ”

It was almost dinner time, and it was already dark outside.

Mingyu tied Shen Tianshu's cloak, gave her the handstove plug that had just been filled with charcoal to warm her hands, and asked the two little maids to lead the way in front with the lights, and she followed behind.

Although the Xu family is mean, the rules of the Shen Mansion are still there, Shen Tianshu, as the eldest daughter, lives in a courtyard closer to the main house than the other sisters, and the courtyard is larger.

Coming out of Shuangtang Courtyard, passing through a long and narrow garden, and then passing through two moon gates, is the main house where Shen Zhonglei and Xu's are located.

Shen Tianshu walked along the corridor towards the door, and heard a burst of laughter in the room, mixed with Shen Zhonglei's rich laughter from time to time, which was really happy.

"I really don't want to be a person who spoils the atmosphere." Shen Tianshu said softly, "It's a pity that there is no way!" ”

Sure enough, the little maid at the door raised the curtain, Shen Tianshu stepped into the house, and the laughter in the house stopped abruptly.

Shen Zhonglei and Xu's sat on the couch, and a boy in his early teens snuggled up next to Shen Zhonglei, who was Shen Yuanlin, the sister-in-law of the Shen family from Xu's family.

He was white and chubby, next to Shen Zhonglei as if he had no bones, and he twisted his body coquettishly from time to time.

Shen Zhonglei was obviously very useful, and his eyes were full of love when he looked at his son.

After Shen Tianshu saw Shen Yuanlin's appearance clearly, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he always felt that something was wrong, but that trace of doubt was fleeting, and he didn't have time to grasp it.

The girl wearing red and green next to Xu's side is Xu's biological daughter - Shen Yunyao, who is fourteen years old this year.

Although she was standing next to Xu, she had been talking to Shen Zhonglei across the table, telling him what had happened at home during this time.

As soon as Shen Zhonglei smiled, her face immediately showed a strong sense of achievement.

The mother and son standing behind Xu are Shen Zhonglei's only concubine Pingniang and her daughter Shen Yunhui.

Ping Niang is Xu's dowry maid, and when Xu was pregnant with Shen Yunyao, she was opened and made a room, and she soon became pregnant.

So Shen Yunhui is only one year younger than Shen Yunyao.

Soon after Shen Yunhui was born, the Xu family became pregnant again, and later gave birth to Shen Yuanlin, which can be regarded as completely securing Mrs. Shen's position.

Shen Tianshu didn't know why the other sisters lined up with the word cloud, only the original owner's name was the word sky.

But she still prefers Tianzi to Yunzi.

"The daughter has seen her father, her mother." Shen Tianshu didn't care about the atmosphere in the room, and after stepping forward to salute, he went to Shen Zhonglei's head and sat down.

Seeing this, Shen Yunyao immediately frowned and said, "Eldest sister, didn't my mother say before that you should not dress too plainly at home, young girls, you should dress brightly, otherwise others will think that there is something bad about our family!" ”

Shen Yunhui immediately echoed: "Yes, eldest sister, my mother said this for our own good, after that time, didn't my mother specially ask someone to open the warehouse and find clothes for us to send over."

You see that my body today is made for me by my mother, and my eldest sister must have it there, but I have to wear old clothes, doesn't it hurt my mother's heart! ”

The two sisters sang and harmonized, and they cooperated very tacitly, obviously not the first time they had done such a thing.

Shen Tianshu raised his eyes to look at Xu Shi when he heard this, but there seemed to be a threat hidden in his calm eyes.

Xu Shi looked away, took a deep breath and said: "What you wear is not the same, your eldest sister is demure and gentle, wearing such an elegant color, it just looks like a chrysanthemum, isn't it very good-looking!" ”

Shen Yunyao didn't expect her mother to suddenly switch camps and help Shen Tianshu speak, her eyes widened a little, and she looked at Xu in surprise.

Shen Zhonglei stroked his palm when he heard this: "What Madame said is very true, Yaxuan liked to be light and elegant back then, and Shu'er must have followed her like this." ”

Yaxuan is the name of the original owner's biological mother.

Shen Tianshu looked at Shen Zhonglei with his peripheral vision, and saw that his expression was not abnormal, it seemed that he did not mean it, but he didn't feel that it was inappropriate for him to mention the original equipment in front of the steproom.

Xu's hand under the table suddenly clenched, and the Jinpa in his hand was rubbed out of shape.

She gritted her teeth, tried to squeeze out a smile and said: "Since everyone is here, I will ask someone to prepare to serve the food, if it is cold today, I specially asked the kitchen to make a pot today to warm up the body." ”

Xu went to the back kitchen to have dinner, and Shen Yunyao was about to continue to pretend to be obedient in front of Shen Zhonglei, but Shen Zhonglei turned to Shen Tianshu and asked, "I heard in the Yamen today that you went to the temple on the outskirts of the city to pray for the snow to stop?" ”

"Compared with my father's hard work for the people, I just went to the temple in the suburbs of Beijing to pray for blessings, which is really not worth mentioning."

"All the lords of the Yamen have praised you, and they have praised you as a father, and they feel that their faces are very bright, although it is not a big deal, but it is rare that you have this heart." After Shen Zhonglei praised Shen Tianshu, he turned his head to the two sisters and said, "You two don't just know how to play at home, learn more from your eldest sister, if you can have half of her, I have nothing to worry about." ”

Seeing that the eyes cast by the two cheap sisters opposite were getting more and more unkind, Shen Tianshu really had nothing to say about this cheap father.

Just now one sentence made Xu's angry run, and now he has divided his three daughters into two camps with one mouth.

In the long run, it will be difficult not to be hostile to each other.

He was unaware of his own life, immersed in what he thought was family happiness.
