Chapter 139: Guest

be a guest

Who would have thought that this Mrs. Hong was a distant relative of Pang's sister-in-law, and the meaning was more revealed, that Mrs. Hong originally intended to marry, and when she heard that the Shen family also asked people to inquire, she simply posted a post and invited her to come to the house to sit.

Shen couldn't cry or laugh when he received the post, he had always spoken vaguely before the children's family affairs were discussed, firstly, for fear of ruining the reputation of his daughter's family, and secondly, for fear that he would become an enemy if he did not succeed in marrying.

This Mrs. Hong is also a little taboo, and she directly wrote the name of the fifth girl An Chi on the invitation, and only said that she invited the Shen family and the girls in the family to come, and the Shen family was not easy to refuse.

I simply picked a few girls from the school during the holidays and brought them to Hongfu.

An Chi had heard about Hong's post as early as a few days ago, and his face was so red that he couldn't see anyone, and when he heard Shen and Mrs. An talk, he immediately got up and went out.

It was Mrs. An who asked her to just sit down, "Listen too, this Mrs. Hong didn't specifically mention anyone, it can be seen that she knows it in her heart." ”

"What she means is that she really likes our family, and she doesn't need to be told by others to tell us to see it ourselves."

"It's also intentional."

"Since this is the case, we know each other, then Sister Chi, you should also go over and take a look, take a look at their wife, relatives, and brothers and sisters, this may be the person you will deal with in the future!"

An Chi's face was about to burn, but he also knew that his grandmother was right, so he had to nod shyly.

Shen also specially asked An Chi's clothes the day before, went to her yard to see them, and changed them for her before he came back with confidence.

An Shu and An Cheng naturally didn't know the reason for this, and An Shu also asked Shen, "Mother has never had anything to do with the Hong Mansion, why did they post today to invite the two of us to be guests?" ”

Without waiting for Shen's answer, he thought of the answer again, "I saw Miss Hong in the school, her temperament is very refreshing, which suits my temper, and I guess her mother is the same." ”

"It was at the big sister's wedding banquet, you talked? She thinks her mother can be friends? ”

Shen saw that An Shu could think of a reason for herself, and she also saved herself the thought of lying, "Exactly." ”

An Shu nodded, and stopped asking guests.

After all, Hongfu is a military general, and the rules at home are not strict. There are also fewer back-and-forth courtesies.

It stands to reason that Hongfu is also a fourth-grade military attachΓ©, but there is a huge martial arts arena at home, and there is a faint sound of martial arts training.

The maid who led them the way smiled, "This is our uncle and master practicing martial arts." ”

"The lord is very strict with the uncle, and often says that you can't slack off in martial arts, and the uncle himself works hard, according to my wife, it will be over next year, and I want to get a fame."

The maid didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional when she said this, An Shu and An Cheng heard it, but An Chi pondered it carefully in her heart, and was stunned.

An Shu's sharp eyes saw it at this time, and she couldn't help but wonder, "What is my sister looking at?" Why are you stunned? ”

An Chi came back to his senses and said with a smile, "The scenery in Hongfu's house is not quite the same as ours, it looks like there are fewer flowers and trees, but it looks more sparse. ”

The layout of Anfu pays attention to the winding paths and secluded, and a flower and a tree can tell an allusion, but this Hongfu is a scene of opening and closing, without any elaborate carving, and paying attention to freedom and practicality.

The maid smiled again, "This mansion is not like this, it was all changed by the lady later, saying that we military generals, why bother to learn the meaning of those literary crepes, it is better to follow your mind." ”

"Practical and practical is the best."

"The lord has never cared about these things in the inner house, it is up to the lady, and the lady is in charge, and now it is in line with the temper of the lady."

"And our uncle and girl also said yes."

"It's just that the houses that were built at the beginning are now empty, and no one has lived in them."

An Shu knew Hong Xia, a Hong girl, in the school, and knew something about the situation at home, "There are fewer people in your family, but it is a place to stop." ”

An Chi looked at An Shu and wanted to ask, but he was in the way of the maid's face, so it was difficult to speak.

When the maid went to the front to pass the word and saw that there were no people from the Hong family around, An Chi quietly pulled An Shu's sleeve, "You just said that they have few families?" What does that mean? ”

An Shu didn't realize that An Chi also liked to listen to these gossip, and was a little surprised, but the Hong family didn't say anything about it, and it was not impossible for An Chi to ask.

"It is said that the lord of the Hong family has some grievances with the clan, so he had to come out early to stand on his own, and it was also without the support of the family, otherwise he would not have been just a fourth-grade official for so many years."

"This Hong family has no aunts and concubines, and the population is smaller than ours, just the old lady, Hong Xia and her brother are four people."

"According to Hong Xia, the relatives who come and go in their family are colleagues or Mrs. Hong's mother's side."

When An Chi heard this, his heart moved slightly.

No wonder Mrs. Hong has the confidence to invite An Chi to come, she also knows that her own family is like this, for An Chi, it is a very desirable place, there are few people, it is clean, and there is nothing difficult at home.

While thinking about it, several girls had also been invited into the house, and Mrs. Hong smiled when she saw them, and pulled An Chi with one hand, looked and looked, and praised and praised.

"This girl is really good-looking and good-natured, she is worthy of being trained by the old lady and Princess Wei in the family, I have the heart to praise a few more words, but I don't know what to say."

"Girl, don't blame me for being abrupt."

"It's not good at home, a room of generals, poetry and books are worse than those of you, Hong Xia learned in the academy is like that, it's a pity that there is one less person in the family who can read and understand etiquette, and I ......regret it for so many years."

Mrs. Hong said to herself and hurriedly laughed, "Look at me, the girl is talking about her own family in front of her, don't be surprised by the girl." ”

Then he let go of An Chi's hand, pulled An Shu An Cheng and finally looked at An Mei, and smiled at Shen, "It's all good, I don't know which one to praise." ”

Then someone brought a meeting gift, "I was in a hurry to meet last time, and I didn't have anything good here, but today I met the girls calmly, and I just had a little heart." ”

Over there, the Shen family has also prepared a gift for Hong Xia, and Hong Xia has already accepted it generously, and they are not embarrassed anymore, so they only thank you and accept it.

The Hong family's garden is nothing to see, Hong Xia led them to sit around and came back, chatting with An Shu along the way, An Chi listened attentively, it was just the words of some little girls, and she didn't mention the rights and wrongs of other people's families at will, and she was even more sure in her heart.

In the banquet hall, Mrs. Hong had already prepared a banquet, "I heard Sister Xia talk about the difference between the girls' tables that day, and I thought about it, in the middle of summer, whoever eats those meats will imitate the preparation, and the girls should not be disgusted and lazy." ”
