Chapter 368: Greed
After Zhen Wanyi and everyone exchanged a few words, the little maid came in to report, "Princess, Princess Ning has arrived." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The fourth lady looked left and right, stood up and said softly: "Wan'er, you go to entertain Princess Ning, let's go to the garden for a walk, just now I saw you in the garden dressed in red and colorful, it is very beautiful." The wives and grandmothers of the Yu family also stood up, "Yes, we haven't seen the garden of the palace yet, so we just took advantage of it today to take a look." ”
Several people from the Zhen family also got up, but they just stood aside and didn't speak.
Another little maid came in to report, "Princess, Princess Xian, Princess Yu have arrived at the door." ”
Zhen Wanyi didn't care about anything else, and said to the maid waiting on the side: "Yang Yi, you accompany your wife and grandmother to walk around the garden, and when you are tired, you will take it to the water pavilion to rest." ”
The yellow-clothed maid standing on the side stepped forward and led the fourth wife to go out, the third wife of the Zhen family and her daughter glanced at each other, a look of indifference flashed on their faces, and they also went out, Zhen Peiyi walked out without any reason.
Zhen Wanyi pulled Zhen Wenyi and Zhen Ruyi, who were walking at the end, and said in a low voice: "Don't go to the garden later, just wait in the water pavilion and help me greet the guests." ”
Zhen Wenyi's eyes lit up, pursed her lips and smiled: "Got it." He took two steps back and said in a low voice, "Later, if my mother-in-law tells you something, don't do it." After speaking, he pulled Zhen Ruyi and left with the Zhen family.
Only then did Zhen Wanyi notice that Mrs. Jia was still behind, nodded and smiled: "Mrs. Jia, I want to go to the front to greet guests, you are free." ”
Mrs. Jia smiled and followed two steps, "I'll go with you." ”
Zhen Wanyi was slightly stunned, remembering Zhen Wenyi's words just now, and said euphemistically: "How can this be done? You are my distinguished guest and elder today, how can you accompany me to welcome guests? I also told the eighth sister just now, let her help me entertain guests at the water pavilion, how dare you bother here." ”
Mrs. Jia smiled abruptly: "But I was confused, I wanted to follow you to greet the princesses." ”
The smile on Zhen Wanyi's face faded, what she didn't like the most was Mrs. Jia's temperament, she used all her scheming to calculate her own people, and she had to catch a handful of any benefits, regardless of whether it was appropriate or not. Prince Ning is now hot, the Ministry of Rites is rushing to make the prince's court clothes, and the inner chamberlain is repairing the East Palace, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the rhythm of establishing the prince.
Nowadays, Princess Ning is not lacking in people who flatter and pat horses, and in order to avoid leisure, Princess Ning has rarely participated in banquets in the past two months. How could Zhen Wanyi do that uninteresting thing and bring Mrs. Jia over, if she really took Mrs. Jia over like this, not only did she make a joke, but she was afraid that this person would also be offended by her.
Everyone has their own circle of intersection, and Mrs. Jia, a wife from a fifth-grade official, is naturally not qualified to let Princess Ning and them befriend, which is why the fourth wife and the wife of the Yu family will take the initiative to avoid it. If they insist on staying here to meet Princess Ning, all they will be able to do is Zhen Wanyi.
In fact, people have already arrived at King Rong's Mansion, and Princess Ning is also here, and they can meet when they can't meet at this time, and they can meet when the banquet is held, as for whether they can leave an impression in front of Princess Ning, it depends on their respective abilities.
Zhen Wanyi's face changed to a polite smile, and her expression showed indifference that was thousands of miles away, "Mrs. Jia's intentions, this princess will convey them for you." ”
Mrs. Jia's face froze, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, "I just thought that the friendship between our two families is no better than that of other families, so I went to the door with a shy face to ask for a glass of wine, but now it seems to be abrupt." ”
Zhen Wanyi blocked her throat in one breath, and she was very tired of Mrs. Jia's behavior, when Qi Rong was in prison, she asked Mr. Jia to help, and she also accepted Mr. Jia's love, but this Mrs. Jia was too blind, too much to bully people.
Earlier, Concubine Shu pushed her into the water, and her mother, Mrs. Liu, was rejected by Mrs. Fourth when she came to the door several times, but this Mrs. Jia was good, and as soon as Mrs. Liu said it, she hurriedly came to the door to intercede, and for the sake of Old Man Jia's face, she suppressed the unhappiness in her heart.
