Chapter 66: Fame
At the second gate of the Shen Mansion, the mothers-in-law drove the carriage over.
This is a gorgeous and delicate solid wooden carriage, compared with Cui Shizi's car, the wheels and body are relatively shorter. The entire body is painted burgundy, and two lifelike butterflies are inlaid with gold leaf at the front of the car. Pulling the carriage were two oily and slippery jujube horses, which were "snorting".
At first glance, this car is for the exclusive use of boudoir women.
As soon as Shen Moyun wanted to get into the car first, a snow-white soft wattle stood in front of her.
"Ahh......h I'm going to be sorry for my sister! This carriage is my sister's exclusive carriage, and it was specially sent by my grandfather on my tenth birthday! I have always enjoyed this carriage alone, and I really didn't mean to embarrass my sister, but this is well known to everyone in the Shen Mansion!"
Shen Moyun didn't speak, but Yao Huang opened his mouth first: "Second girl, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right? Our Shen Mansion girl travels, but we have to separate two carriages, which will inevitably make outsiders suspicious of the girls' discord and fall into the hands of others." After all...... A few days ago, the girl is famous, but I'm afraid many people haven't forgotten it!"
"Sister Yao Huang blames me!" mentioning the events of the previous few days, Shen Moqing was angry, and her voice became a little sharper, "It's not that my sister is deliberately embarrassing my sister, it's just that first, it's Qing'er who is used to sitting in her own carriage;
"Second girl, you ...... what kind of reason is this? Obviously, it can be properly solved with one less maid, isn't this embarrassing, what is it? Yao Huang just wanted to open his mouth to argue, but was pulled by Shen Moyun.
"It's okay! Sister Yao Huang and I can take another car!"
"Yes!"
Sure enough, walking back, there was a black painted carriage parked behind the gorgeous carriage, it was not the carriage that Shen Moyun sat in yesterday to Huang's house, although it looked simple and unpretentious, it was also quite clean. Shen Moyun took Yao Huang and got into the carriage behind him.
"Girl, why ......?"
"If she wants to put on a score, let her go! She doesn't want to be in the same car with me, so why shouldn't I be the same? Instead of having more verbal battles with her, it is better to let her ears be clean for a while!"
The second girl also took the invitation. Isn't the girl afraid of any deception?"
"It's okay, how can we see what she's going to do if we don't take the bait?
……
Yao Huang thought that Shen Moyun must ask her something alone along the way, she had been restless for the past two days, and she wanted to show her loyalty to the eldest lady. I'm afraid that the old lady won't be able to get there. This feeling of not being up or down makes her think about tea and don't want to eat. But halfway through the journey, Shen Moyun didn't ask her half a sentence.
It wasn't until he passed through the street where the "Jinshanghua" in Beicheng was located that Shen Moyun said faintly: "My shop should be taken back! It's a pity that there is no one who can use it!"
But after saying this, the eldest lady not only closed her mouth. He also closed his eyes directly and leaned against the window to pretend to sleep.
This made Yao Huang even more itchy, and he couldn't help scratching his ears and cheeks.
However, when passing through an intersection, the carriage suddenly shook from side to side, and then a violent impact accompanied by a loud neighing of horses suddenly came, but fortunately the two men were alert and held on to each other, so that they did not hit the door.
Yao Huang jumped from the stopped carriage in a rage. He angrily scolded the coachman.
The coachman looked helpless, and even a little and scoundrel: "Girls, I'm afraid I can't go! This axle is cracked, and it needs to be re-customized with a new one, how can this be good?"
"Hehe? That's a light point! I don't believe that Steward Li didn't order you to check the carriage you traveled on today yesterday? Don't think I don't know, the axles of the carriages in our house are all made of elm trees from the northeast, and they can't be stronger! Where do you say that cracks and cracks? I don't care, you have to think of a way to fix it for me!"
"Grandma, now it's not good for the axle, how can you ......?"
"Forget it!" Shen Moyun's voice was so cold that there was no trace of warmth came out, this splash was obviously taking people's money. The situation should be very clear now!
Shen Moqing must have taken the post and went to the General's Mansion for a banquet first, but she was dragged down by her design. I'm afraid that the general's mansion won't be able to arrive on time!
"Yao Huang, there is a tailor shop in front, you go buy me a yarn hat!"
What's the use of asking this coachman to repair the carriage now? It's hard to say whether it will be repaired or not. Even if it was repaired, she didn't dare to sit down in case something else happened. She didn't dare to ask the driver to rent a car, and when the time came, they got into a car of unknown origin, and if someone did it again, she would be a master and a servant. There are few people and weak people, and anything that happens is cheap Xia Hongsilk.
Thinking about it, it's still the safest on this road! It's better to buy a hat first, even if it's going to pass slowly, it's too late, it's a big deal to ask Miss Guo for guilt!
Shen Moyun and the others didn't dare to walk the alley, and kept picking the biggest main road to the general's mansion! Fortunately, the gifts that the old lady ordered to send to the Guo family were all in Shen Moqing's carriage, otherwise, these two people really didn't know what to do!
