Everyone in the room burst into laughter. Bai Shi looked at Mrs. He and joked with a smile: "The old lady loves her sister too much, and she wants to give her sister a chance to get close to the old lady." ”

"Hmph, I don't dare to ask for this kind of opportunity." Mrs. He snorted with a smile.

"Okay, with your mouth, who said it could beat you?" Old Madam Sun patted her daughter, turned her head to He Dao'an, and said, "Okay, An'er, don't be embarrassed, and go ahead to eat with their men." Eating with our woman's family, you don't feel comfortable thinking about it. ”

He Daoan was like being amnestied, and made a deep gesture: "My grandson said goodbye." After saying that, without waiting for the old lady to speak again, she went out in a puff of smoke.

Bai Shi smiled: "Look at An'er, the one who walks is called a hurry." ”

The crowd laughed again, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.

Bai and Mrs. He supported Mrs. Sun from left to right, got up and went to the side hall.

Entering the side hall, Bai Shi remembered something, and whispered to Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun said "ouch" and said, "I almost forgot about her mother and daughter." He also instructed his mother-in-law, "Go and call Mrs. Wugu and Yue'er, and everyone will eat together." ”

"Mrs. Fifth Aunt? Who is it? Mrs. He helped Mrs. Sun to sit down, and she also sat on her left hand side, and asked casually.

"You don't know." Mrs. Sun said, "It's a relative of the clan, and her grandfather and your grandfather are cousins." ”

This is far from it.

Mrs. He asked curiously, "What is she doing here?" Fighting the autumn wind? ”

There are many people in the Sun family, but they are the only ones who have a career and status. It is very common for relatives to come to fight the autumn breeze, and before Mrs. He left the cabinet, she saw such relatives rarely.

"It's just that relatives usually come and walk around." In front of Ke's family, Old Madam Sun couldn't say it too clearly, so she could only say vaguely.

Bai was afraid that the eldest sister-in-law would continue to ask, which would embarrass everyone, so he quickly diverted the topic: "Sister, what kind of family do you want to tell An'er?" ”

As soon as this topic opened, Mrs. He became happy: "Our An'er's eldest aunt said that she has taken a good look at the girls of several families, including the granddaughter of Li Langzhong's family in Tai Hospital, and even the niece of the Shaoqing family of Honglu Temple, and the daughter of the Qintian Prison Supervisor Zheng's family!" No, I'm going to Kyoto tomorrow just to see these girls. ”

After saying this, she glanced at Zhong Lingyu intentionally or unintentionally.

How did Zhong Lingyu know that He Daoan had a mind about herself, and she also told Mrs. He that she wanted Mrs. He to go to her house to ask for marriage, which caused Mrs. He to misunderstand her? She just felt that this Mrs. He was talking about her son's family affairs, but she suddenly raised her eyes and glanced at her, which was very inexplicable.

But she didn't think much about it, she just thought that the eldest lady thought she was good-looking, and she could be a reference when choosing a daughter-in-law.

The Bai family obviously thought of this with Zhong Lingyu, and also looked at Zhong Lingyu. However, Mrs. He picked her daughter-in-law, Zhong Lingyu is an unmarried woman, and she has not yet been engaged, so it is really not good to make fun of her, so she didn't make a fuss about it, but smiled: "These people are excellent!" It can be seen that An'er, his uncle and aunt are doing well in the capital. Alas, we were ...... then," she glanced at Kosh, and said no more.

But everyone in the hall understood what she meant. Ke's father is a servant, and he is a serious official of the court, but to put it bluntly, he is just doing odd jobs for the emperor, and he really has no status. is such a person, who has not been able to help the Sun family for so many years, and now he has offended the three princes and suffered a catastrophe, which has affected their Sun family by the way. Such a daughter-in-law will be called bad luck if she marries anyone.

Ke also heard the meaning of his mother-in-law's words. She pursed her lips tightly and lowered her head, her fingers clutching her handkerchief already white.

Zhong Lingyu saw all this in his eyes and shook his head in his heart.

The status of these families mentioned by Mrs. He is much better than that of Ke's father.3 But it is far from enough to be a backer for the He family, who looks rich, but the He family should also be in Kyoto like the Sun family (Zhong Lingyu doesn't know that the He family is an imperial businessman), but in Zhong Lingyu's eyes, these officials can't get into her eyes, and the backer she wants is stronger.

If her thoughts were known to the people in the house, she would definitely be ridiculed, saying that she didn't know the height of the sky.

You must know that among these people in the house, the Sun family is the daughter of the official eunuch family, and Mrs. He is now married, but the He family is not simple to marry, this imperial merchant is not an ordinary businessman, and the energy is greater than that of the Sun family. But who is Zhong Lingyu? In their eyes, Zhong Lingyu is just a little girl from a small tea merchant in the countryside, and the family has just lost a pillar, so she has no status at all. can treat her well, but it is for the sake of Old Lady Sun's unique feelings for his sister. Such a person dares to look down on the Kyoto officials who even want to cling to them?

At this moment, the maid at the door came and said, "Mrs. Wugu and Miss Yu are here." Then she lifted the curtain, and Mrs. Wu and Yu Yue walked in.

Because of Mrs. He, there was another commotion in the room.

Mrs. He didn't look down on Mrs. Wugu very much, so she sat down after a few sentences of cold response. Seeing this, the housekeepers and ladies hurriedly ordered the food to be served.

At this time, Zhong Lingyu felt for the first time that the Sun family's rule of "eating without saying anything" was very good, which avoided a lot of embarrassment for everyone, otherwise everyone would have to say hello at this time, and it would be troublesome. But Mrs. Wugu was miserable by this rule. Her mother's family conditions are not very good, and she is married to a small family. What are the rules of the small family? The neighbor's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law don't come to your house with a bowl and run the door, so how can there be anything to say?

Therefore, she wanted to say a few words to praise the Sun family's dishes for doing well, but the sudden silence in the room made her dare not open her mouth. At this time, Yu Yue made the sound of dishes colliding when he was eating, which attracted everyone's attention, and Yu Yue just wanted to find a crack to drill down.

Mrs. Wugu felt that she was rude, blushed and sneered: "We are from a small family, and the number of etiquette is incomplete, which makes everyone laugh." ”

Mrs. Sun also came from the situation of Mrs. Wugu when her husband was not working, and she was very considerate of the embarrassment of their mother and daughter, so she comforted with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we didn't pay attention to it before." It's just that when I go out to a banquet, the etiquette is not good, and it is easy to be laughed at, and I lose the face of our old lady, so I pay attention to it and don't get in the way. ”
