Chapter 36: The Lady of the Country

Although she was more attentive when she spoke, the central idea remained the same.

The Duchess was very unhappy when she heard it, and the person she fancied was not good at all.

It's not that the woman's worth is not good, but that her grandson is not worthy of the little lady of the Hou Mansion.

In her early years, she thought that her beloved grandson was even worthy of the princess, but after being punished by her daughter for kneeling, she knew that she couldn't do it.

Now it is not good to find a little lady in the Hou Mansion for her grandson and be pointed out again, which makes her a little angry.

Although she knows that no matter how good the baby Jin Sun is in her heart, it is useless, and she has to be thought good by others, but others are not optimistic.

Ay! By the age of eighteen, the child had always liked to play outside, which made her always want to find a good wife for her grandson.

She knew with some regret that it was impossible for Twelve Niang, so she looked around at the ceremony, and those people were aware of her intentions.

Most of the people who came to participate in the ceremony were young ladies who came out of their ranks, and they were more arrogant, so they naturally didn't want to marry Jiulang, a completely useless person.

They were in groups of three or five at the later banquet, and they didn't go to the Duchess at all, Ling Xiao didn't know what the situation was, so he found a few people to watch, and was targeted by the Duchess of Guo.

Mrs. Guo wanted everyone to see that she was an amiable person, so she took Ling Xiao's hand affectionately, and when she got closer, she found that Ling Xiao's cloth did not look very outstanding, but she could see that the whole person's bearing was very good.

This made her interested, you must know that she just thought that Ling Xiao was under the custody of the eighteen mothers to show a good bearing, after all, some little ladies look noble under the deposit of the nouveau riche, but if you look at it closely, it will look very unusual.

I saw Ling Xiao smile slightly, it was a polite smile, and said: "The little girl is the daughter of the Tao family, and her family lives in the suburbs. She spoke very calmly and without being too nervous.

At this time, other little ladies began to talk to each other, because they were gossiping: Will the Tao family girl want to marry into the Guogong Mansion? And as the master, Twelve Niang looked at this scene with a little hesitation.

She wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth and didn't say anything, and Ling Xiao naturally saw that those nobles seemed to have misunderstood something, and looked at her demeanor with a little disdain.

And the Duchess who asked thought for a while, the Tao family? Which is the Tao family in the mouth of this little lady? During this time, I didn't meet any Tao family.

Wait a minute! She remembered that if it was the Tao family, they should have left the capital for a while, and for many years, the Tao family did not step into the circle of the elite class in the capital.

As Mrs. Guo, she knew the former forces in the capital very well, and soon remembered that the Tao family used to be a family, but it should have declined in the past few years.

But the Tao family should still have some things, at least they are more good at training the little lady and being able to manage the feed, which is very important.

In addition, there is a big advantage that after the Tao family has declined, no one dares to come forward to take care of their grandson, which is definitely a good thing.

Her little grandson is here to enjoy the blessings, and there must not be a situation where he is beaten by his wife's uncle one day to teach him a lesson.

After thinking about it like this, she smiled, smiled amiably, and looked her up and down after grabbing Ling Xiao.

It can be seen that the skin of the woman in front of her is very good, and her complexion is fair and extremely delicate.

Except for the small part of the face that is covered by the mask, it is very good, and the exposed facial features are exquisite.

At first glance, if her face is not damaged, she is definitely a rare beauty.

What about the covered part? Curious to know how the situation is?

Mrs. Guo looked at Ling Xiao's face with burning eyes.

At this moment, she really wanted to take down the hidden part and take a look.

Ling Xiao naturally felt that this old lady was not too polite at all.

Her face looked very kind, and she clutched Ling Xiao's wrist tightly, for fear that she would run away.

Ling Xiao had a feeling that the old lady looked at her as if she was choosing the right pork.

If it feels good, she can get it, but she quickly realizes that the analogy is not very appropriate.

If this kind of noble lady really saw raw pork, she would only think that the meat was bloody, and she would probably faint.

In addition, Ling Xiao could feel it, probably thinking that she was a cousin girl who came to fight the autumn breeze, and she was a little unscrupulous in treating herself.

Ling Xiao wanted to get rid of the old lady for a moment, but she didn't do it in the face of Twelve Niang, but looked up to find Twelve Niang.

