Chapter 9
The full name of Che'er that Zhao Dan'e mentioned was Shen Che, the only male in the general's mansion, born of Aunt Lian in the mansion.

This aunt was originally the wife of one of Shen Ji's lieutenants, and her maiden name was Lian Xiaonu.In the early years, Lian Xiaonu's husband died in a battle to save Shen Ji, and entrusted his wife to Shen Ji before he died.Lian Xiaonu was three months pregnant and married Shen Ji as his concubine, and this posthumous son was Shen Che.Shen Che is not the truth about Shen Ji's birth, only Shen Ji, Zhao Dan'e and Aunt Lian know.

Aunt Lian was very low-key, she lived in secluded places and chanted scriptures in Chunxiao Yuan all day long.Except for the holidays, it seems that there is no such person in the general's mansion.When Shen Ji was in the mansion, he seldom went to Chunxiao Yuan to spend the night.But Shen Che was deeply loved by Shen Ji, and was taken into the army for training when he was just 15 years old.This time he followed Shen Ji to the expedition. He was young but brave and good at fighting, and he began to make his mark in the army.

A month ago, Aunt Lian accompanied the old lady, Shen Ji's mother, to Mount Wutai to worship Buddha and pray for blessings.

At that moment, Shen Yunluo lowered her eyes and said nothing when she heard Zhao Dan'e's refusal to entertain the Seventh Prince, but the twisted Sipa in her hand still revealed the resentment in her heart.She believed that with her beauty, she would definitely be able to impress the Seventh Prince's heart and become his concubine.But if she doesn't invite the Seventh Prince into the residence, where will she have the chance to get close to the Seventh Prince and win his favor?

The proposal was rejected, Aunt Bai was not reconciled, she thought for a while and said: "Madam is right, but the master can't return to the capital in a short time, so naturally he can't thank the Seventh Prince personally. Even if the Seventh Prince doesn't mind, others People in the know will definitely think that the general's mansion is ungrateful. If similar things happen in the future, I'm afraid no one will be willing to help. The master went out to fight for the country to share the worries of the king. Madam came forward to entertain the seventh prince to share the worries of the general. The seventh prince I will be able to understand the difficulties of the General's Mansion, and all the mansions in the capital will only think that Madam knows how to be grateful, behaves generously and decently, is aboveboard, and will not gossip."

Aunt Bai is worthy of being from a scholarly family, even though she is a concubine, she speaks clearly and clearly.If Zhao Dan'e did not entertain the seventh prince as the general's wife, it would seem that she did not know what to do.If he really offended the Seventh Prince and even the royal family behind him because of this, Zhao Dan'e would not be able to explain to Shen Ji, but also severely write down that he is not qualified to be the head of the house.

Zhao Dan'e was not in a hurry to answer, but picked up the teacup on the table, used the lid to remove the tea leaves lying on the water, and brought it to her lips to sip.

Shen Xinmeng was playing with the jadeite double butterfly jade pendant on her waist, her eyes were filled with coldness.When she heard the sound of the tea cup colliding with the table, she cleared her throat, and said first: "In my opinion, it is a little light to thank you for saving your life with only a family banquet. It is better to choose some teas first." Precious things are sent to the Seventh Prince's House in the name of the General's House. After the father returns in triumph, invite the Seventh Prince to the mansion and let the father personally thank you, this is the most complete etiquette."

These words not only took care of the face of the General's Mansion, but also respected the Seventh Prince, making it hard to find reason.If Aunt Bai's mother and daughter continue to entangle, it will appear that they have ulterior motives.Shen Xinmeng watched Aunt Bai's every move from the corner of her eye, and she saw that she was secretly holding down Shen Yunluo.

"So, let's do what Menger said." Zhao Dan'e felt that Xinmeng's idea was the most appropriate, so she immediately ordered someone to summon the butler Shen Fu to implement the matter of sending gifts to the seventh prince's residence.

The matter has been settled, before Shen Fu arrives, Shen Xinmeng bids farewell to Zhao Dan'e.On the way back to Fuyun Courtyard, she suddenly remembered that it was not a good time to enjoy the flowers on the outing, and there happened to be a few peach trees planted in the back garden of the general's mansion, so she took the summer abduction to the back garden, and broke off seven or eight branches. The peach blossoms with half the flowers and buds let Yingxia hug her in her arms.

After walking for a while out of the back garden, a thin middle-aged man in a blue robe turned around from another road in front of him.That person is the housekeeper Shen Fu, who just came out of Feixia Courtyard.He didn't see Shen Xinmeng, and walked hurriedly.

Suddenly, a pink figure stopped in front of Shen Fu, said a few words, handed an object to him, then turned and left.

Even though there was a distance, Shen Xinmeng still recognized that the person was Yanqiu, the maid beside Shen Yunluo.She curled up her mouth and smiled, and quickened her pace to catch up with Shen Fu.

Shen Fu weighed the golden silk box in his hand, shook his head, and was about to leave when another shadow fell in front of his eyes.

"Yanqiu, is there anything else?" When he raised his head and saw the person in front of him clearly, he couldn't help being a little surprised, but soon a flattering smile appeared on his face, "Miss, do you have something to tell the servant?"

"Bring it." Shen Xinmeng stretched out her palm upwards, reaching out to Shen Fu's eyes, and groaned with a smile on her face.

What a beautiful smile!Shen Fu was stunned, and after a while he came back to his senses, only to realize that she was talking about the box in his hand, and hastily offered the box and an exquisitely crafted key with both hands.

Shen Xinmeng inserted the key into the box and twisted it lightly, and the lock opened with a click.When I opened it, there was a piece of exquisite jade pendant in the box, engraved with flying fish and sea waves.She took out the jade pendant, looked at the sun for a moment, and then turned her gaze to Shen Fu.

Shen Fu is a smart person, so he immediately took the initiative to report: "Second Miss' maid, Yanqiu, gave this box to the servant, saying that it was something that the Seventh Prince accidentally left behind when he was saving the Second Miss yesterday, and asked the servant to go to the Seventh Prince's mansion to give a thank you gift. Return it to the Seventh Prince when the time comes."

"Really? Then send it over properly." Shen Xinmeng put the jade pendant back into the box and returned it to Shen Fu, "Go."

Shen Fu bowed and left.Shen Xinmeng looked at his receding back, her eyes gradually turned cold.

Shen Yunluo is really generous, this jade pendant from Jinshifang might not be able to buy without 1000 taels of silver.If she hadn't lived a new life, she wouldn't have known that Xiao Yi was only wearing a Hetian jade pendant. On the front was engraved a green dragon stepping on auspicious clouds, and on the back was engraved a character Yi, which never left her body.

This Hetian jade pendant, produced in the Royal Jade Mine, is made by the top sculptors in the palace for every newborn prince, representing the noble royal lineage.

Thinking that using the excuse of repaying the jade can be used as an excuse to secretly pass the money, it is really trying to cover up the truth.If Shen Yunluo wanted to make a fool of herself, her sister-in-law would not stop her.

It has always been the case that Miss Gaomen and men exchanged secrets, and if it was spread out, people would only look down on them.Lin Xian'er did this kind of thing, but she is the one Xiao Yi holds dear, so she will naturally conceal it seamlessly.But if Shen Yunluo did it, she had to endure the consequences.

She was looking forward to how Xiao Yi would break Shen Yunluo's heart.

The gift of thanks was sent to the Seventh Prince's residence, Shen Xinmeng thought that the matter had come to an end for now.In order not to offend Shen Yunluo, Xiao Yi would stop for a while, but he didn't want someone to come to visit him brazenly.Moreover, it is still a pair.
