Chapter 25 and the Eve of the Ceremony 1

At noon that day, the second decree came to the palace, and the queen mother issued a decree to punish Shen Yijia for copying the scriptures by hand a hundred times.

Speaking of Shen Yimeng, when the news of Shen Yijia's punishment spread that day, she was ridiculed, but she didn't expect that her arrogant and invincible sister would actually make a "glorious deed" of traveling hand in hand with His Royal Highness King Qin, which is really disgusting.

The days passed, as the days of the ceremony got closer and closer, the house became lively day by day, people came and went to arrange the venue of the ceremony, and the old lady also sent people to invite Shen Qing to finalize the list of the final banquet several times.

Shen Yijia's reputation was ruined because of the holy decree, even if she didn't ruin this kind of large-scale banquet, it would be impossible for her to have a concubine to preside over it, otherwise it would be spread out and others wouldn't know what to say about their Prime Minister's Mansion. Although Wan'er is not very old, whether it is the wrist or something else, it is the demeanor that everyone should have, and if she goes out, she will definitely not lose the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it is not like her unconscious second granddaughter, who has lost all of her face to the Prime Minister's Mansion at once, and the fiancΓ© who covets her sister-in-law is really not good to say, and she will stink her own reputation, but has she ever thought that there are five daughters to be married in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, and she has come out like this, If others want to ask to marry the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, they have to consider whether they are all like Shen Yijia.

The more the old lady thought about it, the more angry she became, and she was about to have a seizure when she heard the maid lift the curtain and say, "Miss Six is here." He pressed it down, forget it, it is still important for the other girls' families to pay tribute, Shen Yijia's matter, when she comes out of the Buddha Hall, she naturally can't spare her, and she can't make trouble at this juncture.

"It's late, sit." The old lady said with a smile, "Have you read the list I asked Qiu Yan to send you a few days ago?" I've asked a few of your sisters to ask.,This is a list of likers that they handed over and wanted to invite.,I think there's just such a thing in our house.,This and the ceremony has to be lively.,But it's not appropriate to invite too many young ladies to be praisers.,You look at and consider removing two.,And the matter of this female guest.,On the fifth day of the new year, you will be fully responsible for the evening.,Grandmother is old..."

Shen Qingwan lowered her head and listened carefully, her fingers flipped through the roster in her hand, and Shen Yimeng and the three of them each handed over two or three people's names, and there were as many as eight in total. It's either their handkerchiefs, or the ladies and girls of the big family, but... The Prime Minister's Mansion has just had such a thing, and people with too prominent identities are probably not so willing to come to this troubled water.

"Grandmother, granddaughter thinks that the three sisters have set these young ladies, it must be better on weekdays, and the granddaughter does not dare to make decisions without authorization, there are still five days before the fifth day of the seventh month, or we will let a few sisters send letters to each house to see if there is any arrangement, if we have time, we have a great business in the Xiangfu family, and it is not too much to invite them no matter how bad they are, if those young ladies have something to do..."Shen Qingwan considered it and spoke, this kind of thing, if she made up her mind alone, It's too easy to offend people, it's better to let Shen Yimeng write a letter to ask, if people don't want to be this praiser, it's no wonder that she.

The old lady nodded, "Then do as you say." "My sixth granddaughter, is really a housekeeper talent, I thought that as soon as the Liu family stepped down from the house, the big and small things would have to be messed up, and I didn't have the energy to stare at it all the time like when I was young.

Shen Qingwan smiled, "As for the list of young ladies to be invited that my grandmother told my granddaughter, my granddaughter thinks that there are three people. ”

"Oh? There are three people that you think can't be, so what kind of three people do you say, why can't you? The old lady asked with a smile, already having the answer in her heart.

"The granddaughter thinks that the two young ladies of the third sister's mother's family cannot be invited, first because of Aunt Liu's incident a few days ago, our house is a little rusty with the waiter's house, and then it is the second sister's matter, if we invite the young lady of the Liu family here again, wouldn't it make people criticize our prime minister's house? The second is the young lady of the fourth sister's family, our Ling Qi has always pursued the 'Shinong industry and commerce businessman is the last', regardless of whether the other ladies and girls look down on the fourth sister's family, but those ladies are golden branches and jade leaves after all, in case something goes wrong, our prime minister's house can't afford it. Shen Qing cleared her throat and continued, "The other granddaughters can't think of it, it's just that the two county lords of Prince Ping's family and King Qing's family have never dealt well with the two county lords, and the granddaughter thought that when the time came, she invited Jinyang to help her granddaughter entertain the two county lords, and the granddaughter was afraid that it would be bad if there was a conflict and affect the etiquette of several sisters." ”

The old lady looked at Shen Qingwan, who was full of seriousness, and smiled, "Wan'er is right, grandmother has also considered this problem, but this invited a few county lords and county lords, and it is unreasonable not to invite county lords. ”

"The granddaughter arrived yesterday to visit the eldest princess in the eldest princess's mansion, and she has already received the approval of the eldest princess, otherwise the granddaughter would not dare to tell her grandmother to invite Jinyang to come." Shen Qingwan said softly, speaking of which, she and Jin Yang don't know each other... When I was a child, the two of them were the little overlords in the palace, and no one let anyone, although Shen Qing was only a county lord from the second grade at that time, although the other county lords were named the county lords, they were all the same as her from the second grade, and the two of them were not bad at all, and they were not so good-tempered, and they were light when they met, I remember that once she was spoofed by Jin Yang and fell into the pool in the palace in the winter, and she had a cold and went to half her life, but Jin Yang was also punished by the eldest princess afterwards and knelt at the gate of Wuyuan for two days until she woke up. Later, when they became sensible, the two stopped doing it, but this friend was made.

