After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

The eldest princess was in the room, looking at the sorted account books and the harvest records of the various farms under the name of the marquis's mansion, with a smile on her face.

These account books were sorted out by Su Jinhua and sent to her specifically for her to review.

Since Su Jinhua brought up the idea of ​​the medicine shop, the princess has also noticed that the income of the shop is not proportional to that of some manors, and she has become more and more fond of Su Jinhua. "Jinhua is a good candidate for a housekeeper. With a few more years of training, he will be able to take charge on his own."

"Your Highness is right, and the Crown Prince's wife manages things in an orderly manner. There has never been any mistake in these days." Yu Cui looked serious and approved of Su Jinhua in her heart.

The princess nodded, thinking of the three concubines who were recalled to the mansion, and she was a little curious, "What did they do after they came back?"

"Your Highness, after the three concubines paid their respects to you yesterday, they went to pay their respects to the Crown Prince's Consort. This morning, except for Concubine Shen, the other two went to the Buddhist temple to copy scriptures and chant Buddha's name."

The princess nodded and said, "It's good to come back and calm your mind. Jinhua was the one who took the lead in copying scriptures and chanting Buddha's name."

"Exactly."

"With Jinhua restraining them, I feel relieved. At least someone is keeping an eye on these three people."

When it comes to this, the eldest princess feels a headache.

Except for Shen Jingshu, who was the one she favored, the other two concubines were all brought into the mansion by Gu Yan'an.

At first, the three of them would come over to pay their respects, but later on, they were nowhere to be seen. After asking, she found out that all of them had been arranged to live in another courtyard by her good son.

I thought Gu Yan'an arranged the person to live in the other courtyard because he had not yet married his wife, but I didn't expect that she ran away on the wedding day.

As soon as the prince ran away, the entire mansion was busy looking for him, so they had no time to take care of the three concubines.

After the prince's escape was over, the princess remembered these three people and asked Yucui to call them back to the mansion.

No matter what, they are all the prince's people. As the prince's consort, Su Jinhua should naturally take care of them. As for whether she can stay in the mansion...

The scent of sandalwood from the beads on her wrist penetrated into her nose, calming the princess's restless mind. She immediately put away her thoughts and told Yucui, "Let them come over for dinner tonight."

"Yes."

……

As night fell, the mansion was shrouded in tranquility.

The golden candlelight shone through the exquisite lanterns, illuminating the entire main hall like a dream.

The eldest princess sat in the main seat, her face gentle but her eyes full of majesty.

She was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe embroidered with exquisite peony patterns, which made her look more noble and elegant.

Yucui stood aside, serving respectfully.

Normally, the eldest princess should have been the last to arrive at the table, but she wanted to see how these people performed, so she came early.

After a while, Su Jinhua arrived first. She was wearing a simple dress, looking elegant and refined.

Her manners are gentle and dignified, and her picturesque eyes and eyebrows are full of grace and elegance.

Seeing the eldest princess coming, he was a little surprised, but soon recovered and bowed: "Greetings to mother, mother's complexion has improved a lot, thank God for mother's health."

She did not take all the credit for herself, which made her sincerity seem even more genuine.

Sure enough, the princess looked at her gently with a kind smile, her eyes showing care and love. She took Su Jinhua's hand, patted it gently, and said with a smile: "Jinhua, you have worked hard these days. You have paid a lot for the Marquis' Mansion. This palace has seen it all. You must take good care of yourself and don't overwork yourself."

Feeling the warmth and strength of the princess's palm, Su Jinhua felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She bowed her head and said, "Mother, it's not hard for me to be your daughter-in-law. I am willing to help you and the Marquis's Mansion."

The princess shook her head and said, "You are always so sensible, but you must also remember that health is the most important thing. I don't want you to sacrifice your health for the Marquis's Mansion. You must combine work and rest and don't be too tired."

Su Jinhua nodded and said seriously: "My daughter-in-law understands and will pay attention to it."

The eldest princess smiled with satisfaction.

At this time, Gao Jinyu, Ji Fang and Shen Jingshu arrived together.

Gao Jinyu and Ji Fang both changed into simple and elegant clothes and took off their luxurious headdresses.

Not too stupid, Su Jinhua took a look and was not surprised.

"Greetings to mother and Crown Princess." The three said in unison, with a look of restraint and uneasiness on their faces.

"Jingshu is embroidering in the embroidery room, so it's ok for her to come late, but why did you two come so late?"

"The Crown Prince's wife has already arrived, but you are just here?"

The eldest princess looked dignified and questioned them in a cold voice.

Gao Jinyu knelt down quickly and said, "Reporting to mother, I copied the Buddhist scriptures in the temple this morning. I thought I would present them to you, so I revised them. This delayed me for some time. Please forgive me, mother."

After saying that, the maid Taohong quickly took out the Buddhist scriptures, knelt down and held them in her hands.

The eldest princess motioned to Yucui to get it, and Yucui walked over and took the Buddhist scriptures.

Looking at the neatly arranged small calligraphy with flowers on the hairpin, the eldest princess's expression eased a little.

"You're kind enough. Get up."

"Thank you, mother." Gao Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

Ji Fang knelt on the ground and hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Mother, I was delayed because... because I felt a little uncomfortable."

She was late simply because she wanted to dress up to outshine Su Jinhua, but fortunately Xinghua stopped her in time.

The princess frowned, obviously not satisfied with her explanation, and said sternly: "Uncomfortable? Do you think I'm blind? Or do you think the rules of the Marquis' Mansion are just for show!?"

Her voice was not loud, but it made the entire hall seem to tremble.

"Mother, please calm down!" Ji Fang was so scared that she was shaking all over. Gao Jinyu knelt down again when she saw this. Shen Jingshu was no exception, but her expression was neither humble nor arrogant, which aroused Su Jinhua's curiosity.

The eldest princess stood up and approached the three people kneeling on the ground step by step.

"I summoned you to the Marquis' Mansion to give you face. Don't think that I don't know your little thoughts."

"If you are lazy and slack, don't look for excuses to be perfunctory. If you do it again, don't blame me for being rude."

Ji Fang was so frightened that she kowtowed and apologized: "Mother, please calm down. I will never dare to do it again."

The eldest princess snorted coldly and turned around to sit down.

"Nothing can be accomplished without a calm mind. Only peace can bring peace. Aunt Ji's mind is not calm enough. You should reflect on your mistakes and calm your mind."

Ji Fang's heart trembled, and he immediately kowtowed to express his gratitude.

The eldest princess waved her hand and someone took her away. Since she had made a mistake, she could not dine with them.

Su Jinhua was surprised, and had expected that this dinner would not be smooth sailing. However, she did not expect that the eldest princess would support her as soon as she arrived, which warmed her heart.

"Mother, don't be angry. It's not worth it to ruin your health." Su Jinhua comforted her softly.

She did not plead for Ji Fang. If she had, it would have been an insult to the eldest princess.

"You are the Crown Prince's Consort, and you will also be the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion in the future. There is a hierarchy, and you must rectify this sneaky and cunning atmosphere."

"That's what mother said."

"In case someone is too arrogant and doesn't even understand this rule."

Gao Jinyu, who was standing aside, trembled and subconsciously tightened the handkerchief in her hand, while a hint of resentment flashed in Shen Jingshu's eyes, and it was unclear whether it was directed at the eldest princess or Su Jinhua.
