The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 162 Visiting Yong'an Marquis' Mansion

The wife of Marquis Yong'an was very happy to learn that Princess Yongkang would come to her house the next day.

"Miss Lao, go back and tell them that the entire Yong'an Marquis' Mansion is here to welcome the princess."

Zhang Zirou bowed and said, "Okay, Madam. I'll take my leave."

After returning to the palace, Shen Jiarou took the initiative to go to the warehouse.

Aunt Zhenhua didn't understand what was going on. She just saw her princess looking left and right, as if she wanted to see clearly everything needed in the warehouse.

"Princess, what are you doing?"

"Go to Yong'an Houfu tomorrow morning. I will pick out some gifts for the visit."

Aunt Zhenhua didn't know about the imperial edict and was stunned when she heard it.

"The princess has a relationship with the Yong'an Marquisate?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head. "Not before, but there will be in the future."

Aunt Zhenhua was confused by what she heard.

"My father has asked me to take care of the wife of Marquis Yong'an in her old age."

Aunt Zhenhua's eyes widened. "Huh?"

Suningde was holding a whisk in his hand, his face full of surprise.

"When?"

"A few hours ago."

Everyone looked at each other.

Aunt Zhenhua stepped forward and asked, "What do you think the princess is going to give?"

Shen Jiarou thought about it and decided that after all, she was not familiar with them yet, so it would be better to be low-key for the first time and just choose someone who was decent.

"One set of the Four Treasures of the Study, one small box each of gold leaves and gold beans, twenty medium to large white pearls, one hundred-year-old ginseng, ten medium-sized pearl fans, ten purses, one jade pendant, four bracelets, and two boxes of beauty masks. How much do you have?"

Xie Youmu said softly, "If the Four Treasures of the Study are counted as one, there will be ten gifts. If they are counted individually, there will be thirteen."

Shen Jiarou nodded in satisfaction. "That's about right. I'll bring our special cakes and snacks tomorrow. That's pretty standard."

Thinking about what she had to do tomorrow, Shen Jiarou decided to take a nice and fragrant bath.

An Yiyin specially sprinkled rose petals on the back, and other palace maids gently rubbed Shen Jiarou's back.

"Princess, what's up?"

Seeing An Yiyin's expectant eyes, Shen Jiarou smiled brightly.

"It's comfortable. I'll do the same next time."

An Yiyin was very happy to receive the praise.

When Shen Jiarou saw so much water, she became playful.

"Sister Qingling, Sister Luosang, let's all play in the water."

After saying that, Shen Jiarou threw a handful of water at the people around her, and no one was able to dodge.

"Princess, you sneak attack."

"There's no sneak attack. I said we were just playing in the water."

"Ouch, my shoes are wet."

"It's okay if it's wet. I'll bring you a pair of embroidered shoes from the Pearl and Jade Pavilion some other day."

"Princess, it's a deal."

"Okay, okay, let's make a promise and stick to it for a hundred years."

The bathroom was filled with the joyful voices of the young girls, and the palace maids guarding outside the door were extremely envious.

"The princess and the others are having so much fun."

"Yes, our princess is the most approachable."

"that is……"

The little guy lay down on the bed and slept until dawn.

"another beautiful day."

Ruan Qingling came in and smiled when she heard the princess' words.

"Princess, you are awake now. Which dress should we wear when we go to Yong'an Marquis today?"

Shen Jiarou, helped out of bed by Zhen Luosang, walked towards her closet.

"Mauve, pastel, orange, turquoise, lake blue, they all look good, what should I do?"

Several people covered their faces and laughed secretly. It was quite funny that something happened to the princess.

"Forget it, just choose this light orange set. It will match my bright smile and will charm everyone."

Hahahaha.

Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Princess, you're going to make people laugh to death."

Shen Jiarou chuckled and said, "You're welcome. Let's get dressed up first."

After breakfast, Shen Jiarou took the handkerchief handed to her by Xie Youmu and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.

