Chapter 307: The Four Girls Were Wronged
On this day, Jiang Erye's mansion, the porter came to report: there are distinguished guests in the house, and the car has arrived outside the main gate.
Mrs. Xu never imagined that the Duchess of Guo would come to the door in person one day. At the beginning, this noble daughter in the clan, let alone sit down and talk, it was difficult to see each other.
"Madame, please have tea." In the end, I have spent some time in the Seven Girls' Mansion, I have seen the world, and I have also served tea in front of the prince. This time, the Duchess came to visit, and Xin Zhi was a little restrained, but the rules were not bad at all.
Xu Shi was also relieved to see that the maids in his house behaved decently. After all, the seventh girl is going to marry in the future, she is a mother, she can't help anything else, and she still has to earn money for the seventh girl.
"It's all family." The Duchess of Guo was not so warm on her face, but her tone was very gentle. She was originally born in the Hou Mansion, and when she was young, she was well educated by the noble daughters of the family, coupled with the bearing raised in the Zhao Guogong Mansion, she was noble and should not be underestimated.
Xu smiled politely and agreed, a little confused about the meaning of the Duchess of Guo. It stands to reason that the Gu family married the Jiang family, and she later heard from Jiang Yu that this matter was Zhao Guogong's idea. As for the Duchess of Guo, Xu secretly thought that he was unwilling to change her.
In the flower hall where the guests were entertained, the Duchess seemed to be in good spirits, looked around, and took a sip of tea. "Maybe you don't know, you and I met in the early years. At that time, it was still at your aunt's house, and you and your aunt took the girl and kicked the shuttlecock in the courtyard. The shuttlecock is in the air, like a living bird, spreading its wings and fluttering, playing all kinds of tricks. I was dazzled and applauded. You're so handsome. I just stood and watched from a distance for a while, and then I was led back to my house by my ancestors. ”
Xu couldn't help but be surprised, something he hadn't figured out for many years was suddenly reminded by someone, as if he had touched some shadows.
At the beginning, the clan intended to select a girl with good appearance and good talent, and sent her to the south of the Yangtze River to marry and win people's hearts. Based on Xu's appearance alone, among the twenty or so clan girls who are either slender and beautiful, or have a solid family background, they are not outstanding. But in the end, among the three people selected in the bird's screen, there was a seat for her.
When you say this, the old slave remembers it. At that time, you were still boasting in front of your ancestors: the little girl of the thirteenth uncle's family, she looks good when she laughs. Mother Shan, who was standing behind the Duchess of Guo, looked at Mrs. Xu's side as if she had nothing. On the one hand, he responded to the peace, and on the other hand, he was acting like a play, and he hinted heartily: If there is no wife of her family, where will the Xu family come today.
Xu Shi was shocked, what he just thought was really fulfilled. According to the usual practice, the daughters in the clan are matched with people who also have heads and faces, and they are concubines. There are many princes and sons in Beijing, and you can imagine how powerful the backyard is dumping.
The Xu family fell into the middle of the road, and his parents died early. In addition to the three sisters, there is only one younger brother who has been sick and weak since childhood. Such a family background is not stunning in itself, and it can be described as wishful thinking if you want to gain a foothold in the back house of the powerful family.
So he was able to marry into a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River and make a side room for the county guard, so that he could also help make up for some families, and the Xu family was very happy in his heart. will serve Master Jiang more attentively.
After Ji's death, she was helped by Lord Jiang to become the second housemother of the Jiang family. He is also in harmony with Lord Jiang's husband and wife, and his children are all well-behaved and sensible.
This marriage, for the Xu family, can be said to be incomplete, and everything is really satisfactory. Today, I learned that I had inherited the love of the Duchess of the Kingdom, and Xu hurriedly got up and sincerely thanked him.
The Duchess glanced at her mother, as if she blamed her for being too talkative. Only then did he smile lightly and pulled Xu to sit down. "What is this? It's not for no reason. At first, it was just a casual remark. After that, he turned to the relationship between the prince and the seventh girl.
"A few days ago, there was no life in the capital, and the Guogong Mansion was almost in trouble. Fortunately, now that the rain has passed, only the ...... leg of the son of the world is revealed. Xu Shi hurriedly comforted her, she only found out recently, and she was angry with a few small ones in her heart, and they actually carried her behind her back and concealed such a big thing.
Now that the family matter has been decided, the Xu family is naturally worried about the injury of the son. After all, that person is the seventh girl's future dependence, and the Xu family really cares about him as half a son. Whenever the seventh girl had to go back to the house to visit, the Xu family would always ask her to bring back the bone broth that had been stewed early to replenish the body of the prince.
