Chapter 141: Ugly Daughter-in-law
Ke Zhengdong, the second lord of Kefu, quickly launched the matter of supporting his concubine as a flat wife in the capital. Many old things about Ke Zhengdong back then were also brought up by many people for a while. In an instant, Kefu became the object of people's discussion after tea and dinner.
On this day, people came and went in Kefu, and it was a tea party prepared by Mrs. Xia, the new lady in the second room of Kefu. There were a lot of people who came, all of them were curious about what kind of woman made the second master of Kefu infatuated for a lifetime. There are also many handkerchiefs from the Yu family, who came to visit the Yu family and came to see Mrs. Xia by the way.
No matter what purpose the person came to, anyway, everyone had their own thoughts, just to see Mrs. Xia.
When Mrs. Xia and Lu appeared together, everyone's eyes lit up.
She was wearing a light-colored Luo skirt with silver filigree edges, a water-fug. colored gauze with a manly waist, and a long skirt with violet painted hibiscus trailing the bottom and pulling the placket to the waist and sleeves. With a slight smile, the skin of jade is as smooth as a pearl, the eyes are as clear as a stream under the ice, not stained with a trace of the dirt of the world, and the eyelashes are long and thick, slightly upturned like a fan. A pair of soft and slender and fair, the elegant orchids embroidered at the cuffs are lined with ten fingers like shaving onions, and the delicate red lips are shining with crystal color, gently bending out a beautiful arc. The rounded earlobes have a light blue tassel pendant, which is light and can dance slowly with a little wind. There is a piece of jade jade pendant tied around the waist, which adds an elegant atmosphere. With a milky white jade bracelet on his hand, because it is the master's house today, he pulled a hibiscus bun, his sandalwood lips smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were full of warmth, and his pupils were fragmented.
"Thank you all for coming here, posting to you for the first time, it's a pleasure to see you!"
With her words, everyone came back to their senses. All of you here are people who have been in the inner house for a long time. I have seen all kinds of beauties, but it is rare to see them like Mrs. Xia. Everyone couldn't help but sigh, no wonder Second Master Ke was fascinated by this goddess all his life. It is really a feeling of beauty and dust, and the temperament is also very good, and the behavior is also generous.
"I have heard the name of Mrs. Xia for a long time, and I will see it today. It's really extraordinary. I also hope that Mrs. will have more contact with us in the future! ”。 Since Mrs. Yang married into the Xianwang Mansion, she likes Ke Xiyuan and Lu Jiarou very much. This time, I learned that Mrs. Xia was Ke Xiyuan's biological mother, so she naturally wanted to come to the front. At first sight of Mrs. Xia. I can't help but like it.
Sixi reminded Mrs. Xia softly behind her, and Mrs. Xia was relieved and said with a smile, "Mrs. Jiuwen is very knowledgeable. If you have the opportunity, you will definitely talk to your wife! ”
Mrs. Yang nodded. "Waiting for the good news of the lady!"
"I said who did our fifth miss follow, she was already a celestial figure at a young age, and it turned out that she followed Mrs. Xia! Madame is so good-looking, I really haven't seen such a beauty as Madame. ”。 It was Zhuang who spoke, and this time he came to see Yu. I didn't expect Yu to be so sick.
Mrs. Xia picked up the handkerchief to cover her mouth and smiled, "Mrs. Bo said she was laughing!" Who doesn't know. Our uncle worked hard to marry the first beauty in the capital! In front of my wife, how dare I claim to have a good face, isn't that an axe? ”
Zhuang was stunned and shook his handkerchief, "The old things of adulthood are not worth mentioning!" Madame is so humble, no wonder Miss Five is so good! ”
Lu Shi was next to Mrs. Xia, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "I'm very happy that everyone can come!" To say that my sister Xia is really a good person. Not only is she generous and decent, but she is also an out-and-out talented woman. Today is a good day for her, and she wanted to have a big feast to celebrate, but she refused, so there is today's tea party! ”
"Oh? How can you refuse? Zhuang raised his eyebrows, and there was something mixed in his words.
"No, my younger brother and sister are seriously ill, and when they are sober during their illness, they belong to my second uncle, saying that they have no children for many years, and Mrs. Xia has meritorious service in giving birth to children, and she has been humble and polite for many years, so she should be promoted to a flat wife. My two siblings are such wonderful people, and I am very happy to see them so good. My sister Xia insisted that my younger brother and sister are sick and it is not good to celebrate, so please come to know each other, and it will be good to communicate in the future! The refreshments that everyone drinks today are carefully prepared by Sister Xia herself, everyone must taste them! Lu Shi has been in the circle of Beijing for a long time, and she still has a certain status when she speaks, and her words not only praise Yu's family, but also affirm Mrs. Xia, and also show her attitude.
Sure enough, as soon as Lu finished speaking, the atmosphere of the tea party also became lively, and many people talked around Mrs. Xia, and their attitudes were obviously very good. It's Zhuang's, and his attitude is much better, without a talented tone.
The Lin family and the Huang family from the Renyi Bo Mansion also came over, and both of them observed Mrs. Xia and exchanged glances. Especially the Lin family, the eyes that looked at Mrs. Xia also changed. Originally, the Lin family was very uncomfortable in his heart, obviously he gave birth to a grandson in the eldest house, but he wanted to marry a concubine. So last time, she came to see Ke Xiyuan in a hurry, just to see what kind of young lady she could praise her father-in-law, and her son didn't object.
