Chapter 377: The First Meeting with the Ladies of Kyochu
With Lianjia's words, the merchant sisters took a look, so the palace attached great importance to picking up the sisters, but the more this is the case, the more details they should pay attention to.
So, with the help of the girls, I quickly changed my clothes. While they were changing their clothes, Mama Meng and Lian Jia were also standing on the side to make some final additions to them, hoping that the two sisters would be safe when they entered the palace.
After quickly packing up, the sisters quickly returned to the antechamber. Mama Li saw the sisters who had been dressed up again, and nodded with satisfaction, no wonder the sisters would dress themselves, it seems that it is true, the style of this dress looks quite simple, but some small accessories are made with some care, and the ornaments on the head and some patterns on the body can be seen to echo each other. And the whole body exudes a kind of breath that makes people feel comfortable.
Mama Li is a well-informed person. I also have some appreciation for these sisters in my heart.
In terms of time, it was already a little urgent, so Mama Li took them to the civilian car. The two marquis followed aside, riding horses to the Huayang Palace.
When they arrived at the Huayang Palace, the two marquis were naturally led to the outer study to sit and drink tea. And the carriage of the merchant sisters drove directly to the second gate of the inner courtyard.
The eldest girl of the county lord of Huayang, the last time Shang Ruonan saw Yiqing, she took two little girls to wait at the second gate, and when she saw the carriage coming, she immediately greeted her and greeted the merchant sisters to get off the carriage.
Shang Nianlan and Shang Ruonan also brought a few people in this time, the red clothes and the green clothes must be there, as well as Peony and Mama Lu. And with Shang Nianlan, it is Lily and Pothos, these two girls are usually qualified as old people in the Shang Mansion, but they are a little cowardly when they arrive in the capital, and they generally don't make a sound, just follow their own young lady and take care of their young lady.
Because Shang Nianlan's side did not have anyone who had stayed in the capital, so even the family came today, and there was only one girl Mu Jin by Tan's side, and Mu Jin had always followed Tan to live in the nunnery, so naturally he was not very familiar with the things in Beijing. Therefore, in the end, the two grandmothers from Mrs. Murong Tai's side followed.
I believe that with their care, the two young ladies will make fewer mistakes.
Seeing Yiqing, Shang Ruonan smiled and said
"The girl is getting more and more beautiful."
"Yiqing has seen Miss Four, and I have met Miss Shang."
Yiqing stepped forward and saluted, and also smiled at Shang Ruonan, expressing three points of closeness. A few girls also unloaded some of the things they brought in an orderly manner. The red, green, and Mama Lu lilies followed Mama Li in advance. Lian's family, Peony and Pothos helped pack up their things, and were taken by the two little girls to the place where they were going to live.
Coming to the palace again, Shang Ruonan obviously felt the current jubilant atmosphere in the palace. Because the day after tomorrow is the wedding, some distant relatives have begun to arrive. The government is also nervously making some final preparations.
There are more flowery flowers in the house. Red lanterns have also been hung everywhere, and some places have made some decorations, which can be seen.
Shang Nianlan had heard her sister mention it several times before she came to the capital, so she naturally knew what to do in the big families in the capital. But Rao is so, and he is also a little nervous.
followed Mama Li to the main room in the backyard. The princess is meeting the guests inside. Naturally, the county lord also sat together. The people who came were the wives of several important ministers in Beijing, and they came in advance to give a gift.
The little girl came in and replied
"Back to the princess, Mama Li picked up the eldest lady and the fourth lady of the merchant."
The princess nodded, and the county lord immediately stood up and said excitedly
"Hurry up, please."
"Look at you girl, you are in a hurry."
As he was talking, a few people who came in from outside the door also attracted the attention of the people in the house, and everyone looked at each other, the sister of this merchant, or did Mama Li personally invite her? It seems that it is indeed unusual, and some well-informed people know that the merchant sisters are the two girls who are engaged to the Lianghou Mansion.
The ill-informed lady continued to think about which girl's face was so big, or Mama Li went to pick it up. They all stretched out their heads to look at it.
I saw that Mama Li brought in two girls, one was taller, wearing a light purple top, but the lower skirt was dark purple, and from the end of the clothes, they were all gradually changing colors, and every step of the way, you could feel that the dark purple below was moving upward, as if the color was rising.
Coupled with the folded skin, a pair of big eyes with a calm smile in it, came forward to bow to the princess under the guidance of Mama Li, and the movements were very good-looking.
There's a shorter girl in the back, so she looks a little smaller. It's also like a pair of big eyes shining with a moving light, and her clothes look very different, because it's a boy, and it's a girl's dress, and it's a girl, and some places look like a boy. And the hair was not tied in a bun like these girls, but tied in a long ponytail on the top of the head, with a few colorful ribbons of beautiful colors floating. It looks great.
Shang Ruonan also stepped forward to salute the princess, and the princess was also busy asking Mama Li to help people up. The princess laughed
"Come on, come on, but I can look forward to you, our county lord has been thinking about you every day for the past two days, Fang Fei, bring two stools for the two merchant girls, and sit beside me."
"Yes!"
Shang Ruonan on the side of Fang Fei had also seen it, Shang Ruonan smiled at her, Fang Fei smiled and went to bring two little girls to bring two embroidered stools, both between the county lord and the princess.
The princess waited for them to sit down and said with a smile
"The people in this house are all these ladies in the capital. Ladies and gentlemen, there may be some people who don't know these two sisters. This is the eldest girl of the merchant and the fiancée of Chengdehou. This is the fiancée betrothed by Marquis Murong. ”
"Come, Ruonan, I'll introduce you sisters to these ladies."
Saying that, Princess Huayang personally introduced these ladies with her sisters.
Sitting in the first place on the lower left of Princess Huayang is a middle-aged woman who looks like she has been born with a lot of hair, but it seems that she is not the kind of person who is easy to get along with, because she may be serious for a long time, so her face is not soft at all, but very hard.
"This is Mrs. Pang, the wife of the Ministry of Justice."
"Shang Nianlan, Shang Ruonan, have seen Mrs. Pang."
The sisters also gave Mrs. Pang a salute under the introduction of the princess. Mrs. Pang did not stand up, but still sat down and bowed in return
"The two girls are so handsome."
As he spoke, he took off two gold bracelets from his hands and gave them to the two sisters. The two sisters also bowed and thanked them again.
"This is Mrs. Xiao Pang, Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and she is Mrs. Pang's sister."
When I heard it, it turned out that the two ladies of Shangshufu were still sisters, and at a glance, the two looked really similar, one was very serious and the other was very gentle.
Shang Ruonan also remembered that in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Industry, he still knew a Miss Feng. Last time, Miss Feng Xianghui came to the store and had a conversation, maybe that's it, looking at Mrs. Xiao Pang, Shang Ruonan also felt more cordial.
