Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Female Guest

Today, the Liu family's guests in the West Warm Pavilion are all dignitaries in Beijing, the wives and grandmothers of the hairpin family, Mrs. Liu asked Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan to dress up, and it is such a rhetoric, obviously, she wants to match Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan.

Liu Ruojuan is fifteen years old this year, and it is time to start saying goodbye. And Liu Ruoyuan is already seventeen years old, and it will be too late if she doesn't say goodbye. In Beijing, most of the girls of Liu Ruoyuan's age have already married, and some have even become mothers. Liu Ruoyuan's family affair was indeed delayed because of the filial piety of Mrs. Liu, but it was not as Mrs. Liu said. Liu Ruoxi remembered that when Mrs. Liu was still there, there were two families who revealed what they meant about Liu Ruoyuan, but they were both rejected by Mrs. Liu. Because Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoyuan didn't take a fancy to each other, they felt that the other party's family background was average and they couldn't match Liu Ruoyuan.

No one thought that Mrs. Liu was sick that time, and she didn't survive it. Now that she has been filial piety, Liu Ruoyuan has grown to seventeen years old, and Mrs. Liu is in a hurry.

Liu Ruoyuan thinks very highly of herself, and Mrs. Liu also loves this daughter like a treasure, and she doesn't know what kind of dignitary she has to find to be satisfied.

Liu Ruoshan paused slightly at the door, and Liu Ruoshan on the side had already quietly instructed the little girl who followed and asked the little girl to report to Mrs. Liu San.

"Third sister, let's go in." Liu Ruoshan urged Liu Ruoshan to say.

Liu Ruoxi thought about it and nodded. She knew Liu Ruoshan's thoughts and was willing to help her with this. The little girl opened the curtain, and Liu Ruoshan and Liu Ruoshan entered the warm pavilion hand in hand.

In the warm pavilion, Liu Ruoyuan sat next to Mrs. Liu, hanging her head slightly. His face was slightly red, and he rarely showed a little shyness. Mrs. Liu and Liu Da/Grandma only praised Liu Ruoyuan. There was no mention of Liu Ruojuan. Liu Ruojuan sat quietly on the side, a little pale by Liu Ruoyuan's brilliance. But he also seems to be a little shy.

As soon as Liu Ruoshan entered the door, Liu Da/Grandma saw it, and naturally saw Liu Ruoshan as well. Liu Da/Grandma got up and greeted him.

"The third sister is here." Liu Da/Grandma took Liu Ruoshan's hand, her attitude was very affectionate, and then, as if she suddenly saw Liu Ruoshan, she sighed, "The fourth sister is also here." ”

The old lady commanded. Let me and the third sister come over, help the eldest lady and Jiang Da/grandma, and talk to the guests. Liu Ruoshan said, her voice crisp. Liu Ruoshan doesn't care if Liu Da/Grandma is called Sister-in-law, and she doesn't call her Da/Grandma like others, but Jiang Da/Grandma. There's a reason for that.

In Liu Yujiang's generation, although he is the elder, he is a concubine. Liu Yuxiang is the eldest of his grandsons. Mrs. Liu's side was faintly revealed, and Liu Yuxiang was the eldest grandson of the Liu family.

Over there, Liu Ruoyuan raised her head when she heard the voice. Seeing Liu Ruoshan and Liu Ruoshan, she couldn't help frowning slightly. However, noticing the many stares around her, she quickly furrowed her brow. He also had a smile on his face.

"Three girls and four girls are here? Come and sit. Mrs. Liu said.

Liu Ruoxi and Liu Ruoshan stepped forward and saluted Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu instructed Mrs. Liu/Grandma, "You accompany your two younger sisters." They are too young to be wronged. "But let Liu Da/Grandma take Liu Ruoxi and Liu Ruoshan to sit next to her.

"Girl." Liu Ruoxi stood still. Then she heard someone call to her, and turned her head. Liu Ruoxi smiled.

