Chapter 200 Shangguan Yunting attends Shen Jun’s wedding
Shen Nan ran over and shouted: "Sister, brother-in-law, grandma wants you to come over for the feast."
"Yun Ting, let's have the feast at home! I'm worried that if you go, everyone will rely on you for food."
Shangguan Yunting said lovingly, "You decide what to do. I'll do whatever I want."
"I'll go talk to grandma."
Shen Rou left the courtyard and came to the bustling banquet hall. The guests had already taken their seats. Grandma came forward and asked in confusion, "Where's Yun Ting? Why isn't he coming to the banquet?"
"Grandma, let's eat at home! How can we eat here when everyone is watching him?"
"I hadn't thought of that. Let's go and take a look."
"Big brother, second brother, quickly bring a table of food over."
"coming."
At this time, a carriage came slowly and stopped not far away. Behind the county magistrate, several people walked slowly. Everyone looked sideways, guessing the other party's identity.
Chen Jinzhou saw Shen Rou and quickly bowed. "I am Chen Jinzhou, I pay my respects to the princess. Princess, do you still remember me?"
"Remember, remember, you are Chen Zhubu."
"Your Highness is well-informed and has a strong memory, I admire you.
"My Lady, this is Magistrate Qu, who was recently transferred from Furong County. I learned today that you are having a wedding and have come to offer my congratulations."
"I, Qu Jing, pay my respects to Princess Furong. A small token of my respect is not enough."
The servant came to Shen Rou with the brocade box. Shen Rou quickly took it and handed it to Su Yu, smiling and saying, "County Magistrate Qu, you are so polite."
"this is necessary."
"County Magistrate Qu, let me introduce them. These two are my grandparents."
"Congratulations, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen."
"Thank you, Magistrate Qu."
"Please come in, Magistrate Qu."
"Mrs. Shen, please. Mr. Shen, please."
Shen Rou led them to her own yard. The villagers were shocked to hear that the county magistrate had come to congratulate them.
"Mrs. Wu did a good thing by bringing home the three children abandoned by her son-in-law. Otherwise, her family wouldn't be living such a good life today."
"Isn't it? If they didn't have such a capable granddaughter like her, their family would be worse off than ours. Now her family's status is too high for us to reach."
"It's just that she's out of her league. Xiaorou will marry Prince Mu soon, and after that she'll be his consort."
"I would be happy for my daughter to be Prince Mu's concubine, not to mention his wife. It's a pity that the prince can't see my daughter's good qualities."
"His aunt, you are so mean. You are thinking of finding a concubine for the prince before others are married."
"Isn't it normal for a prince to have concubines? Maybe he has countless concubines in his house now, but we just don't know about it."
"It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, let alone a wealthy and powerful prince."
"Did you see that? His Royal Highness Prince Mu is also here for the feast. He's so handsome."
"Why didn't I see it when?"
"About an hour later, he went to Xiaorou's yard and never came out."
"Xiao Rou must be worried that the prince will come out and look at other girls, so she doesn't let the prince come out to meet everyone."
"Definitely."
"Xiao Rou, that girl is just so-so. How could a prince look at her? My daughter is much prettier than her. Why can't she find a prince or a crown prince?"
"Does your daughter have Xiaorou's abilities? She must have something special to be liked by the prince. What else can your daughter do besides feeding pigs and chickens?"
"My girl can do so many things. It's a pity that she hasn't met a prince with vision."
"Yes, yes, your daughter is as beautiful as a fairy. It's just that Your Highness is short-sighted, okay?"
Several women were talking to each other.
Shen Rou and the others came to the main hall, where the table was filled with sumptuous dishes and the aroma was fragrant.
Shangguan Yunting quickly stood up when he saw his grandparents coming.
"Grandma and Grandpa, congratulations."
"Yun Ting, thank you for your hard work coming from Youzhou."
"It's not hard. I'm very happy to be able to attend Shen Jun's wedding."
"Yun Ting, this is Magistrate Qu and Chief Clerk Chen."
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness Prince Mu."
"No need to greet you, both of you."
Chen Jinzhou bowed and said, "Thank you, Prince Mu, for your support."