As a result, she happened to look at Shang Twelve Niang with some hesitation, which made Ling Xiao feel a little weird, Twelve Niang knew what she was doing, but Ling Xiao didn't know.

She half-lowered her eyes and thought about it, her performance was very indifferent, she was specially prepared before she came, she was beautiful this year, no power is a scourge, and the fake scar is absolutely clear.

At this time, Eighteen Niang, who had just run to change her clothes, came over and saw that the situation was wrong, obviously Twelve Niang should come forward at this time, but she had been watching silently, and Eighteen Niang grabbed Ling Xiao's other hand and said, "Sister Tao, let's go watch the fish." ”

She didn't want to embarrass Sister Tao, and she could feel that Sister Tao was not the kind of person who tended to be inflammatory. She didn't react at first, and she didn't know that someone had the idea to fight until she heard the whispers of others.

In the opinion of Eighteen Niang, the sister of the Tao family is very good. In the process of being with her, he did not despise himself like ordinary people, as if he was a fool.

And the Tao sister treats herself like an ordinary person, just let herself pay attention to it, too many hair accessories are not good for hair, because these are too heavy.

The reason why Ling Xiao said this is because he remembered that when an actor starred in a TV series, the hood was too heavy, which caused a place on the top of his head to be worn bald.

Eighteen Niang didn't know why she felt so good about Ling Xiao, she liked Ling Xiao very much, and what she said made Eighteen Niang feel very right.

In addition, she found that Twelve Niang was standing aside, and she had no intention of coming over to relieve the siege, which made Eighteen Niang not very happy.

As a relative of the emperor, she is very well-informed and knows the reason why the queen and the duchess fell out.

Naturally, he knew that Mrs. Guo was an empty shelf now, and she had no confidence at all.

There is no need to be polite to Mrs. Guo, and the twelve mothers actually don't need to be afraid of this.

But she chose to watch coldly, which made Eighteen Niang not very happy.

Hold Ling Xiao and don't let the Tao family's sister be picked all the time.

At this time, someone should have seen the Duchess's intentions.

In their opinion, it is a good thing that the declining Tao family girl can marry into the Cheng'en Mansion.

As for Jiurou being a gentleman? Afraid of what? There are more gentlemen in the capital.

And he's still a child, so when he grows up, he may have a chance, anyway, it's not his own little lady.

So he said, "What kind of fish are you seeing?" It's better to let the Tao girl stay, and let Mrs. Guo take a good look. ”

Ling Xiao had already seen the plans of these women at this time, and he had also heard the whispers of other people, and he had an understanding.

After living near the capital for a while, she began to find someone to search for things in the capital to prevent accidents, and she didn't know who did it.

She will find someone to collect a lot of gossip every month, and this Duchess who has been punished by her own daughter has also paid attention to it, and she didn't expect to encounter it.

At this moment, Mrs. Guo made her feel a little brainless, if she wanted her grandson to marry a princess, she had to see how good her grandson was.

In Ling Xiao's opinion, a big reason why that Jiulang became that gentleman was that the Duchess of Guo was spoiled, and his habitual son was like a murderer, and it was difficult to find a good wife.

Xiao misses the princess? If you look at the dynasty, if it is in a certain dynasty, it may be possible. After all, the status of the concubines in the later period of a certain dynasty was particularly low, and the officials were unwilling to marry their children to the princess, so they tried their best to escape.

At this moment, Mrs. Guo has already let go of Ling Xiao, because Eighteen Niang pulled Ling Xiao's hand back very domineeringly, Ling Xiao smiled at Eighteen Niang, I didn't expect that this child would come out to help her, and Twelve Niang couldn't be friends! Ling Xiao had this judgment, and she looked at Mrs. Guo.

How? If the princess can't marry, she will make her own idea? After thinking clearly, she frowned slightly, and had no intention of having anything to do with a gentleman, but someone deliberately said, "Why are you still wearing a mask?" ”

"The little girl has been injured and her face is damaged, so she will wear a mask to prevent someone from seeing it and being frightened all of a sudden." Ling Xiao pressed the mask and said calmly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little silent, "......" Some people wanted to ask Ling Xiao how his face was damaged, but they also knew that they shouldn't ask that.

