Chapter Forty-Seven: Trouble Occurs at the Banquet
Because there were a lot of guests coming today, Su Man entertained this group of girls in the water pavilion, so he didn't pay attention to which one was missing and which one was missing.
A group of girls reunited in the water pavilion and talked lively, and one or two said that it was boring inside, and it was not strange to go out and go around.
Su Man thought that the girls in each mansion were all noble, and there were girls and mothers-in-law around him, so what could happen in this mansion, so he didn't care too much.
As soon as people are negligent, the matter will be found.
Su Man was eating snacks with the girls and talking about which ornaments were fashionable in Beijing, when he saw the rouge beside Xie hurriedly walked in.
Rouge's face was quite normal, she smiled and saluted the girls from all the prefectures present, and then said to Su Man with a smile: "Girl, Madam said that she was looking for you for something, and asked you to come over." ”
Su Man wondered in his heart, he was entertaining guests at this moment, and it was really rude to leave rashly. If in normal times, Xie would definitely not be able to do such a faux pas, something must have happened.
Su Man stood up, complained to the others, and said with a smile: "My mother has always been unwell recently, maybe it's not good at this time, I'll take a look." ”
Xie Ying's eyes rolled slightly, smiled and waved his hand at Su Man, and said, "I know, you just have to take care of your aunt, with me here, I won't neglect you." ”
Several girls giggled when they heard this, and said softly that it was okay, Su Man bent his knees again, turned around and followed Rouge out of the water pavilion.
Before he got out of the water pavilion, the smile on Rouge's face immediately collapsed. She leaned into Su Man's ear and whispered, "Girl, something happened in the front hall, and Madame is afraid that she will not be very happy at this time." ”
Su Man hummed lightly: "What's wrong?" ”
"Yes......" Rouge raised his eyes and looked around, only then did he lower his voice, "The fifth girl from the Changqing Marquis Mansion said that she had eaten too much wine and sobered up by the lotus pond, and then she collided with Wei Er Gongzi. ”
Lotus pond? Su Man's eyes narrowed slightly, "Where is the lotus pond?" ”
"It's next to the Taihu Lake Stone on the east side of the Ruyi Pavilion." Rouge followed closely behind Su Man, and although his speed of speech was not slow, his words were clear, "You also know that Young Master Yan received male guests in the Ruyi Pavilion and went to that place to sober up......"
"But who saw it?" Su Man only felt a throbbing pain in his eyebrows, in the past, he always saw that the novel wrote which family's concubine used such a trick of chance encounter or something in order to climb the high branches, she just regarded it as a joke. She really didn't expect that someone would be really stupid enough to do this.
"Miss Yang's girl said that her girl said that she wanted to go around the garden, and when she walked to the edge of the Taihu Lake stone, she said that she was tired and wanted to rest." Rouge's voice was still very low, and there was no emotional fluctuation in her tone, "She felt that there was some wind by the lake, so she wanted to go back to the water pavilion to take the girl's coat." ”
"So, you left Miss Yang by the lake by herself?" Su Man also felt a little speechless, the women in this back house are more shrewd than the other, and the five girls of the Yang family are also good, and they dare to use such a clumsy trick.
"What about the second son of Wei?" Su Man sighed lowly, someone took a hook, and there was actually a fish biting it. She really didn't know whether to praise the luck of the person who took the hook, or lament that the person who bit the hook was too unlucky.
The second son said that he had also eaten some wine, so he wanted to walk around the yard. He was afraid of bumping into the female guest, so he asked the waiter and walked along the more secluded east side. ”
Yes, these two people are really destined for fate.
"I remember that the prince of the Dingguo Mansion is the concubine of the Changqing Marquis Mansion." Su Man asked Rouge in a low voice.
Rouge nodded: "Yes, Mrs. Shizi is pregnant, so she didn't come this time." ”
Su Man also nodded, so he didn't ask any more questions, and went straight into Xie's Shaohua Garden.
In the flower hall of Shaohuayuan, Yang Ning knelt on the ground, only covering his face with a handkerchief and crying blindly, but he didn't say anything.
When Su Man came in, he saw a room full of noble ladies staring at the girl kneeling on the ground with a dark face.
Su Man raised his eyes and swept around the room, the main seat was naturally sitting on the Xie family, next to the Xie family was the cold Duchess of Dingguo Lin, and the Marquis of Changqing Lady Yang was sitting in the circle chair on the right side, and Yang Ning was kneeling at Mrs. Yang's feet.
Mrs. Yang's face was naturally very ugly, she stared angrily at Yang Ning who was kneeling on the ground, her eyes were like knives, and she couldn't wait to scrape the people in front of her one by one.
That Yang Ning only covered his face with a handkerchief and cried, and he probably didn't dare to look up at his mother-in-law's face.
When Xie Shi saw Su Man coming, he called her to his side and asked in a low voice, "Rouge can tell you everything?" How do you take care of the guests, you actually asked the five girls to walk around by themselves, and they didn't send a few people to follow! ”
Su Man immediately bent his knees: "It's because my daughter didn't think about it well, she didn't entertain a good girl, and she asked her mother to punish her." ”
Xie Shi glanced at Su Man, Su Man immediately understood, walked to Mrs. Yang's side in a few steps, bowed respectfully, and said: "This incident is also the little lady's inconsiderate hostess, knowing that the fifth girl is not familiar with the environment in the house, she didn't send a few more girls to follow her, they are all little girls, and I ask Mrs. for forgiveness." ”
The concubine in her own house didn't know that she had checked out such a thing, and Mrs. Yang was already angry, and after listening to Su Man's words, she felt that this Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion was slapping her face.
She sneered: "Where is the big girl, it is obvious that our government discipline is not good, so this kind of thing is embarrassing." ”
Su Man had long heard Mrs. Su say that this Mrs. Yang was very bitter and mean, and she treated the concubines in the house even more inappropriately.
So hearing her say this, Su Man didn't reply, only bent down to hold Yang Ning's arm: "Sister Yang, hurry up, it's warm and cold at first, if you catch a cold, it's not good." ”
Yang Ning was still crying, but his eyes kept glancing at Mrs. Yang through the gap in the handkerchief, and when he saw that Mrs. Yang had no reaction, he dared to stand up slowly.
The Duchess of Dingguo, Lin, was also very angry, she glanced at the crumbling Yang Ning, and snorted coldly: "Mother-in-law, it's good that our brother Yong'er caught up with this matter, let's say that my sister misses my sister and asks one or two, if you meet someone else's brother, it won't be clear." ”
Mrs. Yang's face was pale, but she didn't dare to refute, she only forced a smile and said: "My mother-in-law will take care of her, I will definitely educate her well when I go back." ”
After she finished speaking, she didn't care what the Lin family and the Xie family looked like, stood up and brushed the corners of her clothes, and said with a reluctant smile: "It's a mess today, so I won't bother much, and I'll come back to visit another day." ”
Xie Shi also stood up with a chair, and said with a smile: "The hospitality is not good, and I ask Mrs. Hou to take care of it." As he spoke, he was going to send Mrs. Yang out.
Mrs. Yang said a few times to stay, and then led Yang Ning out of Shaohuayuan with her mother-in-law.
