Chapter 197: Showing Your Face (Second Watch)
The people invited by the eldest princess arrived one after another, and Aunt Xu smiled with everyone: "Let's all move to the East Cross Courtyard to watch the play, we invited Xiao Qingyang, the top brand of the Qingyang class, today." ”
Everyone got up with a smile and walked towards the east courtyard.
On the way, someone couldn't help but ask: "Isn't the hottest thing in Beijing in the past two years the Deyin class?" Why did the eldest princess invite the Qingyang class? ”
"You haven't listened to a play in half a year, have you?" Hearing this, some people couldn't help but cover their lips and smile, "Last year, the Deyin class fought in the ring with the Qingyang class, and Li Changsheng of the Deyang class lost to Xiao Qingyang of the Qingyang class!" ”
"Huh? And such a thing? Who is Xiao Qingyang? Isn't Qingyang's class a singing protagonist named Mu Qing? ”
"What year are you talking about? That person named Mu Qing has long been dead, his voice is hoarse, and he can't sing anymore! Someone replied disdainfully, "I heard that the one named Mu Qing got the benefit of the head of the Deyin class, and pretended that he couldn't get on the stage because he poured his throat, and was found out by the Shen class master of the Qingyang class afterwards and was expelled from the Qingyang class." ”
"Yes, I've heard that, too! said that he went to the Deyin class later, and you also know that Li Changsheng of the Deyin class had a bad voice, and the class owner wanted Mu Qing to replace Li Changsheng, but what kind of person is Li Changsheng! A glass of wine made the man named Mu Qing dumb! For this matter, the lawsuits of the two have been fought to Jingzhao Mansion! ”
"Ouch! This is really ruthless! ”
"Isn't it! The head of the Deyin class saw that Mu Qing had no hope, so he had to protect Li Changsheng for the sake of the troupe...... Then he walked out of Beijing. ”
Everyone was gossiping about the events at the time, but I don't know who asked: "It was good at the beginning, why did the Deyin class and the Qingyang class fight in the ring?" ”
"What does it mean to be good? You don't know that it's all the work of that one! As he spoke, the person who spoke nodded in the direction of Shi Jinxiu, "Don't look at the young age, but after a few months of hard work, the Xixiangtang is about to run out of life." ”
"Impossible! That Xixiangtang is the property of the Li family of Dingbei Hou! ”
Some people don't believe it.
"What impossible! Take a look, take a closer look, are there people from the Dingbei Hou family among the people who came today? ”
Everyone was reminded like this, only to find out that Mrs. Dingbei Hou really didn't come, even Mrs. Changxinghou, who married from Dingbei Hou Mansion to Changxing Hou Mansion, was not there.
"This ...... No, ......, could it be that the eldest princess deliberately didn't invite them for that one? ”
Everyone began to look at each other and looked at Shi Jinxiu.
At this moment, Shi Jinxiu was holding the excerpt of the play, standing beside the eldest princess with a smile, waiting for the Korean duchess to pick a play.
"Eldest princess, aren't you embarrassing me!" The Korean duchess squinted her eyes and looked at the excerpt of the play, "My eyes were not good in the early years, how can I still see this clearly." ”
The eldest princess laughed when she heard this, and then said to Aunt Xu, "Take my tortoiseshell glasses." ”
Aunt Xu went with a smile.
When Mrs. Zheng Anbo on the side heard this, she asked curiously: "These tortoiseshell glasses, but the tortoiseshell glasses that are hard to find in the capital these days?" ”
"Oh? Is it hard to find a thousand dollars? I don't know. The eldest princess looked a little surprised, "When this girl gave it to me, she didn't tell me this. ”
As she spoke, she looked at Shi Jinxiu.
Shi Jinxiu smiled awkwardly.
This time, Lin Xie's sea ship came back with three pairs of tortoiseshell glasses, because in her dream, this was a sought-after good thing, so as soon as she saw Lin Xie's manifest for this, she secretly detained one.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Shi Jinxiu with a shocked face, and they were all curious about how the tortoiseshell glasses got into her hand.
The Korean duchess laughed on the side: "It is said that these tortoiseshell glasses are a magical thing, which can make the old dizzy person see things clearly, and I don't know if it is true or false!" ”
The eldest princess laughed when she heard this: "This is true! I didn't believe it at first, but after wearing tortoiseshell glasses, I couldn't say that it was an excerpt from the play, but I could see the finer words than this. ”
As she was saying this, Aunt Xu had already taken the tortoiseshell glasses.
The eldest princess smiled and asked the Korean duchess to put it on.
The Korean duchess who wore tortoiseshell glasses really noticed that the handwriting on the excerpt became very clear, and she couldn't help but let out a sound of admiration.
Old Mrs. Zheng Anbo looked at it, and also leaned over and said, "Can you really see clearly?" Why don't you show me too? ”
The Korean duchess took off her tortoiseshell glasses with some reluctance and carefully handed them to Mrs. Zheng Anbo.
After Mrs. Zheng Anbo wore it, she was also amazed, which made other people's hearts itch even more.
It's just that they also know that they don't have such a deep friendship with the eldest princess, and they are embarrassed to say that they also want to give it a try, so they have to turn to Shi Jinxiu: "Mrs. Yuwen, can you still buy these tortoiseshell glasses?" ”
Shi Jinxiu, who was suddenly called Mrs. Yuwen, couldn't react for a long time.
"This ...... I'm afraid not for the time being. Lin Xie's ship will not go to sea again until July and August, and she is not wrong to say so.
The man's face was disappointed as he listened.
In the eyes of others, they suddenly felt that Shi Jinxiu was still better than them, and they were also sending things to please the eldest princess, and they were very particular about giving this thing.
Mrs. Zheng Anbo, who wore tortoiseshell glasses, looked at the excerpt of the play, but she didn't know which play to watch.
Shi Jinxiu laughed on the side: "Xiao Qingyang's "Shuangqiao Meeting" also sang well. ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as her words came out, Mrs. Zheng Anbo's face changed, and the Korean duchess glanced at her vigorously.
Could it be that I said the wrong thing?
She looked at the crowd in bewilderment.
I saw that some people were worried about her, some people were gloating, and some people were as ignorant as her.
For a while, she didn't know what to do.
She had no choice but to look at the eldest princess for help.
Just when everyone thought that the eldest princess would turn her face, they didn't expect the eldest princess to say leisurely: ""Double Bridge Meeting"...... I haven't heard this play in years, so let's sing this one! ”
Hearing this, Shi Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but many people present gasped.
Older people in the capital know that the eldest princess never listens to the play "Shuangqiao Meeting", but why she doesn't listen to it, not many people know the reason.
But no matter what, it is already very surprising that the eldest princess is willing to make an exception for the sake of Shi Jinxiu.
It can be seen that the eldest princess treats her differently from the people next to her.
Someone thought of the rumors in the market before.
Is Yuwen Yan really the face raised by the eldest princess? If so, how could the eldest princess treat his wife Shi Jinxiu so well?
