Chapter Seventy-Two: Red Flowers and Green Leaves
When Zhong Xiaohe's mother and daughter arrived, one of them had already arrived first.
looks like she is only twenty years old, and she looks quite good, and after Mrs. Guo's introduction, it is known that she is the second lady of the county's parents.
In fact, it is the concubine of the county official.
The county officials are all outsiders, and they have been in office for three years, and if the main mother does not come with them, they will arrange for the concubine to follow and take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Guo Dian's wife is arrogant to her subordinates, but she is extremely enthusiastic to her superiors, and the concubine in charge of the county official is called the second lady, which she shouted out.
"Second lady is good," Yang doesn't care what kind of lady he is, anyway, it belongs to the county official, and it is a big Buddha.
The second lady Mimi smiled and nodded, but there was no disdain on her face.
Although Mrs. Guo is dressed gorgeously today, unlike last time, with a noble head, this time she is warm and cordial to Yang's mother and daughter.
The box brought by Yang did not open it immediately, and after signaling the subordinates to accept it, he was warmly invited to take a seat.
Behind her, the eldest lady of the Guo family followed, and did not see the two legendary sisters.
This Miss Guo was far away from seeing her twice, but this time she saw it clearly, this girl who looked like a straw in her mother's mouth, her figure was indeed tall and thin, her face was long, and she looked like Mrs. Guo, but compared with Mrs. Guo's gorgeous and arrogant roughness, she looked steady and dignified, her words and deeds, and even her smile, seemed to be overmeasured.
"Miss Zhong is so blessed, tsk, the skin is white and tender, and she can pinch out the water."
Praise Zhong Xiaohe's white skin, well, at present, it seems that this is the only advantage. The hairs on Zhong Xiaohe's praised arms stood up.
However, shouldn't they pick up each other's bracelets and rings at this time and give gold beans and silver beans to each other's children?
It turns out that the brain is making up too much.
Yang said humbly: "Since I was a child, I grew up in the countryside, and I am not as beautiful as the Guo family's sisters. ”
Mrs. Guo smiled and didn't refute, this really can't make her speak modestly, isn't this unclear, the two of them can't compare at all, otherwise, can this fat girl be here?
was chatting, and the next person reported that the wife of the Zhou family had arrived, and the Yang family and Zhong Xiaohe both jumped in their hearts, and said secretly, no.
Mrs. Guo smiled and said to the second lady: "Three are missing one, this one is finally here." After Mrs. Guo stood up, she gave her girl a look, and then hurriedly walked forward, and Miss Guo understood, and immediately stood up and followed closely.
Let Mrs. Guo attach so much importance to it, it must be the wife of Master Zhou.
The appearance of the person who came should be older than the Yang family, but it should be less than forty, looking at the appearance, it must be a few years younger, and it is much stronger than the second wife of the county official.
No wonder Zhou Chong is so handsome, he is completely Xiao's mother.
Smiling politely and with a sense of distance, this is Zhong Xiaohe's first feeling for Mrs. Zhou.
But she thought in her heart that Zhou Chong could say such discriminatory words, and if she didn't have the influence of her mother, she wouldn't believe it.
Mrs. Zhou was also accompanied by an eleven or twelve-year-old girl with a little yellow hair, and these eight achievements were the malnourished Miss Zhou in her mother's mouth.
This girl's eyebrows and eyes are a little similar to Tuesday, it may be Xiao's father, but her appearance is not so charming and lovely when she switches to the girl's face, not to mention that she is not as delicate as Tuesday.
However, there is a bookish atmosphere all over his body, which adds a bit of temperament.
As soon as Yang saw Mrs. Zhou come in, he couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up with a respectful attitude.
But in my heart I complained wildly,
Three big Buddhas, today I am afraid that I will output three times twenty taels out, and Lao Zhong is afraid that he never thought of it.
Huzi has just fought with someone else's son, and his own family has also squeezed his second child with words, and he has long suspected that he suddenly invited me to play mahjong.
