Chapter 144: Demonstrations

Today, the old lady of the Marquis of Wenxin Mansion is on her birthday, and early in the morning, the big red cannon battle outside the door crackles non-stop, and it is very lively.

The front yard has already been full of seats, on the eaves, on the door frame plaques, in the corridors, everywhere is full of lights, there is an endless stream of guests to congratulate, and the gentlemen in the house are so busy that their feet do not touch the ground.

As a birthday star, the old lady doesn't have to worry about anything today, as long as she sits and drinks tea and chats, she has already surrounded a large circle of Mrs. Lady who came to congratulate her, including peers and juniors, and everyone said auspicious words to her.

Murong's concubines handed out birthday bags at the street early in the morning, and many people passing by came to line up, as long as they said a word of auspiciousness, they could receive a few birthday bags, and everyone was willing to come and be happy.

When the buns were finished and the time was almost up, the four concubines went back to the house to talk to the old lady and entertain the ladies who came to the door.

Among the guests, the earliest one to come was a large family of Meng Guofu, Meng Guogong and Mrs. Meng came over with their families very early and came to help, which made the old marquis very bright, and he respected his wife more and more.

Her husband and son were busy in the front yard, and Mrs. Meng stayed by the old lady's side, helping to entertain the ladies and chatting happily with a group of ladies and wives.

Zhou Yuhan also came early with his wife and children, and also helped entertain the guests, busy with everything.

Meng Yahui and Zhou Mi'er were annoyed by a group of flowery young ladies, because An Ruojin had to take care of the sick An Ruolan, so they had to help entertain the young ladies who came to drink the wedding wine, but they were depressed. finally got a gap, and the two of them secretly went to find An Ruojin and the two sisters under the pretext of having an upset stomach.

By the time An Ruoke and An Ruoyan found out that they couldn't find anyone, the two had already slipped away to nowhere.

After taking the wrong path for the third time, Meng Yahui refused to go, and complained angrily: "Do you know the way, how many times have you gone wrong?" ”

Zhou Mi'er scratched the back of her head and sighed: "Oh, I remember it's here, who knows it's wrong to go around and around, don't worry, let's try other ways." ”

"Do you want to try?" Meng Yahui glared and said reluctantly: "Then it's better to go back......"

Halfway through her words, she spotted a large group of people coming from not far away, and suddenly screamed in fright: "Oh, it's not good! ”

Zhou Mi'er followed her line of sight, and also secretly screamed badly, why did she meet this group of stinky men!

The two quickly covered their faces with handkerchiefs, panicking and trying to find a place to hide.

It's just that where is there a place to hide on the verandah?

Seeing that the group of people was getting deeper and deeper, Zhou Mi'er had no choice but to grit her teeth and shout: "Run!" ”

After that, he pulled Meng Yahui, and the two of them were frightened rabbits, kicking and kicking, and ran away in three or two clicks.

Not far away, Zhou Yongxuan looked at the back of his sister who was unreserved and fled in the wilderness, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Meng San bent the corners of his lips without a trace, and said with a smile: "I don't know whose girl is playing in front, let's change the way and save the collision." ”

A group of sons and brothers agreed, and everyone turned to another road.

Zhou Mi'er and Meng Yahui hid behind the flowers, and only then did they come out with their heads poked out until they could no longer see a human figure.

"Whew......" Zhou Mi'er let out a long sigh of relief, and was about to speak, when a familiar crisp voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Sister Mi'er, Sister Hui, are you two playing hide and seek with your cousin?" An Ruolan looked at the two sneaky cousins amusedly, and her tone was full of banter.

Meng Yahui turned around, saw that it was her, breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily: "I still said it, it's not to look for you." ”

"Like, if it weren't for the sake of seeing you, where would we need such a wolf?" Zhou Mi'er complained and patted the blades of grass on her body.

Seeing that her cousins' faces were not good, An Ruolan smiled playfully and hurriedly apologized: "It's my fault that makes the two sisters worried." ”

Zhou Mi'er widened, pinched her cheek, her complexion softened, pulled her to look at her again, and asked with concern, "Is it really okay?" ”

"Yes, I heard that you fell ill suddenly, and my grandmother was shocked." Meng Yahui also stepped forward and pulled her to look left and right, her face full of worry.

"It's fine, it's just a bit cold." An Ruolan took their hands and smiled comfortingly. The two of them saw that her complexion was ruddy, not like she was lying, so they finally put their minds at ease.

An Ruojin only spoke at this time and asked, "Where is Yirongyuan, why did you come here?" Why don't you find a maid to lead the way? ”

This question made the two of them blush, and Zhou Mi'er was so embarrassed that it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "We ran here secretly, where do we dare to find a maid to lead the way." ”

Meng Yahui was thin-skinned, covering her face and unable to say a word.

Hearing this, An Ruojin and An Ruolan couldn't help but laugh, and the feelings of these two people were road idiots.

After laughing for a while, the four of them went back to the front yard together.

