Chapter 163: Ouyang Mansion
Xia Shi didn't answer Gu Juan, then looked at Ling Jue and asked sharply, "Do you still have that kind of thought?"
"No, Ling Jue swears. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After a while, Xia Shi sighed faintly and said, "You get up." ”
Gu Juan and Xia Shi took a few servants and came to the palatial Ouyang Mansion, this mansion is the Yan Mansion in the Beijing Division, but it is not too much, it seems that this Lord Ouyang has been an official in southern Yunnan these days, and he has indeed worked hard in terms of money.
Yan Shifan's uncle wants to be very much with his temperament, greedy for money and lustful.
It's just that this Ouyang Ren is very cautious, and his reputation is not as unbearable as Yan Shifan's, but Gu Juan knows that this person is probably even more difficult to deal with than Yan Shifan's family.
If Yan Shifan didn't have his own father, he wouldn't be free for long, but it would be different if he was Ouyang Ren, his foundation was deeper than that of the Yan family's father and son, and Yan Song's marriage to the Ouyang family was considered a high climb.
Gu Juan got out of the car first, helped Xia Shi get off the carriage, and found that Ouyang Ren and a little boy were waiting outside the door.
This boy is very cute.
It is the youngest son born to Ouyang Ren's favorite concubine, and because of his young age, he is the most loved by Ouyang Ren. The young son that Ouyang Ren said before is probably this one.
And Xia Shi got up this time, he wanted to be this teacher.
After Xiao Tong saw Xia Shi coming down, he hurriedly stepped forward to perform the teacher salute, looking at a very cute child.
Xia Shi smiled and said, "No need to be polite. ”
Ouyang Ren exchanged pleasantries with Xia Shi again, and then ordered a group of people to welcome Xia Shi and the others in.
Although it was not the first time for Gu Juan to come to Ouyang Mansion, he had never entered the inner house, which was said to have brought in the water of Dianchi Lake, and it was the coolest place in southern Yunnan in summer.
A person who looked like a housekeeper led Gu Juan and his party to a residence, which was built entirely on the water, which was very exquisite and luxurious.
Gu Juan was also a person who had been in and out of the palace, but found that this place was even more exquisite than Emperor Jiajing's Yuxi Palace.
If Jiajing knows, he won't have to copy this person's home.
The steward took Gu Juan and Xia Shi to the inner room, and said to the seven or eight maids: "In the future, you will serve these two distinguished guests, but you must not be lazy." ”
Those seven or eight maids are all very good-looking, and if the hostess next to them comes to this place, they must be worried that these little girls will seduce their husbands.
But at this time, Xia Shi couldn't see it, and Gu Juan's husband had someone else, Gu Juan had to sigh that this Ouyang Mansion was really rich.
Gu Juan instructed Hanyu to distribute these maids.
He helped Xia Shi to the residence on the second floor.
The windows on the second floor are surrounded by scenery, and Gu Juan said: "Don't say it, this Lord Ouyang will really enjoy it, just a house for hospitality is so exquisite, and this water pavilion is full of scenery on all sides."
Xia Shi heard that Gu Juan was in a good mood at this time, so he said, "Madame likes it." ”
There is an ear room in this bedroom, which was originally used to live for maids, but now it happens to be Gu Wan's residence, and these girls will not think that Xia Shi and his wife sleep in separate rooms.
At noon, the second lady of the Ouyang Mansion sent someone to invite Xia Shi and Gu Juan to the main hall for dinner.
After Gu Juan and Xia Shi changed their clothes, they followed the people to the main hall.
After entering, I found that this Ouyang Mansion was really crowded, there were dozens of Miss Gongzi alone, and there were a few older ones, and there was already the next generation.
It's much more lively than the Jingshi Yan family.
These two ladies are not as glamorous and moving as Gu Juan thought, it is really strange to look at a lady who is just a little bit beautiful, and give birth to a beautiful daughter like Ouyang Mingyue.
It's just that these two ladies can govern such a big family, and they must not be a simple woman.
After Gu Juan saw the second lady, he stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen the second lady." ”
The second lady hurriedly helped Gu Juan up, and said: "Mrs. Xia doesn't need to be polite, you are a distinguished guest in our house, the lord has ordered a good student to entertain, and I will definitely entertain a good student." ”
At this time, Ouyang Mingyue ran over, took Gu Xuan's hand very affectionately, and said, "Sister Yang, sit down, the Sichuan cuisine in the house is very authentic, you can taste it." ”
Ouyang Mingyue was so enthusiastic, Gu Juan naturally couldn't refuse, so she hurriedly sat down.
It's just that although Gu Juan is from Jiangnan, he still likes to eat spicy things, so he really likes these spicy dishes.
An extremely beautiful woman at the banquet saw Gu Juan eating a spicy dish, so she said: "This dish is a special dish of the Miao family in southern Yunnan, I didn't expect Mrs. Xia to like it so much." ”
Gu Juan glanced up at the woman and said with a smile: "It makes Mrs. laugh, I like spicy food." ”
"Madame is really a woman from Sichuan, when I was still in the boudoir, I also liked spicy food very much, but after I got pregnant again, this appetite was lost for some reason. ”
The glamorous lady looked at the boy sitting at the other table.
It seems that this is the biological mother of the little disciple that Xia Shi is going to accept.
At this time, the second lady looked at the glamorous lady very vaguely, and said softly: "Sister Wang's baby is probably a boy, and the so-called sour and hot girl is not fake. ”
Wang smiled and said, "Then thank you sister Jiyan." ”
Gu Juan heard a hint of provocation.
This big family is really, and you can have intrigue just by having a meal.
It's also a shame that Gu Juan was reborn into a simple family this time, if he was really born into a wealthy family, he would not be tired to death all day.
After eating this meal, Gu Juan learned a lot about the situation of the Ouyang family, among the concubines in several rooms, the most favored was the Wang family, but this Wang family had a pungent temperament and was a Sichuan person, and for some reason he was very fond of this cunning Ouyang Ren.
These days, there are even faintly more than the second lady.
This made the second lady who had been managing the middle feed feel a bit of danger, after all, she couldn't help but have a pair of children in the main room, as well as a son of the favored Wang family, and now, this Wang family is pregnant again, if it is a boy again, I am afraid that her position in this mansion will not be guaranteed.
However, Gu Juan was not worried about this, she only wanted to know what this Xia Shi wanted to get from this Ouyang Ren at this time.
Gu Juan guessed that it should be an account book, after all, if you want to bring down this person, you must start from the place where Jiajing hates the most, His Majesty Jiajing does not hate corruption, he hates those officials who are greedy for his silver and live better than him.
Therefore, if you want to completely defeat this person, you must make His Majesty Jiajing really disgusted with him.
