After the eldest sister of the wronged family was reborn, she created a whole family of ungrateful p
Chapter 121 Does she look easy to fool?
At the end of October, the first snow of the year fell in the capital. The falling snowflakes looked like petals scattered by fairies from the sky.
Shen Ning is afraid of the cold, but she likes snow very much. She wraps herself warmly and lies in front of the window to watch the snow. Next to her is a stove where she is making hot tea.
"Miss, Miss Lumei and Miss Ziyan are here."
"Ok?"
Shen Ning was stunned for a moment before sitting up straight: "Please invite them in."
Two people were quickly invited in, one holding a box.
"Meet Miss Shen."
Shen Ning quickly stood up: "What are you doing? Sit down quickly."
"Sister Liuying, serve the tea."
Lumei and Ziyan looked at each other, smiled and held the box forward: "Don't worry, young lady, we two were ordered to deliver the gift today."
The two of them obeyed the order, Qin Zhuo?
Two boxes were placed in front of Shen Ning. Lu Mei winked mischievously: "Miss, why don't you open it and take a look?"
Shen Ning smiled helplessly, but still opened it as she wished.
The first box contained a pair of fox fur gauntlets, which looked nothing special at first glance, but when Lu Mei opened it, she found two pieces of warm jade embedded inside.
"Although I made these things, the fox fur and warm jade were given by you, young master. Do you like them?"
Those blinking eyes showed that they were afraid that Shen Ning didn't understand the deeper meaning.
Shen Ning glared at her unhappily. This girl just knew how to make fun of her.
Zi Yan opened the box and found two jars of wine inside: "This is wine made from dozens of medicinal materials such as deer blood, tiger bones, ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus, etc. It is the best for warming the body in winter. Drink half a cup every day, it can replenish blood and raise body temperature."
They are all things that are good for her body and are very valuable.
Shen Ning's expression was a little unnatural: "Did your master send these?"
Lumei: "No, I made it especially for the girl."
Zi Yan: "Although the things belong to you, I brewed the medicinal wine. I just brought two jars here, you don't know."
Shen Ning: “…” Does she look easy to fool?
Can such an expensive thing be given away just because the maid wants to?
"I appreciate your kindness, but it is too valuable and I cannot accept it."
Lu Mei glared at him instantly: "Miss, do you think we are not worthy of such a valuable gift?"
Zi Yan looked sad: "Miss, do you think we are annoying and don't want to see us anymore?"
"Ah?!" These two girls changed their faces as soon as they said they would, and Shen Ning couldn't do anything about it.
"I didn't, it's just this, this, this..." She just thought that this might have been given by Qin Zhuo. She already owed Qin Zhuo a favor, so how could she accept such a precious gift from him?
But Lumei and the others said that they gave it to her themselves, so she didn't know how to refuse.
Zi Yan gave the medicinal wine to Liu Ying and asked her to keep it. Lu Mei was even more overbearing. She took out the thing and put it on Shen Ning's hand, as if to say, "I'm giving it to you and you can't refuse."
The warm jade inside felt warm to the touch, making Shen Ning laugh and cry.
"I am not appreciative of your kindness. Thank you, Miss Lumei. Please forgive me."
Lu Mei had a tense face, and just as she was about to speak, she broke into laughter: "It would have been better if you had done this earlier. I am magnanimous and will forgive you."
It was rare for the two of them to come together, so Shen Ning naturally had to treat them well and invite them to boil tea around the stove, and at noon they changed to a pot.
In the afternoon, Shen Ning handed his book to them to read for fun, but the two of them immersed themselves in it and were so engrossed in reading that they ignored Shen Ning at all.
"..."
Is this book so magical?
The two were stunned. Yuzhu finally had the chance to stick to Shen Ning: "Miss, the eldest aunt is here again."
This is the third time Shen Sui has come since the last time. The first two times, Shen Ning had someone send her back and was not happy to see her at all.
Shen Ning doesn't want to see her now. Gao Junyu has not been able to resume his post yet. The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the Spring Examination is coming. Everyone is busy everywhere. After the Spring Examination, new blood will flow into the court. With so many talents available, who will still remember him, an insignificant little civil servant?
The couple were now extremely anxious, and Shen Sui's attitude had become better when he came to their house, and he even brought a gift this time.
Is this a dead end?
"not see."
Just as Yuzhu was about to leave, Shen Ning stopped her again: "Tell them Han Yin's identity and ask them to go find Shen Shu."
She didn't want to deal with these troublesome matters, so she just left them to Shen Shu.
Shen Shu is a kind-hearted person, so she definitely wouldn't mind helping her relatives.
Yuzhu smiled slyly: "I understand."
When Shen Ning turned around, Lumei and Ziyan were still holding the books in the same position without moving: "......"
But it seems that she could increase the number of copies of her book and maybe even make some money from it.
The third day of the twelfth lunar month is the 60th birthday of Taifu Xie, and this year it is a full birthday celebration, with the emperor granting a grand ceremony.
The Shen family also received a letter. Taifu Xie was the mentor of Shen's father. Shen's father was able to have such a smooth career in officialdom, and Taifu Xie helped him a lot.
When Shen Shuyuan was alive, he would present generous gifts to his teacher on his birthday every year. In the years after his death, Shen Ning has also been presenting gifts every year with full courtesy.
It’s not that Shen Ning is too grateful to Taifu Xie, these were all the ways she had paved for Shen Yu.
No matter how good Master Xie is, he may not take care of his disciples' descendants. But there is some affection between them. Shen Ning just needs to manage it carefully and be courteous during festivals to let them know that their Shen family remembers Master Xie, their late father and mentor.
Normally, Shen Ning never used this little bit of kindness, but saved it up little by little until Shen Yu grew up and achieved academic success. If Shen Yu wanted to serve as an official in the court, she would ask Taifu Xie for some help and guidance. Even if Shen Yu was not an outstanding person, with the help of Taifu, he would surely have a smooth career.
Unfortunately...Shen Yu has never been able to use it in his past or present life.
Even if she made a sled out of gold, she could do nothing if the ox was unwilling to move.
Shen Ning had already prepared the birthday gift. It couldn't be too expensive and conspicuous, nor too light to seem insincere.
On the third day of junior high school, Shen Ning wore warm clothes and dressed conservatively, and then took Mo Lin and Liuying with him.
As the Grand Tutor of a dynasty, he was ranked among the Three Dukes. The guests coming today were either dignitaries or high-ranking officials, and there was even a prince. Shen Ning was really inconspicuous among these people.
Gifts were not delivered individually, but were handed together to a steward who was specially responsible for receiving gifts, and then they were taken to the garden to sit.
Don’t even think about going to pay a visit to the birthday boy. Today, there are only important people there. Those who are not of high status don’t even have the qualifications to go up and pay a visit.
Because there were so many people, the maids and servants could not go in, so Liuying and Mo Lin could only wait at the door.
Shen Ning went in alone and didn't feel restrained because she knew quite a lot of people there.
While she was chatting with someone, the Princess of Qi came and waved her over. Princess Changle was standing next to her.
Shen Ning curled her eyebrows, this investment in Prince Qi's Mansion was the one that required the least effort on her part, but brought her the greatest benefit, allowing her to earn enough money to look good.
