Mrs. Shen's 70th birthday, the whole family is very cautious. Shan Banyan and Shen Jingshu have discussed who to invite, and they have posted posts one after another. They have prepared gifts. On the day of Mrs. Shen's birthday, come There are quite a lot of people.
Old Madam Shen looked at these people, many of them were close friends of her own, and some of them came here because of the face of Prince Duan's Mansion. They were very good to Old Madam Shen. Early in the morning, the juniors celebrated their birthdays and gave gifts one after another. , Shen Wenhua gave warm jade, Shan Banyan gave Buddhist beads, Shen Jingshu gave her own shoes, and Shen Jingya gave Mrs. Shen a set of clothes full of blessings...
Everyone's presents are full of heart, Mrs. Shen accepted them with a smile, "You guys, I just said that there is no need to trouble, why did everyone prepare gifts?"
"Mother, your birthday is only once a year, how can you be hasty? Mother, the guests are all here, mother is waiting here, let's go to welcome the guests."
"Okay, daughter-in-law, you are heavy now, you should pay attention to yourself."
"Don't worry, mother, I'll go and see for a while, and I'll pay attention to rest." I'm going to give birth soon, although walking more is good for delivery, but with such a big belly, walking is also very hard.
"well!"
…
Many people came today, Princess Duan also received the invitation, the two families will be in-laws in the future, although people of high status have reservations about Princess Duan, but this superficial modesty is still needed.
Princess Duan came not too early or too late, and immediately went to see Mrs. Shen, "Madam, I don't know what to give for your birthday today. The prince got a few night pearls a few days ago, I think it's not bad. I hope the old lady likes it!" After Princess Duan finished speaking, the person beside her came over with a very delicate box, and the box alone knew that the value of the contents inside was illegal, and when the box was opened, the inside was the size of two fists Ye Mingzhu
"This night pearl is really big!"
"It's as big as a fist, and it looks great. The princess is really generous!"
…
There were some exclamations from the crowd, such a big luminous pearl is rare, and now everyone saw it, wouldn't they be surprised
It is said that Prince Duan's mansion is rich, and it is indeed true. This move by Princess Duan is a good thing!
Many people looked at the luminous pearl in the box and felt that the Shen family had really burnt the incense for eight lifetimes, otherwise how could there be such good luck
The crowd was a little bit embarrassed, Princess Duan had always been sitting dignifiedly, and Mrs. Shen looked at the Ye Mingzhu with some surprise in her eyes, "Princess, this is too precious."
"Old Madam, please don't be polite to me. We will soon be a family. Don't talk about two families, as long as the old Madam likes it."
"Of course I like it." She smiled, today is her birthday, and someone gave her a big gift, which is also a respect for her. But Duan Wangfei has been through this for a while, if she really cares about it, maybe it would be better to send some other thoughtful things, but...
Knowing in her heart, Mrs. Shen didn't say anything, and continued to greet other people. Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Princess Duan didn't stay long, she went directly to talk to Shan Banyan, and also had an intimate conversation with Shen Jingshu, trying to let everyone see her friendly intentions.
Shen Jingshu greeted Princess Duan a few times, and then left on the grounds that she was very busy. Mrs. Shen is a birthday star, and Shan Banyan has a big belly. Now, only Shen Jingshu can receive her. Duan Wang Shizi looked at Shen Jingshu like this, and felt a little distressed, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately, I'm not tired. It's just that meeting some people I don't like very much and listening to them talk makes me feel a little uncomfortable." Now that she has become Princess Duan, there are some who fawn on her, and there are naturally those who are jealous and dissatisfied. But Shen Jingshu didn't care, she just wanted to be with Prince Duan and protect their happiness.
"If you really don't like it, just ignore it. Anyway, such a person is not worth getting along with."
"I know, you can do whatever you want, I still have someone to say hello to!"
"Okay, be careful!"
Busy greeting guests, Shen Jingshu couldn't get away today, and Shen Jingya rarely showed up today, but she tried to sit as much as possible, and she was extremely careful when walking, so as not to let others see the fact that she was limping. She just watched Shen Jingshu bustling around, enjoying everyone's compliments, and Shen Jingya felt more and more uncomfortable. Finally, seeing that Shen Jingshu was too busy to find a way out, Shen Jingya found a reason and slipped away quietly. went to the kitchen.
She knew that Shen Jingshu was very careful in her daily life, and it was not a simple matter for her to prescribe medicine to Shen Jingshu. These days, she is also tempting in every possible way. She goes to the kitchen to cook food every day, also to confuse the public. There are so many people today, and taking advantage of the hustle and bustle of the kitchen, Shen Jingya has already found a chance to strike.
Quietly changed clothes, Shen Jingya hid in the kitchen, these days she has been paying attention to observe the kitchen, and is very clear about the responsibilities of each master, so she quickly found the maid who made tea, and watched her make tea , Shen Jingya waited patiently. When the other party finished making the tea and took it out, Shen Jingya managed to distract the other party halfway, then put the medicine in a cup, and made a mark, and then quickly It's gone soon.
