Chapter 32 Gossip always closes the distance
Mrs. Zhuang had just woken up from a nap, and her hair was only in a bun at the back of her head. There was only one older maid beside her, who looked like she was in her twenties, and quietly brought red dates and longan tea to Mrs. Zhuang and Xia Xiaodong, and then bowed and retreated.
The tea soup is steaming hot, and the round red dates are floating on it, which is very cute. Mrs. Zhuang blew at the red dates, and it rolled twice, before she put down the teacup and said with a smile: "The eldest girl is really a smart person." ”
Then he was slightly distracted and sighed slightly: "Yurong is in trouble." ”
For such a god jump, Xia Xiaodong quickly understood. If he is too good, in comparison, the light of his sister Yurong will of course be dimmed. Thinking about it further, if his marriage drags on for a long time, and the young and young are orderly, Yurong will not be able to marry for a while.
"I have counted all the teenagers who have come and gone." Mrs. Zhuang put down her sigh for Yurong and counted a few directly.
"The first one who was favored by many people was the son of Wenmao of the Zhang Governor's family. I heard you saw it today. Xia Xiaodong deliberately came over later, just to give time for Yurong to report to Mrs. Zhuang, and sure enough, Mrs. Zhuang already knew about today's situation.
"There is also the second eldest of the Liang guerrilla family, and the thirteenth lang of the deputy commander of Qin's family, who can also see it." Mrs. Zhuang took a sip of tea and frowned, "I originally thought that I could let you pick one of them." But now it seems that these people can't even get into your eyes. ”
Xia Xiaodong nodded.
"Mr. Mi is from the Mi family." Mrs. Zhuang has made another turn of God, and probably only Xia Xiaodong, who has a fast mind, can keep up.
Of course Mr. Mi is from the Mi family, what kind of nonsense is this?
"Is there anything special about the Mi family?" Xia Xiaodong felt that something was wrong.
"Teach the Mi family, specializing in teaching ladies." Mrs. Zhuang stretched out her left hand and counted on the other fingers with her thumb: "Her family has taught two queens and princesses, and there are several princes' princesses, and there is even a saying in the capital that 'no rice is not a concubine'." The Shang Palace next to the queen today is surnamed Mi. As for the ladies in the courtiers' families, there are countless who have studied under the Mi family. ”
It's quite a special family.
"So my advice is," Mrs. Zhuang looked serious, "I might as well get on better terms with Milan." If Milan is willing to say a few good words to you, not to mention that the children in Suzhou City are up to you, even if it is a higher noble family, it is possible. ”
Milan is naturally Mr. Mi's girlfriend name.
In fact, these words, as well as a lot of information about boudoir studies, should have been told to Xia Xiaodong before she went to the academy today. But Mrs. Zhuang not only didn't say anything, but obviously instructed Yurong not to mention it, but only dressed Xia Xiaodong up beautifully and sent it to the gate of the academy.
It is clear that I want to take this opportunity to see Xia Xiaodong's strain.
That's why Xia Xiaodong pointed out that Mrs. Zhuang did it on purpose.
But Xia Xiaodong didn't pay much attention to this. I had thought about these things before, and in fact, I could have taken the initiative to ask Mrs. Zhuang, but I didn't do it.
This is because, with his mental age, which is not a few years younger than Mrs. Zhuang, it is very easy to deal with such a scene. This little self-confidence, Xia Xiaodong still has.
What's more, if you don't show two brushes, who will look at you plainly?
Since Mrs. Zhuang has the heart to consider it, let's give her some goods.
If you see it clearly, you can cooperate in the future.
Yes, Xia Xiaodong positioned his relationship with Mrs. Zhuang as: cooperation.
Originally, he was ignorant, and even time and space were different, not to mention the famous halls such as motherly and daughterly filial piety. A hundred years of repairing in the same boat, I don't know how many years it will take to build a family. Since there is a fate to have a mother-daughter status, there is also a basis for cooperation.
"It turns out that Mr. Mi still has such a background." Xia Xiaodong reached out and grabbed the melon seeds on the plate on the table, but he didn't expect Mrs. Zhuang to have this hobby.
"And what kind of students does she like?" It's a question of whether or not to put some effort into what he likes.
Mrs. Zhuang also grabbed a handful of melon seeds, only to see that the fingers were the same color, and the melon seeds and the shell flew together, hehe, the kung fu of eating melon seeds was really first-class.
Mrs. Zhuang motioned to Xia Xiaodong to throw the melon seed shell directly on the ground: "It's good to be at your own home." The most powerful thing about the Mi family is that all kinds of students can teach. Milan has been in Suzhou for almost a year, and I haven't seen her like anything in particular. ”
"Milan is ...... in Mi's house" Xia Xiaodong couldn't find the right word for a while.
The same water feeds a hundred kinds of people. Although the Mi family is engaged in a special industry, it is impossible for everyone to be a super-excellent teacher.
Mrs. Zhuang understood Xia Xiaodong's half-cut words, she pursed her lips, held the remaining few melon seeds in the palm of her hand, leaned over slightly, and leaned her head closer: "I heard that before Milan and Li, he was always in the palace of Prince Min in the capital. ”
It's comfortable to talk to smart people.
and off. Prince Min.
It can be seen that Milan is a person of material, not a mediocre person.
"Who did Mr. Mi marry before?"
"Zhuang Tianshu."
“……”
"It's Zhuang Bogui's grandson."
“……”
"Zhuang Bogui is a scholar of Wuyingdian University, and now he is the second assistant."
"Oh-" Xia Xiaodong probably understood. Although Zhuang Ge Lao probably has a lot of grandchildren, as Milan, he can find the grandson of the second assistant to be his husband, and he can be regarded as a high marriage.
"Zhuang Tianshu is known for his beauty, and I heard that he had something to do with Prince Min's granddaughter, and Milan couldn't hold it on his face, so he invited himself to leave the court and simply left the capital."
Speaking of secrets, Mrs. Zhuang, like most women, had sparkling eyes and a low voice, with a certain pride in knowing the exclusive inside story.
Xia Xiaodong automatically made up the drama of 'visiting his wife and meeting a beautiful woman in the prince's mansion, and a beautiful man is greedy and loses his beauty', but whenever a man wants to hug left and right, he must be prepared to fight chickens and eggs.
Mrs. Zhuang also said a few rumored incidents in Suzhou, lest Xia Xiaodong accidentally break the taboo when he turned around and saw people talking.
Seeing that the melon seed plate had bottomed out, Mrs. Zhuang stood up quickly, took out a broom from somewhere, and swept the melon seed shells on the ground into a pile three times and two times, obviously she was used to it, and Xia Xiaodong didn't have time to help.
"I'm not old." Mrs. Zhuang saw that Xia Xiaodong was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Everyone has hands and feet, and our family is like this." I don't need to talk about these false courtesies here. When you go back to your own house, you have to do things yourself. ”
"Hmm." Xia Xiaodong nodded in agreement, and then said after consideration: "I heard someone say that our family ...... Uh, kind of ......."
"Poor?" Mrs. Zhuang picked up the back for her: "I know this." Ignore them! Each family lives behind closed doors, and they love it. Who's still biting me? Do you have to be like them, surrounded by a bunch of old mothers and little maids, even someone has to hold a handkerchief, and you have to have eight plates and nine bowls to eat, you are rich? ”
What a tough stepmother.
