If it were someone else, she would inevitably curse them for being unlucky.

After all, Zhou Xinrou is Shen Lanxi's biological mother. This relationship is closer than that between her and her grandmother.

Her daughter held a family dinner, but she, as a mother, didn't go, which was a lack of respect for her daughter.

Old Madam Shen felt like watching the fun for the first time in a long time. She wanted to see whether Shen Lanxi would treat Zhou Xinrou the same way she treated her son.

……

In the blink of an eye, the Shen family arrived at the palace.

Shen Lanxi personally went to the palace gate to greet them, giving enough face to the elders of the Shen family.

"Long live your Majesty..."

Shen Lanxi: “Stand up.” She glanced at her father who was standing at the back with an unwilling look on his face, and then looked away.

"Grandma, our Shen family now has many descendants. In a few years, we will be able to become a big family."

Compared to what other people say about having many children and grandchildren in front of Old Madam Shen, she prefers to say it more directly.

Especially, the family that had few descendants developed into a large family, all thanks to her as the old lady.

"You little kids, why don't you come over here and pay your respects to His Majesty!" Old Lady Shen said.

A group of little kids, ranging from teenagers to those who have just learned to talk and are sitting in the arms of their mothers, are all decorations.

"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty..."

Shen Lanxi looked at the dark mass on the ground, stretched out her fingers with interest, and counted the heads.

"One, two, three... forty-five, good!"

Old Madam Shen: "There are sixteen girls and twenty-nine boys. Those two girls are Yuan Xin's." Don't recognize the wrong heir of the Shen family.

Shen Lanxi raised her hand and the eunuch brought a few trays.

"This is a gift from me to you. The word Shen is engraved on it. Wearing this jade pendant means that you are a member of the Shen family."

Many people in the Shen family took notice. The jade pendant had dragon patterns carved on it, and it was truly a gift from the emperor!

"Hurry up and thank His Majesty!" Old Madam Shen was very happy. Lan Xi still sided with the Shen family.

There were rumors about the establishment of a crown prince two days ago. Lan Xi's move must be to choose a son from the Shen family for adoption.

This is the best way. The throne cannot be given to outsiders.

Shen Yuantang stood at the very end, neither stepping forward nor trying to please others.

Before, she only thought that Wei Dongzhu was hypocritical, but now she felt that Shen Lanxi was no different.

Wei Dongzhu is also a fool. If Shen Lanxi is really devoted to him, why hasn't she married him yet?

There is nothing good about either of them.

"Yuan Xin, these are your two children. I heard before that you have changed the surnames of the two children to Shen?"

Shen Yuanxin was full of surprise. Her child also had it?

"Well, big..." Shen Yuanxin realized she had said something wrong and quickly changed her words.

"Your Majesty, I don't want the child to be entangled with that family anymore. From now on, the child will only be mine."

Shen Lanxi patted her shoulder and said, "She is also a child of our Shen family."

Shen Yuanxin covered her face and sobbed.

Old Madam Shen glared at him and said, "Why are you crying on such a happy day?" She looked depressed.

If she hadn't been worried, she would have cursed him.

Everyone is looking for trouble today.

"Don't be angry, grandma. It's a blessing for Yuan Xin to be free from the torture of her husband's family. Our family came from Dongchuan and then to the northwest. We have been through thick and thin together and have come this far. It's not easy!"

When Old Madam Shen thought about the days of exile in Dongchuan, her anger finally subsided.

"You're right. It's a great blessing for our family to have come this far and be together as one."

"Your Majesty, Aunt!" Shen Emei walked forward and took Shen Lanxi's hand.

The latter was stunned, then smiled and grabbed it with his backhand.

"Emei, do you miss your father?"

"Yes, my father said that if I miss him, I should write him a letter."

Shen Lanxi was surprised: "You already know how to write a letter?"

Shen Emei said proudly, "That's not difficult. When I was in the northwest, I often wrote to my father. If my father hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted to write to your majesty and aunt."

Shen Lanxi: "Really? So amazing?"

Shen Emei snorted proudly: "That's right, I can also ride a horse, practice martial arts, and hunt. My father often takes me to the army to watch the soldiers practice."

Shen Lanxi's smile deepened: "Our eyebrows are so powerful, then practice for me next time, okay?"

"Okay, Aunt Majesty, my father said you are very good at Kung Fu, can you teach me?"

"Sure, but I don't have that much time. If you want to practice martial arts, I will choose a powerful master for you."

Shen E frowned and thought seriously: "Okay, Your Majesty, Auntie, you can't lie to me."

Shen Lanxi laughed: "Little brat, I'm talking about you!"

The people following behind silently watched the two people, one big and one small, walking hand in hand in front, and kept their conversation in mind.

"Your Majesty, our Chengfeng has loved martial arts since he was young. He is very strong and can even eat two bowls of rice in one meal." Liu was afraid that Shen Lanxi would forget her grandson, so she quickly interrupted.

Although Shen Emei was born to the eldest wife, she was a girl, while Chengfeng and his partner were men.

Old Madam Shen glanced at Liu and did not say anything to stop her.

The others also remained silent.

Shen Congwen said with a straight face: "If you want to teach your children martial arts, you have to teach them together!"

Liu, Miao and others all looked at Shen Congwen, their hearts filled with joy.

"Brother..." He wanted to say that he was worthy of being the patriarch of the Shen family, but when he thought of Shen Lanxi, he hesitated.

"Brother is thoughtful and always thinks about our Shen family." Shen Congyi forced himself to say.

Shen Lanxi saw it all but kept smiling.

"The Imperial Academy teaches both literature and martial arts. When our Shen family's children enter the academy, they can learn the six arts of a gentleman if they want."

Didn’t you say to find a good teacher alone?

Everyone in the Shen family secretly complained.

As they were talking, they arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Shen Lanxi let go of Shen Emei's hand. Shen Emei wanted to chase after her, but Old Madam Shen quickly grabbed her and glared at her.

What is the little girl trying to show off? She doesn't behave like a woman at all. What martial arts is she learning? Those are things that men learn. When she returns to the mansion, she will ask the eldest brother to teach the child in the room a good lesson. She doesn't know any rules at all!

Everyone sat down at the family dinner. Shen Lanxi glanced casually and caught a glimpse of Wu Qingyu, who was seated farthest away.

He silently withdrew his gaze and started chatting with his family.

"When the grand ceremony was held, I wanted to give my uncles military posts. But when I thought about giving them military posts, they would be separated and sent to different places, and they would not be able to mourn for their grandmother. I was torn for two days."

"On one hand, there is the future of my uncles, and on the other hand, there is filial piety. Later, it was the young men in my family who persuaded me, saying that my uncles were getting older, and they had worked diligently in the army and suffered a lot. Now that the world is stable, let the elders have a good rest at home, and leave the hard work to the young people!"

The Shen Conglian brothers had been angry about the Dafeng incident before, and privately complained to Shen Lanxi about being ungrateful.

Unexpectedly, the one who destroyed the bridge was not her, but the bastard in their family.
