The maid Cuiyun, who was near the carriage door, silently picked up the handkerchief at Shen Yinqiu's feet, patted it clean and handed it back to Shen Jinqiu.
She was the only maid in the carriage allowed to come up and wait on her.
It was so cold outside, so this was an enviable job, but the atmosphere of smoke and bombs was really uncomfortable.
She would rather stay outside the carriage to enjoy the breeze.
Zhang and Shen Jinqiu kept staring at Shen Yinqiu, as if they wanted to pounce on her and skin her.
Faced with such pressure, Shen Yinqiu poured himself a cup of tea, treating them as if they were transparent.
Just when Shen Jinqiu was about to have a seizure, Mrs.
Zhang held his hand tightly.
She looked at Mr.
Zhang dissatisfied, their eyes met, and Mr.
Zhang gently shook his head at her.
After that, the carriage was quiet.
Listening to the faint noise coming from outside, no one spoke anymore.
Until the wheels stopped turning, the driver said respectfully from outside: "Madam, Miss, the theater has arrived."
Cuiyun got out of the car first, then helped Zhang and Shen Jinqiu down.
Shen Yinqiu was the last one, walking out alone, holding the door panel with one hand, raising the hem of his cloak and skirt with the other hand, stepping on the step stool, and got out of the car gracefully and naturally.
The Zhang mother and daughter who wanted to see her in embarrassment were not able to do so, so they snorted and turned around.
Only then did Qianguang Qianyun catch up from behind.
Seeing that his master was safe and sound, he covered his mouth and gasped for breath.
"What's going on?"
Shen Yinqiu led them behind Zhang and asked quietly while paying attention to the crowd around him.
Qianguang calmed down his breathing, and except for his face which was still a little red, his expression was as usual.
She glanced at the maids behind her and said, "Someone is causing trouble.
Are you okay, Master?
As soon as he saw them coming around, he knew he was going to be a monster.
Fortunately, Liu Da and Liu Er came over and scared them away."
"I'm fine."
Shen Yinqiu shook his head.
There were many people coming and going in this big theater, but they all stayed aside and did not dare to approach the avenue between them.
They were not too far away from Zhang, following five or six steps behind.
It is said to be a grand theater, which means these three words are written on the plaque above.
When you step in, you will find that the layout is similar to a teahouse, that is, there is a large stage set up in the middle, and the rest are tables and chairs, with hot tea, melons and fruits.
The door was guarded by several guards wearing family regalia, but they did not prevent others from entering.
There were also guards at the entrance on the second floor, as well as four or five maids.
One of them came forward to salute Mrs.
Zhang and then led them upstairs.
Shen Yinqiu lagged a little behind, scanned the surrounding layout, stepped on the strong wooden board and climbed up step by step.
When he reached the second floor, he found that many people had already arrived, about five or six families.
Mrs.
Zhang came forward to greet the general's wife.
As soon as they said hello to each other, she didn't know what she saw.
She was a little surprised and lowered her voice and said: "Mrs.
Hou is here too.
It's rare to be here, and it's because of Madam's dignity."
The Marquis's wife she mentioned had a distinguished status.

She was the eldest princess of the current dynasty and the emperor's sister.
She had a title and real power.
He also has a hot temper, and few people dare to make friends with him, so he avoids him.
But where her identity is, there are many people who want to curry favor with her, but the eldest princess rarely pays attention to them.
She married Queen Beining and became Princess Beining, but she was a stepmother.
The muddy water here is so deep that no one understands it.
In addition, she was very ambitious, so she got pregnant not long after her marriage, and gave birth to Linzi, who was three years younger than the prince of Beining.
Although the child left by the former princess was asked by King Beining to be named the crown prince, the possibility of the eldest princess's child inheriting the title is extremely high.
Because the late princess's child was a sick child and could die anytime, anywhere.
I heard he was still very rough, so he followed his mother who came from the martial arts world.
Come to think of it, King Beining just married a rough woman who was a provocateur.
Zhang only remembered the background of the Marquis and his wife in an instant.
The general's wife did not look at the Marquis and his wife.
She glanced at Shen Jinqiu, who was dressed in a very unique combination, and said selfishly: " Madam Hou also came here to look for the Crown Princess."
Zhang's heart was in turmoil, "It's the prince" "Otherwise, who else is there?"
Lu whispered, looking at Shen Yinqiu for some reason.
She remembered that Shen Yinqiu had a good relationship with Wan Qiyan If the other party is willing, she can help with this matter.
Zhang subconsciously pulled Shen Jinqiu, her daughter could not marry that kind of man and remain a widow.
However, she noticed Lu's gaze and some thoughts came to her mind.
Many people came one after another, and Mrs.
Zhang couldn't always stand in front of Mrs.
Lu, so she took her daughter to the arranged seat and sat down.
Shen Yinqiu was about to follow when he was suddenly stopped by Mr.
Lu's gentle call.
She stopped and didn't look at Zhang, who wouldn't give any response anyway.
He saluted Ms.
Lu Yingying who was sitting there and said, "Hello, Mrs.
Lu."
Mrs.
Lu called her closer and asked softly: "Is Miss Shen Er interested in someone?"
This question made Shen Yinqiu's head full of questions, and at the same time she became slightly vigilant.
She lowered her head shyly as if she was embarrassed, and whispered: "Back to Madam, Yinqiu doesn't have it."
"So, what do you think of the prince of the Hou family?"
Shen Yinqiu, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, looked confused.
Who knew who he was?
Did the general's wife want to marry him as a matchmaker?
What the hell, shouldn't he ask Madam Zhang about this?
Of course, if Madam Zhang is a good person, she might get into trouble.
Thinking back to the fact that she returned to the capital all the way from the south of the Yangtze River, wasn't the main reason why she wanted to get married?
For a time, Shen Yinqiu had a lot of complaints in his mind.
Seeing that her face was full of doubts, Mrs.
Lu frowned slightly, wondering if this little girl was just faking it.
"What do you think?
If you are interested, I will help you."
Although the status of this concubine is indeed not high enough, for the sake of her grandmother's family, it is not too low.

