After dinner, some female relatives left, Shen Qingyue, Shen Qingjia and Mrs. Zhen chatted with the old lady to digest food, while walking in the garden, Mrs. Zhen mentioned her son's marriage and said she wanted to ask the old lady for advice.

A few people were talking, the old lady seemed to suddenly remember, and looked sideways at Shen Mingshu, "Young lady is seventeen this year, right?"

Shen Mingshu lowered his eyes, and Shen Qingyue and Shen Qingjia, who were supporting the old lady, all raised their eyebrows.

The old lady pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "You are getting old, what are your plans for marriage?"

Shen Mingshu was already prepared, took out a marriage contract, presented it to the old lady with both hands, and said: "Before my mother left, she had arranged a marriage for me, and I came to the capital this time for this purpose."

The old lady narrowed her eyes and looked at Mrs. Zhen, "This Luo Xin...is the one I know?"

Mrs. Zhen also stepped forward to take a look, her eyes flashed, she hesitated for a moment and said: "It should be the second young lady of Luo Mansion."

Over the years, the child has gradually grown up. Mrs. Zhen and the old lady are planning the marriage of their children and grandchildren, and they know a little about the ladies of various families in the capital. The second lady of the Luo Mansion has also heard of it. There are also some mental deficiencies.

The old lady took a closer look at the handwriting and seal on the marriage contract, and it was indeed her daughter's handwriting and private seal.

Shen Mingshu explained: "A few years ago, when my mother was pregnant with me, she accidentally felt unwell, and was rescued by this Luo Xin's mother. Later, the two of them got in touch with each other more and became more speculative, so they entered into this marriage contract. I was thinking about this lady, and told me not to forget that Qingyue Qingjia was also there at that time."

Shen Qingyue and Shen Qingjia nodded naturally, the old lady was a little hesitant, although she didn't like Shen Mingshu very much, it wouldn't make her look like a fool just like that.

Shen Mingshu continued: "Before I went to Beijing, I also sent people to look for this lady's whereabouts, but I found out some ridiculous news. This lady was clearly a regular wife when she met my mother, but her husband wanted to marry an official lady. Changed his wife into a concubine, and changed the lady's daughter's age by one year, and became the second lady of Luo Mansion."

Upon first hearing this kind of secret news, Mrs. Zhen opened her eyes wide and said in amazement: "There is such a reason."

The old lady's expression also changed a bit, Shen Mingshu sighed, and said: "Before I went to Beijing, I got the news that this lady has passed away, I can only repay this lady's daughter."

The old lady's expression moved slightly, and said: "Yuxuan has a good heart, you can remember her words, you are also a good child, but the second lady of the Luo family is a fool after all, I'm afraid you will regret it later."

Shen Mingshu smiled and said: "It's a coincidence, yesterday I ran into the second young lady of the Luo family by chance, and was left alone by the servants at the door of the jewelry shop in Dongshi. , advancing and retreating politely, but unlike the rumored fool, he is a pure-hearted child."

The old lady pondered for a moment, then said: "Since you have made up your mind, I have nothing to say, so I will ask your aunt to help you see it again."

Mrs. Zhen saw that the old lady had opened her mouth, so there was no reason not to agree, so she responded with a smile.

In this way, the marriage contract has passed the light, Shen Mingshu heaved a sigh of relief, this matter is naturally not true, she has already imitated exactly the same mother's handwriting, and it became the first thing that moved Zhang's mother, and then she told this benefactor's misery The situation caused Zhang's mother to sigh and regret, and in the end she became very fond of Luo Xin.

In this way, he successfully passed the test of the old lady. Although the old lady said that Mrs. Zhen should keep an eye on it, she was actually the one who would pay attention to this matter, and it would be convenient for her to carry out various plans afterwards.

Shen Mingshu smiled slightly, and carefully put away the marriage contract.

Chapter 5 Food Box

In the afternoon, the second aunt, Qin, went back to Zhang's mansion, sat on the side with a smile, and accompanied the female relatives to talk to the old lady, with a timid expression on her face.

Before the dinner, the two uncles and cousins ​​also came back, Shen Mingshu led Shen Qingjia to visit these few, and they took a seat together.Zhang Manor's dinner is naturally exquisite and delicious.

