Chapter 33: The Spring Feast

An incident that had happened in her previous life suddenly came to her mind.

Her eyes darkened, she bit her lip, and told the coachman to drive the car faster, and she would go home quickly.

In the main courtyard of the Shen Mansion, Mrs. Shen was worried about the marriage of her eldest son Shen Jingyan's eldest daughter Shen Jiaojiao.

Although Daqi is not like the previous dynasty boudoir girls who just got married, some of them set the marriage at the age of twelve or thirteen, and men are mostly married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but Shen Jingyan is eighteen this year, Shen Jiaojiao is fifteen this year, according to the rules of Daqi, women marry at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and men get married before the age of twenty, this is the mainstream of Daqi.

What's more, Shen Qiange's marriage has been decided, so the marriage of Shen Jingyan and Shen Jiaojiao is even more urgent.

If it is not decided first, what will Jiang Guifei or King Yan ask for one day, and the entire Shen Mansion will have to be busy making people laugh.

Mrs. Shen didn't sleep well for the past two days because of her troubles, and her gums were swollen.

Just as she was thinking about it, Mama Bai came in from the outer room with a smile.

Mrs. Shen looked up at Mama Bai, who had been with her for so many years, and rolled her eyes, "I'm worried, do you still have a master in your heart, but your face is full of joy." ”

Mama Bai walked to Mrs. Shen's side with a smile and gently beat her legs, "Madam, it's not the slave's selfish intentions, something good is really happening!"

"Oh, what's a good thing?" said Mrs. Shen in disbelief.

Mama Bai took out an invitation from her cuffs and presented it to Mrs. Shen with both hands, "Madam, you see, this was sent in by the chief steward of the outer courtyard just now, saying that the slave and maid must be handed over to you by hand." ”

Mrs. Shen took the gilded invitation from Mama Bai, and as soon as she opened it, her original expression was shocked, and then a big smile broke out on the corner of her mouth, and the depression between her eyebrows was swept away.

"That's a good thing! This is an invitation from the Eldest Princess's Mansion! ”

Mama Bai also laughed, "No, this invitation came in time, and it relieved Madame's worries!"

A son and a daughter in the family need to see each other at the right person, and they are worried about what to do, so the post was sent.

The specifications of the spring banquet hosted by the eldest prince can be imagined, and there will be many noble ladies and celebrities, and all the ladies will also bring their unmarried children, which is the most suitable time to see each other.

Some ladies will even privately agree on the marriage of their children directly at the banquet.

"It's not a few days, you go to the door of the proprietress of the Splendid Pavilion, it's about my son's marriage, this time I want to prepare well. ”

Fortunately, Jiang Guifei sent someone to send a lot of good things and silver, otherwise, with the current background of the Shen family, if you want to make Shen Jingyan and Shen Jiaojiao shine at the banquet, there is really no such cost.

Mama Bai got up with a smile, turned around and was about to go out to the Splendid Pavilion to ask the proprietress to come to the door, but before she left the inner room, Mama Bai suddenly paused and asked Mrs. Shen, "Madam, does the second lady want the slave to go in person?"

After all, the second lady has just moved out of the main courtyard and lived in the old lady, the lord and the lady seem to be lame with the second lady, if the lady goes in person, it may become more and more stiff, it is better to send someone from her lady's side, so Mama Bai asked like this.

Mrs. Shen, who was still smiling, suddenly pulled down her face when she heard Mama Bai say this, and her joy disappeared in an instant, "No need to go, I don't plan to take Qiange to the eldest princess's banquet this time." ”

Mama Bai let out an "ah", obviously not expecting Madame to make such a decision.

No matter what, the second lady is also born to Mrs. herself, and she is the real daughter of the Shen Mansion!

Moreover, the second lady also agreed to the marriage with King Yan and fought for the interests of the Shen Mansion...... How could Madame be so ruthless!

Even if the second lady is married, she can communicate more if she goes to this kind of banquet more, otherwise she will not have any connections, and it is good to marry into the palace alone.

Mama Bai wanted to persuade her, but she had followed Mrs. Shen for so many years, and she also knew her temper, once Madam decided, no matter how much others persuaded her, she would not change her mind, and she was a very stubborn person.

Mrs. Shen's sharp eyes swept over, "What, do you have an opinion?"

Mama Bai immediately said in panic: "No, no, the slave maid will go out to the Splendid Pavilion." ”

As soon as Mama Bai left, Mrs. Shen's face sank completely.

Since Shen Qiange moved to Ningshoutang, she stopped all the supplies given to Shen Qiange in the public school, and even deducted Shen Qiange's monthly silver.

is to let Shen Qiange bow to her and let Shen Qiange know the importance of her motherhood.

But a few days passed, but Shen Qiange didn't make a sound, she didn't come, and she didn't send a maid to plead with her, which made Mrs. Shen more and more unwilling and angry.

So this time the eldest princess's banquet, she won't take her to let her know the consequences of breaking away from her parents!

After Shen Qiange returned to Ningshoutang, he sent someone to inquire whether the main courtyard had received an invitation to the spring banquet of the eldest princess's mansion.

Liangchen hurriedly came in and told Mrs. Shen about the post she had received with a smile.

After speaking, he said with anticipation: "I heard that the eldest princess of Tianyuan will hold a banquet every year, and the people who are invited are all the nobles of the capital, and the banquet specifications are also the highest, I don't know what the banquet will be like at that time, miss, if you go, you must bring the slave maid and let the slave maid have a long experience." ”

The princess's mansion is to send invitations to the ladies of each house, and the specific people in the house are decided by the lady of the house, and there is no limit to the number of people.

Shen Qiange furrowed her eyebrows and smiled bitterly, after the previous life, she knew the Shen family very well, Mrs. Shen's character, if she was not convinced and listened to her in everything, how could she take her to the banquet in the eldest princess's mansion.

After Liangchen finished speaking, she found that the second lady's face was wrong, and she guessed in a low voice: "Madame won't take Miss with you, right?"

This is a grand banquet once a year, and all the magnates in the capital are proud to participate in the banquet of the eldest princess, but the second lady is the young lady of the house, how could the lady not bring the second lady to participate.

Shen Qiange didn't speak, but his calm eyes had already told everything.

Since she came back, she has never expected anything from Shen's father and Shen's mother.

Liangchen was a little unconvinced, Mrs. was a housewife and would not be so ignorant.

is destined to disappoint Liangchen, I heard that the main courtyard has found the proprietress of the Splendid Pavilion to come to the door to measure the size of the people attending the banquet at home and make new clothes.

The proprietress was gone, and no one came to Ningshoutang to call Shen Qiange.

It seems that Mrs. Shen didn't think about making new clothes for Shen Qiange at all, so naturally she didn't think about taking Shen Qiange to the banquet held by the eldest princess.
