592 The difference between cloud and mud
There were quite a few people who came to Yang Taishi's Mansion to attend the wedding banquet, and I think many people came to see the excitement, especially the officials of the Lin faction and the officials of the neutral faction.
As for the officials of the Cheng faction, they also came to the door. In this case, if they didn't come, I was afraid that the Taishi Mansion would still be gossiped about, saying that they didn't attach importance to this wedding. In Taishi Yang's heart, all the posts to the hostile forces have been posted anyway, so why care about these?
The major families don't look down on these pickled things, and they don't want to come, but they are afraid of offending the old sage, after all, with the prosperity of the imperial examination, the status of the family is declining, so in the end, they sent the junior people to come.
Hua Tian had a title, so he was taken to the circle of ladies with a decree to speak.
Since getting married, she has faded out of the aristocratic circle in Beijing, and later became pregnant and gave birth to children, and she has not been in contact for a long time. As soon as this son enters the circle, he can't find anyone familiar with him at all.
Fortunately, the status of the Hua family is rising day by day, and Zhong Liche is obviously valued by the old sage, and the ladies have the heart to make friends with her, but they do not snub her.
Li Shangshu's daughter, Li Xian's sister Miss Li is also here, since she got married, she has begun to get rich, and this time she looks very plump.
Seeing Hua Tian, Miss Li's eyes flashed at first, and she soon talked to Hua Tian with a smile.
Over the years, she has also received a fate, so she is also in the circle of noble ladies.
Hua Tian pretended not to find anything, and chatted with Miss Li very happily. She herself is eloquent and sociable, and the rest of the noble ladies also have the heart to make friends, and after a while, she broke into the circle, and many people are very agreeable.
"This marriage. I was a little hesitant to give gifts. One of the noble ladies said.
Another noble lady hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, it is said to be a flat wife, but since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there has never been such a ridiculous thing." What is going down at the moment is the gift of the Ming media's marriage, but I don't know what kind of gift to give. ”
Hua Tian listened, keeping a smile on his face, but did not echo it.
These are all Mrs. Fate, who is in the inner house, how can they not know what gift to give? Say so. Just to show off. How appropriate is the gift they have prepared?
I can't burn myself horizontally and vertically, I just listen to it, and if I need to nod my head and echo it twice.
Sure enough, the two of you come and go. I've already started to say what this will give. Why send this. According to the rules. How to measure, one by one, they are foaming at the mouth.
Hua Tian didn't say anything, and when asked, he said a little at the right time. Very much the heart of the noble lady.
At this time, they are showing off, and they don't want to be sidelined except to listen and praise. Hua Liuniang is a loyal listener and a hard-working and high-level praiser, and they are the most welcome.
Miss Li was held in the palm of her hand at home, and after she got married, her husband's family treated her very well, and she was used to being touted.
Who knows, these noble ladies hate this kind of young man's trickery the most, and ran over with several rolls and cold eyes, which quickly hit Miss Li with a depressed expression.
Hua Tian watched it funny from the sidelines, she still wanted to be the center on this occasion, this Miss Li's life was too smooth, she didn't suffer any setbacks, and she acted rampantly.
The ladies snubbed Miss Li, and pulled Hua Tian to talk, enjoying themselves.
After showing off what gifts they had given and how they echoed the specifications, which was a model of the inner house, these noble ladies looked around and gossiped in a low voice.
"I heard that someone from the Sun family came to the wedding banquet today, and everyone had a smile on their faces." A noble lady said in a low voice.
Another lady took a sip of tea and said slowly, "The sage has made an order, and they can only come with a smile." ”
Hearing her speak, a few more noble ladies opened their mouths, saying that there were people from the Sun family, but everyone's attitude was very good, and they didn't show any indignation.
Hua Tian himself came late and didn't know these inside stories, but when he heard it, he couldn't help but think about it.
It stands to reason that even if the saint marries, even if the Sun family is generous, in the face of such a ridiculous thing, he will definitely be angry, how can he smile?
After thinking about it, she said in a low voice, "I think it's the sage Tianwei, and the Sun family doesn't dare to be careful." ”
"The sage Tianwei can intimidate the Sun family, but the Taishi Mansion and the Sun family are ...... Ouch, what am I talking about, you just know it......" said a noblewoman and smiled.
