Chapter 498: Confrontation
There were a few tables of people sitting scattered in the hall, and Lan Xin and his party came in, but they didn't attract much attention.
She was greeted by a woman in her mid-fifties of medium stature and thin build. Looking at her dress, she should be the housekeeper mother in the yard. smiled before speaking, and said to Xiangping: "Ouch, Xiangping girl, this must be the eldest lady of the Yu family, right?!"
Xiangping looked sideways at Lan Xin standing there steadily, nodded with a smile and said in return: "Back to Xin's mother's words, this is our eldest lady." Then he said to Lan Xin, "Girl, this is Mrs. Yuwen's mother, Mother Xin." ”
I know a little about this Xin's mother Lan Xin, it is said that she is the dowry girl brought to Ouyang Mansion by Mrs. Yuwen's biological mother from her mother's house. Lady Yuwen has been by her side since she was born. It is very important to Mrs. Yuwen.
After Xiangping's words fell, Xin's mother folded her hands in front of her abdomen, staring at Lan Xin with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
A cold light flashed in Lan Xinmu's slightly narrowed eyes behind him, hmph, no matter how head and face she has, she is just a slave, do you want this girl to salute first?!
Lan Xin stood there, not moving. Bai Aya naturally followed the steps of her girl, standing there steadily, but the corner of her eye was scanning the entire hall, secretly vigilant in her heart.
Xiangping looked at Lan Xin, whose back was straight, suspiciously, and then turned to look at Mother Xin, who was smiling at the corner of her mouth and her face was peaceful. Later, he moved his gaze from Xin's mother to Lan Xin's body, and then his gaze returned to Xin's mother. The lips squirmed, but they were under the pressure of Lan Xin. I could only purse my lips and hang my head, standing quietly on the side.
The two sides confronted each other like this, and neither of them would back down. Lan Xin knows that now is not the time to take a step back and open the sky, whoever retreats first will lose the opportunity.
The smile on Xin's mother's face remained unchanged, but her palms were already sweaty. She originally wanted to give this eldest lady of the Yu family who came from afar a dismount, but she didn't expect that this girl would be so difficult, and she was a little anxious.
Since following Mrs. Xian to Ouyang Mansion, he has not been angry. Later, she followed the young lady to Yuwen Mansion, and the young lady was originally smart, but she was also a person who refused to suffer. While everyone was holding the young lady, they naturally wanted to flatter her.
I didn't expect to be bent over by a little girl whose hair hadn't grown yet. Mother Xin, who has always been on the top, is naturally unwilling, and she frequently glances at Xiangping next to Lan Xin, hoping that she can come out to play a round. But this Xiangping was like a piece of wood, her eyes were about to blink and cramp, and she still didn't react stupidly.
"Yo, where did this guest come from, that Mother Xin, who was next to the big sister of labor, came down to greet her in person?" a crisp and tactful voice broke the deadlock.
Lan Xin's eyes rolled, and a strange smile rose into the corner of his mouth. Listening to the tone of the person's speech, she should be the wife of the Ouyang family. I just don't know which room it is.
Lan thought about it, and the person had come to the front. A fragrant breeze came to his nose, and Lan Xin keenly smelled it, it was the fragrance of jasmine, and it was the kind of white jasmine with double petals.
"Hehe, it seems that I really happened today. I didn't expect to run into my sister. Mrs. Ouyang shook the fan and said with a smile, "I haven't seen my big sister for a long time!"
Mother Xin's eyelids couldn't stop jumping since she heard Mrs. Ouyang's voice. I thought to myself: Why did she come? Or at this time? His eyes moved from Lan Xin, and he knew in his heart that he was probably coming for the eldest lady of the Yu family.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Xin's mother really wanted to touch her forehead with one hand. Madame and this eldest lady of the Yu family didn't say anything, and they were stirred up by this one.
Lan Xin looked at the chagrin in Xin's mother's eyes, and felt a burst of happiness in her heart. Gloating and thinking: I'm afraid Xin's mother's intestines are going to regret it, right? It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.
Hearing Mrs. Ouyang's question, Mother Xin retracted her heart, and said with stiff lips: "Fifth Madam, this ·······"
"Ouch, the style of your dress is so chic!" As soon as Mother Xin spoke, she was interrupted by Mrs. Ouyang, intentionally or unintentionally, staring at Lan Xin's clothes, and praised her, "The workmanship of this dress is fine, and the embroidery is also chic." If I'm not mistaken, this young lady should be the eldest lady of the Jade family from the Great Sect Dynasty, right?"
Lan Xin curtsied and said with a smile: "The little woman Yu Lanxin has seen Madame. Lan Xin's voice was calm, neither humble nor arrogant, not tepid.
Mrs. Ouyang didn't show it on her face, but she turned a few times in her heart, it seems that this girl doesn't hold the master that anyone can handle. The corner of his eye swept to Xin's mother's blue and red face, and she snorted coldly in her heart: Hmph, old pious woman!
smiled and saluted back: "Miss Yu, don't be polite, my husband's surname is Ouyang, and my husband is five." ”
Fifth Mrs. Ouyang was so refreshing, Lan Xin didn't twist, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Fifth Lady, Lan Xin was rude." ”
"Fifth Madam, Miss Yu. Mother Xin, who had always been ignored by the two, spoke, looking at the two of them talking and laughing, and her mouth was as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly. However, thinking of his wife, he could only stubbornly say, "Our wife has been waiting in the private room above for a long time, and I asked the two of us to go upstairs with the old slave." ”
Lan Xin smiled silently and looked at Mother Xin quietly. Mrs. Ouyang Wu rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Sister's teahouse has a quiet environment, and the dim sum is delicious. Miss Yu might as well go up and have a cup of tea, and also taste the difference between our Dayu dim sum and that of the Dazong Dynasty. ”
"Miss Yu, please. With a proper smile on her face, Mother Xin made a gesture of please to Lan Xin. Looking at Lan Xin's back, Mother Xin secretly gritted her teeth: If she doesn't say anything like this, doesn't she just ask me to bow my head first?
Alas, a nameless fire surged out of Xin's mother's heart. I can't vent it, as long as I let it run rampant through my body.
Lan Xin and the fifth lady walked up the stairs to the private room upstairs. Mrs. Yuwen's private room is just above the "Jade Record". Lan Xin's eyes turned, staring meaninglessly at the beaded curtain at the door of the private room.
"Madam, Miss Yu and Fifth Lady are here. Xin's mother opened the curtain and whispered.
Mrs. Yuwen stood up from the circle chair with a "pout", and looked at the slender figure behind Mother Xin fixedly, not even seeing the fifth lady who came in at the same time.
