34. Congratulations on birthday

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Mrs. Xu's 70th birthday.

Qianqian got up early in the morning to freshen up and change clothes, painted eyebrows and powder, applied grease and wiped lips, and picked out a set of clothes with patterns and fabrics that were the most fashionable. When the whole person dressed up and went to Miao Fan, he was stunned.

After he noticed the loss of consciousness and stabilized his mind, he quickly asked, "Where is this going?" ”

Qianqian took the gold invitation card and shook it in front of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Go and pay a birthday to the old lady of the Xu family, you can come with me." ”

Miao Fan suddenly recalled what Feng Sheng had told him about buying a post, and frowned: "Did you buy an invitation?" ”

"I didn't buy it." Qianqian opened his mouth to deny it, and even looked disdainful, "I won't spend money in vain." ”

Miao Fan was puzzled: "Where did that post come from?" ”

"It doesn't cost money anyway." Qianqian urged him, "Let's hurry up and go out, otherwise it will be too late." ”

Miao Fan held her hand and admonished her solemnly: "If you worship your birthday to have a friendship with Lord Xu, I won't go." ”

Stay monk!

Qianqian secretly slandered herself, and pretended to be angry on the surface: "Where do you want to go!" Am I the one who climbs the dragon and the phoenix like this? It's really just a birthday greeting, I ...... I had a relationship with Mrs. Xu, she was an old man's birthday, and it was right for me to congratulate her. Oh, you just believe me, it's really not to have a relationship with the surname Xu! ”

In fact, she didn't lie to him, this time when she went to Xu's mansion, the invitation was really not bought, it was imitated by Master Lu, and she really didn't plan to be close to Master Xu, so it was best not to see it. She can't talk about her plan now, otherwise she won't scare the little monk to death!

She swore and swore to promise again and again, and Miao Fan went out with her suspiciously. Master Lu had already hired two soft sedan chairs at the entrance of the alley, Ah Piao yawned as usual, his eyes were red and he probably gambled all night, he was dressed like a little scholar, and a cloth towel on his head looked very funny. And Xiaohe is a maid, and she is still holding a long box in her hand, which probably contains scrolls and other things.

Seeing this, Miao Fan asked, "What is this?" ”

Xiao Lotus replied without changing his color: "Birthday gift." ”

Qianqian secretly gave a thumbs up to the little fat girl behind his back: Good answer! There is growth!

Xiaohe quietly threw Qianqian a smug look: That's nature.

As the saying goes, do a line of love and love a line, since she has done this business, no matter how clever her brain is, she has to practice, at least she must not blush and her heart beat when telling lies.

Seeing the two singing and fooling Miao Fan, Ah Piao couldn't help beating his chest and shouting: "Open your eyes and tell nonsense, my poor son!" ”

Where will Qianqian, a femme fatale, give gifts to others? She has always scraped off the other party's three layers of skin, okay!

Qianqian glared at him warningly, vicious. Frightened, Ah Piao hurriedly covered his mouth and silenced.

Wishing a birthday gift, Miao Fan thought about it and it was reasonable, so he didn't say anything more and obediently got on the sedan chair. Qianqian then shook the fan to half-cover her delicate face, and also got into the sedan chair.

"Get up." Master Lu still acted as a housekeeper, standing by the sedan chair and giving an order, the sedan chair drivers lifted the sedan chair and staggered to Xu's mansion.

The courtyard of the Xufu Kuan Mansion looks so angry from the outside, and at this moment the lights are lit up in front of the door, and the two stewards are here to greet the guests, check the invitation, and only release it after it is correct.

A hundred and ten steps away from the gate of Xu's mansion, as soon as Qianqian got off the sedan chair, Xiaohe pulled her sleeve: "Girl, look." ”

Qianqian looked in the direction she signaled and saw "Mr. Chen", the person who wanted to sell the post to her and Feng Sheng that night. Sure enough, it's a subordinate of the Xu Mansion!

Xiaohe was a little worried: "Will he recognize us?" ”

Qianqian pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then suddenly put down the fan covering her face, and smiled proudly: "Originally, I was afraid that this level would go wrong, but now it seems that it is good to have him, you come here, if he dares to embarrass us, you say ...... like this."

Xiaohe leaned over, she whispered a few words of advice, and then the group walked calmly to the door of Xu's mansion.

The two stewards of the Xu Mansion, Steward Zhao and Steward Chen, one is responsible for checking the name post, and the other is responsible for checking the guest list.

Master Lu handed over the invitation and the name post, and after Steward Zhao looked at it, he hurriedly handed over his hand to greet: "It turned out to be the mansion of Lord Lin in Xuzhou, and it was disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Master Lu also returned the salute with a fist: "Lord Lin is busy with official business and can't get out of it, so he specially sent Miss and Uncle to celebrate the old lady's birthday." With that, he pointed to Miao Fan and Qianqian.

