Zhen Mingjie ushered in a new hope for Zhen's mansion, the fourth wife held a banquet in Zhen's mansion, Wei An took Qi Rong's post and went to the first floor to invite a chef for Zhen's mansion, a scene in the front hall and a scene in the backyard, and it was three days in a row.

This time, not only Zhen Mingjie was the first, but Jia Zhen also lived up to expectations and won the fifth place, although it was not as good as the people of Qinghe City said, but among thousands of people, it was enough to show this person's ability, no wonder he was always a proud picture of the eldest and my second child when he was in Qinghe City.
Jiafu is also celebrated, from the second day of the yellow list was announced, many portals in the east city were lively, Zhen Mansion and Jiafu both began to feast guests on the second day, all of them were banqueting guests for three days in a row, and Zhen Wanyi naturally went to Zhenfu with a generous gift on the first day. Jia Fu only sent people to give gifts on this day, and the host did not come any of them, but it is understandable.
On the second day, Zhen Wanyi was about to pack up and go to Jiafu to send congratulations, but before she left, Yingyue came in with Wei An to report, "Princess, Huixiang sent someone to talk back, no one in Jiafu has gone to Zhenfu today." ”
Zhen Wanyi's hand on the headdress paused, and looked at the bronze missing carving in the corner of the wall, it was almost time, what does it mean that no one in Jiafu has gone to Zhen's Mansion to congratulate, and there is no principal in Zhen's mansion in Beijing, so the fourth room is equivalent to Zhen Wenyi's maiden family, and it is Jiafu's in-laws, shouldn't they go to Zhen's mansion to congratulate first?
Wei An looked at Zhen Wanyi, who was silent, and asked in a low voice, "Princess, the carriage is already waiting at the second gate." ”
Zhen Wanyi got up, "Then let's go." ”
Before the carriage drove out of Changsheng Street, Zhen Wanyi shouted in the carriage, "Stop, let's go to Zhen's mansion." The carriage turned around and went to Zhen's mansion.
The more I think about it, the more unwilling I become, why don't Jia Fu come to make face for them, Zhen Mansion is her real maiden home, her eldest brother is raised, even if it is only the eighteenth, it is also the real title of the two Jinshi, then Jia Zhen does not say that it is the fifth, even if it is the champion, don't want to step on their Zhen family to highlight herself. If they don't come to Jiafu this time, then don't blame her for not giving face in the future.
When she arrived at Zhen's mansion, the fourth wife was also a little surprised and saw Zhen Wanyi again today, "Didn't you say that you were going to Sister Wen today?"
Zhen Wanyi's eyes swept the faces that appeared in Zhen's Mansion, most of them were people who came yesterday, but a few new faces also appeared, and they smiled at the people who came over and responded with a little smile, "Jiafu is so busy, my daughter wants to come and go, so let's wait for them to be free and then go to congratulate." ”
The fourth lady glanced at Zhen Wanyi, saw through her little bit of caution, and said with a sneer: "It's so big, and it's still such a small temperament, but it's unacceptable." ”
Zhen Wanyi wrinkled her small nose, "My daughter loves to be petty, so she can't do the gains and losses of chickens and insects, and the snails and horns fight, if the mother wants to blame, you have to be yourself, who let you spoil your daughter with such a temperament." ”
The fourth lady smiled so much that her eyes became a slit, "You, obviously you are unreasonable and still want to make a reasonable appearance, but in the end it is spoiled." But he didn't say that he was spoiled.
Zhen Wanyi didn't react, but nodded in agreement, "It's not just for you to get used to it, mother." ”
The fourth wife smiled and didn't speak, her daughter's temperament for more than two months was not only not suppressed but more revealed, and more unscrupulous, this change can only show that Qi Rong is indeed good to her, and this kind of cognition makes her unhappy.
