Chapter 340 I'm sorry
Chapter 340 I'm sorry
Soon it was Mrs. Shen’s birthday party.The genius was slightly bright, and Shen Ruzhou got up early to dress up.
She put on a pomegranate red brocade dress, and asked Miao Dong to give her a double bun with a jade hairpin inserted at an angle. She looked upright and elegant, exuding the noble temperament of a lady.
Miaodong was dumbfounded, her eyes widened, "She's so beautiful, the young lady is like a beauty from a book, who captivates the country and the city."
"Miaodong, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter."
Shen Ruzhou smiled with satisfaction and took another look in the mirror, "Today is my grandmother's birthday party. I'm afraid the family will be too busy. Let's go there early."
"Yes, ma'am."
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, Shen Ruzhou saw from a distance that his father and brother were already waiting in front of the door to welcome guests.
"Father, brother."
Shen Ruzhou called out sweetly and stepped forward to salute.
Shen Mu looked around and after confirming that Shen Ruzhou came alone, his face sank involuntarily.
"Why didn't King Wu Cheng come with you?"
Shen Ruzhou blurted out the reason he had already thought of, "He has something to do today and can't get away."
Shen Mu looked at his daughter hesitantly, and when he saw her eyes twinkling, he knew that she was not telling the truth. He remembered what happened at the last palace banquet, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Are you having a conflict with King Wucheng?"
Shen Ruzhou was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect his father to notice that there was a problem in her relationship with Xiao Chenyan.
Shen Chumu hurriedly came over to smooth things over, "Father, King Wu Cheng is now highly regarded by the emperor and has taken on a lot of errands. It is normal for him to be too busy."
What Shen Chumu said made sense, but Shen Mu was still uneasy and wanted to ask again, but when he saw Grand Master Yu getting off the sedan, he had to put aside his doubts and hurriedly warned, "Today is your grandmother's sixtieth birthday. Please restrain yourself and don’t cause trouble.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he went straight to greet the guests.
When Shen Ruzhou saw her father turn around, her tense back relaxed slightly. Unexpectedly, before she could take a breath, the next moment she was dragged into the yard by Shen Chumu.
Seeing no one around, Shen Chumu frowned and asked, "Are you and Xiao Chenyan having a conflict?"
Shen Ruzhou yawned widely and said vaguely, "No."
Seeing her sister's tired look, Shen Chumu felt a trace of distress in his eyes, "Still worried about Heli? No matter how worried you are, you must take care of your own body."
"Brother, you are worrying too much. I just didn't sleep well last night."
Shen Ruzhou saw a case in a medical book yesterday that was very similar to the Beixiu Banquet, and he studied it for a long time. It was not until midnight that he went to wash up and rest under Miao Dong's constant urging.
Shen Chumu was dubious, pinched Shen Ruzhou's shoulder, and said sincerely, "Don't think too much, I will help you with the matter of reconciliation."
At the end, I did not forget to remind you, "Remember, never act carelessly on impulse."
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou cried out that he was wronged and pouted in protest, "I won't be impulsive."
But before he could finish his words, Shen Chumu slapped her hard in the face, "Aren't you impulsive? Who was the one who went to the Supreme Emperor to propose marriage without telling the whole family?"
Thinking of the stupid things he had done before, Shen Ruzhou's face hurt for a while, and he just wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
She held Shen Chumu's arm and shook it, acting coquettishly, "Brother, don't mention that matter. I'm so sorry that my intestines are green. I will stay calm and calm again from now on, and I will never act impulsively. I promise."
Shen Chumu was obviously used to seeing her like this and didn't buy it at all.
Shen Ruzhou gritted his teeth, raised three fingers to the sky, and vowed to swear, "I, Shen Ruzhou, swear to the sky today, if I do it again in the future..."
"I believe you are."
Shen Chumu suddenly interrupted, fearing that his sister would be impulsive in the future and if she really agreed to the oath...
While they were talking, there were more people in the courtyard. Shen Chumu could not delay any longer and urged Shen Ruzhou to go to the backyard to meet his grandmother, while he went to the front hall to help greet the guests.
Shen Ruzhou walked through a corridor and arrived at his grandmother's yard.The old man’s favorite magnolia was placed in front of the hospital, and the inside and outside of the courtyard were also grandly decorated, making it very festive.
Before entering the room, I heard a lot of talking and laughing inside, which was very lively.The maid opened the curtain diligently and said with a smile: "The eldest lady is here. The old lady was talking about you just now."
The second aunt Yao heard this and hurried over to greet her. She held Shen Ruzhou's hand familiarly and couldn't help praising her, "Look, our Ruzhou is getting more and more beautiful. There aren't many people in Kyoto who have such a figure." !”
He looked cordial, as if nothing had happened to his family that was embarrassing to the Shen family a while ago.
Mrs. Yao pulled Shen Ruzhou over and introduced the guests in the room to her, "This is Taishi Yu's wife, and this is Taifu Liu's daughter..."
With a polite smile on Shen Ruzhou's face, she greeted everyone one by one. Mrs. Shen was sitting in the main hall wearing a red brocade robe that would prolong life. Her kind face made people want to get close to her. As soon as she saw Shen Ruzhou, she She pulled him next to him and sat down.
Sitting below were the wives of several high-ranking officials, all of whom were dressed gracefully and luxuriously, and the ladies from various houses who came with them were also dressed very elegantly and pleasantly.
Among them, the most outstanding one is Yu Yan'er, the daughter of Grand Master Yu. Her fair and delicate face, paired with a green dress, has a fresh and elegant look like hibiscus emerging from clear water.
Shen Ruzhou raised the corners of his mouth coldly, which was in line with her Xiao Bailian's temperament.
In comparison, Shen Rumeng, who was standing next to her, was much different. She just didn't look outstanding. Her makeup and clothes were randomly matched, and she had a petty air everywhere.
The ladies in the room couldn't help but praise Shen Ruzhou when they saw him.
"The old lady has really raised a good granddaughter. She looks really handsome."
"Princess Wucheng is not only good-looking, but also has superb medical skills. She cured all Princess Zhaoyang's illnesses."
"Whether you marry well or not, King Wu Cheng is highly regarded by the emperor, and his future prospects are limitless."
"..."
Mrs. Shen listened to everyone's words of appreciation and smiled from ear to ear. At this time, Shen Rumeng snorted coldly, which was very abrupt.
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Shen Rumeng.
She curled her lips with disdain on her face, "So what if she marries King Wu Cheng, King Wu Cheng doesn't even come with you on such a big day like today. It shows that she is just an unfavored princess!"
"Maybe one day, Shen Ruzhou will be dismissed."
Although Shen Rumeng's words sounded unpleasant, most people present knew they were true.
Worried that Shen Ruzhou would be embarrassed, Shen Rulan quickly changed the subject and invited everyone to try the newly made pastries.
"presumptuous!"
