"Then thank you for your unconcealed sharing and guidance during this time!" Peng Jin sincerely thanked. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

From the Shangsi Festival on the third day of the first month of March to the tenth day of the first month of June, for more than three months, Peng Jin took Nuan Nuan and Liu Zhan and Liu Che to attend most of the gatherings attended by Chen, and many of them were strongly invited by Chen, and the four of them were taken care of by Chen.

"If I want to say thank you, I also want to thank you for your guidance, which makes me stand out every time and the audience pays attention." Chen covered his lips and smiled, "I don't know what kind of scenery you have seen, Sister Peng, and you will have such a unique ingenuity." ”

"Where is it as good as you say!" Peng Jin said humbly, "It's just some foreign customs and habits, which are rarely seen in the capital, and the picture is fresh for a while, but it can't compare to your real kung fu, sister!" ”

"Alright, you two won't flatter each other anymore." Wang Jia said with a smile on the side, "I can't listen to what I say anymore." ”

Because Peng Jin and Wang Jia both have the idea of befriending each other, coupled with the Chen family on the side, the three of them have faintly formed their own social circle, which can be regarded as the most ironclad circle of girlfriends after Peng Jin returned to Beijing.

After Wang Jia said that, the three of them couldn't help laughing.

"However, the most surprising thing is not the three children of Sister Chun, Brother Zhan and Brother Che, but Lady Josephine and her children." Wang Jia pointed to Mrs. Josephine, mother and son, who were smiling and calmly laughing with the guests not far away, with a look full of surprise and appreciation.

Chen couldn't help but nod his head and agreed: "It's not! It is said that the people of Fanbang are barbarians who do not know etiquette, and now it seems that this is all caused by prejudice, precisely because we sit in the well and watch the sky, and do not have a wide range of knowledge. Look at Lady Josephine and her three children, they speak elegantly and better than some natives of Beijing! ”

That's not it!

Not to mention far away, just talking about the female dependents of the Liu Mansion in Sancai Lane, they are much worse than Mrs. Josephine and the three sisters and brothers of Kate, John and Elizabeth.

As she was talking, suddenly Mother Liu hurriedly ran over, approached Peng Jin, and reported in a low voice: "The second aunt and grandmother of the Wuwei Hou Mansion are here with a pair of brothers!" ”

"What!" Peng Jin was startled, stood up from his seat, didn't have time to ask the reason for the situation, hurriedly said to Chen and Wang Jia, "I'll go take a look first", and hurriedly raised his feet and ran out.

Peng Jin is clear about Liu Hui's obsession with Lin Yun, and now if Liu Hui meets Wang Jia, I am afraid that it will cause a disaster.

It doesn't matter if she ruins a lotus appreciation party, what she is afraid of is that this lotus appreciation will become a laughing stock in the circle of powerful people in the capital, affecting future communication.

So she must stabilize Liu Hui's time bomb before Liu Hui and Wang Jia meet.

Peng Jin and Liu's mother walked all the way, and before they reached the second gate, they looked up and saw Liu Hui coming to meet them, and before they could say hello, they heard Liu Hui complain half-truthfully: "The third sister-in-law opened a lotus appreciation party, and she didn't know about me, so I can join in the fun!" ”

Peng Jin secretly sneered in her heart, even if she didn't invite her, Liu Hui didn't come by herself now, and she also brought Feng Cheng and Feng Ji's two children.

"After the second sister married into the Marquis of Wuwei's mansion, she was so busy with general affairs that in the past six or seven years, we have returned to Beijing twice, and each time we have not had the opportunity to meet. It's not that I'm embarrassed to disturb the second sister, and I'm afraid that such a small reward will not be able to enter the eyes of the second sister, so I didn't send someone to hand over the post! Peng Jin also half-truthfully replied.

Liu Hui has repeatedly played some tricks with them of "employing people before and not after others", and now the wicked people have sued first, she can't suffer this dumb loss.

Liu Hui's smile suddenly stiffened slightly.

After Liu Zhihonghe County magistrate's term expired, he led his family back to the capital to report on his work.

At that time, the Marquis of Wuwei Mansion was in the limelight, Feng Zheng was accumulating miraculous achievements, and he was promoted one after another, and Liu Zhi was not in her eyes as a small magistrate.

In addition, she has always thought that the failure of her marriage with Lin Yun is Liu Shi's main responsibility, and she has resentment, so she disdains and does not want to have anything to do with Sanfang.

And this time, Liu Zhi returned to Beijing from the prefect of Quanzhou to report on his work, and he was glorious, and under the condition that all the nobles were suppressed, he became the first earl of Emperor Taixi's entitlement - Ning Anbo, which was unmatched for a while.

However, the Wuwei Marquis Mansion has long since regained its prosperity, and the internal power and profit struggle is continuous, which makes her a little concubine and daughter-in-law feel pressure.

And Feng Zheng was also transferred back to the capital by Emperor Taixi from the frontier scene, and served in an idle position in the military department, and his future is not yet known.

Therefore, she was anxious for a while, wanting to repair the relationship with the three rooms, hoping that Liu Shi could help them, so that Feng Zheng could return to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, or obtain real power, and also help their family win the struggle within the Wuwei Hou Mansion.

Then such a low-voiced flattery just violated Feng Zheng's pride and dignity as a general, so Feng Zheng simply detained her at home and did not allow her to hold on to the three-room family anymore.

This time, she also heard the news of Peng Jin's opening of a lotus appreciation party, and she was anxious, so she finally got the opportunity, took a vacancy, and rushed over with her two children.

Liu Hui paused, and then stepped forward to hold Peng Jin's arm as if he had not left the cabinet, and said coquettishly: "Look at what the third sister-in-law said, I am about to lose my self-esteem!" I am just a small concubine and daughter-in-law in the Wuwei Hou Mansion, and I am not in charge of the feed, where is I so busy. To say that he is busy, he is just busy making rules. ”

In the end, there was a faint tone of loss and complaint, like a child coquettishly letting her elders make decisions for her.

Peng Jin smiled and didn't fall into the trap: "Establishing rules is also the meaning of loving you." Look at me, after marrying into the Liu family for so many years, my mother rarely asked me to set rules in front of me, so that after so many years, I could only run a small lotus appreciation party. ”

You know best what you did to me before, but now you want me to stand up for you and uphold justice, it's a fool's dream!

Liu Hui has always been smart, so he understood Peng Jin's subtext at once, and he was ashamed and angry in his heart, but when he thought of the current status of the Sanfang family, he had to endure it, trying to maintain the smile on his face and the coquettishness in his tone, and said: "Look at what the third sister-in-law said, I imagine that you are like you, you don't need to go to the elders every day to set up rules, and you can live freely in a small family!" ”

The Wuwei Hou Mansion has always been inseparable, and no matter where the concubines live, the purpose is to prevent the battlefield from being ruthless, the branches of the family from falling, and the family from continuing to multiply and prosper.

When Liu Hui said this, he was inevitably suspected of unfilial piety.
