Twenty-five: Go to the meeting

Moreover, Su Peiyao didn't get along well with Qingde Houfu a while ago, and her 'marriage' with He Muchen was disturbed by her own mouth, and it is estimated that the He family did not want to see her.

Qin Manhuai has to be busy preparing the dowry of the four girls, and the Xiao family has already hired them first, although not all, but it is also a lot.

Cao Qianlian's eyes were red, and soon the four girls would marry Gaomen, but they could only watch.

"I'm afraid that the top material is not much for the royal family to wear, how can the Xiao family be willing to send three boxes to Su Peiyao's dead girl!" Su Yuyao's cheeks were slightly red, and she threw the teacup in her hand to the ground angrily.

She is older than Su Peiyao, but her father doesn't think about herself first, and Su Peiyao relies on the support of the old lady to marry one step ahead of her, not to mention, it is still the realm of Changjun Wangfu, how does this make her balance?

"What's the way, the fourth girl is the old lady's marriage, and the Xiao family's mother, Yang, is a concubine who doesn't feel sorry, so she decided to marry in a daze, ordinary people can't stop it, it's useless for you to be angry here." Cao Qianlian comforted her and said, "In my opinion, Xiao Qi is not bad, and he is a sister-in-law, and he will have a great future in the future!" Don't listen to the rumors that Xiao Ling is good, how many have actually seen him? Maybe the crooked melon and cracked jujube are like a long time, instead of being angry with you because the fourth girl married Xiao Ling, it is better to put your mind on Xiao Qi. ”

"Mother, what you said is true, but that Xiao Qi Gongzi also ignored me, the last time he came to me and said a few words to him, it is obvious that he is perfunctory to me, am I really out of play?"

Saying that, Su Yuyao was about to cry as soon as she wiped her tears, and Cao Qianlian was irritable and only hated her for not being successful.

"What about perfunctory? You should learn more from Hui'er, people don't annoy Xiao Qi if they are silent, you are too purposeful, is he Xiao Qi a fool? Nature is felt, do you know what it means to moisturize things silently? He should take the initiative to slowly discover your goodness, this is the real skill! ”

There is a jade pendant in the dowry gift, and on it is a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the Xiao family sent this together with thought.

Not to mention that it is a good intention, but it will not treat Su Peiyao badly, and no matter what she is doing, let's just say that the Su family and the Xiao family are old friends, and Xiao Ling is not the Yang family's own son, where can she manage so much? I haven't finished worrying about my son's marriage yet, and I don't have the strength to deal with Su Peiyao.

That's what the old lady told her, "Although Yang's mouth is a little stronger, but she is not a nosy person, she will only be interested in her daughter-in-law's daughter-in-law, you just need to listen to her on weekdays, please her like, don't make her unhappy is everything is fine, to say that the place you should work hard is rules and filial piety, Changjun Wangfu is everyone, the most taboo is not to respect the elders and unruly, so I let you learn these." ”

But Su Peiyao just listened to her left ear and her right ear, she was used to flowers by the old lady over the years, especially Su Jingyao's unsatisfactory marriage, which made the old lady feel indebted, so she made up for Su Peiyao wholeheartedly, but she didn't want to make her more and more ignorant.

Now I realized that it was too late, and the old lady could only teach her seriously, as the saying goes, the sedan chair is now piercing the ears and eyes, which is the current situation of the old lady.

Qin Manhuai couldn't pull away for a while, but the post of Qingde Houfu was close at hand, and she could only let go of the dowry, let the old lady help her, and take a few girls to the meeting by herself.

Yingqiu Lake is the royal territory, and it is also considered the kindness of the Son of Heaven to be open to the families of the officials, so those who can come here are extremely disciplined. Qin Manhuai didn't dare to be sloppy, and explained a lot to a few girls.

Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao couldn't go, but when they were angry, they heard another thing, that is, Xiao Ling, the son of the Xiao family, would return to Beijing in a few days, and he would have to go to the Su family to see his fiancΓ©e.

This Xiao Ling's appearance and character are said by outsiders to have a nose and eyes, but Cao Qianlian is not angry in his heart, he always feels that this Xiao Ling is also praised by others, but in fact he is just a concubine, how good can he be? The old lady married Su Peiyao to the Xiao family and seemed to have found a good family for her, but she was actually stupid.

The carriage walked all the way smoothly, without any ups and downs, and when a few people arrived at Yingqiu Lake, there were already many people's carriages parked there.

"Remember not to look around, try to talk as little as possible, and say more wrong."

A few girls should be at the same time.

"Sister Qin!" Mrs. Gao of Qingdehou walked over with the support of the maid, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!" There are a lot of people here today, and it's very lively. ”

Qin Manhuai smiled and responded, "It's a shame that Mrs. is worried about me, and she also sent me a post, so that the girls can borrow your light." ”

"You're welcome? You and I have known each other for a long time, and unlike their closeness, you don't need to call me Mrs. and call me my sister. As she spoke, she noticed Su Jinyao, who she had never seen before, "What is this?" ”

"I forgot to introduce it to my sister, this is Su Jinyao, the daughter of the third lady of the Su family, who is ranked ninth in the house, and this winter is about to be in time, and when the time comes, I will invite my sister to come to the house to be lively and lively."

