161 Banquet of the Hou Mansion
Jin Niang was also curious about Miss Seven's future husband before, but now, she is not curious. Because the mystery is revealed, if nothing else, Li Hehui should be Miss Seven's wishful husband.
However, this is also a bit absolute, because depending on the situation, the two are only in the initial contact stage, and whether they can finally become a family depends on fate.
But then again, the fact that these two young people were able to come out together to see the lanterns on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival shows the attitude of the two families from the bottom up.
At least the Zhuangjun Mansion and the Taifu Mansion have the intention of becoming in-laws, and now it only depends on the attitude of the two young people. If both of them are interested in each other, they will soon settle their family affairs, maybe they don't have to wait for the next year or the year after tomorrow, if the Taifu Mansion is in a hurry to marry their daughter, maybe they will be able to drink the wedding wine of the two newlyweds in the coming year.
Jin Niang thought so, and she was also happy in her heart. She is currently the only one in Beijing who can say Mrs. Su, if Li and Hui get married, will her relationship with Miss Seven be a little closer, and is it possible to develop her into her best friend?
It's not that Jin Niang has the heart to cling to anything, but her social circle is too small. There are even fewer people who can speak well, so no matter what the reason, it is better to know a few more people who can get along. Especially Miss Seven is still Li Hehui and his future wife, and Li Hehui and Erlang are confidants and friends, so it is even more reasonable for the two to make friends.
Jin Niang thought very well, but what the truth is after all depends on the will of God.
Now I don't mention those who are far away, but only those things that are ahead. Because considering that Miss Seven may be Li Hehui's future wife, Jin Niang and Mrs. Su are a little affectionate to her.
As for Miss Seven, she was also the leading girl in the capital, and she definitely didn't have to pick her temperament and etiquette in dealing with people. Such a noble girl, who really intersects with people, can definitely make people trust her in the shortest possible time and become a confidant.
Now the three of them talk happily with each other, and even have a feeling of hating each other. Miss Seven is also a proper person, seeing that Pian Pian is not young, she also pulled Pian Pian into the topic, and told her some things about dressing up and etiquette, but for the noble girl circle in the capital, and the noble girl who is suitable for Pian Pian to make friends, Miss Seven did not mention it.
It's not that she deliberately hides something, but she hasn't been out and around for two years, and her previous relationships have been a lot of sparse, so she can't say that she knows absolutely about the small groups in the circle now. Then she was older, and Pian Pian was still very young, and she knew very few little girls her age; Another point is that Taifu is a good person, which means that the official position of her father and brother in the family of the "little sister" she made is definitely above the fourth grade, and Pianpian's family background is lower, so it is difficult to find a little girl who can talk to her.
When Miss Seven and Pian Pian were talking, Jin Niang looked at the person carefully without a trace.
I have to say that Miss Seven can be called a representative figure among the nobles in the capital, and her appearance is definitely very good. And her appearance is also very dignified and magnificent, graceful and luxurious like a peony flower that captivates the country and the city, and the end is heartbreaking.
And her delicate countenance is by no means profane, because she is full of nobility in her own right. In addition, his words and deeds are all regular and elegant, and his every move contains a certain rhythm that makes people comfortable, so even if he has the heart to provoke, he has to be defeated in front of Miss Seven.
It's just that the girl is a good girl, but it's a pity that she met someone else.
Jin Niang felt sorry for Miss Seven's "cousin-in-law", but she couldn't help but look at Li Hehui, and secretly felt that Xu Erlang, a friend, was really a good friend.
It's just that Li Hehui doesn't just care about talking and feasting with good friends, okay? The beauty is on the side, how many more glances do you have?
I don't think there's anything if I don't pay attention to this situation, but I really noticed, Jin Niang is really unhappy for Miss Seven.
What is this Li Hehui, is this unenlightened, or is he dissatisfied with the beauty? Anyway, since Jin Niang noticed the cold atmosphere between the two, the two haven't looked at each other.
Not only that, but they are afraid that they have forgotten that they are here with their own companions, and each gets along well with their respective "friends", as for the other...... Eh, who am I going out with this time?
Jin Niang was speechless and tired at the same time, she secretly said, if Li Hehui could really marry Miss Seven, she would take off her head and kick it as a ball.
With this thought in her heart, when she went back, Jin Niang wanted to send a few little girls to a carriage behind, and she told Xu Erlang what she had just thought in the carriage in front.
It's a pity that a few little girls didn't buy it at all, and they were coquettish and obsessively hugging Jinniang's arms and thighs, and Jinniang was no matter how tough her mind was, she was dispelled.