Shen Yinqiu's heart trembled when she heard the news, and she said nervously: "Yinqiu doesn't understand what the general's wife means, and I don't know the prince of the Hou family.
It would be better for my wife to discuss these matters with my mother first."
"You don't know the prince of the Hou family?"
Mrs.
Lu did not dare to raise her voice, but her expression showed how surprised she was.
But this kind of surprise was even more strange in Shen Yinqiu's eyes.
She looked at Mr.
Lu suspiciously.
She must know the identity of the Crown Prince of the Hou Mansion.
She was a concubine.
Could it be that she wanted her to be a concubine?
No, she would rather marry an honest man from an average family background.
"Madam, I have just returned to Beijing not long ago, and I am not very familiar with it.
I really don't know the prince of the Hou family."
After speaking, she mustered up her courage and said, "But, I will not marry someone as a concubine.
Thank you, general." lady."
Mrs.
Lu thought about what this mess was, "If you marry, you will naturally become the princess."
Shen Yinqiu took a step back.
When she was the imperial concubine, she saw that a general's young wife was so overwhelmed by all the money that she wanted to marry, let alone a imperial concubine.
Even if she had suffered a crime in the general's palace, she didn't need to compensate for such a thing.
Knowing that this matter was weird, she refused to agree, and just smiled and said: "Don't joke, Madam General.
If it's not a joke, I will obey my parents' orders on all marriage matters."
The implication was that it was better not to discuss it with her.
Mrs.
Lu stared at her deeply, unable to tell that she was lying.
Suddenly, she felt a little surprised and said, "Your eyes are healed."
Shen Yinqiu chuckled and nodded, "Go back to Madam, your eyes will be fine after the injury is healed."
Are these people so slow to react?
They only discover the problem with her eyes after the conversation.
Madam Lu took one more look at her and let her go back to Madam Zhang.
This is what happened.
Wan Qiyan's attitude towards her didn't seem like he didn't know her.
Could there be some hidden secret?
In short, she wanted Wan Qiyan to marry as soon as possible, so that her daughter would give up Xiao Xiang.
As she walked, Shen Yinqiu murmured what the general's wife wanted to do.
But she didn't know that just now she and Mr.
Lu were so close and talking, and someone looked at her and made her think too much.
She came to the table where Zhang was sitting and sat down a seat away from Shen Jinqiu.
Mrs.
Zhang glanced at her and asked, "What did the general's wife tell you?"
Shen Yinqiu felt someone was watching her, so she turned around and saw a sweet-looking woman, who was full of malice towards her.
Suddenly she felt that God was playing tricks on her.
Why did she always make enemies for no reason?
But when she heard Zhang's question, she looked away and replied: "Nothing, just asking me whether my health is okay and whether my eyes can see."

Mrs.
Zhang had no doubts, and felt that she was right.
Besides this, what else could they say.
Shen Jinqiu was very able to maintain his airs in front of outsiders, and did not show any expression to Shen Yinqiu.
He sat quietly on the side with a smile on his face, which looked very eye-catching.
Shen Yinqiu was more casual, eating the snacks on the table slowly, naturally with a little elegance, and not looking offensive.
The troupe hadn't started yet, and guests were still coming up the stairs.
Her whole back felt cold under that gaze, and she pretended not to care and said, "Mom, who is that family next door?"
They all spoke very quietly, and there was a lot of noise in the theater, so they were not afraid of being heard by the people around them.
Mrs.
Zhang turned her head and glanced at her, and nodded at her rival with a smile.
The other party returned the gift, but she was no longer a young girl.
The fight between them naturally rose to another level.
Then she said: "Mrs.
Zuo Xiang and her daughter, why are you asking this?"
"It's nothing.
I feel like they're looking at us unfriendly."
Shen Yinqiu very cleverly added someone behind me, including Mr.
Zhang.
Sure enough, the look of being mean to her before appeared on Zhang's face, "If one day she becomes friendly to us, that will be when we are in bad luck."
Shen Yinqiu snorted, picked up the hot tea that Qian Guang poured for her and sipped it slowly, muttering to herself: "I didn't expect the tea in this theater to be so high-quality."
Qianguang leaned close to her ear and explained: "Miss, it should be specially prepared by the master."
"Is that so?
Go and ask Liu Da to go outside and find out who the prince of the Hou family is and what his character is like."
Shen Yinqiu always felt that it was not easy for the general's wife to mention this person for no reason.
The expression on his face was that of the prince of the Hou family who she must know.
Who is causing trouble for her behind her back?
If the prince of the Hou family didn't have any strange problems, he would probably even look down on her as a person if he wanted her to be the prince's concubine
