The county lord of Jingyi smiled helplessly, "I borrowed your auspicious words." You are an auspicious star, and what you say will definitely come true. ”

Everyone began to eat and drink, Lu Qianying's eyes often glanced over here, and she found that the county lord of Jingyi didn't seem to have any excessive actions except for arranging her mother's seat and a basin for garbage at her feet.

Lu Qianying can accept such treatment from her mother for the time being, but she also thinks that they should not come.

After everyone ate and drank for a while, the county lord of Jingyi said to everyone: "Today's banquet is held for Mrs. Yuxiu, who is an example for all our women and the pride of all our women. How about the county lord suggest that everyone toast Mrs. Yuxiu together? ”

"Good!"

Everyone responded in unison.

Fu Xiaojiu stood up with his wine glass, and everyone also stood up.

After Fu Xiaojiu drank the wine in the cup, he said to everyone: "Little girl, thank you for the lifting of all the ladies and ladies. Although the little girl has a little false name, she is still an ordinary person, and please how you used to interact with the little girl and how to interact, don't feel that the little girl is high and not easy to approach. ”

A wealthy lady said with a smile: "Mrs. Yuxiu, you are too humble. If we had half your blessing and ability, thank God! ”

The crowd immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, don't be humble. It's a blessing for us to know you. ”

At this time, someone said: "If you want to say that you are blessed, it has to be Mrs. Lu!" Their lord bought the previous house of Mrs. Yuxiu's family with a lot of money, if he lived in it, wouldn't it be more blessed! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were focused on Mrs. Lu.

There was jealousy, disdain, remorse and envy in everyone's eyes.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Mrs. Lu covered her mouth and chuckled: "Hehe, isn't it a great blessing that we can buy Mrs. Yuxiu's house?" Not to mention a thousand taels, even if it is two thousand taels, as long as you can get the blessings of Mrs. Yuxiu's family, it is worth it. ”

The county lord of Jingyi glanced at her with slanted eyes, and said lightly: "This Lord Lu is not comparable to ordinary people. The four-grade officials only have a lot of money a year, but they can get a thousand taels of silver to buy a house. Ladies of the four grades present, tell me, how many of you can get so much silver at once? ”

After the county lord of Jingyi finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Lu again.

Everyone immediately exchanged glances, and the corners of their mouths showed mocking sneers.

How did the Lu family's silver come from, who doesn't know? Don't hide and squint and dare to come out to show off, I'm really not afraid of being reported for corruption and bribery.

Mrs. Lu's face changed instantly, and she hurriedly changed her words: "Don't get me wrong, in order to buy Mrs. Yuxiu's house, I took out all my dowry and our family's savings!" My mother's family had some family background before, and although the dowry was not too much, it was also a thousand taels. Although it has taken some over the years, there is still a surplus. That's all we have in our family, and I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it. ”

However, no one believed what she said, and many people were secretly rolling their eyes.

Mrs. Lu knew that they wouldn't believe it, but she had already said it, even if someone really wanted to do bad in secret, she was not afraid, this was her testimony.

The county lord of Jingyi said with a mocking face: "Mrs. Lu, it seems that you have really invested in the blessings of Mrs. Yuxiu's family!" Even the dowry was put in. Mrs. Lu, when are your family going to move to the newly purchased house? ”

The words of the county lord of Jingyi made her face change again, and Mrs. Lu said with an unnatural smile: "We haven't decided on this yet." In fact, our house was mainly bought for our daughters, and we wanted the two of them to be exposed to the blessings of Mrs. Yuxiu's family. ”

Lu Qianying immediately frowned, and said in her heart, why did you still pull her in?

The county lord of Jingyi said at this time: "Mrs. Lu and Lord Lu are really a good pair of fathers and mothers, and they think so long-term for their children. The Queen Mother also said that she wanted to summon the county lord, and when the Japanese county lord entered the palace, she had to tell the Queen Mother about it, so that her old man would know that her fathers and mothers in the world were all the same. ”

As the county lord of Jingyi spoke, he showed a threatening look at Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu saw what the county lord of Jingyi meant, and knew that she wanted to tell the queen mother that Lord Lu was suspected of taking bribes.

But Mrs. Lu had already thought of a countermeasure, and said quietly: "Then please ask the county lord to say a few more words for the concubine in front of the queen mother." The Queen Mother must also be able to appreciate the hard work of being a father and mother. ”

The county lord of Jingyi didn't look at her again, and said to Fu Xiaojiu: "Xiaojiu, I heard that you have experienced dangers in Qiangwan, can you tell us about what you have seen and heard in Qiangwan, so that we can also open our eyes?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu happily responded: "Then I'll tell you about the customs of Qiangwan." ”

Everyone put down the chopsticks in their hands and began to listen to Fu Xiaojiu tell about his experience in Qiangwan.

In Fu Xiaojiu's colorful explanation, everyone was fascinated by it, and they all had a yearning for Qiang Wan, and wanted to see this beautiful country in person.

After listening to Fu Xiaojiu's speech, everyone was still a little unsatisfied, and they all admired Fu Xiaojiu even more.

The banquet was about to come to an end, and the county lord of Jingyi did not mean to embarrass Mrs. Lu anymore, and Mrs. Lu was also a little more low-key than before.