Okay, okay, all of them are ancestors, can't they not provoke her?
When I got home, I sent a few little ancestors away, and I bathed with Xu Erlang separately, and when I was lying on the bed, Jin Niang said what she had been holding all the way to.
Xu Erlang's expression was very ...... when he heard the words Inexplicably, "Feelings you think about all the way to these things?" ”
Jin Niang looked blank, "Otherwise, what do you think I think?" ”
Xu Erlang "hehe", and then he didn't explain, so he directly pressed Jin Niang down to harmony.
To be reasonable, the husband and wife have not had sex together since the late stage of Jinniang's pregnancy, and Xu Erlang is the age of a dragon and a tiger, so it is impossible to say that he has not thought about it. But because of Gui Niangzi's suggestion, he didn't dare to open the meat too early.
Originally, when he saw Jin Niang in the carriage, he was still itching and couldn't think about it, but unfortunately, how big the hope is, how big the disappointment is.
She didn't want to, though...... Isn't that thinking?
The husband and wife slept in the middle of the night, and they inevitably got up late the next day.
Fortunately, there is a holiday today, Xu Erlang doesn't have to go to the Yamen, even if he gets up late, it's fine.
Even so, when I got up and saw Xiao Yu'er's contemptuous little eyes, the look of "I don't lie in bed anymore, my father and mother are still in bed, my father and mother are big lazy worms", Jin Niang inevitably blushed. In the end, when I returned to the room, I was angry with Xu Erlang, who was still lying on the bed and didn't want to get up, Jin Niang couldn't help herself and wanted domestic violence, and finally escaped quickly before she came back from domestic violence.
The next day was the 60th birthday of the old lady of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, and all the members of the family went except for Xu Chong, who wanted to rush back to the barracks last night. It was Chang'an and Changping, who were also taken a day off by Xu Erlang to go to Chang for a long time.
Because he is a member of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, although he is already a little far away from the relationship between the five suits. But Jinniang and the others still arrived very early to show their respect for the master's family.
They went out early, expecting to be crowded by the time they arrived. But the truth was beyond Jin Niang's expectations, because the front of Pingxi Hou's Mansion was crowded with carriages at this time. And the people who got out of the carriage were all dressed in fine clothes and carrying heavy gifts.
Some of these people saw Jin Niang, and hurriedly went to the front to greet Jin Niang. The tone is warm and thoughtful, and I don't forget to introduce myself as Jiang Zuo Xu or Jiang Right Xu.
Jin Niang: What is Jiangzuo Xu's family? What is Jiangyou Xu? Isn't the Xu family's base camp in Pingyang Town? So the question is, where did these relatives come from?
Or after Xu Erlang explained, these people have nothing to do with the Xu family. It's just that the surname is "Xu", and in order to tie up with the Pingxi Hou Mansion, he tried to rely on his ancestors to the Xu family.
Don't care how ugly outsiders speak, saying that this kneeling and licking posture is a lot of falls, in short, people get benefits, so they don't care what you say. After all, I don't lose my flesh when I say two words, I'm afraid of a ghost.
Jin Niang finally came to the conclusion that this is really poor in the downtown and no one asks, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains!
Because Xu Erlang is now a close minister of the Son of Heaven and is quite favored by the emperor, Jin Niang also gained a bit of face - when she entered the second gate, she was carried in by a blue curtain sedan chair!
Hey, this treatment is terrible, I think when their family first moved to the capital, she had a big belly and couldn't come to the door in person, Xu Erlang took San Lang and the young Pianpian to "worship the mountain gate", at that time, Pianpian walked in with her little feet. Now it's good, they have been upgraded, and they all have sedan chairs to sit on, which shows the benefits of power.
After getting off the sedan chair, because there was a face-saving grandmother next to Mrs. Pingxihou to pick it up in person, Pianpian's desire to say something to her sister-in-law had to be dispelled. However, she couldn't move her mouth, but it didn't prevent Pian Pian from squeezing her eyebrows behind her back to convey her thoughts to Jinniang: It turned out that Pingxi Houfu also looked at the height of the saint's eyebrows.
Jin Niang secretly stared at her, and Pian Pian immediately became honest, and she didn't dare to make an indecent appearance anymore.
She is also a big girl, and when she saw that when she said goodbye, Jinniang was strict with her, and Pian Pian didn't want to be secretly called "Tu Baozi", so even if she still had something to say to her sister-in-law, she had to shut up at this time and walk beside her sister-in-law with Changle in a regular manner.
