Because of the unexpected arrival of Duchess Lu Guo, Qiu Ruolan became more and more respectful, and for the sake of demure, she didn't dare to go out, so she was very aware of the true situation of the mother and daughter of the Yu family, but in the only few meetings and conversations with Qiu Ruyi, she obviously felt Qiu Ruyi's indifference to herself.

Qiu Ruolan thought of this, and her heart started to rush again, the family affairs of the Lu Guogong Mansion did not have a clue, and now that she was separated from Qiu Ruyi, it was definitely not a wise choice.

At this time, when Qiu Ruolan was full of preparations to rebuild the old friendship with Qiu Ruyi, the Yu family finally waited for the invitation of the Duchess of Lu Guo, and Qiu Ruyi was also fortunate to be a guest at Qiufeng Villa because the Duchess of Lu Guo "has not seen her for many years, but she really misses it".

On this day, although Qiu Ruyi was carefully dressed, she was not dressed up in makeup, but the little girl had a refreshing appearance, wearing a golden hairpin temporarily borrowed by the Yu family on her head, adding a bit of wealth but not publicity.

Yu Shi looked left and right up and down several times, nodded with satisfaction, and gave another exhortation.

Previously, Qiu Ruyi had already been taught by Mama Su for a long time after holding her ears and teaching her all night, and when she saw that her mother was going to be verbose again, she held her forehead and shouted: "Don't worry, those etiquettes have long taken root in her daughter's brain, and she will never forget them." It's not a face saint, what's really wrong, what can she do to her daughter? It's just a rude word, anyway, there is a piece of meat on her body. ”

Yu Shi closed her mouth, she had already inquired about Qiu Yuqing's treatment that day, but she didn't dare to expect her daughter to be praised by Duchess Lu Guo, and besides, if she was there in everything, there would be no big difference in thinking about it.

The mother and daughter tidied up, and then they hurriedly got into the car and headed to Qiufeng Villa.

After entering the villa for a while, he saw that the internal steward of the Guogong Mansion was already waiting there, and the Yu family never thought that the Duchess Lu Guo would personally greet the guests because the Qiu family had been kind to Lu Guogong's family.

Qiu Ruyi is a girl's family, on this occasion, she doesn't need to say much, just stand behind her mother, so she can calm down and look for an opportunity to take a closer look at the surrounding environment.

This Qiufeng Villa really deserves its name, the scenery is scattered, the famous flowers and ancient trees can be seen everywhere, the high pavilion and the low pavilion are hidden in it, leading people to explore the heart of the winding path, and it is located in a wide area, by the mountains and rivers, the garden of the Qiu family is really small and big compared with this, it is not worth mentioning.

Of course, these will not make Qiu Ruyi arrogant, after all, this is the Fang family's industry that has been operating for many years, that is, there are skilled craftsmen in the Guogong Mansion, which can make the manor look new, and it is also the original foundation of the Fang family.

made Qiu Ruyi feel awe, but it was because of the servants who greeted them.

Slaves can put silver and gold on their heads, and wrap their bodies in silk and satin, which is not uncommon in the homes of rich and noble, it is rare that their behavior is so dignified and polite, and their laughter and language are so decent, if they are not seen outside, they are only the wives and wives of ordinary officials and rich gentry, and they can no longer imagine that they are just servants.

Qiu Ruyi finally commented in her heart: These housekeepers are not inferior to their mothers.

Thinking of his words in the morning, Qiu Ruyi silently commented on himself: The frog at the bottom of the well.

As soon as I entered the main room, I saw the Duchess Lu Guo sitting there, and Yu hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Duchess Lu Guo smiled and stretched out her hand to help her, and said, "Sister Yu, don't be so polite, you really killed your sister." ”

Yu still performed the full salute: "There is a difference between respect and inferiority, and this ceremony cannot be saved." ”

Seeing that the Yu family was humble, Duchess Lu Guo was satisfied, looked at Qiu Ruyi and said with a smile: "The little girl back then was so standard, Sister Yu was so blessed." ”

Yu said modestly: "Mrs. Cheng praises falsely, it's better outside, and the house is also very naughty." ”

The guests of honor sat down separately and talked about it. Qiu Ruyi finished the salute by himself, and sat upright beside his mother, at this time he just smiled and gathered a pair of ears, and rarely opened his mouth unless necessary.

In fact, the conversation between Duchess Lu Guo and Yu was also very boring.

recalled a few words about the rescue of Lu Guogong's family back then, at that time, Lu Guogong's mansion was in a difficult situation, and Mrs. Lu Guogong didn't want to talk about it, and Yu had to mention it.

The affairs of the court, the two of them can't say anything, the parents are short, the two don't live together, and it's not on the same level, more and more chatting, let's talk a few words about the scenery of the courtyard, but there is still a Fang family, and the praise is not praised.

The three of them sat down for a while, and Yu saw that Duchess Lu Guo only took the bowl lid and gently flicked the tea and soup, so he saw the opportunity to get up and say goodbye, and Duchess Lu Guo got up to see off the guests, and said with a smile: "Seeing that the festival is coming, everyone is busy, and they will come to visit more when they are free." ”

Yu Shi Nuonuo, until boarding the car and leaving Qiufeng Villa, Fang Song breathed a sigh of relief and sat comfortably on the bluestone gold thread pillow.

