Chapter 105: Meet the General's Wife
He Heng took Yuehua to see the old lady while Mu Xiu, the two went out early in the morning, but they were not in a hurry to rush over, one rented a horse, and on the way, He Heng ran to the destination while teaching Yuehua to ride a horse. Yuehua already knows how to trot on a horse, and the two of them are chasing me on the road, and they have a lot of fun.
Yuehua felt that she had a talent for riding horses, and she only learned it a few times before she got up and rode decently, and she was very proud: "Look how well I ride!" ”
He Heng didn't speak, only glanced at Yuehua mockingly, as if to say: "It's proud to practice so poorly!" ’
Yuehua glared at him, He Heng suddenly let go of the reins, stood on the horse's back, the horse was frightened, raised his front hooves and was about to throw He Heng down, but He Heng seemed to know, bent his legs, stabilized his body, held the reins, and jumped on the horse again: "You practice like this." ”
"......" Yuehua pursed her mouth: "Don't you just want to show off how well you ride, you are good at riding!" ”
"Well, thanks for the compliment!" He Heng pursed his lips and nodded with a smile.
"Shameless ......"
is in his twenties, and his playfulness is still so heavy, Yuehua turned his head and ignored him, and the two continued to hurry.
The two walked to the General's Mansion, or the last time the little guy, he recognized Yuehua, and he was a clever one, so he rushed forward to lead the horse: "It's time to call you Mrs. He, Mrs. He, you have a good time." ”
"Thanks to you!" Yuehua handed him the reins, and he took them very respectfully.
Yuehua came back for the second time this time, and went directly to see the old lady, the old lady was in the main room, and there were a few wives in the house, Yuehua didn't recognize it, the old lady sat upright, her face was solemn, her expression was compassionate, and she was like a bodhisattva, amiable and respectable.
Yuehua hurriedly smiled and said, "The junior has given you a gift." ”
"No need to be polite, let the girl show you tea, you girl...... I should change my name to Mrs. He, and it's true, I won't invite you to come, it's better for you not to come to the door! ”
When Yuehua came back to see the old lady, the old lady was still dressed as a peasant woman, this time she was wearing a sauce-red dark gold striped gown and a dark thin pleated skirt, wearing a red gold forehead on her head, and a golden phoenix tassel hairpin on her sideburns.
Yuehua found that this old lady was really like a chameleon, when she first saw her, she wore a cloth shirt like a peasant woman, and even her speech and style were kind and honest, and she was dressed formally this time, and immediately became luxurious and elegant, although she still spoke kindly and lovely, but after changing her clothes, she immediately became noble and generous when she changed her eyes, and her image was very different from the last time she met.
Yuehua is a person who has been in the palace for a long time, this kind of clothes to wear on what occasion, what attitude to people, the kind of people who are always on the shelf, most of them are palace people or low-level concubines with some faces, and they pretend to be like twenty-five or eighty-thousand, for fear that others will not know that they have a bit of a powerful position, and the real superior is the kind of person who can sit in the bedroom in coarse old clothes and drink tea, and can also wear court clothes to accept everyone's worship, such people are the people on the spire.
There was a lady in her forties sitting on a chair on the left side of the room, a lady in her thirties sitting on the chair on the right, and the old lady was not seated on the opposite side, these two people looked dressed and looked like they were official wives, but the grade was not high, Yuehua thought about it, and sat next to the lady in her forties, and the little girl came in to see the tea.
Yuehua saw that the old lady nodded almost invisibly, obviously very satisfied: "Let me introduce you, the one on the left is the wife of Zeng Duwei, the Liu family, and the lady on the right is the wife of the new commander Hong, Du Shi, your husbands are all in the army, you should also love each other." ”
Yuehua hurriedly stood up and saluted Liu, and Liu immediately helped him up: "Oops! Girl, hurry up. Saying that, he quickly pulled Yuehua up, grabbed Yuehua's hand, and looked up and down: "It's really tender like shallots, it's rare to have this bearing, and this look is blessed." ”
Yuehua smiled: "Thank you for your praise." "This lady is a very shrewd one at first glance.
