Miss Lin Er hadn't reacted yet, but when she saw her sister say this, she finally remembered who this Jin Mama was, and she also looked at Ran Qiunian with surprise and envy:

"I heard that Mama Jin lived in seclusion in the suburbs after leaving the palace, and refused to go out of the mountain no matter how many dignitaries and nobles contributed as much silver. I didn't expect to be asked by you to be a gentleman, which is so surprising. ”

Ran Qiunian didn't know that Mama Jin had such a big reputation, she only thought that Mama Jin was an ordinary upbringing mama from the palace and had served several princesses.

And a princess will be matched with at least three nurturing grandmothers, and only one can be called a teaching grandmother, and her status is similar to that of a half-teacher. Mama Jin has taught two generations of princesses, and her status in the palace can be imagined.

"I don't know that."

Ran Qiu told the truth, thinking that since Mama Jin had never mentioned these old things to herself, she just didn't know about it.

After thinking about it, she asked the Lin sisters again: "I didn't know these reasons before, so in this way, without Mama's consent, I can't disclose Mama's whereabouts at will." I want to keep it a secret for me to learn from Mama Jin. ”

The sisters of the Lin family are not people who like to chew the root of their tongues, and seeing the sincerity of what Ran Qiunian said, naturally there was no one who did not agree. is also because Ran Qiunian studied under Mama Jin, but she is unwilling to use this fame to make profits for herself, and she admires her very much.

A few girls were talking, and at the door of the tea house, a group of people who had been observing in the dark for a long time finally walked in from outside.

Ran Qiunian saw that the sisters of the Lin family all stood up, and it was expected that someone with a distinguished status had come, and they also stood up together.

After everyone stood still, they all greeted the group of people who walked in at the gate of the courtyard, although Ran Qiunian hadn't figured out what was going on, but he also learned from the same way.

"Don't be polite, let's go play separately, I and the ladies of the family came here to have fun, and everyone should not be restrained."

A lady standing at the front had a decent smile on her face and spoke in a gentle tone. Ran Qiunian had the opportunity to quietly take a look at the visitors.

She recognized that the person who stood at the front and spoke was the initiator of this tea party, the Duchess of Qi Guo's Mansion, and she knew this person's temperament best.

That's why I don't understand why on an occasion like today, the Duchess of the Kingdom would think of giving her this, and to say that it was ugly, it was a junior who was a merchant girl.

As for the few people around the Duchess of Guo, although Ran Qiunian didn't know them, looking at their temperament, most of them were the ladies of the family who were good friends with the Duchess of Guo.

"I and the ladies heard that someone here in the teahouse was going to learn tea art with our Qiluo girl, so we thought about coming to join in the fun, and now we are afraid that we are a step too late. Qi Luo, come and talk, what is the result of this competition? ”

The Duchess asked knowingly, and the ladies next to her did not dismantle it, and looked at each other with a smile in their eyes, all of which were kept secret.

"Aunt Qi is not timid." An Qiluo stepped forward, and after seeing the salute, he pursed his mouth, although he did not say it, but the result was self-evident.

An Qiluo's mother and Mrs. Guo are handkerchiefs, and there are many contacts between the two governments, so An Qiluo has always been close to Mrs. Guo.

"Qi Luo, this time you made a bad move, do you know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, right?"

The Duchess has always been fond of this baby bump of the Marquis of Anyang, and when she saw that An Qiluo still had a little temper on her face that had not faded, she joked.

"It's Qi Luo's carelessness, I'll study hard when I go back, and I won't lose to others next time."

An Qiluo restrained her arrogant and domineering bad temper, and her aggrieved little appearance looked delicate and lively, which made the ladies laugh and feel distressed.

Although she lost the tea art competition, she was a good means, with her understanding of those ladies and wives, she successfully turned her vexatious troubles just now into a frank and straightforward little girl's heart, not annoying at all.

Without waiting for Ran Qiunian to sit down and ask the Lin sisters which one An Qiluo was singing, the Duchess of Guo called Ran Qiunian over.

"I don't know, which daughter of the family convinced Qi Luo's girl to lose this time?"

A lady standing beside the Duchess suddenly asked, having said that, her eyes had already taken a step forward on Ran Qiunian who was not far away.

Although there was no malice in that sight, Ran Qiunian always felt a little strange.

Without waiting for her to think about it, Miss Lin had already pushed Ran Qiunian's arm first, and reminded in a low voice: "Qiunian, go, don't be nervous, it's good to be as generous and decent as just now." ”

Ran Qiunian nodded, got up and went over, and saluted the ladies. The lady who called Ran Qiunian looked at her beautiful greeting ceremony and dignified and decent temperament, and was very satisfied with her upbringing.

"This girl is a child, I heard that the General's Mansion has received a beautiful watch lady from Splendid City these days, it must be you. Child, what's your name? ”

"The younger generation Ran Qiunian, the lady praises falsely."

