On the day of Xiao's birthday banquet, Shen Ninghua came to Songtao Garden early in the morning. Xiao Shi wore a gold silk pullover with eight treasure patterns, twelve Luo skirts embroidered with gold on the lower body, and a forehead inlaid with emerald gemstones on his head, full of smiles and harmony.

"Grandmother is very happy today, and I wish my grandmother a long and healthy life."

Xiao smiled and asked Shen Ninghua to be polite: "You kid is a thorough courtesy, I am your grandmother, and I don't have to bow like this every day in the future." Your second aunt has been talking to you for a while, come and sit down. ”

Shen Ninghua naturally wouldn't take Xiao's words seriously, if she didn't take it seriously for a day, tomorrow the Shen Mansion would be full of rumors that she didn't know how to be rude: "I met my aunt, I thought I came early, but I didn't expect my aunt to be earlier than me." ”

Su Shi pulled her over and sat down: "I was troubled by Xuanhua's kid early in the morning. In the end, only his grandfather could cure him. I don't listen to what this says. ”

Looking at Su's helpless but loving eyes, Shen Ninghua's heart moved slightly, if her mother was still alive, she must have looked at herself like this, and couldn't help but speak: "Brother Xuanhua is the most sensible, where do you need your aunt to worry more, you can just wait for happiness with peace of mind." ”

Su Shi tapped her forehead: "You ghostly girl, this mouth is ingenious, but I don't have any gifts for you here, if you have any sweet words, say to the old lady, she is a big birthday star today, it's okay to reward you with a birthday peach." ”

Xiao Shi looked at their appearance with a smile on his face, and Su's words were just right to praise himself, how could she make her unhappy: "You two, don't worry, Shou Tao is indispensable to you." ”

Shen Ninghua bent her eyes, glanced at Su Shi, got up and saluted Xiao Shi together, "Then thank you grandmother (mother)." ”

Xue Zhu came over with tea, and a few people drank tea with a smile, and Zhao led Shen Linghan to walk in quickly.

A hint of displeasure flashed in Xiao's eyes, knowing that today was her birthday, and these two people came so late, they clearly didn't take her seriously.

After the two saluted, Xiao Shi drank two sips of tea before he opened his mouth to call them up, raised his eyes to Zhao and said, "It seems that there are a lot of people in the front yard, and you have been busy until now." ”

Zhao's face stiffened: "I didn't worry about the layout of the front hall before leaving, and I carefully checked it little by little, and I came a little late, and I asked my mother not to blame." ”

Xiao sneered in his heart, Zhao likes to show his face in front of people, how could she miss such a good opportunity today. However, she didn't want to continue to pursue and delay the birthday banquet: "You are attentive, when the Xia family was still there, it was also so carefully organized my birthday banquet, and it has been more than ten years." By the way, after the birthday banquet, you should carefully sort out Xia's dowry and hand it over to Ning Hua, this girl is filial, thinking about her biological mother all day long, and I, as a grandmother, can't refute her kindness. ”

"That's what the old lady said." Zhao Shi lowered his head and responded, his eyes were full of gloom, but his face was not shown at all, "Ning Hua, after the birthday banquet, you can go to your mother's yard to have a look, the things inside are all well preserved, and I have people clean them almost." ”

"Yes, thank you, Mother." Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, her mind turned quickly, the Zhao family had scattered her biological mother's things so much, it was definitely impossible to take them back now, and although the tone of her words just now was resentful, there was no reluctance, as if she was sure that she would not find out that the dowry had been passed. Why was she so sure she couldn't see a problem?

Xiao nodded and got up and walked out. Shen Linghan originally wanted to follow her, but was stopped by Xiao: "Linghan, you just came back, you must be tired, let's let your sister support me." ”

Shen Linghan paused suddenly, grandmother is trying to lift Shen Ninghua?

Because the Xiao family has the identity of a good life, the identity of the person who came to celebrate his birthday this time is naturally not bad. The scene was completely incomparable to Shen Linghan's previous party. It can be said that this time it was Shen Ninghua who officially appeared in front of everyone. Xiao asked her to hold on, just to give her face and let people know that the eldest lady of the Shen family is back!

Thinking about the joints, Shen Linghan's face turned white.

Shen Ninghua didn't care about her emotions, stepped forward to hold Xiao's arm, and accompanied her to the front yard with a smile.

The sound of silk and bamboo in the front yard rose, and the ladies of the families gathered together in a lively atmosphere. As soon as Xiao came, the congratulatory voice suddenly rang out.

Shen Ninghua took two steps back at the right time and played the role of a foil.

The ladies below had already noticed her, after all, her appearance was too good, and it was difficult not to be noticed. Seeing her standing in place with her head bowed slightly, her posture was elegant, her expression was calm, and she did not have the slightest uneasiness and suddenness in front of so many people, looking like a young lady of the family, everyone couldn't help but feel a little more good in their hearts.

"Anyone can accept the gift today, but my old lady must accept it."

Hearing a familiar voice, Shen Ninghua raised his head, it was Shaw Brothers.

