Chapter 37: Embarrassment
"Miss Cousin, let's go to the garden here, you have been delayed here for a long time, the old lady must be worried." Orange Xiang smiled and persuaded.
For this young lady who has attracted the attention of her own marquis, she is extremely respectful, and her tone of voice is soft and even has a hint of flattery.
Cui Wanqing is a guest, she puts her identity very upright, and the orange fragrance can be sent by Ming'an Hou to herself, which itself shows that this maid must be a person who is trusted by the master, and for such a person, it is natural to be friendly.
"Alright, let's go." Cui Wanqing had a lovely smile on her face, retracted her gaze from afar, looked at Orange Xiang and nodded in agreement.
Orange Xiang personally opened the sedan curtain for Cui Wanqing, and sat down with Miss Biao, and then said crisply: "Get up the sedan chair, you can lift it steadily." ”
The two mothers-in-law responded with a smile, and the group followed the road and walked towards the back garden of the Hou Mansion.
Only about half of the way was gone, and Cui Wanqing in the sedan car heard Orange Xiang talking to someone, "Hello Sister Liuli, our Hou Ye was happy when he saw Miss Biao, and he couldn't help but say a few more words, but it made the old lady suspenseful?" Do you want to pick up Miss Watch? ”
A pleasant and soft voice said with a smile: "No, you also know, this year's birthday is like this, it's not easy, this year there is more Miss Cousin, the old lady is happy, I just asked several times, I had to come and see it in person." ”
Liuli's voice paused, and asked, "Master Hou, will you let you serve Miss Table today?" ”
"Yes, Master Hou is afraid that Miss Biao is not familiar with our house, so let my sister take care of it." Orange Xiang replied cheerfully.
"That's it" Liuli's voice was a little uncertain, dragging Orange Fragrance behind, and then lowered her voice and muttered a few words in Orange Fragrance's ear.
"What? My Emperor Bodhisattva, is this the idea of the Other? Will the sixth lady of our family push out the barrel? If this is really won by them, I am afraid that none of them will be able to please them. Orange Xiang stroked her chest with her hand, obviously unhappy, and she asked in a low voice, "Does the old lady know?" ”
Ruri shook her head slightly.
Orange Xiang looked at her frowning appearance, and felt that her head was as big as a bucket.
This is a shadowless thing, who dares to repay the master?
If nothing happens, who can afford to be held responsible?
"I can't stop this day." Cui Wanqing closed her eyes and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Although she only listened to the first two sentences, and the two people in the back lowered their voices, they didn't listen to a word, but Rao was like this, and it was only enough.
The big girl who can use her grandmother's side will not be as simple as just coming to greet herself.
Cui Wanqing is not in a hurry, since she can rush over, she will naturally express herself when she gets off the sedan chair after a while.
Those little tricks used to hint, Cui Wan used them well in the morning, and she often only needed a look and a meaningful sentence, and she could guess seven or eight points.
This is not taught by Mr. Kong, nor is it taught by another senior teacher, these things are all accumulated bit by bit by the cruel reality.
"Practice makes perfect, right?" Thinking of this, Cui Wanqing couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
As soon as the sedan chair landed, she saw Orange Xiang stretching out her hand to open the sedan curtain, and helped Cui Wanqing get off the sedan chair with a smile. ”
Cui Wanqing looked at her with a smile, only to see that Orange Xiang blinked twice quickly, and glanced around again, "Hey, Miss Biao, why are you swaying this way?" The servant will give you a righteousness. ”
Orange Xiang approached and took the opportunity to whisper in Cui Wanqing's ear: "Lakeside." ”
After that, this is like no one, with a smile on his face, he helped Cui Wanqing into the moon gate in the back garden.
The garden will be full of guests, noisy, full of soft voices, and dark fragrances.
Today's ladies and young ladies are mostly enjoying the flowers and scenery in the garden, the older ones are accompanying Mrs. Hou to talk in Zihe Courtyard, and the rest of those who love to listen to operas are mostly in Miaoyin Hall.