Qiu Ruyi looked at the two rulers in the car, which were just ordinary people's greeting gifts, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Sure enough, it is a powerful family, and you can't see ordinary people in your eyes." It was a life-saving grace back then, just because we were ordinary people, so we were treated with such a lukewarm and indifferent treatment. ”

Yu Shi said: "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, so it's very good." ”

The mother and daughter didn't know that with the departure of the two of them, Duchess Lu Guo was also secretly relieved.

How dare their family forget the life-saving grace of the year? But she can't forget that she was disgusted and rejected by the Yu family because of her family's temporary downfall.

Therefore, when the family of Lu Guogong became noble, Duchess Lu Guo was quite embarrassed about how to treat the Qiu family's life-saving benefactor.

Although there is a huge disparity in the status of the two families, she comes from a commoner's family, but she does not bow her head, but the rejection of her relatives has always been in her throat, so that she can't get over this hurdle in her heart, today seeing Yu's so informed and interesting to lower her posture, Duchess Lu Guo's heart will be relaxed, and she can often come and go in the future, so as not to be said to be ungrateful.

Suddenly, Duchess Lu Guo's eyebrows and eyes were worried, and she said to her confidant Chang's mother: "What do you think of this Qiu Ruyi? For Cheng'er's family affairs, it really makes me sad." ”

Chang's mother already had a score in her heart, and when she saw the question, she replied: "The appearance is not bad, although it is much more generous and decent than Qiu Yuqing, but in the end it is still a little childish, and it is a side branch of the Qiu family, and the family is even lower, and it is more and more unworthy of our eldest son." ”

Duchess Lu Guo sighed: "It's not that I don't want to repay the favor, it's really that she Qiu doesn't have a girl who can handle it." In terms of character appearance, Qiu Yuqing and Qiu Ruyi are not inferior to the young lady of the Beijing family, but in terms of speech and demeanor, they are not half a star, let alone any vision. Such a daughter-in-law marrying home not only wronged Cheng'er, but also made the Guogong Mansion faceless. ”

Mother Chang listened, lowered her head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "There is another Miss Qiu Yujuan who hasn't seen it, maybe it's a good one, she is outside with her father, and she reads thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, as long as the horizon is broad, the others are trained by Mrs., and they will not lose to others." ”

Duchess Lu nodded and said, "What you said also has some truth, but she hasn't come back yet, and I don't know what she is." We can't wait, we have to take a closer look. You inquired, if there are any outstanding points in the Qiu family, you can invite them again. ”

Mother Chang hesitated for a moment, and then replied carefully: "In the Qiu family's lineage, there are indeed a few virtuous people. It's just that my own whereabouts are good, and my father and brother have official positions, and my wife has seen them all. ”

When Duchess Lu Guo heard this, she frowned: "These people, I feel wronged Cheng'er, is it possible to ask him to marry the daughter of Bai Ding? ”

Mother Chang lowered her head and said slowly: "Now that the lady has prepared the case with the Queen Mother, she can only choose the young lady for the eldest prince from among the daughters of the Qiu family. Forgive the old slave for saying a word of collision: The Qiu clan has fallen to such a point, even if the general is pulled out of the lame, the general is also lame, and he can't take out his family background. In this case, it is better not to look at the family background, just look at the girl herself, as long as she is excellent and pleases the eldest son, it will be regarded as a great luck in misfortune. ”

Duchess Lu Guo was a little unhappy at first, but after listening to it, she also knew that it was indeed this reason, and she was still unwilling in her heart, so she said weakly: "According to your words, which other young lady in the Qiu family is better." But then again, her brother has to be at least self-motivated, and maybe he will have a good outcome in the future. It's okay to come to fight the autumn wind at two ends in three days, and there is no shortage of that bit of silver, in case something ugly happens, with such a Yue family, Cheng'er is difficult to be a man. ”

Chang's mother thought for a while and said, "If the girl herself is good and her family is motivated, then Miss Qiu Ruolan in the Qiu side branch is counted." It is said that she was born like a fairy, and it is rare that she is dignified and generous, and she advances and retreats in a certain way. , when her grandfather's generation, wealth was not lost to the lineage, and although it is a little defeated, it is still one of the best in Shunyang City. Her mother is also the most filial piety and mind, the widow bought a house, and she is still cultivating the ancestral hall, donating 2,000 taels of private house, which is praised by everyone. Although her two brothers are not yet famous, they are willing to study. ”

"It's a side branch again. Duchess Lu Guo was very dissatisfied when she heard this, thought about it carefully, and said: "His grandfather is rich and noble, and he is not inferior to Qiu Jing's family?

Chang's mother smiled and said, "Madam has a good memory, it's his house." ”

Duchess Lu Guo sneered and snorted: "I don't dare to marry a daughter from such a family." That's it, let's get here in advance, just wait for Qiu Yujuan to come back, if she doesn't make it, she has to make another plan, it's not that the Guogong Mansion doesn't want to repay the favor, it's really no one in the Qiu family, so the Queen Mother is also easy to explain, and then Liu Ting may be able to get along, and the problem will be solved. ”

Chang's mother said yes, in fact, both her master and servant understood that when she came over this time, it was clear that her daughter-in-law was here, but in fact, she was just for the Liu family to see, where did she really marry the daughter of the Qiu family as a young lady.