Xiao smiled: "Oh? Why is that? ”

Shao Shi smiled and nodded at Shen Ninghua: "Old lady, the child in my belly can be saved thanks to Ninghua." Such a flowery and sensible girl must have been trained by you, but I don't want to thank you. ”

Xiao smiled happily: "Okay, good, today I will be stained with the light of Ninghua." ”

The expressions of the ladies below moved, they all knew that the Shaw family had not been pregnant for many years, and this time they heard that she was suddenly pregnant, and they had also vaguely inquired about what the prescription was, but they didn't expect it to be Shen Ninghua's credit. It seems that they want to find an opportunity to contact Shen Ninghua, if they can also get pregnant, they don't care no matter how much they give thanks.

The Shaw Brothers smiled at Shen Ninghua and winked while people were not paying attention. Shen Ninghua was quite helpless in her heart, she knew that the kindness of the Shaw Brothers was nothing more than to let her smoothly integrate into the circle of nobles in Kyoto, after all, whether she had children or not, who didn't want to have two more children? Although she didn't need to use this method at all, she also thanked Shaw Brothers for her kindness.

A few people were talking lively, when they suddenly heard the noise of the male guests outside suddenly increase. Zhao's heart was overjoyed, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the door.

Shen Ninghua knew that this was Shen Xuanye.

The crystal curtain at the door was opened by a white jade-like hand, and a young man wearing a moon-white plain robe stepped in. His skin is like white jade, his face is like frost, and his every move has a unique cold charm. It seems to be an immortal who has fallen into the world, leaving only a sigh in people's hearts.

"My grandson has seen my grandmother, and I wish my mother, Songhe, a long life and good health."

Xiao Shi was stunned for a moment, reacted suddenly, and asked excitedly, "Are you...... Xuan Ye? ”

Shen Xuanye raised his head and showed a warm velvet smile like melting ice and snow: "It's my grandson." The grandson is not filial, and he finally came back after a long time and was able to salute in front of his grandmother. ”

Xiao got up and personally bent down to help him up: "My grandson, come and let grandmother see." How can I blame, it's good for you to come back. ”

Shen Xuanye showed a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he held Xiao's arm close to her and let her look at it.

Shen Ninghua looked at it with a smile on the side, her heart full of mockery. Shen Xuanye looks like an immortal on the outside, but he is extremely cruel and cold on the inside. In his eyes, people are divided into only two categories, one is useful and the other is damned.

Useful nature should live to be sent and used by him, and those who cannot be used by him should naturally not live.

When I first saw this younger brother, I was shocked for a while, but later, he became Baili Jinze's strategist, but he used her completely. If he hadn't made a suggestion, Baili Jinze would not have taken away the power in her hands so quickly and step by step, leaving her isolated in the end.

Moreover, when she was dying, the corpse water in the hands of the eunuch ...... It was impossible for Shen Linghan to get that kind of vicious medicine in the court, and the only way was for him to ...... Shen Xuanye!

Shen Xuanye and Xiao Shi finished sighing, and turned their heads to look at Shen Ninghua: "This is the eldest sister, it's really good to hear that the eldest sister's illness has been cured, if it weren't for the fact that the old doctor who treated the eldest sister has passed away, the younger brother will definitely come to the door to thank him in person." He noticed Shen Ninghua as soon as he entered the door, and he also observed carefully in secret for a long time, but he couldn't see anything from her face.

"Thank you, you have a heart." Shen Ninghua also responded with a smile.

"This is what I should do, I can't thank my eldest sister, not to mention that my sister must have suffered a lot for a year outside. I studied with my master outside, so I naturally knew the difficulties. This is the pill I asked my master to configure before leaving, it is the most effective for recuperating the body, so my sister will accept it. ”

If Shen Xuanye directly hinted that she was afraid that her innocence would be damaged if she was away for too long, she could still find a reason to refute it, but he immediately sent a gift, if she opened her mouth to explain at this time, it would only make people feel unreasonable and even want to cover up.

really deserves to be Shen Xuanye, much smarter than Shen Linghan.

Shen Ninghua said with deep meaning: "Thank you, Brother Xuanye." ”

Shen Xuanye didn't seem to understand at all: "The eldest sister is too polite." ”

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince has arrived! His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince has arrived! ”

A loud announcement sounded in the front yard. Xiao's face turned into a flower with a smile, and the two princes actually came over! No matter where these two came from, they all gave her enough face.

Baili Jinchuan and Baili Jinze entered the door, followed by Chu Junyi, who was holding a folding fan and looking leisurely. Xiao led everyone to greet the two.

Chu Junyi hooked the corners of his lips at Shen Ninghua, and opened the folding fan with a brush, and a picture of the rising of the country and mountains on the fan appeared on the paper, and a red sun was rising.

Shen Dong brought the male guests from the front yard into the door, and everyone entered the table after a greeting.

Chu Junyi didn't know when he came to Shen Ninghua's side and whispered: "You caught three big fish with one bait this time, but you have to prepare a net bag and don't let any of them run away." ”

Shen Ninghua sneered: "Thank you Gongzi Chu for reminding me." ”
