Chapter 146 Yuanchun's Gift

It is true that it is neither victory nor defeat. Back then, Shen Shinan had the support of the Zhang family and successfully ascended to the throne and inherited the title of the Shen family.

But in the end, everything was ruined because of Zhang's selfishness.

The emperor was almost furious, but fortunately, Prince Shuirong of Beijing had made military achievements, and Prince Teng was also promoted, so the situation was not too unfavorable.

Yuanchun also went out to visit the palace and brought her rewards to the Jia and Wang families.

Of course this time even the Lin family is involved.

A'jiao Shen looked at the gifts sent by the palace maids: a necklace of agate and coral, a set of tourmaline bracelet rings, four kinds of sachets, four silk scrolls, and a set of four treasures for the bedroom.

For a moment, Shen Ajiao didn't understand Yuanchun's meaning. Why did she send them gifts? It was only the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and the New Year hadn't even ended yet. Why was she so anxious to say that the Lin family was in the same boat with her?

Lin Daiyu took a look at the things and said, "First, send the things to the warehouse, and then go and find out what the Jia family and the Wang family have sent."

"What did you do after you received the item?"

Shen Ajiao raised her thumb, still having to rely on Lin Daiyu.

Not long after, the inquirer came back with a report, "The things sent by the Jia family and the Wang family are almost the same, and the things sent by the girls and boys are also almost the same."

Shen Ajiao was stunned. "Almost?"

The servant who inquired about the news nodded affirmatively, "The Jia family is setting off firecrackers to celebrate. We don't need to ask what gifts were sent from the palace. The maids will tell us everything. It sounds almost the same as ours, except that Master Bao has an extra toy in his hand, and Miss Xichun has an agate and coral necklace. There is no tourmaline jewelry, just an ordinary green jade handbag."

"The brothers and sisters in the Wang family also gave similar gifts."

When Shen A-Jiao heard this, she was shocked. What kind of relationship do they have? Why are they giving similar gifts?

If the relationship is good, no one will say anything. If the relationship is not good, why give these to us?

Hint her? Warn her?

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Daiyu was roasting chestnuts on the fire, watching them pop one after another. "What does it have to do with me?"

"What's up, Mrs. Guan?"

[You are ruthless and you are heartless! ]

[My sincerity has been wasted, wuwuwu]

"I'm thinking about you, too." Shen Ajiao held her chin and looked at Lin Daiyu roasting chestnuts. "The Jia family is used to making trouble."

Lin Daiyu burst into laughter and said, "Madam, you should think about what to eat for dinner."

"What could she possibly do? The gift from the palace, although it was said to be her gift, was in fact from the Imperial Household Department. How could the Emperor and the Retired Emperor not know about the Imperial Household Department's affairs?"

"Instead of worrying about this, why don't we try to figure out what the emperor means."

"Or maybe that's what our Majesty thinks."

[Of course, kill everyone. ]

Lin Daiyu: So, what's there to worry about?

Shen Ajiao and Lin Daiyu smiled at each other and continued to roast chestnuts.

But things did not go as planned. Shen Ajiao did not want to cause trouble, but trouble came to her.

Look, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, Madam Wang came to visit.

He looked superior and didn't say a word when he saw Shen Ajiao.

Shen Ajiao glanced at Lin Daiyu, who smiled and bowed slightly, "Mrs. Jia."

【Well done! 】

Then Shen Ajiao waited for Madam Wang to come up and greet her, but Madam Wang ignored her and nodded calmly, "Mrs. Lin."

"Hey, who is this?" Shen Ajiao looked at Lin Daiyu with a look of "Why don't I know her?"

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Madam, have you forgotten? This is the mother of Concubine Jia in the palace."

"Princess Jia?"

Shen Ajiao suddenly understood and nodded, "But who was the one whose fate was revoked years ago?"

Lin Daiyu smiled and nodded, and Shen Ajiao exclaimed in surprise, "So that's how it is."

"I was wondering how the wife of an official could be so ignorant of etiquette. It turns out I misunderstood!"

"It's just a pity. The last time I saw Granny Liu, she was so good that there was nothing to say. Isn't it the same for people in the village?"

"Mrs. Jia should study hard."

"How can you disregard Concubine Jia's dignity because of some trivial matters?"

Mrs. Wang's face turned pale, and a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes. What she hated most now was that others said she was a murderer.

This Shen A-jiao mocked her for being from the countryside, but how could she be more noble than her? Just wait and see, she will get her comeback sooner or later.

The hand in the sleeve pinched the palm, and bent slightly, "Mrs. Lin."

Shen Ajiao nodded and sat at the head of the table. "Hurry up and serve tea to Mrs. Jia."

Mrs. Wang was even more angry. She thought, "You should give face to the Buddha instead of the monk. Her daughter is the queen in the palace, and you are not treating her like this."

"Mrs. Lin, you're too polite."

Shen Ajiao, "I wonder if Mrs. Jia has something to do this time?"

Mrs. Wang sorted out her thoughts and then spoke, "Isn't this the New Year? The Queen in the Palace sent gifts, and you saw it. Not only our family, but your family also has gifts."

"According to etiquette, we have to go to the palace to thank En. I thought since we all know each other, why don't we go together?"

A-Jiao Shen spat in her heart, who wants to be with you.

"Your Majesty is pregnant and has a lot of things to do. If we stay together, you will have a companion and you will have more time to rest."

Shen Ajiao smiled and said, "Mrs. Jia, why don't you stay with the Wang family? That way you can be a companion."

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "I have already greeted you and agreed to deliver the invitation together. Now I need Mrs. Lin."

"Hahaha, what a coincidence, Mrs. Jia, I'm sorry I can't go with you, our grandfather has already sent a letter."

Don't I want to go with you? If I go with you, you won't mess with me?

Yuanchun was pregnant and stood in front of her and said her stomach hurt. Where could she complain?

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "That's perfect, let's go together."

Shen Ajiao looked at Madam Wang's eyes and knew that she was really here to mess with her.

"Oh, I also want to be with Mrs. Jia, but your current status..." After looking you up and down, I felt a little embarrassed. It's not that I look down on your current status, but we are really not the same.

"Even if we go on the same day, we may not be together, so it would be a bit disappointing then."

[What a shameless toad climbing a tree]

I'm reminding you, don't blame me for not giving you face when the time comes.

When Mrs. Wang heard what Shen Ajiao said, she wanted to kill Shen Ajiao with a thousand knives. This person actually mocked her identity and looked down on her!

What is the basis for her to look down on her? She has a daughter who is very competitive. What else does she have? She still relies on Lin Ruhai!

There was no point in talking to someone who didn't agree. Mrs. Wang was ridiculed by Shen Ajiao from head to toe. She could no longer sit still, so she stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, she said with a fake smile, "See you later."

Shen Ajiao replied without any pain or itch, "Okay."

Who is afraid of whom?