The reason why the county lord of Jingyi temporarily stopped was that she could see that the wind direction had changed, and if she blindly suppressed Mrs. Lu now, once it was the day when King Xiao went to the west, Mrs. Lu would definitely retaliate against her.

The county lord of Jingyi was still glad that she had held this banquet, otherwise she would not have been able to see the current situation clearly.

At this time, Fu Xiaojiu noticed that there was a lady who always seemed to be peeking at her.

This lady is in the seat of the second-class master, and the dress is also very gorgeous and exquisite.

However, Fu Xiaojiu found that she looked at herself with curiosity and exploration, but there was no enthusiasm and kindness in the eyes of others who wanted to be close to her.

Fu Xiaojiu asked the county lord of Jingyi, "County lord, which adult's family is that lady from?" I'm not impressed. ”

The county lord of Jingyi followed her eyes and immediately answered Fu Xiaojiu's doubts.

"That's the wife of the Imperial Doctor, Lord Katsura. No wonder you don't remember that she used to hardly attend banquets between ladies and ladies. ”

After speaking, the county lord of Jingyi reacted, "I should introduce you to each other." Wan Daren is on the Imperial History Tower, and you should also have a relationship with Madame Gui everywhere. But don't worry, although she is a second-grade ordained, but you are a lady who was canonized by a saint, and her status is actually higher than her, so you don't have to slap her, she still has to slap you. ”

"It turns out that she is Mrs. Gui."

Fu Xiaojiu finally understood why Madame Gui would peek at her with such eyes.

Fu Xiaojiu looked at Mrs. Gui's triangular eyes and covered the mouth of the boat, and knew that she was a narrow-minded but ruthless person.

She kicked her baby son no matter what she said at the beginning, even if she said that this incident was over on the surface, she must still hate herself in her heart.

But knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win all battles, Fu Xiaojiu said with kindness: "Then please help me introduce me." ”

The county lord of Jingyi actually knew that Fu Xiaojiu kicked Gui Guohao on the street.

Mrs. Gui's location was not far from the Jingyi County Lord, and the Jingyi County Lord stood up and said to Fu Xiaojiu, "Let's go over." ”

Mrs. Gui saw that the county lord of Jingyi and Fu Xiaojiu came over together, and knew that they must be coming to talk to her, so she also stood up.

"County Lord, Mrs. Yuxiu." Madame Gui spoke to them politely first.

The county lord of Jingyi smiled at her, "Mrs. Gui, you rarely attend banquets on weekdays, but I am really happy that you can come over to this county lord today." ”

Mrs. Gui hurriedly said: "Don't blame the county lord, it's not that the old body doesn't like to participate in the banquet, it's just that the old body didn't take care of his mother-in-law at home before. It is an honor for the old man to come to the banquet of the county lord. ”

The county lord of Jingyi introduced to Fu Xiaojiu: "This is Mrs. Gui. ”

"Hello Mrs. Gui." Fu Xiaojiu smiled gently and virtuously at Mrs. Gui.

When Mrs. Gui saw Fu Xiaojiu for the first time, it was actually difficult to associate Fu Xiaojiu with the shrew who kicked her precious son.

But just now after listening to her experience in Qiangwan, I knew that she was a woman who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, not a person to be messed with.

Mrs. Gui also smiled very kindly at Fu Xiaojiu, "Mrs. Yuxiu, your old name has long been like thunder. It's an honor to finally see you today. ”

Fu Xiaojiu said modestly: "Mrs. Gui is polite, it is an honor for the younger generation to get to know Mrs. Gui." ”

The county lord of Jingyi smiled and said, "You two don't be polite to each other. Your husband works together in the Yushitai, Lord Gui leads the Yushitai, and Lord Wan is the right-hand man of Lord Gu, and it is appropriate for the two of you to be closer. ”

The three of them didn't mention the conflict between Fu Xiaojiu and Gui Guohao.

Mrs. Gui said very humbly: "What the county lord said is right, the old man has met Mrs. Yuxiu before, but he is afraid that she will be busy with the clinic every day, so he does not dare to take the liberty. Now that I have borrowed the light of the county lord, I can finally get to know Mrs. Yuxiu. ”

The county lord of Jingyi said happily: "Hehe, then let's not just chat, Mrs. Gui, Mrs. Yuxiu, you might as well have a drink." ”

Fu Xiaojiu and Mrs. Gui had a toast, Mrs. Gui finished drinking, and said to Fu Xiaojiu: "Mrs. Yuxiu, today is the banquet of the county lord, and the old body will not be noisy." Another day, I will visit you alone. ”

Fu Xiaojiu smiled and said: "If you want to visit, it is the juniors who visit you." ”

Both of them were very polite on the surface, and the county lord of Jingyi was relieved when he saw that they were so polite.

After returning to his seat, the county lord of Jingyi asked tentatively, "Xiao Jiu, what do you think of Mrs. Gui?" ”

"I think she's still full of kindness." Fu Xiaojiu said against his will.

The county lord of Jingyi covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a somewhat contemptuous smile: "Hehe, I'll tell you the truth, don't think she's kind." I know that the unsuccessful son of his family has annoyed you and Lord Wan. If others don't know me, they still know her. You can get along with her on the surface, but don't have a deep relationship with her. ”
