Shen Family was a family with a scholarly air. Although it couldn't compare to the seniors who were officials, it was still considered a prominent family in the whole family.

The Shen Family descendants were quite lush and flourishing, this one being the direct descendant, with Master Shen and the other two brothers, as well as two married concubines and their aunts. As for Master Shen, he was the Prefect of Yongping's Mansion and Second Master Shen was the Young Master of the Supreme Court, so the second branch of Shen Family should have a higher status.

When his wife left, Shen Er Wife Mrs Yuv came in. Mrs Feng welcomed her with a smile, and the two sister-in-law and sister-in-law greeted each other courteously.

Mrs Yuv was a well-mannered young miss of the Shangguan Family. She had a gentle and elegant face, and just like Second Master Shen, she smiled whenever she saw someone. Mrs Feng got along well with her.

Mrs Yuv's sister-in-law sat down for a long time, and a girl with a pair of bun on her head, unable to bear it any longer, rushed to Xiuying's side. Xiuying was about to bow to Second Aunt when she was frightened into taking a few steps back.

"Big sister, I heard you beat up second sister! How did you beat me up! " Shen Xiuwan was so excited that her face turned red. She wanted nothing more than to reproduce the scene.

The corner of Xiuying's mouth twitched.

Her Third Sister's inquisitive personality was something that she had always been curious about since she was young. What was so nice about fighting? She even looked at her with a face full of worship. Her fight with Shen Xiulian was the most outrageous thing she had done in her two lifetimes.

How did she do it?

Xiuying didn't think much of it before, but now that she thought about it, it was a little funny. She realized that she was alive again, and her heart was full of resentment.

Shen Xiuwan's eyes were still sparkling, as if she wanted to listen to gossip. Mrs Yuv smiled awkwardly at Mrs Feng, then pulled her daughter back to glare at her.

Shen Xiuwan pouted as she felt wronged. Actually, she wasn't really curious at all. She also wanted to beat up that second elder sister who could easily cry for a long time and act like she was the most pitiful in the family.

"Big Sis."

When Shen Xiuwan was dragged away, her younger brother, as well as the fourth concubine, greeted Xiuying. Xiuying smiled and nodded. Seeing her sisters who had grown up together with Xi Ri, she felt touched.

The room was filled with children. Mrs Feng ordered someone to put the candies in a box and gave the melon seeds to Xiuying. "Go play with your siblings at the West Room, but don't quarrel."

Xiuying laughed disapprovingly. She wasn't really eight years old, how could she bully these genuine kids?

The girls crowded around a group of young masters and went to the West Room.

After Shen Xiuwan left her mother, she held Xiuying's hand again and asked about yesterday's incident. Xiuying didn't know whether to laugh or cry from her actions, so she had no choice but to say it. When the five-year-old Shen Qing Rui heard this, he even forgot to eat the candy. His black and white eyes blinked as he looked at Big Sis. "Big Sis, when you grow up, you will become a general, right?"

The little girls laughed out loud, while the corners of Xiuying's eyes twitched. What did this Second Brother mean?!

"Big sister is stronger than all of us, so her strength is definitely stronger. My father said that anyone with more strength can become a general."

Even though it was a childish talk, Xiuying's face still darkened.

No girl wanted to be called strong, not a pig!

Xiuying took a piece of pine nut candy and stuffed it directly into Shen Qing Rui's mouth, finally stopping his mouth from opening.

Shen Xiuwan's face turned red from laughter. Shen Yi and Shen Juan were only six years old, but they knew the difference in status between them and their sister. They were afraid to laugh, so they were also beaten up by the big sister.

"Big sister, just ignore him. He doesn't know how to talk." Shen Xiuwan smiled.

Xiuying thought to herself, you're not a talkative person, can't you let this matter pass? At the same time, she secretly pinched her thigh. Actually, she wasn't that fat. She wasn't that young, and by the time she grew up in two years, she would have lost weight.

Mrs Feng and Mrs Yuv paid special attention to the children as they ate and talked. Naturally, they heard Shen Qing Rui's words and looked at each other, pursing their lips and smiling. After she smiled, Mrs Yuv said, "I heard that Uncle has woken up. Our Second Master went to visit him. I'm preparing to send him some food and tonic." Shen Junxiao was already a teenager. As his sister-in-law, they all began to avoid him a little.