Liu Ruoxi was greeted by a middle-aged lady wearing an old green silk gown and dressed in an extremely luxurious manner, Liu Ruoxi recognized this lady, who was the wife of Liu Yi, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, Zhao. Liu Yi, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and Liu Er, the second master, are Jinshi in the same department, and the two have some friendship. Second Mrs. Liu has taken Liu Ruoxi to meet Mrs. Zhao many times, and she is very familiar.

"Fifth aunt." Liu Ruoxi hurriedly went over and blessed Mrs. Zhao. Because the two families are friendly, Liu Yi is the fifth in the Liu family, so Liu Ruoji also calls the Zhao family the fifth aunt with the children of the Liu family to show her closeness.

"Hey, come over here and let me take a good look." Zhao took Liu Ruoxi's hand, pulled Liu Ruoxi in front of him, and looked at it carefully, "I heard from them that you were sick a while ago, but now you look very well." Look at this little / face, red and fluttering, more watery than it looked a while ago. I envy you/mother, how can you be so good at giving birth. Girls with such a logo, just change it with my family. Swap those two stinky boys in my house for you/mother, and you'll follow me......"

The Zhao family has twin sons, who are a year younger than Liu Ruoxi, and are said to be stubborn and abnormal. Every time Zhao saw Liu Ruoxi, he had to make this joke with her.

Liu Ruoxi couldn't help laughing, and the wives and grandmothers sitting next to her couldn't help laughing.

"This is the girl of Scholar Liu? How old are you this year? Someone next to him asked, Liu Ruoxi glanced at it, and she also knew it, but she didn't know it, it was Uncle Dingyuan's wife Chu. There are three brothers in the Liu family, but when mortals talk about Liu University, they must be referring to the second master Liu.

"This kid should be fifteen this year, right, what is it?" The person who said this was Chen, the wife of the Ministry of Rites, and Liu Ruoxi recognized her.

Liu Ruoxi grew up in Beijing since she was a child, although Mrs. Liu Er doesn't care about anything, but she has the name of Liu Er's master, and she knows all the dignitaries in Beijing who come and go at home. Liu Ruoyuan was surrounded by wives and grandmothers to talk, and Liu Ruoyuan was left out in the cold, and it was Liu Ruoshan who was even more neglected.

Liu Ruoshan hurriedly beckoned, called Liu Ruoshan to her side, and introduced her to several ladies she was familiar with.

"This is my fourth sister, whose name is Ruoshan, who came back from outside Beijing with our third uncle and third aunt."

Liu Ruoshan is also clever and very generous, she is not shy when she sees so many people, so she bowed to a few ladies, and stepped forward and sat next to Liu Ruoxi. Most of the people present had never seen Liu Ruoshan, so they couldn't help but ask again.

“…… Is she fifteen years old, two months younger than her sister-in-law? Oops, it's also a beauty billet. ”

"It's really good feng shui in your family, and you have raised so many girls who are smart, one by one. It's so enviable......"

"It's all such a good age, I'm afraid that the threshold of your family is really going to be broken by the matchmaker......"

Mrs. Liu and Liu Da/Grandma had to laugh together.

"You/Mother?" Zhao asked Liu Ruoxi.

"I waited in front of the old lady, and the old lady said that there was something. I guess I'll be able to come over in a while. Liu Ruoxi told Zhao Shidao.

Mrs. Liu may not let Mrs. Liu San meet her guests. But she didn't dare, and she couldn't stop Mrs. Liu. After all. Second Master Liu served in the Hanlin Academy and had a wide range of contacts. But Master Liu San had just come back from outside Beijing.

As he was talking, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the warm pavilion, and a little girl ran in to report that Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San had arrived.

Liu Ruoshan was immediately happy and quietly squeezed Liu Ruoshan's hand. Over there, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu/Grandma exchanged glances, and it seemed that they were not very surprised by Mrs. Liu's arrival. Mrs. Liusan's pungency, after all, they have already seen it.

Liu Da/Grandma got up and went to the door to welcome Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San. Everyone inevitably greeted each other again and exchanged pleasantries. Mrs. Liu is still dressed the same as when she went to Mrs. Liu in the morning, but Mrs. Liu has changed her outfit again, and she is dressed in a rich and gorgeous manner, which is dazzling.