"Little fairy sisters, let's go."

Ruan Qingling, Zhen Luosang and the other two smiled at each other and followed closely.

Two carriages left the palace, carrying ten guards, and headed all the way to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

"Madam, here she comes, the princess is here."

The wife of Marquis Yong'an and all the masters in the mansion came out to greet them.

"Yu!"

Bao Zhiqing grabbed the reins and jumped off the car calmly.

Ruan Qingling was the first to get out of the carriage, followed by Zhen Luosang, Zhang Zirou, and finally Zheng Shutong, who helped Shen Jiarou, who was wearing a light orange dress, get out of the carriage.

No one in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion had ever seen Princess Yongkang's beautiful face, and they were excited and delighted when they first saw her.

"I pay my respects to Princess Yongkang."

"Your Highness pays respect to Princess Yongkang."

"Your humble servant pays respect to Princess Yongkang."

"I pay my respects to Princess Yongkang."

……

With the support of Zheng Shutong, Shen Jiarou walked towards Yong'an Marquis Mansion step by step.

"No gift!"

The wife of Marquis Yong'an was delighted when she saw the gentle and bright girl.

"The granddaughter has seen her grandmother, and the daughter has seen her mother."

They both bent down and helped her up, "Please stand up quickly."

Everyone walked into the main hall one by one. For a moment, the old lady and the wife of Yong'an Marquis didn't know where to sit.

Shen Jiarou saw the embarrassment of the two people and said, "Grandma, please take a seat."

Shen Jiarou and the wife of Marquis Yong'an helped her sit down, and then they sat down at the bottom, and everyone sat down in turn.

Shen Jiarou glanced around the room. Wow, there were probably about twenty people.

When Lady Yong'an Marquis saw Princess Yongkang looking at everyone, she quickly introduced them.

"Princess, let me introduce you. This is your second aunt Shu Changchun, 36 years old. The two over here are her eldest daughter Jiang Shuyuan, 20 years old, married for six years. This is your brother-in-law, Mo Xiuyan, a passerby...

These two are the Marquis’s concubine daughters. The eldest is Shu Ya, thirteen years old. The second is Shu Fei, ten years old…”

Every time someone was introduced, that person would stand up and salute Shen Jiarou respectfully.

After looking around, Shen Jiarou felt a headache, as she seemed to have not remembered any of them.

There are too many daughters in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. The families they married into don't look very good, but their personalities seem good.

Ruan Qingling had already brought out five servings of pastries that she ate every day in the palace.

"Grandma, mother, in addition to some small gifts today, I also brought some food and pastries, all of which I made myself. You can all try them."

Ruan Qingling, Zhen Luosang and Zhang Zirou came to the old lady first, carrying trays.

"Madam, please try it."

"Ma'am, you should try it too."

Everyone was mesmerized by the aroma of the pastries: What a nice smell.

The other ladies all tasted it carefully one by one.

Jiang Shufei raised her eyebrows with joy, and after finishing her meal, she took another piece to taste.

Madam Hu, who was by the side of the wife of Marquis Yong'an, had registered the gifts sent by Princess Yongkang. They were quite generous, and were the most generous in the past ten years, except for the rewards from the emperor.

Madam Yong'an nodded gently, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Madam Hu. Please wait for a while."

Several ladies tried to find topics to chat with this noble princess, hoping to leave a good impression.

Fortunately, they were not difficult questions, and Shen Jiarou was able to deal with them calmly.

The dining room is very spacious, with a table placed on it. The dishes on it are very sumptuous, and it is obvious that the host has put a lot of thought into it.

No one dared to sit down easily. Shen Jiarou looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, please sit down!"

After helping her sit down, Shen Jiarou helped the wife of Marquis Yong'an to sit down before she sat down herself.

One was her grandmother and the other was her mother. When they sat down, it was naturally her turn as the princess to sit down.
