After returning home, Shang Jiaojiao did a lot of duty under Lin Ke's strict preaching, and she was also cautious in her work, and her words were even more leaky, so that no one could find a flaw. When it's time to say goodbye, please be safe, do things when you should do things, be careful not to make mistakes.

Shang Yuhong was very pleased, and rewarded her with a lot of things, although the things were good, Shang Jiaojiao didn't take it to heart, she had never seen other people's faces in the past few years under Xiao Ke's care, and she was not too interested in those gold and silver jewelry treasures.

The eldest lady's daughter is a concubine in the harem, and this one thing alone is enough for her to worry about every day, and she has no time to manage the backyard.

Although the prince is over 30 years old, he has already had a concubine and a concubine, but it does not affect the merchant's gold, nominally speaking, it is second only to the concubine of the side concubine, and this marriage is only a political marriage.

After returning home, I obviously felt that the second mother-in-law, Li, that is, Shang Rongrong's biological mother, was a little arrogant, and her daughter was about to go to the prince's side as a concubine。

Lin Ke also felt the quiet change in the atmosphere of the Shang Mansion, but seeing Shang Rongrong's expression, his attitude was still very low, of course, who would want to marry a man twice as big as himself. Shang Rongrong is a talented woman who knows words at the age of one, memorizes poems at the age of three, reads hundreds of books at the age of five, and her appearance is even more immortal, she has always been a leader among her peers, praised by major families, she has been thinking about someone else, this time the holy decree has been issued, it is destined by God, how can you not be depressed and sad.

Shang Jiaojiao and Lin Ke once heard Shang Rongrong sighing to herself over there when they were passing by the small lake pavilion in the backyard, Shang Jiaojiao really couldn't bow her head and bypass it, so she had to rush forward and give her sister a blessing.

Shang Rongrong raised her eyes and saw that it was her third sister, although her face was full of sorrow, she also changed her face and let Shang Jiaojiao sit opposite her, and complained bitterly: "My sister is still young, unlike my sister who is about to get married, girls are going to grow up and marry after all, and the orders of their parents cannot be violated. ”

Fourteen-year-old Shang Jiaojiao didn't listen to it at all, staring at the sister who was about to get married ignorantly with question marks in her eyes, thinking that she should eat fish at night, and the steamed fish made by Wang's mother tasted good. Lin Ke is more worried, it seems that this second lady is a sweetheart, and the political marriage sacrificed her life's happiness, but she can't do anything about it, so if you can't meddle in it, then continue the plot.

Back at Yunmeng Pavilion, Lin Ke explained to Shang Jiaojiao what Shang Rongrong meant during the day. Shang Jiaojiao nodded frequently and replied: "No wonder I think the second sister is weird, then if she doesn't want to marry, tell her father, find the one who wants to marry." ”

Looking at the indifferent Shang Jiaojiao, Lin Ke couldn't help but slap her, not to mention the marriage event, not to mention this kind of political marriage, you don't want to marry, it's over? I really doubt that in the future, if his father wants to marry her politically, what will she do? Can I help her turn the tide.

In the past few days, someone has opened a banquet in the merchant, where the eunuchs always hold a banquet for various reasons in order to win over the relationship, and the daughter of the merchant house wants to get married, which is the best banquet name.

Shang Yuhong calculated that his third daughter should also meet the world and introduce it to the circle of princes and grandchildren and celebrities in the capital, and informed Yunmengge early to dress up the third lady to come out to meet guests, and at the same time asked the eldest lady to take Jiaojiao to mention more in the circle of noblewomen.

Shang Rongrong followed the eldest lady to greet the dignitaries and nobles who greeted each other, these colorful people covered in gold and jade jade dazzled Shang Jiaojiao's eyes, in the past, she would not be allowed to participate in the large banquets when she was in the house, but today she opened her eyes, Lin Ke couldn't help but sigh that it was really extravagant!

The protagonist of the banquet, Shang Rongrong, will naturally not be remembered anymore, but Shang Jiaojiao is still a little girl who has no marriage match, and the fourteen-year-old Shang Jiaojiao has already shown the signs of beauty, and no matter what her body shape and appearance are, she will not be wrong. Besides, although she is only a concubine, it depends on whose concubine, the concubine of the prime minister's family is much more noble than the concubine of an ordinary official eunuch, and she is also the niece of a scholar of Han University.

Anyone who moved his mind and wanted to cling to it was said by the eldest lady that she was still young, and she had to wait for the future to decide on her temperament, and then she refused to go back. How can anyone in the officialdom be stupid enough to know that this is to sell for a long time, so no one mentions it again.

Lin Ke accompanied Shang Jiaojiao for a long time and felt very bored, most of the people were running to Shang Rongrong and the old man to shoot the horse, a fourteen-year-old concubine after the freshness of no one cared, but also to a good leisure, the two took the maids and maids to the backyard, but in the courtyard met Li's son Shang Xingze, this Shang Xingze is also nineteen years old this year, the second in the merchant boys, the eldest is the eldest lady's son has already started a family Shang Xingguang, and Shang Xingze just got engaged a few days ago is the daughter of a four-grade official, and his concubine has obtained a concubine is also beautifulAt this time, he was not alone, but he was also followed by a beautiful man with a green bamboo robe embroidered with gold thread and rime flowing clouds, covered with silver fox fur outside, and his black hair tied up with a jade crown.

At this time, they met head-on, and they couldn't avoid it, so Shang Jiaojiao had no choice but to step forward and bless, pulling the corners of her mouth and whispering, "My sister has seen the second brother." ”

Shang Xingze praised the man next to him with interest: "Look at this is my third sister, and she is still a child." Then someone said to Shang Jiaojiao: "This is His Royal Highness the Third Prince, my sister can't be out of courtesy" is obviously a joke, which mobilizes the atmosphere here.

Shang Jiaojiao smiled politely, and solemnly saluted the third prince: "The little girl has seen the third prince." Lin Ke, who was standing behind Jiaojiao, saluted with her, and carefully observed the third prince, the message sent by his agent a long time ago, this third prince is called Liang Yuyuheng, and he is only eighteen years old this year, and he is the son of Concubine Ruan of the West Palace, Concubine Ruan was originally a famous family, but later the family declined, this third prince obviously has no powerful big backer, but he just has a false title of prince, and there is no official concubine yet.

The third prince smiled kindly, showing that he was polite and approachable, and replied with a smile: "Your sister is really a second person, well-behaved and sensible, I like it." After speaking, he took out the jade pendant in the shape of a pig, which was pendant from his arms, and was the size of an egg, looking at the soft light emitted by the transparent jade body, he knew that it must be a good jade, and then looked at the workmanship, crystal clear, and the most important thing was that the jade pig was simple, round and jade, and it was very cute.

To accept the things sent by the prince or not? Shang Jiaojiao was stunned and didn't know what to do next.

Shang Xingze played a round game, laughed dryly and said: "Since it was rewarded by the third prince, you can accept it sister." ”

Shang Jiaojiao couldn't help but refute the prince's face, made a gesture of thanks, took the little jade pig, and hurriedly said that she was a little unwell and wanted to go back, and left in a hurry with Lin Ke and others after saying goodbye.