When she returned to the hall again, the maid who brought the tea had already passed by with the tea, Shen Jingya followed carefully, and was always careful not to let others drink the tea. She was sure that the tea was for Shen Jingshu, so she was relieved.
Seeing the maid brought the tea, Shen Jingya finally felt relieved when she saw Shen Jingshu brought the tea and drank it. At this moment, a maid came over with tea and handed it to Shen Jingya. After working for a long time, Shen Jingya was indeed thirsty, so she drank it right away.
After drinking the tea, Shen Jingya felt much more comfortable. She could see herself wearing a wedding dress to marry Prince Duan, and her parents also returned to the capital because of her marriage. Bian, underestimated, has been suppressed by their second wife, and the Shen family has returned to their hands. All of this is so beautiful that it is unreal.
Xu completed the task, Shen Jingya was always in a good mood, but she obediently stayed by Mrs. Shen's side, and did not dare to walk around, so as not to let others see that her legs were not right. She has always been with Mrs. Shen like this, and she has met many nobles, not to mention, and gained a good reputation, but occasionally listening to some wives' words, she just feels a little uncomfortable.
"This, is Miss Shen Er? She looks very dignified!"
"Hehe, this kid has been sensible since he was a child, and he's about to reach maturity soon. Please come and sit down when the time comes!"
"It's easy to say! Second Miss Shen is engaged?"
"The child is still young, and I also want to wait until she is older before talking about it. It will be too late soon, and I will take it easy when the time comes."
"What I'm talking about is, what I'm talking about is that it's good to take a look at someone like Second Miss Shen slowly." Although the mouth is full of praise, everyone knows that Second Master Shen is white now, and Shen Jingya is just because she is in Shen At present, old Mrs. Shen values her and has some status, but if she wants to marry into a wealthy family, it is not an easy task.
"Hehe, I'm also making a fuss."
"Hehe, Mrs. Shen really has a heart!"
…
At first, Shen Jingya didn't feel anything, but as she listened slowly, she began to sense the smell. I dare say that Mrs. Shen is also planning to show her a favor today!
But she is the one who wants to marry the prince, how can she marry these people? Where are these people worthy of themselves
She felt a little displeased in her heart, if she hadn't worried about offending Mrs. Shen, she would have nothing by then, Shen Jingya would have wished to leave immediately. At the moment, I can only laugh with him, and sit reluctantly, hoping that this matter can be resolved soon.
Forget it, anyway, she will be able to replace Shen Jingshu and marry the eldest son soon, so she can bear it!
The whole day was in a good mood, Xu saw hope, everything Shen Jingya saw today was extremely pleasing to the eye, and the smile on her face continued throughout the day, when it was time for the banquet, she took the initiative to sit in the seat of Shen Jingya Looking at Shen Jingshu, she looked like a winner, "Sister, are you tired today? Would you like some tea to quench your thirst?"
"No need, I'm not tired." With a smile, Shen Jingshu shook her head and didn't say anything. She just waited for the banquet to start, and when the dishes were served, Mrs. Shen said some words of thanks, and Shen Jingshu slowly Eat slowly, during which Shen Jingya always persuaded her to eat this and that, Shen Jingshu replied patiently, eat what she likes, and don't eat what she doesn't like. It was funny for a while.
Shen Jingshu, Shen Jingshu, even if you don't believe me, so what if you don't eat what I give you? You have calculated everything, but you underestimated me, how could I be so stupid, if I really wanted to give you something to eat, would I personally deliver it to you? Isn't it time for others to catch the handle
These days make you proud, when the time comes, I want to see why you are crying.
The two sisters acted like sisters in front of outsiders. Shen Jingya was extremely kind to Shen Jingshu, and Shen Jingshu was also smiling. The banquet was very lively. When everyone left, Princess Duan Pulling Shen Jingshu and talking for a while, "I saw you today, I really wish I could marry you in as soon as possible."
"Princess, this..." Lowering her head, Shen Jingshu's face was flushed red, she was really embarrassed.
"Hehe, okay, I was joking, but I am also in a hurry. These days, Shizi always doesn't come home, and I don't know where he went. When he came back, he smelled of powder, and I was also worried about Shizi learning. Bad, I want you to pass the door earlier, so that the prince can take care of you, don't mind." He took Shen Jingshu's hand, saying it was caring, but why did it sound uncomfortable
"Princess..." The head lowered even lower, but a little bit of sadness and jealousy flashed across Shen Jingshu's face, and she quickly lowered her head, expressing it just right. Prince Duan also sighed when he saw it , "Hey, look at what I said, the son is so old, some needs are inevitable. But it will be fine when you marry, the son is a sense of proportion, and he will treat you well in the future, take it easy." Speech A little annoyed, Prince Duan looked at Shen Jingshu like this, a little embarrassed, "Miss Shen, don't be angry."
"Princess, how could it be? I know that you are doing it for my own good."
"Well, well, I'm leaving."
"Princess, go slowly!" After the concubine left, Shen Jingshu immediately raised her head, looking at the direction in which the concubine disappeared, with a worried expression on her face.
…
The guests are all gone, Mrs. Shen is really tired after dealing with it all day, so she simply let everyone go, "Okay, you are also tired all day, go to bed earlier."
