Chapter 691: Put It on Your Neck to Show Off
Ruanruan didn't know her father was worried and saw Liu Yanyan rushing towards him as if she were returning home.
Liu Yan picked up his daughter and then said to Shen Nian and others, "It's time to eat."
Shen Nian put down the teacup and asked, "Has Grandpa's notice arrived?"
"The notice has arrived. Grandpa has been waiting for this day. Don't worry, sister." Liu Yan said with a smile.
Ruanruan behaved in his arms, and he looked indulgent.
Men in Dai Viet are very particular about carrying grandchildren but not children. Just because he showed off his sister when his father carried her around his neck since she was a child, Liu Yan did not take Dai Viet's conventions to heart and did not hesitate to like his daughter.
The Shen family only wanted to see where Sister Nian lived. They didn't want to stay for a meal, let alone meet the old Duke.
When Liu Yan said that the old prince was here, his expression was very subtle.
What to do, there are some ways!
Li Xiuniang lowered her voice and whispered to Shen Nian, "Sister Nian, why didn't you say that the old prince was here?"
Shen Nian was stunned, "Mother didn't even ask."
Li Xiuniang was speechless, she really didn't ask.
I just thought I would come here for a walk, but who knew I would meet the old Duke.
They didn't bring anything with them, so rude.
This was because the Shen family had just arrived in Zhongdu and were not used to it yet. They thought they were still in the village and didn't pay attention.
Shen Nian noticed Li Xiuniang's hesitation and raised her eyebrows, "Don't worry, Mom, I've asked my servants to prepare things."
Li Xiuniang knew that Sister Nian was reliable, so she relaxed her mind and followed the Liu brothers down to the observation deck.
At this time, Sister Jing came to Shen Nian's side and asked with a smile: "Sister Niannian, is the old Duke fierce?"
Others pricked up their ears.
Duke Liu's residence is famous in Dai Viet, and it is most prosperous among the old Duke and Duke Liu.
Since Shen Nian returned to Duke Guo's Mansion, the Shen family has learned more and more about Duke Liu's Mansion, and because of this, they are even more panicked at this time.
"Not fierce." Shen Nian said, "Grandpa is the most kind and approachable. He is always smiling and has no airs at all."
Shen Rou pursed her lips and asked, "How about compared with me?"
The man she was talking about was naturally Mr. Shen.
Mr. Shen didn't stay in Shen's house for two days. He heard that Sister Nian had prepared a manor outside the city, so he immediately moved there.
He had never lived with his juniors, and when he first lived with them, he felt uncomfortable everywhere.
Beside them, Liu Yan and Liu Sheng looked at each other unintentionally, with subtle expressions.
Grandfather is the kindest and most amiable person?
Sister, are you serious?
The two brothers looked at their sister with a tacit understanding, and found that Shen Nian's face was full of seriousness, and she actually felt that her grandfather was kind and amiable.
"..."
Thinking of the self-cultivation and self-cultivation that my sister smiled in front of me, I felt that it was not surprising that my sister made such a comment.
...Okay.
Grandfather is the most kind and amiable!
Shen Nian replied to Shen Rou, "Grandpa is as kind as me."
Therefore, the Shen family's initial impression of the old Duke was what Mr. Shen looked like.
Liu Yan and Liu Sheng still said nothing.
You'll find out in a moment.
While talking, the group of people came to the reception courtyard of the Duke's Mansion.
Not long after they sat down, the old Duke Guo and Duke Liu arrived, followed by Liu Ji, the heir to the Duke's mansion.
"Grandpa, dad, eldest brother!" Shen Nian shouted with a smile.
These words woke up the Shen family who saw the old Duke's dull face.
They stood up one after another and saluted several people.
"The common people have seen the old Duke, Liu Guogong, and the eldest son Liu..."
"A common woman has seen..."
The Shen family was taught by the nuns sent by the Qing princess. Although the etiquette they performed was not very pleasing to the eye, it was better than standard.
