Chapter 341: Conflict
When you have something in your heart, you can't help but get distracted when you talk and do things.
When it was about to be the auspicious time of the birthday, the grandson, granddaughter, grandson, and granddaughter of the Duchess of Jingguo appeared in the flower hall surrounded by their respective maids and mothers-in-law, this kowtow to the grandmother, and the other kowtow to the aunt, after a burst of laughter and noise, Wei Tingzhen appeared in the flower hall, and invited the ladies to move to the water pavilion in front, and said: "The water pavilion has set up a stage, and the ladies can drink and listen to the play while drinking." ”
Everyone got up and went to the water pavilion with a big smile.
Mrs. Changxinghou helped the eldest princess of Ningde very smartly, took the lead, and then turned her head to talk to Mrs. Lu: "Your lilac-colored gourd reed makeup gown is really beautiful, I still see it for the first time, it should be the new color of Jiangnan weaving tribute this year?" ”
Mrs. Lu laughed and said, "You kid, it's like honey is on your mouth, I'm not your mother-in-law, I have nothing to reward you!" ”
Mrs. Changxinghou smiled: "Look at what you said, you are happy in your heart, but it is better than rewarding me with anything." ”
Old Madam Lu smiled with the eldest princess of Ningde: "Look, you are not complimenting me. ”
The eldest princess of Ningde couldn't help laughing, and also joked with Mrs. Changxinghou: "Don't worry, the next time I meet your mother-in-law, I will definitely praise you." ”
The crowd laughed.
Dou Zhao, who was held by Mrs. Lu like a child, also laughed.
Mrs. Changxinghou said to Dou Zhao: "This is the first time that Mrs. Gongshi of England has come out to visit the door, I am used to messing around, don't take it to heart." Later, you can sit with us, so that we can serve the eldest princess and Mrs. Lu, so as not to think that I am being polite to them. ”
Treat her very kindly.
Because of the marriage with the royal family, the Marquis of Changxing has always felt that he is the first in the noble circle, but in his previous life, he didn't sweep her from the corner of his eyes, in this life. She became the wife of the prince of the British Mansion, and she was promoted by the eldest princess of Ningde, which made Mrs. Changxing look at her differently, and the first time they met, she was zoned to the range where she could speak by herself and be at the same table.
Dou Zhao just smiled and nodded, looking very low-key and restrained.
But she is the wife of the British Princess, no matter how low-key and introverted she is, her identity is there, and someone has come up to talk to her.
"Grandpa Guo's health is all good?" It was Mrs. Dongping Boshiko who stepped forward to talk to her, "Last time I sang at home. Madame wanted to serve the sick, and I didn't go, and I regretted it for a long time. ”
Dou Zhao glanced at Mrs. Dongpingbo, who was following Mrs. Dongping with her two daughters in an orderly manner, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo's body is already well, I heard from others." A few of the people from Kyoto Riyuan were present at the church meeting that day, and they sang very well, and I will definitely go when I can wait until I go back to your house to hold another church meeting. ”
Mrs. Dongpingbo because of the continuation of the string, when she goes out to socialize, she is Mrs. Dongpingbo, and she does not go out when she is idle.
In Dou Zhao's memory, she had a good personal relationship with Mrs. Xia, the aunt and grandmother of Jingguo Mansion. Presumably this is the reason, so this time the Duchess of Jingguo did her birthday, and she also brought her two daughters to celebrate her birthday!
Dou Zhao smiled and socialized with everyone, generous and decent.
Mrs. Zhang San is honored with Youyan. Laughing and jokingly helping on the side, it was important to make Dou Zhao's first appearance shine and leave a deep impression.
Dou Zhao never spoke to Wei Tingzhen, nor did he pay attention to Dou Ming.
Mrs. Zhang Er looked at it and rolled her eyes.
Wei Tingzhen didn't fight angrily. glared at Dou Ming fiercely.
Dou Ming was still thinking about adding makeup, and lowered his head. Silently walked behind everyone.
Wei Tingzhen became even more angry when she saw it, smiled and said a few words to Mrs. Guo, walked in front of Dou Ming, and whispered hatefully: "Are you dumb?" With so many people, I don't know how to come forward and say hello! Didn't you often say at home that you were raised by Mrs. Wang? How? That's how the Wang family taught you etiquette? ”
The sarcastic tone made Dou Ming's face pale, and he looked up and was about to sneer, but he saw that the ladies were turning to Dou Zhao to speak, setting off Dou Zhao as a pearl-like dignity and shining light.
A breath of turbid air blocked her chest.
Dou Zhao has married into the British Mansion, which is known as the first noble in Kyoto, why does his father still stick to her in private, as if he is afraid that she will have a bad life. She is also a married daughter, Jining Hou Mansion is far worse than the British Mansion, why didn't her father think of her?
Thinking that her father had heard about Dou Zhao's makeup from others, she felt not only tightness in her chest, but also as if she had been stabbed in her heart, which was painful. She just wanted to get away from this dreary banquet as soon as possible, and ask her father why she was treating her like this, and where was she in the mood to pay attention to Wei Tingzhen.
Wei Tingzhen was ignored by her brother and daughter-in-law like this, and a fire ignited in her heart, she grabbed Dou Ming's arm and roared in a low voice: "Talking to you?" You don't even have a tutor, do you? ”
Usually she doesn't have such a big anger, thinking that her mother-in-law is trying to make things difficult for her on weekdays, and she dislikes how her mother-in-law is not doing her best, and as a result, her mother-in-law always does something to hold her back. On an occasion like today, the two concubines' mother's family arrived early, and the third brother and daughter-in-law Feng's mother's family even came with two elders, her brother-in-law was good, and she stepped on the point not to say anything, and let her accept Feng's favor in vain, her mood was terrible, and her words and actions were hotter than before.
