Su Shunci frowned as she listened to Su Yihui's words. She tilted her head and whispered to Su Qingyu, "Big sister, why do I feel like she has bad intentions?"
Su Qingyu agreed with this and spoke with a smile after thinking about it.
"Third sister, don't just focus on praising your brother-in-law. If we talk about being considerate, then it has to be your brother-in-law. Although he has many concubines in his house, I heard that he is very generous to his concubines and will help them with anything their families need."
Su Yihui was choked and speechless. Su Qingyu openly praised Zhao Ji, but in fact she was saying that Zhao Ji had many concubines.
Feeling unwilling, she was about to say a few more words when the housekeeper came in to report, "Old Madam, Third Master Shen and Prince Zhao of the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion have left the court and come to pay their respects to you."
Upon hearing this, Hai stood up and said, "Mother, I'll take my two cousins-in-law and my niece to the back for some shelter."
The old lady raised her hand to stop him. "No need. We are all family. There is no need to be so particular today. Besides, we will be celebrating the birthday later, so we have to meet each other, right?"
Hai felt that something was wrong, but since the old lady said so, she couldn't forcefully drag the person to the back, so she had to step aside.
Su Qingyu understood what the old lady meant. Both of her granddaughters were married into wealthy families. If she didn't show off now, when would she?
Shen Zhixiu and Zhao Ji walked in side by side and paid their respects to the old lady as her grandson-in-law.
Seeing that there were elders present, they introduced each other and greeted each other.
Su Yihui gently touched Gu Jinlan and signaled her with her eyes to look at Shen Zhixiu.
"This is my eldest sister's husband, the current Lord Shen."
Gu Jinlan raised his eyes cautiously and looked at Shen Zhixiu in the direction of Su Yihui's gaze.
"So young? Didn't they say that my cousin married someone very old?"
The man before him was tall and slender, with clear and refined features. His every gesture exuded a noble air that was not commonplace. No matter how you looked at him, he didn't look old at all.
Su Yihui glanced at Gu Jinlan's dazed expression and smiled with satisfaction.
In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, "For a person like this, even if you become his concubine, it would be a blessing earned in eight lifetimes."
Gu Jinlan nodded subconsciously, her face flushed and her heart beating fast.