Everyone sat down and chatted with each other. Mrs. Liu San has never been a woman who is willing to be left behind, and today it seems that she is deliberately trying to overpower Mrs. Liu, and after a while, only her laughter will be heard in the room. Soon I became familiar with the wives and grandmothers. Somehow, the conversation turned to the Liu Ruoxi sisters again.

"The three girls in our family really don't have to choose. The appearance is good, and the talent is good. Temperament is also good. It's as big as our girl. Filial piety to the elders is not only good, but also good for younger brothers and sisters. is humble in words and deeds, which is indeed the demeanor of the eldest sister. Mrs. Liu San praised Liu Ruoxi. Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan were not mentioned at all in the words.

Then, I talked about Liu Ruoshan again.

"We girls. Everything else is fine, but it's a little coquettish. But he also said that Liu Ruoshan was good for needlework. Since she was a child, she will help her on the board.

"Have the four girls ever been married?" A grandmother asked.

"No, I was young. Now, I was about to find a family affair in the capital for her...... "Mrs. Liu San immediately said, speaking of which, she still didn't forget Liu Ruoxi, "Our three girls should also say goodbye." ”

Over there, Mrs. Liu's and grandmother's faces were a little unsightly, and Liu Ruoyuan's face was even more red, but Liu Ruojuan lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly.

Soon, Mrs. Liu beckoned everyone to the table, and the small drama on the stage outside also babbled and sang.

When the banquet was withdrawn, and tea was drunk for a while, and all the ladies and relatives had dispersed, it was already dark. By this time, the distinguished guests had already finished entertaining, and the rest were just relatives and family members waiting for a banquet, so everyone was relieved to come here.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu/Grandma still have to watch people clean up, Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan don't know when they will leave early. Liu Ruoxi followed Mrs. Liu, and next to Mrs. Liu San, with Liu Ruoshan, slowly walked out of the warm pavilion and walked outside the garden.

Mrs. Liu San seemed to be very proud today, talking and laughing all the way.

“…… Just for herself, where to look like a clan woman and a wife. On such an occasion, they should not have brought all their sisters over a long time ago, but only her own daughter. Fang was bumped into by the third girl and the fourth girl, and wanted to break up the two of them. Mrs. Liu San approached Mrs. Liu and said in a slightly lowered voice.

"Thanks to these two kids, they are clever. The four girls sent someone to find me. Our three girls are good girls, with good hearts, just like your sister-in-law, you know how to take care of our four girls. ”

Mrs. Liu San and Mrs. Liu talked intensively, so they said what was in their hearts.

"Don't hide it from the second sister-in-law, the first thing when I come back this time is that our master is on an errand. The second thing is the children's family affairs. I discussed with our lord that the children's future relatives should still be settled in the capital. "If it weren't for that, Mrs. Liu San's heart would not have been willing to return to the capital.

Liu Yuxiang and Liu Ruoshan have both reached the age when they should discuss their relatives, and depending on Mrs. Liu's plan, they will return to the capital to arrange the family affairs of the two brothers and sisters.

"It's better to stay in the capital, it's more stable." Second Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "Look at the two aunts and wives of our family, they haven't seen each other for a few years." "Even if Mrs. Liu celebrated her birthday this time, she only sent someone to give her birthday gift. An aunt has no choice but to go. The one who is alive is also in bad health and bones, and cannot go far away.

"It's okay for Erlang to marry a daughter-in-law, but if the fourth girl marries outside, it's not easy to say in the future."

"That's what I thought too." Mrs. Liu San nodded, thinking that Mrs. Liu Er's words were very confusing. She didn't know what to remember, and her eyes were a little dark, "When we went out back then, the second sister-in-law also knew something about it, and there were some unavoidable ......"

Mrs. Liu San was about to continue the deep conversation with Mrs. Liu, but she saw a little girl hurrying over.

"The old lady asked the third lady to come over, I have something to say." The little girl approached, saluted, and said.