The last time the Wang family played Tai Chi, they didn't let the Lin family see Ke Xiyuan, which made the Lin family even more bottomless. Could it be that the fifth lady is really bad? Earlier, I heard about the prince of King Ning and the leakage of the portrait, which made the Lin family sleep a lot less and sleep peacefully.
But seeing Mrs. Xia today, the Lin family at least breathed a sigh of relief. There seem to be many people here who are full of praise for Ke Xiyuan, it seems that he is a good boy.
Huang squeezed Lin's hand, Lin nodded, and the two got up together and went to Mrs. Xia's side.
"It's really happy to see my sister's appearance, the old lady in the house is our aunt in the house, if this is said, we can also call my sister a brother and sister, I don't know what my sister thinks?" , the Huang family is more outgoing and straightforward, looking at Mrs. Xia's appearance, her heart is stable.
Lin patted Huang's hand, "That's not possible!" It's great to call my sister! I'm not ......"
Huang immediately responded, "Yes, yes, yes!" Look at my memory! Sister, don't blame, I'm just like that, on a whim, I almost forgot about business! ”
Mrs. Xia glanced at the two of them, thought of Ke Xiyuan's attitude, sighed secretly, and said with a smile, "I also feel comfortable looking at the two sisters, the sisters are very commensurate, so I will be two more sisters!" ”
Lin was very satisfied, and when he heard that Mrs. Xia had been promoted to a flat wife, he was a little disdainful at first. After all, there are many foxes in those concubines in his house. Now looking at this Aunt Xia, her eyes are firm, and her behavior is excellent, she is really well-educated.
"Mrs. Xia, I don't like to beat around the bush, today, one is Mrs. He's joy, and the other is to see the fifth lady in the house. I heard that Miss Fifth is outstanding, knows people, and writes well, so I really want to see her. I don't know how Mrs. ......", the Lin family is a little unsure, this Mrs. Xia doesn't know whether she likes this family business or not.
"Look at what my sister said! It was my negligence! It's long overdue for her to come out and meet the elders! A few days ago, Yuanyuan was infected with a cold, and I was a little nervous, and I didn't remember to take her out for a while! Turning his head, "Sixi, go to Mozhu Courtyard and let your fifth lady come out to meet the ladies!" ”
"Yes!" , Sixi responded with a smile and turned to leave. Since Mrs. Xia met the Wang family, Sixi went to Mrs. Xia's side.
Huang secretly pulled Lalin, and his face was full of satisfied smiles. It seems that they are too careful, this child is really infected with the wind and cold.
After about two teas, Ke Xiyuan came, wearing a tulip-colored pearl skirt, wearing a feather satin cloak with a silver-white background and emerald brocade that she often wears, combing a neat Ruyi bun, and saluting everyone, "I have just recovered from a serious illness, come to salute late, and please bear with me!" ”
Everyone's breath stagnated again, as if they saw a miniature version of Mrs. Xia. Looking at her behavior again, it is simply impossible to find fault. Everyone sighed again, sure enough, it was a young lady raised by Mrs. Xia, which should not be underestimated.
Lin squinted, looked Ke Xiyuan up and down, and his heart fell into place, "Good boy, I came to see you, your grandmother said you were sick!" When I see it today, I can know that these days are really hard! It's windy here, so get dressed! ”
Only then did everyone find out that the eldest wife of Renyi Bofu, the Lin family, was so active to Ke Xiyuan. I thought of it again, I seemed to have heard rumors before that Renyi Bofu asked for the fifth lady of Kefu to marry the fifth lady of Kefu on behalf of their eldest young master. This association, and looking at the appearance of the Lin family, I know that the good things of these two mansions are near. Some ladies can't help but regret that such a good girl was snatched away by other mansions! Yes, Miss Ke Wu was just a concubine before, but in a short period of time, she became a genuine concubine. They had to sigh that Lin was still prescient.
"The last time we couldn't meet, Yuanyuan has always felt regretful. Yuanyuan is very happy to see Mrs. today! ", they all say that the ugly daughter-in-law sees her in-laws, this woman will be her mother-in-law in the future, right? Ke Xiyuan couldn't express the feeling, only felt that his body and words were stiff, although he swayed freely, there was a sense of heaviness.
"Good, good! With such fate, you should give this child a greeting gift! After speaking, he took a box from the maid behind him, opened it and showed it to Ke Xiyuan, "Take a look, do you still like it?" ”
In the box lies a twelve-winged red gold jade phoenix hairpin, which is very exquisite in workmanship and looks very precious.
"This ...... It's so precious! Ke Xiyuan subconsciously glanced at Mrs. Xia, and when she saw her smiling, she knew that Mrs. Xia was very satisfied this time, and saw that Lin's face seemed to show an anxious look, so she lowered her head and hid her feelings, "But my mother taught me, and the elders didn't dare to quit!" Thank you, Madame! ”
Lin Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and was not angry at Ke Xiyuan's hesitation, but was happy. is really a good girl who understands etiquette, and she knows what it means to ask her mother. smiled and took out the phoenix hairpin from the box, helped Ke Xiyuan plug it in, and looked at it again and again with satisfaction, "Good, good, good!" ”
Ke Xiyuan's hand hidden in his sleeve pinched and pinched, and his heart suddenly became confused...... (To be continued)
