Chapter 362: Banquet at Jiafu
In the carriage, the three sisters-in-law chatted.
"Third sister, what gift did you choose for Miss Jia Liu?" As soon as the car drove to the main street, Miss Qin Er couldn't wait to ask out loud.
Qin Daixin didn't speak, but handed over the box that had been prepared in the morning.
Qin Qianxin was not polite, took it and opened it, and when she saw the golden ball, her eyes lit up, "The third sister really has something good there, this thing is exquisitely made, but it is also attractive." "It's the best thing to give Miss Jia Liu for her birthday, it's both novel and interesting, and it's easy to get your hands on, so it must be able to win her liking.
For Miss Qin Er, this should be a compliment, right? However, she was a little worried, did Miss Qin Er not give up on Second Master Jia, otherwise why did she care so much about this Miss Jia Liu?
Qin Daixin gave her a smile in return and secretly looked at her expression.
As if sensing Qin Daixin's somewhat overly enthusiastic gaze, Miss Qin Er glanced up at her, then put the golden ball back in the box and stopped talking.
It seems to be a lot more cautious.
Qin Dai smiled secretly in her heart, only then did she close her eyes and recuperate, she had been thinking about Murong Jing last night, for a while she was worried that they had alarmed King Qing'an's people, and for a while she was worried that they would not be able to save the eldest prince from coming out, she had been thinking all night, tossing and turning, and she couldn't sleep until it was almost dawn, and she was tired at this time!
During this period, Lin was silent, and he didn't know what he had thought.
Talking and laughing, the carriage stopped at the gate of Jiafu. The maids opened the car door and helped the three sisters-in-law out of the carriage one after another.
As soon as the three of them stood firmly, Leng Buding heard a delicate voice in his ears: "Grandma, Second Miss, Third Miss." ”
Qin Dai subconsciously frowned, turned her head and looked, Mom! Yingxue, who is dressed up in a fancy way. Oh no, it's Aunt Peng and Miss Qin Si who are walking towards them.
Second Miss Qin's face darkened at the moment, and even the Lin family, who had always disliked shapes, frowned slightly.
Why are they here?
Peng smiled shyly, "Big sister, second miss, third miss." ”
Miss Qin Si leaned out behind Peng's and shouted, "Sister-in-law, second sister, third sister." ”
Qin Qian's heart was extremely displeased, and she asked coldly at the moment, "What are you doing here?" "Even if it's a change in temperament. No longer acts as casually as before, but Miss Qin Er is Miss Qin Er in the end, although her voice is extremely low at the moment. There was no expression on her face, but the two angry little flames under her eyes could not be concealed in any way.
Peng said: "It was the master who asked the concubine to come." ”
Second Miss Qin raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Why didn't I know that my father actually asked about the inner house? ”
Peng said: "The concubine has not been in good health recently, and the master is afraid that I will get sick in the house." Specially let me and the second lady come out to see the world. The implication is to come to the banquet in Jiafu.
Miss Qin Er's eyes were almost spewing fire, what kind of thing was she, a thing that didn't smell fragrant or smelly, and dared to move forward! An aunt, even if it is valued by her father, is not a glorious marriage, such a slave who casually climbs into the master's bed. What can be a good thing?
"Yo? I didn't know, but now it's your Aunt Peng in charge of this house? "Although Miss Qin Er is angry, she is also extremely face-heavy. At the moment, a few people are standing in front of the gate of Jiafu, and it is not appropriate to make too much noise, "Stuffy and sick?" Ha? I don't know how many illnesses Aunt Peng had when she was a slave before? ”
"You ......" Aunt Peng didn't expect Qin Qianxin to even have a hard time with Qin Congwen's face, and she would be so sarcastic. For a while, I only felt that my face was pale, and all kinds of humiliation came to my heart at once.
Miss Qin Si took advantage of the unpreparedness. Quietly tugged at her sleeve.
Aunt Peng didn't have time to digest her feelings, so she stiffly changed out an aggrieved expression, "Second Miss, if you want to blame me, don't blame the master, he has always felt sorry for you, but the concubine's body is really bad recently, so this is ......"
"I don't need to say this, I naturally know." Miss Qin Er interrupted her words at the moment, and said: "I am my father's daughter-in-law, he doesn't hurt me, can he still hurt those little hooves?" She looked at Peng with her eyes, and the meaning was self-evident.
Aunt Peng was so angry that she almost fainted, but when she thought of today's event, she had to endure it quietly and didn't dare to say anything again.
Miss Qin Er said loudly: "Fourth sister, you are a serious lady in our house, although you are a concubine, but you are the master, what does it look like to hide behind the slave and maid timidly?" If you are coming, go with us. ”
Qin Daixin was almost about to applaud Miss Qin Er's appearance, and the former Miss Qin Er would never be able to say this.
Qin Ruoxin walked out from behind Aunt Peng, there seemed to be water in her eyes, and she said, "It's good that my sister doesn't dislike me." ”
Qin Qian said casually: "I don't dare, my sister gave birth to a delicate heart, and the room trained a person like Peng's who knows cold and hot to serve his father, how can I dislike you?" ”
Miss Qin Si hated to death in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, and she pretended to be extremely submissive and didn't speak.
Qin Daixin just watched the excitement from the sidelines, but she didn't expect Miss Qin Er to scold people so well, neither with dirty words but also on the tip of people's hearts, she really became a lot smarter.
At this moment, the people from the gatehouse of Jiafu came this way.
