Chapter 139: Hou Mansion's Birthday

At the gate of Yong'an Houfu, carriages were parked, and then from above came down one after another dressed guests. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Second Master Fan's words were very abrupt, and there was a strange silence around, Ruan Xian didn't want to deny it, she pursed her lips and shook her head, "I don't know the prince, Second Master Fan must have misunderstood." ”

Fan Shizi's eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't say much, but enthusiastically introduced Ruan Xian into the door, "Okay, okay, Mrs. Yan's first time in the house, it is really brilliant, I personally introduced Mrs. to Mrs., the old lady must be very happy to see Mrs. Second uncle, I'll bother you here, and my nephew will change back later. ”

Second Master Fan reacted quickly, there was no discoloration on his face, and he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, go ahead, madam, please." ”

Fan Zizhuo stretched out his hand, "Madam, please." ”

Ruan Xian smiled lightly, bowed slightly, and stepped into the gate of Yong'an in a hurry.

Yong'an Houfu occupies a wide area, entering the door is a straight avenue, the road is planted with precious flower gardens on both sides, through an arch, and bypassing a rockery and flowing water bridge, it will arrive at the venue where the old lady is preparing for the banquet, Fushou Zhai.

Fan Zizhuo was silent all the way, respectfully led the way, and when Ruan Xian was sent to Fushouzhai, he left respectfully, with a gentle and polite attitude, obviously trying to win Ruan Xian's favor. Ruan Xian was slightly grateful in her heart, and she was not badly impressed by this personable prince, and she was even more refreshed by the luxury and delicacy of this Yong'an Mansion.

In particular, the construction of each mansion is based on the product system, although Yan Xu is in a high position, this private house still cannot exceed the product system, and Yong'an Mansion is a big family that has lasted for a hundred years.

Stepping on the steps, immediately there is a flower-like maid to greet her, Rong Mama and Qing'er Hong'er followed closely behind her, Fushou Zhai has come to many distinguished guests, just arrived at the door, there was a bustling laughter inside, lively and extraordinary.

"Old lady, Mrs. Yan from the Yan Mansion, the head of the palace Lisi Lan, is here."

As the maid went in to report, the laughter inside stopped abruptly, Ruan Xian's face was calm and did not change for half a minute, and after a few seconds, the maid who went in to report just now came out, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Yan, please come in." ”

Ruan Xian smiled faintly and calmly stepped into the door of Fushou Zhai.

As soon as I entered, there were a lot of people.

On the left and right sides sat well-dressed ladies, the older sitting, the younger standing, a room full of red willow trees, purple and red, and the room wafted with a mixture of the smell of fat powder, but fortunately the windows and doors were wide open all around. There are ice basins in the corners all around, but they dissipate a lot of heat, otherwise so many people would not be suffocated in a room.

The first thing that came into his eyes was an old man who was full of energy, gray hair, and kind looking at himself with a smile, the old man was festive and dignified, with a rusty cloud bat pattern on his head, which looked very majestic, and he was graceful and kind in his majesty.

Presumably this is the old lady of Yong'an Mansion.

Ruan Xian secretly pinched her moist palm, and stepped forward to salute the junior without being humble or arrogant, "Yan Ruan has seen the old lady, and I wish the old lady good fortune like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan." ”

These two lines have long been said badly, Ruan Xian can't think of other congratulatory words, so she came up with them. Yan Xu had already explained, she came over today to make soy sauce, the scene was done, the shelf was served, and the time was almost up. As long as nothing goes wrong and you don't lose face for Yan Fu.

