Chapter 661: Finding Fault
Duchess Lin Guo was a person who looked extremely dignified, and after stepping forward to say hello to Wei Wan, she set her eyes on Shen Junjiu and the others.
"Who are these two?"
Didn't I hear that there is such an old girl in Xian'an Hou Mansion?
Wei Wan smiled and said, "You didn't go to the palace banquet last time, so you haven't seen it." ”
"She is Shen Junjiu, the third girl of the Shen family, the one who is married to the King of the North, and this is Junjiu's sister, Shen Xinji."
"They also live on Feng'an Street, and it just so happened that when I came to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, I knew that they also received the post, so I simply came over on the same road."
After Wei Wan finished speaking, he said to Shen Jun Jiuren,
"Ah Jiu, Ah Jiu, this is the Duchess of Lin Guo."
Shen Junjiu and Shen Xinzhen greeted each other: "I've seen Madame." ”
Although the Duke of Lin Guo's Mansion is noble, Shen Junjiu is the princess of the North, the prince and princess of the Eight Classics, and none of the Duchess of Lin Guo and those people behind her dare to accept the gift of the future princess of the North.
They hurriedly got out of the way, and Duchess Lin Guo also squeezed out a smile on her face, and stepped forward to help Shen Junjiu.
"This can't be helped, you are the princess of the north, how can you greet us, isn't this tormenting us?"
Shen Junjiu's cheeks were slightly red, revealing a little shyness just right, "I haven't married the prince yet, and I can't bear the word princess, besides, I have heard of the famous name of the old Lin Guogong on the battlefield, and I admire it very much." ”
"I was invited to celebrate the birthday of the old lady today, Jun Jiu only felt honored, and my sister and I rarely participated in banquets in various prefectures before, and we didn't know much about social exchanges between Beijing and China, if there is any rudeness, I hope that Mrs. will forgive me."
Duchess Lin Guo listened to Shen Junjiu's words, and the smile on her face became more sincere.
There is no one in this world who doesn't like to hear people say good things about themselves, and everyone loves the sedan chair, not to mention that it is the princess of the Northern Mansion who compliments them like this.
The Duke of Lin and the North Prince's Mansion were already on good terms, and the Duchess of Lin also knew that the King of the North valued this princess.
Seeing that Shen Junjiu did not put on the shelf of the princess, but was humble and polite, and he was also a moderate person, Duchess Lin Guo didn't mind being friendly with her, so she smiled and took her hand and said affectionately:
"You just hurt me by talking like this, you can come to congratulate my mother on her birthday has already made my Lin Guogong Mansion shine, and you and Miss Shen Er will have to stay for a while later, so that we can do our best to be landlords."
Duchess Lin Guo personally took Wei Wan and Shen Junjiu into the mansion, and when she led them to see Mrs. Lin, everyone looked at the princess of the north, and their eyes were either looking, or disdainful, or envious and jealous, and they were inconsistent.
It's just that Shen Junjiu bathed in those eyes but didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and she naturally took Shen Xinzhen to meet the amiable old lady with a natural expression, and then asked someone to give her birthday gift.
"My sister and I heard that the old lady was kind to the Buddha, so we chose a statue of Guanyin, a pair of Guanyin fan as a birthday gift, and I hope the old lady will not dislike it."
Old Madam Lin smiled kindly: "Miss Shen San is polite, I am already very happy that you can come, this congratulatory gift or something is just a vulgar thing." ”
As she spoke, she waved her hand to let the subordinates on the side step forward, and wanted to retreat after receiving the birthday gift.
At this moment, someone suddenly spoke.
"Wait."
A middle-aged woman in a lake blue dress smiled and spoke:
"Old lady, this is a birthday gift from the future princess of the north, the child of the king of the north has always respected the old princess, and the princess of the country is also a friend of the year, the princess of the north will definitely uphold the heart of the king of the north, and the birthday gift must be extraordinary."
"Why don't you take advantage of the big guys to open it and let us have a look?"
