Chapter 206: Humble Summer Garden
Feng Tao sat down on the chair, picked up a peach from the fruit bowl and nibbled on it: "When I went out, I passed by the dark fragrance house, and when I heard movement inside, I looked in curiously, and found that the second sister was sitting in the courtyard and cutting embroidery cloth with scissors......"
The little girl said and shook her head: "It's scary to look at the expression." Eldest sister, do you say that she is dissatisfied with her family affairs? β
The young and promising and outstanding-looking Shu Jishi, where is he not satisfied?
Feng Tao really couldn't figure it out.
Civil and military officials, clan nobles, whether it is ordinary personal contacts or talking about marriage, they all have their own circles.
For girls like her, most of them marry other civil officials or marry protΓ©gΓ©s of the promising Son of Heaven.
Of course, Shangshu Mansion is not comparable to ordinary civil officials, and the choice of marriage for children is much greater, but it shouldn't be so disgusted.
"She's still worried about Princess Wu's position, right?" Feng Tao couldn't help but tell the truth.
A fifteen-year-old girl is still very ignorant in some aspects, and has developed an astonishing acuity in some aspects.
Feng Cheng curled his lips and sneered: "It's useless for her to worry." β
Grandfather's salary at the bottom of the kettle ruined Feng Mei's dream of being a princess, even if Feng Mei would rather commit herself to being a concubine and follow King Wu, it depends on whether King Wu dares to ask for it.
is different from the prince's concubine, and the prince's concubine is a concubine.
The granddaughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was a concubine, and the fig leaf of the struggle between King Wu and the crown prince was completely torn.
But if King Wu is not stupid, he will not do such a thing.
"Tomorrow, the third sister really won't go with me?"
"Don't go, eldest sister, you have fun, and we'll go to Qianyun Mountain when you come back."
Seeing that Feng Tao was unwilling, Feng Cheng didn't force it: "Okay, you stay at home and stay away from the dark fragrance house." β
Feng Tao responded obediently.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Niu set off with Feng Cheng.
The grandfather and grandson each sat in a carriage, with Mrs. Niu's carriage in front and Feng Cheng's carriage behind.
Although I had to stay for a few days, the maid didn't bring any of this.
I want to go to the royal garden, and for the sake of royal safety, the invitees will have their own arrangements to serve the palace maids after they arrive.
Feng Cheng lifted the curtain of the car and looked out casually.
There were obviously more carriages on this road, and one of them looked a little familiar, Feng Cheng glanced at it and recognized it as Han Yanning's car.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion and the Han Mansion are in Kang'anfang, and Feng Cheng and Han Shoufu's granddaughter Han Yanning have known each other since childhood.
That didn't make the two friends.
When Feng Cheng swept towards the carriage, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a round face.
Seeing Feng Cheng, Han Yanning frowned, and was about to drop the curtain.
Feng Cheng took the first step and smashed the curtain of the car.
At that moment, Han Yanning's eyes widened, and he was stunned for a while before he remembered to drop the curtain, leaning against the wall of the car with a heavy face.
Feng Cheng is really shameless, and he dares to show her face!
And Feng Cheng, who was also leaning against the wall of the car, took a sip of honey water, and it was much more comfortable.
Sure enough, this kind of thing is like throwing face, whoever does it first is cool.
As for whether it will affect the relationship between the two governments because of the bad relationship between the two, of course it is impossible.
In the final analysis, the relationship between the two prefectures depends on the position of the family members in the DPRK.
After Feng Cheng drank a glass of honey water, sleepiness hit, and soon fell asleep with a pillow.
The carriage left the city, following many ornate and elaborate carriages.
I don't know how long it took, but the car finally stopped.
Feng Cheng, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up, rubbed his eyes and got out of the carriage.
The car is already in the Humble Summer Garden.
This open space is where the carriages of each province are placed, and further inside is a garden for the nobles to relax in the summer, and you have to walk inside.
The palace maids in uniform led the ladies and girls of each province to their residences, and after settling down, they went to meet Concubine Su.
Mrs. Niu told Feng Cheng in private: "When you little girls get together, it is inevitable that you will be happy to show your talents." Although you are just here to play this time, you must not lose the face of Shangshufu. β
Feng Cheng responded obediently: "Grandmother, don't worry." β
Old Madam Niu glanced at Feng Cheng suspiciously.
This girl hasn't been so obedient for a long time, but it's inexplicably unsteady.
However, the big girl's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting have been carefully taught since childhood, although she is not as good as the second girl, she can also show her hands.
Thinking like this, Mrs. Niu was relieved.
"It doesn't have to be too top-notch." Old Madam Niu looked at her granddaughter with delicate eyebrows and said another word.
Since he has no chance with the position of Princess Wu, there is no need to be too showy.
The second granddaughter is already a done boat if she doesn't marry well, and if the eldest granddaughter takes the opportunity of this small gathering to get into the eyes of any lady, maybe she can get a good marriage.
As one of the ladies, Mrs. Niu is well versed in the psychology of those noble ladies: she is proud to see her daughter shine, and if she looks at her daughter-in-law's perspective, she doesn't want her future daughter-in-law to pinch her point.
Gentleness and dignity, and a moderate progress, are the qualities that those ladies are willing to see from their daughters-in-law.
Feng Cheng smiled: "Grandmother, don't worry, the granddaughter of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can't pull out the top." β
Mrs. Niu was silent for a moment, and forgot to speak for a while.
Concubine Su lives in Changxin Hall, which is one of the best places in the Humble Summer Garden.
When Mrs. Niu took Feng Cheng to go, she met Han Shoufu's daughter-in-law Lu Shi and her daughter Han Yanning.
"It turns out that the old lady lives next door to us." Lu Shi smiled gently, "I haven't seen you for a few days, but I didn't expect to meet you here." β
The gentle and decent smile was full of ridicule in the eyes of Mrs. Niu.
This kind of banquet is usually a mother who brings her daughter, and Lu Shi is ironic that her two daughters-in-law can't take it.
But that's just the way it is.
This made Mrs. Niu very annoyed in her heart, but she could only pretend that she couldn't hear the sarcasm at all.
The two walked forward with a smile and chatting, and Feng Cheng and Han Yanning, who were left behind, came together.
"Feng Cheng."
Han Yanning's sudden approach made Feng Cheng frown secretly.
She looked at the girl with malice in her eyes silently, and did not say a word.
"You're embarrassed to come hereβ"
Before he finished speaking, Han Yanning watched Feng Cheng walk over.
After a moment of stunnedness, Han Yanning choked half to death, and couldn't help but shout: "Feng Cheng!" β
As soon as she shouted, Mrs. Niu and the Lu family turned back together, and the two palace maids who led the way also looked over.
Han Yanning was greatly embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I haven't seen Miss Feng for a long time, I want to talk to her, she is walking too fast." β
This explanation is quite reasonable.
Old Madam Niu looked at her granddaughter's gaze with a little disapproval: "What are you doing in such a hurry." β
Lu Shi smiled: "Miss Feng wants to accompany the old lady." β
If it looks considerate, it still makes people feel that Miss Feng is a little rude.
Old Madam Niu raised her eyebrows, secretly annoyed that her granddaughter was not angry.
Feng Cheng looked at Lu Shi with a smile: "No, because Miss Han scolded me, I don't want to hear it." β
The corners of Lu's mouth stiffened with a smile.
The eyes of the two palace maids looked at Han Yanning strangely.
The old lady Niu, who saw everything in her eyes, was in a very complicated mood.
Obviously, the granddaughter said that it was not like that, but what happened when she suddenly felt refreshed?
