My old husband who can read minds

Chapter 9 The young lady with full power
A few days after the Shen family's third party, the Qin family also ushered in a happy event.

Miss Qin Er's future husband's family went to the government to formally appoint her and agreed on a wedding date.

Qin Minjun was the second daughter of the second wife, and she was engaged to the eldest son of the Zhao family, the son of the prince.

The second master, Qin Che, was appointed Taichang Shaoqing from the fifth rank, and the prince's sacrificial wine was from the fourth rank. The two families were well matched.

Marquis Wenxin Qin Yan and his second wife and son entertained the male guests in Liuying Hall, while the female relatives gathered in Qingzhixie in the backyard.

Today, Uncle Qin's family, who lived next door to the Hou Mansion, also came. In addition to his two daughters-in-law, his great-aunt Qi was accompanied by a strange girl.

The girl's surname was Qi Mingrui. She was sixteen years old. She was the granddaughter of Qi's brother and had just come to Beijing from Dengzhou.

She was born with a weak will, and her cat-like eyes looked at people shyly and timidly, which could easily arouse the pity of others.

When Shen Yuan looked at the other person curiously, his eyes happened to meet with that woman's.

She smiled weakly at herself, and the words "little white flower" suddenly appeared in Shen Yuan's mind.

But today's protagonist is Qin Minjun. Shen Yuan didn't take it seriously to a foreigner he met for the first time.

When the banquet was over and the guests were seeing off, Mrs. Qi suddenly brought Qi Rui to Shen Yuan and said something thought-provoking.

"Grandniece-in-law, you and Rui'er are about the same age and have similar temperaments. It's her first time coming to Beijing. You two sisters will be very close in the future."

Shen Yuan glanced at Qi Rui for a few times and suddenly smiled.

"Grandma, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. I have to take care of the house on weekdays, so I'm afraid I won't have time to play with Miss Qi. Kuang Sun's daughter-in-law is a boring little married woman, how can I let Sister Qi, a Yunying The unmarried girl and I hang out together all day long, so there should be no misunderstanding."

As for what the misunderstanding was, under Shen Yuan's eyes that seemed to see through everything, Qi's cheek was thick and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

She sneered twice, not forgetting to make amends for herself.

"It's just that I didn't think carefully. I originally thought that since you are all direct cousins, walking around more on weekdays can enhance our relationship and save Rui'er from being alone in Beijing."

Shen Yuan smiled meaningfully, "Auntie, you have five sisters in your family who are about the same age as Miss Qi. Even the sisters-in-law in my house can accompany Miss Qi as landlords, so how can she be lonely? ? My granddaughter-in-law just thinks that the little girl and her family will have more talk when they play together, what do you think?"

Mrs. Qi looked unhappy and flicked the veil coldly.

"My grand-niece is so arrogant. As an elder, I just said something kindly. If you don't like it, that's all. Do you need to be aggressive? Which junior would be so ignorant of etiquette like you?"

Shen Yuan knew that she had been disrespected and felt unhappy, so she resorted to the elders' tricks and tried to use her power to overwhelm others.

She would not coddle the other person and just sneer back.

"Whether it's a good intention or an ulterior motive, you know it for yourself, grandma, and my granddaughter-in-law won't argue with you."

Who do you think is a fool?Just now, he and Qi Rui kept playing nice and sweet in front of the old lady and Princess Hetai. They were both in front of and behind the scenes. Unknowingly, they thought that Miss Qi was the prince's wife.

After that, he no longer struggled with Qi, but looked at Qi Rui who was blushing with shame and at a loss.

"Miss Qi, you are welcome to visit my house often."

The last word "being a guest" is particularly important.

The meaning of Shen Yuan's words was very clear. You are just a guest. If you want to be more than a guest, then don't blame me for not welcoming you.

Qi Rui's beautiful eyes were full of tears and she couldn't let go. She bit her lip and refused to answer, looking pitiful as if she had been bullied.

Mrs. Qi on the side couldn't stand it any longer, so she took her grandniece and walked out angrily, not forgetting to sow discord as she walked.

