Chapter 9 Coming from the Palace
The next morning, the sun was shining.
After Shen Jiayin got up early to exercise, she was called to Mrs. Shen's yard to have breakfast together.
"Miss, the old lady hasn't been so happy for a long time."
Mama Feng said happily beside her while serving Mrs. Shen for dinner.
Old Madam Shen is in a good mood, and the mood of these people will also be good.
After Shen Jiayin heard Mama Feng's words, she tilted her head, looked at Old Madam Shen with a smile and said:
"That's because I'm my grandmother's pistachio, and when I came back, my grandmother was very happy~"
"Isn't that right, grandmother?"
"Yes, yes, you are your grandmother's pistachio, your grandmother's intimate little padded jacket."
Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Jiayin helplessly, and nodded in response.
I don't know why, among so many grandchildren, Yin'er will feel happy to be spoiled by herself.
"That's that, that's."
Shen Jiayin tilted her head proudly and replied wantonly.
Seeing Shen Jiayin like this, Mrs. Shen smiled and put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand.
Mama Feng handed over the towel to wipe her mouth in a timely manner, and she looked at Shen Jiayin and said:
"The eldest lady is here, the old lady has eaten more today, and the eldest lady will come more in the future."
"Okay, I'll come over every day to have breakfast with my grandmother."
Shen Jiayin frowned and looked at Old Madam Shen and said, looking like a ghost horse.
"You kid."
When Mrs. Shen saw Shen Jiayin's appearance, she laughed heartily, and after laughing, she didn't forget to reproach a little:
"You're already a big girl, you can't be as careless as before."
After hearing Mrs. Shen's words, Shen Jiayin immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, hugged Mrs. Shen's arm and said:
"No matter when, I'm my grandmother's favorite granddaughter~"
"Hehehe~~"
Old Madam Shen was coaxed by Shen Jiayin to laugh constantly, and her whole spirit seemed to be much better.
"You kid, why do you always spoil your grandmother."
As soon as Mrs. Shen Lin came over, she saw that her daughter was hanging on Mrs. Shen's body, so she reproached with some amusement.
Because Old Madam Shen is old, no one in the mansion will treat Old Madam Shen like this, only her own favored daughter would be so bold.
"Grandmother likes me to be coquettish, she likes me like this!"
Shen Jiayin leaned on Old Madam Shen's arms and looked at her mother and answered.
However, after Shen Jiayin finished speaking, she also let go of the hand holding Old Madam Shen and sat up upright.
It's okay to mess around by yourself, but if you keep messing around, Old Madam Shen is old after all, and she won't be able to stand it.
"No problem, no problem."
Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Jiayin lovingly and said.
"The daughter-in-law asked how her mother was doing."
Lin walked up to Old Madam Shen and bowed to Old Madam Shen.
Although she is the Duchess of the State and is in charge of the middle feed of the Guogong Mansion, she still insists on coming to Mrs. Shen's courtyard every day to ask for peace, and Mrs. Shen has always loved her as a daughter-in-law.
"Okay, sit down."
Old Madam Shen nodded and pointed to the position next to her.
Lin responded and sat down on the side.
Mama Feng saw that Old Madam Shen and Shen Jiayin were full and had already put down their chopsticks, so she beckoned the maid to remove all the things.
The three of them sat in the main hall, and the atmosphere was also very harmonious, without the slightest sense of distance that they hadn't seen for many years.
"Mother, daughter-in-law thinks, take Yin'er to buy a good outfit today."
Seeing that everything had been withdrawn, Lin looked at Old Madam Shen and talked about his plans.
"Early this morning, the queen sent someone to send a post, saying that a spring banquet will be held in the palace in three days, and we will bring Yin'er with us."
Spring banquets are not uncommon for them, this is generally just to find a random reason in the palace, summon those officials and relatives into the palace to meet and chat, and by the way, look at those men and women of the right age, and order a mandarin duck score or something.
But after listening to Lin's words, Old Madam Shen thought for a moment and asked:
"The queen only sent a post over there, didn't she say anything else?"
Lin shook her head, she knew what the old lady wanted to ask, and she was also curious.
"That's weird."
The old lady muttered.
After Mama Feng heard the old lady's words, she immediately sent the maid who was waiting on the side back.
"Mother, it stands to reason that the queen has already given the hairpin to Yin'er, and this matter is already known to everyone, so what was sent today should have a holy decree."
Lin lowered his voice and said with some concern
"Will there be any changes in this matter?"
Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Jiayin and asked with some confusion
"Yin'er, you entered the palace yesterday, but something else happened?"
Although this matter was strange, Old Madam Shen seemed a little calmer than the Lin family, and on her face, there was no trace of worry, but the Lin family, which was visible to the naked eye.