They have been standing here for a long time, and they have attracted the attention of the people of Jiafu, and at this time, several carriages came one after another in front of Jiafu, and the front of Jiafu, which was still empty, suddenly became lively.
"A few ladies, young ladies, the banquet in the house has been prepared, and a few people are invited to enter the mansion and talk about the banquet."
The people in Jiafu are all human spirits, and they must have faintly heard the conversation of a few people, and they were afraid that they would not look good if they made trouble in front of the door, so they found a reason to invite a few people in first, otherwise how could there be a banquet at this time?
Lin nodded at the man before saying, "Please lead the way." ”
Only then did everyone stop arguing, and a group of mermaids entered the house, and took the personal maid to let the person who led the way to the inner courtyard.
In the good season of May, Jiafu is a scenery of southern landscapes, not to mention the patchwork rockery pavilions and corridors, water pavilions and pavilions, and the branches are graceful. The flowers are full of flowers, and it is enough for people to be dazzled.
Lin is a daughter raised in a scholarly family, since she was a child, she knows the rules of walking and lying down, although the scenery along the way is rare, but she does not squint, walks in front with her head held high, and even the maid who leads the way on the side also secretly praises.
Looking at the three young ladies of the Qin family, although they are the daughters of merchants, they have a lot of rules from elementary school, and they often follow Fang Wanru in and out of some mansions. Participated in a lot of banquets, it was this Jia Mansion, and it was not the first time that several people came. Therefore, their rules are all good, even if they see something new, they are all generous. Several people are not very old, and they all have a bit of innocent and lively temperament, but people can't make mistakes.
Only Peng's. She was born as a slave maid, and she followed Qin Ruoxin's unpredictable master, so she had long developed the habit of cowering, although she was now raised as an aunt, she had never seen anything in the world, let alone the garden that cost tens of thousands of taels to arrange. She's never seen it.
So compared with the Lin family and his party, the Peng family was a little unable to do anything, not only did he look around from time to time. Occasionally, there was a look of envy and jealousy in his eyes, and occasionally when he saw one or two surprises, he would widen his eyes, and he almost exclaimed.
Qin Ruoxin watched her every move, and secretly said that the mud couldn't support the wall.
The maid led a group of people into the garden. I saw that this place is extremely open and surrounded by lush trees. There are pavilions and pavilions in the distance, below is a chiseled artificial lake, the lotus flowers on the lake are in full bloom, a large piece of lotus leaves floats on the water surface, a winding covered bridge stands on the surface of the lake, the end of the covered bridge is a small pavilion to rest, the willows on both sides of the lake shore are in rows, the branches hang on the water surface, it is a scene again.
The garden is close to a hundred flowers, pavilions, stone tables and chairs are readily available, on which are placed exquisite refreshments, fruits, dried fruits and other food, all with a good open high foot glass plate, not far away set up a high platform of about one meter, covered with red carpets, curtains and other things, it seems that the troupe was invited.
Several noble ladies were talking about something together, and the little girl stepped forward and said loudly: "Grandma, several ladies from the Qin Mansion are here." ”
Zhang turned around, glanced at the distance, and when she saw Lin's eyes, she hurriedly told the women who were talking, and got up to greet her.
"I can see you, are you okay? How could you be so careless? I see that your complexion is okay? Is there any tonic for tonics? As soon as they met, Zhang affectionately took Lin's hand and spoke, and said a bunch of words like beans falling from the bamboo tube.
Lin gave her a salute and said busily: "Sister Lao, don't you think I'm good?" ”
Seeing that her face was ruddy and she hadn't lost much weight, Zhang Shi relieved himself and set his eyes on the other people.
"Why didn't Mrs. Qin come? But there's something you can't get away with? ”
Qin Qian thought to herself, she didn't think of my mother until this moment, and she dared to love that this grandmother of the Jia family took her sister-in-law so seriously.
She was unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, but gave Zhang a salute, and said: "Grandmother, one of her old sisters' birthday, but unfortunately my grandmother is not in good health and can't go, so she asked my mother to represent her and prepare a gift." ”
The Zhang family was almost impressed by Miss Qin Er, and praised it.
Immediately afterwards, Miss Qin San and Miss Qin Si met Zhang's separately.
These two really impressed her.
Qin Daixin doesn't need to say much, Zhang has always thought that such a woman is more than enough for her confused uncle, but she didn't dare to say this in front of Mrs. Jia, no matter how bad her son is, it is not comparable to her daughter-in-law, besides, her uncle is really not counted, talented and good-looking, but he is a little bit more Meng Lang. Mrs. Jia nagged from time to time, saying that if the daughter of the Qin family could marry, she would be married, and Zhang knew her mood, on the one hand, she was very satisfied with the girl's appearance and quality, and on the other hand, she felt that her background was worse, and the contradictory mood was extremely uncomfortable.
Or did she say it a few times in front of Mrs. Jia, it was nothing more than saying good things for Qin Daixin, saying how she looked and what her temperament was, and finally added a sentence "Even the eldest princess said that she was good" and stopped talking more, Xu is words worked, Mrs. Jia's mood of suffering from gains and losses has improved a lot, and she has never said such things again in recent times.
As for this fourth young lady, Zhang's eyes sank, she had to send someone to keep an eye on it, but don't let what happened last time happen.
Zhang greeted Qin Daixin warmly, and greeted Miss Fourth lightly, and his eyes fell on Peng, who had combed the woman's head.
"This is ......"
