Chapter 054: The Yan Family and the Banquet
After Liao's ban was lifted, she began to perform in order to save her reputation.
First, he spent a lot of money and donated silver to do good deeds, and went from Baiyun Temple to the front of the General's Mansion. For a while, the basic crowd who inherited her kind words to her had it.
Then he dragged her sick body to prepare two large carts of things, dragged in front of the general's mansion, and staged a big drama that was bent on going to Ge's house to explain her mind and take Ge's mother and daughter back to the mansion.
Ronghua cried in front of the door and said that he wanted to go to his surrogate mother.
Liao cried and scolded her daughter for being stupid, saying that the reason why the other party had been dragging on and refusing to see her for many days was because she was dissatisfied that she was the only one who went, and the other party was clearly forcing herself, the main mother, to come to the door and beg in person...... In and out of the words, it was pointed out that Ge Shi was taking the opportunity to secretly fight for status, forcing her to be the housewife, and secretly pointed out that Ge Shi was not as weak as the people saw, but was very thoughtful and had a lot of ideas, provoking from her husband to the people......
After a tear-jerking performance, Liao finally pushed Ronghua away to get into the car despite the obstruction, but as soon as he took a step, he rolled down.
The dignified lady really fell off the carriage, and that scene was so shocking.
There were more and more onlookers.
The face was as pale as paper, full of cold sweat, and he coughed up angrily, and the red-dyed Liao in the handkerchief aroused a lot of sympathy.
How many people began to persuade them, but the Liao family still insisted on going to Ge's house.
Eventually, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Later, several doctors came in and out of the General's Mansion......
Some people began to spread the nobility of Liao's famous family, all kinds of compassion and generosity for more than ten years, and many intimate feelings for Ge's mother and daughter, and almost perfect reputation in Beijing......
How could such a perfect person be unable to get along with a concubine in a rural place who couldn't even pose a threat? How could you use such a tortuous and stupid way to toss?
Some people in public opinion began to hint that someone had a purpose in planting the Liao family, in order to prevent the rumored owner of the "phoenix body" Yu Ronghua from ascending to the top by destroying the reputation of the Liao family.
I have to say that the Liao family is very hard working and smart, and they actually took advantage of the people's boiling discussion about the General's Mansion at this moment, and started the hot speculation of Yu Ronghua's "phoenix body" in reverse.
For a time, the matter of the phoenix body was paid more and more attention and asked about. On that day, the vision of the heavens, the birth of auspicious clouds, and the all-night chanting of Master Xingyun to protect each other were spread again.
Under the deliberate promotion, the limelight of Ronghua's "phoenix body" overshadowed Rong'an's affair at once, and it was successfully pushed to the forefront of public opinion.
Master Xingyun of Baiyun Temple also began to be questioned about the past. Although the master did not respond positively to this, he never denied it, and the more ambiguous his attitude was, the more curious it became.
Liao Wenci's discussion began to be well diverted.
The focus of everyone's attention is on Ronghua. Even the old lady of the Liao family was asked about her glory by the Queen Mother when she entered the palace......
Rong An also heard that Liao Wenci's illness had improved in the past two days.
Therefore, when Chang Rufei asked the girl to pass by the Ge family to bring a message, telling her that the queen, Ronghua and the Liao family would all attend Yan Feiqing's banquet tomorrow, Rong An found the exquisite gilded post that Yan Feiqing had sent three days ago.
She had to go.
It is normal for the niece to support the queen as Yan Feiqing's aunt. But Ronghua went, and Liao's also went, and Rongan couldn't sit still.
Previously, the queen was disgusted with the entire Liao family because of Rong'an's troubles, so the Liao family was rejected several times when she asked to see the queen. The Liao family had no choice but to think of working hard in front of the emperor and the queen mother.
Now...... Rong An doesn't know if the queen will be moved by the legend of the "phoenix body", whether this is a match; I don't know if Liao Wenci will think of reaching a reconciliation with the queen, and whether he will do something in front of the queen......
"Go ahead!" Rong An pushed the post to Ge Wei, who was looking at him with his head propped up.
Even if you don't want to make trouble, just ask for peace of mind......
Rong An picked his eyes again: "But you take the post and go first!" ”
"Why?"
"Do you think Madame Liao will let me show up? This is still in front of the Queen! What if I spoil her? I'm afraid she'll stumble on me. So you go early and tell them I can't go. ”
"I took the post, how do you get in?"
"My name is put out, this face is exposed, can I still not get in? What's more, with Chang Rufei and them here, will they let me in? ”
"The queen is also there, if you are late...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”
"I'm not afraid of losing face. Besides, my faux pas, Mrs. Liao is also responsible first! ”
Rong An disagreed, "It's you, not as good as me, don't learn from me in the future, follow the rules, and deal with those girls from noble families." You performed well that day, continue to maintain it, your connections and reputation are good, and it will always be good for you, the Ge family, your uncle, and the future. When I go, don't keep coming to my side and affect you......" Rong An said and lay down in the rocking chair again, closing his eyes, shaking, shaking......
Ge Wei opened her mouth, and Rong An felt a little sad for no reason. Rong An, what can she do? Seeing that everything is going in a good direction, but only her, her reputation is bad, and more and more people are offended, what will she do in the future? Ge Wei felt very sorry for her......
On the second day, Rong An appeared at Yan's house with Xiaohe, who looked more pitiful and helpless than a few days ago.
She went late, not only had all the guests arrived, but even the ceremony of Shanglu had ended, and many guests had already arrived in the garden to drink tea and talk and wait for the feast.
In the end, it is a relative of the emperor and a hundred-year-old family, this Yan family, the back garden is at least twice as large as the General's Mansion.
At this moment, Rong An can also be regarded as a popular figure in Beijing, so she attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared.
And as long as she looks at her, she will definitely cast a second and third look......
It's not just that she's late, it's because of her ...... Image.
She topped the noble lady's head that Ronghua combed for her that day, which was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, nondescript, and had a temperament that was completely different from her, and matched the cheap beaded flower that Ronghua gave her that day, and also dropped two bright-colored begonias on her sideburns.
Her outfit is really funny, coupled with the bean sprouts and lotus who are watching around with her eyes wide open, this pair of master and servant is completely like a living treasure.
Chang Rufei almost laughed when she saw her, but she knew in her heart, how could she come here like this just to celebrate her birthday?
Rong An saluted, but Chang Rufei dragged her and walked inside: "Let's go, the people you want to see are inside." I'll introduce you. The queen mother and the noble ladies are talking in the flower hall in front, and your lady and eldest sister, as well as today's master's house, are all there. ”
After Rong An thanked him, he asked about Ge Wei.
Chang Rufei pointed her out, and not far away, she saw Ge Wei elegantly talking with a few daughters at the lakeside viewing pavilion. Among them, two Rong An are acquainted, and they are both well-known civil officials......
Not bad!