Steward Zhao looked over, and the handsome man and the beautiful woman stood in one place, eye-catching and matching. He looked back at Steward Chen, meaning that he still had to check the list, and then chatted with Master Lu: "I heard that there is a big case in Xuzhou Mansion?" ”

Master Lu said: "This matter is a joke in our local area, and it is not a big case. He briefly told the king about the evil and scattered wealth outside the king, and it should be regarded as a joke. Steward Zhao saw him talking eloquently, and did not doubt his identity, and after a while, he turned around and urged, "Did you find it?" Guests are still waiting, you move fast! ”

Steward Chen, that is, Mr. Chen, looked through the roster in his hand and couldn't see the name of Lin Geng of Xuzhou Mansion, although he also knew that Lord Lin Dao was indeed a person, but he didn't know how much friendship Lord Xu had with Lord Lin. He went through the roster again, but still couldn't find it, and he was a little puzzled.

Did you not invite Lord Lin at all, or was the roster registration missing......

"Still haven't found it yet? Let me show you how. Seeing him look up and hesitate, Xiaohe hurriedly walked over, pretended to look at the roster, and whispered: "Three hundred and twenty-one, have you forgotten?" ”

Steward Chen was taken aback, raised his eyes to look at Xiaohe, and felt very familiar. In a flash of light, he remembered, "You...... You didn't buy it! He lowered his voice, unable to hide his anger.

Xiaohe smiled slightly: "You are not the only one who sells posts, Xu Mansion is so big, and there are so many people, you are smart and can think of ways to make money?" If you let us in, everything will be easy to say, but if you embarrass us, it will be a big deal to break up, and I will tell you all these things, and everyone will be ruined. ”

This startled steward Chen was confused. He did take advantage of the time when the house was making posts, and secretly hid two to sell, thinking that there would be many guests, and one or two strangers would not be found fishing in troubled waters, and he was responsible for verifying the roster, and he would let him go when the time came. But he didn't count it out even if there were other people in the mansion who also planned to do this! Come to think of it, how can others not be blushing at such a good deal? So who the hell is he who has the same idea?

Steward Chen glanced at Steward Zhao, who was having a good conversation with Master Lu.

"Isn't it here! Xuzhou Lin family, Zhizhou Lord Mansion. Xiaohe pointed to a place on the roster and looked at Steward Chen with a smile, his eyes unblinking.

Steward Chen closed the roster and nodded at Steward Zhao, so the family members let him go.

He can't be sure of the background of this group of people, but if his selling posts is shaken out, the consequences will be unimaginable. So he turned a blind eye and let these people get away with it.

After entering the Xu Mansion, the male guests and the female dependents all have their own places to go. Qianqian repeatedly told Miao Fan: "Don't talk nonsense when you see people later, and don't reveal your origin, these people have a lot of eyes, so they love to calculate people, and if you don't say it, you won't be wrong, and ignore them." I said that I didn't come to make friends, so you don't have to be close to Lord Xu, and I know that you won't. But if you meet a young master with a similar temperament to you, you can talk to them about poetry and chess, pass the time, in short, take care of yourself, I will go to see Mrs. Xu, and I will come back to you when I am done. Got it? ”

After practicing in the temple for many years, Miao Fan knew that he was not familiar with human accidents, and she kindly reminded him, and he was very taught: "I know the way." I'm waiting for you to come to me. ”

There is a theater in Xufu, and the troupe has already sung at this time, and it is a "Magu Birthday", and you can hear the babbling and singing from afar. The maidservant of the Xu family led the way to the theater, Qianqian and Xiaohe followed her through the verandah, and when they passed by the water pavilion, they vaguely saw someone behind the veil, their bodies overlapping and entangled, probably doing obscene things.

The maidservant seemed to be accustomed to it, and did not say a word, but only walked, but quickened her pace.

Xiaohe covered his eyes, angry and angry: "What's the blue sky and the white day...... It's disgusting, I'm going to have a needle's eye. ”

Qianqian also caught a glimpse and said, "Bow your head, don't look around." ”

At this moment, there was a slap in the water pavilion, and then a woman began to cry.

I only heard a man beating and scolding: "Stinky! You are still not happy to ask you to serve the master, who will you show with a sad face? See if you don't kill you! Slut! ”

There were a few more sounds of skin and flesh being whipped, the woman cried and cried, and crawled out of the water pavilion with a rolling belt, only wearing a belly pocket on her body, and her arms and back were covered with green black pinchmarks, she swept in front of Qianqian's eyes as if she was fleeing for her life, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Then a man chased him out, holding a horsewhip in his hand, with a fierce expression and swearing.

Qianqian looked at it intently, and thought that it was really a narrow road, and this guy was the little overlord Xu Guang.

"Little hooves still dare to run, wait for the master to catch you back, you will suffer!"

He threw the whip hard, spat it on the ground, raised his eyes and saw several women standing on the side, and casually pointed to the servant girl who led the way: "You come here to serve the master." ”

The maid was so frightened that her legs weakened, she knelt down and kowtowed, and said tremblingly: "Back to the young master's words...... Slaves and maids, slaves and maids have to take distinguished guests to meet the old lady, no, they can't serve you......"

Xu Guang's eyebrows rose when he heard this: "You're not happy?!" ”

"No, no...... No, it's ...... The slave and maid will also take the distinguished guest to ......" said that the maid herself had no confidence, and she trembled with fear, as if she was sifting chaff.

Guest?

Xu Guang seemed to remember that today was his grandmother's birthday, and he set up wine at home to entertain him. He turned his face to look at Qianqian, and suddenly his heart was tickling like a cat's paw.

Ouch, whose little lady is this so peugeot?