The main drama will be sung after the birthday banquet, so Mrs. Hou has not yet passed.
Cui Wanqing didn't stop in the flowery garden, and went straight to Zihe Courtyard, she had to report to Mrs. Hou first, so that the old man could rest assured, right?
The main hall of Ziheyuan is very large, there are more than 20 tables of eight immortals, and on the high platform in the south, there is an arhat couch with sandalwood carving pine cranes, which will not have the host to sit on it, but the guests are full.
Seeing that there were distinguished guests outside the door again, and there were still a lot of maid mothers around, everyone couldn't help but look at them curiously, and whispered about which one this young lady belonged to.
Orange Xiang helped Cui Wanqing into the east chamber, and Mrs. Lao Hou sat on the big kang by the window, surrounded by many noble ladies and young noble ladies.
"Qing girl, come here, your uncle is really, he has been keeping you for a long time, and he is so anxious." As soon as Mrs. Cao saw Cui Wanqing enter the door, she hurriedly beckoned.
Cui Wanqing walked up to her and saluted, and the old lady introduced her to the ladies around her, "This is the daughter of the three girls in our family, Cui Wanqing, Qing girl, hurry up and give a salute to the elders, this is Princess Cheng, this is the Duchess of Zhenguo, and this is the Marquis of Linyuan."
When the guests in this room saw it, Cui Wanqing's small waist board was sore, but fortunately, every lady gave a lot of gifts, and after this round of worship, Cui Wanqing's net worth rose in an instant.
Looking at Cui Wanqing's salute from beginning to end, it was all in order, and she didn't say anything at all, because there were many people, and it was perfunctory later.
Mrs. Linyuan Hou couldn't help but smile and praised Mrs. Cao: "At the beginning, the child of Yunsleeve was a courtesy, and now her daughter is also with her mother, look, this gift is really very down-to-earth, and he is a good child." ”
With her as a head, the praise around her sounded, and Cui Wanqing's praise was so good, and Mrs. Cao Laohou, who was happy, couldn't close her mouth, "Oh, how old is she, she can afford such a compliment, let's rest quickly, I don't have to spoil her." ”
"It's indeed a well-behaved and good boy, but after all these years, this concubine is still seeing it for the first time, which is really weird." As soon as these words came out, the room was instantly quiet.
Cui Wanqing followed the voice and looked at it, it was Princess Cheng who spoke, looking at her age, she was only in her thirties, the red ring she was wearing was green, and a melon seed face made her look younger, but the raised eyebrows and thin lips inevitably gave people a mean feeling.
This is also a strange person, and on the birthday of Mrs. Cao Laohou, in front of the host's family, she was embarrassed in public.
It's too late for others to whitewash the peace, this one is good, and he came up and slapped people in the face in a hurry!
Cui Wanqing really wanted to ask: "Are you here to celebrate your birthday?" Or are you here to make a feud with our family? ”
Mrs. Cao's face was very unsightly at that time, Cui Wanqing was not clear, the old lady knew very well, this was very close to the concubine in the palace, and today's pretentiousness was intentional.
It's just that she is a birthday star and the main family, and she has grown a lot older, so it's really hard to say heavy things to guests.
But I heard Cao Yunru say with a smile: "Princess Cheng doesn't know, my sister Qing is delicate when she is small, and she doesn't go out of the door on weekdays, and it's normal that you haven't seen it." ”
Okay, there is another one who adds oil and vinegar, this sixth aunt of her own family is really not simple, listening to what she said, every word is to excuse Cui Wanqing, in fact, under closer examination, it is an allusion that Cui Wanqing is too big, disrespectful to the elders, and very unfilial.
Delicate and sickly, those are two concepts, a word difference, a thousand miles apart.
Looking at the thoughtful eyes of the ladies in the house, Cui Wanqing knew that if today's field was not well passed, then she would not want to make any more achievements in this upper-class social circle in the capital!
