Chapter 10: Mutual Irony

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was close to noon, and as soon as she arrived at the gate, a girl rushed up to greet her and said to Yun'er.

"Sister Yun'er, you're finally back."

Then he looked among the others.

"May I ask who is the girl of Ruoshui?"

Ruoshui stood up puzzled and asked.

"I am, what's wrong?"

The little girl looked Ruoshui up and down, and then smiled.

"Mrs. Qian said, let Miss Ruoshui come back and hurry to the main hall."

"Oh~"

Ruoshui replied, turned to the other people, and said.

"Then I'll go for a while."

"Well, sister, go quickly, don't let the old lady wait." Xiao Qian waved her hand and signaled her to hurry up, Ruoshui smiled slightly, and followed the girl who reported it.

"Hehe, the old lady just likes Sister Ruoshui, and she won't get used to it after leaving for a while."

Listening to Xiao Qian's words, Zilan had a smile on her face, but her smile was a little stiff, when and what happened to the old lady, she only thought about a warm Ruoshui, she was not bad, why didn't she get the attention of the old lady?

On the side, Yun'er saw Zilan's expression in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a meaningful smile.

Here in the main hall, as soon as Ruoshui arrived at the door, she felt countless blazing eyes sweeping towards her, and she couldn't help but raise her eyes slightly, and the situation in front of her made her a little stunned.

I saw the old lady sitting on the top with an elegant woman, and there were more than a dozen noble ladies in gorgeous clothes sitting below, dozens of eyes staring at her naked, feeling like looking at a strange thing, Ruoshui suddenly felt very uncomfortable, presumably these noble ladies all knew that the old lady was a guest in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they rushed to stutter it, hehe, this news is quite well-informed.

Although she was very reluctant to walk in, but the old lady's order could not be violated, Ruoshui sighed helplessly, pretending not to see those embarrassing eyes, bowed her head, lowered her eyes, folded her hands with her lower abdomen, stepped on small steps and slowly walked in, and bowed slightly to the head.

"Ruoshui greets the old lady."

"Hehehehe, good," the old lady smiled and made a gesture to Ruoshui to get up, and then pointed to the woman beside her and said to the dozen or so noble ladies below.

"Ruoshui, come, I've seen Mrs. Qin and all the ladies."

"Yes"

"Ruoshui has seen Mrs. Qin, and I have seen all the ladies."

After the salute, Ruoshui faced upwards and stood up straight without saying a word, waiting for the old lady to speak.

"Lift your head up."

Mrs. Qin's voice came from her ears, Ruoshui slowly raised her head, looked at her at eye level, and then lowered her eyelids again, pursed her lips a little shyly, and only saw that Mrs. Qin nodded again and again.

"Hmm~ is a good girl, dignified and demure, generous and decent, and indeed has a virtuous demeanor."

"Isn't it, looking at this look, this temperament, and this etiquette, she is worthy of being the first lady in Yunzhou."

"Yes, yes, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Yun can say yes."

As soon as the woman called Mrs. Yun finished speaking, she attracted a chorus, and then looked at the old lady, her old man was proudly raising her chin, Ruoshui felt speechless, but she also pretended to be embarrassed and said.

"Thank you ladies for your praise, if you are ashamed, it is really the old lady who teaches well."

Ruoshui's words made everyone nod for a while, this girl is not arrogant or impatient, and she knows how to ingratiate people skillfully, she is indeed smart.

"Hehe, good, good" The old lady said three times in a row, and a smile bloomed on her face.

"You girl, you can speak, today, but why is Mrs. Yu of the first family of Cangyue Kingdom personally named to see you."

Lady Jade? Isn't that the mother of the first thousand Jin Yuqian, unlucky, who just offended her daughter and met her mother.

Ruoshui followed the direction of the old lady's finger and turned sideways, and hurriedly saluted.

"If the water is stupid, let the lady laugh."

