The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

Chu Yi was not only proud and confident, but also very good at piercing the heart. He looked at Xie Guimo with a strange expression, "Xiao Xun lied to me that you were interested in Miss Shen Er. I don't know where he saw it?"

If you are interested in the girl from the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, but you don't try to please her, and thus ruin the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion's good fortune, isn't that tantamount to digging your own grave?

Who is Xie Guimo? Could he do such a thankless task that would bury himself in a hole?

Chu Yi was certain that Xiao Xun was lying to him, luckily he had believed it halfway before.

Chen Qi's forehead jumped. Wasn't it obvious enough that his master treated Second Miss Shen well? Prince Duan had even told Prince Xuanyi directly, and Prince Xuanyi didn't believe it...

However, what the Prince of Xuanyi Marquis said was not wrong. I asked the prince to recommend the second master of Xuanyi Marquis's Mansion, blocking the second master of Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion from being promoted. I'm afraid everyone in Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion must be furious now. But this is the favor that Second Miss Shen asked me for. If I help, I will cut off my own retreat. If I don't help, I will have no way out at all.

Chu Yi coughed lightly, looked at Xie Guimo and said, "Are you interested in Miss Shen Er?"

Xie Guimo glanced at him, "Why are you asking so clearly?"

Chu Yi said, "I think she is quite interesting..."

This wasn't the first time Chu Yi had said this. Xie Guimo paused as he flipped through the military manual and said, "It's getting late. Go back and pack your bags."

Chu Yi was confused. "Why would I pack my bags when I have nothing to do?"

"Send you to mine."

"..."

Do you want to be so cruel?

Chu Yi twitched his lips and said, "You really like Miss Shen Er?"

Xie Guimo rarely took his eyes off the military book. Chu Yi was indeed frightened and took a big step back. He said quickly, "I'm not trying to steal your girl. It was Xiao Xun who saw that I didn't believe him and instigated me to test you. I'm leaving, I'm leaving now..."

Fearing that Xie Guimo would beat him, Chu Yi quickly dodged.

But he couldn't help but feel curious. Xiao Xun didn't have an extra eye, nor were his eyes bigger than his, so how could he tell that Xie Guimo liked Miss Shen Er? How come he didn't notice it at all? It was a waste of his bright, deep, and beautiful eyes.

While Chu Yi was leaving Prince Jingyang's Mansion, Chen Shan climbed over the wall and jumped through the window into the study.

Chen Shan said, "Second Miss Shen asked me to thank you on her behalf..."

Chen Qi said, "Why don't you call her the Crown Prince's Consort?"

"Miss Shen Er doesn't allow me to shout."

Xie Guimo's expression turned visibly colder. "She told you not to shout, so you didn't shout?"

He knew that the master would not be happy. Chen Shan said silently, "The Crown Princess has something to say, and I cannot help but listen."

In order to help Second Miss Shen, I even went to the prince for help. How could he not know the position of Second Miss Shen in my heart?

Xie Guimo continued to read military books.

Chen Qi asked, "Miss Shen Er, don't you have any doubt that I am the Prince of Jingyang?"

The old man couldn't take off the mask for a long time, and Chen Qi was worried about him.

Chen Shan said, "Second Miss Shen's maid is suspicious..."

"Then what?" Chen Qi asked.

"Second Miss Shen dispelled the maid's suspicions."

"..."

Xie Guimo laughed in anger. It was so obvious, but the woman didn't doubt it at all. Was she doing it on purpose or did she simply not dare to guess it was him?

He can be anyone, except the Prince of Jingyang.

Thinking of what Shen Tang said, a certain gentleman felt upset.

He didn't believe what the dream said. The woman must be hiding something from him.

Inside the house, Shen Tang was watching Ginkgo and Qiu Tong playing twirl. Outside, Si'er came in with a tray containing three plates and six kinds of pastries. Ginkgo asked, "Why so many pastries?"

Si'er said, "The kitchen just sent it..."

