Chapter 120: The Townsman
was pulled by Mrs. Wudingbo, Mrs. Wudingbo, and asked questions of almost the same nature in a row, although Xie Yunjin was a little bored in his heart, but after all, it was the first time to contact Wudingbo's mansion, Xie Yunjin still endured it, and honestly returned to Mrs. Wudingbo.
"Mrs. Wu, Jin Niang came with her grandmother and mother, but my grandmother went to Mrs. Fan's house to talk, and my mother was unwell and went down to rest."
Listening to Xie Yunjin's explanation, Mrs. Wuding let out an "oh" and then replied.
"In that case, when your grandmother and Mrs. Fan say good things, I will go over and see your grandmother again! I haven't seen your grandmother all these years, I don't know her old man, and I don't recognize me as an old woman. ”
After Mrs. Wuding spoke, she introduced Xie Yunjin to a few martial arts girls in the house.
Wuding Bofu, that is, the Wujia family's house.
The Wu family originally had five heads, and the Wu family made its fortune in Qinghe.
Because of the martial arts family's military exploits in the previous dynasty, he was awarded the Wuding Bofu and became one of the families of Da Chen.
The remaining four heads of the Wu family are all in Qinghe, and most of them are merchants.
There are three girls in Wudingbo's mansion.
Wu Qinghe, a girl from Bofu, has married to the Liao family in Zhenjiang.
Wu Qingning, the second girl of Wu, is a girl from Bofu.
Her biological mother is just a little aunt in Bofu, but Mrs. Wuding felt sorry for Miss Wu Er, and after discussing with Uncle Wuding, she raised Miss Wu Er's name in Mrs. Wu Dingbo's house, and said that she was a girl from the Wu family.
When Mrs. Wuding introduced this girl, Xie Yunjin looked at her carefully.
I saw that Wu Qingning, standing beside Mrs. Wuding in a proper manner, waiting for Mrs. Wuding quietly and obediently.
looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate appearance, fair skin, and a coldness in his whole person.
Wearing a turquoise gold branch wrapped in flowers of Hangzhou silk gown, on the top of the gown, but also inlaid with a circle of rice beads that are not too small, the style of this gown, it seems to be a new style that came out in the early summer of this year, Xie Yunjin has never seen it.
From this point of view, although this second girl Wu is the daughter of the family, she is protected by the old lady of Wudingbo, and she is raised under the knee of Mrs. Wudingbo, but I am afraid that this day is no worse than the concubine in the family.
When Xie Yunjin looked at the second girl of Wu.
Wu Qingning also raised his head, glanced at her, and quickly lowered his head.
After seeing Miss Wu Er, Mrs. Wu Ding introduced Miss Wu San again.
"Qingrong girl, this is the third girl of the Xie family in Qiantang, the old lady of their family, but the grandmother's old acquaintance."
Mrs. Wu Dingbo seemed to like Wu Qingrong very much, and when she talked to Wu Qingrong, her face was full of smiles.
Although Mrs. Wu Dingbo also had a smile on her face when she introduced Wu Qingning to Xie Yunjin, Fang Cai's smile was not as true as it is now.
It can be seen that Wu Qingning and Wu Qingrong, who is the person on the tip of Mrs. Wu Dingbo's heart, is already obvious.
Wu Qingrong walked out of the crowd, approached Xie Yunjin, bent down and bowed, and said softly.
"Miss Xie San is fine."
Seeing that Wu Qingrong gave him a salute, Xie Yunjin also politely replied with a salute.
Taking this opportunity, Xie Yunjin raised his eyes and saw a slender and slender girl with a gorgeous appearance standing beside Mrs. Wudingbo.
Judging by her age, she should be younger than Wu Qingning, about thirteen or fourteen, about the same age as Xie Yunjin.
Under the makeup, Xie Yunjin still saw a little immature.
An extremely fluent falling horse bun, a pair of jasper hairpins on the hairpin, and a pair of red gold butterfly hairpins are used to fix the bun.
Except for four hairpins and a jasper beaded flower inlaid with silver beads, Xie Yunjin didn't see any hair ornaments.
If you look closely, she is a good-looking beauty.
Beauty, even if there is no beads on her hair, no powder, and she is still the most conspicuous one in the crowd.
Wu Qingrong in front of her is obviously such a beauty.
If you compare the second girl of Wu and the third girl of Wu together, the appearance of the third girl of Wu is definitely above the second girl of Wu.
Mrs. Wu Ding asked the second girl and the third girl to accompany Xie Yunjin out of the inner room and came to the private room outside.
The second girl didn't speak much, and after leaving the elders, she sat alone in the corner of the room and began to drink tea.
It was Miss Wu San, after Forsythia's introduction, Wu Qingrong, Xie Yunjin, Zhu Yu and others began to come alive.
Because Xie Yunjin and Wu Qingrong met for the first time, they had to exchange gifts, Xie Yunjin asked Ruxiang to look for it, and found a bunch of white jade grapes in the purse that Mrs. Xie gave her.
This bunch of white jade grapes was still stuffed into Mrs. Fan's hands as soon as she entered the Pure Heart Courtyard, and the lady of the Qian family in Hangzhou was stuffed into Mrs. Fan's hands.
Mrs. Fan and the Qian family have no friendship, and such a gift is not valuable, so it was stuffed on Mrs. Xie.
Her grandmother just glanced at it and didn't like it, so she asked Mama Fang to fill her purse and give it to Xie Yunjin.
