Chapter 53, the banquet in the East Garden of the Li Mansion
Lin Taohua's sharp eyes saw that Xu Feng'er was unnatural for a moment, but being able to cover up the past so quickly showed that she was also a woman who had seen the world and could hide her thoughts, so she also followed and said: "Hehe, then I wrote it down, and I will send a greeting to my sister's house when it opens." ”
Lin Niangzi is also a person with a clear eye, and the little fight between the two naturally did not deceive her. She didn't interject, and took the two of them directly to the warm pavilion in Dongyuan, thinking that she would have to find an opportunity to mention Xu Feng'er later, after all, the Zhou family is benevolent and righteous, and Lin Taohua is not bad, even if the Zhou family will not necessarily become opponents in the future with Anlan Liquor.
The warm pavilion lit the earth dragon, although the space is large, it is also warm. When the three of them entered the house, the ladies and wives inside got up to greet them.
Lin Niangzi took off her silver fox fur and took Lin Taohua's hand to introduce her, this is the wife of Zhang Ji Grain Store, and that is the wife of Hong's firm, there is no huge rich family and there is no excessive shabby, after all, they are all about the same or slightly lower than the Li family. Lin Taohua followed her and walked down, her face was about to stiffen with laughter, but fortunately, she had a good memory, and she finally got the right number.
After seeing the ceremony, everyone sat down to drink, drink tea, eat some snacks and chatter. Most of the things said are whose wife's clothes are newly purchased, using the latest fashionable silk in the south, and the clothes are really beautiful, who has a good mouth grease and a really good color, or who has a good daughter, and who has a good son, can you be a family.
Lin Taohua can still insert two sentences about dressing up, and when it comes to the marriage of her children, her eyes are dark. If someone asks her opinion, she can only deal with it, and she is really not embarrassed to sit down.
Xu Feng'er saw her discomfort, squeezed from her seat to Lin Taohua's seat, pulled her to talk about winemaking, and took the opportunity to pour her a few glasses.
Lin Taohua didn't know if this guy was really in tune with her, or if he took the opportunity to deliberately pour her, but he didn't drink it, but this guy was eloquent, so he didn't push it off, and he was a little drunk after a few cups.
"Sister spare me, I have to go and change my clothes." Lin Taohua saw Xu Feng'er come to toast again, and hid to the side in fear.
The third junior high school was standing aside and was anxious, and when he heard Lin Taohua say that he wanted to change his clothes, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and blessed Xu Feng'er with a smile, "Xu Niangzi forgive me, the slave maid will help my wife to change clothes first." ”
Xu Feng'er drank the wine and her complexion became brighter, the water in her apricot eyes flowed, and she said with a smile: "Go, go, go." ”
The third junior high school hurriedly picked up the dizzy Lin Taohua and withdrew.
"You guy drink more if you're greedy for a cup, why are you pulling peach blossoms to drink together? When she turned around, she went back drunk, and Zhou Jiazaburo also deliberately bullied his wife and caused trouble in vain. ”
After Lin Taohua staggered away, Lin Niangzi frowned and blamed Xu Feng'er.
Xu Feng'er said disappreciatively: "It's just that I drank two more glasses of wine, and I didn't say anything out of place, Mrs. Zhou doesn't look like a person with a small belly, my sister is too worried." ”
Lin Niangzi frowned, and said in her heart, I hope I am too worried, if something really happens, the face of the host of her banquet will not look good.
The third junior helped Lin Taohua all the way to the courtyard, and wanted to find a sheltered pavilion to sit, but Lin Taohua was so soft that she didn't want to go, so she sat down directly next to a small rockery.
"Oh, ma'am, get up quickly, it's already cold outside, and it's even colder on the stones, and you've drunk so much wine that the wind will blow cold." How could the third year of junior high school let her sit here and pull her up anxiously.
Lin Taohua muttered dizzily: "In the third year of junior high school, I'm so hot, let me rest here for a while." ”
The third junior didn't pull it up a few times, and he almost didn't cry out in a hurry, and he became more and more resentful of Xu Fenger. "Madam, get up quickly, if you are frozen and sick, the owner must not pick my skin."
Lin Taohua chuckled, looked at the third junior high school and said, "No, Brother Ming is gentle." ”
The third year of junior high school can't cry or laugh, the owner is a gentle person, it depends on what is going on, once the owner is really unhappy, the gentle person immediately becomes an iceman, and the indifferent eyes can see the person's legs and stomach tremble.
