Chapter 81: A Small Banquet in the Flower Hall

Huiya's depressed mood didn't last long, because after returning to Yefu, she began to get busy.

Mrs. Lian received two flower notes, which were sent by Mr. Lian's comrade Vice General Hu and Vice General Qu's wife, saying that they were going to visit the door. If you say it's a visit, you can't afford not to leave a meal, right? In fact, it is a small banquet.

And even Mrs. Lian's belly is now a month old, and Huiya naturally can't let her work too hard, so all the matters that are included in the banquet fall on Huiya's head properly, so that she doesn't have time to feel sorry for herself.

When Hui Ya took the flower note from Mrs. Lian's hand, she was attracted by the flower note. But what attracts Huiya is not the rich color or fragrance of the flower paper, but its rough preparation.

In her previous life, when she came into contact with flower paper and started to make her own flower paper, she was already sixteen or seventeen years old according to her age, and now she is only eleven years old, that is, at least five years later. Five years later, the flower note, both in texture and aroma, has been greatly improved, and it is not known how many times stronger than the rough version in Huiya's hand.

"If you can open a shop specializing in flower paper, maybe it will also be a good business." Hui Ya secretly thought in her heart, in her previous life, why was her stepmother able to eat all the rampant in Zhao Mansion, not because she not only pinched her mother's dowry shop in her hands, but also took over the economic power in the mansion?

Although the Zhao family is an emerging family of military generals, the background is not enough, especially the family wealth, a large family only relies on their grandfather and uncle, where can they live, and they still have to rely on management? The mother's original ten-mile red makeup was a large amount of chewing that could support people.

It's just that in the previous life, because she missed her poor health, she handed over the dowry to her aunt to take care of, and she was mothed to the point that she was only an empty shell, and in the end, even her home was robbed.

Thinking of her aunt and her sweet-hearted stepmother, Huiya couldn't help but feel depressed, she must return to the Zhao family, she must make good money, and she must have the right to speak only if she has money in her pocket, she must drive out the poisonous woman.

Gathering her mind, looking at Mrs. Lian, who was a little sleepy in front of her, Huiya's heart was full of tenderness again. In this life, I am undoubtedly lucky, even if I can't return to the Zhao Mansion smoothly now, but I am now the cousin of the deputy general's family, and the great-grandson of the Dingguo Mansion is like a sister.

With such an identity, he will return to the Zhao Mansion sooner or later, but the most important thing now is not the father and mother who went to the south to play, but Mrs. Lian, who is pregnant with Liujia and is obviously a little powerless.

"Aunt Cui, do you want to use flower paper? I made some when I had nothing to do, and I just needed to use them! Hui Ya saw that Mrs. Lian did not have a flower note in her hand, and it was not good to reply to the post on white paper, so she took the initiative to take the bamboo pattern flower paper she made a few days ago.

Huiya's self-made flower note made Mrs. Lian's eyes light up, and after praising her for a few words, she copied the reply she was going to write on the flower note, sent someone to send it back, and agreed to let Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Qu visit her three days later.

When the time is set, the matter of this banquet will be opened, from the place of the banquet to the playthings and utensils, to a coaster and a pair of chopsticks, which are all exquisite.

Huiya knows that the big families are particular about these things, but they don't understand what it is, firstly, they had a bad reputation in their previous lives, so they had no chance to participate in such a banquet, and secondly, although the status of the Zhao family seems to be not low, it is really not enough to see among the magnates in the capital, and the background is not enough, so there is not so much attention.

Huiya doesn't understand these things, even Mrs. Lian has no experience in management, isn't there still Mrs. Ye? Although she is only the wife of a wealthy merchant in Huxi, Mrs. Ye is also a noble lady who has been taught by a century-old family. So even if the rules of the business are different from the official family, they will not lose too much.

So there was Mrs. Ye's guidance, Hui Ya followed up, and Mrs. Lian watched the lively situation from the side.

Three days passed in a flash, and when she got up in the morning, Huiya's heart was worried. In her previous life and present life, this was the first time she had personally organized a banquet, although there were only two guests, although it was only held in the small flower hall of Ye Mansion, but the other party was the wife of the deputy general, even if she was in Zhao Mansion in her previous life, she was considered a medium guest.