But Dou Ming was thoughtful and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
She shook her hand to break free of Wei Tingzhen, and quickly followed the female relatives in front of her with her back straight.
Wei Tingzhen's face sank as if it was going to rain.
She hurried after it and grabbed Dou Ming's arm again.
Mrs. Wang, who was talking to Mrs. Zhang, joked to the two of them when she saw it: "Your uncle is affectionate, what are you whispering?" ”
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look this way.
Second Mrs. Zhang's eyes lit up, she covered her mouth and smiled, and said loudly: "Sister-in-law, what can't you say in front of us?" Don't worry, although we are interested in the dowries of the two aunts and grandmothers of the Dou family, we will not talk nonsense everywhere and attract thieves. ”
Everyone laughed, and although most of them were envious and jealous, they all had a happy smile on their faces.
Wei Tingzhen didn't know why Second Mrs. Zhang said such things on such an occasion, so she responded with a vague smile.
Second Mrs. Zhang was unwilling to let Wei Tingzhen go, and said, "Sister-in-law may not know yet, right?" The Dou family added makeup to the British princess's wife, and it is said that there are more than 100,000 taels of silver? The size is orderly, presumably next time it is time to add makeup to Mrs. Hou of Jining, and when the time comes, our eldest young master will marry a daughter-in-law. The eldest lady has such a wealthy uncle and aunt out of the cabinet, but she is decent! ”
Ten or two hundred thousand taels of silver?
Wei Tingzhen's face changed greatly.
Looking at the eldest princess of Ningde, Mrs. Lu and Dou Zhao, although they were a little unhappy, they did not reprimand Mrs. Zhang for talking nonsense.
Her heart suddenly fluttered.
The eldest princess of Ningde frowned and glanced at Mrs. Changxinghou.
Second Mrs. Zhang is the daughter of the Hou Shi family in Changxing.
Mrs. Changxinghou smiled awkwardly at the eldest princess of Ningde, shouted the name of Mrs. Zhang's second wife, and said, "Only you talk a lot, if you really attract the thief, it will be you who shout." ”
Second Mrs. Zhang dared to face Wei Tingzhen in the Jingguo Mansion. Relying on the mother's family, Xinghou Mansion, Mrs. Changxinghou was not happy, where did she dare to say more, and said with a busy smile: "Isn't my sister-in-law such a good brother and sister?" He laughed at himself until everyone laughed. After entering the flower hall and leaving this matter behind, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Tingzhen hurriedly asked Dou Ming: "What the hell is going on?" ”
Dou Ming only thought of how Wei Tingzhen would compete in front of her, but he didn't think about how Wei Tingzhen subsidized Wei Tingyu and Tian's family, and couldn't help but say with a cold face when he heard the words: "My sister has always been deaf and clear-sighted, and the affairs of our Jining Marquis Mansion can't escape your eyes, let alone the Jingguo Mansion!" Then he walked away. Entered the flower hall.
The guests were all delivered, and as daughters-in-law, Wei Tingzhen and others were going to rush over to pay homage to Duchess Jingguo.
Wei Tingzhen didn't dare to delay, and whispered a few words to her personal mother-in-law. smiled and went to the flower hall with the second and third wives.
When she worshiped her birthday and came to the water pavilion with Duchess Jingguo, she disappeared Dou Zhao.
She was a little stunned.
The eldest princess of Ningde explained: "There seems to be something on the Yantang side, and someone sent someone to call her over. Said to come to the door another day to apologize to you. ”
Song Mo had a good impression of Duchess Jingguo, and felt that although he was from a noble background. Not very sociable, but their own ability is very strong, courteous and thoughtful, knowledge, since he said that there is something, it must be a very important thing, and think of what has happened in the British government in recent years, she did not think much, smiled: "I just want to take advantage of my birthday to invite everyone to have a lively time, if it is delayed on important matters, it is my sin, they have something, just go, I am happy in my heart." ”
Everyone laughed.
Dou Zhao and Song Mo had already taken a carriage to the British Mansion.
"You should call me in another quarter of an hour." She leaned on Song Mo's shoulder and said with a smile, "Since you go to pay homage to others, you have to give the birthday a glass of water, right?" ”
"I was just afraid that you would feel uncomfortable after drinking, so I called you away before Duchess Jingguo went to the water pavilion." Song Mo said unhappily, "Who only knows how to toss me when they are uncomfortable?" ”
Dou Zhao was slightly surprised.
She didn't know how she could have become like this, and when she was uncomfortable, she saw Song Mofeng sitting there reading or writing lightly, and she made trouble with him. One moment he asked him to pour himself a cup of tea, the other time he shouted what he wanted to eat, and watching Song Mo turn around her, all those shortness of chest and stuffiness would all disappear.
"Isn't there a table in the front yard yet?" She had no choice but to change the subject and asked with a smile, "You don't smell of alcohol at all." ”
"Don't you smell alcohol?" Song Mo said, "And ask me why I don't smell of alcohol!" ”
Dou Zhao smiled wryly and said, "When I go back, I'll make you gourd cakes to eat!" ”
Song Mo said angrily: "Do you smell the smell of oily smoke?" ”
Dou Zhao condensed.
Song Mo snorted, and didn't talk to Dou Zhao again along the way.
Seeing that he was about to get home, Dou Zhao couldn't help but get anxious, and said angrily: "Then what do you want me to do?" How can there be such a stingy person! ”
Song Mo got out of the carriage with a bluffed face.
Dou Zhao had no choice but to follow him into Yizhi Hall.