Everyone immediately understood that it must have been something beneficial to the Sun family from the bottom of Taishi Yang's mansion, so that the Sun family did not show any dissatisfaction.
confirmed his conjecture, Hua Tian began to watch from the wall again, but from time to time he echoed a few words and said a lot of beautiful things.
What the Sun family and the Taishi Mansion did was a normal transaction for a large family, but for Yang Shizhong's wife, the Sun family, this move was too chilling.
But the thought came to her, and she burst into laughter.
Sun is a woman cultivated by the family, and her thoughts are definitely different from ordinary women. A daughter of a family like the Sun family thinks most about the interests of the family. If the Sun family gains benefits in this matter, the Sun family will also be benevolent.
Hua Tian thought about it for a while, then put it behind him and continued to listen to this group of noble ladies.
These people all have orders, and most of them are powerful figures in different families in Beijing, and they know a lot of news. Even if she didn't say it all, she could only hear a few words, which was useful.
This hearing really made her hear what she wanted to know.
The county lord of Duanyi and the county lord Shufang were very good when they were young, and the two often went to each other's mansions to live and play together, which was better than the sisterhood of ordinary people. However, when the county lord of Duanyi was ten years old, the two fell out.
When they meet again, the county lord of Duanyi is still the county lord of Duanyi, but the county lord of Shufang has changed his temperament greatly, and he has to go against the county lord of Duanyi in everything.
When Hua Tian heard this, a terrifying guess arose in his heart, and he suddenly lost his mind.
"What's wrong with Liuniang? But when I remembered the shrewd demeanor of the county lord of Shufang, I was scared? "There is a noble lady who looks at Hua Tian and is a little distraught. His face was also a little pale, so he asked.
Hua Tian immediately put aside the speculation in his heart and forced himself to deal with the many noble ladies.
When someone reported that the bride was about to enter the door, and invited everyone to go to the garden to see it, Hua Tian even restrained his thoughts, and no longer dared to think about his original guess.
There are people everywhere here, and there are many enemies, so she can't help but lose her etiquette by thinking about it.
In the corner of the garden, Lin Xinqing, Zhao Xiuchu and several young women sat together and talked. One of them. Wearing gold and silver, his bearing is very extraordinary. At this time, the young woman was talking, and some of the young women next to her nodded yes, and some of them responded casually. Don't put people in your eyes much.
In the face of the contempt of the crowd. The young woman didn't seem to see it. He spoke unhurriedly, but every word was said appropriately, and he praised the rest of the women.
Lin Xinqing has a hearty temperament. He didn't care about the others, but he was very happy when he heard the words, and he talked happily with the young woman.
Zhao Xiuchu saw it on the side, and saw that the young woman was not bad-hearted, she was sociable and talkative, so she smiled and watched, and echoed a few words from time to time.
With the acceptance of Zhao Xiuchu and Lin Xinqing, the attitude of the rest of the young women gradually improved. Soon after, the young woman, with her ability to speak, completely integrated into the circle.
There is only one more, and she is also the lord of the eight-sided exquisite, she saw that this young woman had a good mouth, and took advantage of her own limelight, thinking about the identity of the young woman, she couldn't help but say, "Your Sun family is also atmospheric, I admire it very much." ”
This talking young woman is the maiden sister of Yang Shizhong's wife, Sun, ranked twelve, and is known as Sun Twelve Niang. This time it was the wedding banquet for Yang Shizhong to marry his wife, and the Sun family also came.
When the eight-faced lord said this, he was sarcastic that the Sun family had no reaction when they were stepped on in the face, and even smiled at Yan Yan to attend the wedding banquet.
Sun Twelve Niang was stunned for a moment, but quickly covered it up and said with a smile, "The royal power is extraordinary, and when it comes to us, we will also take up one or two ......."
When the eight-faced delicate lord heard this, he was about to say something again, when Lin Xinqing smiled and said, "Sister You, don't you love lotus seed soup?" In Jingzhou, the twelfth mother's house, the Honghu lotus seeds are famous, and they are also to your taste. ”
Before the eight-faced young woman You Shi could speak, Sun Twelve Niang laughed, "Does Mrs. You really like to eat lotus seed soup?" It just so happened that I brought some to Beijing this time, and if Mrs. You doesn't dislike it, I'll order someone to send some to the house when I turn around. ”
The fame of Honghu Lotus Seeds, You Shi also knows, and when he saw that Sun Twelve Niang tried her best to please herself, she was angry in her heart, and said, "You brought it all the way here, so you don't have to pull it for me." If you are bored in Beijing, you can be a guest at the Humble House. ”
As soon as she heard this, Sun Twelve Niang knew that the attitude of the You family in front of her had softened, and she hurriedly said a few good words, which made You Shi even happier.