"Don't be afraid, General Hu and General Qu have a lifelong friendship with our master, and the correspondence between the ladies is just to make this relationship closer, and the two ladies will not embarrass you." Mrs. Lian looked at Hui Ya's nervous appearance of wringing her handkerchief, and persuaded with a smile.

"Okay." Hui Ya took a deep breath, held Mrs. Lian's hand and stood at the door of the flower hall, and replied with a smile. At this time, the subordinates outside had already led the two ladies to the flower hall, but they did not let Mrs. Lian wait longer.

"Sister Cui'er, your body is very heavy, why are you still standing at the door waiting for us, let's go in together!" Mrs. Hu, who was a little older, said quickly, and hurriedly held Mrs. Lian's hand.

Hui Ya and Mrs. Hu helped Mrs. Lian into the flower hall together, and after the guests and hosts sat down, they stood behind Mrs. Lian and listened to Mrs. Lian talking to the two ladies in a regular manner.

Huiya secretly looked at it, this Mrs. Hu looked like she was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with phoenix eyes and slightly yellow skin, looking informal and easy to get along with.

And the other is Mrs. Qu, Mrs. Qu is in her early thirties, with fair skin and face like a full moon, a smile and two dimples, looking very gentle and gentle.

The two of them didn't look like they were getting along hard, Hui Ya thought secretly in her heart, but she heard Mrs. Lian call her name, "Hui Ya, come, give a salute to the two ladies." ”

"Sister Fengmei, Sister Danzhu, this is the niece I recognize, the same as my daughter, surnamed Zhao Huiya, like Yuehua and Chenguang, I brought it back from the mountains." Mrs. Lian said that it was the identity of Huiya's official visit.

"Little girl Huiya, meet the two ladies!" Huiya felt the gaze on her body, and only felt that her face was heating up. She struggled not to tremble in her voice, and let her walk smoothly, and slowly came to the two ladies and bowed her knees.

"Sure enough, it's a sign person, I can see that Aunt Fengmei likes it tightly, come, this is a meeting gift for you!" Mrs. Hu was stunned when she heard Mrs. Lian say Huiya's name, but she immediately reacted, smiled and took the lead in praise, pulling Huiya's hand and looking up and down, her eyes were full of smiles, and there was a trace of unknown exploration.

She took off a red gold bracelet from her wrist and put it on Hui Ya's hand, obviously loving Hui Ya's younger generation.

"Aunt Fengmei......" Huiya was startled by the red gold bracelet, and hurriedly turned back to look at Mrs. Lian, seeing her nodding with a smile, obviously this bracelet can be accepted, which relieved her mind and thanked her softly.

"You Zhao Lazi, no one is as fast as you!" Mrs. Qu on the side joked with a smile, reached out and took off her jade pendant of the pressure skirt, and handed it to Hui Ya, "This is a meeting gift from your Aunt Danzhu, which is much stronger than Zhao Lazi's gold bracelet." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Danzhu!" Hui Ya still looked at Mrs. Lian's eyes, and when she saw that Mrs. Lian agreed, she thanked her and accepted the meeting gift.

Holding a jade pendant in his hand and a gold bracelet on his wrist, this part of the ceremony is over, Huiya stood beside Mrs. Lian, and her heart finally calmed down a lot.

With a good start, Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Qu are not picky people, but they are intentional to make friends with the Lian family, and the conversation and banquet afterwards will be extremely smooth. After eating without any twists and turns, the two ladies retired together, although there was no danger or danger, but when a few people spoke, Hui Ya really learned a lesson in lady diplomacy.

And at this time, Huiya knew that in her previous life, she was known as a so-called talented woman, and in addition to being able to wash her reputation, she was actually useless. It's no wonder that even if his reputation is good, no one is willing to come to the door to propose marriage, after all, the gap between being a talented woman and being the daughter-in-law of a big family is too big.

And myself, it's really too far behind. (To be continued.) )