Ling Xiao decided to take the opportunity to make them all completely dead and not worry about their marriage, so he smiled slightly and said, "Leaving a scar, it's not very good-looking." ”

After saying that, she took off the small half of the mask, and then pointed under her eyes, everyone saw that it was really a scar, a little whitish, and it could be seen.

It's like a piece of jade is partially damaged, many people feel a little pity, if there is no scar, it is definitely a beauty.

Get! The big families basically don't take a fancy to this Tao girl, and those ladies all show a very sorry look.

Ling Xiao didn't care what other people thought at all, she could tell that these people had pity in their eyes.

shows how kind they are, and they also feel that the Tao family girl will not be able to marry in the future.

For those eyes with pity, Ling Xiao didn't care at all, and directly put on the mask.

If her face is really injured, she is someone who doesn't need to look at it with curiosity.

I want to see how damaged it is.

In Ling Xiao's opinion, it was a bit like revealing other people's scars.

With a somewhat regretful gaze, Ling Xiao maintained a very calm appearance.

Some people felt that they didn't do well before, so they took off the bracelet from their wrists and brought it to Ling Xiao.

The others gave some of the favors, and Ling Xiao generously put away the gold, silver and jewelry.

There was no sadness, and there was no sense of insult after receiving compensation.

This performance made many housewives feel a pity, and some people felt that they could let the clansmen who were more financially constrained come to the door to propose marriage.

People with this kind of temperament are generally not small-minded, and they are good in the eyes of people who don't value their appearance, and they quickly changed the topic after they had their own plans.

And Ling Xiao was finally able to leave the Hou Mansion with Eighteen Niang, and those little ladies forgot that they wanted to ask the place where they sold fans at this time.

But after Eighteen Niang learned the news, she ran to take a look, wow! There are also eight fans, which cost a lot of silver, but all of them are very beautiful.

It happened to be the queen's birthday after a while, so she also had to give gifts, so it was better to give a few fans and leave a few for herself and her grandmother, so she swept away the eight fans because of her wealth.

When Twelve Niang wrote a letter to ask for the address afterwards, she took a look, only to know that the fans had all been sold out, which made Twelve Niang regret it, and she should not have stood aside to watch the excitement, but she didn't expect her response to be like that, hey! Sure enough, it was different, Twelve Niang decided to take a look at it.

Anyway, she is not in the same circle as her, and her fate has changed greatly. However, Twelve Niang decided to find someone to pay attention to her cousin's situation, because the development of things was not quite the same at all.

After Ling Xiao received the letter from Twelve Niang, he felt that this person was not thin-skinned, and he still had the face to ask this after treating himself like this? But after thinking about it, I still have to use the Hou Mansion.

She replied, but only wrote the address, nothing else, and after receiving the letter, she knew that the other party was not too happy.

After being silent for a long time, she wiped the tears from her eyes, everything was different, she was different from her, she should be very angry.

Just put this letter away, this is a letter written by her herself, it must be kept, it is all like a dream.

In fact, Ling Xiao, who was observing everything with questions, felt that when Twelve Niang looked at her, she was looking at another person.

For Ling Xiao, this feeling is simply a strange feeling, what the hell is going on?

No matter how you look at it, I feel that Twelve Niang looks at herself with a feeling that I can't speak.

It was as if with a kind of scrutiny, which was a terrible feeling for Ling Xiao.

This time, I can see that the Hou Mansion doesn't care about the Tao family at all.

It is said that the twelve mothers should not care about the original owner.

What are the problems between her and her?

Is it because she is......

Ling Xiao pondered and thought clearly.

It's impossible for her to put the twelve mothers like that.

In the end, Ling Xiao thought about it for a while and put it aside.

Some things, if they were to happen, would definitely happen.

And the attention of Twelve Niang is not too important in Ling Xiao's heart.

If Twelve Niang wants to do something, she will always know in the future and will not escape.

Before something happens, you don't need to feel wrong every day.

Even if she is knocked to the ground, she will get up, of course, she still has some numbers in her heart.

Directly marked the twelve mothers, and Ling Xiao began to look for another important problem on his own.

Over the years, she sent people to carefully break into the place, and thus found a lot of problems.

That is, there is one thing that Ling Xiao has been tracking all these years.
