Chapter 161 Which girl
Outside the gate of the Dou Mansion, the carriage of the Shen family stopped, and the wives walked together, followed by the girls.

Seeing another guest coming, a lady-in-law immediately greeted her. After reading the post in Guo's hand, she arranged for two maids to lead everyone into the Duke's mansion.

The stage was set up in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion, and everyone walked through the corridor, walked through several doors, and finally arrived at the backyard.

At the entrance of the backyard, there are other maids here to greet and guide the guests into the courtyard.

It wasn't too early for Shen's family to come, other families had already arrived, Xing family got the news and greeted them from inside.

After ordering the maid who was leading the way, Mrs. Xing personally led the Shen family to the seats arranged for them.

Before she had exchanged a few words with Guo Shi, Cui Shi and others, a servant came to report, saying that there was another guest.

After saying a few words of apology, Mrs. Xing went to greet other guests.

Shen Yunlan and Shen Yunjin sat together, looking around the yard.

The stage is in the center, and the place directly opposite belongs to the owner's house.

Looking to the side, there is already a family sitting. Although I don't know which one it is, but looking at the location, I know that the status will not be low.

The other side is currently empty, and looking to the side, there is another family sitting, also unknown.

Speaking of which, the seat they are sitting in is still good, even if there are people in front of them, it will not affect the performance.

At this moment, the Xing family welcomed the people from Guo's family and Anyang Hou's mansion, and the two families came in together after they reached the door.

Both of their families are related by marriage to the Shen family, so the Xing family made a special arrangement so that the three families are located not far away so that they can talk to each other.

"Did you see the doorway to this seat?" Shen Yunjin leaned over and lowered his voice. When Shen Yunlan's eyes turned around the courtyard, she also looked at it.

Shen Yunlan didn't know people, but she probably knew about them. She hadn't noticed it just now, but when everyone from the Anyang Hou Mansion and the Guo family sat down, she suddenly discovered something.

Although they are not far away and can talk to each other, in fact, the seat arrangement is particular. After Shen Yunjin found out, she used it to test Shen Yunlan.

Hearing the sister's question, Shen Yunlan carefully looked at the distribution of the seats, but she had no clue. She looked at Shen Yunjin suspiciously, and thought about it again.

"It doesn't matter if you don't see it. You don't know some people. I also noticed it just now. I guess it was specially arranged by the Duke's wife."

Lowering their voices, Shen Yunjin and Shen Yunlan explained, "This position has to be viewed from the middle, divided into one left and one right. The family sitting on the left has girls of the right age but not engaged."

"Look at the right side. The family sitting there either has a daughter who is already engaged, or is not of the right age. Although there are many girls who are not of the right age in our family, the eldest sister is of the right age."

"So, our house is on the left, and my aunt and Guo's are on the right."

"If you look carefully, the chairs we sit on are also different. The elders are all the same, but the girls' are not. Look at the big sister's, and the girl in front of us, and then look at the two of us."

After Shen Yunjin's explanation, Shen Yunlan looked carefully again, and sure enough, it was the same as what sister said.

"Look around us, we are blocked by screens. Presumably, when everyone is here, someone will sneak a peek inside."

Shen Yunjin would discover this not only because of her delicate thoughts, but also because in her previous life, she had made such an arrangement when she went to someone's house for a banquet.

"So that's it, that is to say... when we are watching a play, Elder Dou will secretly look inside to pick a wife for himself."

Imagining the scene outside the screen, Shen Yunlan pursed her lips and snickered. After a while, almost all the seats in the courtyard were filled.

It's hot today, if ordinary people arrange it like this, it will definitely be so hot that people can't watch the theater with peace of mind.

But in the end, this is the Duke's Mansion, and it is under the guise of inviting an opera troupe for the eldest princess to make the mansion a lively name, so it naturally needs to be carefully arranged.

Sitting in the seat, even though the sun is shining brightly outside, but there are things covering it, and there are ice cubes everywhere, and someone is fanning in front of you, the courtyard does not feel hot at all.

It was almost time for people to come, Xing went to the back and invited the eldest princess out, and everyone saluted the eldest princess one after another.

Calling everyone to get up, the eldest princess sat down. When everyone was waiting here, she had already quietly looked into the courtyard.

What kind of house looks like, and which girl looks good, she knows it all in her heart.

Now that the Eldest Princess has arrived, the show has officially begun, and all the shows are festive and lively. Even if you don't understand, you can still watch the show.

Shen Yunlan leaned against Shen Yunjin, covered her lips and yawned. She wasn't very interested in watching the theater, as it was in her previous life.

Shen Yunjin watched with relish, noticed the movement beside her, turned her head to look at Shen Yunlan, with a little doting in her eyes.

In the courtyard, everyone was watching the play attentively. Behind the screen, Dou Siqian looked inside through the screen with a helpless face.

This screen is exquisite, if you look from the inside, you can't see people, but if you look in from the outside, you can vaguely see people.

"I've finished watching." Straighting up, Dou Siqian looked at the nanny next to him, who was the person next to Xing, who was specially called to look at Dou Siqian.

"My brother just watched it for a while, and finished it? Don't you want to take a closer look?"

She watched Dou Siqian grow up and loved him in her heart, but choosing a wife is really not a trivial matter.

Seeing that Dou Siqian wanted to leave, Mammy put away the smile on her face and asked seriously.

Seeing her appearance, Dou Siqian swallowed his saliva and had no choice but to continue watching.

He just glanced casually just now, and didn't know who was who, but now he can see that if he doesn't look good, he won't want to leave today.

Seeing him looking in again, Mammy smiled again, since she knew that she couldn't do it unless she looked seriously, so Dou Siqian simply looked seriously.

Although it is only vaguely able to see people clearly, that's pretty good. Dou Siqian looked around and saw Shen Yunlan and Shen Yunjin.

However, now that he is outside and they are inside, it is impossible to say hello.

Seeing Shen Yunlan, Dou Siqian couldn't help but think of Pei Mingjing. When he left, he told himself that if a girl from the Shen family was in trouble, if he could help, he would do so.

"Brother, which girl do you have your eyes on?" seeing Dou Siqian not moving for a long time, Mammy asked.

"Ah, a girl from the Shen family." Dou Siqian didn't quite understand what the nanny asked, he thought that the nanny asked which girl he had seen so far, so he replied subconsciously.

"Miss from the Shen family? Which one from the Shen family?" Mammy asked, Dou Siqian came back to his senses, a little dazed, his eyes shifted from the two sisters to Shen Yunru...

 Eight thousand, the first day of March, let's add an update, I hope everything goes well.

  The screen can't be seen from the inside and can be seen from the outside, it's made up.