"Rui'er, this Marquis Mansion is a big temple, so I'm afraid it won't welcome poor relatives like us. I don't know when our old Qin family's Marquis Mansion changed its surname to Shen, and now it is controlled by a grandson's married daughter-in-law. Do you end up being domineering?" This directly pushed Shen Yuan to the opposite side of the old lady and Princess Hetai. After all, these two are the public mistresses of the Hou Mansion. When Qi said this, she really meant it. Can be punished.

Shen Yuan laughed in anger, and instead of talking to Qi, he focused his firepower on Qi Rui.

"Miss Qi, don't leave in a hurry, and don't just cry too much. The misunderstanding between my great-aunt and I was all caused by you. At least you, the client, should come out and say a few words."

As if she was afraid that the other party wouldn't hear, Shen Yuan suddenly raised her voice and said: "My great-aunt said that Miss Qi, you want to be my sister, but I don't know what kind of sister you want to be with me? Why don't you say it clearly to Miss Qi face to face, so as to save me the trouble?" If you and your aunt have different understandings and misunderstandings, it would not be beautiful. Don't you think so?"

Facing the teasing, disdainful, probing, and sneering looks from everyone in the Qin family, Qi Rui could no longer bear the embarrassment, covered her face and ran away crying in shame and anger.

Mrs. Qi cursed and chased after her. She was afraid that her grandniece would do something bad and could no longer care about confronting Shen Yuan.

"Cut, spicy chicken."

Shen Yuan thought to himself, stroking his untidy hair, and suddenly felt refreshed.

She didn't want to ruin her character, but she was really bothered by these secret prying and overt attempts recently.

She hoped that she could get away with one punch this time, so that she would not be hit by hundreds of punches, otherwise it would be endless.

At this time, Princess Hetai, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, came forward.

"Yuan'er is so majestic just now. I thought you had a temper like dough and couldn't stand up. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to hold up in the future. It seems I was overly worried."

Faced with her mother-in-law's teasing, Shen Yuan immediately chickened out.

"My daughter-in-law is not usually like this, but today she was very angry with my great-aunt. She thought everyone else was a fool, so she brought everyone in front of her daughter-in-law to show off her power. If she doesn't show off her power, I'm afraid my daughter-in-law will be bullied to death in the future. ”

Princess Hetai nodded noncommittally, "I also know that many people have been gossiping behind your back recently about the issue of your heir. Now that you are making such a fuss, even if you kill the chicken to scare the monkey, you will be cleared for the time being, but your reputation for being jealous and fierce is afraid. It’s about to spread.”

Shen Yuan frowned and pretended to be helpless and said: "Whoever has hair wants to be bald. My daughter-in-law is forced to do this. Fame is for outsiders to see, but her life is her own. My daughter-in-law doesn't want to make others happy." And wronged myself.”

As soon as he changed his words, he calmly flattered his mother-in-law.

"Who wouldn't want to be like my mother? For so many years, my father has only had you by his side, with no concubines and no common room. There is no woman in the capital who has a happier life than you."

Princess Hetai looked at her with a half-smile, "If you can be like me, then why not let me live a happy life at your whim?"

Shen Yuan's eyebrows jumped and she couldn't help but feel happy. She just flattered her unintentionally, but there was an unexpected surprise.

"My daughter-in-law understands. If she can't do it, she is useless and no one else."

She understood the tone of her mother-in-law's words. If she had the ability to hold Qin He in her arms and not add more people to Minglan Courtyard, then Princess Hetai would not interfere with their private affairs as husband and wife.

Although Shen Yuan doesn't mind Qin He having three wives and four concubines in the future, if she can live a pure life as a monogamous couple, she certainly hopes that she can live a more relaxed and faster life.

"Grandma Bo is not a light-hearted person. She is afraid that she will follow the path of the old lady. I will not interfere in this matter. You can handle matters in the courtyard by yourself. Be careful and don't hurt the relationship between relatives."

Princess Hetai made a final comment and left with a smile on her face.

Since Mrs. Shen has shown her talent today, let her see what her daughter-in-law can do.

I didn't expect that a person who used to be like dough would have such a strong side. It turns out that a rabbit bites people when it gets anxious.

Princess Hetai is in a good mood. The house has been quiet for too long, and it is rare to have fun.

Shen Yuan was being treated as a joke...

I thank you!