Xie Yunjin opened his purse and took a look, the white jade grapes were almost the size of half a palm, and the jade quality was also transparent, but unfortunately it was just a common white jade, and the carving was also very ordinary.
If it is replaced with purple jade, even if the carving is average, maybe it will be able to enter the eyes of others.
However, when Xie Yunjin gave this white jade grape to Wu Qingrong, Wu Qingrong felt that it was too precious and almost didn't accept it.
If it weren't for Xie Yunjin saying that such a thing was very ordinary and not worth much, I was afraid that no matter what she said, Wu Qingrong would not accept it.
Wu Qingrong gave Xie Yunjin a handkerchief she had embroidered herself, embroidered like a cat fluttering a butterfly.
Although the patterns are common, Wu Qingrong's embroidery is good, whether it is a cat or a butterfly, it is embroidered vividly.
Xie Yunjin saw it and liked it very much.
After the two sides exchanged gifts, Wu Qingrong and Xie Yunjin forsythia talked about the three sons in Fangcai's house.
"Jin Niang is afraid that she doesn't know, when you came in just now, Chen Yue, the little son of the Funing County Lord's Mansion, came to find my eldest brother and second brother, and I don't know what to say. After a few words in the house, you come in. My eldest brother and second brother saw that you hadn't seen the appearance of the three of them clearly, so he took the little prince of the Funing County Lord's Mansion and went out. I don't know where I went, and I haven't come here yet? I'm afraid I'm going to eat and drink with that little boy Chen again?"
Chen Yue, the youngest son of the Funing County Lord's Mansion, went to find the two sons of Wuding Bo's Mansion, could it be that Funing County Lord's Mansion and Wuding Bo's Mansion are very familiar with each other?
Xie Yunjin was puzzled and asked.
"Good manner, the little son of the Funing County Lord's Mansion came to your family's private room and found your eldest brother and second brother, is your family and the Funing County Lord's Mansion on a good relationship?"
Before Wu Qingrong could speak, Forsythia on the side began to laugh and hurriedly explained for Wu Qingrong.
"Jin Niang shouldn't know, right? The little son of the Funing County Lord's Mansion, and Qingrong's eldest brother and second brother, once studied together in the White Deer Cave Academy and worshiped under the same master. ”
"Because the old lady of Wuding Bofu, when he was young, he also went to Bailudong Academy to study, and saved a great Confucian of Bailudong Academy. Chen Yue is living in Bofu these days. ”
"If it weren't for the letter from the county lord's mother half a month ago, I am afraid that Chen Xiaogongzi would not have attended such a banquet today."
Hearing Forsythia say this, could it be that Chen Yue has a bad relationship with the lord of Funing?
But they are mother and son, how can the relationship be bad?
Could it be that the lord of Funing wanted to decide Chen Yue's marriage, so it led to the disagreement between the two of them?
Xie Yunjin thought about it in his heart, but he never came up with anything, so he decided to ask clearly.
"Chen Xiaogongzi has been in the uncle's mansion these days, hasn't he ever returned to the county lord's mansion? But Chen Xiaogongzi is not compatible with the county lord's mother?"
Hearing Xie Yunjin say this, Forsythia and Wu Qingrong hurriedly exchanged glances.
After looking at each other for a long time, it was decided that Wu Qingrong would speak and explain to Xie Yunjin.
"Good and dignified, why did Jin Niang ask about this?"
Xie Yunjin smiled on his face, hiding his ulterior motives, and only said.
"I'm curious!"
Afraid that Forsythia and Wu Qingrong would doubt themselves, Xie Yunjin hurriedly explained.
"Because I just heard Forsythia say that Chen Xiaogongzi has been living in the Bofu these days. also said that if it weren't for the county lord's mother who held this banquet, I was afraid that Chen Xiaogongzi would not have eaten the banquet. Hearing Forsythia say this, I thought that there was a disagreement between the mother and son between the lord of Funing and Chen Xiaogongzi. ”
Forsythia and Wu Qingrong secretly praised Xie Yunjin in their hearts, Jin Niang is really smart.
Forsythia just mentioned it, and Jin Niang guessed that the relationship between the lord of Funing and Chen Xiaogongzi was not harmonious.
Wu Qingrong shouted to the maid to stay outside the house, and then she dared to lower her voice and say to Xie Yunjin.
"Indeed, as Jin Niang guessed in her heart, the county lord Niangniang and Chen Xiaogongzi have indeed been discordant for a long time. Because of the county lord's mother, Chen Xiaogongzi fell in love with Chen Xian, the second girl of the Xiankang County Palace, that is, Xianhui Xiangjun. ”
"I have always heard that Xianhui Xiangjun is an arrogant and domineering girl, relying on the county king's mansion behind her, and often oppresses the people nearby. is such a girl, not to mention that Chen Xiaogongzi can't look down on her, even my eldest brother and second brother can't look down on her. ”
Wu Qingrong's eldest brother and second brother are Wu Xiuwen, the eldest son of Wuding Bofu, and Wu Xiuwu, the second son.
The two sons of the martial family, if they want to marry that Xianhui Xiangjun, it is obviously impossible.
However, Wu Qingrong was just an analogy, and Xie Yunjin didn't care.
What Xie Yunjin cares about is, what is Chen Yue's attitude in this matter?
But there is no need to guess, Xie Yunjin also knows.
I'm afraid that Chen Yue is unwilling to marry that Xianhui Xiangjun, so he hid in Wudingbo's mansion, right?
