The servants I saw along the way were also extremely well-behaved, and their expressions, movements, and postures were impeccable.

Zhu walked beside Fu Yingying, and asked in a low voice, "Yingying, which nobleman's residence is this?" ”

"See the fame?" Fu Yingying tilted her head, and the corners of her eyes saw the expressions of all the people in her eyes, and she only wanted to daxiao three times to be happy.

Don't think I can't see what you're thinking, don't you just look down on the Xia family? This time, I am afraid that the invitation to come has nothing to do with face, and it is all to show off in front of her, right?!

I hope that in front of autumn, you can still show off.

Zhu glanced at her with disgust, "You did it on purpose, right?" Say, don't tease me. ”

"It's useless to tell you whose house it is, you'll know when you meet someone."

As he spoke, the group turned a corner, and two maids were waiting on the long hand-copying verandah, and after saluting, they were solemnly hand-in-hand, "Mrs. has prepared refreshments in the flower hall and is waiting for everyone, please come here." ”

I don't want to look too shabby, although Xia Hanqiu is still white today, and it looks similar to cloth clothes, the material is by no means something that ordinary people can afford to wear.

She herself knows that her current insistence has completely changed under the interference of her mother and Changzhi, but she is used to wearing those simple clothes, and she really doesn't want to change them, as long as she is not allowed to wear those complicated clothes with an obvious aristocratic taste, she will go with them.

Mingde came in and reported, "Madam, the guest is here." ”

Xia Hanqiu got up, today, she is the protagonist. This beginning is crucial, whether there can be a haode beginning, it all depends on how she performs today.

Breathing deeply all the way out, Xia Hanqiu had completely calmed down when she walked to the door, and she waited at the door before she went out.

When the group approached, they were a little surprised when they saw her.

When they heard the maid say that they were going to see an older woman, they didn't expect that the woman was indeed a woman, but she was too young.

Such a person. Many of them were invited with great fanfare. What is going on?

"In the name of Yingying, please come, please forgive me for any inappropriateness, please take a seat."

Fu Yingying smiled and took the lead in sitting at the end, "My task is complete." This one went back and forth and I was hungry. These pastries are just enough to fill my stomach. ”

"You can't do without you. I asked someone to make soup for you, Ah Jiu, you go and bring it to her. ”

"Yes."

This is all too commonplace. The scene that should have been serious was disrupted, and the atmosphere suddenly loosened a lot.

Xia Hanqiu gave Yingying a grateful look and cheered up to face the next thing.

"I wonder what is the matter with Madame waiting for me?"

"It's something, it's still a very interesting thing." Xia Hanqiu smiled lightly, "Everyone look at each other, do you think you have something in common?" ”

Zhu felt that this situation was really a bit strange, and he was wary of this person who didn't know the details at all, and spoke less politely, "What this lady says in common means that we are all women?" ”

"That's kind of it." Xia Hanqiu paused, "But I was negligent and forgot to introduce myself, my name is Xia Hanqiu, my husband's surname is Zheng, if you don't dislike it, you call me Mrs. Zheng." ”

Qi and Zhu were handkerchiefs, knowing that she was anxious and didn't want her to become a bird, so she took over at this time, "I don't know what Mrs. Zheng means when she says something interesting." ”

"This has to go back to the previous question, what do you have in common."

Xia Hanqiu is really not used to talking like this, in fact, in the final analysis, she doesn't have much contact with people, even if she wants to learn how to speak around the corner, she really can't learn it, so she just let it go, "I haven't learned the way to speak in a roundabout way, so let's just say it, I hope my next words won't scare you." ”

The atmosphere is better," said Madame. ”

Ah Jiu came in quietly with the soup, took out a bowl and put it in front of Fu Yingying, all the movements were silent.

Xia Hanqiu looked at it, and felt that the words that were not easy to say came out smoothly, "What I say you have in common means that you are all assertive and capable people, and I need a group of such people to work together, the so-called ...... working together."

Fu Yingying's action of drinking the soup stopped, she didn't know what Qiu would say, not only to make those people's hearts move, but also not to make them think that she was daydreaming.

After a pause of just a few breaths, Xia Hanqiu continued: "I know that you are all literate, I don't know if you usually like to read? ”

Some nodded, some shook their heads, and some didn't respond.

"If you love to read, have you ever flipped through the history books?"

One hesitated and answered, "I read history books, but I only read stories, not historical facts." ”

"Have you ever seen the story of the Wu Dynasty?"

"Coincidentally, what I see the most is the story of the Wu Dynasty, for me, only the story of that dynasty is worth seeing, any dynasty other than the Wu Dynasty is to sing praises to men, women are useless, but the Wu Dynasty is not, it is a dynasty where men and women have their own strengths and weaknesses."

