Guo Lingsi said softly: "On this cold day, how can my mother think about coming over?"
"It's not like we're here to see how you're preparing. ”
Mrs. Guo looked at Guo Lingsi and said: "Lord Feng has sent out all the posts in the past few days, I thought it was just a small banquet and lively, so I allowed you to come to practice, if I had known that I would do a big job, I wouldn't dare to let you take this errand." ”
Feng Qiao smiled when he heard this: "Auntie's words are not right, Sister Guo is amazing, you see that the whole house is handled smoothly by Sister Guo, just wait for the guests to come." ”
"What Qiao'er said is that I went back to the house yesterday and told my mother about it, and my mother also praised Sisi for her ability, and said that I should also learn more skills from Sisi. Liao Yihuan also chimed in.
Mrs. Guo listened to the words of the two, thinking that her daughter could be praised by Helan Jun so much, and she felt a little complacent, but her face was not revealing anything, she just chuckled: "You two girls know how much to help Ling Si speak, she has a few pounds and taels I don't know as a mother, I did teach her some, but in the first time she started it herself, I was afraid that she was not good enough, so I came to take a look." ”
Guo Lingsi was said by Mrs. Guo, and she didn't complain, but half leaned on her mother's arm and smiled happily: "My mother still understands me, and I'm also a little worried. ”
A few people talked and laughed in the room for a while, and seeing that Mrs. Guo seemed to have something to say, Feng Qiao found an excuse, pulled Liao Yihuan to avoid, and left the space to Mrs. Guo's mother and daughter, and only after the two left, Mrs. Guo looked Guo Lingsi up and down, and asked in a low voice, "How are you doing these days?"
Guo Lingsi nodded: "Qingqing and Sister Liao treat me very well. ”
Mrs. Guo said softly: "They are all good children, and this time it is thanks to them that they can help you out of the siege, so you have to organize this birthday banquet for Qingqing as a thank you gift." ”
"My daughter knows. ”
Mrs. Guo shook her head when she heard this: "No, you don't know. Although it is said that this time is to hold a birthday banquet for Qingqing, but your Second Uncle Feng has just been promoted to an official position, and in that position, everyone in the court is looking sideways, and it is inevitable that some people will be staring at the things in the back house of this mansion. ”
"I have inquired with your grandfather and father, and on the day of Qingqing's birthday, I am afraid that it is not only the ladies and ladies of the various provinces who come to congratulate the gift, but also some people in the court, Qingqing's birthday is just before the winter solstice, and I am afraid that there will be more people at that time, so the things that should be prepared should not be ambiguous at all, and even some must be prepared as well as possible, so as not to make people feel stingy, let alone make any mistakes, so as not to be criticized. ”
Now there is no hostess in the Feng family, and there is not even a relative who can help, although Guo Lingsi said that she came out to avoid trouble, but in the end, she was invited by Feng Qiao to organize the birthday banquet for her, if this banquet is done well, Guo Lingsi will naturally be praised by others, but if it is not done well, when Feng Qizhou's father and daughter fall into the mouth, Guo Lingsi will not be good.
Therefore, in public and private, Mrs. Guo hopes that this birthday banquet can be held perfectly.
Guo Lingsi had already guessed that someone else might come that day, but now that she got Mrs. Guo's words, she hurriedly said: "My daughter understands, I didn't just prepare a banquet to entertain those ladies and misses, but also specially discussed with Second Uncle Feng and prepared a banquet in the outer hall to entertain male guests. ”
"It's just the first time I've done this kind of thing alone, and I'm afraid that I'll miss something, so why don't my mother take a look at it for me, and see if there's anything else to pay attention to. ”
Mrs. Guo naturally would not refuse, so Guo Lingsi took all the things that she had written down on paper before and showed them to Mrs. Guo, and then whispered about the preparations for the past few days.
Mrs. Guo looked at the things in her hand and listened carefully, and after Guo Lingsi's words were finished, Mrs. Guo thought about it carefully, and found that she didn't find anything to add, and couldn't help but show relief on her face.
"I was worried that you weren't thoughtful enough, but now I found out that you have really grown up, seeing you like this, my mother can rest assured, and when this time is over, your marriage with Yin Wulang should also be decided, and when you get married, you will be able to manage your husband's back house well and not let yourself suffer. ”
Guo Lingsi's face paused, and she lowered her eyes and said, "Mother, my daughter doesn't want to marry yet..."
Seeing her appearance, Mrs. Guo pursed the corners of her mouth.
Guo Lingsi was a little angry and hurriedly whispered: "I have never met that Yin Wulang, and I don't know what kind of person he is, although my mother said that he is an excellent man, but last time that Zheng Sanlang ...... Mother, I know that you love me the most, but I don't want to make a marriage so hastily, it's better to wait a little longer for family matters..."
"What are you waiting for, do you not like that Yin Wulang, or are you still not dead to Wen Luxian?"
After Mrs. Guo finished speaking, she saw Guo Lingsiqiao's face turn white, although she felt sorry for her, her face still sank and said: "The matter of Zheng Sanlang before was careless between me and your father, and after the Yin family courted this time, I will tell your father and let him personally check the Yin family." ”
"That Yin Wulang is a good learner, he has a good temperament, the Yin family is a big family, and he is the most important family, and Yin Wulang has been studying with Mr. Suiyun in Hanshan Courtyard earlier, and there has never been any messy things around him. ”
"If you just feel that you are not familiar with Yin Wulang, I can ask your father to let you meet him in person, if you feel that Yin Wulang is not in line with you, your father and I can also go back to this marriage for you and find another one for you, but Ling Si, if you are unwilling to marry because you are still worried about the Wen family's kid, then I advise you to die as soon as possible. ”
"Your father and I have already made a decision, even if we keep you in the boudoir, we will never marry you to that Wen Luxian!"
Guo Lingsi's figure flickered, and he looked up at Mrs. Guo in disbelief: "Mother......"
Mrs. Guo was very distressed when she saw her crumbling appearance, but when she thought of Wen Luxian and the bastard things that the Wen family had done, she said with a cold face and a tough attitude: "I know that you are reluctant to him, and I also know that you have affection for him, but listen to it, people live in this world, not because they are affectionate, they can drink water and feed themselves, you still have a family, as well as parents and brothers, and children in the future......"
"Have you ever thought about what situation you would have ended up in if Qingqing hadn't lifted the siege for you this time, and have you ever thought about Wen Luxian before doing these things?"
