Remarry 9,000 Years Old

The ladies and noble girls arrived in groups of three or four.

When Shen Nanqiao turned around, she saw the old lady of the Founding Earl walking towards her, supporting Concubine Su, who was the Founding Earl's biological sister.

Judging from her attitude, she certainly wasn't here to chat. Sure enough, Concubine Su stood in front of her, acting superior.

She knew that this concubine was a difficult person, but she still nodded to maintain her politeness.

"Is this the Shen family's family education? They don't even show courtesy when they see the concubine?"

Today, the old lady of the founding father's family, who has someone to support her, is obviously much more confident.

Shen Nanqiao smiled slowly.

"We are both of the same rank, why should I bow?" Seeing that Concubine Su and the old lady of the founding earl were both stunned, she continued, "I have already nodded in greeting because the Concubine is the elder. If I bow any more, it would be inappropriate, right?"

"You..." The old lady of the founding earl was about to lose her temper, but Concubine Su pulled her sleeve, signaling her to stop arguing.

"Has the Crown Princess been chosen today?" Concubine Dowager Su went straight to the point without beating around the bush.

Shen Nanqiao shrugged.

"I am only responsible for screening the candidates. The final decision is still made by the Crown Prince. I have no way of knowing whether he has been chosen or not."

Concubine Su, who had been immersed in the harem for a long time, sneered.

"You don't have to play Tai Chi with me. Since it hasn't been publicly decided, it means everyone has a chance. Let's not beat around the bush. Our Su family will also send someone in this time. You decide."

"You are asking too much. The Crown Princess is the future Queen Mother. How can a minister like me influence her?" She glanced at the scene calmly. "Instead of embarrassing me here, why don't you go and talk to the Emperor directly?"

"Are you using the emperor to pressure me?" Concubine Su raised her eyebrows, "Do you believe that I can ask your father to discipline you..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Nanqiao showed a look of panic.

Concubine Su thought she was scared and looked smug. She was about to continue suppressing her but was interrupted by Shen Nanqiao.

"Taiwanese concubine, please be careful with what you say. My father is a stranger after all, and he is not your uncle, father, or brother. If you invite him here, I am afraid that if any rumors are spread, it will tarnish the reputation of Taiwanese concubine."

Concubine Su had been hiding in the harem for many years and had never suffered such humiliation. She almost fainted when she heard this.

He just pointed at Shen Nanqiao with shaking fingers, unable to speak.

Shen Nanqiao looked around and said, "Hold on, I'll ask someone to find the imperial physician. Don't get angry because you can't get someone here. Your illness is a small matter. The main thing is that on such a good day, you have bad luck and will make the empress dowager and the emperor unhappy. That would be a big deal."

At this moment, Concubine Su wished she could eat Shen Nanqiao alive, but she was also afraid that if she called the imperial physician, the matter would become a big deal, which would bring bad luck to the emperor.

So he gritted his teeth and endured it.

"When mountains and rivers meet, I want to see if you can stay so arrogant for a long time."

The old lady of the founding father also echoed.

"No matter how arrogant you are, you still have to choose an heir from the Ning family in the future." She sneered and looked at Shen Nanqiao, "Leave a way for everything so that we can meet again in the future, otherwise you will not be able to be tough at that time. Who made your husband live up to his expectations!"

As they were talking, the aunt and sister-in-law were about to leave, but they heard Shen Nanqiao shouting from behind.

"You stop."

The old lady of the founding father thought she had succeeded and looked back triumphantly.

"What, do you still want to fight with me?"

Shen Nanqiao slowly walked to her side and smiled.

"Kneel down."

The old lady of the founding father almost cried out, but she laughed out of anger.

"You want me to kneel down? At my age, I am more than old enough to be your grandmother. I..."

Shen Nanqiao interrupted with a firm tone.

"You are still only a fourth-rank official at this age. You have to rely on your sister-in-law to attend palace banquets. Who made your husband so disappointing?" She said word by word. "A higher rank can crush a person. I am older than you, not just one rank, right?"

When ordinary ladies met ladies of higher rank than themselves, they usually just bowed. For lower-ranking ladies of advanced age like the founding father's wife, even if she was the empress, she would not receive the full ceremony.

However, the laws of the Great Chu clearly state that women of higher rank than their father-in-law should perform the kneeling ceremony.

"It's fine if you don't kneel. I'll let the Queen Mother make the decision later. Should we change the laws of the Chu State or punish the old lady of the founding father's iron knee?"

Concubine Su was suddenly a little flustered. After the banquet, her sister-in-law could just walk away, but she would still have to face the empress dowager day and night.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously looked away, avoiding the pleading gaze of the old lady of the founding father.

Shen Nanqiao's voice became cold.

"Do you want to kneel down by yourself, or wait until the Queen Mother arrives?"

The old lady of the founding earl knew that she was going to be in trouble today, but when she looked around, she saw so many noble ladies, how could she lose face?

Shen Nanqiao didn't force it and was about to leave.

The old lady of the founding earl panicked, thinking that she was going to call for help. She subconsciously grabbed Shen Nanqiao's sleeve and knelt down tremblingly.

Where there are many women, there are also many gossips. When people saw that there was something exciting to watch, they all gathered around.

The Grand Tutor's wife only took a quick glance and guessed about 70% of the answer, and she laughed and joked.

"After all, the families of old officials are more polite. Look at our capital, no one performs such a grand ceremony!"

This statement was both a compliment and an insult. The old lady of the founding father's house just wished there was a crack in the ground she could crawl into.

However, Shen Nanqiao had no intention of giving up.

"If you really know how to be polite, you won't comment on other people's family affairs, and you won't criticize other people's husbands casually."

Having said that, if there is anything unclear, it must be that this old lady spoke without restraint and affected Ning Su.

But everyone in the capital knew that Madam Ning was famous for protecting her husband, and now she had really hit a wall.

The old lady of the founding earl finally realized that what she had just said was taboo, but it was too late to take it back, so she could only grit her teeth and endure Shen Nanqiao's humiliation.

Su Wan'er was originally with the Marquis's wife. When she saw this scene from outside the crowd, she quickly lowered her voice and hid aside.

Fortunately, these noble ladies in the capital city don’t know her very well.

Looking at her grandmother being humiliated by Shen Nanqiao in the crowd, Su Wan'er dug her nails deep into her palms.

Seeing this, the wife of Pingyuan Hou deliberately sighed.

"I can't help it. Since I married this Yaksha, I have offended all the relatives in the mansion. It's really a sin." He glanced at Su Wan'er and said, "If she can arrange this marriage for the prince, it will be even more terrible!"

Su Wan'er's heart moved when she heard this, and when she looked at Shen Nanqiao who was surrounded by the crowd, there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes.