Secretly squinted, this lady looks extravagant and good-looking, but her expression is too arrogant, her temperament is too cold, and her eyes are shining with a calculating essence.

Mrs. Yu couldn't see the emotion, and pulled out a faint smile.

"Hehe, I have long heard that Miss Ruoshui is a model of women's virtue, and today I have seen it, and she is really knowledgeable and good-looking, even if she is a trained palace maid in the palace, she may not have such a cultivation, she is really the first person among the girls."

As soon as these words came out, the smiles on the faces of all the ladies suddenly became embarrassed, and the old lady pursed her lips, and she did not hide her displeasure.

Ruoshui listened depressed, this mother and daughter, even praised her the same words, one respected her as the best among the girls, one regarded her as the first person among the girls, and never forgot to remind her that she was a girl, if she didn't return the salute, would it seem that she was not very polite, in order to show her first lady's virtue, Ruoshui suddenly lowered her head, a frightened face.

"Madame's words frightened Ruoshui, I heard that Madame used to be a miscellaneous girl, and then Tong Guò worked hard to become a concubine of the first family, and finally became a mistress, such a successful achievement, can be regarded as the first person among the girls, Ruoshui really dare not be."

After speaking, the corners of her mouth showed an inappropriate smile, these, she knew it when she was young, she didn't want to expose her old bottom, this woman, what sarcastic is she not good at taking this, it's really a few days of good life and even forgot about it?

"Poof"

Mrs. Yun almost squirted out the tea she drank in her mouth, her face was a smile that she couldn't hide, and the other ladies were also flushed, and it could be seen from everyone's expressions that this Mrs. Mo usually offended people.

The strange thing is that even Mrs. Qin's expression is a little strange, and she seems to be holding back a smile, isn't this Mrs. Yu her future mother-in-law? It's strange how she could look like she's gloating.

Not to mention the old lady, from the moment her words fell, her old man's face turned from cloudy to sunny, and she was leisurely playing with the Buddha beads in her hand.

Of course, the most angry is Mrs. Yu, the past that she doesn't want to recall was suddenly mentioned, her face couldn't help but be blue and white for a while, like a palette, very exciting, seeing Ruoshui's innocent face just wanted to get angry, but she couldn't find a reason to send it, who called this her own first, and said that this was a glorious thing.

Suppress the anger that wants to burst out of your throat, and I don't know how to refute it for a while.

"Ahem"

Mrs. Qin coughed dryly twice, broke the embarrassment, and said with a straight face.

"Okay, it's rare for everyone to get together, so let's stop saying so many polite words, let's do something meaningful."

Mrs. Qin classified the conversation they had just now as a polite remark, which could be regarded as a step, and the old lady smiled and pointed to Ruoshuidao.

"Mrs. Qin is right, Ruoshui, since so many ladies are here today, why don't you play the qin."

Mrs. Yun also hurriedly agreed.

"Yes, I almost forgot, Ruoshui Girl's piano skills are the best in the world, and it is really an honor to hear it with my own ears today."

After speaking, Mrs. Yu, who was still angry, said with a smile.

"I don't know who is more prosperous than our first thousand?"

After speaking, all the ladies also cast their expectant eyes, the sound of Yuqian's piano is difficult for people to match, they have heard it, so they want to see the legendary world.

Seeing that Mrs. Yun compared her daughter to a girl, Mrs. Yu's face was even more unkind, and she raised her eyebrows and said with a sarcastic smile.

"Then let's ask Miss Ruoshui to perform a song." She didn't believe that this sharp-toothed girl could compare to her daughter.

The corners of Ruoshui's mouth twitched slightly.

"If the water is not as good as Miss Yu, there is only ugliness."

In this situation, is there any room for her to refuse? Aiming at Mrs. Yu's angry and sarcastic eyes, Ruoshui was really helpless, how could she see who was annoying when she went to Rongcheng this time, and besides, this Mrs. Yun didn't look like a worry-free person.
