She was wearing a goose yellow jacket with cute birds embroidered on it. She looked pretty, clever, cute and soft. She knelt there and cried pitifully. Princess Huai'an really couldn't stand it.
She immediately asked Amber to help her up, and held her to comfort her, "Your brother Jue really doesn't know how to be gentle with women. I'll teach him a lesson for you later! But copying scriptures is not without benefits. It can cultivate one's character and open one's mind."
Shen Yuean refuted seriously, “I have been copying scriptures for so many years, and my temperament has not changed. I am as smart as ever. It can be seen that copying scriptures is just a bluff. It is useless except for wasting my hands.”
Princess Huai'an was left speechless.
"Pfft!" Amber couldn't help laughing, "Second Miss Shen, I think it's getting late, let's go!"
She was afraid that if she continued, the princess would get angry and something bad would happen to her.
As soon as the group arrived at the gate, they ran into Murong Jue, Xue Mao and others who were coming back.
Shen Yuean immediately hid behind Princess Huai'an, stuck out her tongue and made faces at Murong Jue.
Murong Jue didn't even look at her, and respectfully saluted Princess Huai'an, "Mother, I have prepared some things, which are just right as a gift for meeting you."
Shen Yuean poked her head out curiously, and her mischievous look made people love and hate her.
Princess Huai'an teased her deliberately and let Amber take it without asking any questions.
Shen Yuean got on the carriage, and after a while she couldn't hold it in any longer, so she took the initiative to ask, "Auntie, what did Brother Jue give you? Is it fun?"
Princess Huai'an glanced at her, feeling tired for her son. "Girl, why are you still thinking about this? How did your brother Jue teach you the rules over the years?"
Shen Yuean shrugged and told Murong Jue everything about how he abused her, no! How he trained her.
"Brother Jue found two maids for me. In front of them, my rules were impeccable and perfect, so perfect that they could not find any fault with them. The two maids felt ashamed and resigned on their own initiative.
I won't have to pretend anymore once Mammy's gone!"
Princess Huai'an and Amber looked at each other in total disbelief!
Princess Huai'an said earnestly: "Now that you have learned the rules, you must keep them in mind at all times. Even if there are no outsiders present, you must strictly restrain yourself."
Shen Yuean sighed like a little adult, "But if that's the case, life would be too boring! My mother said that everyone is a human being for the first time, and it is true that we should be flexible and adaptable within a reasonable range and make ourselves live comfortably!
I don’t have any big ambitions, so there’s no point in learning those rules! It’s good enough now.”
These words really shocked Princess Huai'an and Amber.
The two became more and more curious about Shen Yuean.
The carriage slowly stopped outside the Shen Mansion.
The doorman had been waiting here long ago, and when he saw the carriage approaching, he immediately went in to report.
Su Tai brought Shen Yuezhang out to receive them.
Unexpectedly, the first person to get off the carriage was Shen Yuean.
The mother and daughter were overjoyed.
"An'er!"
"younger sister!"
Shen Yuean threw herself into Su Tai's arms like a bird out of a cage, hugged her tightly, then hugged Shen Yuezhang and closed her eyes greedily.
Shen Yuezhang patted her head lovingly, and when he saw Princess Huai'an getting off the carriage, he hurriedly said, "The guests are here, let's go in and talk first, okay?"
Shen Yuean obediently let go of Shen Yuezhang.
Su Tai hurried forward to greet Princess Huai'an, "Meet Madam Xue."
Princess Huai'an gently supported Su Tai and said with a smile, "It's the coldest time of the year, and I have to trouble Madam Shen to come out and receive you personally."
"This is what we should do! Madam Xue, please!"
The group entered the Chuihua Gate, walked through the corridor, and entered the main courtyard.
The charcoal stove had already been lit in the room, and the maids placed the snacks that had been prepared in advance one by one.
Su Tai said warmly, "Madam Xue has come from afar, so please have some hot milk tea to warm yourself up. These are the snacks that General Xue and his son like to eat. Madam Xue, please try some too."
Princess Huai'an readily picked up a piece of sausage bread and looked at it carefully. "What is this?"
There are no such snacks in the imperial capital.
Su Tai hurriedly introduced: "This is sausage bread, which is salty, and cheese bread and cake, both of which are sweet. Madam Xue can try which one suits your taste better."
With these snacks, the two of them got along much better.
Although the Shen family is not well-known, they have a lot of novel things, from food to tableware to clothes, and even the decorations in the house are very special.
Princess Huai'an looked at everything and it was as if she had opened the door to a new world.
Looking back, he saw that Su Tai, her mother and her two daughters all had fair and delicate skin, so he praised them casually.
Su Tai immediately took out her skin care products.
When it comes to maintaining one's appearance, a woman's status and identity are nothing.
Soon Princess Huai'an got together with Su Tai to study skin care tips.
The Royal Family has their own secret method of maintaining skin, and Su Tai has a cheating tool to assist.
This conversation lasted for most of the day, and it was not until the maid came over to ask for instructions that they realized that half a day had passed.
Princess Huai'an felt so rude for the first time, and stood up to say goodbye, "It's getting late, we should go back!"
Just as Su Tai was about to speak to persuade her to stay, Shen Yuean started crying pitifully, "Aunt, can you stay a little longer? Can you have dinner at my house? I haven't eaten my mother's cooking for a long time!"
"This..." Princess Huai'an touched Shen Yue'an's head distressedly, "Auntie asked you to stay at home for two days, and then I will come to pick you up, okay?"
Shen Yuean's eyes lit up, but then they wilted again, "No, I can't stay at home overnight without Master's permission. If you go back now, Master will send someone over soon, and I will be punished."
The little girl sniffed pitifully.
Su Tai immediately followed up and persuaded, "Mrs. Xue, you should stay for dinner! I will cook some new food for you."
Shen Yuezhang hugged Shen Yuean lovingly, his face full of reluctance.
When Princess Huai'an saw the situation, she felt it was difficult for her to insist on leaving and had to agree to stay.
Shen Yuean burst into laughter instantly.
Su Tai asked the two sisters to talk to the guests and went to the kitchen alone.
Princess Huai'an looked at the well-behaved Shen Yuezhang, then looked at Shen Yuean, who felt like there were needles pricking her butt, and laughed: "You sisters have completely different personalities."
Shen Yuezhang feigned anger and reprimanded Shen Yuean, defending Shen Yuean, "Sister likes to move and doesn't like to be quiet. She has been lively since she was a child. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Madam."
Princess Huai'an chuckled and shook her head. "I've been with this girl these past few days and I know her pretty well. I don't need to cover up for her. What about you? What do you like?"
Shen Yuezhang's fair face turned slightly red, a little embarrassed, but only for a moment, and he regained his composure in a moment, "Junior usually likes to read books, occasionally write and draw, and tinker with business, these are all ordinary hobbies, not worth mentioning."
"No! My sister's calligraphy is so beautiful! Her paintings are also very lifelike. She also runs Qingfengzhai very well and makes a lot of money every day! Aunt, wait, I will show you the little portrait my sister drew for me." Shen Yuean ran to the backyard excitedly, and Shen Yuezhang couldn't stop her at that speed. (End of this chapter)
