Su Ming Lang felt wronged as he put down his hands. He heard that this was Old Shen Furen's birthday banquet, which was Shen Miao's grandmother's birthday banquet. Thinking that he had not seen Shen Miao in Guang Wen Tang for such a long time, he was very concerned. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to see Shen Miao but who knew that Shen Miao did not even show her face today. Hearing that Shen Miao had a rash and could not casually meet others, Su Ming Lang's heart was itching and wanted to see Shen Miao. He had very few friends and others despised him for his stupidity. Only Shen Miao treated him gently and in his heart, Shen Miao was already his only friend.
Outside at the female side of the banquet, Jiang Furen laughed and jeered, "Speaking of which, Huang Furen and Wei Furen, shouldn't you all specially toast Old Furen with a cup of wine? After all …"
After all, in the future they would be in-laws.
These words were not said out but all the Furens at the banquet were well aware of it. Huang Furen was a noble Furen with exquisite makeup and only smiled when she heard it. One could not tell what she was feeling. Most likely she was well aware that this marriage was just taking what one needed and was not considered a good marriage. If the Shen family really doted on their daughter, they would be so righteous and would not agree to this marriage. The so called bright and noble was just an act on the surface. Thus there was some ridicule in their eyes.
It was Wei Furen who was somewhat uncomfortable. The Shen family was indeed a good family and climbing up to the Shen family was considered climbing up a high branch but the previous Shen Miao was too stupid and could not be the matriarch of the household. Afterwards after the academy examinations, she went around and heard that Shen Miao seemed to be enlightened and her temperament was much more calm. Then she went to propose for her son.
But who knew that she did not see Shen Miao today and heard that Shen Miao had a rash. Wei Furen was somewhat worried that if Shen Miao contracted a nasty disease, it would ruin her son's life. Thinking of these, her face revealed an unwilling expression.
When these expressions fell into Chen Rou Qiu's eyes, Chen Rou Qiu sneered a few times in her heart. She was not a fool and could see that Ren Wan Yun had the idea of exchanging sisters' marriages. Old Shen Furen and Ren Wan Yun could hide it from others but they could not hide it from her, Chen Rou Qiu. However this was a good thing for her. Ren Wan Yun was in a mess from her worries and did not know how Shen Xin would fly into a rage when he returned. At that time, the First and Second Branches will be fighting and each of them will be injured. Her Yue 'er will be able to stand out from the crowd.
Ren Wan Yun smiled as she stood up, "Since that is the case, then I should first toast both Furens with a cup."
Everyone's laughter became louder and Feng An Ning frowned as she looked somewhat unhappy.
At the other end of the ancestral hall, after sending away all the maids, Shen Miao knelt in front of the memorial tablet in the ancestral hall and looked at the hourglass in her hands. The sand had almost leaked out and the time that she had arranged with her was almost up.
She inserted the three sticks of incense into the niche and bowed gently.
However, at this moment, he heard a slight noise.
In her previous lifetime, in the Qin country for a few years, she had developed the habit of being extremely vigilant no matter what. Shen Miao suddenly stood up and said, "Who?"
"Little girl, your senses are quite sharp." A familiar voice sounded. Shen Miao turned her head and saw that purple clad youth leaning against the window, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. Seeing that she was looking at him, he leaped into the ancestral hall.
No matter how calm Shen Miao was, she could not help but be somewhat stunned. Xie Jing Xing actually wandered around other people's residence in broad daylight. Naturally he was not invited over as the Shen family and Xie family's relationship was like walking on thin ice, unless Shen Gui and Shen Wan were crazy.
Now there were guards in the courtyard outside the ancestral hall so how did he enter? Shen Miao accidentally asked out the doubts in her heart.
"The guards of the Shen residence are really useless." Xie Jing Xing said, "I walked over."
