Chapter 663: Testing the Waters
Gao Miaorong was so disdainful that her face involuntarily showed a slightly strange look. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The eldest lady of the Niu family thought that Gao Miaorong was embarrassed to squeeze over to get food, and said to her with a smile: "Sister, this roasted scallop is really delicious." Go get one and try it, I'll get some later!"
Gao Miaorong couldn't help but sneer and said, "No matter how delicious it is, I won't beg for food like a beggar." ”
The eldest lady of the Niu family opened her mouth wide after eating half of it, and looked at her in dismay.
Gao Miaorong didn't think about it deeply, and suddenly felt an unstoppable sense of pouring out in her heart, and said: "I'm afraid you don't know, right? In the past, when the porridge shack set up porridge, those refugees also begged for food around the soup kitchen. I'm a literate person, and I can't do anything like that. ”
The eldest lady of the Niu family slowly put down the chopsticks in her hand, watched Shui Su lead a few maids over, and smiled and distributed the food baked by the cook to everyone, so as to avoid crowding. In particular, Mrs. Ding, Mrs. Li and others arranged for maids to make a special trip to serve, and the two ladies also smiled and sat back at the table under the tree while eating and talking.
She couldn't help but say slowly, "Sister Gao, have you ever seen the scene of soup kitchen? What is it like when there is less soup kitchen? But Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Li don't care, it shouldn't be rude, right?"
Miss Niu said very sincerely.
Gao Miaorong felt offended, and her face was so angry that her face turned purple.
Although Niu Jiuye is Li Changqing's subordinate, his former wife starved to death before he became a bandit, when Miss Niu was born, Niu Jiuye had already gained a firm foothold by Li Changqing's side, and the family could afford to use a maidservant, and the life of an ordinary rich lady was not as delicate as hers. Gao Miaorong is different. She followed Gao Miaohua to escape from the desert and found Gao Fuyu here. She has experienced the most unbearable life. The eldest lady of the Niu family has only seen beggars from afar, where has she ever been to a porridge shed? Where do you know how to make porridge?
Is the eldest lady of the Niu family sarcastic, she was born in poverty?
Could it be that the female relatives of the Li family, who are usually good friends with her, see her like this in private?
The more Gao Miaorong thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt like she was on pins and needles.
But she couldn't just walk away.
Today is Jiang Xian's treat, she is Jiang Xian's sister-in-law. Li Changqing is dignified on weekdays, and he looks kind and generous in front of others, and everyone thinks that he is better to Li Lin than his own son, and they all say that Li Lin owes Li Changqing a lot, and Li Lin should honor Li Changqing better than his father in the future. If she doesn't show up at the banquet hosted by Jiang Xian, the eight women will definitely say that she doesn't know what to do and doesn't give Jiang Xian face.
She had no choice but to take a deep breath, suppress her hatred for the eldest lady of the Niu family, and give her words back: "So there are times when people like Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Li lose their identities because they don't know what to do. We need to be warned!"
"Are you saying that neither Mrs. Ding nor Mrs. Li have ever seen such a scene?" said the eldest lady of the Niu family slowly.
That's why his father taught her that she should get along well with the county lord, follow the county lord to see the world, and marry in the future?
The eldest lady of the Niu family felt that she was like chewing wax.
Gao Miaorong didn't want to admit that Jiang Xian's banquet was unique, and denied that the words of the eldest lady of the Niu family would involve countless other topics, she hesitated for a while, and had to say: "I guess they haven't seen it either!"
The eldest lady of the Niu family is a little unable to eat.
Jiang Xian has never participated in these things, and after giving instructions that should be ordered, he hid in the house and talked to Mrs. Lu, who had a good relationship with her: "Your master made a special trip to the post station to meet me last time, and then there were many things, and I didn't have a chance to talk to you alone." Is there something your lord looking for me?"
It's not that she's arrogant, it's that she's seen too many things like this, twisting and turning, spitting and spitting for a long time before she euphemistically says what she wants to do, sometimes the daylilies are cold, and simple things become complicated again.
Mrs. Lu waved her hand disapprovingly, and said, "What can he do—as soon as he is old, he will at most climb up to the next level, he just doesn't dare to offend Lord Wu, and he just follows Lord Wu to coax." You don't have to pay attention to him. If our family really has something to ask you for, I will come to you and speak to you. ”
This is one of the reasons why Jiang Xian likes Mrs. Lu.
The two don't have to use so many brains to get along.
"That's good!" Jiang Xian said with a smile, "I'm too busy these days, I'm afraid I'll forget something." You also know that the one in our family was fighting in Ganzhou a few days ago!"
"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Lu smiled understandingly.
Sun Shiding's wife asked to see him.
Jiang Xian thought of what Li Qian said to her before leaving, she thought about it and asked the little maid to invite her in.
Mrs. Lu saw the opportunity and went to the garden.
Mrs. Sun was in her forties, she was a shrewd person at first glance, she spoke respectfully and cautiously, and she was very eye-catching, and she said a few words to Jiang Xian and then left.
Jiang Xian couldn't help but sigh.
I don't think it's easy to find someone who is capable and loyal.
After everything was done in Taiyuan, Jiang Xian specially went to visit He Tongniang.
He Tongniang had a big belly and was embarrassed to see Jiang Xian.
Jiang Xian thought that Wei was her sister-in-law, and Wei would definitely take care of her, and she was not worried about her situation in the Jin family, so she had a meal at the Jin family, and began to prepare for returning to Xi'an, preparing to spend the Dragon Boat Festival with Li Qian.
Sun Jiading sent his wife over to send Jiang Xian a ceremonial journey.
Jiang Xian took the opportunity to leave Mrs. Sun to speak: "Master Sun and my father-in-law are old friends, and they are elders who grew up watching Zongquan, and he knows the most about the Li family. Zongquan is heartbroken and father-in-law, and in Xi'an, he reports good news but not bad news. The father-in-law also values the power of the clan the most, and writing letters has always been a 'good' in the past. Zongquan saw it, and sometimes he was a little anxious. He is not in Taiyuan, and the affairs of the Li family must not be asked to help Master Sun watch the point, if there is any trouble, it is better to report to us and deliver a word, so that we don't know what my father-in-law has here. ”
Mrs. Sun immediately thought of the dispute between Li Lin and Li Ju during this time.
Originally, Li Changqing had asked Li Lin to take care of the military affairs, and the uncle of the He family was only in charge of some idle affairs without power, who knew that a few days ago, Li Lin's affairs were exposed, saying that Li Lin's uncle Gao Miaohua exchanged old rice for new grain in the General Military Mansion, and sold it to some farmers as seeds for spring ploughing, but Li Lin found out, and privately took out the silver to buy those old rice, and found a way to buy a batch of new rice from the Yuan family and put it in the warehouse.
After Li Changqing found out, he taught Li Lin a lesson, and handed over the matter of the grain depot to Uncle He again.
Everyone was discussing in private, saying that this incident might have been poked out by Li Ju. Li Lin had no choice but to knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, admitting the incident.
But if Li Lin has such a mind, and finds that his uncle is not authentic, and he takes the silver out to make up for the leakage, not to mention their master, even she, a woman, thinks it is impossible.
Nine times out of ten, this matter was done by Li Ju.
Dear friends, today is the eighth day of the new year, and the addition during the Spring Festival!
ps: I struggled all afternoon to be able to get on the backstage, and I didn't have time to write the update in the evening, so I had to postpone it until about ten o'clock in the evening~~~~~(>_<)~~~~
