Lao Siniang said about the Chen family, and her eyes glanced at the corner of the room.

There are four open river windows along the river, and there are charcoals burning by the movable lattice windows, and there is a flat table, and Xiao Ruiniang is learning to use a tin iron to iron her skirt with Li Qiulan.

Although he came to Tangfang to seek relatives, Chen Hong, the head of the family, also heard that Tangfang Ji's heart was towards the Great Song Dynasty and knew the rumors of Song Li. Of course, the Chen family is unwilling to let the in-laws be rude and ridiculed.

The eldest lady sent Miss Rui to the Huang Mansion, didn't she just watch the Huang family lady come from a big business in the north? She naturally understands the rules of the Song girl's family. I also know how to arrange outside business and get along with rough men outside.

Over the years, Huang Qilang has been running at sea, and the business of his home, dock, and shop is all taken care of by Mrs. Huang.

But the Chen family is not a nouveau riche after all......

"When the Quanzhou official was still in our workshop, I haven't seen what Chen Gangshou looked like."

Ji Qingchen knew her scruples, glanced at her with a smile, and said casually,

"Gongzi Wenchang is going to participate in the poetry meeting, and he is invited by the mountain chief of Siming Academy, and the people who want to come to the banquet are all famous scholars or young officials in the officialdom. They will inevitably have official escorts, right? ”

Only then did Lao Siniang understand that she really knew it a long time ago, and hurriedly laughed:

"Yes. Big lady. The small rice wine produced in the wine warehouse of Sanyuange is a famous product of the city. One of the fine wines of Shanggong. Therefore, the official performance is also the best in the local area. ”

"I think it's the head of Mingzhou City, and he's in charge of this building?"

She thought about the Lin thief she had seen by Lou Yun's side.

She knows that the musicians who can sit at the head of the line, in addition to their outstanding color and art, are indispensable to have the officials of the house as backers.

Just looking at Lin Thief's respectful and considerate appearance towards Lou Yun, who doesn't know that Lin Thief Niang is Lou Yun's friend?

Jun Mo's leftover boy. He once happened to say on the boat that Lin Jiaoniang was planning to retire and marry an innocent family. But the current customs of the Great Song Dynasty are that most of the women from poor families and good families are sent to the mansion as concubines by their parents.

What's more, is it an official trick like Lin Thief Niang to Lou Yun?

If he can follow Lou Yun's envoy and retire in the future, isn't it a natural concubine in his house?

In Zhuma Temple, she listened to Xie Guoyun and Ah Chi lobbying her vigorously and talking about her relationship with Lou Yun.

Then. She knew there must be such a thing.

-- Now leave it to Zhao Deyuan, the county lord, to worry about it.

"The head of the line here is also from a criminal official's family?"

Lin Stealniang's father and brother were originally from a big family in Quanzhou City. Of course she already knew about it.

Lao Siniang saw that she knew a lot about the official tricks, and she was a little bolder, and said:

"The origin of Xue Xingshou in this city is a little strange. The pacification of the Liangzhejiang Road made Lord Wang originally an official in the Jiangyin army. Jiangyin is a military state, and Xue Xingshou is the official of Jiangyin. It is said that he is still a camp prostitute in the border army. As a result, Wang pacified the envoy from the Jiangyin army to the pacification envoy of the Liangzhejiang Road, and when he arrived in Mingzhou City, Xue Xingshou was also promoted to the head of the local official line. ”

“…… This is also a bit blatant. ”

Ji Qingchen laughed. looked around at the mothers standing in the room,

"The officials of the Great Song Dynasty cannot have an affair with the officials. I saw that the envoy of Lou Guo was sent out with official tricks. Behind the scenes, I don't know. In front of outsiders. But it's a rule. Where would I not know the taboo, such a popular official who was promoted all the way to the official position? ”

Mother Ji and Mrs. Hu were old and mature, looked at each other, and were completely indifferent.

Li Qiulan by the carved hanger. It's a newcomer, and it sounds strange. On the contrary, it is Ji Ruiniang beside her, because she often learns the rules of the Great Song Dynasty. So he suddenly made a small face and said:

"It's not a good officer."

Her words caused the room full of women to laugh. The tile lady couldn't help but smile and cover her mouth and shake her head.

"That's right."

Ji Qingchen didn't think she was wrong, but said:

"We don't care if he's good or not. Even if it's a capable person. But it's too flamboyant. When you are proud, you are very proud, and when you are frustrated, you are afraid that you have no face. ”

Wa Niangzi, who had always been reluctant to return to the Great Song Dynasty, suddenly pouted and said loudly:

"Although the official position of this Lord Wang sounds high, the way to be an official is not as shrewd as the envoy surnamed Lou."

recalled and admired, "This Lou envoy has sixteen beauties around him, and he didn't let me see who he likes the most." That's what makes a big deal. ”

“……”

Ji Qingchen rarely heard Wa Niangzi say good things about the Song people.

So after seeing Lou Yun, Wa Niangzi had a particularly good impression of him, and she was simply puzzled.

She naturally understood the meaning of Wa Niangzi's words, it was also an official trick, and Lin Thief Niang remarried a good family after retiring from her membership.

Isn't this good family a Lou family, who is it?

Lou Yun is so smart.

So this greedy little cleverness makes Wa Niangzi like him very much?

Maybe the tile lady has more lovers inside and outside Tangfang, and this rumor is also true?

She just heard that Wa Niangzi went from Nankyushu to Tangfang, and there were endless suitors for more than 20 years, and she had never overturned on seventeen or eighteen boats.

