Chapter 124: Shame and shame
Princess Yongjia's mansion, there are already many people gathered in front of the door, the ladies of the powerful families with the girls, and the young masters of each family. The butlers and subordinates of the pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info invite guests in an orderly manner.
In order to make up for the princess, the original residents at the front door of the princess's mansion were moved away, and a large area was circled, so the princess was asked to make a horse farm.
In this way, there is a place for so many carriages to be parked.
After getting out of the carriage, Dong took three girls and four maids each and headed towards the gate.
Qin Shuying is bringing wisteria today.
This section of the road is not close, and it took a long time to walk from the bolted horse farm to the gate, which shows how spacious this place is.
Along the way, you can naturally meet many women or men, but there are almost no people that Dong knows. When others see their eyes, they will inevitably look at and discuss.
The Dong family used to follow behind the Xu family, she was silent, and she had never been in the limelight, and there were not many people who knew her. Qin Kaile was only promoted to a fifth-grade official at the beginning of the year, and she was still in a foreign position, and she became more and more forgotten.
There were one or two sharp-eyed people who recognized Qin Shuying, and everyone knew that the daughter-in-law with three girls born on this face turned out to be the maiden family of Concubine Lian, a person from the Qin Mansion.
Qin Shuying hasn't been out of the gate for three years, and the only time she went to the Duke of Chu Mansion was famous, so no one recognized her.
As for Qin Lulu, there are still a few handkerchiefs to hand, but the female relatives who came today are all from families above the third-grade official, Qin Lulu is only the daughter of a concubine, and most of the people she knows are girls from low-ranking families, and most of those girls are not qualified to participate in today's hairpin banquet.
As for Qin Yue, it is said that she also has a few handkerchiefs, but she has not seen anyone yet.
Fortunately, no matter who it is, except for a few super first-class and first-class women, in front of Princess Yongjia's mansion, the difference in status is not too big. Dong took the three girls generously, handed over the posts and gifts with a smile, and entered the Yongjia Princess Mansion.
Princess Yongjia's mansion was huge, and as soon as she entered, Qin Yue felt that her eyes were not enough.
Fortunately, she has a steady temperament, abides by the female discipline, and follows the same trend, looking straight ahead, holding back the curiosity and excitement in her heart.
The same is true for Qin Lulu and Qin Shuying.
There was nothing to do all the way, and I was led to the flower hall.
This flower hall is built on the edge of the lake, covering a huge area, there are more than 20 acres.
Two-thirds of the flower hall is on the shore and one-third is in the water, which is extremely luxurious, all kinds of furnishings are very precious, and flowers and plants are even more prosperous and rare.
The lake is also very wide and curved, with no end in sight.
In the lake, lotus flowers and some aquatic plants and reeds are planted, and now it is the season of luxuriation, although the lotus flowers have not yet bloomed, but the scenery of this lake is also very pleasant.
Standing near the water, I only feel relaxed and happy, and I feel comfortable.
This was just what Qin Shuying expected, because according to their identities, their positions were discharged to the half of the shore, and only the noble ladies were discharged to the section of the flower hall that stretched out into the water.
It's still late April, so if it's summer, it's a great place to escape the heat. I heard that at that time, the whole flower hall would be wrapped with a transparent curtain, and mosquitoes could not enter, but people could enjoy the scenery without any obstruction, enjoy the lotus, drink tea, and taste wine, which was the most comfortable.
Now, Princess Yongjia has not yet come, and the ladies are talking in twos and threes, pulling the relationship.
Wherever the girls met, they all gossiped in groups.
The position of the female guest has been set up a long time ago, and the right seat is taken. The ladies of the Qin Mansion didn't know anyone, and there was no one to chat, so they sat in the arranged position.
The person sitting next to them is the family of Luo Shilang, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.
The one who took people out was a middle-aged woman, much older than the Dong family, she reported herself to her home, she was Lin Shilang's wife, and the one sitting next to her was her concubine, and the other was her concubine, both thirteen or fourteen years old, beautiful and dignified.
Dong smiled and politely reported to his home.
As soon as she heard that it was from the Qin Mansion, Mrs. Lin's originally reserved face suddenly moved, and her expression was indescribably weird.
Dong's face burned for a while.
The resentment against the Xu family has also deepened a little.
You don't have to think about why people are like this.
It's nothing more than the uproar about the Lu Mansion, and Qin Fangfang was thrown back, and everyone remembered the matter of the Chu State Mansion before.
The woman in the deep house is the most associative, and she can guess the essence of the problem the most, and everyone can't help but explore the image of Xu's previous kindness and kindness to her concubines and nieces.
Only then did I find out that Xu was such a person!
What is good to the concubine, but it is to frame the concubine, kill the concubine, and marry his own daughter.
What is good to his niece, but he secretly appropriated his niece's things and gave them to the old lady of the in-laws, in order to let the other party treat his own daughter well.
The haunted matter of Lu Mansion a few days ago has been in a uproar in Chongde Fang, and no one knows about it, and no one knows about it.
Dong originally thought that after returning to Beijing, he would have to break back the bad impression of outsiders on the girls in Qinfu no matter what, so he was also mentally prepared.
Unexpectedly, when I really faced this situation, my skin was still not thick enough, and it burned hotly.
Especially when the other party is still the family member of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he is simply bare-chested and let people comment, there is really nowhere to hide, and there is nowhere to hide, and he is ashamed and ashamed.
Fortunately, this Mrs. Lin is a kind person, neither said anything mean, nor asked anything, only leisurely pulled a few words about the weather and the grandeur of the princess's mansion.
Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
The two said a few words, and there was nothing to say.
Suddenly quieted down, and they were a little uncomfortable.
The concubine who was introduced by Mrs. Lin as Miss Lin San spoke, her tone was soft, and she said to Qin Shuying: "It turns out that you are Miss Qin Qi, I have heard of you." I'm in March of Ding Mao's year, I don't know what month you are?"
Since you have heard about it, you still have such a tone to yourself, don't you dislike yourself and ignore women's morality? As Lu Changju said, the nobles in the capital attach great importance to the rules, and even if some people sympathize with Qin Shuying's actions, they will not be recognized by many noble ladies.
Since they were courteous, Qin Shuying returned a polite smile and said, "Then I have to call you sister, I'm from May." ”
Miss Lin San pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I have been obsessed with you for two months, and when I was at home, my sisters all called me Sister Zilan, and you can also call me Sister Lin." I'll call you Sister Shuying, okay?"
Qin Shuying replied generously: "Sister Zilan is too polite. ”
Lin Zilan said: "Sister Shuying, our old house is in Yunzhou, my mother and I also entered Beijing last month, I don't know anyone, since we are destined to sit together, the princess has not yet come, why don't we walk here, what do you think? I am the first time to come to the princess's mansion, I feel that everywhere is exquisite." ”
No wonder they sit here too, with no acquaintances to talk to.
