Chapter 368: The Banquet of the Anguo Mansion 2

There were many people who came today, and the Guogong Mansion opened the entire compound in the front yard.

At the back are four courtyards surrounding the garden, the Merlin and the lake.

Along the way, not only are there flowers, but also brightly dressed women can be seen everywhere.

The sedan chair stopped at the middle door of the inner courtyard, and another maid led it inside.

After walking for a while, seeing that the maid was going to the most lively main courtyard, Gu Xinyue frowned slightly, and said, "Why didn't you go to Ningxiang Courtyard?" ”

"Isn't the county lord going to see the lady first?" The maid gave a salute and said with surprise on her face.

Although the mother-in-law told her that she would send the county lord to the courtyard of the third girl, the county lord did not have the reason not to see the master beforehand.

Besides, the big girl next to Fu Qianchun has already explained that if the county lord comes, he must take him to see the Duchess of the country first.

Gu Xinyue glanced at her, snorted, and stopped talking.

Although this girl has a bad attitude, she is not wrong.

If Su Xingxing and Fu Qianxia came to pick it up, it would be okay, so they should go and say hello to the Duchess of Guo.

The closer you get to the main courtyard, the more flowers bloom, and in the snow, there are all kinds of flowers, chrysanthemums, orchids, roses, and even peonies.

These flowers that are not in season at all are planted in pots, closely placed together, and at a glance, it is like a sea of flowers, lined with the snow next to it, and it is even more prosperous and vibrant.

The ladies couldn't stay indoors, and they watched the flowers one by one.

Gu Xinyue was also stunned.

A pot of flowers that are not in season is worth a lot of money, and those famous products are a pot of 12,000 taels of silver.

Anguo Mansion is really rich.

It's also rich and low-key luxury.

She looks at the flowers, and others look at her.

As she walked by, the sound of inquiries from behind kept ringing out.

After someone said that it was the lord of Rongning, all kinds of discussions also sounded.

Hearing those whispers, Du Zhong unconsciously glanced back at those people with broken mouths, remembered them one by one in his heart, and then indifferently turned his head and followed Gu Xinyue into the main courtyard.

"That's the Lord of Rongning? It's okay to look good, too. A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl looked at Gu Xinyue's back, the corners of her lips provoked a contemptuous smile, and said, "It's suitable to match my brother." ”

"I heard that he is also soft-tempered, and he should not dare to take Qiao in front of Mrs. and Miss in the future." The maid next to her echoed.

The girl smiled reservedly and took the maid to the side to look at the flowers.

Two girls came out of the other side of the flower, and one of them snorted coldly: "This surnamed Zhang is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat." ”

"What did my sister say about this?" Another girl looked at it and said, "Then, it seems to be the eldest girl of the Hou Mansion of Guangcheng?" ”

"Yes, the Hou Mansion of Guangcheng is now in decay, and there is only one of the sons of this generation who has a little bit of promising, and he has a martial arts position in the Gyeonggi camp, and that son is not a serious son-in-law, but a concubine recorded in the name of Mrs. Hou." The first girl said disdainfully: "This is a delusional dream of marrying the county lord, you can have the general as your uncle, and you can have a ready-made second-grade official position, listen to her meaning, maybe you still count on the county lord's dowry to support the family." ”

"Wow! That's unthinkable! The girl in the back covered her mouth and laughed.

Gu Mohan is not only a general or a prince of Dingguo, a real powerful person, not to mention his sister-in-law, even Gu Xinyue's identity as the county lord, even the serious sister-in-law of the Hou Mansion may not be able to think about it, and he is just a nominal person.

After laughing, the girl said again: "Speaking of which, I heard from my mother that my aunt intended to talk about the general for you, but Lord Ouyang disagreed. ”

Ouyang Yuqian smiled faintly and said, "Who is the general?" Mother only thought that he was just a concubine, and he was still high with me, the granddaughter of Shangshu, but she didn't think of what status the general was now, besides, the emperor was afraid and didn't want to see the marriage between the Ouyang family and the general. ”

The girl pursed her lips and smiled, "However, there are not many people who can think as thoroughly as my sister." ”

Ouyang Yuqian glanced at Miss Zhang's direction and snorted coldly: "Those people are just thinking about themselves, if you really have the courage to mention it to the general, I admire them." ”

The girl's eyes rolled and she said, "I'm not talking about those, you see." ”

Ouyang Yuqian looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that on the flower path, a group of noble ladies who were looking at flowers were walking towards the main courtyard, and the first one was Mrs. Weiyuan Hou.

"You say, who will the general end up with?" The girl put her finger on her chin and said with interest.

With a snap, Ouyang Yuqian tapped her head and said, "Little girl's family, how do you talk about this?" General Gu fought bloodily, but he was a good man, how could he say that! ”

"Huh? But I heard that Gu Mohan has killed countless people, and he is a bloodthirsty and arrogant person, such a person is not a good husband. The girl said with a gentle shake of her fingers.

also remembered Gu Mohan's appearance in the rumors, Ouyang Yuqian's expression changed, and said: "How can a man look at his appearance, hey, you little girl, if you talk about a man again, see your aunt tear your mouth." ”

The girl cut and said: "My mother won't, my mother has said that the man who proposed marriage to me will definitely let me see it first." ”

"Speaking of which, isn't your family still a little close to the Gu Mansion? Why didn't my aunt think about walking around when she arrived in the capital? Ouyang Yuqian sighed.

"My mother handed a letter to the Gu Mansion and also sent the letter from the Jianghuai Hou Mansion to it, but the house said that the old lady had been paralyzed on the bed and couldn't see the guests, so my mother would forget it." The girl shrugged her shoulders and said, "It's a relative who has turned a corner, and my cousin who married into Jiang's mansion is not a troublemaker, so my mother doesn't want to do much." ”

"My father said that my uncle-in-law will return to Beijing this year to report on his work, but I am afraid that he will stay as the governor of Jiangnan, will you go back to Jiangnan with you, or will you stay in the capital?" Ouyang Yuqian asked.

"Who knows, let's stop standing here and talking, you see, many people have gone to the main courtyard, let's go see the excitement too." The girl tugged Ouyang Yuqian's hand.

"What's there to see? Isn't it just a group of women sitting there playing a sharp edge, didn't you say it, the smell of fat powder in there is smoking? Ouyang Yuqian said with a frown.

"Girl, girl." A maid hurriedly ran out of the yard, with excitement on her face, and when she saw the two of them, she rushed over quickly and whispered, "Madame called the two girls in to see the excitement." ”

"Lively?" Ouyang Yuqian glared at the girl who was really like this.

"Yes, that girl from the Bao family was beaten by the county lord when she entered the door." The maid covered her mouth and smiled.

"The Bao family? Who? Ouyang Yuqian thought for a while and said blankly.

"It's what the girl said last time, married a girl to the Xu family and then got a job as a waiter in the Ministry of Etiquette, and then because he didn't understand etiquette, he made a joke at the emperor's enthronement ceremony and was demoted to the Bao family."

"That?" Ouyang Yuqian was surprised: "Why was she beaten by the county lord?" ”
