716, Yaowu
As the mother of the Empress Dowager, the Deng family has been one of the best families in Dayin for decades, and such a famous family would marry its daughter to a Rongguo Mansion that has been faintly declining in the past ten years, such a move is really incomprehensible.
Even if the two families used to be in-laws with each other in the past and had a close connection, but with the accession to the throne today, the Deng family's more and more powerful power, and the Qi family's declining family background, the gap between the two families is getting bigger and bigger.
This marriage is really incomprehensible, especially as everyone knows, the second son of the Qi family was once given marriage by the first emperor, and the object of the marriage was the daughter of a little-known last-class family Xu family, the daughter of the Deng family's golden and noble concubine actually wanted to be a concubine with a woman from a small family, which is undoubtedly a humiliation for the Deng family, even if the emperor gave marriage to the fourth prince of Qi and this Miss Xu family, but that could not hide the humble background of Miss Xu Family.
Just when the world wondered the reason for this marriage, it was somehow rumored that it was the eldest son of the Qi family and Miss Deng Wu, who were childhood sweethearts, and when they grew up, they were even more in love.
Everyone suddenly realized, and then look at this marriage, they don't feel how unsuitable it is, no matter how declining the Qi family is, it is also a family with the title of the Duke of the Kingdom, although it is worse than the Deng family, but it is also a family that many people can't climb, such as the Xu family who is about to be in-laws with the Qi family, if it is not for the marriage of the first emperor, in a few lifetimes, the Xu family will not be able to climb the Qi family, besides, with the power of the Deng family, which family is not high to marry it? How can there be a family affair in this world that happens to be the right person? There are always high climbs and low ones.
The queen from the Zheng family became the daughter-in-law of the empress dowager from the Deng family, so the Deng family and the Zheng family are somewhat related, but with the Qi family, the Zheng family is not related to the three generations, and the post Xu Shu received is the post of the Deng family, but he invited people to the Qi family.
Although the Zheng family is also a prominent family, they have no relatives and no reason with the Qi family, coupled with the marriage of the Deng Qi family, the people who come and go to congratulate are naturally not ordinary people, and Mrs. Zheng Si intends to keep a low profile, so she sent a congratulatory gift and led Xu Shu to find a warm room to keep warm.
Although Mrs. Zheng Si has been going out less recently, there are many people who have come out to socialize and know in the past, and she was recognized as soon as she entered the house, "Isn't this Mrs. Zheng Si?" Why is Mrs. Zheng also here? The lady looked at Mrs. Zheng Si in surprise, and her mind spun around, obviously not remembering what kind of kinship the Zheng family had with the Qi family.
Mrs. Zheng Si smiled, "Naturally, I took the post!" ”
The lady who asked suddenly thought that the Zheng family had nothing to do with the Qi family, but it had something to do with the Deng family, and Mrs. Zheng Si should have taken the Deng family's post, so she didn't ask much, and gave up the position next to Mrs. Zheng Si, and when she saw Mrs. Zheng Si following Xu Shu, she felt strange, thinking that it was Mrs. Zheng Si's niece or something, but it was not good to ask directly, so she said, "Why don't you bring your daughter out today!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si pulled Xu Shu over and said, "This is my daughter!" ”
Someone who knew the inside story said to the lady, "You're talking about Miss Zheng Shi, right?" Miss Zheng Shi has already been engaged to a family affair, and now she is waiting to be married, how can she be vacant, this is Miss Zheng Jiu, the biological daughter of Mrs. Zheng Si! ”
The lady suddenly realized, "I see! After that, he chatted with Mrs. Zheng Si,
Xu Shu saw the three-story enclosed building not far away through the open window, and the sound of silk and bamboo musical instruments faintly coming from there, it should be the Jiuqu Pavilion, it is a place for singing, I don't know if it is the opera troupe invited today, it should no longer be the once famous Qin family class, after all, even the concubine has been abolished, how can the Qin family class that is attached to the concubine still flourish.
Retracting her gaze, Xu Shu suddenly saw Xu Ting holding Li in, today's Xu Ting was wearing a particularly grand outfit, with an auspicious cloud bun on her head, wearing a complete set of red gold and ruby heads, shining gold, the upper body was wearing a peony brocade robe woven with cloud makeup and satin, and the ink skirt between the actions rendered a thousand changes, like a flowing ink painting, elegant and unique, and a cloak of stepping on the snow to find plum embroidery Yang, after entering the house, she took it off and handed it to the maid to hold, the maid was not Ye Qing, nor Ye Lan, Looking at the eyes, maybe it was a second-class girl who I hadn't seen before, but now I mentioned it, but I looked very ordinary, thinking that Xu Ting was about to marry Qi Rui, and I also had plans to change to a girl with an ordinary appearance.
Mrs. Zheng Si also saw the Li family mother and daughter coming in, and gently pushed Xu Shu, "Someone is here over there!" ”
Xu Shu nodded, "I know!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si was afraid that Xu Shu and the Li family would feel embarrassed when they met, so she said, "Do you want to avoid it?" ”
Xu Shu chuckled, "It's not that I haven't seen it, so there's no need to avoid it!" I'm not a thief, like I can't see anyone! ”
"Also, on this occasion today, although there is no one from the Li family to suppress it, the Qi family is their future in-laws, and they don't dare to act rashly if they want to!" Thinking like this, Mrs. Zheng Si was also relieved, glanced at Xu Ting, saw Xu Ting wearing a bright and bright dress, and then glanced at Xu Shu in a magnolia-colored jacket skirt, and immediately shook her head, "Why do you love to wear such plain clothes, but you are compared to others!" ”
The bejeweled Xu Ting attracted everyone's attention as soon as she came in, but the people who came to the banquet were all familiar with the Qi family or the Deng family.
"I'm not here to show off my might, what are I doing wearing so fancy!"
Today is the day when Deng Yarong married into the Rongguo Mansion, after today, Deng Yarong is the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Rongguo Mansion, she is not only Xu Ting's sister-in-law, but also Xu Ting's step into the door, and her family status is beyond Xu Ting's reach, and when Xu Ting marries into the door, Deng Yarong has already sat firmly in the position of the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Qi family, and Xu Ting can only be a man with her tail between her when she enters the Qi family.
Of course, Xu Ting also understands this, so she came to the Qi family impatiently, just to let everyone leave a good impression on her, lest everyone only see Grandma Qi who is about to enter the door, and she is the fourth grandmother Qi who will enter the door in a few months.
