Shen Mingshu touched the hairpin on her head as if to show off, and said shyly: "It's nothing. I just saw His Highness Prince Yu, and His Highness said he would catch a rabbit for me to raise. Sister, you also know that I have never raised a rabbit, and I don't know about rabbits. Is it easy to make a living?"
Du Shi heard the obvious provocation in her words and was about to scold her when she was stopped by Shen Moran.
"It should be easy to raise. Rabbits eat grass. My sister will prepare more grass when the time comes to make a nest for the rabbits. My sister has not yet been married, but His Highness Prince Yu is so interested in my sister. My sister is so lucky!"
Shen Mingshu listened to her sour words and felt proud.
Shen Moran raised her eyebrows and said, "I wonder if Princess Yu is here today? I met her on the street a few days ago. I heard that she seems to be pregnant. If she can win a man at one stroke, His Royal Highness Prince Yu will have a successor."
Shen Mingshu's face instantly darkened, and she couldn't hide her surprise. Why didn't she know that Bao Wanyu was pregnant?
Now Shen Mingshu can't hide her thoughts and shows everything she thinks on her face. She is no match for her at all.
"Didn't His Highness Prince Yu tell my sister?" Shen Moran asked knowingly, "That's right. Princess Yu is the royal concubine after all. She is less than three months pregnant and the fetus is not firmly seated. Naturally, it is difficult to publicize it to the outside world. My sister will marry her in the future, but You must serve your mistress well and don't lose your father's face."
She deliberately looked around the field and said in an upbeat tone, "I didn't see Princess Yu, and that's right. Such an occasion is not conducive to miscarriage. It seems that His Highness Prince Yu feels very sorry for Princess Yu!"
Shen Mingshu went from being happy to gnashing her teeth. She didn't hate Zhou Yu for deceiving him, but wanted to take her anger out on Shen Moran.
"Sister, are you jealous when you say this? Are you jealous that His Highness Prince Yu gave me a rabbit? Are you jealous that His Highness is interested in me?"
Shen Moran was about to laugh to death at her mindless remarks. She held Bu Yao on her temples and said contemptuously: "Why should I be jealous? My husband doesn't even have a concubine in his house. I I'll give you whatever you want. I can wear whatever jewelry is in the warehouse, but a pair of pearl hairpins made of poor quality can make my sister treat me like a treasure, and a rabbit can make my sister feel pampered?"
"Is it because Aunt Shen was too harsh on her sister when she was in charge and didn't buy her any decent jewelry?"
The eyelids are so shallow!
"You..." Shen Mingshu couldn't show off but was scolded, and said to Mrs. Du aggrievedly, "Mother, Mingshu is also my mother's daughter. How could you let your sister humiliate me like this?"
There were a lot of people around, but they didn't speak loudly. Others could only see their movements and expressions, but couldn't hear what they said.
Shen Mingshu deliberately increased the volume of her last words so that the people around her could hear them but not hear them clearly.
The tears in his eyes were rolling around, looking aggrieved.
She wants to create the illusion of being teased by her aunt in front of outsiders, so as to win more chips for herself.
Mrs. Du has lived in seclusion these years and has never interfered with the affairs of the family, just to keep things clean, but she won't really let her control her.
"I can't stand the sound of your mother. Aunt Shen has been in charge of the house for more than ten years, but she has never come to the main courtyard to ask for greetings. You have never recognized me as a mother. After Aunt Shen died of illness, you fawned over Pei, the housekeeper, all day long. Auntie, if it weren’t for today’s occasion and it’s inconvenient for me as Aunt Pei to attend, would you recognize me as your mother?”
"Besides, what's wrong with what Princess Zhan said? You always show off how kind His Royal Highness Prince Yu is to you. What are you sarcastically saying? Are you bullying my son into marrying a sick man? You can't ride a horse to hunt rabbits for my son?"
Before the Du family fell, they had also been on the battlefield, and the Du family had a bloody spirit in their bones.
"A little concubine dares to step on my aunt's nose to ask for an explanation. Do you think I'm too talkative?"
As soon as he said this, there was silence all around. The ladies who stretched their necks to watch the excitement looked away in embarrassment, pretending not to hear.
Shen Panxing is a person who is unknown in the officialdom. However, at the age of forty, he is the prime minister who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people. He is not lacking in scheming and skill. However, everyone has heard about what happened in his inner house. He is the matron of the house. Du Shi was ill in bed, and his aunt was in charge of the middle school.
A typical example of doting on concubines and destroying wives.
When Aunt Shen was still alive, Shen Mingshu was even more popular than Shen Moran. Everyone in the capital knew that the second young lady of the Shen family was cute and charming, but no one knew how good the eldest lady was.
Why does Shen Mingshu only have a reputation for being cute and cute? In fact, apart from her appearance, Shen Mingshu has nothing else to offer.
"Even so, Mrs. Shen shouldn't let the little girl lose face in public. Isn't this bullying the young?"
There really were people meddling in other people's business. Shen Moran looked up and saw that the person meddling in other people's business was none other than Shen Jianxing's nemesis, Mr. Bao Ge's wife Wan!
Although Mrs. Wan looked down on Shen Mingshu, she was happy to take this opportunity to overpower Du.
Du Shi is in good health, but the more she thinks about it, the more she realizes that she had suffered a lot in the past, and she shouldn't have endured it!
"Mrs. Bao is an elder. It is said that Mrs. Bao can take care of my Ming Shu's business."
Shen Mingshu will marry Zhou Yu in the next spring as a concubine, and make a living under the hands of the main concubine Bao Wanyu. Bao Wanyu is the granddaughter of the Wan family, Zhou Yu is her grandson-in-law, and the concubine in the grandson-in-law's house... really can Get involved with her!
But if she really took care of Shen Mingshu's affairs, she would be the one to talk about it.
As an elder, she has no respect for herself even if she has to take care of things in her grandson-in-law’s room!
Wan's face tightened, but she had already spoken. If she stopped there, it would be a joke to others.
"I don't mean anything else. I just feel sorry for the little girl. Mrs. Shen's words and deeds represent the face of the prime minister. It is right to educate children, but you should teach them behind closed doors. Don't let everyone see the joke."
What does Shen Panxing's joke have to do with her?
Mrs. Du doesn't care how other people laugh at the Prime Minister.
"Mrs. Bao taught her a lesson, but I also taught her a lesson in public so that she would remember it well. Otherwise, if she marries into Prince Yu's palace in the future, she will still be disrespectful, act as she pleases, and dare to disgrace his legitimate wife in public. When the time comes, let her Princess Yu is embarrassed."
Wan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but she couldn't refute it. This was what Du said. It was her fault that she was only looking at the joke and forgot to consider this aspect!
Shen Mingshu was born in the prime minister's palace, and with such an identity, even the princess could not do anything to her.
Moreover, the Shen family is a model of pampering concubines and destroying wives. How can Shen Mingshu's character be any better?
Du Shi accepted it as soon as he saw the opportunity, and did not forget to recruit her again.
"As my aunt, I don't have much authority in the house, and she may not be able to listen to my lectures. Since Mrs. Bao has opened her mouth to support Ming Shu, Ming Shu, why don't you thank Mrs. Bao for her generosity?"
Wan was almost choked to death, and left with a cold face and rolled up her sleeves.
Zhou Zhan, who had heard all this, coughed lightly and realized that his princess's temperament, personality and perspective were all learned from her mother-in-law!
But Mrs. Du is upright and has the demeanor of a female general.
How come her princess had such a delicate heart and a thousand faces, and she was so used to showing weakness to others, inserting needles at every opportunity, and scheming people without others knowing how she got into it?
