Today is the day to celebrate the fourth house's relocation, and Shen Wan suppressed the sorrow of parting that rose in her heart.
Soon, guests began to arrive one after another to offer their congratulations. Since Shen Wan was pregnant, she did not need to help greet the guests. She could simply sit there and greet the noble ladies and young women who came to offer their congratulations.
Many ministers came today to present housewarming gifts. The Fourth Master had only been promoted to the position of Director of the Arsenal for a few months, and it was at Xie Jingyan's recommendation that he was promoted. His new residence was right next to the Pingyang Marquis's mansion, which showed that he had a deep relationship with the Shen brothers. Even if they didn't give the Fourth Master face, they still had to give Shen Jing face and come to congratulate him in person. Besides, the Fourth Master also had the heir of the Duke of Wei as his prospective son-in-law.
The housewarming banquet was a joyous and lively affair. Fourth Madam never dreamed that the fourth branch of the family would have such a glorious day, and her smile never faded.
After the housewarming banquet, the Fourth Master and Fourth Madam saw the guests off. Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan and the others had mostly left before heading towards the main gate. When the Fourth Madam saw Shen Wan, her eyes were full of gratitude. "It must have been hard for you to come even though you're pregnant. You must be exhausted. You must get some rest when you get back."
Shen Wan nodded, "Fourth Aunt didn't overwork herself."
The fourth wife has indeed been exhausted these past few days, but thankfully everything is done and she can finally get some rest.
Xie Jingyan helped Chen Wan into the carriage, and then he climbed in himself. The Fourth Master and Fourth Madam watched the carriage drive away and disappear from sight.
Inside the carriage, Xie Jingyan, as usual, held Shen Wan in his arms and asked, "Are you tired?"
Shen Wan rubbed her face and said, "I'm not tired, just my cheeks are a little sore."
Xie Jingyan looked at her and asked with concern, "Why is your cheek sore? What were you chewing?"
Shen Wan said awkwardly, "I sat there and talked quite a bit."
Xie Jingyan's forehead creased with annoyance as he raised his hand to rub Shen Wan's cheek.
After massaging the left side, massage the right side.
It feels incredibly comfortable.
The carriage sped forward, then suddenly stopped.
Shen Wan asked, "Why did you stop?"
Chen Feng's voice followed, "Sir, someone is blocking the way."
Xie Jingyan lifted the carriage curtain and saw a masked man on horseback blocking their way.
