Chapter 262: Entering the Mansion
Yang Shan couldn't help but scold after knowing the intention: This lady is really polite, Lu Anning and Qiu Wenxu who will take care of whom is not certain!
Slander is slander, people say kind words, and the two of them can't respond to it no matter how thick-skinned they are! So Yang Shan followed Lu Anning to salute again, and Lu Anning said: "Senior brother takes more care of me, it should be me who comes to thank me." ”
said kind words here, and someone over there came to call Qiu Wenxu's mother, saying that there was a distinguished guest and asked the two to receive them. Qiu Wenxu and his mother nodded to Lu Anning and Yang Shan when they heard this, and then left in a hurry.
After the two of them left, a servant came over to invite Lu Anning to the outer hall, and Yang Shan was taken to the backyard by the maid. In fact, according to the original process, Yang Shan went directly into the backyard, but Lu Anning and Yang Shan didn't know much about this, so they didn't care.
Yang Shan was led to the backyard, where there were already many women. Because the Qiu family was still in mourning this time, the inner courtyard was not as noisy as Yang Shan imagined. Yang Shan was taken all the way by the maidservant to a young woman.
The servant whispered to the man, "This is the young lady of the enemy's family. ”
When the woman heard this, she immediately understood, waved her hand to let the servant step back and take Yang Shan's hand, and said, "You are An Ning's wife?" Ah! In the blink of an eye, An Ning has reached the age of marrying a wife. As he spoke, he patted Yang Shan's hand as if he was very pleased.
Yang Shan was held by a woman she didn't know, and it was natural to be awkward. But the host said politely, and Yang Shan couldn't brush her hand away. So he also followed the politeness: "Sister, do you know my father-in-law?" I thought Xianggong only knew your third master! ”
The beautiful woman smiled and said, "That's nature. I think that when they were studying at home, they lived at home for a while, how could I not know them? After speaking, he patted Yang Shan's hand again. Said: "I only care about talking to you, and I don't tell you who I am." ”
Yang Shan smiled and listened to this woman: "I am the daughter-in-law of the Qiu family, and my maiden name is an orchid character, if you don't dislike it, call me Sister Lan!" ”
Orchid? Yang Shan flashed a hint of surprise and said, "It turns out that you are Sister Lan!" ”
Yang Shan said this strangely, and the woman asked unexpectedly, "Do you know me?" ”
Yang Shan sighed: "I was a bride for the first time. Xianggong was afraid that I would lose my manners, so he wanted to tell one or two, but ...... I didn't expect Sister Lan to be so young! According to what Lu Anning said, this woman is thirty-six or seven years old. It's just that Yang Shan looked like she was no more than twenty-four or five years old at first glance, so Yang Shan was suspicious at first and didn't dare to admit it.
Yang Shan made a big detour and praised the young woman in front of her, and the woman was happy. Holding Yang Shan's hand was a little more affectionate. said: "It turns out that Little Brother Lu married a sweet-mouthed girl. ”
Yang Shan smiled. Bow your head and say nothing. The eldest daughter-in-law seemed to like Yang Shan, pulled Yang Shan into the hall inside, personally arranged Yang Shan to sit down, and then let the servants wait, and went to greet the others again.
Yang Shan sat bored for a while, and the eldest daughter-in-law came back, seeing that Yang Shan was bored, she said, "The women in this courtyard are all kind. If you're idle and bored, just walk around and make two friends. "This is to teach Yang Shan to expand his network. Yang Shan thanked the eldest daughter-in-law when he heard it, and although he agreed, he didn't have the intention of going out to make friends in his heart.
Make? Yang Shan came here just to celebrate his birthday, what did he do with those people?
The Qiu family has a complicated family background, starting from business, and then donating a petty official, and this way, step by step, went to the DPRK and China. After the matter of buying an official was poked open by someone with a heart, the Qiu family almost suffered a catastrophe. happened to catch up with the once-in-a-century disaster, Qiu Wenxu's grandfather gritted his teeth and took out the whole family's belongings for disaster relief. The one in the court saw the benevolence of the Qiu family and saved a catastrophe, and also issued a decree to crown the Qiu family as "the first merchant in the world".
Since then, the Qiu family has been called an official, but it is a businessman. The twists and turns of this are unclear about Yang Shan, but there is only one thing that can be known: everyone here is not simple, either the relatives of officials or the relatives of large commercial houses. If it is a commercial house, it will be fine, but if the official's relatives are friends with Yang Shan...... Left and right are just a sharp word. Lu Anning specially told Yang Shan on the road that the relationship here was complicated, and asked Yang Shan not to wade into this complicated troubled water.
Yang Shanzi kept it firmly in his heart and didn't dare to slack off.
Yang Shan sat here for a long time, and the daughter-in-law of the Qiu family saw that Yang Shan had no intention of making friends, so she pulled a little girl over and introduced Yu Yang Shandao: "This is the girl of my uncle's family, called Ning Ru, and I don't like to join in the fun outside, so you can talk together and be a companion!" ”
This woman called Ning Ru is actually not a small girl, she may be older than Yang Shan, but now she is still combing the girl's bun, so Yang Shan calls her a little girl.
Ning Ru was obviously a little reluctant when she was pulled over by her cousin, probably thinking that her cousin was going to introduce her to the relatives of an official. But when I came over and saw Yang Shan'an sitting quietly in the corner, my cousin only said that I would let the two be companions, so I breathed a sigh of relief when I didn't mean anything else. So without the urging of his cousin, he made a half-salute to Yang Shan, and said, "Ning Ru has seen Madame." ”
Yang Shan also stood up and introduced himself: "My husband's surname is Qiu. ”
Seeing that the two of them had no intention of rejecting, the Qiu family and daughter-in-law relieved their hearts and said, "I still have guests to greet outside, you can do your best." Speaking of which, we are all a family, and it is good to know each other. ”
After the Qiu family's daughter-in-law finished speaking, Ning Ruhu's face turned red, and then she glanced at her cousin with some disgust. Her cousin covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Xiao Nizi is lawless, and she even knows how to be shy!" Seeing that his cousin was even more annoyed, he didn't tease her anymore, and then Yin Yin instructed him to leave.
After the Qiu family's daughter-in-law, Sister Lan, left, the rest of Yang Shan and this Ning Ru girl were not good at creating an atmosphere, so the two were relatively speechless for a while, and finally Yang Shan spoke first: "Miss Ning Ru also came with her family to celebrate her birthday this time?" ”
Seeing Yang Shan's question, Ning Ru glanced up at Yang Shan, and replied a little shyly: "My father and brother came to Qiu Mansion to celebrate their birthday this time, as for me...... It's been more than two months since I came to Qiu Mansion. ”
Been here for two months? Yang Shan nodded, and because he had nothing to say, he casually asked, "It's been two months since I was a guest?" ”
The little girl is sincere, and when she saw Yang Shan asking, she lowered her head and said, "My cousin picked me up, saying that I am not young and it is time to find my mother-in-law." ”
Yang Shan was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that the little girl had a smile on her face after speaking, she chuckled and comforted: "This is an ordinary thing, what do you do if you are shy?" (To be continued......)