"Mother, then you too, rest early, we will come to see you tomorrow!"
"Okay, let's go, let's leave it to the servants to clean up."
"Grandmother, I'll help you go back!" Smiling, she walked over to support Mrs. Shen. Shen Jingya took great care of Mrs. Shen today and stayed by Mrs. Shen's side all the time. She didn't say much. Looking at Shen Jingya like this, she is also extremely satisfied, "Okay, okay, let's go!"
"Grandma, be careful on the road!"
"Well, let's go back!" He smiled and left. Today's birthday banquet was attended by so many people, but there were many more people than before. Mrs. Shen felt happy and drank a few glasses. She was a little drunk at the moment, very Go back and pack up and fall asleep.
Only Shen Jingya, after going back, thinking about her actions today, there is nothing wrong with it after careful consideration, Shen Jingya lay on the bed and couldn't sleep for a long time.
The man said that the medicine would not react immediately, so that people would not notice it, and that was fine. There are so many people today, just giving her a chance, and then she will just have to watch Shen Jingshu get unlucky.
Just how long are these few days? She couldn't wait any longer.
After being unable to fall asleep for a long time, Shen Jingshu went back, and Chunye immediately asked everyone to leave. Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Jingshu asked, "Is everything done?"
"It's done, miss. The servant saw that the second lady put a bag of things into the tea for the eldest lady. The servant changed it when the second lady left, and the second lady drank the tea herself."
"Well, we'll just see the effect when the time comes."
"Miss, where did Miss Er get this thing?"
"Have you found out what I asked you to investigate? She went to the temple that day, but there were other people?"
"A lot of people went there that day, but there was nothing suspicious about it. I asked several people, and learned that there was a lady who went there that day wearing a veil, so she couldn't see her face clearly. Miss, do you think it might be she?"
"It's possible. Have you found out the identity of that person?"
"The man didn't reveal his identity, and he didn't stay for long, so the servants really couldn't ask. Miss, this..."
"Forget it, it's not your fault. Since the other party wants to do this, they will definitely not be noticed. You have tried your best." Looking at Shen Jingya's recent actions, it seems to be full of loopholes, but they are only diverting her attention. It's just a line of sight, and he deliberately slaps around. It seems that the person in the dark is also a difficult character.
But who
Shen Jingshu recalled the people in Kyoto, she only recognized me as the only person who had a grudge against her, so...
"By the way, go and check, where is the Zhuangzi Mo Yingying went to?" Suddenly remembered the hatred that Mo Yingying occasionally projected, if the person behind it was Mo Yingying, Shen Jingshu would also believe it.
"Miss, you suspect..." What kind of enmity does this Miss Mo have with their young lady
"I'm just skeptical, everything will wait until the result."
"Yes, miss!" The results can be imagined, the village where Mo Yingying lives is very close to the temple where Shen Jingya went, and Shen Jingshu asked people to investigate further, Mo Yingying happened to go out that day, It seems that it was because of a bad mood that I went to the temple, and then everything made sense.
"Miss, what should we do now?" When the Zhuangzi where Mo Yingying lived was found out, the maids wanted to rush over and beat Mo Yingying up.
What's the matter with this Mo Yingying, their lady didn't offend her, why is she always tripping their lady like this
"Wait and see." What does this Mo Yingying want to feed herself? Shen Jingshu didn't see the effect, so she had to see Shen Jingya's reaction.
"Then Miss Mo, what are you going to do, Miss?" This Mo Yingying had caused Shen Jingshu a lot of trouble before, and now that she was like this herself, why did she still cause trouble for their young lady
"She's not in a hurry. Let's wait and see Jingya's reaction."
"Okay, miss." The maids hated both Shen Jingya and Mo Yingying to death at the moment, and they wished to rectify them. Although Shen Jingshu didn't let them move, Shen Jingya's behavior these days The food was either salty or bland. Shen Jingya lost her temper a few times. When Mrs. Shen saw it, she felt that Shen Jingya was a little ignorant. Later, Shen Jingya couldn't say anything, and she was even more angry with Shen Jingshu in her heart. It was unlucky to see Shen Jingshu earlier.
Thinking of this, Shen Jingya felt better. Although these days were not going well, she felt relieved thinking about the bright future.
So she waited and waited, hoping that Shen Jingshu would be unlucky sooner. Then she would watch the joke and take over from Shen Jingshu, but she didn't expect that one day passed, two days passed, three days and four days passed, and Shen Jingshu's side There was no reaction, but she felt that something was wrong with her stomach.
At the beginning, Shen Jingya just felt a pain in her stomach, and she thought it was her little day coming. So she didn't care about it, and then she started to bleed, although the day was a bit wrong, but she just thought it was her own little day, so she just took good care of it. But I didn't expect that after a few days, the little days were not less, but more, and her stomach hurt more and more. Shen Jingya felt that something was wrong, but she was too embarrassed to find a doctor about this matter, so she could only bear it and know When she woke up one morning, she felt exhausted, as if all the strength in her body had been drained, and she didn't even have the strength to move.
When the maids entered the door, they were frightened immediately, "Ah, blood!"