Later, it was Sun Xiaoxiao's matter, and she mixed it in the middle to adjust, and talked about the old man Jia, she gritted her teeth and endured it. I didn't expect to mention this today, is it true that she is made of mud and has no temper? It is that the mud bodhisattva still has three points of earthiness, not to mention that she was spoiled by her father and mother when she was at home, and after she got married, Qi Rong protected her thoroughly, and never wronged herself so much.
The relationship between the two of them is not ordinary, who in this hall just now has no better relationship with Zhen Wanyi than her Jia family? Just that she wants to stay, it is nothing more than to use her face to show her face in front of Princess Ning, so that she can have an excuse to climb in the future, but she doesn't want to think that Princess Ning is such a good person?
"Mrs. Jia also said, the relationship between our two families is not ordinary, you come to be a guest at the house, I will treat you as a guest, how can I bother you to do the thing of welcoming guests? ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out, leaving Mrs. Jia standing alone in the hall, her face changed a few times, and finally gritted her teeth and went to Qingyi Water Pavilion under the soft urging of cherries.
Zhen Wanyi sat on the soft sedan chair, and when she arrived at the second gate, she just greeted Princess Ning, Princess Xian and Princess Yu, mother and daughter, and greeted each other Zhen Wanyi gave a meeting gift to the lord of Prince Yu's mansion, and everyone walked all the way to Jinxiang Courtyard in a soft sedan chair.
Princess Ning turned her head to look around with great interest, and said with a smile: "Thirteen aunts, this garden is exquisitely decorated, if it weren't for this cold wind, I would only think it would be spring." ”
Zhen Wanyi motioned to the mother-in-law who carried the soft sedan chair to walk a few steps quickly, parallel to Princess Ning, "This looks good, but it costs too much money, if it weren't for this banquet, I would really be reluctant." ”
Princess Ning covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyebrows and eyes were full of amorousness, it seems that the sentence that people are in good spirits when they are happy is really right. "Auntie is right, I love to talk to her. ”
Since Zhen Wanyi was forced to save Princess Ning once on Chinese New Year's Eve, Princess Ning's attitude towards her has changed greatly, and she always screams her aunt when she meets, and she calls very sincerely. It's much better than when Princess Jin called her aunt and stabbed her behind her back. Zhen Wanyi also likes Princess Ning's rectal temperament, and whether she likes it or not, she puts it on her face, but listening to Qi Rong's meaning, King Ning doesn't seem to like Princess Ning very much with such a temperament.
When I arrived at Jinxiang Courtyard, I looked at the home of a water pear blossom tree, the double-sided embroidered screen of Xuemei Linghan in all directions, there was a high-priced gilt lady picture appreciation bottle standing in the corner of the wall, and a red plum bonsai in full bloom next to it, the branches were upside down to the bottle, lined with the picture of the ladies on the appreciation screen, as if the ladies were appreciating the flowers, and the artistic conception could not be said.
"This reward bottle is new to the official kiln this year, I have seen one in the queen mother's place, but it is placed in the corner of the wall, far less beautiful than the thirteen aunts placed here. The queen mother also said, just look at this tall picture is fresh, if her old man sees your decoration, I am afraid that she will also be red-eyed."
Zhen Wanyi pursed her lips and smiled, "You arrange your queen mother like this, be careful that the queen mother knows that she won't give you good fruits to eat." ”
Concubine Xian also said on the side: "Don't say it, Princess Ning's words are really reasonable, this plant is unique, it is not uncommon to bloom at this time, it is rare that this form is just right with this bottle, and it is a scene together." ”
Zhen Wanyi's words came to her mouth and swallowed, it's not that she was reluctant to give this bonsai, it's just that the few bonsai she gave to the Zhen family's father and son were on the verge of death, if she hadn't found it early, rescued it, and taught the gardeners in the house, she was afraid that she would die early, so Zhen Wanyi was reluctant to give away bonsai, after all, it took her several years to make those bonsai successfully.
However, Princess Xian's words reminded Princess Ning, her eyes rolled, and she flattered Zhen Wanyi and said: "Aunt Thirteen, you can lend me this bonsai for a while, I will let the people in the imperial garden cultivate one according to this and give it to the queen mother, so that her old man will be happy." ”
Hearing what Princess Ning said, Zhen Wanyi also made up her mind, "Why do you need such trouble, it's rare that you can take a fancy to what I have here, and this bonsai will be given to you." ”
Princess Ning circled around the bonsai, and the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, and said with a smile: "Then I won't be polite to my aunt." ”
Zhen Wanyi smiled and nodded, but she was wrong, thinking that everyone had the same Zhen family, but she forgot that there were craftsmen in the palace who specialized in serving flowers and plants, they just didn't know how to shape, but they could change pots, cultivate soil, fatten, etc., they were all used to it, and her worries at the beginning were rare and strange.
