Mrs. Gao shook her head, "No, no, it's just that your belly is not very big, and I was surprised to hear that you were pregnant......

Liu Jixiang nodded, "So that's the case, in fact, I'm almost 5 months pregnant, but my belly hasn't gotten bigger!" ”

Mrs. Gao nodded stiffly, and after talking to Liu Jixiang for a while, she sent the person away, and then slumped in the chair and sighed, "What kind of sin are you doing?" Could it be that the daughters of those high-ranking officials and nobles have taken a fancy to our family, and we have to give them up, what is the reason? Do people have children? ”

The maid walked out, "Madam, don't worry about it, that Master Li has already refused this matter, even if those people are tempted, they will not lick their faces to the door, as for that Mrs. Liu, you have also seen it, they already have a son and are pregnant with another, then Lord Li will never abandon Mrs. Liu!" ”

Mrs. Gao nodded, "I hope so, I am quite close to this Mrs. Liu, I don't want him to leave like this, otherwise there will be no one to talk to at that time!"

But that Lord Li is also an infatuated person, I heard that even the county lord likes him very much, but the people Lord Li said that people have families, and he did not hesitate to refuse the county lord, it's really amazing, this is going to be spread on my father-in-law, my father-in-law may just divorce me and marry the county lord! ”

The maid persuaded softly: "Madam, you think too much, according to the appearance of the master, the daughter of a big family can't look down on him, and you don't dislike his ugly appearance, so you are willing to marry the master!" ”

Hearing the maid say this, Mrs. Gao slapped her thigh, "That's, I'm a flower on cow dung!" ”

But this is just a casual joke between the master and the servant, even if the tall man is ugly, he has good facial features, after all, an ugly person can't be an official.

Here, Liu Jixiang always suspected that Mrs. Gao had something to say, but he couldn't guess what Mrs. Gao was thinking.

As a result, I didn't expect that the next day, Liu Jixiang received another post, or a post in the prince's mansion, my God, it can't be said to be strange, like them, seven-grade officials don't have much to rely on, and those high-ranking officials and nobles don't look down on them at all to receive these posts, which is equivalent to taking a lot of luck.

Liu Jixiang has no bottom in his heart, let's go, he is afraid that others will say that she has no rules, and he is even more afraid of causing trouble to his husband, maybe he will go, and there is no point in his heart, because this is for no reason, why would this dignitary banquet her? After thinking about it, I decided to go.

Liu Jixiang brought two sensible maids and explained that no matter what happened to them, they would stay by their side, and they would not reply to anything others said.

"Don't blame me for being so strict, our class is not an ordinary family, it's a real high-gate compound, I'm a guest invited by the host, if you do something wrong and say something wrong, at most you will be laughed at by someone, but you are scared, if you say something wrong or do something wrong, then you have to be beaten to death by others, even if I want to help you, there is no reason, so you have to be careful, don't say what you shouldn't say, unless you have to try not to speak!"

A few maids were frightened, and the Li family knew that Liu Jixiang had received a post from the palace, and they were also clamoring to go.

"Why don't I go? I'm my son's mother-in-law, I'm the biggest in this family, and besides, I haven't been to the palace to see when I'm so old, you can take me to see the world! "Lee's strong demand.

Liu Jixiang was noisy and had a headache, "Mother-in-law, it's not that I won't take you there, but I really don't understand, why is this Hou Mansion entertaining me for no reason, you said that our family has no backer, Xianggong is just a seven-grade petty official, and it is nothing at all in this process, in the eyes of those high-ranking officials and nobles, it is like an ant!"

I can't figure it out when I think about it, I don't want to go, and I'm afraid of delaying the future of the project, so I can only go with fear, I don't believe you ask these maids, I told them what mother-in-law, it's not that I don't take you there, but you haven't learned all the rules, if I take you there, if something happens, wouldn't it be a loss of face for Xianggong, can you bear to let Xianggong can't hold his head up in front of those colleagues? ”

Li Shi was stunned, "But...... But that's the prince, I've never seen the prince, I've only seen it in those dramas, ouch, hey......"

"Mother-in-law, what's so difficult about this, the prince can do it, sooner or later, one day you will become the lady of the command, let alone the prince, maybe even the queen mother in the palace can see it!" Liu Jixiang patted Li's hand, "So the most important thing now is to finish learning the rules!" ”

Li sighed, he could only resign himself to his fate, as for Liu Jixiang to go to someone else's place as a guest, he couldn't wear too shabby, Liu Jixiang asked people to make a dress and let people go out with a pair of jewelry.

Because of her pregnancy, Liu Jixiang wore flat shoes, and they were thick flat shoes, and she also used needles and threads to set a few stripes on them, so that they played an anti-slip role, even if they touched the oil, or what kind of room or something, they would not slip.

On that day, Liu Jixiang asked the housekeeper to find a carriage and take the maid to the banquet, but when they arrived at the gate of the palace, the housekeeper did not let them in at all.

"Heh, it's funny, you say go in, what about the invitation?" The butler lifted his chin and looked down on people.

When Liu Jixiang heard this, he frowned slightly, "But you ......"

Liu Jixiang didn't say any more, and then clapped his hands, "Look at my head, since I became pregnant, my confidence has been getting worse and worse."

It's my mistake that we didn't receive the invitation from the palace, we came to the wrong place, I'm really sorry, we don't know any rules when we first arrived, if there is nothing to do first, then I will go back with the maid first, it really bothers you! ”

After Liu Jixiang finished speaking, he turned around and left with the maid and mother-in-law, but the housekeeper took a step forward in a hurry, "You...... You're a woman, just come and go, what do you think of this place? ”

Liu Jixiang looked back, "Huh? I know that this is the palace, and I also know that the rules of the palace are strict, but I just came to ask, and besides, the people invited to the banquet of the Hou Mansion are all guests, butler, are you a little rude to the guests like this? ”

The housekeeper was stunned, yes, people just came to ask, if he continued to entangle like this, it would be a loss of the face of the palace.

"That'...... Then since you are here, come in and sit down...... "No matter what, the housekeeper still remembers the explanation of the little county lord, no matter what, he must ask someone to stay."
