Chapter 249: A Visit from the Qi Family (I)
In the next three days, Mrs. Qi visited frequently, naturally Ying Shu was so "unwell" that is, she was not well for three days, and it was not until the fourth day that Ying Shu slowly put down a bowl of tea and said to Xiangli: "Since it is Mrs. Qi who has been here for so many days, it is not good for me not to go." Anyway, let's go quickly. ”
She slowly dressed up again, and slowly walked to the main hall with the help of fragrant pears and apricots, and saw two middle-aged women and a young woman waiting anxiously in the main hall. ”
Ying Shu and Mrs. Qi Xu have had several relationships. It's just that the status at that time was completely inferior to today, so even a simple greeting was full of gunpowder, and I didn't have time to take a closer look at the biological mother of the crown princess.
Although Mrs. Qi is nearly forty years old, she looks the same as her daughter, and at a glance she knows that she is her biological mother and daughter, except for wrinkles, she naturally has more of a stable atmosphere than her daughter who does not know the importance of life and death, but it is also the appearance of everyone's housewife.
"Mrs. Qi is very polite." Ying Shu politely ordered someone to help Mrs. Qi sit down, and just smiled: "You are an elder, I should have gone to see you in person." I don't know what kind of wind is blowing you, but my junior can't afford it! ”
The anxious resentment on Mrs. Qi's face could not be easily hidden, but she could force a smile at Ying Shu, she looked at Ying Shu, and was not in the mood to drink the tea that came up from the slave on the side, so she only said: "Madame is Mrs. Hou, I am just a second-grade lady, that is, according to the etiquette system, I should also ask Mrs. for peace." "Mrs. Qi used to be somewhat proud and disgusted with Ying Shu, but now she is just full of laughter and flattery, but she is not out of proportion.
"Alas, it's all because of the light of the Hou Ye." Ying Shu replied with a smile. People intend to respect and elevate themselves, and they are also willing to put on a shelf of a noble wife, slowly pick up the tea cup from the table on the side, take a shallow sip, and only praise: "This cloud is good, and with good red dates, it is sweet and fragrant, Madame, try it." ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Qi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, so she reluctantly picked up the teacup and drank it indiscriminately, forgetting to blow it, but burned her mouth.
"Madam, you can't drink good tea in this hurry! Since Madame has come to talk to me, it is better to calm her heart! ”
He is not a white lotus, and he can't forget the unpleasant things he suffered because of the Qi family in the past, and he deeply dislikes the Qi family. Naturally, he is not a saint, so he can't distinguish between this family, and this Mrs. Qi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, anyway, people have been waiting for a few days, and he can't have a reputation for being gentle and virtuous, so he simply "reveals his true nature", but it's okay.
"Oh, good." Mrs. Qi was embarrassed and anxious, so she had to take a shallow sip of the teacup again, blew a few times patiently, and barely took a sip until she could eat.
"How?" Ying Shu still looked at Mrs. Qi with a harmless smile, looking infatuated with the tea ceremony.
Well, although by her own admission, she simply couldn't taste what this tea tasted like.
"Hmm...... Fabulous. Where is there anything bad about this thing in the Yongfu Marquis Mansion? Mrs. Qi was obviously not in the state, and only said casually.
"Yo, Madame is really good at laughing. My Hou Mansion is very good, but it is not as exaggerated as Madame said. There are too few people in my house, which is the biggest bad, isn't it, ma'am? Ying Shu still said with a wicked smile.
"This ......," Mrs. Qi continued to embarrass.
"My wife and I laughed mischievously, just watching my wife bring so many people to think of it." Ying Shu turned her gaze to the two ladies standing behind Mrs. Qi, one old and one young, and asked kindly, "...... these two?"
Mrs. Qi hurriedly put down the teacup and got up and introduced it to Ying Shu with a smile, first pointing to one of the older women: "This is our master's Ru Madame Bai," and then pointed to a younger woman with an honest and respectful face behind her: "This is the daughter-in-law of my second brother." ”
Ying Shu directly chose to ignore this Aunt Bai, and said to the second Qi grandmother: "It turns out to be the second sister-in-law of the Qi family, sit down quickly." ”
Grandma Qi Er looked at Mrs. Qi a little nervously, with a hint of weakness and hesitation in her eyes, and then her eyes fell on the white aunt, and after looking left and right, she sat down, gently pulled out a handkerchief from her arms and said to Ying Shu: "Thank you, madam." ”
"The second sister-in-law is really polite. I have long heard that the second sister-in-law is capable and manages the entire Qi family very well. Ying Shu said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, try this tea quickly, specially prepared." ”
In this way, among the ladies visited by the Qi family, only this Aunt Bai did not have a seat to sit.
Ying Shu didn't plan to give this Qi family's concubine a place, although this concubine was also a good concubine brought by the Qi family from outside.
Although, he is a modern person who upholds the idea that everyone is equal.
