Chapter 345: The Greeting Ceremony
Meng Tang took one of them and let Bai Qingfeng come closer and said: "This is the Azure engraved inkstone from Lord Wu, I heard that he used this inkstone when he took the exam, and the father-in-law is not an expert in this area, he just wants to please a favor, I hope you can also be a blockbuster in the Autumn Entrance Examination, and get better results than Lord Wu back then!" ”
Although what Meng Tang said was light and light, the three Bai Zhihong and his wife who were present could hear that this precious inkstone was definitely not easy to come by.
I think that Lord Wu is famous for his love of inkstones, in addition to collecting famous calligraphy and paintings, his favorite in his life is the collection of precious inkstones, and it is definitely not easy to get a party that has accompanied him to participate in the examination and won the champion in one fell swoop.
Bai Qingfeng was extremely moved in his heart, and he had already knelt down on one knee and respectfully accepted Meng Tang's gift with both hands and said gratefully: "Feng'er thanks to his father-in-law!" I will definitely live up to the expectations of my father-in-law and my parents, and go all out to take the exam! ”
"Hmmm! I'm sure you can! Hurry up! Meng Tang got up and helped Bai Qingfeng.
If at the beginning, he just wanted to make his wife happy, felt that his family had a big business, status and status, and he didn't care about having more relatives, or promoting the Bai family, so he perfunctorily agreed to recognize his relatives. So, after inquiring about the Bai family's unremitting self-improvement and current achievements, it is really difficult for him to say what the future development will be.
"Thank you, father-in-law! Thank you, mother-in-law! After Bai Qingfeng got up, he saluted Liu Ruyan again.
"Good boy, excuse me!" Liu Ruyan gave a hand to the hazy figure, and then motioned for Qianrong to hand another brocade box to Bai Qingfeng Dao. "Shuang'er is not here, you can take things away instead of Shuang'er, it's just some jewelry that your daughter's family likes, you tell Shuang'er when you look back, if she likes it again, just tell me!"
"Feng'er Dai Shuang'er Xie Yima!" When he took the brocade box, he obviously felt the weight inside, and Bai Qingfeng knew that this meeting gift must be a lot.
"Alright, it's time for us to go back too, after the day is changed. I'll send someone to inform you! When the time comes. You draw up a list of relatives and friends, and you can do it together, which also saves Yao's confinement and hurts your body! Meng Tang got up and said. He still had to rush into the palace to discuss the affairs of the day with the emperor.
The emperor who almost grew up together. His temperament is even more anxious than him. If he pokes everything out early, it won't be good to change his life.
In the palace, Xu Ruixiang couldn't help but sneeze a few times. Immediately, in exchange for Xu Jingju's concern, he asked, "Father, what's wrong with you?" ”
"It's okay, it's just that my nose suddenly itches!" Xu Ruixiang waved his hand, turned his head and asked Zhou Haidao, who was waiting behind him, "Are the Nine Emperor Princes still obediently reading in the study next to him?" ”
Zhou Hai immediately replied: "If you go back to the emperor, the Nine Emperor Princes are looking at it!" ”
As for whether the young master saw it or not, he didn't know!
"Ask someone to bring him some snacks and mung bean soup, so that he can rest for a while!" Although he looked at it under his nose and said that it was a punishment, Xu Ruixiang was still reluctant to let him suffer.
Xu Jingyu only raised his eyelids slightly, didn't say anything, and continued to discuss with Xu Ruixiang about the change of guard in the capital.
Bai family, Bai Zhihong hesitated for a moment and said: "Our relatives here, let's not move!" ”
If it weren't for Mrs. Meng's request, according to the meaning of their husband and wife, as long as the two families get together for a meal and recognize each other, there is no need to make it known all over the city.
Moreover, these superb relatives of his own family, he is really worried that there will be some trouble at the banquet, and when the time comes, he will lose not only the face of his own family, but also the face of the entire Guogong Mansion.
Moreover, the big families are very complicated, not to mention that they have long heard that it is not the eldest lady in front of them who is in charge of the Guogong Mansion, but the daughter of the Ministry of Works, the second lady who was originally pointed out to the grandfather of the country as a wife.
If you lose etiquette, it will be tantamount to ruining Mrs. Meng's face.
The status of a woman who has no children and no daughters in the inner courtyard of the deep house can be seen, if it weren't for the fact that Grandpa Guo seemed to be very fond of Mrs. Meng, she must have a hard time.
Bai Zhihong has experienced the changes in his own family, and he has another opinion on the matter in the inner courtyard of the deep house, and he doesn't want to cause trouble to others because of them.
"If you don't move, it will seem that the two of us are rude, Brother Bai, you just have to invite the post, I believe they will still be able to settle down!" Of course, there are considerations for doing so tomorrow.
On that day, Liu Ruyan came to the Bai family with Bai Qingshuang, and he had already learned about the question of the old lady and the eldest lady of the Bai Mansion.
Of course, he didn't bother to come to them to find their bad luck, but he had to give his wife a long face and secretly teach them a lesson.
said so tomorrow, Bai Zhihong could only respond, and the three of them sent the couple out to leave.
Seeing the carriage of the Guogong Mansion drifting away, Bai Zhihong and Bai Qingfeng helped Bai Yao's family to enter, and the door next door quickly opened, and then the big butler Bai Fu poked out half of his head, first looked in the direction of the carriage of the Guogong Mansion, and then hurriedly walked out, and stopped Bai Zhihong with a flattering face: "Second master stay!" ”
"Is there something wrong?" Bai Zhihong paused at his feet and motioned for Bai Qingfeng to help his wife in first.
Bai Yao glanced at him, and stopped talking.
"You go in first, the master doesn't dare to do anything to me now!" Bai Zhihong dispelled Bai Yao's concerns and said.
"Yes, mother, it's a big day outside, don't hurt yourself, Dad will have his own opinions!" Bai Qingfeng also comforted.
Today's Bai Zhihong is no longer the Bai Zhihong of the past, Bai Qingfeng fully believes that he will make the best trade-off for their family.
When Bai Fu heard Bai Zhihong say this in front of him, his old face couldn't help but stiffen. But now that the second room of the Bai family has become a fragrant bait, he no longer dares to trample on it at will.
"The old lady and the old lady asked the second master to come over to talk to each other!" The muscles on his face were a little stiff, but Bai Fu still forced himself to laugh, but he didn't know that it looked even more unnatural and ugly.
Bai Zhihong frowned slightly, glanced at the direction where the carriage disappeared, and probably knew what they were looking for him.
"Let's go!" And in the name of the son of the Bai family, he can't really be ungrateful and ignore his parents, so he can only pass.
As for what to say and what not to say, he still has some autonomy.
At the same time, in the Zixiao Courtyard, Meng Guanyue stared at a potted plant outside the window with cold eyes, her beautiful face was almost distorted into shape, and after a little adjustment, she asked in a cold voice, "Did anyone send it out?" (To be continued......)
