Zhen Wanyi heard Zhen Mingjie say that after Muzi returned to Beijing, he lived in the abduction tree alley on the adjacent street, and the reason was that the Rongwang Mansion had not been repaired. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Did you tell my mother?"

Mama Rong said: "The slave maid thinks about telling the fourth wife when she leaves, this is a post written by the prince himself." As he spoke, he reached into his pocket and took out the post, the red gold-inlaid post, and the big three words of Rongwangfu jumped on it, vigorous and powerful. Opened, it is also written by Mu Zigui, Zhen Jiuniang, our house is scheduled to move to Rongwangfu on the eighth day of November, please come. Qi Rong respectfully. Qi Rong, Prince Rong, it turns out that this is Mu Zigui's new name.

Mama Rong then handed over a few red posts, "These are blank, Miss Nine, look at the posts." There is no one in charge in the palace now, and the prince of the outer courtyard can preside over it, so when the time comes, please ask Miss Nine to invite a few close sisters to play a good role in the palace. ”

Zhen Wanyi bit her lip, looked at the fiery eyes around her, thanked her and took it, and then asked her to arrange for Mama Rong to go down to eat.

As soon as Mama Rong left, Zhen Huiyi said: "Ninth sister, this Rongwang Mansion is the size of the prince, and I don't know what it looks like inside?"

The lady of the Ma family immediately answered: "Sister-in-law is true, Prince, I only said the Jin Palace, Ning Wangfu and Yu Prince Mansion, I didn't expect this grandmother to be a person from the Prince's Mansion, Jiu Niang still knows such a person, but it is really blessed." Said with envy on his face.

Zhen Peiyi snorted, looked at Zhen Wanyi and said coldly: "Although the mansion of this prince's mansion is regulated, but now that the treasury is empty, the Jin Palace, the Ning Palace, and the Ning Palace, have only been repaired and are preparing for the wedding. ”

Zhen Wanyi smiled faintly, "I'm a visitor, if you have a view, you can see more, and if you don't have a view, you will see less." After all, it's not as good as the eldest sister, the family of the nobles in the capital has been going back and forth for a long time, and I haven't seen the prince's mansion when I'm so old. ”

Zhen Peiyi's eyes narrowed, and she sneered, "Isn't there a chance for the ninth sister in the future?" I can't say that next year, I will carry a small sedan chair and enter the Rong Mansion through the side door, and I will spend my life in the Rong Wang's Mansion for the rest of my life." ”

The lady of the Ma family kept purring her eyes, staring at Zhen Wanyi up and down. It seems that the capital is not right about Mu Zigui, now it should be changed to Qi Rong, and he still doesn't know anything about Qi Rong's marriage, and several close relatives of the Zhen Mansion know it, but they all have a wait-and-see attitude, and even like Zhen Peiyi, they all think that her biggest possibility is to become the concubine of Prince Rong, after all, the emperor should not let a prince marry a princess with no background to shame the royal family.

The smile on Zhen Wanyi's face faded, "The eldest sister also said that it is uncertain, even if it is an uncertain thing, what is the use of this extra effort." ”

Grandma Yu interrupted Zhen Peiyi's words that opened her mouth more and more, "Jiu Niang, I heard that the previous owner of this house belonged to Lord Wupin, and the scale seems to be not small." ”

finally forked the conversation, but the atmosphere of the meal was not lively.

After a day of shopping, eating, drinking, and chatting, Zhen Wanyi accompanied the fourth wife to pack up the congratulatory gifts on the low couch in the main courtyard, and then asked Huixiang to collect them in the treasury.

"This is the most important thing in this relationship, and when you register, you must not forget who sent what when you are doing something, which is very important. In the past, when we just moved back to Qinghe City, your eldest aunt had just taken over the middle feed in the house, and your grandfather was seriously ill, and the old lady didn't have the heart to care. ”

Zhen Wanyi was puzzled: "Why is this?"

"The official kiln is not an ordinary object in the capital, let alone Qinghe City. And we haven't walked in our hometown for a long time, and most of the exchanges between neighbors and neighbors are to send some daily necessities, and your aunt's hand is not scaring people. Look at these, floral muslins, ramie, flannel, white porcelain tea sets and bowls are all sent by the neighbors, and they are all things with large daily expenses. The price of such things is lower, and the pressure of human relations is less, and we can also return the gift if the neighbors have something in the future. ”

Zhen Wanyi nodded, she didn't have any friends around her before, she only followed her parents to the banquet, and she didn't have a share of gifts, in Zhen's Mansion, even the fourth wife didn't have to worry about that, let alone her. Now look at it is really learned everywhere, "Mother means that gift-giving also depends on the status of the portal, and the relationship is close." ”

The fourth wife nodded, "Probably yes, in addition, it depends on what the host's family does, like this housewarming, most of the things that are suitable for the family, such as these cloths sent by the neighborhood can be cut for the next person, and most of the clothes sent by your grandfather's family and the third aunt are ornaments." There are also direct silver money, which is the best way to pay back, and it will be returned according to the gift in the future. The person who gave the thing must remember it clearly, if the thing is returned to the original owner in the future, the joke will be big. ”

Zhen Wanyi nodded, it sounds like the easiest way to send money, if it is a thing, you have to carefully consider the comparative value.

"Mother, Mama Rong came today and sent her daughter several blank invitations, you see?"

The fourth wife smiled and patted Zhen Wanyi's hand, "This is the prince supporting your face." The prince has not yet married, and there is not even a master who takes care of housekeeping around him, and most of the guests at the banquet are male guests, and few women who know the situation in his house are afraid that there are few female relatives who come over. The prince's move is to let you get acquainted with the situation of the palace, second, to give us a reassurance, and third, to let other people in the Zhen Mansion understand that the ladies invited to the palace are all up to you. ”

Zhen Wanyi sighed, her heart was not very happy, she really didn't understand why her life had become like this. "Mother, my daughter really wants to go back to Qinghe City. ”

The fourth lady frowned slightly, and took a breath, "Wan'er, things are man-made, you can't be afraid of the slightest difficulty." Even if the family thing set for you is not the prince, it will not be smooth sailing for any family, strange in-laws, aunts and uncles, and even strange husbands, these need to be slowly adapted by yourself, if you don't adjust your mentality well, and only think about living a boudoir life, then whether you are in the palace or marrying a commoner, life will not be good. Wan'er, now you have this mentality. ”

Zhen Wanyi looked at her mother's serious expression, her nose was slightly sour, she was not only afraid that she would not be able to adapt to the unfamiliar life, but also afraid of other people's strange eyes, like Zhen Peiyi's indifferent ridicule, like Zhen Huiyi and the Ma family's sour flattery, this is just her own family, if everyone outside knows that Prince Rong is going to marry a woman with an ordinary status like her, then what kind of gossip will come?

These things are just for the unequal treatment brought about by the unequal status of the person she is going to marry, which is by no means what she wants, nor is it what she can imagine. The simple life she wants with all her heart, she will never compete with others all day long, accept the wanton scrutiny of others, and endure the slander behind the backs of others. The thought of living in such a dire situation in the future makes me shudder. (To be continued.) )
