After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

When Xiang Hongxuan walked to the door of the Shen family, he immediately attracted a crowd of onlookers.

The elder said: "General, why are you here?"

Second Master: "General, I wanted to go and wish you a happy new year."

The Third Master said: "General, please go inside first."

Although the Shen family has split up, the courtyard of the second branch is still the main venue for receiving guests from outside.

The Shen family didn't have to pay New Year's greetings, after all, they had no relatives or friends here.

It happened that the old lady had just passed away, so several families agreed to get up early and not pay New Year's greetings.

So after keeping watch last night, the second lady let all the younger generations go to bed.

Besides, Shen Jinyao was planning to set up a caravan and deliver potatoes to various towns.

Therefore, Shen Jinyao and others slept very deeply.

As a result, before dawn, the gates of the four courtyards of the Shen family were opened.

"Is the Second Master home? Happy New Year to you."

"If the master doesn't get up, forget it."

"Third Master, I'm here to wish you a happy new year."

"Doctor Gao, I wish you a happy new year."

No one in the Shen family was well-educated and would stay indoors, so the several rooms of the Shen family became crowded in the early morning of the first day of the new year.

Many people pay New Year's greetings to the second branch of the Shen family, most of them because the second branch is their employer.

In addition, Mrs. Shen Er is a kind person and sometimes helps some women.

There are also some young people in the village who like to interact with Mr. Shen Er. They all want to take the imperial examination.

The eldest master also has a good relationship with others.

The master is quite famous in the village because he likes to educate others.

In addition, he himself likes to write couplets for happy events, so many people ask him to write couplets or teach children to recognize words before the New Year.

If we talk about the one with the best popularity, it is still the third master of the Shen family.

There is no one in the entire Wuhe Village who doesn’t know Master Shen San.

Mr. Shen San likes to make friends. He can chat with anyone, regardless of gender, age, good personality or bad temper.

When she was in the Shen family before, Old Madam Shen disdained Third Master Shen's behavior the most.

They always said that his behavior of being involved in both right and wrong and making friends with all kinds of people was really ruining the reputation of the Shen family.

But despite his personality, the first person he made friends with in Wuhe Village was Master Shen San.

Next are Shen Zhiyong and Shen Leyao.

The other members of the Shen family are more talented after all.

The villagers of Wuhe Village go to pay New Year's greetings to the village chief every year. This year, the Shen family is just as lively as the village chief's family.

There was a constant flow of people coming in and out of the courtyard of the second branch of the Shen family.

When Xiang Hongxuan came to the second house's yard, he saw this scene.

The three masters of the Shen family went out to see off the guests and happened to see Xiang Hongxuan.

Xiang Hongxuan simply bowed to the three masters. It was obvious that his etiquette was based on his relationship with the old lady.

The three masters led Xiang Hongxuan into the courtyard of the second house.

Because there were always people coming to the house to pay New Year's greetings, the girls and boys of the Shen family were also called up.

The young masters went out to learn how to welcome guests, while the girls sat in the main room.

The only ones who haven't gotten up yet are the eldest prince and Pan Ye.

To be precise, only the eldest prince.

Because Shen Jinyao had seen Pan Ye out for a stroll when she got up early, they nodded and greeted each other.

But Pan Ye was obviously frightened by the crowd of people paying New Year's greetings, and then hid in his guest room.

The reason is simple: Pan Ye is very handsome. He is exposed to the wind and sun every day, but he doesn't look dark at all.

Those sisters-in-law, aunts, and grandmothers who came to pay New Year's greetings naturally looked at Pan Ye.

The sharp-eyed ones naturally thought of Pan Ye whom they had seen before, but they did not know Pan Ye's identity.

I just thought he was a distant relative of the Shen family.

The way they looked at each other made Pan Ye feel very uncomfortable.

Pan Ye was hiding and didn't come out until he heard Xiang Hongxuan's voice.

Xiang Hongxuan saw Pan Ye and glared at him.

Everyone noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so they led everyone into the house.

When Shen Jinyao heard that General Xiang had arrived, she took Shen Tingyao and Shen Leyao back to her boudoir.

When they met General Xiang, Shen Jinyao and the other two bowed.

"General."

"Ah."

"Come, General, please take a seat."

When the three of them passed by the eldest prince's room, they heard the eldest prince's noise.

"Pan Ye, do you have any conscience? It's Chinese New Year and we don't need to pay New Year's greetings. Can't you let me sleep a little longer?"

Pan Ye hugged her chest and looked at the eldest prince who was lying on the bed holding the quilt.

"Xiang Hongxuan is here."

The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, then said angrily: "This Xiang Hongxuan, how did he know?"

Pan Ye looked at the eldest prince sarcastically, as if to say, is it difficult to find him?

Then came the sound of people getting up. Shen Jinyao quickly grabbed one of them in each hand and took Shen Tingyao and Shen Jinyao into her room.

Just as Shen Jinyao closed the door, the door to the eldest prince's room opened.

Shen Jinyao listened to the sounds outside and thought that they should be heading towards the main room.

Shen Tingyao moved closer to Shen Jinyao and asked, "Could it be that the eldest prince sneaked here?"

Although Shen Leyao didn't know why she was speaking so quietly, she still followed suit and whispered, "The eldest prince is so old, why is he acting like a child?"

Shen Jinyao sneered, "How old are you? And you still call others children?"

Shen Leyao: "Yo yo yo, big sister is worthy of being the big sister, you have become an adult? Hahahaha."

Shen Tingyao: "Look at Le Yao, she's going to be really good at talking."

Shen Leyao: "Anyway, you can't argue with me, Second Sister."

Shen Tingyao was dissatisfied and tilted her head and said, "Humph, I can't argue with you, but you are so good at talking, why don't you negotiate a single business deal?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Sister, take a look at Tingyao. Why do you feel like she has changed?"

"Tingyao, please teach Leyao a lesson. She's so disrespectful at such a young age."

The three sisters started chatting and laughing, and their words became more and more outrageous.

This was the first time the three girls from the Shen family laughed and joked together since the Shen family was exiled.

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door outside Shen Jinyao's boudoir.

The three sisters stopped talking and laughing, and Shen Tingyao was the first to sit on the stool and straighten her body.

Shen Leyao also sat down obediently, but her posture was not as good as Shen Tingyao's, but it was still acceptable.

Shen Jinyao simply tidied up her clothes that had been messed up while chatting and laughing with her two sisters, and then asked, "Qiuju, what's going on?"

Unexpectedly, after Shen Jinyao asked the question, the people outside fell silent.

Shen Jinyao was puzzled, as it was usually Qiuju who came to see her, and Dongmei usually followed her mother to help.

When she opened the door, she saw Xiang Hongxuan with his back to her.

Xiang Hongxuan heard the sound of the door opening and turned around.

At this time, the sunlight shone on Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan, making both of them seem a little unreal.

"Sorry, Miss Shen, I'm so abrupt."

After staying in the military camp for too long, I have forgotten the rules of a wealthy family.
