Chapter 13: hired

Chapter 13 Hiring

Shen Mingjiao feels that this year's royal family is definitely the most close to the people and benevolent in history.

If this matter was placed in the former dynasty or the first emperor's period, he dared to discuss the scandalous news of the nobles so unscrupulously, and boldly wrote it into a storybook-although none of them used their real names, but anyone with eyes would know who it was written about.

I don’t know how many times my family has been ransacked and exterminated.

At this time, Cui Liu came in, looked at the cozy master and servant, and said, "Fourth Miss, the third son-in-law is here to hire today, Madam wants you to go to the flower hall."

Shen Mingjiao didn't even lift his eyes, "Tell your wife, just say that I'm busy embroidering the dowry and I don't have time."

In the past, in order to avoid trouble, she would have to maintain a face-to-face relationship with these people.

Can now. Since he has the backing of King Su's Mansion and doesn't need to care about other people's feelings, why should she wrong herself to do something she doesn't like? Now that her identity is there, no matter how upset Li is, she can only hold back.

Cui Liu felt a sting in her heart, but she thought that the other party was about to marry into Su Wang's mansion, and she was no longer like a transparent person who could be ignored at will, so she had to hold back her breath and forced a smile to leave.

Haitang made a face at the back of her leaving,

Cui Liu returned to the flower hall, and told Shen Mingjiao's words crisply in front of everyone.

Ms. Li glanced at Cui Liu, and then she sighed sadly:

"Don't think about it too much. The fourth girl has lost her parents since she was a child. She is the most pitiful. If there are any good things in the house on weekdays, they are all tight to the fourth girl. But this child doesn't know what's wrong. She always keeps her head down and doesn't dare Watch people."

She smiled gratifiedly: "It's all right now, she is favored by King Su, and she no longer has to live cautiously."

Although she said so, it was heard by everyone. He only felt that Shen Mingjiao was an ungrateful white-eyed wolf once he gained power.

A middle-aged woman with a mean face snorted coldly: "Madam is just too kind-hearted. In my opinion, you have worked so hard to raise her. If she doesn't respect you, it is not filial."

The companion beside her pulled her. At any rate, she was the future Princess Su. Be cautious when speaking. Not smiling now is a serious crime.

But then a young woman lowered her voice and said: "I heard that the reason why King Su is willing to marry her is because she used dirty tricks to get married with King Su, and just happened to be bumped into by the sage, so King Su had no choice but to marry her." marry..."

Another person around immediately came over curiously, and also lowered his voice: "It's not that King Su just wanted to anger Miss Su..."

"Hey! You can believe it, how could His Royal Highness King Su do such a naive thing? I see, maybe she did something..."

Thanks to all kinds of stories and story books, everyone has a bad impression of Shen Mingjiao, the sudden appearance of Queen Su, and they feel that King Su has no choice but to marry her.

Even if some people don't believe it at first, they will subconsciously feel that Shen Mingjiao is indeed a bad woman with scheming.

Ms. Li held up the teacup, covering the corners of her slightly raised lips.

Although it is an indisputable fact that Shen Mingjiao married into Prince Su's mansion, Lord Hou also told her that she must win him over, but thinking of the face in her memory, she didn't want to make that little **** feel better.

Shen Mingyan listened to these people buzzing about Shen Mingjiao, a secret pleasure flashed through her heart, but she couldn't help but spurn such a self.

But at this time, a servant came to report that the people from the Ministry of Rituals came to give the fourth girl the wedding dress and other things for the big wedding.

In an instant, the faces of the people who were talking excitedly froze, and the whole flower hall seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and a needle could be heard quietly.

Mrs. Li quickly realized that she smiled and asked people to send the things directly to the fourth girl's rose garden, saying that this is the practice of princes getting married.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, right? It's just part of the royal wedding process, no big deal.

However, at the next moment, another servant came to report that Mr. Hua, the chief executive of Prince Su’s mansion, had come, followed by a large group of guards carrying boxes, saying that he was ordered by Prince Su to give the fourth girl a dowry.

Li Shihuo stood up and followed the servants to the door. The rest of the people also stared in surprise and followed behind curiously.

At the gate of Hou's Mansion, Hua Gongzheng directed people to move boxes of things into the mansion, causing the neighbors to watch for a while. At the same time, I can't help but wonder, isn't it rumored that King Su was forced to marry this girl Shen?

Grandpa Hua didn’t seem to think it was enough, so he took the generous gift list handed over by his entourage, cleared his throat, and began to sing and read aloud:

"A five-foot-tall red coral..."

"Ten pieces of silk brocade..."

"Golden thousand taels..."

"Drawing the picture of the sage Wu Daozi sending his son to the heavenly king..."

Every time a sentence is read, the guard carrying the box will gently lift a corner of the box in response to the occasion, and it is extremely high-profile. Everyone was already stunned by all kinds of rare treasures.

This is not a low-level employment, this is an existence that wants to empty out the family! Any single thing here can be used as the treasure of some small families.

Ms. Li and others greeted rows of guards carrying boxes. She was about to speak when she heard the high-pitched voice of Grandpa Hua at the door.

"A piece of top-quality old pit glass that weighs ten catties..."

"A hot spring village in the suburbs of Beijing..."

"A thousand acres of good farmland..."

"There are 108 shops on the East Street of Beijing..."

Every time they listened to one more sentence, everyone's eyes widened. At the end, those with poor mental quality almost fell to the ground with weak legs.

It's not that they haven't seen the world, it's just that these things are too precious.

Not to mention anything else, the 108 shops in the east of the city have countless incomes every year just from rent collection.

At this moment, everyone deeply understood why rumors cannot be trusted.

Looking at these priceless objects passing by her, Li's face turned green and pale. In comparison, the betrothal gift Pei Ji sent before seemed like a joke.

Shen Mingyan's nails were deeply embedded in her palms. Today was supposed to be a great day for her, but right now, Shen Mingjiao stole the limelight.

At this moment, the guilt of snatching away the marriage disappeared, replaced by a little hatred.

Mr. Li suppressed her emotions and ordered people to carry these things to the big warehouse.

At this time, the father-in-law Hua who had finished reading the gift list came over, looked at her with a smile, but said something unceremoniously:

"Don't bother Madam, these things are for our princess. Naturally, an old slave has to deliver them to the princess's yard in person, and then the princess will take them away when she gets married."

Being exposed, Li's face was a little ugly, but thinking of the other party's identity, he could only forcefully respond with a smile.

In Rose Garden, Shen Mingjiao had just sent off the people from the Ministry of Rites, and was arranging the residence of two nuns.

I saw Eunuch Hua walking in with a smile. When he saw her, the smile on his face became even brighter. A few steps forward to salute him.

Shen Mingjiao hurried forward to help him up, "Elder-in-law, don't be too polite."

This is her old buddy in the previous life. It can be said that she has more contact with Mr. Hua than Feng Lisheng.

Immediately ordered Haitang: "Bring the sour plum soup hanging from the well."

Eunuch Hua raised his eyebrows, and said excitedly: "The princess is really infatuated with His Highness, even the trivial matter that this old slave likes to drink sour plum soup is clear."
