When Lin Ruan arrived at Shen's house, as soon as Princess Shen saw her coming, she smiled and said to the Tong family: "How about it, let me say it." ”

Lin Ruan smiled and asked, "Grandmother, what's going on?" ”

Tong couldn't stop laughing: "We made a bet with the old lady and said that you would come over today, and sure enough, the old lady guessed correctly." ”

Princess Shen said with a smile: "The people in Kyoto don't know how long they have been waiting for her to return to Beijing, and now where can they sit still when they hear the wind." As far as her non-social nature is concerned, she must have found a place to hide early. ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "It's still my grandmother who understands me." ”

Tong smiled and said, "You girl, I saw your long-sleeved dancing appearance in the store before, I really didn't expect you to dislike socializing with others." ”

Lin Ruan grinned: "Can that be the same?" In the store, I entertain the God of Wealth, and the more I come, the better. ”

Princess Shen smiled and stretched out her finger and nodded her nose: "You are a money fan." Even if you don't come today, your second aunt will send someone to call you. ”

Lin Ruan turned her head curiously to look at Second Lady Shen, "Second Aunt, do you have something to look for me?" ”

Second Lady Shen smiled and nodded: "I want to ask you something." ”

Lin Ruan looked at her beaming appearance, and guessed what was going on, but she didn't show it at all, "What does the second aunt want to inquire?" ”

Second Madam Shen pulled her to sit down on the chair next to her, "I want to ask you about the concubine of the Huaiyang prefect's family, I heard that you are very close to Mrs. He and Miss He, so I want to ask you about Miss He." ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "Second aunt has taken a fancy to Yuyan? ”

Second Lady Shen smiled and nodded: "A few days ago, the He family returned to Beijing to report on work, and I saw that girl at the banquet, and I thought she was quite stable and dignified. But this marriage is a matter of your cousin's life, so I want to inquire more about the girl's character. ”

Lin Ruan replied very seriously: "Second aunt, although the relationship between me and Yuyan is not very deep, it is also very good. She is a well-behaved girl, gentle and assertive, and treats people very well with Mrs. He's true heritage, and she is also a good hand in the housekeeper director, and the people who ask for marriage are about to break the threshold of the He family. ”

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Second Lady Shen and whispered: "The third prince used to care about her at the beginning, but she was very smart and made excuses to block back, and she was a girl with a lot of knowledge and vision. ”

After hearing this, Second Lady Shen couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Lin Ruan thought that Mrs. He had knocked on the side of her here before, and knew that if there was no accident in this family business, she didn't run away, so she smiled and said:

"Second aunt, my cousin's temperament is a little out-of-the-box, and he is sincere, if he can decide on the family affairs of the He family, the second aunt will save a lot of thought in the future. However, since the second aunt has this thought, it is better to ask someone to go to He's house earlier. Yuyan has a good family background, she is beautiful, and she has an idea, and now that she has returned to Beijing, I don't know how many people have the same idea as you. ”

Of course, Second Mrs. Shen knew that she had also inquired in the past few days, and it was said that the matchmaker who came to the door of the He family had not been interrupted these days.

It's just that King Shen Jun and Princess Shen will agree?

Second Madam Shen turned her head and glanced at Princess Shen.

Princess Shen snorted unhappily: "See what I do?" That's your son wants to marry a wife, you don't have an idea, and you still expect me, an old woman, to fail? ”

As soon as Second Mrs. Shen heard this, her eyes immediately lit up, "Mother, then I'll go to the matchmaker and go to He's house." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Princess Shen to agree, and left in a hurry.

Princess Shen smiled and arranged: "Look, this is a person who is going to be a mother-in-law, and he is still so unstable!" ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the Tong family: "Ting Xuan's family affairs should also be opened, I think Miaoxin's girl is quite good." ”

Tong smiled: "I also like that girl, and I want to kiss and kiss, but I have to ask the girl what she means." ”

Lin Ruan couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, Tong Miaoxin and Shen Tingxuan were serious cousins. The ancients did not have the concept that they could not marry within five suits, and they especially liked the operation of kissing and kissing.

But Lin Ruan couldn't say anything, how could it be so easy to change the concept of the ancients.

Lin Ruan stayed at Shen's house until it was dark, and then got up and went back to his house.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Lin Ruan was startled by the gifts piled up in the side hall, "Why are there so many?" How many houses are here? ”

In the morning, the palace man who was assigned to Lin Ruan's side as a personal grandmother said: "The officials and relatives of the third grade and above in Kyoto are here. ”

Lin Ruan was glad in his heart, fortunately he slipped away in time, otherwise he was afraid that his mouth would have to wear out today.

The palace is surnamed Xin, known as Mama Xin, and was formerly the deputy steward of Shangyi Division. She is quite prestigious in the palace and has personally instructed several princesses in etiquette. Every time it comes to the draft, she will also be responsible for teaching those show girls, so she is very respected.

Today, Lin Ruan went to Shen's house early, leaving a group of guests waiting in the mansion, which was very inappropriate in Mama Xin's opinion, so she said with a straight face: "Princess, the slave thinks that what you did today is very inappropriate. It is rude for so many women to come to visit you and congratulate you, and you to avoid them and leave so many people aside. ”

As soon as the green calyx heard this, she immediately wanted to refute it.

Lin Ruan pulled her, signaled her not to speak, turned her head and explained to Mama Xin with a light smile: "Today I made an appointment with my grandmother, and those who came to congratulate me, I didn't know in advance, I think it's more rude." ”

Mama Xin was stunned, she only came to the house today, and many things were not clear, knowing that what she just said was not appropriate, she immediately apologized: "The princess forgives her sins, the slave maid doesn't know the reason, please punish the princess." ”

Lin Ruan smiled faintly: "Mama is polite, Mama is also for my good, I understand." It's been hard work today, so go down and rest first. ”

Mama Xin glanced at Lin Ruan, saw that she didn't have any special expression on her face, and didn't know what she was thinking, so she blessed her body and retreated.

As soon as she left, the green calyx was not happy: "Princess, this grandmother is a little kicking her nose in the face!" It's just a grandmother, and she dares to preach to the princess! Besides, those who came to visit today didn't greet the princess in advance. You are a princess, who you want to see and who you don't want to meet, can you still decide for yourself? ”

Lin Ruan was also a little dissatisfied with Mama Xin, but in the end she was sent by the palace, and it was unpleasant on the first day, which was equivalent to slapping the emperor in the face.

So Lin Ruan said to Lu Calyx solemnly: "Whatever Mama Xin says in the future, you just listen, if she is not right, I will refute it." But don't quarrel with her, or you will be the one who suffers. ”