Shen Jiayin looked at Old Madam Shen and shook her head, and responded:
"When I met the queen yesterday, everything was normal and smooth."
"But when I was out of the palace, I met the prince, and the prince probably waited for me there on purpose."
"Could it be that the prince already belongs to Zuo Cheng's daughter, so it was delayed?"
Lin said with a frown.
Ever since she knew that Yin'er had to marry the crown prince, she had been worried, after all, she had almost lost this daughter three years ago, and she didn't want to play out these scenes again.
"Probably not, after all, whether it is the queen or the prince, or the family behind them, they should know which is more important."
Old Madam Shen said indifferently that it was absolutely impossible for the marriage matter to come from the will of the prince, so there must be other things happening.
"Grandmother, mother, why don't you wait for your father to come down to the court and ask your father if there is any news?"
Shen Jiayin saw that her mother and Mrs. Shen were worried about this matter, so she couldn't help but remind that if they come, they will be safe, they will be here for a total of half a day, it is better to wait, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth.
"Yes."
Old Madam Shen nodded approvingly.
"In that case, then you should go shopping first and prepare for the spring feast in three days."
Old Madam Shen waved her hand at the two of them and continued:
"I'm tired, too."
"Okay, then the daughter-in-law went with Yin'er first."
Seeing this, the Lin clan stood up and bowed down to Old Madam Shen and said.
"Goodbye, grandmother."
Shen Jiayin also stood up and saluted Old Madam Shen.
"Well, go ahead."
Before the Lin family came to Old Madam Shen's courtyard, they had already prepared a carriage to take Shen Jiayin out shopping, so after leaving Old Madam Shen's courtyard, the two went straight to the gate of the Guogong Mansion.
Because Peony was slightly injured yesterday, although it was not in the way, Shen Jiayin still let Peony stay at home to rest, and only took Yanhong out.
"Yin'er, let's go and see the head noodles first, and when we are ready, we will take you to Qinyue Tower to eat delicious food."
On the carriage, Lin looked at Shen Jiayin very happily and said.
When her daughter came back, she was happier than anyone else, leaving her worries behind and being happy first.
"Qinyue Lou has a lot of delicious food, you have to taste it later!"
Shen Jiayin saw that her mother was as happy as a child, and her mood was also rendered happy.
Although I went to Qinyue Tower last night, I didn't eat anything.
"Okay, I'll try it all."
Shen Jiayin nodded happily.
"Ma'am, it's here."
The carriage stopped, and the coachman came.
Vanilla and Yanhong got out of the car first, followed by Shen Jiayin, and Mrs. Shen got out of the car last.
"Guest officer, please~"
Only then did a few people stand firm, and the second child of Yuyuanzhai immediately trotted over and greeted him.
In the capital, the ladies who came in carriages were either rich or expensive, and they served well, and it was not difficult to make money.
"A few guest officers, it's really a coincidence that you came, we have a lot of fresh styles today, all of which are the latest! You're going to have to pick and choose. “
Xiao Er said happily as he led them inside.
The specifications of Yuyuanzhai are not small, it is a very large and spacious lobby, and it is also equipped with a number of small booths, which is convenient for those ladies and ladies to choose and try on.
In addition, there is a large booth in the middle of the lobby, in which almost all the large and small head ornaments are placed, and there are special people waiting next to the booth to introduce these objects to everyone.
It wasn't too late for them to come out, but there were already a lot of people in Yuyuanzhai at this time.
Xiao Er took them to an empty booth, and then bent down with a smile, looked at Mrs. Shen and Shen Jiayin and asked:
"Madame, Mademoiselle."
"Do you want to see the new model first, or do you want to go to the booth first?"
Mrs. Shen, who sat down, looked around, and saw that there were many people on the other side of the booth, so she looked at Xiao Er and said:
"Let's take a look at all the new products first."
"Okay!"
Xiao Er responded happily, and then left neatly to get the new product.
"If it's like smoke, just choose this one."
A woman's voice came, and the woman's voice was unremarkable, but her tone was full of pride and flattery, and the combination of the two was indeed very novel.
Coupled with the smoke in her words, it attracted the attention of Shen Jiayin and Mrs. Shen.
"Mother, this set of faces is too high-profile for me."
Liu Ruyan's gentle voice also came, and she still took the route of a gentle lady and virtuous lady as always.
"Mother, choose this set, I think this set suits me more."
"It's too light, isn't it?"
The woman's voice seemed to be dissatisfied, but then it changed:
"It's okay to have this set, then listen to the smoke, and you want this set."
Although I don't know why Madame's words changed so quickly, if you listen carefully, they have already changed the subject.
"Yan'er, I've already arranged things, you can rest assured."
