Chapter 297: Daoist
Poor in the downtown no one asks, such as having distant relatives in the mountains, Mu Zhiyue really realized this sentence.
Since Mu Chenqi was accepted as a disciple by the Qintian Prison and received the praise of the saint, not only Mu Chenqi became busy all of a sudden, but even she herself could receive invitations from the nobles in the capital every day, and said that she wanted to wash the dust for her who came from afar.
Looking at the beautifully drawn posts, the corners of Mu Zhiyue's mouth unconsciously raised a touch of self-deprecation, she had been in Beijing for more than half a month, and there was no one else except Han Yao to catch the wind for herself, but now that so much time has passed, the posts that catch the wind suddenly flew like snowflakes.
"It's just an invitation to the mansion of a fourth- or fifth-grade official, if the sixth sister doesn't want to go, she can find a reason to politely refuse, but this one is ......" Mu Zhiwan took out the most ordinary one from a large stack of invitations.
"It's an invitation from the Duke of Lu's mansion, inviting you to enjoy peonies, which is strange. ”
"What's wrong?" Mu Zhiyue was puzzled, she had been to the banquet of the Lu State Mansion several times in her previous life, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Mu Zhiwan closed the post and put it aside, turned to look at her and said, "Don't you know, the Lu Guogong Mansion rarely holds this kind of flower-viewing banquet, and even if it does, most of them are needed by the court, and the invitations are also some ladies and wives. And this time, all the young girls and men were invited, is this clearly a blind date banquet in disguise. ”
"What's even more strange is that there is only one young master in the Lu Guogong Mansion who has not been married, and the others have all become families, and even the only one who has not been married is said to have a goal, but it has not been booked yet. In that case, why do you have a flower-viewing feast?"
Mu Zhiyue recalled the several banquets she attended in the Lu Guogong Mansion the day before yesterday, and it was true that she was a married woman like she was at that time, and it was at that time that she won the love of the old lady of the Lu Guogong, and finally when Cao Bosen wanted to transfer back to the capital, she was cheeky and begged for her.
At that time, it was only because there were no young men and women who were not married in the Lu State Mansion, so what kind of trouble is this today.
"But this is not the strangest thing, the strangest thing is that I would invite you, a young girl who has just arrived and has no noble background. Mu Zhiwan concluded.
"What does the eldest sister mean that I can't go to this flower-viewing banquet?"
Mu Zhiwan glanced at her: "Go, why don't you go, I'm just curious." They are all men and women from the noble courtiers' families, why don't you go to such a good opportunity to open your eyes, and let the people in the capital know that my Mu family still has you, the six girls. ”
Mu Zhiyue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment and felt that this was a good opportunity to expand her contacts, and if she wanted to have her own circle of people in the capital, of course she couldn't miss such a banquet, but her status was not high enough, and she might face some resentment and difficulties.
She can cope with these little things, so she simply decided that she must go to this flower-viewing banquet.
The flower-viewing banquet of the Lu Guogong Mansion is very planned, and it seems that the capital is much deserted during this year's Dragon Boat Festival, and the talented and beautiful people seem to be waiting vigorously.
The Wu family was also invited, and the Lu Guogong Mansion was not that eyeless, so the Chen family was also invited by making an exception.
As for the Mu family's sons and daughters in the capital, of course, they will not miss it, these three are now the best among the heroes in the capital, a seventeen-year-old champion who has even won three yuan, the only apprentice of a divine doctor Qingmingzi, and a Mu Chenqi who has recently entered the Qin Tianjian as a stupid layman for ten years.
Mu Zhiyue thought about it and didn't know how to make Han Yao advance the wedding date, she was a little girl, if she said it openly, it would only be regarded as nonsense, and the real situation could not be revealed, how should this be.
Lingyan was by her side, playing and embroidering handkerchiefs when she had nothing to do.
Holding the freshly embroidered Juanpa with Lingyan and playing with it, listening to their chatter by the way.
Xiao Zhuo was beaming about the scene she saw in the big kitchen.
"They are also two maids who work together in the big kitchen, one is diligent in his hands and feet, and the other is diligent in his mouth. The cook is a vain person, and she likes the diligent person who often holds her, so she is especially good to her, and the honest man who is diligent doesn't know how to fight for it, and she does all the dirty work. But honest people also have a day that they can't bear it, this broke out yesterday, in front of the kitchen full of kitchen and the cook lady and that mouth diligently fight, if it wasn't for the steward to come, I don't know what the trouble will be. ”
"And in the end, who did the steward punish?" asked casually as she bit off the silk thread in her hand.
The steward's inquiry was not biased, and one person rewarded ten boards, and then drove the cook to the fire with the unruly words of the cook, and the mouth was diligent and directly dismissed. ”
Ling Yan kept moving in his hands, and chuckled: "So, this slave still has to recognize his identity and status, don't feel that he has face when he gets a good job in front of his master, and then it is not his right to do it." ”
Linglong looked at the handkerchief embroidered by Lingyan, and from time to time pointed out where Lingyan embroidered badly, where two stitches still need to be added.
She has often embroidered these things at home since she was a child to exchange for money, which is naturally much better than Lingyan and her halfway monks
"If they were all people who kept to themselves, they wouldn't have a show. ”
Since she learned everything quickly since she followed Mu Zhiyue two years ago, even her temperament has become more and more cheerful, and now she laughs with a few maids, and she doesn't see the cowardice of the year.
"If this is not necessarily the same fate, when I was young, there was an aunt in the village, gave birth to a boy and a girl and two children, since she was a child, the girl is a hard life, she is doing all the work at home, but if there is good food, it will be given to the boy. ”
Later, the girl grew up and looked very smart, and the number of people who came to the house to ask for marriage gradually increased. When their fathers and mothers saw their daughters like this, they began to think about finding a family that could pay more dowry, so that they could earn the money from their son's daughter-in-law. ”
This kind of thing of relying on the money from her daughter's marriage to fill her son has long been heard of by several maids, but Mu Zhiyue has heard of it for the first time, in a big family, the daughter's family is all petite, where is there such a thing, so I also pricked up my ears to listen.
"There was a young man in the next village who took a fancy to the eldest girl of the family, but because the family couldn't come up with so much money, he was rejected when he asked the matchmaker to come over. The young man's family is also a straightforward person, this time he didn't give up, and the matter was known to another person in their village, and he had already taken a fancy to the big girl, but the conditions in his family were worse than that of the young man. ”