During the chat, the Elder of the Zhang Mansion taught Shen Mingshu and Shen Qingjia earnestly. As an official in the court, his vision has grown a lot, and he has always been able to accurately grasp the direction of the court, and he treats the two of them sincerely as nephews , Naturally, he did not hesitate to teach.

Halfway through the banquet, the old lady called the old man and the others to go over, the old man walked in front, then Shen Qingjia and his second cousin, Shen Mingshu and the second old man of the Zhang family walked behind.

"Maybe Mingshu will stay longer when he comes back to the capital?" The second master smiled enthusiastically, but it was a pity that there were some shrewd calculations in his eyes, which ruined the kind and elder appearance on his face.

With a humble smile of a junior on his face, Shen Mingshu replied: "It's a rare visit, so we naturally want to stay longer."

The second master smiled with his beard, he laughed, and said in a soft voice: "Your cousin has always loved to play, and he knows all kinds of places in Beijing. If you want to go to the area south of our house, you might as well ask him for his idea."

Shen Mingshu opened his eyes slightly, and then bowed his head respectfully, covering the dark light in his eyes. She hadn't guessed that the second master's hand had stretched so long. Thinking of the news he had received in these years, I'm afraid The debts that the uncle and the cousin were carrying were almost unbearable.

The second master was very satisfied with Shen Mingshu's reaction. This was a kind reminder he gave her. Although she didn't know why this niece was so determined to marry a fool, since she could sell favors, why not do it.

While the two were talking, they went to the inner hall, where a crowd of people happily talked around the old lady.

Shen Mingshu noticed that Shen Qingjia was standing beside his second cousin with a smile, turned to the door, found Shen Lang, the servant who was serving Shen Qingjia personally, gave a few instructions in a low voice, and then went back to his seat and sat down.

Zhang's mansion is lively and lively, but the atmosphere in Luo's mansion is not as cheerful as it is.

Sitting on the imperial concubine's couch, Mrs. Wang slightly closed her eyes, enjoying the servant girl pinching her legs and rubbing her shoulders, and absently listening to Cuiyun's words below.

Cuiyun knelt down in fear. Ever since she met that noble man who treated fools differently in Dongshi that day, she was worried about the words of the visit. She thought it was just a fluke to scare her, but she didn't expect it to be true. Someone sent a greeting card to your door.

Mrs. Wang listened impatiently to Cuiyun's trembling narration, opened her eyes and sat up, and asked calmly, "So you left Miss Er on the street alone that day?"

"Yes," Cuiyun didn't expect his wife to be angry at this point. Isn't the contempt and bullying of that fool all acquiesced by the wife? But at this time, she naturally didn't dare to say that, so she could only kowtow and beg for mercy, "The servant knows Wrong, I beg my wife to spare my servant."

Mrs. Wang gathered the gold hairpin on one side, and looked at Cuiyun who kowtowed in disgust. She really didn't care about the bullying of the people in Huanxiangyuan by the people in the mansion, but she didn't want to be judged by outsiders.

She waved the maid who was beating her leg to step back, and then said flatly: "This matter is indeed your negligence. You didn't take good care of the second lady of the Luo Mansion. You should be punished."

Mrs. Wang was thinking about how to punish this little servant girl, her eyes fell on Cuiyun's side face, her heart moved slightly, and she said, "You raise your head and let me have a look."

Cuiyun was afraid of being severely punished, when she heard such a sentence, she seemed to have grasped at straws, raised her head and lowered her eyes, waiting for the order of the mistress.

Mrs. Wang took a closer look at Cuiyun's appearance, she didn't have to do heavy work on weekdays, but she was raised like a young lady, and she had grown up in recent years, her eyebrows and eyes were quite amorous.

She pondered for a moment, then said calmly: "Because you are the first offender, you will be fined this month's monthly money, and you will have to take good care of the second lady outside in the future."

Cuiyun was overjoyed, she didn't expect to be spared so much, and quickly kowtowed to thank her.

Mrs. Wang waved her to go down, Cuiyun stood up and retreated respectfully, just as she went out, she saw Luo Xixiao who was surrounded by the eldest lady from a distance, and hurriedly avoided to the side to salute.

Luo Xixiao glanced at her lightly, and then entered Wang's courtyard, Cuiyun completely relaxed and left quickly.
