Chapter 16: The Ridiculous Inkstone

Shen Mingzhen was staring at Aunt Zhu all the time.

She had just freshened up, and then she heard the little maid in Aunt Zhu's yard say that Aunt Zhu came back very late today.

Shen Mingzhen didn't care.

She knew what was going on.

Aunt Zhu was afraid that she had been pulling with her eldest cousin in the hotel all day, so she came back very late.

She had lunch and went to Mrs. Sun's to talk for a while.

Mrs. Sun is making tiger head shoes for her two unborn children, and the tiger head has been ready, leaving only two eyes that have not yet been made.

Shen Mingzhen walked over, snatched the needle and thread from her mother's hand, and pushed her to the yard: "Mother's resting well now is the main thing, don't hurt your eyes."

I asked someone to send some flowers, and my mother went to see if they looked good. “

Mrs. Sun smiled: "It's just that you are clever." ”

The two of them talked and laughed for a while, and the old lady came.

Mrs. Sun and Shen Mingzhen glanced at each other.

Old Madam Shen didn't take the initiative to come to their yard.

Old Madam Shen ran out of money in her hand, so she took out some of the things that should be noted by pregnant women that she had copied, compiled them into a booklet, and sent them to Mrs. Sun.

She leaned on crutches and spoke: "Sun, it is not easy for you, now that you are pregnant with a child for our Shen family, I am very grateful to my wife."

I couldn't do anything, so I hand-copied a maternity care booklet and sent it to you. “

It's a good intention

Shen Mingzhen moved a stool for Old Madam Shen.

"Grandmother, sit down."

Old Madam Shen sat down and looked at Mrs. Sun's bulging belly: "If you give birth to a sister-in-law to my Shen family, when you are out of confinement, I will ask your husband to apply for a decree for you." ”

She drank a cup of tea: "Mingzhen too, in the end, Miss Everyone, what are you doing guarding your mother and the shop all day long."

Ming'er's county lady held a flower-viewing party. said that it was to enjoy the flowers, but in fact, I wanted to choose a few famous ladies to be the side concubines of His Royal Highness the Prince.

The lintel of my Shen family is not low, and Mingzhen is long and delicate, so let's try it.

If you can't get into the eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince, it's good to see the world. “

Shen Mingzhen responded.

In order to prevent Aunt Zhu from framing her mother again, Shen Mingzhen asked Aunt Zhu to bring a maid to give her enough crotons in the tea.

Aunt Zhu is sad about her eldest cousin, where can she take care of tea.

I drank it dry in one go.

Shen Mingzhen didn't want to be a princess, so she dressed very plainly.

She wore a pale cyan horse-faced skirt, a pink jacket on her upper body, and only two hairpins.

Crystal tassel earrings are worn on the ears.

It's not eye-catching, but it's not decent.

She said goodbye to her mother and went to the county lord's mansion.

The county lord's mother's flower-viewing party came to a lot of female dependents, all of whom showed off their flowers.

Shen Mingzhen sat in an inconspicuous corner and listened to their conversation.

I really couldn't fit in, so I took Shiso to blow the wind outside.

Outside was a pond, and the wind blew gently, making circles of rippling water on the surface of the lake.

Shen Mingzhen sat quietly, emptying herself.

It was a good feeling, she hadn't felt it in a long time.

She felt the oncoming wind and smiled unconsciously.

The snow-white face with a shallow smile is particularly good-looking.

Shen Mingzhen and Zi Su said this, unaware that someone was watching her behind them.

The crown prince was not used to such an occasion with such a large number of female dependents.

He was only sixteen years old, and he didn't want to marry a wife and have children too early, so he came out to blow the wind.

When I walked to the pond of the county lord's house, I saw the bright face of the girl.

She smiled, as if she had collected all the sunshine between heaven and earth on herself.

The dress is also fresh.

This dress is unnoticeable at first glance, but if you look closely, you can feel how elegant and tranquil it is.

The girl didn't know what to say to the maid next to her.

The sound is crisp and sweet, like a warbler song.

The prince stepped forward unconsciously.

"What are you talking about?"

"Are you...... Childe who came to the banquet? I don't know which young master it is? ”

The prince casually made up an excuse: "Xiaosheng is from other places, and his father is a minor official of the sixth grade, so it is not worth mentioning." ”

Shen Mingzhen smiled.

The young man in front of her has big ears, bright eyes, and is very elegant when walking, which makes her feel very comfortable when she wants to be

"Don't be presumptuous, it's not important whether the official is big or small, it's the important thing to live.

When I look at the face of my son, I am obviously a blessed person, and the days ahead will definitely be prosperous and full of good luck. “

The prince pursed his lips.

"Lend you good words.

Where is Miss? “

"The Shen family in the capital."

It turned out to be the Shen family.

The Shen family is a fourth-grade official, and Miss Shen can come here, presumably she is the daughter of the Shen family. With such an identity, being your own side concubine is also compatible.

The prince has a score in his heart.

The county lord's cousin and the queen mother always urge themselves to find a daughter-in-law, no, isn't there a good candidate right now.

The flowers are beautiful and the mouth is sweet.

He said hello to Miss Shen and walked to the county lord's courtyard.

The county lord is drinking tea.

The fifth lady of the prime minister's family stood beside the county lord and talked to her.

The county lord patted the fifth lady: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never had a caring person around him, and the Queen Mother and I are very sorry." It would be nice if you could be favored by the prince. ”

Miss Five bowed her head and said yes. The prince saw it in his eyes, didn't say anything, and looked at the fifth young lady coldly. Medium-looking, medium-build...... I really don't know what the county lord's cousin likes about her. Fancy her prime minister's father? He is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the future Son of Heaven, and he must listen to his heart when marrying a daughter-in-law. What kind of prime minister's daughter, he is not rare. The prince felt that he still preferred the eldest lady of the Shen family who he had just met. didn't ignore him because of his father's humble status, but encouraged him very enthusiastically. Such a woman is worthy of being his side concubine.

The prince pulled the county lord's sleeve: "Cousin, you help me tell the queen mother, I have taken a fancy to a woman and begged her to fulfill it." ”

The county lord's eyes lit up, and the thousand-year-old ice finally changed his mind? I don't know which daughter he has a crush on, as long as the lintel is not very low, it doesn't hurt to marry.
