Chapter 25: The Banquet
At the beginning of May, the weather was a little warmer, the heavy mink cloak had been replaced with a brocade cloak, Nie Qishu was wearing a light green embroidered makeup skirt, with tassel sideburns, and the white jade peach hairpin put the finishing touch between the hairpins, which was even more beautiful and extraordinary. The Downing County Lord www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion looks at quite a bit of my family's feelings that a woman has just grown up.
In the upper room, he asked the county lord of Tangning to say goodbye, and after being held by his hand and instructed a few words, Nie Qishu came to Changning Houfu in a warm sedan chair.
The eldest lady of Changning Houfu, Bai Shi, heard that someone from the Zhenguo Mansion had come, and she was still the new daughter of the grandfather of the country and the county lord, and showed a surprised expression, the Guogong Mansion can be said to be an exception to the merits of the capital, you say that he is not in the core of power, but he is a real representative of the real power faction of the super first-class Guogong. Most of the forces in the army are in the hands of the Zhenguo Gong, you say she is at the core of power, and the county lord of Tangning never participates in any noblewomen's social entertainment. It's just an essential big banquet like a wedding and birthday party.
In this way, there are only a few people who can make the county lord of Downing attend in person. People are rumoring behind the back that the Guogong Mansion is a possibility, only the Guogong himself knows that the emperor doesn't like to form a party for personal gain, the Guogong Mansion is already standing on the cusp of the storm, if it is still exquisite, I am afraid that the emperor will not be able to calm down and clean them up.
Mrs. Bai thought, this is different again, what came was a little lady who had just been recognized by the Guogong Mansion, and the girl who had not left the cabinet was different from the lady of the Guogong Mansion, she always had to go out to see the world, recognize people or something, and the social circle in the future was not all formed like this, and the identity was not as expensive as the Lord of Tangning.
Madame Bai immediately called a few ladies in the house to go out to entertain Nie Qishu, with Nie Qishu's stunning appearance, everyone was amazed, and kept praising the posture of the city, shocked, in the corner of the flower hall, Mrs. Nie Fu, who was talking to a few ladies just now, was about to drip at this moment. Nie Qishu, a little slut, has harmed their family so badly, but she is living a leisurely life. The handkerchief on his hand was about to tear up.
There is a good thing sour and sour, "Yo, it's so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it, is this the fourth lady of Nie's mansion, why didn't I find it before, Mrs. Nie's niece is so like a fairy descending to earth, I see how it is more beautiful than Yuan Niang!" ”
The eldest lady's face was even more ugly, and she returned with a weird yin and yang, "Oh, isn't this the wife of Taichang Shaoqing Tong?" It's normal for you not to know, after all, these days for the sake of the Tong adult's physical and mental emaciation, how can there be such leisure" Who here doesn't know which adult Tong offended a few days ago, and he was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department. It was only recently released. Mrs. Tong has been running for this reason, and she has lost a lot of weight, but the specific thing seems to be because of Nie Xiuyuan, and Mrs. Tong also knows a little about the farce of the Nie family, after all, there were so many people at the birthday banquet of the old lady of Nie Mansion last time, and then it was rumored, and the husband was implicated in Nie Xiuyuan and went to prison, so he couldn't help but sarcastically mock Mrs. Nie.
Of course, she couldn't give up when she was pushed back like this by Mrs. Nie, and continued to add fire and said, "Ah, the fourth lady is now the daughter of the grandfather of the country, so you can't call the fourth lady, how can you call it now?"
Nie Qishu also noticed the movement here, and said disdainfully, "Don't you dare to be Mrs. Tong and call the fourth lady, I don't dare to have anything to do with the Nie family, otherwise, I will be framed, forced to marry, framed, but I don't have a life to live in the world, so the ladies will call me Shu Niang."
In an instant, the entire flower hall was silent, as if it had fallen into an endless void, and time stood still, everyone didn't expect Nie Qishu to be so unabashedly hostile to her contradictions and hatred with the Nie family, and she was unwilling to even maintain the silence on the surface, and her temper was so straightforward, undisguised, and she did whatever she wanted.
Or Mrs. Bai rushed over after receiving the news, and said with a smile, "You are really a rare guest today, but you can only go back when you have a good time, and you can tell your mother about our liveliness here, so that she will never participate in our entertainment." ”
"Mother has been in poor health since she gave birth to her brother, and the doctor said that she can only recuperate, and it is inevitable that she will neglect your aunts and aunts.
Everyone smiled and said, welcome, can't ask for something like that, but in their hearts they prayed that this evil god would never come to their own house for a banquet. If you have a grudge against someone who is not in harmony and come out like this again, then as the host of the banquet, won't you also be embarrassed.
After the situation was opened, everyone returned to normal, and everyone here was a person who had experienced the sword and sword shadow of the back house, and a few ladies and ladies also stepped forward to talk to Nie Qishu. Everything was as if it hadn't happened, only Mrs. Nie, who had a crooked nose, proved that all this had happened.
In fact, Nie Qishu's words just now also have a deep meaning, that is, she will come forward for the entertainment of the Guogong Mansion in the future, and the county lord will give her this right, which is enough to explain his status in the Guogong Mansion, and judging from the situation just now, as long as there is a place where she is, the Nie family will not be able to please her, and whoever dares to get close to the Nie family will offend the Guogong Mansion.
Everything in the flower hall has already been reported to the old lady Gu of Changning Houfu, the old lady pondered for a long time, and said to the grandmother beside her, "Just say that I have blown a cold wind and have a bad head, and the things ahead are handed over to the eldest daughter-in-law, I will not go out, and no one will see anyone for a while."
Sure enough, Mrs. Nie, who came to talk to the old lady, was blocked from the door.
The angry lady didn't wait for the banquet to start, so she excused herself and went back first. What kind of head disease, I was fine in the morning, and I had a head disease in just a while? Do you think he's a three-year-old?
Unexpectedly, the things at the banquet in Changning Houfu spread quickly, and Mrs. Nie had just arrived home with her front foot, and the back foot of debt collection came to collect debts. stirred up the Nie family again.
Besides, on Nie Qishu's side, many ladies are not cautious in front of Nie Qishu, and they don't dare to say anything at will. Although the emperor did not add officials to the grandfather, he couldn't stand the rewards and carried them to the palace in a steady stream, among which the tribute treasures were dazzling. Besides, why didn't you increase the official, it's not because of the lady in front of you.
Nie Qishu felt everyone's thoughts, and her heart was full of thoughts, this is the feeling of the superior, this is the feeling of me for the sword and the fish, the revenge against the Nie family has just begun, how boring it is to beat you to death with a stick. What I heard most from many ladies during the banquet was that this year's imperial examination was about to start, and Nie Funing won the first place in the examination, so Nie Qishu specially instructed Xiang Zhe to say hello to the examiner this time and 'take care' of Nie Funing, sometimes the higher a person stands, the more it hurts when he falls, these are all afterwords. Let's just say that some people have been looking at Nie Qishu unpleasantly for a long time.
