In the west room of the back house, the sound of the warbler swallows, Tang Yuniang is laughing and chatting with several women, just had a meal, and heard the maid say that the atmosphere of the banquet in the front hall is warm, and it will not be dispersed in a short time.

Accompanying Tang Yuniang to eat tea and dessert were the four young ladies of Gaofu.

Among them, Tang Yuniang, who met Chen when she was a teenager, is the wife of Gao Yanyan's fourth son, that is, the youngest young lady.

Because Mrs. Gao Yanyan is old and in poor health, she is no longer very popular, so Gao Yanyan's eldest son, Gao Boyan's wife, Li, is now in charge of the family, and the four young ladies are also headed by her.

In the morning, Tang Yuniang and Chen recognized each other, she didn't know why the General Court of Literature didn't have to hide her identity, and faintly listened to the General Court of Literature saying that since she didn't fight the local tyrants, she would have a good time meeting the characters of the Shu Kingdom, and she didn't know what it meant.

So it became now, the front house has Gao Yanyu Gao Beiyuan and a few sons to feast on the Wenzong Yuan, and a few young ladies in the back house to accompany Tang Yuniang to eat.

The eldest young lady of the Gao family, Li, who is now in charge of the family, has a good face and is very cultivated, and the third young lady Li is also fine, but the second young lady Wang and the young lady Chen are a little impatient in their hearts, and they don't know what the family thinks.

During the banquet, Chen also asked about the current official rank of the General Academy.

Regarding the outside affairs, several young ladies were not very clear when they were in Chengdu Mansion, not to mention the great changes in Shu now, they have all moved to Kuizhou, away from the political center of Chengdu Mansion.

And listening to Tang Yuniang, the General Academy of Literature was a fourth-grade official.

Chen didn't say it, but he was very contemptuous in his heart, and he was still in the general hospital, it turned out that he was only a fourth-grade official, and his family was only a "North Courtyard", but he was a second-grade honor.

And this old acquaintance when he was a teenager, originally the wife of the four talents, now, has become the servant girl of the four products, although she was born beautiful, the master will most likely be used to sleep, but the maid is still a maidservant, the so-called concubine, the identity is still a maidservant, just to accompany the master to sleep, if favored, the identity is slightly higher than the ordinary maid, and the housekeeper is no different, to the old Zhuhuang, the concubine may still have some savings for the elderly, the maid can still rely on the strength to eat, but the concubine, the housekeeper, etc., will be categorically abandoned by the master to live a miserable life.

Now tasting the dessert, Chen suddenly sighed, "Sister Yuniang, I was very worried when I heard that your family was in trouble the year before last, and I was relieved to see that you are doing well now and have something to rely on, sister!" He asked again, "Wen Zongyuan must love my sister very much?" ”

The eldest young lady Li frowned slightly, although she didn't know why the family Weng ordered her husband to tell her that she wanted to come to accompany her in person and entertain the old man of the Chen family, but who was the family Weng? When he said this, he naturally had a deep meaning, and he just had to obey it.

Unexpectedly, it was the fourth wife's wife who first provoked the topic to embarrass her old friend.

Li was about to talk and play a round game, but saw Tang Yuniang said lightly: "If the general hospital really likes me, it would be good, I also hope it!" He looked as usual, and he didn't see any embarrassment or anger.

Li was slightly stunned, although this little woman was in trouble, it was really unusual.

Chen smiled: "What my sister said is that it seems that the officials of Qi State are very ......."

Li immediately frowned and interrupted her, "Sister, it's the officials of this dynasty, my sister is used to the old name, and she needs to change it urgently!" His tone was already a little unkind, and he glared at Chen with a slight annoyance.

Chen smiled: "Yes, it was my slip of the tongue." Looking at Tang Yuniang, "It seems that the officials of this dynasty are very arrogant, no, the newly appointed Liu County Commander of Yun'an County, threatened to govern my Gao family?" As he spoke, he giggled, and the second lady Wang also chuckled, obviously thinking that Liu County Ling didn't know how thick the sky was.

Speaking of this, even the big and small Li families all smiled, and naturally they all felt ridiculous.

Although the family is an old minister of the former dynasty, the Gao family has always been a famous family in this Bashu land, and the Qi people want to govern Shu, and they also have to have a good relationship with the Shu family, which is the Kuizhou assassin Shi Pei Xing, who came to visit the family on the first day of office, a small Yun'an Qipin County Order, and even threatened the family Weng, which is really funny.

Tang Yuniang didn't know the reason, so it was inconvenient to interject, so she just smiled and listened.

In this way, they chatted with each other until the maid came to report that the former Mansion General Hospital had already drunk tea and wanted to leave.

Tang Yuniang also got up.

Li was very affectionate, said a lot of polite words, and said that if the General Academy of Literature stayed for a few more days, he invited Tang Yuniang to come back to play in two days.

Chen asked his sister what was missing, originally wanted to make the maid take some rouge gouache, but then a little surprised, because Tang Yuniang closed the moon when she was a teenager, famous for her beauty, it was to see Tang Yuniang's glamorous beauty, originally didn't care much, but when she wanted to give her some rouge gouache, she was suddenly shocked, only to notice Tang Yuniang's bright red lips, white and tender face, thin eyebrows, long eyelashes, etc., although Tang Yuniang's foundation is the best, but the makeup she uses is obviously not ordinary, but she is more beautiful, and the cosmetics she uses are not ordinary, There is no comparison at all.

Chen wants to send Tang Yuniang rouge gouache words can no longer speak, but but, has already ordered the maid, is Tang Yuniang got up to say goodbye, a maid hurriedly walked in from the side door, in the brocade plate held in both hands, there are two colors of gold wing lip grease, a box of Taizhen red jade paste, a box of bright sand perfume powder, are the best rouge gouache popular among Shu noblewomen.

Tang Yuniang smiled when she saw it, and said, "This is not necessary, thank you sister, the General Academy of Literature has rewarded some good makeup powder." "Now the rouge gouache I use is from the secret of Shu Palace, but Daddy said that when it comes to Jiangling, there are better cosmetics, Concubine Hui and Zhaorong Niangniang seem to think that Daddy is blowing nonsense, but I don't know why, but I am convinced.

……

Sitting in the carriage sent to the dock by Gaofu, Lu Ning saw that Tang Yuniang was sitting very quietly, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Why are you so calm?" It's not like the Tang Yuniang I know? Your old friend doesn't feel like he has anything nice to say. ”

Tang Yuniang blinked her beautiful eyes, "Daddy wants to be like in the past, do you want to sleep with Lian'er tonight?" ”

Lu Ning was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums outside, and the street was immediately in chaos, Lu Ning lifted the curtains of the car window, but saw a team of errands passing by the carriage, and the errand officer beating the gongs and drums shouted loudly: "Fengjie County is on an errand, and idlers avoid it!" ”

Seeing this team of errand soldiers, they were heading in the direction of Gaofu.

Lu Ning was slightly surprised, and he didn't know what was going on.

When he arrived at the wharf, Lu Ning sent someone to inquire, but he heard that the Fengjie County messenger trapped Gaofu and wanted to arrest Gao Boyan, the son of Gao's family, and Gao Jiyou, the fourth son, saying that it was a sea fishing official document sent by Yun'an County.

It seems that because Yun'an County summoned Gao Boyan and Gao Jiyou several times, both of them ignored it, so Yun'an County directly issued an official document for sea fishing, that is, it was done as a thief. When the official document arrives in Fengjie County, the Fengjie County official will be dispatched to arrest people.

I seem to be missing something?

Lu Ning was a little surprised.