"Mrs. Yan, please get up, please get up." The old lady raised her hand with a smile, looked carefully at Ruan Xian from top to bottom, and finally fixed her gaze on her face, "Mrs. Yan has always lived in a simple place, and it is really an honor for the old man to come to congratulate the old man on his birthday today." ”

Ruan Xian was busy and said humbly, "The old lady praised it falsely, the old lady has a 60th birthday, and Ah Xian should come to be blessed." ”

The old lady smiled enthusiastically, and asked the subordinates to bring a stool to invite Ruan Xian to take a seat, Ruan Xian felt the eyes of the surroundings one by one, openly and secretly, there were various eyes such as surprise, suspicion, disdain, indifference, etc., and she calmly responded to the old lady. The old lady was very enthusiastic, and also introduced several other ladies around her, Ruan Xian saw the salute one by one, and matched the names of the people in her heart one by one, and after greeting for a while, the maid came in again to report.

Another distinguished guest came.

Ruan Xian instinctively stopped talking, looked at the door with the others, and then saw a noblewoman dressed in grace and luxury with two young girls who were like flowers and jade. As soon as the noble lady came in, she greeted the old lady enthusiastically, calling her aunt and aunt, and the two girls behind her called her aunt delicately.

It turned out to be the old lady's niece and daughter.

Ruan Xian sat quietly without squinting, deciding not to speak much if it was not necessary, and striving to create a dignified image of silence and restraint, while quietly looking at the people in the room, silently remembering the appearance and identity of these people in her heart, which would inevitably encounter a collision in the future.

Today, she participated in the birthday banquet of the old lady in Yong'an, which is equivalent to officially entering the sight of the famous ladies in the capital, and in the future, I am afraid that it will not be as quiet as before.

In the following time, the old lady didn't have to stop, and one after another female guests came to say goodbye.

The other ladies who arrived early either sat next to them, or found acquaintances and friends to bite their ears and chat, and the younger daughters were specially placed in a pavilion next door by the eldest lady of Yongan Houfu, and the ladies took the maids to chat, drink tea and eat pastries in it, everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

Only Ruan Xian, who was attending the banquet for the first time and was unfamiliar with Mrs. Yan, sat dry, and the ladies next to her did not pay attention to her, she simply enjoyed herself and watched quietly without saying a word.

I just watched quietly.

Ruan Xian didn't know that her identity was embarrassing, Yong'an Houfu was a famous family in Kyoto, and the officials and nobles who could receive invitations to celebrate her birthday were all famous in the capital. And she is just the daughter-in-law of a eunuch, Yan Xu is high and powerful, and she is deeply trusted by the emperor, but in the hearts of these wealthy ladies and daughters, no matter how powerful the eunuch is, she is also a slave in the final analysis, and now they are already endured with the daughter-in-law of the slave, but if they bend down to make a eunuch daughter-in-law, they will never do it.

Therefore, these famous nobles or something, obviously not as powerful, but they are still very arrogant.

Yan Xu just looked at Fan Guifei's face and asked her to come over to make a face, Ruan Xian actually didn't have the slightest burden in her heart.

It was almost noon, the old lady finally raised his hand to speak, the banquet was about to start, the Hou Mansion couldn't help but prepare delicious dishes for everyone, and invited the famous opera troupe in the capital to enter the house, please eat and drink well, and move to watch the play after being full of wine and food......

The food in the Hou Mansion is indeed good, but for a person like Ruan Xian, who is used to eating the tastes of the palace and comes from the Great Modern Times, it is too much of a piece of cake. After everyone was full of wine and food, Ruan Xian followed everyone to the back garden of the Hou Mansion to watch the play.

A gorgeous theater was set up in the back garden of the Hou Mansion, everyone sat in the comfortable pavilion to watch the play, Ruan Xian held a cup of sour plum soup and drank it deliciously, suddenly, a gentle and friendly voice came from beside her, "But Mrs. Yan?" ”

Ruan Xian was stunned and turned her head in surprise.

Seeing a lady in her twenties combing her hair, with white skin and beautiful face, she was looking at herself with a smile, the woman was delicate in appearance and gentle in temperament, Ruan Xian squinted slightly, and vaguely felt a little familiar, but she couldn't think of anything for a while. She was left out in the cold for most of the day, and suddenly a noble lady took the initiative to approach her, abnormal is a demon, and she couldn't help but be a little vigilant in her heart.