"County Magistrate Chen, you're welcome. Your kindness has made the marriage between me and the princess possible. I would like to thank you."
"I don't deserve it."
Shen Rou looked at Shangguan Yunting in surprise. He smiled slightly and said, "Didn't you tell me that he helped you get the pass?"
"You still remember this."
"I remember everything about you."
Shen Rou glanced at everyone, feeling a little embarrassed. Shangguan Yunting saw Shen Rou was shy and raised the corner of his mouth.
"Everyone, please take your seats! The food is getting cold."
"Grandma and Grandpa, please take a seat."
"You are a prince, so you should take the seat!"
"You are the elders in the family, and elders should sit in the upper seat."
"Grandma and Grandpa, Magistrate Qu, and County Magistrate Chen, please take your seats quickly. The food is getting cold."
Seeing Shangguan Yunting's respect for the Shen family, County Magistrate Qu and Chen Jinzhou thought to themselves that he should take good care of the Shen family in the future. With His Royal Highness Prince Mu's support, their career in the officialdom will surely be smooth sailing.
Shen Rou looked at Shen Dashan and his brother standing there, not knowing where to put their hands and feet, and hurriedly said, "Uncle, are you going to sit here, or go and greet the guests with the bride and groom?"
"Xiao Rou, there are a lot of guests outside. Please help us greet the prince and Magistrate Qu while we go outside to greet the other guests."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll be here."
"Your Majesty, Magistrate Qu, please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, please send someone to call me."
"Uncle, go and do your work, don't worry about me."
Brother Shen Dashan sighed deeply after leaving the courtyard, "The prince has such a powerful aura that I don't know where to put my hands and feet when standing next to him."
"Me too. If I eat at the same table with them, I'll definitely get indigestion. It's more comfortable to eat with the villagers."
Everyone in the house started to eat and the atmosphere was harmonious.
County Magistrate Qu was chatting with Shangguan Yunting, and Shangguan Yunting was picking up food for Shen Rou while dealing with County Magistrate Qu.
It was even more lively outside. Shen Jun toasted everyone with a wine glass. The villagers had not had such a sumptuous banquet for a long time and were busy eating.
Shen Jun came over to toast Shangguan Yunting and the others. After a round of drinking, they were already drunk. Seeing this, Shen Rou hurriedly ordered Xu Yang to send him back to his room.
After the meal, the Shen family sent away County Magistrate Qu and County Magistrate Chen.
Shen Rou said to her grandparents, "Grandma and Grandpa, the restaurant I opened in the capital has been decorated. Tomorrow, Yun Ting, Xiao Xue and I will leave first. You can go to Yunzhou after you have packed up the house. Once you have finished all the things in the capital, I will send someone to pick you up and go to the capital to play."
"Let's talk about it after we finish dealing with the things in the capital."
"it is good."
"I'll take Yun Ting to see my mother right away."
"Go! Tell her you'll be married soon, and ask her to bless you from heaven."
"Grandma, let's go."
Shen Rou thought her sister would go to the capital to research how to cure Shangguan Rui's leg, so she quickly ordered, "Xu Yang, send a message to Chunyan and Xia Xin. Tell them to clean up the other courtyard and prepare it for my sister to live in. Then, convert the wing into a pharmacy and stock it with various medicinal herbs."
"I obey my orders."
Shen Rou and Shangguan Yunting rode along the small path to the Shen family's grave. The grave had been renovated with bricks and a tombstone with inscriptions was erected. There was no other grave of such high quality in the entire Furong County.
They came to the tombstone. Shen Rou looked at Shangguan Yunting. They looked at each other and smiled slightly. "Mom, his name is Shangguan Yunting. He is your future son-in-law."
Shangguan Yunting stared at the words engraved on the stele. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes revealed a deep respect.
He bowed and said, "Mother-in-law, please accept my greetings. Xiaorou and I will be married soon. Please wish us happiness."
"Don't worry, I promise to treat Xiaorou well in the future, love her, protect her, and respect her."
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the surrounding weeds rustled, as if Shen was responding to them.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, for your help."
The two stayed in front of the tomb for a while and then set off to go back.