Without waiting for the lady to speak again, the Duchess of the Kingdom took the first step and asked casually: "I see that your gestures are all courteous, presumably your mother must also be from a big family, why didn't you enter Beijing together?" ”

Ran Qiunian's lowered eyes flashed with coldness, this is to make her report to her family, so that she can be embarrassed in front of everyone on the grounds that her biological mother died early and was not educated, and her merchant background was indecent?

The same tricks are used every time, and the methods of this Duchess are nothing more than that. But this time, Ran Qiunian would no longer be burdened by these rumors, and she replied generously:

"My biological mother died early, but fortunately I was taught by my grandmother, and the etiquette of poetry and books was never left behind."

"It's that I didn't ask well, Miss Ran forgive me."

Seeing that Ran Qiunian didn't hide her origin, although she still looked down on her, she was a little uncomfortable for a while and continued to ask questions.

However, the lady who was originally called Ran Qiu Nian, when she heard this, seemed to suddenly remember, and asked out loud: "Your grandmother is the sister of General Gu?" ”

Although she asked this question, she had actually confirmed it, but she just wanted to get a layer of affirmation from Ran Qiunian. Seeing Ran Qiunian nodding, she sighed and slowly spoke to Ran Qiunian.

"In the battle of Shangwu back then, your great-grandfather was seriously injured and did not recover, General Gu was still young, and your grandmother was not out of the cabinet at that time, but with a courage, she personally led five hundred elites to rescue the emperor who was still the third prince from the chaotic army.

Ran Qiunian didn't expect that there would be someone here who could know the story of her grandmother when she was young, and she was a little surprised.

After many years, the things of my grandmother at that time have become less and less mentioned, and even most of the Ran family don't know anything about these old things.

"I grew up listening to the elders in my family tell the story of the battle of Shangwu, and I have always longed for the female general who did not let her eyebrows, and now seeing her granddaughter is also a long-cherished wish for many years."

I didn't expect that after so many years in the blink of an eye, her granddaughter was almost at the age when she led the army. With such a grandmother, it is no wonder that Miss Ran was raised so well. ”

It turned out that this lady was also from a family of military generals, no wonder she knew much about these things.

Thanks to this lady's praise, the ladies of the family who were originally still suspicious of Ran Qiunian's background had changed their opinion of Ran Qiunian a lot.

There was even a lady who asked directly: "I wonder if Miss Ran has a good match?" ”

Ran Qiunian was asked all of a sudden, and in the face of the strange look in the eyes of the group of ladies, the suspicion that had been forcibly suppressed by Ran Qiunian just now suddenly broke out, and she hesitated to speak: "Not yet." ”

Suddenly, the eyes that hit her became even more eager, and the lady who had released kindness to Ran Qiunian at the beginning stepped forward to take Ran Qiunian's hands and said in an eager tone. Be the first to speak:

"I hit it off with Miss Ran, since Miss Ran is going to stay in Shangjing for a while, there happens to be a banquet in my house in a few days, and when I go back, I will ask someone to hand over a post to the house, and Miss Ran must come at that time."

Ran Qiunian hid his doubts and responded to them one by one with a smile.

Although there is a relationship between her grandmother and the General's Mansion, Ran Qiunian is not as despised by these family ladies as she was at the beginning, and everyone's attitude is indeed kinder, but it is rare to be as enthusiastic as this lady.

After Ran Qiunian finished dealing with these ladies, she turned around and went back to the Lin sisters, and when she saw their playful eyes, she asked in a low voice with a smile:

"Tell me which one is singing today, isn't it a tea party between noble ladies? Why are there so many ladies of the family, I was a little confused. ”

Miss Lin Er glanced at Ran Qiunian strangely, and saw that the puzzled look in her eyes was not fake, so she asked in disbelief:

"You really don't know? At today's banquet, the ladies of all families get together to show their talents and compare their talents. And these ladies are secretly watching, for what, you really can't guess? ”

Ran Qiunian had a bold guess in her heart, she looked around and saw that the people who came today were indeed some noble girls of the right age.

Even An Qiluo, who had the worst temper, was honestly there. Even if he was robbed of the limelight by himself just now, he was jealous and hateful, and he didn't make a fuss on the spot.

Seeing Ran Qiunian looking over, An Qiluo just glared at her hatefully, turned around, and didn't see it.

Only then did she realize that the tea party held today was fake, and the blind date conference held in the name of the tea party was real.

Looking at the eyes of these ladies from various provinces looking at their daughters-in-law, Ran Qiunian suddenly had a black line on his face, and finally understood why he received an invitation from the Duke of Qi. I'm afraid that all the school-age ladies in the capital have received this post.

No wonder Na An Qiluo was so hostile when she saw herself, and after losing to herself, her expression was clearly about to pounce on her and eat her, but she could endure it and avoid it to the side.

She thought it was because the Lin sisters oppressed people by seniority that she was like this, but the result was ...... It was she who looked up to An Qiluo.

"I really don't know, it's hard to make it happen, the two sisters are also here......"

Ran Qiunian was a little speechless, with a little embarrassed red on his face.
