Chapter 848 Shao Huaan Gets Married

It was a few days later that Aunt Yu came back with the news.

It's not that Aunt Yu is inefficient, it's because she wants to prevent people from discovering that Piaoyun Court is paying attention to Mr. Yan's affairs. After all, there is no way that this matter has anything to do with Shao Wanru. If she sends someone to inquire, it is actually Unreasonable.

"Miss, the Yan family is an aristocratic family that has always guarded the border. It is also considered a family friend of our family. We still have to chase the old Duke. Then the old Duke and the old man of the Yan family will be They are a very good pair of brothers. I heard that they both fought together with the late emperor. It can be said that they have a life-long friendship!"

Aunt Yu picked out some useful information and reported it to Shao Wanru.

"I also heard that the two families wanted to get married at that time, but because neither family had a direct lady, the matter had to be abandoned. Moreover, our Duke's Palace accompanied the late Emperor to Beijing, and the Yan Family still stayed at the side. Hammer guard."

When Shao Wanru heard this, his watery eyes blinked slightly, and he grasped the key point, "The friendship between the two families is not the friendship between the second uncle and Mr. Yan!"

"Yes, it should be like this. It is not just the friendship between the Duke and the Duke, but the existing friendship between the two houses. I heard that the Tai Furen also cares about Mr. Yan very much and sends people to the outer courtyard to ask questions from time to time. "

Aunt Yu nodded and said, she had to go through several detours before she found out these words quietly. In order to avoid being discovered by others and affecting the reputation of her own lady, Aunt Yu was very careful, for fear that if she did something wrong, she would be implicated again. The reputation of my own lady.

In fact, from Aunt Yu's point of view, her young lady shouldn't pay attention to a foreign man's affairs at this time. The young lady is about to become Princess Chen. If anyone finds out, she will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, causing a huge uproar. The Duke of Xingguo will surely There are few people in the government who are kind to young ladies.

Seeing that Shao Wanru was silent, Aunt Yu cautiously advised: "Miss, I think this kind of thing has nothing to do with you."

Knowing that Aunt Yu also had good intentions, Shao Wanru nodded and changed the topic: "Does Prince Wang appear in our house from time to time recently?"

"This prince is really annoying, and no master likes him. Every time he comes here, he really thinks of himself as an uncle, but the prince doesn't say anything clearly, so everyone can only let him come and go. "There is quite a lot of news about Wang Shengxue. Even if Aunt Yu didn't bother to inquire, she still heard a lot.

This prince hasn't been here for a while, but he has become more diligent when he comes recently. After coming, he likes to show off money, as if he really regards himself as the master of the house, which is really annoying.

"When Miss Wang disappeared, didn't he never come?" Shao Wanru asked, a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes. She clearly remembered that when she entered the palace for the draft, Wang Shengxue did not come to the house. of.

The incident involving Wang Yishu caused him to fall out with the Duke of Xingguo. What's more, he threatened the Duke of Xingguo at that time. Even the wife had to pay homage to Wang Yishu. Such a distant junior actually worked for the wife. Madam, a self-proclaimed person, had a hard time enduring this tone.

At that time, Wang Shengxue was also confident, and he clearly had a new backer, otherwise Duke Xingguo would not have shown weakness like this, nor would he have allowed the wife to compromise like this. Not only did she give away the house, but she also brought a group of sisters to worship Wang Yishu. This was considered as giving Wang Shengxue enough face.

Under this situation, the most normal thing to do is that Wang Shengxue should no longer have contact with Duke Xingguo. He was originally a distant relative, and he will no longer be able to visit him in the future.

Something happened to the Jiang family, and the evidence in Wang Shengxue's hands was useless. Even if Wang Shengxue wanted to come back, the wife would definitely not agree, let alone the way she is now watching him act recklessly in the house without saying a word. .

Now that the handle has lost its effect, Mrs. Etai's temperament will make the doorkeeper never allow Wang Shengxue to enter the door, but the current scene is actually not like that. It seems that she is opening one eye, closing one eye, and letting Wang Shengxue toss around in the house. The result of his troubles is related to Yan Xi.

Shao Wanru thought about what the coachman reported for a long time, and came to the conclusion that Wang Shengxue was definitely not innocent in the matter between Yan Xi and Miss Zhao, and it might even have been planned by him. So what was Wang Shengxue planning?

Of course, it can also be said that the people behind Wang Shengxue are planning something!

And this matter should have something to do with Duke Xingguo's Mansion, otherwise Wang Shengxue would not be able to enter through the gate of Duke Xingguo's Mansion based on his behavior in the past. Now not only has he entered, he seems to be coming and going quite freely. Although the servants hate him, he still can't get in. The masters didn't say anything, and the servants could only talk behind their backs.

"Aunt Yu, you should pay attention to Mr. Wang next. Their brother and sister have had a grudge against me in the past. Even if someone finds out that you are inquiring about his affairs, it will be fine!"

Shao Wanru raised her eyebrows and already had a decision in her heart!

