Chapter 86: No Stop
To say that although Mrs. Shen is the sister-in-law of the queen's mother, her temperament is really not arrogant, and she is not arrogant and arrogant, but she is indeed in her childhood, because her family background is ordinary, she is a commoner in cloth clothes, and she has not received the education of everyone's ladies, which is nothing, because today's etiquette pays attention to "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", even if she is a lady from a famous family, if she meets her pedantic parents, she may be illiterate.
For women, if they are not talented, they will not be ridiculed, and if their reputation is damaged, they will become the target of public criticism.
But because the Shen family had a queen, from penniless to glorious and wealthy, the world had an inexplicable pickiness about the women of the Shen family, and they didn't dare to say it on the surface, but in private they all laughed at Mrs. Shen's vulgar words and deeds, couldn't read and be courteous, and was an illiterate person.
Mrs. Shen also cares about the opinions of others, and she was born with the temperament of not admitting defeat, so she also studied hard, and once worked harder than those students who wanted to enter the imperial examination, but after all, she was not talented enough, and her patience was insufficient, and it was difficult to become a talented woman after all.
Family background and talent are like Mrs. Shen's two heart thorns.
It's just that over the years, as she married into the Taishifu and the canonization of the grandson, gradually no one touched Mrs. Shen's two heart thorns, as if she came to Fenyang, although she often competed with the Duchess of Rongguo, the other party did not use her family background and talent to attack.
But today, at the banquet of the Xue family, Hu Duan's wife Fei dared to ridicule and ridicule in person: "Mrs. Xue held this elegant gathering, please get together a few of us, originally to appreciate vase flowers, calligraphy and painting, or ancient songs, chess games. Although it was an invitation to Mrs. Shen, I really didn't expect Mrs. Shen to be interested, you know, today, I didn't prepare to let those servants come here to sing and tell stories, I'm afraid it will make Mrs. Shen feel bored. ”
Does it mean that Mrs. Shen is vulgar, and without women from these clans, she can only be elegant?
Mrs. Xue listened harshly, as the main family, of course, she couldn't indulge Fei's cynicism, which caused the guests to be noisy, and after a while, Fei's also restrained herself, who knew that when the banquet was over, when the group said goodbye and left, Fei's pulled the female dependents of Tongzhi, Zhubo and other subordinate officials, and carried out "encirclement and interception" of Mrs. Shen.
The words are even more ugly.
"It's no wonder that Mrs. Shen is so keen on Yaji, it wasn't because at the Yaji banquet, Mrs. Shen was blessed by misfortune, that she has today's creation. Since Mrs. Zhao Taishi's eldest son, Yuguo Gong really raised his eyebrows, and boasted when he met people, saying that he had raised two good daughters, one was a mother in the world, and the other had to marry a famous family, and it was really the glory of Yuguo Gongfu. ”
——Listening to Mrs. Shen's narration so far, I can't help but feel a shock in my heart when I return to spring, and I will be blessed by misfortune? Does it mean that Mrs. Zhu was dismissed?
But Guo's mother also hurriedly stopped Mrs. Shen's unnecessary narration, and helped Fei Shi to count a few words.
Chungui saw that Mrs. Shen had reduced her anger a little, and then said with a smile: "Madame is really benevolent by nature, which makes the concubine admire and break her heart." ”
This sycophant is so headless and brainless, it is really far-fetched, but it successfully diverted Mrs. Shen's thoughts, raised her eyebrows and squinted at Chun Gui: "Where am I benevolent, and where do I break your heart?" ”
"Madame knows that Fei Niangzi and others are so bitter and mean because they are jealous, and they embarrass the narrow-minded people even more with their faces, isn't it benevolent by nature? But when Mrs. heard that this generation was tongue-making and insulting the elder's family, she couldn't help but be angry in her heart, and she could still endure it, only getting angry in secret, complaining a few words, that is, she was more benevolent. ”
This was originally a rhetoric, but Chun Gui's face was full of sincerity, and the posture of the heartfelt words was extremely realistic, not only Mrs. Shen, but even Guo's mother couldn't hold back and laughed, and the atmosphere in the room was finally relaxed.
"Madame, look at it, the slave maid said that as long as the grandmother persuaded her, no matter how angry she was, it was not worth mentioning." Mother Guo slapped the wind a few times, hoping to completely extinguish Mrs. Shen's anger.
"Chun'er is right, these people are indeed jealous, who else can I compare with them who is more bitter and mean?" That's why she became a stupid woman who couldn't be angry with the little family!