This breakthrough was chosen so well, Xia Hanqiu's heart was slightly relieved, "I don't know if Miss is ......"

"My surname is Yan, and it is rumored that Miss Yan in Huiting City who can't marry is me."

Fu Yingying couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of soup, and wiped her face while coughing embarrassedly under the eyes of the crowd who came to her, and said after a little calmdown: "Miss Yan really doesn't need to be so humble, it's not that you can't get married, it's that you don't want to marry, I don't believe you let go out and try it, see how many people rush to ask for it?" ”

"It's a rush to get the Yan family, I'm about to become an old girl, if I really want to get married, it's just an incident, the dowry is the purpose of those people, I just recruit my son-in-law to enter the door to support the Yan family, and it won't be as they wish, the things of the Yan family are the Yan family, and no one wants to use their brains."

"If Miss Yan has the foundation to establish herself, she can support the Yan family by herself, so that no one dares to bully?"

Miss Yan's expression did not change in the slightest, "There is no free lunch in the world, but I don't dare to believe what Mrs. Zheng said." ”

Xia Hanqiu didn't care either, and turned the topic back, "Since Miss Yan knows about the Wu Dynasty, she should know that the women of that dynasty are simply different from the women of the current dynasty. ”

Miss Yan was silent.

No one knows how many times she slapped the pillow full of resentment, hating why she was not born in the Wu Dynasty, if she was born in the Wu Dynasty, who would dare to let out the rumors unscrupulously and say that they were waiting to receive the Yan family, who would dare!

"Mrs. Zheng wants to recreate the scenery of women in the Wu Dynasty?"

Xia Hanqiu looked at the person who spoke, and smiled lightly: "Think I'm delusional? ”

"What is not wishful thinking? Not to mention other men, even our respective men will not allow us to come out. ”

"Why should they allow it or not?"

"They are men, they are our husbands, and they are the heavens who support the family."

"Who prescribes it? They are husbands, you are wives, and they should be equal relations, so why should your words and deeds be controlled by them? ”

yes, who prescribes it? Growing up listening to the words of the father at home, the husband in marriage, and the son in death, such a concept has grown in their minds, so that they always remember, never ask themselves for a moment, what is wrong with this, let alone trace who said it, who set the rules.

"Mrs. Zheng has such confidence, but what is the difference between Master Zheng and others?"

"He? He depends on me in everything, that is, a few years ago, I was no different from you, the same man as the sky, the same mind full of marriage from the father at home, if it were not for some other circumstances, if it were not for the connivance of the husband, there would never be such an invitation today. ”

Miss Yan stopped the others, "I have understood what Madame meant, Madam is trying to let a woman come out, I believe that there should be few women in the world who can refuse such a temptation, I don't know if Madam Zheng can say it in detail." ”

"I know a lot of things that can make you believe right away, but I can't say for the time being, I don't believe you are one of them, and the other is not yet the time." Xia Hanqiu said it very bluntly, but the more she said that, the more people believed her.

"But I also want to convince you that the twelve people here, including Yingying, were selected by me, and I will have today's invitation if I think it is appropriate, so I will tell you something the most ordinary."

After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Xia Hanqiu raised his head, his expression was still indifferent, but the self-confidence that burst out was impossible to ignore, "Liang Guo will be completely defeated in a month, Wu Guo and Yan Guo have a confrontation, Guan Guo has also made a move, and the neighbors of the southern country will definitely not watch him sit big, or jointly or separately It is very likely, the ten countries in the world will fall into war just around the corner, this is an opportunity for heroes in the world, I think, it is also an opportunity for women." ”

"Madame said that she laughed, which woman would have the courage to go to war?"

"You don't have to go to war to make a woman famous." Xia Hanqiu got up, she was a little anxious in her heart, if she could put all the chips in her hand, it wouldn't take much effort to persuade these people, but she still had a lot to say.

It's a simple thing to think about, but it's not easy to do.

"Wait a minute."

After speaking, Xia Hanqiu left a room and walked out of the house by himself.

A dozen or so people looked at each other.

Fu Yingying was just about to put down the soup bowl and take over the mess, when she heard the voice of her eldest cousin.

"I knew about this before all of you." As if he didn't feel the gaze of everyone falling on him, Meng Shi looked at the teacup in front of him and continued: "Mrs. Zheng came to me a few days ago, and she showed me something, so I believe every word she said today. ”

Meng Shi raised his head, "You don't actually don't believe it, but you can't believe it, as a woman's helplessness, I don't believe that you don't feel it in your heart, just like you can't trust Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Zheng can't trust you, so I can't say a lot of things, I have no hesitation when I came last time, think about it, it won't be worse than now anyway, right?" What if it happens? What if the woman really rolls over in our own hands? If there is a day, there are some things, why do we have to endure again, if there is a day, how can men despise us again?