"Okay, I understand!" Aunt Yu nodded hurriedly and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She was really worried that her young lady had fallen in love with Mr. Yan. Her young lady was about to get married. She would not pay attention to a foreign man at this time. Great.

On the day of Shao Huaan's wedding, Shao Wanru got up early. Although it was at the groom's house, he also got ready for all the affairs early.

After having some breakfast, Shao Wanru went to the Madam's Spring Hall.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a burst of laughter. It turned out that everyone in the third room was actually there. In fact, it was not just the third room, but Shao Jie'er was also let out and sat down at the bottom with his head bowed.

The Third Madam has never been in good health, and she got up early today. She sat on one side of the Madam, and on the other side of the Madam were Shao Jie'er, Shao Caihuan and Shao Cailing.

Seeing Shao Wanru come in, the third lady smiled and said to the dowager: "Mom, look, we just mentioned Wanru, and she is here!"

The madam raised her eyes, glanced at Shao Wanru, snorted lukewarmly, and her attitude was very cold.

Shao Wanru was accustomed to such a cold attitude. He stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the Madam. The Madam waved her hand: "Sit down first. I'll be waiting for you!"

Shao Wanru retreated to the chair next to the third lady and sat down. The corner of his lips curled up slightly, with a bit of ridicule, just waiting for him? This is scolding myself for being the last to come, but in fact I got up early today, much earlier than when I used to say hello.

But judging from their appearance, they must have been here for a while. Someone must have informed them that they were here in advance. It was obvious that they had not received such news.

"Mother, please see how we will arrange things today. My wife is not in good health, and you know it too!" The third lady coughed lowly and covered her mouth gently with a handkerchief.

Ever since I met this third lady, the third lady's health seemed to have been in such bad shape.

"We don't care about the matters in the outer courtyard. You are in charge of the matters in the inner courtyard. If you are not in good health, let the third and fifth girls help you. The fourth girl receives the ladies and talks with them. Go shopping, I'll be in the flower hall, talking to the ladies who don't want to move around."

The madam cleared her throat and said.

Shao Wanru's hand holding the handkerchief tightened slightly, and then relaxed. This was a bit unexpected to her. She originally thought that it would be enough to accompany her like this, but she did not expect that she would be assisting the third lady in doing things.

She didn't know anything about Duke Xing Guo's affairs. In fact, she might as well use a nun in charge of the house!

"Wanru, why don't you take care of the kitchen for the third aunt?" The third lady smiled and looked at Shao Wanru and said.

"Third Aunt, I...I don't understand this..." Shao Wanru looked at the third lady nervously, with a confused look on her face.

Taking charge of a kitchen is not something that happens overnight. Today, he suddenly took charge of it. In this case, he would take care of the trouble himself. Shao Wanru didn't think this was a good idea.

"How about you help the third aunt take care of the tea?" The third lady seemed to find this embarrassing for Shao Wanru, so she didn't force it. After thinking about it, she asked with a smile.

It was difficult to refuse the first time, but it was difficult to refuse the second time. Besides, taking care of the tea could not be simpler than taking care of the kitchen.

"Okay, then I will help the third aunt take care of the tea. If I do something bad, I hope the third aunt will teach me!" Shao Wanru agreed softly, and then sat quietly aside, listening to Mrs. Tai's talk. The three ladies discussed various matters at the banquet.

After everything was discussed, the wife asked the stewards from each department to come over. The third lady went to the wing to meet the stewards and arrange everything for today.

Shao Wanru and Shao Caihuan accompanied the third lady together. They were the third lady's helpers today, so they naturally stayed with the third lady as much as possible.

Shao Caihuan still wore a veil, and she felt comfortable sitting next to the third lady. Although she smiled kindly and gently at Shao Wanru, she no longer had the fawning look before.

It seems to have returned to its former appearance.

Although the third lady is in poor health, she is quite handy and neat in doing things. During this period, she has handled everything in Duke Xingguo's mansion, and she is very familiar with it now.

After being ordered, the stewards of each department withdrew one by one and went about their business.

The third lady asked Shao Wanru and Shao Caihuan to check the part of the affairs assigned to them.

Shao Wanru took Yujie to the tea room. She was now mainly responsible for serving tea to the guests in the inner courtyard. The reception of the female family members was also placed in a large flower hall in the inner courtyard.

The tea room is right next to the large flower hall. It is not a small room, but a separate courtyard. When Shao Wanru came over, the maids and women inside were busy. The so-called tea is of course not just tea, but also tea. There are some melon and fruit snacks, which are placed on the plates one by one.

Seeing Shao Wanru coming over, the lady in charge of the tea room hurriedly came over with a smile to say hello. When they were at the third lady's place, the third lady had already explained that this matter was under the fifth lady's charge.

"Are these snacks used today so exquisite?" Shao Wanru asked, looking at the still steaming plate of snacks. In order to curry favor with Shao Wanru, the steward took them out of the steamer. They were not big. A plate of dim sum, full of color, flavor and taste. It was obvious at first glance that it was excellent, especially since Shao Wanru had just had a quick breakfast.

Looking at such soft and chewy snacks, I really feel hungry!