Achina's marriage is nothing compared to her.

But she never figured out which of the middle-aged people in the workshop were pursuing the tile lady.

She doesn't know the favorite person of the tile lady.

Could it be that this is because Wa Niangzi and Lou Yun also have the cleverness of "playing hooligans to be low-key"?

So, sympathy?

Lao Siniang hurriedly laughed and said:

And so it is. I heard that this Lord Lou was born in the southwest, and now he has such a high position, how can he not have a few more city governments? It is only natural that he knows how to protect himself. ”

She also felt reasonable, so she looked sideways at Lao Siniang and asked:

"Tonight, Hu Mansion must have also invited this king to appease the envoy?"

"Yes, big lady."

Lao Siniang felt that the eldest lady understood everything, and she was at peace with her, not afraid that she would be jealous and eat on this Xue Xingshou.

"Don't worry, big lady. Even if Xue Xingshou accompanies the banquet tonight for the sake of the mountain chief's face, who would dare to appease Wang and rob people? The other officials are far inferior to Xue Xingshou, where can they let Gongzi Wenchang take a second look? In my opinion, not so. ”

Ji Qingchen listened to Lao Siniang's words. I don't think she's comforting with empty words.

After all, Chen Wenchang is also from a family, and he is a serious person, so he must often participate in such a "poetry meeting" in Quanzhou City. 、

His vision is never too low.

Just like she looked at the sixteen Quanzhou musicians around Lou Yun, although they all looked good, but when it came to the beauties of both color and art, Lin Thief Niang was the first, followed by Yue Qing'er.

Others are still a little worse.

As for the stack point of her faction in Quanzhou. So far, I haven't heard about Chen Wenchang's affairs in Quanzhou City. There were always some reasons she couldn't find out.

Compared with the Chen family, the Quanzhou branch is just an outsider. Being ill-informed is a matter of course.

Fortunately, she is not in a hurry.

Lao Siniang smiled again. Road:

"Mrs. Wang Anfu is the lady of the fourth grade, in her eyes, where can she see this Xue Xingshou? So far, there has been no news of her being allowed to enter the mansion as a concubine. ”

Ji Qingchen also heard that Lao Siniang was persuading her to learn the four qualities. Take out the shelves of the big room.

I don't care about these little things.

What's more, Chen Wenchang went to Sanyuan Pavilion. Or to inquire about her second brother.

How to look at this family matter, of course, her own idea has already been decided. So I didn't say much, just laughed:

"Leave that to the fore. Sanyuan Pavilion is only half away from Hu Mansion, and Hu Mansion has this dinner. Where is there no mention of the poetry meeting? If a distinguished guest who is not long-sighted and deliberately embarrassed asks me, I must first think about how to reply. ”

Between words. She took a jasper scratch from Ji's mother's hand, and picked up the bright green dyed by a star on the tip of her eyebrows. Laughing carelessly,

"Look at it, this trip to Hufu. Maybe I made the Chen family shameless, or the Chen family made me shameless. ”

Lao Siniang was taken aback, and then she thought of this stubble, and couldn't help but worry.

"Lady, I heard that when Chen Gang returned to Quanzhou for the first time, he was going to take a musician named Yue Qing'er as a concubine, and the elders in Chen Gongzi's family are already like this......"

Ji Qingchen heard her turn her head, and began to be dissatisfied with Chen Wenchang's family style again, and couldn't help laughing, and said:

"What's the hurry? Aren't you still engaged? ”

Speaking, she put down the jade and scratched her head,

At this time, her makeup had been painted, but it was really not the usual homely dress in the workshop.

In the mirror, her eyebrows are deeply drawn, and her soft apricot eyes are drawn with three dignified and atmospheric gloom, and her forehead is a little pearlescent.

The green and red two-color ayako twisted out a six-petal flower sticker, and in the middle of the flower sticker is a golden lotus tray, inlaid with a red jade.

This is the forehead patch between her eyebrows.

She combed her black hair into a three-mountain high bun on her head, and only a three-mountain black gold inlaid red jade bead crown was curled at the bottom of the bun. There are no hairpin rings.

She originally had a fresh and beautiful goose egg face, but because of this gorgeous and rich dress, she showed a solemn and calm color.

She stood up, and Li Qiulan and Ji Ruiniang also prepared their clothes.

They took a white silk shirt from the hanger in the house, and the lower body was a long skirt with five long patterns of crimson embroidered flowers and birds, and on the outside was a black placket embroidered with gold and red black patterns, and a layer of extremely thin white single yarn with moire pattern was wrapped on the back.

According to the Song system, merchants could only wear black.

But now there are too few big businessmen who abide by this rule, and as long as they are not officials, no one will meddle in their affairs. And she has the grade of Wen Linlang again. So this body is just right.

Ji Ruiniang's eyes were bright and she looked at Ji Qingchen, who was dressed up. Lao Siniang also thinks that the eldest lady is so good-looking, and Chen Wenchang is not a blind person, why was he hooked away by the official trick when he was discussing relatives?

She also hurriedly stepped forward, took the finch head black handle Tang fan in the box, and gave it to her.

Ji Qingchen smiled sideways and said:

"Now I have to care about the poetry banquet attended by the prince of Wenchang, but I am in a hurry to marry into their family. I only see if he likes to listen to music or a beauty who likes to sing songs before I get engaged. ”

Seeing that the hour was not early, and after the people around her had taken care of it, she walked out of the river house.

The lantern led her towards the back door of the pontoon.

It's time to go to Hufu. (To be continued) R640