When An Ruoke and An Ruoyan saw them coming back together, they immediately understood, and couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "I said why did the two sisters disappear suddenly, it turned out that they went to find Sister Jin and Sister Lan, and it really hurt us enough." ”

Zhou Mi'er and Meng Yahui hurriedly apologized: "Aren't we coming back, we are also worried about Lan'er, and the two younger sisters are not angry." ”

Of course, An Ruoke and the two couldn't really get angry, and if they complained twice, it would be fine.

The six of them greeted the ladies together, and only then did they cope.

said that it was a greeting, but in fact, it was to accompany the conversation, and a group of young ladies got together, so it was inevitable to gossip.

The girls who came were all marriageable girls, and the chatter was naturally all gossip about young sons.

The so-called radish greens have their own love, all the sons and brothers who have reached the marriageable age, as long as their character and appearance are not too bad, most of them have girls in the picture, and as the younger sister of the son's brother who was in the picture, An Ruojin, Meng Yahui, Zhou Mi'er and An Ruoyan were miserable, and the four of them were almost drowned in the girls' saliva.

Because there is no biological brother, and the brother has not yet reached marriageable age, An Ruoke and An Ruolan survived, looking at the four sisters who were surrounded by the group, the two swallowed their saliva silently, and did not step forward to help very tacitly.

"This is Miss An Si, right?"

A slightly sharp, arrogant voice sounded overhead, An Ruoke and An Ruolan, who were watching the play in horror, raised their heads, and saw a young girl dressed luxuriously dressed and arrogant standing in front of the two.

An Ruoke blinked suspiciously, got up and asked politely, "...... is this young lady?"

"I'm Miss Changfang of Jing'an Houfu, ranked seventh." The visitor glanced at the two sisters contemptuously and said proudly.

Jing'an Hou Mansion?

An Ruolan raised her eyebrows without a trace, for no reason, and she didn't know her, how could the young lady of the Marquis Mansion of Jing'an talk to the fourth sister? And she reports that she is Miss Changfang, no matter how you listen to it, it smells of demonstration.

With a roll of his eyes, An Ruolan stood up and said quietly: "It turned out to be the sister of the Marquis of Jing'an, and she was polite." ”

"Hmm." As if he was very satisfied with An Ruolan's courtesy, Wei Qi bowed his head solemnly, did not return the salute, and said in a gift-like tone: "You can call me Sister Wei Qi." With that, Shi Shiran sat down.

Hehe, An Ruolan sneered in her heart, what a big shelf.

An Ruoke only felt that this person was inexplicable, and couldn't help asking, "You have something to do with me?" ”

Hearing this, Wei Qi lifted the corners of his mouth unnaturally, held the shelf, and said leisurely: "It's nothing, I just heard that Mrs. An has been inquiring about her cousin's news recently, and my aunt is very unhappy, so that I can let me know, so that some delusional people can dispel the idea of eating swan meat from toads, and they don't look at their own identity." ”

The mocking tone, even if it is straightforward and simple like An Ruoke, can also hear the malice in it.

"Who do you say toad?!" An Ruoke drank lowly, she still remembered that today was her grandmother's birthday, and the person in front of her was a guest, otherwise she would have beaten people directly.

An Ruolan looked at the fourth sister who was restraining her anger with relief, and then the smile on her face turned cold, she looked at Wei Qi, still polite and polite, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know which cousin Miss Wei refers to?" ”

"Naturally, he is the second young master of the Pingkang Hou Mansion." Wei Qi didn't feel that his words were inappropriate at all, and looked at people with his chin held high.

"Oh." An Ruolan raised her eyebrows clearly, she probably knew who it was.

Sneered, she seemed to smile and said: "Who am I, it turned out to be Second Young Master Chen, just ......"

After a pause, the smile on the corner of her mouth became colder, and she continued: "I just don't know in what capacity Miss Wei Qi said this?" Even if she was entrusted by Mrs. Chen, Miss Wei has no name and no point, it is too easy for people to misunderstand when she says this, and if she doesn't know, she thinks that Miss Wei Qi is in a hurry to marry Chen Ershao. ”

A girl's family, in a hurry to marry a man, in the eyes of the family, is an extremely humiliating thing, otherwise the second aunt would not still be ridiculed by others, but she knows that the style of the second aunt is different from that of this Wei Qi, and the second aunt is pursuing it openly, not playing such small tricks behind her back.

"You...... What a sharp-toothed girl! Wei Qi frowned, looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention, she was a little embarrassed, and lowered her voice and said: "My cousin and I grew up together since childhood, whether it is a family or a family background, we are a very good match, we should be together!" My aunt promised me a long time ago! ”

The last sentence was quite proud, and while speaking, she raised her eyebrows and provoked An Ruoke, but unfortunately An Ruoke didn't understand at all, so she only had cramps.

"Oh, yes." An Ruolan responded lukewarmly, and the slightly evoked tail note made people reverie infinitely.

Wei Qi suddenly fidgeted, always felt that she had something to say, and couldn't help but whisper: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

An Ruolan shrugged her shoulders and pretended to be naΓ―ve: "I don't have anything to say." ”

can make Wei Qi angry.

"Anyway, you do it yourself, don't let my aunt hear any more gossip about your mother's news of your cousin." Throwing down such a sentence at An Ruoke, Wei Qicang left in panic. R1152