Jinyang belongs to the typical girl family, and the girl who tears at every turn is not the same style at all, dare to love and hate, Jinyang in the previous life was even worse than himself, married a poor scholar, that person relied on the blessing of the eldest princess's mansion to win the favor of the emperor and the ministers of the court, but when he became famous, he connived at the concubine to poison Jinyang, and the vicious concubine with bad intentions was her good fifth sister Shen Yiyue!

Shen Qingwan clenched her fists, closed her eyes lightly and suppressed her hatred, she would not let go of any of the people who had harmed her and the people she cared about in her previous life, none of those people were innocent, they all had blood on their hands, I just don't know if those people would not be able to accept that cruel reality when they ushered in their due retribution.

The sky gradually darkened, Shen Qingwan sat at the desk and thought about things, on the 25th, the Liu family sent someone to send the 450,000 taels of silver owed, as for how she got it together, Shen Qingwan was not very interested, if nothing else... Grandmother should be in a hurry, after all, the only way to make the Liu family collect the money in a short period of time is to secretly use the "baby" in the old lady's private treasury.

Thinking of the night pearl sent by Zhinan, who was in charge of Ruibaotang a few days ago, Shen Qingwan smiled, I was afraid that Liu would never have dreamed that Ruibaotang was actually her industry, and if she knew, she would not have "sold" that night pearl cheaply. Shen Qing frowned in the evening, the old lady is really interesting, let others send things back for herself, and keep her mouth shut about the few treasures she took, thanks to the Liu family, otherwise how could she get the key to the old lady's private vault? If something happens one day, Liu is the best scapegoat, spending 200,000 taels to buy the Night Pearl, but the money is back to his hands intact, and he took back the red coral bracelet and jade head left by his mother, and this transaction is not a loss at all.

The waterlogging has come to an end, I hope that there will be no moth in the house, now the Liu family was grounded in his own courtyard, Shen Yijia was punished to kneel in the Buddhist hall to copy the scriptures, there should be no time to add to the chaos, if he guessed correctly, Shen Yimeng will be released today, after all, Ming'er is the first day of junior high school, the old lady must talk about the ceremony, it is impossible to take care of Shen Yimeng anymore, not to mention that in the final analysis, it is the Liu family who makes mistakes, isn't it.

As Shen Qingwan guessed, as soon as she left Yi'anju, the old lady sent someone to the Buddhist hall to release Shen Yimeng, but when Shen Yimeng held Chunxing's hand and walked weakly to the Lotus Appreciation Pavilion, as soon as she entered the house, Shen Yimeng's whole person trembled, and he fainted in front of him.

Chun Xing raised her head and looked around, where is this still like a house of noble daughters, there are no valuable things, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a family with four walls, and it is no wonder that Shen Yimeng is going to faint, the decoration and furnishings of the previous Lotus Pavilion are not very good, but they are not bad, now don't say that there are ten good things, in addition to the bed and table, even the soft collapse and the guqin have been removed, it is really the autumn wind transit, "the piece of armor is not left".

After a while, the little maid invited the house doctor to come over, and the house doctor seriously took Shen Yimeng's wrist and said in a deep voice, "The third girl is overly frightened, plus she hasn't rested well in the past few days, her diet is not proper, and the lack of qi and blood has led to a coma, wait a minute, I will prescribe a pair of Chinese medicine for the third girl..."

Chunxing nodded, "I'm sorry for you." ”

The house doctor waved his hand, "Don't bother, don't bother, look at your girl." ”

Shen Qingwan was listening to Mu Tao say that Shen Yimeng fainted, but she was not too surprised, "That's not it, my third sister, the most precious thing is her jewelry and clothes, and the Liu family is not authentic, and it is almost empty at one time, no wonder Shen Yimeng will faint." ”

"What the young lady said is that the slave maid heard that when the people in front of the third girl went to ask for a house doctor, several people pushed back and forth, and finally let a newly sent third-class maid go to ask for a house doctor." Mu Tao smiled and squinted her eyes and said, her young lady has always been at odds with Aunt Liu's mother and daughter, and the third girl always uses some tricks to calculate her young lady, and she is naturally happy to see the third girl and her party in trouble.

"Tao'er, Ming'er and Han'er will go with me to my grandmother's place, and when the time comes, you will arrange for our people to go to the vicinity of the Buddha Hall, that's all..."Shen Qingwan commanded in a low voice, and Mu Tao nodded after listening.

"It's late at night, young lady, go to sleep." Mu Tao looked out the window, it was already early.

Shen Qing answered the call and walked to the edge of the collapse and lay down.
