She didn't understand any profound principles. She only knew that a son was the foundation of a woman's life, and she only hoped that her granddaughter could have a son by her side.
Shen Yuezhang nodded obediently.
Wan added, "Also, you must be diligent and respectful. Respect your mother-in-law but don't let her bully you. If you are really wronged, go to your parents. The child is your support. You must learn from Mo Chunxiang and not act recklessly."
Su Tai raised her eyebrows, somewhat puzzled, "Aunt, why did you mention Mo Chunxiang out of nowhere?"
Wan thought that Su Tai had been busy packing her luggage in Shenjiazhuang during this period and probably didn't know much about what was happening outside, so she told her about what happened in Ximen Village.
"Mo Chunxiang had remarried a hunter in the mountains a long time ago. She ran away without telling anyone and suffered dozens of days in the Xiong family. In the end, she was found by her husband and taken back.
When Mo Laotian found out about his daughter's situation, he was furious and the funeral was hastily done. Everyone said that Mo Dali was heartbroken. Without Mo Laotian, Mo Chunxiang was deserted by everyone and no one knew what would happen to her in the future! "
Su Tai was speechless after listening to this, thinking that Mo Chunxiang was really courting death. She used to resent them because she didn't marry Chen Yi and live a good life. Now that her own son has turned over a new leaf, she can't even enjoy the blessing of her own son. It's true that if you don't believe in fate, nothing will work.
Han talked to them for a while, then turned around and asked Su Chunlin to bring the box over and handed it to Su Tai. "This is the dowry I prepared for Yue Zhang. Open it when Yue Zhang gets married."
Ruan Xiaoyu and Shen Xiang also brought over the things they had prepared.
Adding the gifts from Wan, Su Yu, Su Yan and others, all the things filled three large boxes.
Seeing that it was almost done, Su Tai ordered the caravan to set off immediately.
As soon as the team left Lizhou, they met Murong Jue's troops. The twins were also in the team. The two children rode on tall horses. Even when they were serious, they looked quite imposing.
Su Tai was overjoyed when she saw it clearly.
After the two sides reunited, Murong Jue stepped forward and explained: "Mother-in-law, I will escort you to the imperial capital with Cong Yu and Yue An."
As he spoke, he looked into the car through the curtain and saw only Shen Yuezhang's quiet profile.
Su Tai moved subconsciously, blocking his view.
Murong Jue withdrew his gaze and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Su Tai asked in confusion, "Don't we need people at the coal mine? You have to escort us to the imperial capital and come back, and then go back when we get married? Isn't that a hassle?"
Murong Jue laughed and shook his head, "Mother-in-law is worrying too much. I asked Xue Mao and Xue Xiang to stay here and watch over us. With them here, it doesn't matter if I'm away for a few months. This is Xue You, a close confidant of mine. If you encounter any problems in the imperial capital, you can ask him for help."
Su Tai and Xue You greeted them and then looked at the twins happily.
"An'er, come sit in the car!"
Shen Yuean decisively rejected Su Tai's invitation, "Mom, I want to ride a horse to protect your sister, you can just take the carriage, go!"
Shen Yuean walked briskly, and Su Tai looked at Shen Congyu.
Shen Congyu was so shocked that his eyes widened. "Mom, I must ride a horse! I'll talk to you nicely later!"
Su Tai: “.”
She just wanted to ask him if he wanted to eat something, but since he didn't appreciate it, she wouldn't say anything.
Soon, the carriage was filled with the strong aroma of cream and tea.
The twins smelled the scent and looked at each other.
Shen Congyu couldn't help but come to Su Tai's carriage, "Mom, did you eat cake with your elder sister?"
Su Tai took a sip of tea and sighed comfortably, "Let's talk about this after the carriage stops. You should protect mother and elder sister well. I have confidence in you."
Shen Congyu lifted a rock to hit his own feet, pouting in grievance, "Mom, don't bully me like this! I am your precious son!"
Su Tai sneered, "Who was it that just now rejected me with such solemn promise? You left before I even said a word. You can't regret it now, otherwise, mother will look down on you!"
Shen Congyu felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.
At this moment, Shen Yuean also came, "Mom, give me something to eat! I have no bones, and I'm hungry and thirsty."
Xue You looked sideways in surprise.
I saw an oil-paper bag and a cowhide water bag handed out from the carriage.
Shen Yuean took it without hesitation, but she didn't expect that the next moment, a slender hand handed out an exquisite ceramic cup.
Shen Yuezhang said crisply: "You drink this, and give that to them."
Shen Yuean understood, and without reaching out her hand, she just lowered her head and let Shen Yuezhang feed her.
After drinking a cup, she was still not satisfied. She caught a glimpse of Murong Jue staring at her. She became more and more proud and shouted loudly: "Sister, I want more, feed me!"
Shen Congyu on the side also jumped up and down, "I want one too, I want one too."
Murong Jue couldn't bear it any longer and stepped forward to grab Shen Congyu by the collar.
Shen Yuean quickly handed over the oil paper bag and water bag in her hand, "Brother-in-law, please show mercy!"
"For me?" Murong Jue raised his eyebrows and glanced at the carriage.
Shen Yuean nodded wildly, "We are all family, it doesn't matter who you give it to! Brother-in-law, try it, the tea my sister brews is delicious!"
"Thank you, Auntie, and thank you, Miss Shen."
Murong Jue thanked him and took Su Tai along with him.
Shen Yuezhang in the carriage blushed and muttered softly: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been soft-hearted!"
She took the initiative to pass food to her younger siblings because she felt sorry for them. Her original intention was to pamper them, but she ended up making them feel extremely embarrassed. She was really mad.
Su Tai also felt that her youngest daughter was being disrespectful. When Shen Yuean shamelessly came over and asked for food, no one gave her anything.
She wilted instantly.
Shen Yuezhang was soft-hearted after all, and finally fed her two cups of tea and a cake, which made Shen Congyu very envious.
The mother and her sons put on a show every day. Murong Jue hung out with them for a few days, mastered the routine, and would occasionally join in.
In this way, I didn’t feel tired while traveling.
When they came to their senses, they were already ten miles outside the imperial capital.
From here on, Su Tai and his group separated from the caravan.
After the caravan entered the city, Murong Jue escorted them out.
The carriage arrived at the city gate, and before entering the city, it saw the carriage of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion waiting on the side.
The housekeeper and several servants and maids hurried forward to pay their respects.
"My humble servant greets my lady. My lady, you have worked hard on the journey. Please follow me."
Su Tai lifted the curtain of the carriage, wanting to let Murong Jue go first, but Murong Jue spoke first, "Mother-in-law, it won't be too late for me to take you to Yong'an Marquis' Mansion."
Seeing his firm attitude, Su Tai could no longer refuse.
Before the group arrived at the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, the major families received the news.
Princess Qingkang angrily smashed the cup and said, "At the beginning, the Queen Mother intended to let Furong marry Murong Jue, but he was very cold and reluctant. Now he is so attentive and considerate to the Shen family, who has no background. It is clearly a slap in the face of my Zhao family!"
If Zhao Furong hadn't died, Murong Jue would have been her son-in-law. Now that her son-in-law was gone, it would have been fine, but he had become the son-in-law of the Shen family. She had not forgotten Shen Congrong, who indirectly killed her daughter.
The maid hurried in and reported carefully, "Princess, Princess Qingfeng is here" (End of this chapter)