The old man waved his hand, gave his servants a look, and motioned for them to help him up, and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, just be casual. Just treat it as your own home, don't be restrained."
Can you be free from restraint?
The Shen family didn't know where to put their hands and feet, and they were so excited that they didn't know what to say.
Shen Kun, on the other hand, had met the old Duke several times and was very calm.
"Father, mother, uncle, uncle, third uncle... you guys sit down."
Li Xiuniang glared at him, this guy has a big heart.
The old Duke liked Shen Kun's temperament and immediately said with a smile: "Listen to Brother Kun and sit down together. The Liu family and the Shen family are one family. There will be many opportunities to sit together in the future, so don't be polite."
Hearing the sincerity in his words, Shen Er and others sat down with their butts on fire at any moment.
There was nothing they could do, the old Duke was so prestigious that they didn't dare act presumptuously.
Shen Nian looked at his parents, uncle and others sitting upright, like students in a school, and looked at Shen Kun. The brother and sister couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The Shen family was nervous, and their laughter seemed so inappropriate.
In one moment, I gained several pairs of eyes.
Shen Nian suppressed her smile, filled a bowl of soup for Li Xiuniang with her own hands, and said seriously: "Mom, drink soup before meals. It's good for your health."
Put it in front of Li Xiuniang and hold it for Shen Ersheng again.
She was not partial, and she was favored by Liu Guogong and her grandfather.
Liu Guogong's eyes were filled with a happy smile and he said, "The soup my daughter serves is fragrant."
Shen Er and Li Xiuniang then picked up their bowls and drank soup.
Sister Nian was very fond of the skills of the chefs in Prince Rong's palace. When Liu Guogong learned about this, he hired several chefs with excellent cooking skills at a high price.
A small soup that is delicious, delicious and tasty.
With a mouthful of hot soup in their throats, the Shen family was conquered by the delicious food and all forgot about their nervousness.
Especially Sister Jing, who is second only to Shen Nian as a foodie. She is serious about food and can keep her head down when no one cares about her.
After the meal, the two families got to know each other a lot.
After dinner, the old man mentioned his granddaughter’s marriage.
"My sweet granddaughter's wedding is coming soon, and you are also her relatives. When the time comes, come to the house and we will get her married together. Do you have any objections?"
When the daughter (niece) got married, Shen Er and others naturally wanted to see it with their own eyes and immediately agreed.
"Of course I have no objection." Shen Erdai replied.
On the way to Zhongdu, they were worried that they wouldn't be able to show up at Sister Nian's wedding, but they didn't expect the old Duke to bring it up personally.
They love it!
"Then it's settled." The old Duke made the final decision, and then looked at Wen Chu, the temporary housekeeper, "Daughter-in-law, please ask someone to prepare a few yards. A few days before Zhizhi's wedding, her parents lived in the Duke's mansion. Well, it saves you running back and forth."
Wenchu responded with a smile on his face, "My daughter-in-law knows, grandpa can rest assured."
The Shen family thanked the old Duke.
The old Duke knew that the Shen family would feel uncomfortable if he stayed here, so he left after speaking.
As soon as he left, Sister Jing felt like a big mountain had been moved away from her head. She finally dared to make a mistake and scratched Shen Nian's itchy flesh angrily, "Sister Niannian, you also said that the old prince is the same as me, but they are not the same at all. The Duke is much more majestic. As soon as those eyes fell on me, I didn’t dare to breathe..."
Even if the old prince looks smiling...
Shen Nian took some time to ask back: "You mean... I'm not majestic?"
Sister Jing said quickly: "I didn't say it directly."
"Oh -?" Shen Nian dragged on, "Then you can tell me indirectly? Okay, I will tell you this when I see you in a few days."
Sister Jing was stunned, "Sister Niannian, don't hurt me!"
"...Don't accuse me wrongly." After saying this, Shen Nian slowly walked forward.
Sister Jing:! ! !
