Seeing that the woman wanted to go back with Yao Shu, Shen Jianan couldn't wait any longer.

He quickly came to the two people and asked curiously: "Mom, isn't this young lady here to eat with us?"

"Okay, you don't have to worry about it anymore. If there's nothing else, you can take care of the restaurant first. I'll go home. I still have things to do." Yao Shu was extremely helpless, but she didn't have that much to worry about at this moment. After going around in circles with him, he spoke directly.

Seeing the two people leaving, I felt helpless for a moment. I didn't expect that I had fallen into Yao Shu's trap again unintentionally.

He could only accept his fate and continue to manage the restaurant, and couldn't wait until he got home at night to ask about the woman's identity.

After Yao Shu and Sun Qing returned to Shen's house, they arranged a guest room for Sun Qing, indicating that she would live here in the future.

Sun Qing was a little cautious and couldn't help but say: "I came here this time to be Mrs. Shen's personal maid. I don't know if Mrs. Shen can agree."

"I know what you are thinking, but I can tell you clearly that this time I called you into the Shen family, not to ask you to do anything for me. I think you and I are very compatible, so I want to accept you as my My adopted daughter, if you think there is no problem, you can live here." After saying this, Yao Shu took off a jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to her gently.

"I saw that the jade bracelet your mother gave you was accidentally broken before. Although this jade bracelet is not as good as your family heirloom, it is still of extraordinary value. If you don't dislike it, just treat it like this. I'll give you another one for your mother." After Yao Shu finished speaking, she took it directly for her.

Sun Qing subconsciously raised his hand and looked at the crystal clear jade bracelet through the sunlight, feeling particularly complicated in his heart.

She didn't know what to say for a moment and looked at Yao Shu with tears in her eyes.

Yao Shu shook her head gently, stroked her hair, and said, "Why are you crying? Now you have a home, and you are no longer homeless as you said before. If you really feel sorry for yourself, you can help me go there later." Management in the restaurant. Or I plan to open a rouge shop in the capital. If you are willing, you can also work with me to find a suitable shop."

Sun Qing nodded with tears in his eyes.

The next day, the Shen family received the emperor's order and asked to enter the palace to give advice.

In fact, the Shen family had expected this for a long time. After all, they had accomplished such a big thing. If the emperor didn't say anything, wouldn't it be a chill to everyone's heart?

Coming to the palace again, Yao Shu felt particularly melancholy.

Every time I come here, I have a different mood. And each time the purpose is different, and the results are also different.

Although they successfully completed the disaster relief this time, it is not known whether they completed the disaster successfully in the emperor's heart.

As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. No one can guess what the emperor is thinking in his heart.

So before coming here, Yao Shu specifically told the Shen family not to show any expressions on their faces, especially in the palace.

She specially warned Shen Nanshan, after all, Shen Nanshan never knew how to hide his expression.

At this moment, seeing the Shen family members walking forward with serious expressions, she felt relieved.

Arriving in front of the emperor, the Shen family members bowed respectfully.

Just like last time, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Civil Affairs and other important officials were all here. They were staring at the Shen family with very complicated expressions.

There are joys and sorrows, a mixture of both.

The emperor looked around, and finally his eyes rested on Shen Fugui.

"The youngest son of the Shen family has made great achievements this time. Is there any reward you want?"

The emperor's words were nothing more than digging a hole for Shen Fugui. Since they were allowed to come in to receive the reward, it meant that the emperor had already thought about what to reward them.

Now, let Shen Fugui speak for himself again, just to confirm whether Shen Fugui can guess what he wants to appreciate.

In the process of guessing, it should neither be too expensive nor too cheap. If it is too valuable, it means that he is not satisfied with what the emperor rewarded.

If it is too cheap, it means that he is dissatisfied with the emperor.

No matter what the answer is, it may make Long Yan furious and affect the result.

Yao Shu silently felt worried for Shen Fugui and had already begun to think about how to help Shen Fugui smooth his words.

What Yao Shu didn't expect was that Shen Fugui was extremely smart and reacted quickly.

I saw him speaking respectfully: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Now that I see the people living and working in peace and contentment, I feel that this is the best reward. If the Emperor must reward me for something, it is better to have a healthy body."

When the emperor heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

He rarely heard such an answer. Usually when faced with such a question, most people would express ignorance or fear. Only a few people thought they could guess the emperor's heart, so they made rude remarks and angered the emperor. .

Now, when the emperor heard Shen Fugui's words, he was overjoyed.

His face was filled with joy, he pointed at Shen Fugui and said, "What am I talking about? This kid must be a malleable talent. I didn't expect that I was right. I heard that you are going to take the exam soon. If you can If you successfully enter the palace examination, I will hand over the position of the recently removed seventh-grade official to you."

The Minister of Rites became anxious when he heard this, and Wan Kai said: "Your Majesty, this must not be against the rules. If others know that you can become a seventh-rank official just by completing a disaster relief task, there will be no one in the world." I’m willing to take the exam.”

After hearing this, the Prime Minister inevitably began to retort: ​​"Only by letting everyone know that those who truly love the people can be rewarded by the emperor. In this way, everyone will slowly focus on the people. Just like you and me, did we only rely on exams to get to where we are today?"

The prime minister made a pun. When Yao Shu heard him say this, she looked up in surprise.

Unexpectedly, this time he was looking directly at Cheng.

Yao Shu quickly avoided looking, but it was too late, the prime minister had already remembered her.

The emperor also felt a little irritated when he saw that the Minister of Rites and the Prime Minister were about to quarrel.

He waved his hand casually and said: "Not just any official can complete the disaster relief work. The Shen family's children have no experience this time. I didn't expect to be able to achieve such results. Such a reward is certainly not an exaggeration."

The emperor gave the final word, leaving the two people no longer able to quarrel.

The Minister of Rites was extremely angry, and he definitely did not want to see Shen Fugui enter the court.