Xu's change like this, the seven girls are happy in their hearts, where is there reluctance. In front of Xu's family, the seventh girl opened and closed her mouth, all of which were how the person appreciated his face and used more than half of the bone broth. How did you tell her to remember to thank Xu when she came back. Turning back, he changed in front of him, and the seventh girl was another set of rhetoric. How Mrs. Juju cared about him, more attentive than her own daughter, she looked sad.
Her trick, Xu and that person, both understand, but tacitly understand, no one will break it. The seventh girl will be a person, between the Xu family and him, playing oily, passing on the good, and hiding the bad.
was rubbed and rubbed by her like this, and the relationship between the family naturally got closer and closer.
Xu thought in his heart that the prince treated his daughter well, and it was natural for him to come to the Guogong Mansion, so he was more sincere.
But immediately after the Duchess Guo's words, Xu Shi was stunned. I finally figured out what the purpose of this noble man was here today.
"I'm not afraid of your jokes, the son of the world has been disobedient to family discipline since he was a child, and he met his father, but there is no place to say it, the father and son are always tense and unhappy. I'm still recuperating from my injuries right now, and I don't know what to do. Yesterday, I sent a letter to my family, saying that I asked the grandfather of the country to send someone to tell the government that there was no need to prepare a concubine for him. Listen, what kind of bastard are you talking about? The children of Yanjing, not to mention the Zhaoguo Mansion, are ordinary official families, which family does not have a concubine? If he really acted mischievously, this matter fell into the eyes of others, and those who didn't know it thought that the girl's family didn't know about it, and they were pointed at for nothing. ”
The prince asked Zhao Guogong to send someone to Jiang's house to spread the word, but it was the Duchess of Guo who came. In this matter, she does not hide it, and she can't hide it. The only thing that should be said, she is clear and clear.
On the day of the wedding, whether this is a concubine or not, whether it is out of the heart of the prince or the girl of the Jiang family. She only thinks of one thing: The reputation of the Jiang family's daughter, Xu, you weigh it, if not? If you don't know how to be a girl, you can't live for most of your life, and you can't be a mother.
The Duchess of the Kingdom made a good calculation. She can't control her own son, this princess who has not entered the door, has the protection of the prince, and there is no room for her to interfere. If you are poor, you will think about change, so you have to find the door and find the Jiang family's reasoning.
Back then, she was the one who lifted the Xu family, but now she is more tolerant and allows the seven girls to enter the door. If the Xu family wants to teach his daughter badly and instigate the son of the world to do such unruly things, he will be ungrateful and make the world laugh in vain.
The Duchess of Xiangguo visited the Xu family, and the news reached the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and the man frowned. The seventh girl, who also got the letter on the side, looked at him silently without saying a word.
With her appearance, his eyelids jumped, rubbed his eyebrows, and beckoned his grandson to come to see her.
He said that Gu Zhen and Gu Tong were two, and they were not happy. Ask your mother to go home. ”
Gongsun couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard his order. Shizi's hand is really ...... The four girls were wronged.
Gu Zhen? The seventh girl felt that this name was very familiar. Think about it carefully, isn't it his sister-in-law? For Gu Tong, eighty percent of them are girls from the Guogong Mansion. Thinking about this stubble, the corners of the seventh girl's mouth twitched, and while she was aggrieved for the fourth girl, she had to admire this person.
When his words were in front of her family, they reached the ears of the Duchess of Guo, how could the Duchess still sit still. Gu Zhen really had a quarrel with someone, and she, as a mother, couldn't rest assured and hurried back. Even if the Duchess of Guo was suspicious, but a moment ago, she was still openly and secretly, accusing the Xu family of not teaching her daughter. At this time, it suddenly broke out that the two girls in the Guogong Mansion were not harmonious, and there was an awkward quarrel, and the Duchess couldn't erase it on her face, so naturally she would not stay any longer.
After Gongsun retreated, the seventh girl covered her mouth and smiled at him.
"Don't pretend to be aggrieved?" He tapped her forehead, and his eyes were warm and conniving.
*********
The two families are married, and the door is not right, and there are always some bumps. In the face of friction, the seven girls are gentle and flattering at both ends. As for the son, that man has always been less nonsense, and he acts neatly and unexpectedly.
This is to make up for yesterday, and there is still a change, so it should be very late. Folks, we'll see the same thing tomorrow.
