Section 423 Guests

Just as the osmanthus was fragrant, Xinyang ushered in two distinguished guests.

When Mrs. Xu, who was sitting in the county government and drinking tea with Mrs. Jiang, suddenly received a post from Yao's mother, she casually opened the post with red and gold, her eyes swept over, and her face changed on the spot.

She stood up all of a sudden and asked urgently towards Yao's mother, "What about the person who handed over the post?" Where is it now? Hurry in, no, no...... I went to ask someone to open the door of the main hall and welcome the guests to the main hall, and I hurriedly sent someone to report to the lord, and said that Lin'an had sent the wife of Lord Fan to visit. ”

Lin'an's wife who is the envoy of Lord Fan?

That's the family of the second-class master.

Yao's mother was dumbfounded when she heard this, nodded busily, and quickly turned around and went out to recruit the little maids to do their own thing, and just went to the porch to explain a few words, she heard Mrs. Xu in the house call her loudly, she hurriedly ran back to the house, and saw Mrs. Xu sitting in front of the dresser and said to her, "I want to go to greet people in person", she immediately called two little maids to come in to help.

"Ma'am, you're going to change your clothes, aren't you? Old body for you to pick a brightly colored piece? Yao's mother hurriedly ran to the wardrobe and opened the cabinet door, revealing a row of dresses.

Mrs. Jiang, who had recovered from the shock, rolled her eyes around, hurried to Mrs. Xu's back, snatched the comb from the little maid's hand, skillfully straightened Mrs. Xu's hair bun, and said while busy: "Madam, I'll help you comb it." ”

Mrs. Xu in the mirror hesitated for a moment, but caught a glimpse of Mrs. Jiang's courteous face, and finally nodded.

A moment of effort. Mrs. Xu changed into a red fairy grass pattern gown, tied a purple eight-piece Hunan skirt underneath, and wore a golden step on her head, which was magnificent, grand and luxurious, and walked out of the house quickly with the support of Yao's mother.

When she arrived at the Hanging Flower Gate, the two sedan chairs were slowly stopping.

The two Tsing Yi slaves who followed next to him stepped forward and lifted the curtain and helped out two people.

Mrs. Xu pushed away Yao's mother's hand, and smiled and hurried to meet the woman who was the leader.

"Is this Mrs. Fan?" Mrs. Xu stepped forward and saluted, and couldn't help but look at the person in front of her.

The woman at the head was about twenty-five or sixteen years old. The royal blue upper body is connected with branches. The lower body is red embroidered with eight Hunan skirts, a snow-white melon seed face, curved willow eyebrows, and big phoenix eyes. Weighing the splendid wealth all over the body. What a great beauty.

He was followed by a woman. He was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a lotus lotus-colored plum blossom turui gown, and a bright yellow embroidered heald skirt. The goose egg face, willow eyebrows, cherry mouth, and a pair of eyes are as smart as jewels, which are extraordinarily shining, and when placed on the whole face, it seems that everything else is overshadowed.

Seeing Mrs. Xu saluting, Mrs. Fan, who was the leader, took half a step and hurriedly went to support her, and said with a smile and humbly: "It is the Fan Fu Lin family, I am really embarrassed to take the liberty to visit and disturb Mrs. Fan." ”

Kind attitude, humble words, really amiable.

Mrs. Xu was flattered, welcomed her again and again, and then welcomed people into the main hall.

After sitting down, Mrs. Xu pointed to the woman next to Mrs. Fan Zhu and asked, "This ...... I don't know who it is? Look at the face is very raw. ”

Zhu smiled and glanced sideways at the beautiful woman behind him, raised his eyebrows and said: "She, is my niece, surnamed Xue, the only daughter in the family, we all call her Yuniang, born in the capital since childhood, never left the house half a step, this time in order to pray for her grandmother, specially went to Putuo Mountain to incense, and came to visit my aunt on the way back." ”

Xue Yuniang, from the capital?

Mrs. Xu couldn't help but look at her twice.

There are not many families surnamed Xue in the capital, and I don't know which one it is. When she withdrew her gaze, Mrs. Xu's heart moved.

But she immediately turned her attention to this Mrs. Fan San.

She didn't forget that the husband of Mrs. Fan San was the cousin of the Di Governor's Mansion who was escorted to Beijing, and now that she came to visit like this, she must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

She cheered up and spoke to Mrs. Fan San: "Mrs. has been in Lin'an, so it stands to reason that I should go to the house to visit, but my mother-in-law is sympathetic to the husband and specially instructed me to follow the husband to take care of life and daily life in office, so I have not returned to Lin'an to formally meet Mrs. until now, which is really rude." ”

Fan San's wife Lin smiled slightly when she heard this, and said without mind: "Mrs. said this too politely. This Xinyang and Lin'an are not far away, but they are not close, and it will take several days to go back to Lin'an, which is really inconvenient. I have seen the ladies in the house before, and I have always heard them mention you, Mrs., that you are virtuous and capable, but I have always been very curious, and today I can be regarded as seeing you. ”

After speaking, Lin looked at Mrs. Xu with a smile.

Mrs. Xu's cheeks suddenly became hot when she heard this.

Although the other party's words were politely respected, but after careful discernment, she could hear her big meaning, why did several other female relatives of the Xu family go to visit the Lin family, but she was the only one missing?

Mrs. Xu didn't understand, so she picked up the teapot to refill the tea for the Lin family, which can be regarded as revealing this topic.

What kind of person is the Lin family, naturally she will not bother with Mrs. Xu on this kind of topic, she seems to have just noticed Mrs. Jiang sitting at the end of a row of seats in the room, her eyes wandered, and she asked, "I don't know who this lady is?" ”

Mrs. Xu naturally introduced her and introduced her as the wife of the Jiang family in Xinyang, and what kind of business did the family do.

She was originally hastily brought over, after all, the Jiang family is just a merchant, and strictly speaking in front of them, there is no place to stand, if it weren't for the sudden visit of Mrs. Fan San today, and Mrs. Jiang happened to be there, she couldn't let her follow her because she couldn't drive people away, otherwise she wouldn't have let her meet Mrs. Fan San anyway.

But I didn't expect that as soon as Mrs. Fan San heard that it was the wife of the Jiang family, her eyes lit up, and she actually kindly inquired about Mrs. Jiang, and asked about the situation in the family, how many children there were, how old they were, and whether they were allowed to marry anyone......

Unavoidably.

Mrs. Jiang was flattered, and of course came one by one.

Mrs. Xu was secretly surprised by the side, and when her eyes wandered, she caught a glimpse of Mrs. Fan's niece looking at Mrs. Jiang intently, as if there was something strange on her face that attracted her attention.

But a half-old is not from a rich and noble family, how did she get Miss Xue's attention?

Mrs. Xu's heart kept beating the drum, and she always felt that Mrs. Fan San appeared inexplicably and came prepared.

When he was guessing, he suddenly heard Mrs. Fan San say to everyone: "...... My second sister married into the Zhu family in the capital and gave birth to a son and two daughters. Some time ago, he was ordered by the imperial court to be a Jishi, and now he is in the six departments to watch the political ......" (to be continued......