Yao Huang picked up a delicate mahogany food box from the car and followed closely behind Shen Moyun.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, a high-headed carriage stopped in front of the two of them, and when they looked up, a huge "Guo" character on the carriage was impressive. And the coachman of the carriage turned out to be Guo Jia, who Shen Moyun had been talking about just now.
The carriage of this Guo Mansion is simple and atmospheric, and the two tall horses are black horses with pure blood, coupled with the conspicuous logo of the General's Mansion on the carriage, this road has attracted everyone to stop and watch.
General Guo has made many military exploits and has a very high prestige, and her great-granddaughter has also been on the battlefield for a long time, and she is heroic, often walking on the street alone. Today, the woman in the carriage is holding a whip, and she is dressed in a black power suit that is clean and neat, which is eye-catching, so as soon as the carriage of Guo Fu stopped, many people have recognized that this is Miss Guo!
Even Shen Moyun's eyes couldn't help but reveal a lot of envy and admiration.
"I knew that you must have been thrown on the street by someone designed!" Stopping the carriage in front of Shen Moyun's master and servant, Guo Jia glanced at the onlookers, and his mischievous mentality rose sharply, and he raised his voice angrily: "It's a shame that you, as the eldest daughter of the Shen family, a dignified five-grade official, have been suppressed and bullied by a concubine sister everywhere, and you are too tolerant!
This northern city is a place where dignitaries and nobles live, and the gathered masses and people are naturally familiar with officials from all walks of life. This kind of drama in which parents are short, backyard **, and concubines compete with each other is suitable for all ages, and it is naturally the most appetizing.
For a while, many people were talking about the blind Shen family who could make Miss Guo so indignant.
"Miss Guo's words are serious! Sister Qing is young, so she is naturally reckless and ignorant! If she does anything wrong, I hope Sister Guo can forgive her! Shen Moyun is here to compensate for her sister!"
Shen Moyun was so transparent, how could she not understand that Guo Jia was going to stand out for her, and this light and clever response made her name clear.
Wupinguan, Shen Jia, Shen Moyun, Shen Moqing...... There are few people in the whole capital of this family who don't know, first they did longevity, and then they made a thing of the young ladies falling into the water, including Miss Shen, who also came up with the amazing picture of "Fu Lu Qianshou...... These are the most talked about topics in Beijing after tea and dinner recently.
At this time, it seems that the rumors of Miss Shen Er's viciousness and obedience a few days ago are not groundless, how can there be a daughter wearing a gauze hat and walking on the street on foot? What's more, the fact that Miss Shen Er is riding in a luxury carriage and spreading around is from Miss Guo's mouth, so can it be fake?
For a while, everyone involuntarily began to praise this weak Qianqian, who was wronged and exonerated the generous woman who explained to her sister, on the other hand, her second sister must have hot ears at this moment, and sneezed again and again, because the passers-by of the brigade were expressing strong contempt and disdain for her.
That Guo Jia smiled coldly, but her eyes were full of appreciation, she really didn't see the wrong person, this Shen Moyun was indeed clever, "My eldest lady, hurry up and get in the car! You are freezing in this cold wind, your clever second sister has already arrived at my house! You swallow your anger like this, your good sister and her Aunt Xia won't feel sorry for you for half a point!"
Guo Jia's words are very powerful, and this time even Xia Hongsilk was pulled in.
Now, everyone's discussion is even more enthusiastic, since this Miss Shen family went out as a guest together, a car and a trip have been incredible, but now they are still putting the cart before the horse, the aunt is sitting in a luxury carriage as a guest, but the main lady is walking through the street in the cold wind, showing her face, and she is not afraid of losing the face of the Shen family and the etiquette of my Great Zhou Dynasty!
Aunt Xia was even more scolded miserably, a concubine girl can have such courage to shout with the original concubine, in the final analysis, it must be this aunt is powerful and unbearable, for a while, the accusations against the Xia family are full of ears.
This made Shen Moyun extremely satisfied, and making Xia Hongsu's reputation bad was the first step in pulling her from the main room forever. Guo Jia is a noble person who appeared unexpectedly, and she really didn't mistake this straightforward woman.
Now, Yao Huang finally understood one thing, which made her frightened at the same time, and her understanding of this seemingly weak and harmless eldest lady who was actually secretly scheming took a step further.
She has been wondering, in fact, the day before yesterday in the main house of Ronghui Hall, Shen Moyun could have asked to come to the General's Mansion alone for a banquet, and there was no need to bring her sister with her, let alone this sister who still had a deep hatred with her.
However, the eldest lady actually agreed without any guilt? Could it be that at that time, the eldest lady was at this moment? Impossible! How could the eldest lady know that Shen Moqing would trick one person into going to the banquet first?
No, be sure to ask later!
As soon as the master and servant got into the car, Guo Jia shouted "Borrow!" and raised his horsewhip to pass through the crowd that separated the two sides, leaving only a handsome silhouette......
Guo Jia smiled happily, "You don't need to thank me! That Shen Moqing and her aunt asked for themselves! Why do they think that everyone can enter my general's mansion lightly? A group of 'dogs look down on people' deserve some lessons!"
But the real show hasn't started yet! I'll take you there!"
