Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Birthday Banquet
(Ask for recommendation, ask for collection)
Two days before the birthday banquet of the old lady of Yaofu, there was a heavy rain in Kunzhou Mansion, and the heavy rain miraculously stopped on the day of the birthday banquet of the old lady Yao.
The people in Kunzhou Mansion said that this was because the old lady was deeply blessed, so God wanted her to have a lively birthday.
When Laneige told Linglong about the rumor, Linglong just took her as a joke and passed away.
But the Duan family is different, the Li family and the Yao family are called the two big families of Kunzhou Mansion.
Mrs. Yao is good friends with her, but Mrs. Yao has a mother-in-law on her head, and although she does not have a mother-in-law on her head, there is an old lady in the long house who is more difficult than her mother-in-law.
It's just that the relationship between this old lady in the long house and this old lady Yao is very good.
When the Duan clan heard this rumor, they couldn't help but hate Old Madam Yao again and again.
The reason why the Duan family hates Old Madam Yao so much is because she doesn't look down on the Duan family at all, even if Mrs. Yao is friendly with her, she can't get into the eyes of Old Madam Yao.
What's more, Mrs. Yao also expressed her disdain for Duan in front of many noble ladies, which once made Duan's very embarrassed.
But she has a very good relationship with Mrs. Yao, because Mrs. Yao not only has a handle in her hands, but also in the past few years, she has used Li Fuzhi to do business with Mrs. Yao, and the two have long been tied together.
Yaofu is two streets away from Li's mansion and is also north of the city.
However, the style of the Yao Mansion is more lofty than that of the Li Mansion. With the elegance of the Yao Mansion, the decoration of the Li Mansion makes people feel like a nouveau riche.
There are a lot of people who come to congratulate Mrs. Yao on her birthday today. When the people from the Li Mansion arrived, there was a mother-in-law who was already waiting there, "You can be regarded as coming, but the old lady of my family is thinking too much, so she sent the old slave here early to wait." ”
Seeing the old lady of the long house getting down from the carriage, the woman hurriedly greeted her.
"Mama Zhao, I haven't seen you for a long time and your bones are still so strong." The old lady of the long room said with a smile, "I miss her too." ”
After speaking, he led Mo Shi and Linglong forward, "I am my two favorite daughters-in-law, and I brought them over to meet my old sister today." ”
According to the seniority of the Li Mansion and the Yao Mansion, the old lady of the Yao Mansion is one generation higher than the old lady of the Long House. But these two were good sisters when they were in the capital before, and they were sisters for many years, but they didn't expect to marry in Kunzhou Mansion, but they were a generation behind each other.
But in private, these two people have always been called sisters.
And the Duan family on the side had already waited impatiently there, and when he saw Linglong following the Mo family to salute Mama Zhao, he turned his head in disdain.
"It's not going to be done." Mama Zhao hurriedly cut over and accepted their half-salute, "The old slave greets the two young grandmothers." ”
When she saw Mrs. Yao, Linglong pulled Sister Mei to greet Mrs. Yao who was sitting on it in a proper manner.
After bowing three times on the futon, Linglong's voice was soft and crisp, "Meet the old lady, I wish the old lady a blessing like the East China Sea Shoubi Nanshan." ”
"This is General Lee's wife?" Old Madam Yao's voice was extremely peaceful, and there was a heart-warming power.
Linglong has traveled here, and has also seen several elderly old ladies, some of whom are similar to Duan's pretending style, and some of them are as sassy as the old ladies of the long house.
But I didn't expect that this old lady Yao would be so peaceful and friendly, no wonder she would get along with the old lady of the long house.
In his early years, I heard that General Li Zhuoran's wife was a weak woman who couldn't support the wall, and was controlled by the Duan family. Now after seeing me, Mrs. Yao shook her head, the rumors are really not credible.
The delicate smile in front of him is sweet, polite and courteous, neither humble nor arrogant. No matter how you look at it, she won't be a confused woman who doesn't ask about the world.
Old Madam Yao's senses for Linglong suddenly improved, and she and Mo Shi sat down in front of her cordially.
Old Madam Yao's calm words dispelled the tension in Linglong and Mo's hearts like a warm current, and chatted with Mrs. Yao with a smile for a while, and someone came to pay homage to her birthday, so Linglong and Mo blessed their bodies and went to the side.
The relationship between the Yao Mansion is much more complicated than that of the Li Mansion, Linglong followed the Mo family for a while, and then saw Yao Er's grandmother leading Yao Xinran in, and when she saw Sister Mei, Yao Xinran came over and blessed Linglong, "Auntie, I'll take her out to play."
Linglong looked at Sister Mei'er, and when she saw that she was also looking at herself with hope in her eyes, she nodded and asked Cuizhi to go with her.
"Look at these two little people, they are still so intimate when they meet all day long, as if they haven't seen each other for a long time." Yao Ershao's grandmother said with a smile, "I just went to the back to say something, and I was urged by her several times." ”
"Sister Ran has a cheerful personality and is very likable." Linglong looked at the back of the two leaving, "Sister Mei'er has changed a lot with her. I like that kid too. ”
The two sat there and exchanged parenting experiences for a while, and then a maid came over to tell Mrs. Yao that the theater was about to start, and invited them and their ladies to watch.
A large group of people went to the theater again.
Sitting here, Mrs. Yao has the highest position, and she is the master's family, so after ordering two new plays from the new row of the Ruyi class, she handed them to the old lady of the long room, "You can also take a look." ”
The old lady of the long house didn't be polite to her, and also ordered a play.
"Look at your mother-in-law," Mrs. Yao, who was sitting not far away, smiled lightly and whispered to Duan, "That's your daughter-in-law, I don't know it's her daughter-in-law." ”
"I mean, you, when did you become so kind?" Mrs. Yao continued, "This mother-in-law has a lot of means to knead her daughter-in-law, I don't believe you don't know?" will actually let the daughter-in-law jump over there. ”
"It's not like you." After she finished speaking, she patted Duan's hand with a black face.
"That's how fun it is." Duan lowered his head and took a sip of tea with a smile, "I just want them to see how capable my daughter-in-law is." I'm a stepmother-in-law, so it's not easy to be. ”
Although Duan said that he was still smiling at the end, he let outsiders look at him, and there was indescribable pain in his eyes.
"That's you." Mrs. Yao said with a smile, "The business of Caifeng Pavilion has been much better recently, thank you a lot." ”
"Look at what you said, mine isn't yours yet." Duan glanced at her with disgust, "Your mother-in-law is a powerful person, you have to be careful." ”
"Hmph, I've been raising the second daughter-in-law for the past few days, I'm strange, I've done something rebellious, and she just looks down on me." Mrs. Yao said that there was a flash of resentment in her eyes here, "Although the second child is not my own child, I have also taken good care of it in the past few years, and there is no credit and hard work." ”
Duan Shi smiled faintly when she heard this, this was the key to what she could talk to Mrs. Yao.
There's an eyesore in front.