But the concubine room is the concubine room, even if he upholds the concept of equality for everyone, but in this era, it seems that there is no need to pay attention to the equality of everyone.
And the appearance of the white aunt's thief eyebrows and rat eyes, at first glance, she doesn't feel like a good person, she is a layman, so she can't help but judge people by her appearance.
Obviously, that Aunt Bai did not live up to Ying Shu's expectations, seeing that Ying Shu didn't pay attention, she patted her knee directly, and stepped forward to pretend to be affectionate: "Oh, isn't this Mrs. Yongfu Hou?" No wonder everyone outside says that Mrs. Yongfu Hou is young and beautiful, and she is the most capable, and now that she looks at it, she really deserves her reputation! "This Aunt Bai is ripe, but she stepped forward to grab Yingshu without permission, but she was stopped by Xiangli and Apricot when she was halfway away.
"Auntie, please stop, our wife is pregnant now, and it's not easy to get close to people."
The white aunt was stunned for a moment, and then turned her eyes angrily, "What is the truth of this?" I'm here to be close to my wife, why dare you, a slave, stop me? ”
Xiangli replied without humility or arrogance: "My aunt is just Mrs. Ru, and if she wants to see our wife, she has to go through the ceremony and get the permission of our lady." Aren't you too disrespectful of etiquette? ”
That Aunt Bai thought that she was extremely favored in the Qi family, but now she is still arrogant when she arrives at the Yongfu Hou Mansion, she is very surprised, and she doesn't care about the fragrant pear, and she seems to have completely forgotten that this is someone else's family: "You slave is so arrogant, do you know who I am!" Yes? ”
Xiangli didn't care, and only took out the momentum of the housekeeper's maid: "The slave only knows that you are just an aunt and a concubine." If it is really according to the identity theory, we don't have anyone more noble than whom, please be respectful. Our Mrs. Hou is in front of you, don't be presumptuous. ”
Aunt Bai has obviously never been "neglected" like this, and she was angered by Xiangli, she was already an irrational person, and now she was even more angry and wanted to beat: "You!" ”
Naturally, on the territory of the Hou Mansion, Aunt Bai would not succeed in being so presumptuous, as soon as her hand was raised high, she was given a life, and everyone looked at it, and it was Jin Feng who rushed forward without knowing when.
"You...... You ......" Aunt Bai was very surprised, and she wanted to break free from Jin Feng's control, but how could she, a pampered woman in a deep house, compare to a man like Jin Feng who practiced martial arts all year round, naturally the more she broke free from Jin Feng, the tighter she pinched, which made her cry out in pain.
"Who are you? How dare you do this to me? It's arrogant! Hurry up and let me go! Aunt Bai screamed pompously, and let out a howl like killing a pig.
"Hmph, a lowly person dares to come to the Hou Mansion to spread wilderness. I don't know what the rules are, I just know to protect my wife. ”
"Mrs. Qi, I don't even know, who is this Aunt Bai? Dare to come to my Hou Mansion to be presumptuous, do I still have to be ridden on the head by this concubine like this? Ying Shu watched the play coldly for a long time, and finally spoke.
Mrs. Qi hurriedly got up and smiled: "Mrs. Yongfu Hou, this ......"
Grandma Qi Er on the side also stood up and followed behind Mrs. Qi timidly.
Ying Shu can understand this Qi Er grandmother, the daughter-in-law of the concubine, both of them are her own mothers-in-law, but it is not good to offend either one. That's all there is to it.
Mrs. Qi was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed to Aunt Bai, gave Aunt Bai two slaps, and shouted: "Who allowed you to be so presumptuous? Dare to rush and collide with Mrs. Yongfuhou, it's really a shame for my Qi family! ”
Aunt Bai was very unconvinced, and she wanted to go wild when she covered her face, but as soon as her eyes touched Jin Feng, who was staring like King Kong, she was stunned again, and she actually cried hard: "Sister, isn't this for Brother Xu'er?" Now Brother Xu is suffering in prison, I'm anxious! Where to know...... It's ......"
Ying Shu snorted coldly, helped herself up by the apricot, and slowly took two steps forward. She looked at Aunt Bai condescendingly, and motioned to Jin Feng to let Aunt Bai go, and then said coldly: "I knew that Aunt Bai of the Qi family was favored, but when I saw it today, I knew how powerful Aunt Bai was!" ”
Ying Shu suddenly raised her voice by many degrees, and when she said it coldly, everyone couldn't help but be surprised, "I don't know, is this the rule of the Qi family?" It's okay to take an aunt to visit around, but who can condone a concubine to talk to someone's housewife? In my Hou Mansion, is it because I, Mrs. Hou, are dead, or is it bullying my Hou Ye to be young? Mrs. Qi, you are also from a big family. If there is anything you can say directly, why did you come to the Hou Mansion to humiliate me? ”
