Chapter 300: Guest
Mrs. He took the maid and daughter-in-law to wait for Jiang Xian at the door with a smile. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing Jiang Xian, he greeted her, wanted to take her hand, paused, gave up again, and said politely: "Why does the county lord have time to come to me for lunch today? Today we can only have a simple meal, and tomorrow we will have lunch together. ”
Since everyone had lunch together that day, Li Changqing has not had lunch in the inner courtyard.
Jiang Xian happened to be dining in the West Cross Courtyard.
It was the first time I had come to Mrs. He for lunch.
Jiang Xian couldn't help but feel a little hot when he heard it.
If it weren't for Li Qian's absence at home, and there were few people at home, how could she think of coming to Mrs. He to pass the time and contact Mrs. He by the way.
"It's me who came too quickly!" Jiang Xian smiled, "I'm bored at home, so I want to come to Madame's place to hang out." ”
"It should be, it should be. "Mrs. He is still quite happy.
She is not good at socializing, Li Changqing doesn't let her go out to socialize, her son was taken to Li Changqing at the age of three to educate herself, and her daughter invited a female official from the palace, she doesn't go out much, she is not very easy to speak, and she is very lonely in the backyard, wishing that someone would come to talk to her.
Mrs. He and Jiang Xian smiled and entered the hall side by side.
The round table in the banquet room to the east was already full of dishes.
Jiang Xian looked at it with mixed feelings in his heart.
The last time she came, it was all a square table.
Square tables are divided into upper and lower tables.
Even if Mrs. He is a step-room, she is also a famous matchmaker, and she is married and carried into the door of the Li family, and she is also a serious mother-in-law. By courtesy, she should have sat down at the table. And Jiang Xian, although she enjoys the princess's salary, but that is also the royal compensation for her, and in terms of rank, she is loved by the queen mother no matter how she is the county lord and not the princess - if the royal family wants to give her princess etiquette, she will naturally be named a princess, and if she is not crowned a princess, she can't put out the princess's money. This is a great taboo.
Therefore, the grades are clear, and the etiquette cannot be mixed.
Whether she is with Mrs. He or the Li family, there is no distinction between monarchs and ministers, and she should be courteous to Mrs. He. But Mrs. He replaced the square table with a round table, making the etiquette between the two no longer so distinct......
No matter how cowardly Mrs. He behaved, she was very kind to her.
Jiang Xian took the tea from the maid's hand and handed it to Mrs. He personally.
Mrs. He was flattered, hurriedly stood up, and said, "How can this be made!
"You are my mother-in-law, why can't you do it. Jiang Xian smiled, sat Mrs. He down, and said, "What do you have to do in the afternoon? Do you play leaf cards? I play leaf cards with the people around me when I have nothing to do in the palace." I don't know if Madame likes it or not, what's the difference between the way the outside and the palace play......"
Mrs. He was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I thought that the county lord would read and write when he was idle! I didn't expect to play leaf cards too! When I was at my mother's house, I often played cards with my mother." But after getting married, there are a lot of things, so there are fewer fights. If the county lord wants to play cards, I'll help the county lord find two more people. It just so happened that I didn't have anything to do in the afternoon. Even if there is something, there is Mama Miao, she just looks at it. As she spoke, she called her most considerate Mama Cheng in, "You have another one over there, and we will go to Xiangzhangxuan to play leaf cards in the afternoon." ”
There is also a flower hall called Xiang Zhangxuan in the inner house of the East Cross Courtyard, which is usually used by Mrs. He to entertain guests. There are several camphor trees planted outside the flower hall that are higher than the eaves, and it is very cool in summer.
Jiang Xian readily agreed.
After the two of them had dinner, they drank tea in the flower hall.
Spikelets set up a few tables.
Jiang Xian's side arranged for lovers to make up the corners.
After trying to play a few games, Jiang Xian gradually figured out the card style of Mrs. He and Mama Cheng, and had a bottom in his heart, and glanced at the lover, and decided that the two would cooperate and lose a few dollars to Mrs. He and Mama Cheng, which could be regarded as a release of goodwill to Mrs. He.
Mrs. He fought very seriously.
Back and forth, everyone won and lost, which wasted Jiang Xian's mind.
Jiang Xian couldn't help laughing, feeling that he had been in the palace for a long time, and his thinking had been imprisoned by the palace set.
Now that she is married to the Li family and has become the daughter-in-law of the Li family, she should also change her thinking.
You can't always get stuck in the original quagmire and not come out.
She took advantage of the lover's shuffling to ask Li Dongzhi.
Who knew that before she could speak, a little maid hurriedly ran over, gave Jiang Xian and Mrs. He a hasty salute and said, "County Lord, Madam, the third lady of Lord Shi's family came to visit Miss Gao, look, do we want to set up a banquet to entertain Miss Shi?"
Mrs. He was a little surprised when she heard this, but she didn't pay much attention to it, but said, "Since I came to visit Miss Gao, I will be entertained by Miss Gao." However, you still have to go to the kitchen to tell Miss Gao what kind of banquet she wants, and the account can be recorded in the public middle school. ”
The maid laughed and walked away.
Jiang Xian couldn't help frowning secretly.
This maid looks very ordinary, she shouldn't be the big girl next to Mrs. He, but she dares to give Mrs. He ideas when Mama Cheng and others are present. And Mrs. He didn't think so, and gave money to Gao Miaorong to save face. The third lady of the Shi family was even more strange, when she came to visit Miss Gao at the Li family, she didn't come to greet Mrs. He, and Mrs. He also looked accustomed to it.
This is the basic etiquette of being a human being.
Even if the Li family can ignore these, the Shi family shouldn't be so unruly!
Even if Jiang Xian didn't care about these little things, he felt that something was wrong with this matter.
Mrs. He was afraid of snubbing Jiang Xian, and explained to her with a smile: "That Lord Shi is the lord of Taiyuan Mansion, in charge of the money and grain taxes of Taiyuan Mansion, and he is a good person in front of Lord Li of Taiyuan Governor, and the old lady's maiden family is Fenyang.
"Lord Nash has three daughters and one son.
"The eldest lady and the second lady are out of the pavilion, and now only the third lady and the eldest young master are around.
"The third lady of their family has just arrived in the spring of this year, and like her mother, she is a shrewd person. And Miao Rong had a good time. If you have nothing to do, you will come over to hang out.
"You also know that the girl's family can't talk to people like me, and she came to greet me, but I didn't know how to talk to her, so I simply let Miaorong receive her.
"This girl is down, generous, and not afraid of life.
"Sometimes I meet the winter solstice at Miaorong, and I can say a few words with the winter solstice. Speaking of this, Mrs. He sighed, "Winter Solstice, this child follows me, timid, afraid of socializing, she follows Miaorong, it is better than following me." I can also talk to those ladies and ladies in the city, and learn more. lest you marry someone and don't know how to deal with your in-laws, and you won't be able to please your husband. ”
Jiang Xian couldn't help muttering in his heart: I think the winter solstice is much stronger than you!
But she muttered and muttered, and was still very speechless at Mrs. He's cowardly abandonment.
She couldn't help but pause in her move.
Dear friends, today's update.
ps: It's a little late to add more at night, so let's get up tomorrow and watch it!