"It's natural." Gao looked at Su Jinyao and felt that she didn't seem to have any shining points, but in fact she was a sincere person, better than the four girls Su Peiyao.

Su Yunyao saw a few faces, and also saw a few acquaintances, such as Liu Juetong wearing a silver vermilion narcissus skirt, she is the younger sister of the eldest princess of Jinyi, because of her beautiful appearance, she is very pleasing in the aristocratic circle, and she relies on her sister-in-law is the emperor's sister, so she often attends this kind of crowded occasions, and there are many people behind her back who look down on her, thinking that her Liu family relies on Liu Binhong to make a horse for the eldest princess, and some people think that Liu Lingtong is a knowledgeable person. Even if she is not next to her brother and brother, then she is also the top in the Jingming show.

There is also Mu Yanxia, the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she is a down-and-out and generous beauty, compared to Liu Juetong and Su Yunyao, I don't know how much better she is.

There weren't many times to see these aristocratic women, and Su Jinyao was almost dazzled.

In addition to Mu Yanxia, there are also a few of her brothers in the Prime Minister's house, Mu Yunfan and Mu Yunzhou are twins, and they are also Mu Yanxia's brothers-in-law, the Mu family has three sons and one daughter, three are the children of the housewife, and one Mu Yunhai was born to the second lady, but Mu Yunhai did not come today.

Su Yunyao was able to know about the Mu family by chance, she heard her mother say that the He family and the Mu family are world friends, maybe the Gao family has the heart to marry the Mu family, she listened to the curiosity and asked a few more words, Qin Manhuai also told her the truth.

Among the men and women, Su Yunyao also caught a glimpse of a person, Shao Qing'er, the third daughter of the Shangshu family, she is the concubine of the Shao family, and there are two sisters-in-law above, the eldest sister Shao Xi'er and the second sister Shao Yan'er.

She had studied with the Su family in the Su family's official school, but the reason why the female scholar's mother was sick was that the official school had not been opened recently, and Shao Qing'er had not been to the Su family for a long time, and Su Yunyao didn't know if she was still studying in the Su family.

There are not many people who can run official schools, and generally only one of the families of several officials and honorables is selected, and the Su family is the one who is selected, and the women don't learn much, so the course is also easy, and several concubines who feel that they have no good future are sent over.

Also studying in the Su family is Qiao Lan, the daughter of Qiao Lu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but there is no one among the people who have come recently, it may be that her father's official position is not high, so no one gave her a post.

Shao Qing'er smiled very dazzlingly, her laughter was purposeful, such as smiling at men, only smiling at people with high official positions, and only smiling at everyone's young lady.

She has always played well with Su Huiyao and a few others, so her temperament is also very similar, and she doesn't take Su Yunyao and the others in her eyes at all, and when she meets face-to-face, she just salutes Qin Manhuai, and the others don't look at it.

Although it is lively, to put it bluntly, people only play with those who are familiar with themselves, Su Yunyao doesn't know anyone here, so she followed the Gao family to the seat of Qingde Houfu, He Nianning seems to have been waiting there for a long time, and when he saw Su Yunyao, he said excitedly, "It's waiting for you!" ”

Su Qianyao doesn't like to be lively, to say that the beautiful scenery of Yingqiu Lake can be said to be beautiful, she also understands her mother's kindness, but she feels that she is redundant here, so she sits there obediently without saying a word.

Su Jinyao hadn't seen much of the world, and now she was only following Su Yunyao.

"I remember that Sister Qian'er played chess very well, it's not worth it to come here so lonely, why don't I take you to play chess?" He Nianning said to Su Qianyao.

Su Qianyao smiled, "Playing chess is just a temporary pastime, my mother told me not to run around, how can I go with Sister Ning." ”

"What's that?" Su Yunyao hugged her arm, and was about to pull her up, "Mother said that I will take you out to relax today, and you don't move or speak, which kind of heart is scattered?" Chess is for you, so come with us! ”

Looking back at the joy of Qin Manhuai and Mrs. Qingdehou chatting, Su Qianyao knew that she shouldn't be disturbed, so she only nodded.

He Nianning was more familiar with the others, and led a few people into a pavilion to find a place, and opened his mouth to say, "Sister Qian'er, wait here, someone will make an appointment with you in a while, this is the chess pavilion, those people will come over after seeing someone sitting here." ”

"I'll just go down with you." Su Qianyao was a little embarrassed when she heard this, "Don't be, if any of you sit here, let's go back after the next two plates." ”

"It's okay, you don't have to be afraid! I'm here with you! He Nianning patted his chest and said.

Su Yunyao mentioned to her, saying that Su Qianyao came today to relax, and the eldest lady Qin Manhuai didn't want her to stay in the mansion all day, but now she has come and sat there honestly, what is the difference between that and being stuffy in the mansion?

The waiting time was long, He Nianning played two sets with her first, but they all ended in miserable losses, and the sunspots only fell a dozen or so, and she obviously saw that she had entered a dead end.

Playing chess is not her strong point, and she is just helping Su Qianyao relax.
