After being a widow, the empress dowager was favored by the powerful ministers

Chapter 109 Isn't this second body of the Sheng family a fool?
Although Pei Wan usually has a straightforward temper and speaks straightforwardly, she is also extremely polite when she meets the elders of her friends, "So it's the Second Madam Sheng."

"Wan'er is being polite."

The second aunt of the Sheng family looked at Pei Wan's demeanor and demeanor as a lady, much better than the concubine girls she usually saw in the Sheng family. The eldest girl of the Pei family is dignified and generous, seeing her today, she is indeed not a false rumor."

She smiled and said to Sheng Baodai, "Baodai, you have to learn more from your elder sister Pei, please ask me a thing or two."

"Miss Pei, if you have time, you can teach us Baodai."

The maid next to Pei Wan looked at the calculating face of the second aunt of the Sheng family, but secretly said in her heart, do you want to learn from her eldest daughter who doesn't use dirty words when swearing?
That can be taught.

Pei Wan smiled faintly, "I don't dare. If it's about learning, the empress dowager is what people want. Sister Sheng and the empress dowager are sisters, so they can learn more. I would like to ask you a question or two. How can I get the chance?" What about me teaching Sister Sheng?"

What's the matter if the queen mother on the top of her head doesn't ask for advice, but comes to ask a court daughter of her own.

Could this second aunt of the Sheng family be a fool?
Pei Wan thought about this in her heart, and when she looked at the second aunt of the Sheng family, her eyes changed, and she thought to herself, this Sheng family is interesting.

Obviously they are all one family, but everyone is different, there is Sheng Gong, there is Sheng Lang, there is that grand man, there is Sheng Baoling, there is Sheng Baodai, everyone has their temper.

Now there is this second aunt of the Sheng family.

She found it strange to look at it, because the Pei family didn't have such two-bedroom and three-bedroom families, and she really rarely saw them on weekdays.

But seeing so many people in the Sheng family, she still thinks that Sheng Baoling is the best, with a good temper, good looks, easy to talk, and being close makes people feel comfortable.

Just thinking about it, Sheng Baodai wanted to enter the palace soon, since she hadn't seen the Queen Mother for a long time, she really had some thoughts in her heart.

Sheng Baodai was a little happy when she saw Pei Wan, but now she was upset by what her mother said.

Originally, she and Pei Wan were just joking and talking about daily life, but now such a few words were inserted, as if she and Pei Wan were all for Pei Wan's family background these days, leaving the big sister in the palace alone. Ask for advice, ask Pei Wan for advice.

If the eldest sister knew about this, it would be so chilling.

Last time at home, when the elder sister returned home, everyone was cold to the elder sister, but only the elder brother was still the same as before.

They are all from my own family, but they handle things like this, every time Sheng Baodai thinks about it, she feels panicked.

The eldest brother was in the mansion that day, and he quarreled with the uncle twice, and it is still cold to this day. According to people in the mansion, the quarrel was really fierce. To this day, neither father nor son have said a word.

If the old men in the court know about this matter, they don't know how to talk about the eldest brother, and they may even be accused of unfilial piety.

But she felt that the uncle was really unkind in this matter, and the elder brother was right.

"Mother, I still have something to say with Sister Pei, why don't you go in first?" Sheng Baodai said.

Pei Wan also nodded slightly, holding hands with Sheng Baodai.

The second aunt of the Sheng family is most happy to see Sheng Baodai interacting with the female relatives of these high-ranking officials' families at this moment.

When she walked back, Sheng Baodai and Pei Wan walked in slowly.

Pei Wan thoughtfully, "Your mother doesn't seem to like the Empress Dowager very much?"

Sheng Baodai frowned, "I don't know, she was very enthusiastic in the past. When talking about big sister, my mother also loves her. She treats big sister better than me sometimes."

"I don't know what's the matter now, but when she mentions big sister, she gets upset."

Hearing what Sheng Baodai said, and thinking about the second aunt of the Sheng family's reaction just now, and what she said, Pei Wan had a faint guess in her heart, maybe it was because of Sheng Baodai's failure to enter the palace that she blamed Sheng Baoling for this matter.

But when she mentioned Sheng Baoling, she thought of Sheng Baoling's younger brother, Sheng Lang who looked exactly like Sheng Baoling, "By the way, why didn't your cousin come today?"

Sheng Baodai thought Pei Wan was talking about Sheng Gong, and blinked, "Here we come, we'll be here in a while."

Big sister's birthday, how could big brother not come.

When Sheng Baodai heard that Sheng Lang was coming, he immediately felt a sense of crisis in his heart. On this occasion, elder brother must not have too much interaction with Sheng Lang. If others see something, they should make more guesses Well, maybe there will be rumors about my brother's broken sleeves circulating in Bianjing tomorrow.

Pei Zuoxiang was nearly thirty years old but never married, just because he fell in love with the young son of the Sheng family.

If this rumor spreads, it will be fine.

I'm afraid that if parents find out, they will never return to Beijing in this life.

Pei Wan, who was well aware of the temperament and temperament of the Pei family and his wife, thought to herself, but what kept turning in her mind was the scene she saw outside the incense room last time...

They all kissed each other, and if they said that these two people are fine, they would not believe it.

Pei Wan sighed slightly.

Sheng Baodai heard this sigh.

Sheng Baodai patted Pei Wan's shoulder and asked, "What's the matter, are you sighing?"

Pei Wan shook her head, "It's okay, let's go in quickly."

"Ah."

...

The people around entered the palace and all went to the banquet. Sheng Baodai and Pei Wan, led by the palace staff, first went to the Hall of Compassion and Ning, and met Sheng Baoling.

Sheng Baoling happened to have a little day today, rested on the couch for a while, drank a bowl of ginger soup, now his body warmed up, his complexion improved a little, but he still had some abdominal pain.

They are all women, so they naturally know what's going on.

Sheng Baodai's face was full of worry, "Is the big sister a child?"

Jian Jia responded, "Your Majesty woke up this morning with a stomach ache. Last month it didn't hurt very much, but this month it started to hurt again."

While talking, Qiuyi fetched Mrs. Tang who was newly filled with water. On the other side, Sheng Baoling had already dressed better, and walked out with the help of the palace servants.

Pei Wan saw that Sheng Baoling's face was a bit ugly, and she was worried immediately, "It's better to rest for a while, when I came just now, there were not many people, so I'm not in a hurry to go."

It's still early, so it's okay to rest for a while and think about it.

Sheng Baoling shook his head, "It's okay."

The originally bright red lips were a little pale now.

Seeing this, Jian Jia helped Sheng Baoling to sit down, took out the lip balm again, and put on some more. She also wanted to put on some powder to make her face look better, but Qiu Yi stopped her.

Seeing Qiuyi shaking his head, Jian Jia didn't continue, knowing what Qiuyi meant.

If he looked bad, he could have left the banquet earlier on the grounds that he was unwell. If he just stayed at the banquet like this, it would be really uncomfortable.

After all, today's banquet is the empress's birthday, so she had to show up.