As for why the head kitchen sent it, there is no need to ask. The second wife thought that the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was in the second master's pocket, so she asked the head kitchen to prepare cakes and fruits early, waiting to entertain the guests who came to congratulate him. As a result, she was too happy too early. These cakes were bought from the cake shop, and the servants didn't dare to eat them casually. The head kitchen didn't even dare to ask the second wife what to do with them.

I quietly asked Sun Mama, the housekeeper who was beside the Second Wife, and Sun Mama asked the kitchen to send more to each courtyard, and the kitchen did so.

This time the second wife was greatly embarrassed, not only in the mansion, but also outside the mansion and in the court.

In such a huge mansion, Shen Tang was probably the only one in a good mood who could eat cakes. However, three plates were too many for Shen Tang to finish by himself. Shen Tang took a piece of red bean cake and asked the maid to take the rest out for everyone to share.

The servants in the mansion were also in a bad mood. After all, the second master had been promoted, and the second mistress was happy. She was planning to reward everyone in the mansion with three months' salary. But the second master's promotion fell through, and they also lost their reward money.

Shen Tang had just finished eating a piece of red bean cake when there was a knock on the window. She quickly looked towards the window, thinking that the man had come, but there was no movement after the knocks on the window. A hint of disappointment flashed in Shen Tang's eyes.

She got off the couch, opened the window and saw Chen Shan standing outside.

Chen Shan saluted Shen Tang and said, "The princess asked me to thank you on her behalf. A simple thank you is not enough, so I asked the princess to embroider a purse for him as a thank you gift."

Although Shen Tang suspected that it was the man who helped, he was still shocked when he heard it.

How did he get Prince Jingyang to help recommend the second master of the Xuanyi Marquisate?

After doing her such a big favor, asking her to embroider a purse as a thank you gift is not worth mentioning.

Just embroidering a purse...

Shen Tang thought that those people used the purse she embroidered to take the life of Prince Jingyang, and she was reluctant to embroider purses again.

He doesn't necessarily need her to embroider a purse, a handkerchief should be fine too, right?

Shen Tang felt that the handkerchief was not enough to express her gratitude. She was afraid that people would misunderstand that she was being lazy and her thanks were insincere, so Shen Tang decided to embroider a belt for the man as a thank you gift.

Having made up his mind, Shen Tang took Ginkgo to the warehouse, picked out a piece of sky blue silk, and began to embroider the belt.

For three consecutive days, Shen Tang was busy embroidering the belt.

That evening, Shen Tang was embroidering a belt when Si'er came in and said, "Miss, the third lady is here."

Shen Tang quickly put the belt back into the embroidery basket and covered it with the embroidery cloth. Just as she hid it, Shen Ran came in.

Shen Tang smiled and said, "Why is Third Sister here with me?"

Shen Ran said, "The old lady of Duke Wen's mansion is having a birthday in a few days. Someone just sent over the invitation. Grandmother asked my mother to take my second sister and me to celebrate the birthday. I came to tell you."

I didn't even let Shen Xi go...

Shen Tang guessed that it was because Shen Xi had lost too much weight recently, and the old lady didn't want people to see Shen Xi looking haggard after her engagement was broken off.

Shen Tang thought that Shen Ran was just here to tell her and would leave, but she didn't expect Shen Ran to sit down. Not only did he sit for a while, but he was also curious about what needlework she usually did, so he opened the embroidery basket.

Seeing the belt, Shen Ran said, "I didn't expect Second Sister's needlework is so good. Who did you embroider this belt for?"

"Embroidered for my cousin!"

Shen Tang couldn't say that she embroidered it for a man, so she could only use her cousin as an excuse. "My cousin's birthday is coming soon, so I embroidered a belt for him as a birthday gift."

Shen Ran felt that the cousins ​​were too close, but Shen Tang was already half-related. Even if not, the old lady would never marry Shen Tang to the Jiang family, so there was no need to think wrongly.

Shen Ran put down the belt and said, "Second sister is busy, I will go back first."

Shen Tang stood up to see her off.

After sending Shen Ran back, Shen Tang saw the man sitting on a small couch through the beaded curtain, holding the half-embroidered belt in his hand.
