But no one knows what the prince said to the empress, but the empress actually relented and granted her the position of concubine, and even sent her to check on her.
To be honest, Granny Wang quite admired Shen Jinshu. She was gentle and generous, had a certain ambition, and came from a decent family. It wouldn't be a bad idea for her to become a concubine of the prince.
However, the other people in the Marquis's mansion were really not presentable.
Shen Ru had no idea what Wang Mama was thinking. She was still immersed in the joy of the upcoming marriage between the Marquis's mansion and the Prince of Li, and her words inevitably carried a hint of smugness.
If the Imperial Concubine didn't value Shu'er as her daughter-in-law, why would she send her trusted nanny in person? Their marriage is practically a done deal.
In the future, she will be Princess Li's aunt.
"So it's Granny Wang. It seems my eldest sister's wish will soon come true." Song Zhiyu ignored Shen Ru and looked at Shen Jinshu with a smile on her lips.
Even after that incident, Consort Cheng was still able to accept Shen Jinshu, which was something she hadn't expected.
But accepting it doesn't necessarily mean she'll like Shen Jinshu, her future daughter-in-law; otherwise, it wouldn't just be a nanny coming.
Shen Jinshu's expression froze, and he almost lost his smile, his shoulders trembling slightly.
Song Zhiyu knew perfectly well that what she had always coveted was the position of Princess Consort, but now she could only be subordinate to someone else and become a useless concubine, yet she still ruthlessly reopened her wounds.
"Second sister needs to hurry too." Shen Jinshu forced a smile, her words a cryptic expression that no one else could understand.
If the Crown Prince truly loved Song Zhiyu, why hadn't he asked the Emperor for a marriage decree for so long?
Instead of wasting time mocking her, Song Zhiyu should focus on getting her under control and securing tangible benefits.
"No need for you to worry, elder sister." Song Zhiyu smiled back, not sparing Shen Ru even a glance.
Shen Ru had never been treated like this before, and she didn't care about being laughed at by Granny Wang. She pointed at Song Zhiyu's back and angrily cursed, "She has no respect for her elders. No wonder my elder brother doesn't like her as his daughter."
If she looked down on Song Zhiyu at first, she now despises him.
Feeling ashamed, Shen Jinshu secretly gave Shen Jinhua a look, signaling her to get the person away.
Seeing this, Shen Jinhua immediately smiled and stepped forward to take Shen Ru's arm. "Aunt, you have been away from the capital for many years, so you probably don't know about the changes in the capital. The jade in the Treasure Pavilion is famous for its beauty and preciousness. Shall I take you to have a look?"
"Treasure Pavilion?" Shen Ru's eyes lit up. Even though she was far away in Liangzhou, she had heard of the Treasure Pavilion, but she had never had the chance to see it. Now that Shen Jinhua had mentioned it, she was instantly interested and forgot about Song Zhiyu.
Shen Ru nodded reservedly, "Okay, let's go take a look. It'll be a good opportunity to choose a birthday gift for Mother."