Mrs Feng knew what she meant and said, "You actually want to work together with me? Is Second Uncle returning to the capital?"

"After a night of travelling, I went into the house and drank some tea. Before I came over, I had already left." Speaking of her husband, who had been away from home all year round, Mrs Yuv smiled with a hint of melancholy. "He lives in the yamen and only has attendant by his side. He said it's a lie if he doesn't worry."

"I told you that you should have followed me." Mrs Feng looked at her with a smile. "Second Uncle is now a fourth rank official, and you guys have quite a bit of money on your hands. You can just buy a small house."

Mrs Yuv's expression became a bit calmer as she shook her head. "My husband said that it's unfilial for him to not stay by my mother's side. How could I possibly follow him?" As a woman in the inner chamber, she did not know much about government affairs, but she did know that her husband avoided official matters.

Shen Family had some reputation in the Yongping's Mansion, but it had no foundation in the capital, so one had to be careful of everything.

Mrs Feng had already told her all that needed to be said. She didn't want to talk more about the matters that needed to be discussed, so she changed the topic and started talking about the matters of the mansion. All these years, Mrs Feng had managed the Shen Family and managed the family, she was obedient and organized, but she still got Mrs Yuv to help her buy the items in the kitchen.

By doing so, he was also bringing the sister-in-law closer to him.

Mrs Yuv recovered some energy and told her about Old Madame Shen's birthday in April.

They had just exchanged a few words when Aunt Cui and Aunt Wang brought their children over to pay their respects. Seeing that it was almost lunch time, Mrs Yuv took her leave.

Mrs Feng urged him to stay, saying, "The children are having fun, and Second Uncle is back in the capital. "Last time you said that the pigeon with the spiced pigeon was not bad, I told them to make it for you again."

Mrs Yuv thought that it wouldn't be a big deal if she went back. It wasn't easy to meet her husband, but he just turned around and left. It wouldn't be as lively as going back. She thought for a moment and agreed.

Aunt Cui and Aunt Wang waited until the two of them had finished talking before politely stepping forward to pay their respects to Mrs Feng. Shen Xiulian's eyes were still swollen, and she endured the pain in her knees as she blessed Mrs Feng. The Brother Xiang that Aunt Wang gave out wasn't even a year old, so the wet nurse carried him forward.

Mrs Feng took it over. A one-year-old boy was able to recognize her, so when he saw her, he immediately called out for her to marry him … "Kind..." The first word of Mother is not yet spoken. Mrs Feng's heart softened when she saw his flattering face. She lowered her head to kiss his little face and patiently taught him, "Mother, mother."

"Kiss, kiss …"

This made Mrs Feng burst into laughter.

Mrs Yuv also thought Brother Xiang was cute. "It seems like he has grown up a lot."

"Kids grow when they see wind, and they sink their hands again." Mrs Feng smiled as she looked at Aunt Wang. "You must have had a lot of trouble tonight. I'll get Xin Mei to bring you some bird nests later."

"How could a concubine be like this? This is all part of my responsibility." Aunt Wang replied with great trepidation.

She was the kind of girl with a small skeleton and a waist as small as a willow branch. When she spoke, she was gentle and gentle, making people reluctant to even speak loudly to her.

"It's your credit for raising Young Master well." Mrs Feng told someone to move the conch for her and let her sit down. Mrs Feng had always been good to her. The main reason was that Aunt Wang had always been able to keep her place. Even though she had given birth to the only male in the long room, she had never thought too much about it. Therefore, Mrs Feng also lifted her up.

Aunt Cui looked on coldly as she thought, Mrs Feng's acting is really good, and she's full of virtuous and virtuous qualities. It was as if people didn't know that she was probably still praising Aunt Wang because of Brother Xiang, the only guy in the room right now.

The only male, Aunt Cui, chewed this line a few more times in her heart. When she looked at Brother Xiang, who was babbling in Mrs Feng's arms, her eyes became unfathomable.
