About half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the imposing and tall Ningguo Mansion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After a few people got out of the carriage, a mother-in-law greeted them, and the princess was determined to return to the house, and the Ningguo Mansion also gave enough face and walked in from the main gate in a bright way.
After entering the door, Shao Xunmei looked at the buildings in the mansion, looked at the grass and trees, and suddenly felt that the majesty of the Guogong Mansion for a hundred years came to her face, and it really deserved to be one of the meritorious families of the three major Guogong mansions since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty.
And so it was!
Shao Xunmei looked at it at a glance, and only felt that the courtyard of this Guogong Mansion was deep, and the feeling was very depressing to her, and even she was inexplicably afraid in her mind, and her footsteps almost retreated with the consciousness in her mind, in short, the feeling of rejection was full.
This feeling came again, very similar to the feeling of despair and resentment in her mind when she first walked through, so that kind of consciousness just now should also be a remnant or instinctive reflection of the original owner?
And she directly suppressed the consciousness in her mind, where would she take a step back? Then a cyan sedan chair was already placed in front of the two of them, and one of the old grandmothers held a handkerchief, dressed a little more blessed than ordinary old ladies, and said to Shao Xunmei and Li Tingye: "It's not too early, the old lady and the wife have been waiting for a long time, the princess will get on the sedan chair." ā
This woman spoke in a low voice, obviously a person of great status, and said that the two of them were late, so the old lady waited too long. Shao Xunmei didn't say anything, she just got into the sedan chair by herself, and Li Tingye didn't chirp like before, and also got into the sedan chair.
The sedan chair was quickly lifted up by the four rough envoys, the sedan chair was very stable, as if walking on the ground, there was no trace of bumps at all, after a stick of incense, there was a mother-in-law outside and said: "It's on the ground, please get off the sedan chair of the princess." ā
After the two came down, they found that they were in front of a gate, and the tall courtyard plaque was written with the three words Jinruitang, square, red gate, white wall, cyan tile eaves, giving people the same feeling as this mansion and this courtyard, luxurious, low-key, majestic and full of rules, the same, full of depression.
And from the moment she entered the door, Shao Xunmei seemed to have deeply realized the depth of the courtyard of this ancient high-ranking family, and the feeling that the ancient rules were as big as the sky made her feel very deeply in this Ningguo Mansion.
I really don't know how the original owner lived here for fifteen years, if it were her, it would be enough for about one day!
And Shao Xunmei intuitively took a look at the outfit on her body, the upper body was darkly red and color-woven Ruyi Tuan flower cross-collared narrow-sleeved shirt, the front of the neckline was embroidered with gold and silver intertwined lace, and the bottom was embroidered with folded flowers of the same color, which looked noble and solemn, and the small bun of the comb was more pretty, and the eight-tailed phoenix hairpin interspersed with it just right suppressed this simple playfulness, a little more elegant and dignified.
This dress should not be outstanding. And she herself is not a person who likes to dress up. So, I picked out clothes and jewelry of this color, and Perrin thought that her dress was too old-fashioned, so she put a bun on her hair that looked young and lively.
Just now, the mother-in-law bowed slightly and urged again: "The princess, please come in, the old lady and the lady should be in a hurry." ā
Shao Xunmei raised her feet slightly, took a step forward, and then entered the threshold, facing the shadow wall, below is a pot of lotus flowers, the lotus leaves have just pulled out the leaves, green and green, and then in front of the semi-circular arch moon gate. After the two went in, a girl came over and led the two in.
After passing through the winding corridor, carved railings and jade bricks, and then arrived at the gate of the eight yin and yang reliefs, and the girl shouted respectfully towards the door: "The princess is back." ā
And a crisp voice inside replied, "Got it, go down." ā
After the girl who led the way retreated, the person who spoke also opened the door and bowed his body to greet him: "The princess, please come in." ā
Shao Xunmei entered the door as if she didn't have a brain at this time, and then the door was locked up again after the two came in, and a burst of calm aroma came to her face, Shao Xunmei followed the aroma and looked, a gilded bronze beast was sitting peacefully on the big desk next to a wall spitting smoke, and the beauty vase in the corner of the wall was still inserted with the flowers picked this morning, it seemed to be with dewdrops, and the opposite wall was a magnificent mural of mountains and rivers, magnificent, and this hall, this courtyard, It is the courtyard of the highest-ranking old lady in the palace.
And on the couch was sitting an old lady in a rich brocade dress, who was the old lady Wang who was in the palace that day.
And the first seat on the left below sits a lady in her forties, dressed dignified and majestic, elegant and majestic, and well-maintained, and this is obviously her mother-in-law Liu, now the wife of Ning Guogong, because this kind of all-round style is really not something that can be raised in an ordinary door, and Shao Xunmei has seen the appearance of a real wealthy lady, which is a real atmosphere and dignified, and it is a little more noble and elegant than the wealthy ladies she has seen now.
The first seat on the right was empty, and there were two women who were about the same age as the Liu family sitting below, and when everyone saw the two coming, they got up first to say hello to Shao Xunmei: "Say hello to the princess!" ā
There are kings first and then ministers, the courtesy of kings and ministers cannot be abolished, and they cannot be reversed, except for the old lady above who closed her eyes and woke up, they all gave Shao Xunmei a greeting. After all, the old lady Wang is a super-first-grade lady, and she is taller than Shao Xunmei, so she doesn't need to be courteous.
Shao Xunmei suppressed the irritability and depression that was about to rise in her heart, and smiled: "Get up." ā
Immediately, Shao Xunmei asked the old lady Wang and Liu again: "Hello to my grandmother and mother, I am late, please forgive me." ā
The old lady on the couch still didn't open her eyes, let alone any reaction, but Liu Shi spoke, with a smile: "Get up and sit down." ā
Shao Xunmei sat down in the first seat on the right, and Li Tingye also sat on the chair, and soon a girl had a fragrant tea.
It was Liu Shi who spoke first, his voice was neither slow nor slow, slow and logical, elegant and beautiful: "Then, please tell the princess, why is the princess late?" You know, your grandmother got up early and ordered someone to dust and sweep the yard, waiting for your arrival! ā
Although the voice is still so calm, it carries a hint of accusation: Let the old man wait for you, that is a big unfilial piety!