After a while, the people talked for a while, and a maid said that the bride was about to enter the door.
Lin Xinqing glanced around, and said with a smile, "It's convenient for us to see here, but the location is not good enough, so let's walk to the left to see?" ”
All the young women nodded, agreed, and got up together and walked to the left.
After they chose a place to broaden their horizons, Hua Tian and his party slowly walked into the garden. They are all noblewomen with titles or orders in Beijing, and they have specially arranged places to sit and watch.
As soon as Sun Twelve Niang, who was talking to You's family, looked up, she saw eight or nine richly dressed ladies walking into the garden, and one of them looked even more familiar.
She looked at it carefully for a moment, gasped, and suddenly remembered who this person was!
Back then, she and her two brothers went to live in Shanyang Town and got acquainted with this person. At that time, she saw that this person was wearing the rosary of the enlightened master in his hand, and she thought about snatching it, and asked someone to come for this, and did not hesitate to coerce and lure. It's a pity that this person is extremely smart, knocked on a few of her valuable things, and left Shanyang Town.
For this, she later asked the two brothers to punish her, and she really hated this person in her heart. Back then, she thought that if she met this person again, she must take revenge fiercely.
But later she got married, and the news of the rise of the Hua family spread all over the world, and Hua Liuniang, who deceived herself, rose in status and became the county lord, and then became the county lord. In addition, her poetry is famous all over the world.
Sun Twelve Niang thinks that she is not bad married, but her husband has not been promoted for many years, and the family is a little depressed. And her old enemy Hua Liuniang flew up to the branches and became a phoenix in the capital, which can be described as a spring breeze.
The original careful thought of revenge has disappeared, and it is more of the resentment that the person who was once inferior to himself has risen to the top and he has fallen.
She looked at the sky in the back house more than once and asked why, why Hua Liuniang, who was in the decline of the family, flew up to the branch and stood happily in a place out of her reach, while she had to work hard and live a tight life.
The extreme contrast between the past and the present and the resentment in the past are far less than the shock that I saw with my own eyes this time.
She whispered to please the woman who had no title in Beijing and was not from a family, but Hua Liuniang was dressed luxuriously and was admired and praised by others. In the flowery garden, there is only a short distance in the middle, and two people who are separated from each other are separated by cloud and mud.
Sun Twelve Niang's heart was full of pain, and the old pain that had been suppressed in the past gushed out like a frenzy, and she couldn't suppress it at all. With that pain came a deep hatred and resentment towards Hua Liuniang.
At the beginning, she was born in a family, with fine clothes and food, and enjoyed the fairy dew elixir that ordinary people didn't even dare to imagine, while Hua Liuniang was born in a declining second-rate family, and she didn't know how to dress and eat. The difference between nobility and humility is so obvious.
Why is it that after just a few years, all the qiē is turned upside down? The noble one became Hua Liuniang, and the lowly one became her!
Sun Twelve Niang's heart is resentful, on the one hand, resentment makes her miserable reality, and on the other hand, resentment of the unchangeable future. She knew that no matter how her husband was promoted, she would not be able to go beyond Hua Liuniang.
When she went to Beijing, her family told her that she must be good friends with the Hua family. Because in the next few decades, this court may be the world of the Hua family.
What a bright future, what a hopeless future.
Sun Twelve Niang's resentment accumulated too deeply, and she suddenly met Hua Tian and forgot to hide it at all.
The noble lady at the same table was shocked when she saw what Sun Twelve Niang saw, and then her face changed greatly, and then her face was full of resentment, and they were all taken aback, and looked over with her gaze.
They want to know what it is, or who can make this eight-faced Sun Twelve Niang so out of shape and so resentful.
What they saw were the top ladies in the capital except for the royal family, walking slowly, their clothes fluttering, and their postures were myriad.
After only one glance, they moved their eyes back to Sun Shi Niang, and saw that her face was still full of resentment, and they suddenly made a decision in their hearts to stay away from this Sun Shi Niang.
They were not of noble origin, and they could not be enemies of those noble ladies under any circumstances. This Sun Twelve Niang must have a grudge against one of the noblewomen, and they don't want to get into trouble. (To be continued......)