After spending another day in Zhen's Mansion, she didn't see anyone from Jia's Mansion until the end of the song, and Zhen Wanyi's expression couldn't help but take on some sadness. After returning home and letting Mama Mu see it, she asked Yingyue to know about it, and said with a smile: "The princess is so sorry for being worried about this matter, this human relationship is relative, others can afford us, we will naturally treat her as a guest, others look down on us, we don't need to go to the hot face and cold ass, princess, do you say this is the reason?"
Without waiting for Zhen Wanyi to reply, Yingyue smiled on the side: "Grandma's words are not rough, it is the same among neighbors, but not between relatives." ”
Zhen Wanyi sighed, "I'm not worried about Mrs. Najia, I'm worried about the eighth sister's embarrassment." ”
Yingyue said with a smile: "Miss Eight, the princess who looks like a person doesn't have to worry, besides, it is Mrs. Jia who is in charge of the internal affairs of Jiafu now, she herself doesn't want to deal with us, why do we have to beg her to come, the slave and maid see that every time she comes, she doesn't have a good thing, she always does something to embarrass the princess, and she doesn't know what benefits she has gained from it, so it's okay if such a person doesn't come and go." ”
Mama Mu also persuaded on the side: "This Mrs. Jia is not young, and the house is not monolithic, don't forget the irreconcilable contradiction between her and the third room, now there is Mrs. Jia suppressing it, but Mrs. Jia is put there at an age, and it is not certain that Mrs. Jia will not be in charge in the future." Now that Jia Siye has passed the Jinshi examination, Miss Eight will be extremely Tailai, her husband and wife Rong, princess, you can rest assured. ”
Zhen Wanyi smiled and nodded, "That's okay, tomorrow we will go to Zhen's Mansion for a lively day, it's been a long time since it's been so lively, why didn't I think the wives next door were so funny?"
Mama Mu looked at Zhen Wanyi's interest a little higher, so she joked: "Oh, is it next door to the wife of the in-laws? ”
Zhen Wanyi nodded, Mama Mu likes to watch dramas, so she took Mama Mu to go in the past two days, and had some contact with those wives, and talked a few times, and naturally knew that their husband's official position was mostly a small official of the seventh grade and eight grades, although there was almost no power, but they were people who did practical things at the bottom, a few years ago, they were also born in two lists, but there was no backstage to go around at the bottom, and now they see a princess from Zhen's Mansion who is similar to Bai Ding, can they not be excited, and they are eager to rush to it? Every time I see Zhen Wanyi, I must have selected a topic, just to make Zhen Wanyi happy, but I can't refuse their kindness.
"Well, there are many interesting things in these six parts, let's just say that Mrs. Naqi, who is an extremely shrewd and good teacher, is always calculated by her. Mrs. Qi had to count the expenses for two days a month, but she was answered by Lord Qi in a few words, and the extra money was naturally collected by Lord Qi, saying that it was the remuneration he planned for his wife. ”
Yingyue said curiously: "That Mrs. Qi's monthly expenses only take two days to conclude that she is really a good person, but Lord Qi is even more powerful, and he can figure it out in a few words, will Lord Qi go to calculate the family in advance?"
Zhen Wanyi said with a smile: "That's not it, it's just that this Lord Qi is on an errand in the household department, and he is the best at mental arithmetic, and the number of mental arithmetic is comparable to an iron abacus." ”
Everyone was surprised when they heard this: "Mental arithmetic, you can get the answer just by calculating in your heart, but it's really amazing." ”
"It's nothing that we haven't seen Lord Qi's skills, but there is a wife, that's really powerful, even the matchmaker who walks the streets and alleys is less than three points, even the pawn horse dealer in the south of the city She knows, and later I learned that the Lord came to be Jin Wuwei's right street envoy. ”
Zhen Wanyi talked with her for a while, and didn't wash up and go to sleep until the sound sounded. Since Qi Rong left Beijing, the people around her have been with her every night, talking and chatting, and spending quiet time.