"Then the lady gets up, and the slave and maid will put the robe on the stone and sit on it for you, will you?"
"So what's the matter, you didn't drink, and then I froze you." Lin Taohua's mind is still very clear.
The third junior high school felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "The slave is not cold, you see, my hands are still warm." She held Lin Taohua's hand and said that she was really not cold.
Lin Taohua felt that it was really warm, so she staggered to her feet, and the third junior quickly put the robe on the stone thickly, and then let her sit down, and then stuffed the small hand stove in her arms into her arms, and tightened the fox fur on her body, which was a little relieved.
"In the third year of junior high school, you wrapped me so thickly, I was very hot." Lin Taohua pulled her collar uncomfortably.
The third junior hurriedly took her hand and coaxed, "This just came out, it will be fine in a while." Good lady, you can't blow the wind after drinking, you should feel sorry for the third year of junior high school, the slave doesn't want to be deducted from the owner's wages yet. ”
Lin Taohua pouted, "I'm going back to ask Xianggong what he did to make the beautiful junior high school so scared." ”
The third junior smiled and cooperated: "Okay, you go back and tell the owner, don't scare me if you have nothing to do, the slave is timid." ”
The two talked softly for a while, Lin Taohua felt a little more comfortable, and was ready to take the junior high school back to the table. At this time, a rush of footsteps came from far and near, and there were faint people arguing.
"Madam, wait, this eldest lady entertains the wives of the merchants in the county, and she didn't call the backyard people, so don't be confused."
When she got closer, Lin Taohua heard clearly, sounding like a middle-aged woman.
"Humph! What kind of banquet did I not be able to attend, ladies and wives? I'm the lord's wife, why can't I participate in this banquet in the back house? It was the little slut of the Zhou family who said bad things about me in front of the master, and he didn't come to my yard once in two months. Now that Lin Xiujuan has promoted the Yao family and the Li family, some people have spread good news one after another, and if I don't show my face again, how can I still have a foothold in the yard! A crisp voice scolded angrily.
"Oh, Madame be cautious, there is no place in this courtyard where there is the eyeliner of the eldest lady, and it is not good to be heard."
Yu Shi sneered: "What can Lin Xiujuan's soft temperament do to me?" It's just that she was looked at twice by the lord on her stomach, and when the child was born, how could she still have the energy to stare at the master, how could the lord let the beautiful flowers in the yard not get close, and specifically looked at the sloppy woman in Lin Xiujuan's confinement. ”
The old mother who followed her said with some worry: "If the eldest lady really gives birth to a son-in-law, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable for the lady to compete with her like this." ”
Yu Shi smiled: "Mama Li, you look down on her." I'm not an ordinary concubine, I'm still the second lady's own mother, and serving the master is my job, she doesn't have the courage to disadvantage me. Mother Li, you go with me to Dongyuan to meet Madame. ”
After saying that, he hurried away with someone.
Lin Taohua is not in a hurry to leave at this time. People are scolding her while looking forward to the future, bumping into her on the road, how embarrassing it is to face to face.
The third junior also heard it, and the fire in his heart swelled.
"Madam, this Yu is a flat wife if it sounds good, but if it is ugly, it is a concubine with a high status. It is disgusting that this hoof should dare to scold you. The third junior raised his eyebrows and whispered.
Lin Taohua said funny: "People scolded me, I'm not angry, what are you angry about?" With a concubine, the price dropped. ”
The junior high school's eyes turned around her face, and she said happily: "Madame, but there is a way to rectify her?" ”
Lin Taohua glanced at her, "The Yu family is the inner family of the Li Mansion, I am the wife of the Zhou family, and my arm is not that long." ”
The third year of junior high school is not angry, "Just let that slut scold you so plainly?" ”
Lin Taohua smiled and said: "I can't say it plainly, I listen, you have scolded her several times as a little slut in this moment." ”
The junior was speechless, stomped his feet and said, "Madam." ”
Lin Taohua hurriedly reassured: "Okay, okay, it's the matter of the Li Mansion after all, and it is better for the people of the Li Mansion to handle it." Let's go, let's also go and see the rules of the back house of the Li Mansion. ”
When the junior high school heard this, he hurriedly took care of the scene and helped Lin Taohua to return to the East Garden to continue the banquet.