The Yang family was worried here, and Mrs. Guo greeted warmly: "Mrs. Zhou, if you lack one of the three, you will be lacking as the God of Wealth." ”
Yang:...... I thought I was the one who was missing.
Before Mrs. Zhou could reply, Miss Guo had already stepped forward, squatted slightly, and said with a look of admiration: "Zixian asked Mrs. Zhou An." ”
Mrs. Zhou smiled and hurriedly helped up, took the other party's hand, and said affectionately: "I haven't seen Zixian for a few days, but Zixian is becoming more and more stable and beautiful." ”
Zixian smiled and lowered her head, as if she was a little shy, and glanced at the little girl next to her gently: "It's not as good as Sister Mingyu." ”
Mrs. Zhou patted Miss Guo's hand and said kindly: "You kid, it's so cute." ”
Zhong Xiaohe was a little suspicious, these two people were actually more like a mother and daughter.
But the little girl Zhou next to her blinked her eyes, she didn't see that Miss Guo and her mother loved each other, her eyes turned and fell on Zhong Xiaohe, and she kept looking.
I can't help but pay attention, this fat girl is an abrupt existence, and she looks too cola.
Over there, Mrs. Zhou smiled, patted Guo Zixian's hand, looked up at the concubine of the county official's family, and pursed the corner of her mouth imperceptibly, but instantly pulled it up lightly, smiled and nodded, "It turns out that the second lady is also here." ”
The second lady raised her handkerchief to cover her mouth and smiled, "The slave family is a frequent visitor to the Guo family's sister, but Mrs. Zhou rarely comes." ”
Mrs. Zhou's expression was slight, but that's it, she didn't care about the other party's tone, and looked at Yang and Zhong Xiaohe, "Mrs. Zhong is also here, but it's rare to see it." "A kind smile.
Yang thought to himself, it can be regarded as my turn, let's cover the water, hurry up and salute, "The little woman asked the chief bookkeeper Mrs. Ann." ”
Mrs. Zhou smiled reservedly on her face and nodded slightly.
Mrs. Guo's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain next to her, and she just smiled, "Today I made an appointment with you to play mahjong, okay, everyone don't see too much, eat tea first, rest a little, let's fight for another three hundred rounds." ”
He said to Guo Zixian again: "Zixian, treat your sister Mingyu well, ah~ There is also Miss Xiaohe, eat more fruits." ”
Guo Zixian was busy, beckoned Zhou Mingyu and Zhong Xiaohe to bow down, and sat down on Mrs. Zhou's side.
Mrs. Guo is exquisite, with her as a spice, several women chatted not coldly, and occasionally turned the topic to a few girls, which attracted several ladies to look at Zhong Xiaohe and the three of them.
In this way, in terms of appearance, height, demure rules, and dress, it is obvious that the eldest lady of the Guo family is the leader.
Mrs. Guo was secretly satisfied, sipping tea, glancing at Mrs. Zhou, and thinking: My girl is so good, as dazzling as a red flower in thousands of green leaves, and her family background is also the same as that of the Zhou family.
The county official's concubine suddenly smiled and said: "Why doesn't Mrs. Guo give Zixian a wife, such an excellent girl, how long will you hide?" ”
Mrs. Guo sighed, "My family likes to read books and admires readers, I am just this daughter, and I don't want to wronged him." ”
Mrs. Zhou next to her smiled shallowly, sipped her tea gently, and didn't want to interject, so she couldn't see what she was thinking.
The second lady suddenly turned to Mrs. Zhou and asked, "Your second child hasn't seen it for a long time, but he is too busy with his studies and hasn't returned?" ”
Mrs. Zhou lowered her eyes, a trace of unhappiness quickly flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't see anything when she raised it again, "Luming Academy is in the state capital, it's not easy to come back, and it's important to study, but I came back a few days ago, and I drove it away yesterday." ”
Mrs. Guo: "I'm a rough person, I don't understand the things of a scholar, but I always bury my head in hard reading, and it's not good for my body to think about it, so don't push it too hard." Do you say yes or no? ”