The outside of Pingxi Hou's Mansion is lively, but the inner courtyard is very quiet. Although there were occasional sounds of laughter, they quickly disappeared again.
Seeing Jinniang's surprised face, the grandmother who took the lead explained considerately, "They are all side branches of the Xu family, and there are also aunts and girls who got married, because they were worried that the family would not be busy at the old lady's birthday banquet, so they came over early to help." ”
After saying this, Mama sighed in her heart, ouch, this is really wrong. said that the people in the house were the side branches of the Xu family, but the one in front of them was the side branch of the side branches...... Come on, don't explain it, the more you explain, the more you can't explain it, and it's all here to offend people.
Jin Niang didn't understand why Mama became a shut gourd in the second half of the road, but after sorting out what Mama said before from beginning to end, Jin Niang found a point that made her laugh.
Come on! She hadn't thought of this aspect yet, but they thought of it for her, and she was embarrassed, so she shut up directly in case she offended.
Shut up, just shut up, anyway, about the affairs of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, she has heard everything she can inquire, and she doesn't need anyone to mention it.
The most important thing is that a confidant by the side of the lady of the main family can mention something to you as a guest who arrives? It's just that someone mentioned it, don't you have to figure out who said this, and what is the intention?
Don't embarrass yourself, there are more dead brain cells, and you will become mentally retarded early, so let's walk honestly.
There are indeed a lot of people gathered in the flower hall where the guests are entertained, but as the leading grandmother said before, none of the people who are here are heavyweights - this is purely Jin Niang's self-interpretation. But I have to say that she has no problem with this interpretation at all.
There wasn't even a heavyweight here before, but Jin Niang came over, and Mrs. Shizi was invited to come out to entertain guests. As for Mrs. Pingxihou and the old lady, don't think about seeing them for the time being, and some of them are waiting.
I can't see today's protagonist, but the legendary boss of Pingxi Houfu, although Jin Niang has some regrets, but that regret is also fleeting. Because this is her first public appearance after entering Beijing, she still has a lot to socialize at this time, and she has no time to put too much thought into the old lady and lady of Pingxi Hou Mansion, so she has to deal with those side branch ladies who are slightly related by blood.
Those ladies may be accustomed to flattering the women and old ladies of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, in short, they are very particular about speaking, and they are still in a set, and they don't say it in their ears, and they still make people have the desire to continue listening, and they don't get bored at all. But when Jin Niang thought about it afterwards, she couldn't help but say "heh", people don't just want to be happy and flatter you, people want to benefit from you. Jin Niang found that some people wanted to follow her path and send her son to be a small official, and some people turned around and recommended her to her for their sons and daughters who are both civil and military...... What is this? The relationship is not only worried about her family, but even Saburo is worried about it?
Jin Niang's heart was a little blocked, her mood was much worse, and her interest in talking to people next faded.
It was also at this time that a few people who had a friendly relationship with the Pingxi Hou Mansion came outside. These two families have an in-law relationship with the Pingxi Hou Mansion and are relatively close, so they came first before many distinguished guests came to the door.
At this time, Mrs. Pingxihou and the old lady both appeared.
Mrs. Pingxi Hou is definitely in line with Jin Niang's imagination, she is a middle-aged woman with a beautiful appearance, although she is close to her age, but because of her proud maintenance, she looks like she is only about thirty years old. She is beautiful and supposedly should be easy to contact, but she is not.
As we all know, Mrs. Pingxi Hou has a strong desire to control and is a well-known figure in the Hou Mansion. Because I am capable, and because my mother's family is also noble, plus I have added three men to the Hou Mansion, and the old lady is a stepmother, she is not easy to manage things, and the Hou Ye is also very fond of her, and many other reasons, Mrs. Pingxi Hou is really good at saying in the Hou Mansion.
She is dignified and not smiling, and she looks like a noble lady who is afraid to climb high. Not to mention, Jin Niang is the most worried about this kind of person, she feels uncomfortable talking to people, and she feels that the whole person is being crushed. That kind of domineering aura, reasoning is not something that no one can adapt to.
Fortunately, the reason why Mrs. Hou is Mrs. Hou is because she has mastered skills that others have not mastered.
She seems to be cold and difficult to touch, but when she really greets people, it makes people feel like a spring breeze, and she suddenly feels flattered.
Others don't know if Jin Niang has this kind of experience, anyway, when she was called to talk by Mrs. Pingxi Hou, she suddenly had a magical feeling that Mrs. Hou was not difficult to touch, and after reflection, Jin Niang felt that she must have been enchanted at that time.