Yuehua walked over there to see Du Shi, Du Shi just stood up, nodded slightly, said hello, and looked quite cold, as if he didn't buy Yuehua very much.
Yuehua likes to talk to He Heng about some military things when he is at home, knowing that this Zeng Qingdian is a person who has studied hard in vain, is upright, and has not been liked by the peak, people do not like officialdom in middle age, but now they are obsessed with painting, and it doesn't matter if the power is hollowed out, but his wife is a shrewd person, a leader inside and outside, and has a good relationship with the ladies at the border, if it weren't for his wife, it is estimated that Zeng Qingdian was a seven-grade official twenty years ago, and now he is still a seven-grade official.
This six-rank commander Hong Sheng is a bit special, he was born in a family, he is the root of the Hong family of the Jingcheng Wang family, and He Heng is also an old acquaintance, but the relationship between the two is ordinary, although the two have arrived at the border one after the other, and they have no intersection with each other.
This commander Hong has failed in the exam for many years, and he is very arrogant, refusing to accept the donation of the head of the family, and also learning from others' pen and follow.
However, Mrs. Hong San is such a son, and she really can't go to the battlefield, she can't resist her son, so she gave him a seven-grade co-leader, and he still looks at the flowers on weekdays, he went to the battlefield once, his arm was injured, and he felt that he was terrible, so he never went to the battlefield again, and he didn't usually take care of things.
This Mrs. Hong's Du family is also from Jingcheng's family, and the Hong family is a family, and when she arrives at the border, she feels that she is from an extraordinary background, and she only nests in her own house every day, and she doesn't go out and walk around much, and the Hong family seems to go to the border to play.
Three women in one play, not to mention four people, Yuehua is the youngest and basically doesn't speak, and the old lady doesn't talk much, and there are almost only Du and Liu in a main room singing rival plays.
Ning Chengsi wants to be transferred, and may even be convicted, this Zeng wife Liu thinks that her husband Zeng Qingdian has been a daughter-in-law for many years, and wants to vent all the grievances for many years, this time she will only expose the shortcomings of Mrs. Ding and Ning Chengsi in front of the old lady: "It's a pity that Mrs. Ding didn't come, the last time I met her at the Hong family, she wore a bead on her head." Coincidentally, this time Lieutenant Ning Du was found out to have delayed the payment of military salaries, and you guys here can talk about it, this is not a coincidence! After speaking, he turned his head to Yuehua and smiled: "I said sister, I guess you haven't seen it, next time I'll take you to take a look, I guess you haven't seen such a big bead!" ”
Yuehua glanced at Liu coldly, she was deliberately stepping on herself while stepping on Mrs. Ding, Yuehua smiled and didn't speak.
Du Shi, who was sitting opposite, was about to befriend Mrs. Ding, and Mrs. Ding hurriedly defended herself and didn't forget to show off that she was from Jingcheng: "What are the beads!" I've also seen the one she wears, I have a clip for such a bead, you don't have it!? That's it, I'll give you a piece of inlaid jewelry to wear, what can this matter of deferred military pay have to do with jewelry, how much silver is this jewelry! ”
Liu glanced at Du Shi and didn't speak.
……
The old lady kept smiling and watching the two of them pinching each other, and then she shouted Yuehua: "Girl!" There were still some times when the meal was opened, and it was strange to sit. ”
Yuehua figured out what the old lady meant, the old lady didn't want to care about this matter, and she didn't want to give the Liu family a step in public, so she had to borrow Yuehua's mouth, Yuehua pretended not to understand: "I don't understand what you guys talk about, it's not our business, let's talk about our own business is serious, the old lady also said that she wants to play finch cards before, just four people get together a table of cards!" ”
"Last time, I played two games with you and lost two games, and I won't let you go today." The old lady laughed.
The two ladies couldn't say anything, and the girls rushed into the table. (To be continued.) )
