"My dear, why do you have to do this? I didn't ask any more questions. I'm also a victim. As the second child in the family, you don't know the hardships involved. Naturally, I would think more than my elder brothers. Alas! I thought that after I got married, someone would understand me!"
At this point, one naturally has to say that it is a last resort, and at the same time one has to divert the blame elsewhere!
"My mother took a fancy to the three of you, but she didn't specify which one of you would be married to whom. I... I fell in love with you at first sight and was the first to express my feelings!"
The implication is self-evident.
A pair of eyes looked at Guan Xiaoyu with affection.
Shen Lao Er is worthy of being the second in command.
Very good at manipulating people's hearts!
He noticed at a glance that Guan Xiaoyu looked awkward. Judging from the way she had teased the cat just now, she was the type of person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
As expected, after he said this, Guan Xiaoyu's expression eased a lot.
He immediately took advantage of the situation and went forward to hold Guan Xiaoyu's hand, "My dear, I know you are kind-hearted and can't bear to make things difficult for me. Let's go back to the room and I will apologize to you!"
Shen Lao Er finally coaxed his wife, and the two of them went back to their room hand in hand. When they passed by Shen Lao San's yard, they heard laughter coming from inside.
Shen Laoer's teeth are hard!
Little did he know that the third brother’s wife, Zhang Xinyue, although having a quick temper, was also easy to coax!
Old Third Shen is a cheerful person who dares to think and do what he wants.
He caught up with Zhang Xinyue in the yard. Seeing that she ignored him, he picked her up like a princess and refused to let go no matter how she pinched him until they entered the house.
Then, he held Zhang Xinyue's face and kissed her!
Zhang Xinyue had been in a relationship before she traveled through time. Every time she had a quarrel with her ex-boyfriend, he would treat her coldly, and after a while, the relationship became boring.
She wasn't really angry, she was just pretending.
Now, this Old Third Shen was so shameless that he kept hugging and kissing her, and she was amused in a short while.
Two people were fighting in the house!
The three couples returned to their rooms and naturally stayed together for a long time until the servants came to tell them that it was time for dinner!
Dinner was naturally prepared by the servants in the kitchen. It was so delicious that the people who hadn't eaten at noon started drooling just by smelling it from afar.
When the three young masters and young ladies of the Shen family arrived at the dining hall, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen were already seated.
In addition to the six people at the dining table, there were four more seats.
After the six of them had taken their seats, two people dressed as ladies and two people dressed as girls came up from among the people waiting nearby and sat down below them.
The two ladies were concubines in the mansion, and the two girls were their respective daughters.
At noon, the three brides cooked, and naturally only Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen and their respective husbands could enjoy it. The concubines and younger generations were not qualified.
Dinner at this time is a reunion dinner for the whole family to have together.
Before starting to eat, Mrs. Shen introduced the three brides.
She pointed to the woman next to Zhang Xinyue and said, "This is Aunt Zhao, and next to her is my eldest sister Ruonan."
Aunt Zhao was dressed in a moon-white dress, which was very simple. When she saw the three young ladies looking at her, she smiled timidly and looked submissive.
Then, Madam Shen pointed to the woman next to Guan Xiaoyu and said, "This is Aunt Sun, and next to her is my second sister Zhaodi."
Aunt Sun was wearing brighter clothes and even put on some makeup. When she saw everyone looking at her, she smiled coquettishly and said, "Madam, you have good taste. All three daughters-in-law are so pretty. They must all be capable. You will enjoy a good life in the future!"
It can be seen that she is a bit favored by Mr. Shen, but she is not convinced by Mrs. Shen.
The news of what happened to the lunch at noon had already spread throughout the mansion. The three young ladies were not good at cooking at all, but they still forced themselves to pretend to cook a table full of unpalatable food.
At this moment, she said that the lady had good taste and chose a capable daughter-in-law!
Isn't this a slap in the face?
Mrs. Shen's face immediately turned dark!
Liu Wanyun saw everything and secretly laughed in her heart.
Being a wife in ancient times was not easy. You had to manage a whole family and fight with your husband's concubines!
However, what she was thinking at the moment was that with Aunt Sun as the conspicuous guest at this dinner, the three of them should be able to have a good meal.
It is said that one should not strike a smiling person. Aunt Sun complimented her with a smile, and Madam Shen was not likely to get angry, but she quickly adjusted her mood and, with the airs of a lady, ordered, "The three young ladies are new to our house and don't know the etiquette of dining in our house. Aunt Sun, you will demonstrate tonight and serve me and the master for dinner!"
The smile on Aunt Sun's face immediately disappeared, and she looked at Master Shen frequently.
Although she was a concubine, there were younger generations present at the time, and she was at least half an elder. But she was asked to stand and serve. How embarrassing!
Besides, this is a meal. If you stand and wait on them, you can't eat together. You can only wait until they finish eating and then eat the leftovers. How disgusting!
But Mr. Shen didn't meet her eyes!
I sighed in my heart, what a troublesome person! He had to ask for trouble!
It is normal for a concubine to serve the mistress, and since it is the first day that the new bride comes to the house, Mr. Shen naturally does not dare to break the rules.
Aunt Sun had no choice but to stand up from her seat reluctantly and walk to Madam Shen's side to serve her.
Her daughter Zhaodi didn't dare to say a word. She just sat there silently with red eyes.
"Let's eat!"
Following Mr. Shen's call, everyone picked up their chopsticks.
Liu Wanyun stared at the meat on the table, her eyes sparkling, but she didn't dare to pick up the meat with her chopsticks.
She didn't know what the etiquette was for dining in the Shen Mansion, so she could only wait and see.
Seeing that she didn't move, Guan Xiaoyu and Zhang Xinyue also didn't move.
Aunt Sun picked up three pieces of food for each of Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen. After they picked up their chopsticks, the other members of the Shen family started to pick up the food.
But everyone only takes what is in front of them.
Zhang Xinyue looked at the plate of vegetables in front of her and had no appetite at all.
She wants to eat the braised pork in the middle!
She nudged Shen Lao San with her elbow. Shen Lao San was gnawing on some spareribs and turned to look at her. "What's wrong, my lady?"
The sound was so loud that everyone at the table looked at them.
Zhang Xinyue could only look embarrassed and said nothing. She lowered her head and picked up a piece of vegetable in front of her.
However, she put the food in the bowl but didn't eat it. She just kept poking at it!
Finally, Shen Lao San realized something was wrong. He turned sideways and asked Zhang Xinyue, "Madam, do you want to eat some meat? Which one do you want? Your husband will pick it up for you!"
Everyone looked over again, but Zhang Xinyue glared at him and ignored him.
Old Third Shen was very considerate. He picked up two pieces of meat and vegetables from the table and gave them to Zhang Xinyue with his chopsticks.
Boss Shen and Second Boss Shen belatedly glanced at the woman next to them and saw desire in each other's eyes.
They all followed Shen Lao San's example and picked up a bowl for their wives.
Mrs. Shen, who was sitting upstairs, was unhappy. "It has always been women who serve their husbands at meals, but you three are so good that you actually let your husbands pick up food for you?"
