Chapter 57: The Great Wedding (10)
Mrs. Han Yang looks like she is only in her thirties, but because she is well-maintained and dressed elegantly, she looks stable and imposing. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This is Fang Mingzhu's first impression of her.
Seeing Mrs. Meng, she was also a little surprised. originally thought that she was just an old lady from the countryside, at best an old lady from a squire's family, and when she saw herself, she would definitely shrink a little. Who knew that Mrs. Meng gave people a very calm feeling at a glance, and her all-round style was not lost to the ancestors of those families in the capital.
Moreover, Mrs. Meng's appearance always made her feel a little familiar. But for a moment, I couldn't remember what was going on.
After seeing Fang Mingzhu, Mrs. Han felt even more that she had come to the right place this time.
According to her previous impression, although Fang Mingzhu said that she was the daughter of the Prime Minister's house, she seemed to have never been famous, because she was just a concubine after all. When she was socializing with Mrs. Fang before, Fang Mingzhu didn't seem to be very conspicuous.
But now seeing that Fang Mingzhu, who was a little sick and weak, greeted her with humility and arrogance, and politely talked to her about all kinds of things in the capital, she couldn't help but secretly marvel, she was worthy of being a daughter cultivated by the Prime Minister's Mansion, elegant and funny between conversations, and her words and deeds made people close and gave people a proper sense of distance. Such a girl is the daughter of the family carefully cultivated, and her demeanor is nothing more than that. Moreover, Fang Mingzhu still seems to have a faint sense of superiority, and if she doesn't look closely, there seems to be no way to find the alienation under her friendly appearance.
When Fang Mingzhu asked An Niang to come out to meet guests, the little well-behaved and lovely An Niang won the favor of Mrs. Han very much. And a girl dressed as a girl by her side also attracted the attention of Mrs. Han for the first time.
After perceiving Mrs. Han's gaze, Zhou Qingyu suddenly became alert. When her father did not have a crime, she followed her mother in and out of the social circle of the capital. This Mrs. Han, although she didn't have much contact before, her inquiring eyes couldn't help but attract her attention!
She couldn't afford to be negligent, because her father's business was very important. She wants to stay incognito and find an opportunity to clear her father's grievances. If her identity is discovered, then not only will she implicate the Meng family, but I am afraid that her plan will be completely bankrupt. She can't afford to gamble!
Moreover, now she is not only alone, she also has an ally Fang Mingzhu. No matter what they want to do or how to do it, they must consult with each other and work together!
After accompanying An Niang to Fang Mingzhu to show up, Zhou Qingyu excused herself to be unwell and no longer appeared in front of people.
An Niang has always been the most kind and considerate, and when she heard her say that she was unwell, she was very happy to let her go back to rest.
And Mrs. Han naturally won't miss this small detail. In front of Fang Mingzhu, she asked as if unintentionally: "Madame was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion and acts generously and cheerfully, so the son-in-law brought out is also so well-behaved and cute." In my opinion, even the girls around her seem to be better than ordinary young ladies. That look, that rule, it's all first-class good! I don't know how Mrs. trained me, it makes me so envious! ”
Fang Mingzhu didn't wait to hear what she said, she couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed in her heart, she should have informed Zhou Qingyu earlier, and didn't follow An Niang out. Hearing Mrs. Han's words, she obviously paid attention to Qingyu.
Qingyu's identity is special, and it can't be leaked out casually. Although she didn't know whether this Mrs. Han was intentional or unintentional, her subconscious reaction was to cover up Qingyu.
Glancing at An Niang who was smiling, Fang Mingzhu said to her, "Madame is too polite!" How can we be as good as Madame says? That girl, but my mother-in-law brought it from the countryside, has followed An Niang since she was a child, and she also knows a few words, and she knows a little bit of rules! ”
Mrs. Han was slightly disappointed when she heard this, but she saw An Niang pouting slightly on the side, and she seemed to be a little unconvinced. couldn't help but move, and said to An Niang with a smile: "I think it's Mrs. Meng, you are too modest." Ling Ai is well-behaved, cute and generous and polite, and it is really commendable to stand out like this at such a young age. The people around her shouldn't be far behind! ”
Fang Mingzhu was about to say something more, but he heard An Niang speak: "Mrs. Han, what you said is very right!" My sister Abi is indeed not comparable to ordinary people. Even I sometimes, there are some things I don't understand, she can do them all! You see that these peach blossoms here in my mother were inserted by Sister Abi herself, how about it, isn't it beautiful? ”
An Niang said and stretched out her hand to point to the vase of flower arrangements on the high table by the window in Fang Mingzhu's house. Mrs. Han looked at her hand, and saw that the vase of peach blossoms looked like a few sparse and falling branches, like an inadvertent embellishment, but when she took a closer look, it seemed to be a well-designed painting, which was very pleasing to the eye. Moreover, those red hearts reflect the turquoise curtain, which complements each other even more.
Such a flower arrangement, where can an ordinary girl do it? Even if she was born in a scholarly family, she has been learning calligraphy with her since she was a child, and she often follows her to paint and arrange flowers, it seems that she can't have such a level. Without it, the origin and vision are there, and it is already very good for ordinary slaves and maids to be able to understand simple floral arrangements.
Mrs. Han was suspicious, and looked at Fang Mingzhu with a smile and said, "What a superb floral arrangement!" If you want to come to your house, you must be a teacher! I wonder if Mrs. Meng can introduce me? The little girl is about to catch up, but she is ashamed of the way of floral art, and she is not very proficient. I want to find a teacher who is proficient in floral art and practice my hands well. ”
Fang Mingzhu's face showed embarrassment, she knew that An Niang was a child's heart before, and she had always taken Zhou Qingyu very seriously. So she deliberately belittled Qingyu in front of Mrs. Han and made her very unhappy, and deliberately wanted to show Qingyu's goodness in front of everyone. But she is small and doesn't know what's at stake, so even if she blames her, she can't be blamed. At this moment, Mrs. Han's words undoubtedly made her a little difficult to ride a tiger.
If there is no teaching at home, then Qingyu's identity will become a mystery, which will inevitably attract more attention from Mrs. Han, and maybe Qingyu's identity will be exposed, and the revenge plan they discussed before will be in vain. If it is said that there is a teaching at home, but he is stingy and does not lend it to Mrs. Han, it will hurt the feelings of the two families. It's not a friendship with her, but a grudge.
"Our family didn't ask for advice, Sister Abi would have been. Grandmother said that Sister Abi had a good talent and was born to be good at these things. Her father was a well-known painter of flowers and birds. An Niang's words relieved Fang Mingzhu in time.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Mrs. Han: "Let Mrs. see you smile." Our family is really from a humble background, where can we invite good teaching? This girl is naughty, and I stay around every day to learn some rules. But today, she is still so bold. It's because I usually spoil her too much! ”
Mrs. Han couldn't help but be disappointed when she heard this. An Niang is a child, and it is not easy to lie when she speaks, and with Fang Mingzhu's upbringing, she should not let her child lie. She knew that there was such a thing as a gifted person in the world. Originally, I looked at the flower arrangement, and I thought that this illustrator must have been carefully trained. Now I heard that it was due to talent and family history, but it makes sense.
And if you think about it carefully, isn't the Meng family the origin of a poor scholar? With the humility of the Meng family, of course, it is impossible to invite anyone who is famous. Now that I heard that I can't even afford to teach, thinking about Fang Mingzhu's identity, it is indeed impossible to get much help from my mother's family. It seems that he is too eager to find the eldest lady of the Zhou family, and he is a little obsessed.
