After rebirth, the cold prince clings to me every day

Chapter 13 Recruitment

Shen Mingjiao feels that this current royal family is definitely the most people-friendly and kind-hearted in history.

If this matter had been done in the previous dynasty or during the late emperor's time, they would have dared to discuss the sexy news of noble people so unscrupulously, and would have been very bold to write it into a storybook - even though the names were not used, anyone with eyes would know who was writing about it.

I don't know how many times my family has been confiscated and my family has been exterminated.

At this time, Cuiliu walked in, glanced at the comfortable master and servant, and said: "Four girls, today the third uncle is here to hire someone, and my wife wants you to go to the flower hall."

Shen Mingjiao didn't even raise her eyes, "Tell your wife that I am busy embroidering the dowry and have no time."

In the past, in order to avoid trouble, she would have had to maintain a superficial relationship with these people.

But now, since he has the backing of Prince Su's Mansion and doesn't need to care about other people's feelings, then why should she do something she doesn't like? Now that her identity is there, no matter how unhappy Li is, she can only hold it in

.

Cuiliu had a thought in her heart, but she thought that the other party was about to marry into Prince Su's palace, and he was no longer the transparent person that he could ignore at will in the past, so he had no choice but to bear this breath and leave with a forced smile.

Haitang made a face at her leaving figure,

…

Cuiliu returned to the flower hall and told Shen Mingjiao's words in a crisp voice in front of everyone.

Mrs. Li glanced at Cuiliu, then sighed sadly:

"Don't think too much about it. The fourth girl has lost her parents since she was a child. She is the most pitiful. No matter what good things are in the house, they always stick to the fourth girl. But for some reason, this child always lowers his head and dare not

Look at people.”

She smiled happily: "It's better now. She is favored by King Su, and she no longer has to live a cautious life."

Even though she said this, everyone thought that Shen Mingjiao was an ungrateful wolf once he gained power.

A middle-aged woman with a mean face snorted coldly: "My wife is too kind-hearted. In my opinion, you have worked hard to raise her. If she doesn't respect you, it would be unfilial."

The companion next to her pulled her. After all, she was the future Princess Su. She should speak with caution. It would be a big sin not to smile nowadays.

But then I heard a young woman lower her voice and said: "I heard that the reason why King Su was willing to marry her was because she used deceitful means to have an affair with him. She just happened to be caught by the emperor, so King Su had to marry her."

Marry…”

Another person around him immediately came over curiously, and also lowered his voice and said: "Isn't it that King Su just wanted to make Miss Su angry..."

"Hey! Do you believe this? How could the wise and powerful His Highness Prince Su do such a childish thing? Let me see, maybe she did something..."

Thanks to various storybooks, everyone had a bad impression of Shen Mingjiao, the sudden appearance of Princess Su, and felt that Prince Su had no choice but to marry her.

Even if some people don't believe it at first, after hearing more, they will subconsciously feel that Shen Mingjiao is indeed a bad woman who is good at scheming.

Mrs. Li picked up the tea cup and covered the corners of her slightly raised lips.

Although it is an indisputable fact that Shen Mingjiao married into Prince Su's palace, and the Marquis also told her that she must win over him, but thinking of the face in her memory, she didn't want to make it easy for that little bitch.

Shen Mingyan listened to these people buzzing about Shen Mingjiao, feeling secretly happy in her heart, but she couldn't help but despise herself.

But at this moment, a servant came to report that someone from the Ministry of Etiquette had come to give the fourth girl a wedding dress and other gifts.

Suddenly, the faces of everyone who were discussing excitedly froze. The entire flower hall seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Mrs. Li quickly reacted and smiled and asked someone to send the things directly to the fourth girl's Rose Garden, saying that this was the custom for princes to get married.

Everyone was relieved when they heard this, right? This is just a necessary process for a royal wedding, it's no big deal.

However, at the next moment, another servant came to report that the chief steward of Prince Su's Mansion, Eunuch Hua, had arrived, followed by a large group of guards carrying boxes, saying that he was here to deliver betrothal gifts to the fourth girl on the orders of Prince Su.

Li stood up in a hurry and followed the servants out of the door. The others also widened their eyes in surprise and followed behind curiously.

At the gate of the Hou Mansion, Hua Gongzheng ordered people to move boxes of things into the house, which made the surrounding neighbors watch for a while. At the same time, they couldn't help but wonder, wasn't it rumored that Prince Su was forced to marry this girl Shen?

As if that was not enough, Mr. Hua took the thick gift list handed over by his entourage, cleared his throat, and began to sing and read loudly:

"A five-foot-tall red coral..."

"Ten pieces of shark gauze brocade..."

"One thousand taels of gold..."

"The authentic painting of Saint Wu Daozi as a gift to his son, the Heavenly King..."

Every time he uttered a sentence, the guard carrying the box gently opened a corner in response to the situation, holding it in an extremely high-profile manner. However, everyone was already stunned by the variety of rare treasures.

This is not a subordinate job, it is an existence that wants to empty out the family's wealth! Just pick out any item here and it can be used as a family treasure of some small families.

Li and others met the rows of guards carrying boxes. She was about to step forward to speak when she heard the high-pitched voice of Father-in-law Hua at the door.

"A piece of top-grade Laokeng glass weighing ten pounds..."

"A hot spring resort in the suburbs of Beijing..."

"Thousands of acres of good farmland..."

"One hundred and eight shops on Beijing East Street..."

Everyone's eyes widened with every additional sentence they heard. At the end of the sentence, they were so mentally weak that they almost fell to the ground with their legs weak.

It's not that they haven't seen the world, it's just that these things are too valuable.

Not to mention anything else, the 108 shops in the east of the city generate countless income every year just from collecting rent.

At this moment, everyone deeply understood why rumors were untrustworthy.

Li's face turned green and white as she watched these priceless objects pass in front of her. Comparing this, the betrothal gift sent by Pei Ji before seemed like a joke.

Shen Mingyan's nails dug deeply into her palms. Today was supposed to be a great day for her, but right now, Shen Mingjiao was stealing the spotlight.

At this moment, the guilt for taking away the marriage disappeared, replaced by a shallow hatred.

Mrs. Li suppressed her emotions and ordered people to carry these things to the large warehouse.

At this time, Father-in-law Hua came over after reading the gift list, looked at her with a smile, and said unceremoniously:

"Don't worry, madam. These things are for our princess. Naturally, an old slave must deliver them to the princess's courtyard in person, and then the princess will take them away when she gets married."

Li's face was a little ugly when his thoughts were exposed, but thinking about the other party's identity, he had to force a smile and answer.

…

In Qiangwei Courtyard, Shen Mingjiao had just sent away the people from the Ministry of Etiquette and was arranging the accommodation for the two correctional mothers.

I saw Mr. Hua walking in with a smile. When he saw her, the smile on his face became even brighter. He took a few steps forward to salute him.

Shen Mingjiao hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "Father-in-law, there is no need to be polite."

This was her old friend in her previous life. It can be said that she had much more contact with Mr. Hua than Feng Lisheng.

Then he ordered Haitang: "Bring the sour plum soup hanging in the well."

Eunuch Hua raised his eyebrows and said excitedly: "The princess is indeed infatuated with His Highness. She even found out about the trivial matter that I like to drink sour plum soup."
