Chapter 372: Knock on Old Lady Kou
Chapter 372: Knock on Old Madam Kou
Before Shang Ruonan had time to look at the people in the whole room, Mrs. Murong Tai, who was in a hurry to salute as soon as she came in, stepped forward to greet her directly.
"Baoyu has seen her mother. Mother, look at who I brought you. ”
Then he pulled behind him and directly pulled Shang Ruonan to his side.
Shang Ruonan really sighed a little, his future mother-in-law was indeed a little excited. Shang Ruonan also stepped forward and saluted the old lady seriously:
"Shang Ruonan knocks on the old lady, the old lady is an!"
"Well, get up, get up and I'll see."
Shang Ruonan kowtowed, then stood up. Standing there neither humble nor arrogant, not stage frightened at all.
The old lady looked up and down, nodded and said:
"How old is a bold girl?"
"Back to the old lady, Ruonan is over eight years old this year."
"It's only eight years old, it's still young, it's still young."
Mrs. Murong Tai, who was protecting the ransom, couldn't tolerate others saying that Shang Ruonan was wrong, so she immediately stood up and said:
"Mother, don't look at Ruo Nan as small, Ruo Nan is capable."
"Look, it's still protected! Have a virtue with your sister-in-law! ”
Shang Ruonan warmly looked back at Mrs. Murong Tai, who was protecting him, and smiled lightly, even the Tan family on the side also smiled.
"Ruonan, come here, I have seen Mrs. Chengde Houtai, who is also Qing'er's aunt. This is the little aunt. ”
Shang Ruonan turned around and saluted the Tan family again, and then saluted Mrs. Kou. She bowed and stepped back and stood behind Mrs. Murong, while Shang Nianlan stood up and saluted Mrs. Murong again!
"Okay, sit down." The old lady commanded.
Only then did Mrs. Murong pull Shang Ruonan to sit on the chair below the Tan family. Shang Ruonan also learned from his sister to stand behind Mrs. Murong Tai.
But Mrs. Murong was reluctant to let her stand, so she hurriedly called a girl in the house to carry two embroidered stools and sit down for the two young ladies of the merchant.
In this way, the Shang Ruonan sisters each sat behind their future mother-in-law. After sitting down, Shang Ruonan saw that it was Mrs. Kou sitting opposite!
On the chair to the right of the old lady, it was Mrs. Kou who was sitting.
Mrs. Kou is dressed a little grandly today, and she looks like she has been specially dressed. The clothes are embroidered brocade with a bright red background. The head is also a complete set of gold heads. It looks like all of them are shiny on their heads.
What made Shang Ruonan have some thoughts were the two girls sitting next to Mrs. Kou, one of whom looked a little older than himself. only said that Mrs. Kou has a daughter, and this little girl is eight points similar to Mrs. Kou, it seems that this is the one.
The other one, who didn't look very good, looked a little stiff, and looked at the eldest sister with a very friendly look. I don't know who this one is.
Shang Ruonan was thinking about it, and the girl also stood up and walked over with small steps.
I've always been very arrogant when I walk, and I just walk straight ahead anyway. And look at people, people really walk without shaking three steps. fantasy
One is that the step on the head will not shake, and I heard that if it shakes, it means that you can't learn etiquette at home. The second is not to shake the shoulders. Because the shoulders are protected by the hands on the stomach, the shoulders are not shaken.
The third is that the waist does not shake, there is no crooked walk, and there is no twisting of the waist, the feeling is that the upper body of the whole person is walking straight towards you, but the feet are taking small steps.
If you don't look at your feet, people just float over. Shang Ruonan looked a little stunned, he didn't expect people to walk like this, and this is the correct posture for girls to walk that Mama Lu said last time.
The girl who came over walked up to Mrs. Murong and bowed slightly
"Xu Yingying has seen her aunt, please say hello to her aunt."
"Huh? This is? ”
Obviously, Mrs. Murong didn't know who this girl was. You still call yourself aunt, so what is?
Kou Baoyu looked up at her sister-in-law, because this girl was sitting next to her just now.
Seeing Kou Baoyu looking over, Mrs. Kou raised her handkerchief to cover her mouth with some amusement and said with a smile:
"Baoyu can't recognize it, right? This is my niece, who has played with Ziyu Pearl since she was a child, and now I heard that her second cousin is back, so I came to play for two days! ”
Well? That's a lot of information!
People are here for Kou Ziyu!
Even the Tan family, who has always cared about these idle things, was stunned when he heard this introduction of the Kou family. Then he continued to sit with a blank face.
When Mrs. Kou finished saying this, she also deliberately looked at Shang Nianlan's expression, but she didn't expect Shang Nianlan to seem like she didn't understand, and her gentle smile was still hanging, and there was no fluctuation at all.
Instead, Shang Ruonan looked at the girl in front of him seriously. looks like a little beauty, except for a tear mole at the corner of the eye that makes people look a little crying, the whole person is still very beautiful, and he can handle it.
Kou Baoyu is a very direct person, hearing such an introduction, she originally stretched out to pull this girl's hand and retracted it, and her face darkened all of a sudden, in her opinion, this is the little sister-in-law who wants to do something again.
Mrs. Kou said such a sentence, and she didn't say anything else.
How could the old lady sitting on the top seat not understand some of these things. The old lady coughed and said:
"Pearl, you don't bow to your aunt, there are no rules."
Although the old lady is accusing people, in fact, the pampered smile on her face can be seen by everyone. This one is called Kou Pearl, but she is not Mrs. Kou's own, but she takes this daughter with her as if she were her own. She doesn't have a daughter anyway.
Kou Pearl is the daughter of a concubine of Marquis Kou, but when this concubine gave birth to a child, she died of hemorrhage, leaving only this daughter.
Therefore, although Kou Pearl is a concubine, it is completely raised according to the concubine. Mrs. Kou dotes on her very much, and she is also very well-behaved, so Mrs. Kou also spoils her very much.
"Yes, grandmother, I was slow and didn't rob my cousin."
After saying that, she also stood up, and walked over to salute Mrs. Murong with the same kind of step-by-step action.
Mrs. Murong Tai has always wanted to have more children, but I don't know why, since this Kou Pearl was a child, she didn't like this girl.
Once, Mrs. Kou also mentioned that she wanted to give Kou Pearl to Murong Qing, and the two families became closer. But Mrs. Murong directly refused at that time. The reason given at that time was that Murong Qing was still in charge of this matter.
Then there was the matter of Murong Houye, so this matter was delayed, and then suddenly Murong Qing ordered Shang Ruonan when his filial piety was about to end.