Seeing that Mrs. Shen really turned her anger into joy, Chun Gui was about to change the topic, but she didn't expect Mrs. Shen to sit on the kang, and her eyebrows were raised: "Today, Mrs. Xue set up a banquet to invite each other, and it is etiquette for me to be a host, the same elegant gathering, Chun'er, you help me organize it, and you can help me think of ideas, and I will have to let Fei and other officials and daughters come to the meeting, I want them to see who is not elegant." ”
Chungui was stunned: What have I done?
Guo's mother didn't seem to approve of Mrs. Shen, Fei and the others, and reminded: "Madame, have you forgotten that the eldest grandmother is still in filial piety and can't drink for fun." ”
"Don't let Chun'er drink and have fun, just let her organize this elegant collection for me, even if she accompanies her that day, she is my daughter-in-law, it is not a violation of etiquette to pour wine and cloth dishes on the side, the daughter-in-law waits for her mother-in-law, which also reflects filial piety, see who dares to slander."
Chungui: What the hell did I say and do?!
Hung his head and returned dejectedly, with a bitter face and two sad frowns, sitting in front of the window like a wrinkled cold melon, in a daze, before calling Qingping to choose the most important one for today's encounter: "I originally thought of a few witty words to try to let Mrs. extinguish the fire, but I didn't expect to set fire to herself. ”
"Grandma doesn't have to worry, there are often verbal conflicts between female dependents, and although they are nervous, they can often grasp the measure." Qingping didn't think it was strange.
"I also want to ask you, but I know the roots of Fei Niangzi, I only heard that she lives in the capital." Chungui listened to Mrs. Shen's tone, mainly because he was angry with Fei, so he made this the main object of investigation.
"The Fei family is indeed a family, but it is not a high-ranking family, but this Fei lady, who is also the younger generation of the Empress Dowager Shengde, is very high-minded, and her popularity is not good." Qingping recalled the memories in her mind, but she was still a little unsure: "It seems that Fei Niangzi's aunt is the maiden cousin of the eldest sister-in-law of the Empress Dowager Shengde." ”
Another person with a backstage, although this backstage is a bit winding.
"Queen Mother...... I should take care of the queen mother more, right? Chungui asked, so as to grasp the scale when fighting with Fei's tongue, there is no doubt that Mrs. Shen asked her to accompany her to pour tea and wine, not to toss her, but to use her as a pioneer and win back a city under Fei's mouth.
"The Empress Dowager Shengde is the mother-in-law of today, and the Empress Dowager Shengci is the biological mother of today." Qingping is also very tactful in responding.
Spring return has become more and more like a crumpled cold melon.
She understood what Qingping meant, the Empress Dowager Shengde was just the queen's nominal mother-in-law, and she shouldn't care more about her cheap daughter-in-law's sister-in-law, maybe she cared about Fei's "one table and three thousand miles".
After several hesitations, Chun Gui still decided to ask Lan Ting for help, she is really shallow, she has not been getting started for a long time, it is difficult to be at ease between the major families and interests, the scale of proportion is easy to say, but it is really difficult to master, she does not think that Fei Shi can say so ugly in person, when Mrs. Shen takes the initiative to attack, Fei Shi will really grasp the proportion.
Unexpectedly, Lan Ting didn't care at all: "No matter how high Fei Shi is, she is no longer at the age of less and no more, she is so reckless today, where is it for the speed of her tongue?" She did it on purpose, she wanted to be with our family Chu River Han Realm, Mrs. was annoyed that she was rude, and Huihui should help Mrs. export her evil anger, just give full play to it, no scruples. ”
"The implication is that Hu Tong's sentence is still obedient to the former Zhizhou?"
Lan Ting saw that Chun Gui was like an initiation after a little click, and smiled and agreed: "Shi Liangxing is Hu Duan's master, if Hu Duan turns his back on him, then he will have to be pointed out by thousands of people, and even his career will be buried, so Hu Duan can't turn back." ”
"But if Shi Liangxing really violates the law, does Hu Duan still have to help the abuse, and this can be regarded as living up to the righteousness of teachers and students?" Chungui frowned, saying that he couldn't understand the so-called rules of officialdom.
"This is also a long-term malaise, what township party is the same nationality, what teacher and protégé, are all like a natural line, rotten and full of benevolence and morality, but often ignore right and wrong, in the final analysis, just for their own sins and selfishness, just find a high-sounding excuse."
Lanting also expressed disdain for such so-called principles.
"If that's the case, then I'll really do what Madame tells me to do." Chungui only felt relieved, she was not afraid to test her eloquence with others, she was just a little worried about the scale.
"I have one thing, in fact, I also need Huihui's help." But he was asked to do it again.
Chungui was stunned: What day is today?!
