Shen Yueqiao over there had just arrived at the front hall and did not attract anyone's attention. Only Shen Yuefeng came up to greet him.

"Second sister." Shen Yueqiao greeted her indifferently, and Shen Yuefeng nodded.

She felt quite uncomfortable here. She was supposed to come with Shen Yuemei, but when she heard that Xiao Cui had a stomachache early in the morning, her elder sister asked her to come first, so she had to come.

"Third sister Shen, you're here." As the host, Bai Zhanhua naturally came up to greet them. Her attitude was much warmer than when she was at the Lin family. Moreover, she called everyone third sister as soon as she came up, which showed that she didn't want to establish a relationship with the Lin family and was quite approachable.

Shen Yueqiao nodded, put her right hand around Shen Yuefeng, and asked affectionately: "Why is Second Sister here too?"

This statement sounded quite contemptuous to others, but Shen Yuefeng replied nonchalantly: "I came here to accompany my elder sister today..."

Before he could finish his words, Shen Yuemei walked in.

Bai Zhanhua's smile had froze on his face, but when he saw Shen Yuemei coming over, he heaved a sigh of relief and walked forward to greet her.

Shen Yueqiao felt a little confused when she saw this scene. Are they no longer shy about plotting against others?

As people gradually arrived, the poetry recitation session began.

To put it bluntly, today's poetry recitation meeting is just an exchange meeting. Reciting poetry is secondary and is just an excuse.

Shen Yueqiao suddenly felt a little bored. A bunch of people were gathered around a pot of chrysanthemums and chanting to each other. What was there to chant about?

She followed Shen Yuefeng closely. It happened that Shen Yuefeng also didn't like reciting poetry, so the two of them talked and laughed.

Just as the two were conversing happily, "Ms. Shen the Second Lady, Ms. Shen the Third Lady." A clear and beautiful voice came over.

Shen Yuefeng and Shen Yueqiao stopped talking and turned to look where the sound came from.

A graceful woman wearing a dress embroidered with peach blossoms was walking towards them. The dress made her skin look whiter than snow, but she didn't look coquettish and could be said to be very modest.

"Princess Wang." Shen Yueqiao did not know this person, but Shen Yuefeng did. This was none other than Wang Nayu, the legitimate daughter of the Wang family and also Lin Hongyou's wife.

Shen Yuefeng pulled Shen Yueqiao and introduced him in a low voice. Shen Yueqiao nodded slightly as a greeting.

"Why don't you two ladies go and recite poems?" Wang Nayu smiled. She had just come back from a short nap and discovered these two people who were so out of place.

"Yuefeng is not good at poetry, so I can only ask my third sister to stay with me. It would be a burden." Shen Yuefeng spoke first, and his words were full of protection for his sister.

"Oh?" Wang Nayu did not comment and looked at Shen Yueqiao.

"Yueqiao is also naturally dull and cannot compose poetry or couplets, so I won't embarrass myself." Shen Yueqiao didn't know what Wang was talking about, so he just told him the truth.

Wang Nayu smiled when she heard that, with admiration in her eyes. If Shen Yueqiao had followed Shen Yuefeng's lead, there would have been nothing wrong with it, but it would have lost some interest.

Wang Nayu had long heard from the elders in his family that Shen Yueqiao's articles were murderous in their grandeur, humble in their sharpness, and lenient and strict at the same time. If he could make it all the way to the palace examination, he would definitely be a formidable opponent.

However, as the saying goes, an honest man does not do shady things, so even though I want to compete with her, I also have to make friends with her and judge her character.

"Ms. Shen is being modest." Wang Nayu's voice was gentle, but she looked at Shen Yueqiao and invited him, "Why don't you go with me to take a look?"

Shen Yueqiao didn't want to go at first, but Shen Yuefeng squeezed her hand and she agreed.

backyard.

As soon as Mu Yuan arrived, he saw some people gathered together, apparently watching something.

Before he could get close to her, he heard Bai Suhua's voice: "Brother Mu Yuan, you are here too?"

Bai Suhua is Bai Zhanhua's younger brother. She is still unmarried.

Bai Suhua and Mu Yuan have a good relationship, so when Mu Yuan arrived, Bai Suhua came to greet him.

As he stepped forward, he said to Lin Honghui in a bad tone: "Second brother-in-law, our distinguished guests are here, why don't you step forward to entertain them?"

Hearing Bai Suhua's questioning tone, Lin Honghui's body stiffened unconsciously and he pursed his lips.

"What kind of distinguished guest is he? He is just from a merchant family. His wife is just a scholar, so what?" Lin Hongyou could not stand it at all when he saw this. He could only bully his brother, no one else could!

He doesn't take a small Bai family seriously.

"Fifth brother, it's me too..."

"Third brother, you are too cowardly and let Bai Suhua bully you to this extent!" Lin Hongyou's voice became louder and louder, attracting the attention of others.
