Chapter 577: Roster

At least we still have a roster, and Qin Yao is looking forward to this thing very much now.

"Sister-in-law, if that's the case, I'll see the roster tomorrow, and you can give me a brief introduction to the ladies of the big families above, so as not to know anyone that day, it's too embarrassing." Qin Yao knew his shortcomings very well in his heart.

The eldest princess frowned, "I don't know too much about these things in the imperial city, let's wait and see who will talk about it that day." ”

Gu Ya handed over the letter brought by the little maid in the sixth lady's mansion on the side, "The eldest princess and the second princess, let's see if there is anything else, the invitation is down again, and it can be regarded as having a heart." ”

When I opened the letter, I saw that it was a text message and a roster.

"That little girl said, isn't there a ready-made roster?" Qin Yao leaned over to Gu Ya's side and watched.

"Don't you know how to read? Why is this time rushing forward again? The eldest princess laughed at Qin Yao's curiosity.

"Sister-in-law, I just don't know a lot, I still recognize some words, but I also ask the sister-in-law to help me keep it secret, after all, if someone knows that I don't understand literature and science, it's too shameless." Qin Yao said coquettishly.

The letter was very short, only a few sentences, the content was the time and place of the banquet that day, and a few sentences of formal invitation, and there was no new information.

However, there is a table attached to the back, which is more interesting. Although it was only a few thin pieces of paper, the names of the people were densely written on them, and they were according to the direction in which these families lived in the imperial city.

"This arrangement is heartfelt, this kind of banquet in the past, either according to the height of the portal, or it depends on whether it is compatible with the main family, or there is a difference between internal and external intimacy, this is the direction of the hold, everyone has nothing to say." The eldest princess looked at the roster and praised it.

"The sixth lady is an understanding person, and it is not the first time to hold a banquet, but it is indeed very subtle to be able to think about it like this." Qin Yao thought to herself, she couldn't think of the idea of dividing the roster by pressing the direction of your stay, where you live is fixed, how to divide it is the arrangement of fate.

"You look at these few, these are all from all over the house, once there are so many households like this, there will definitely be people who will laugh at them for not knowing the proportion, but the place where they live, they are all guarding the door, and no one is embarrassed to say something ugly, this trick is really clever." The eldest princess pointed to the first few families on the roster and said.

"Also, you see it's all marked, the Huang family and the Qi family, alas, but even if these two families come, there are few people, and they are all family backgrounds." The eldest princess was a little emotional about the names of these two families.

Qin Yao didn't know who the Huang family's Qi family was, so she could only ask, "Who are they, eldest imperial sister-in-law?" Is it a famous family? ”

"They, they are all descendants of the founding meritorious family, just some meritorious families at that time, to be honest, there are not seven or eight people in the family for several generations, it is estimated that there are only two or three female dependents, three or four people are not much, and the girls in their family, well, the appearance is average, but the reputation is very good, and looking at the kind of children with comparable net worth, it is good and stable to find their family, although it is not a big family, but several families have been passed down for generations, and the family style is very clean." The eldest princess still has a lot of respect for these two families in her words.

"Sister-in-law, if someone with such an upright family style wants to pick a daughter-in-law, what will they look for?" Qin Yao asked curiously.

"Well, it won't be the two of us anyway." The eldest princess said seriously.

"You're too direct, sister-in-law...... Why? Although Qin Yao didn't think she was very good, she didn't expect the eldest princess to think that she couldn't do it like this.

"Because these people need a more affordable daughter-in-law, I am flashy, you are not magnificent enough, to marry them, you must be the same family with a face for several generations, but the Meng family, there are many and messy families, I am more pampered since I was a child, they don't like it, what about you, just from this item, you are very restricted, not because you are from the concubine family, but because they don't marry the people who have married the concubine...... "The eldest princess explained.

"That is, the kind that only recognizes one wife?" Qin Yao asked.

"Yes, the Qi and Huang families both mean this, and they all know it in the imperial city, so the two of them are declining day by day, and the people are not thriving." There was a tone of admiration in the words of the eldest princess.

"This is the family that the founder of the academy is the aunt of the Gu family married, this is their own family, but this family is above the top, their daughters are well-read, but the family rules are also very strict. If you want to marry their family, you have to weigh your own family's family affairs, and whether the rules can keep up, otherwise many things will be taught a lesson if you can't keep up. The eldest princess pointed to the back and said.

These people, Qin Yao either didn't know about them, or she had only heard of them, so she simply looked at the list at the back.

"And the next ones, you should have an impression, right?" The eldest princess asked.

Qin Yao took the small list over and took a closer look, and there were a few of them that were really familiar at a glance, "Alas, what is written on this is also marked, why did they send the lady of the side room and the third room to come out to meet the guests, what about the eldest lady in the main room?" Don't you go out to see people? ”

"You have seen them because of these families, and also because, when you went to the banquet with Aunt Feng before, these people were the ones who went out to meet the guests, and at that time, these families were not the eldest lady, right?" The eldest princess helped Qin Yao start to analyze, "Speaking of which, it's very simple, it means that the head lady of their family is either unwell, or she doesn't care about her family, so these people do the things that go out to show face." ”

"Then this kind of favorite concubine thing, will it be looked down upon by other families?" Qin Yao didn't know that she had followed Aunt Feng out at that time, and how much trouble she caused after she came back, and the eldest lady held a grudge later.

"That's right, so in fact, I can't see some of the banquets in the imperial city in ordinary times, and I must have heard that they will come when you participate, and the sixth lady can invite them, which means that she is not a person who cares about this matter. After all, the ranking of the sixth lady is also lower. The eldest princess said.

"Sister-in-law, don't you think that the wedding card sent by the sixth lady this time and the people who want to participate are particularly casual? It seems that there are no rules at all, who wants to come, she is willing to invite, everyone is okay. Qin Yao took a closer look at this roster, and felt that he had almost taken into account that all the people in the imperial city who had a little reputation came.

"It seems to be, alas, I really don't know what Wanfu thinks, there is another powerful one in the Wanjia, that is, the second lady, have you seen her, have you heard of her in Xiaotangquan? She herself is particularly disdainful of the style of the sixth lady of the Wan family. How many times have I said that I can't look down on it from the outside. The second lady thinks that everything should be prioritized, two people, because of this matter, there has been a discord. The eldest princess said.
