Hua Chu'er's face was not much stronger than that remnant lotus, and she said with self-pity: "What Mrs. Thorn Shi said is extremely true. ”

Mrs. Thorn Shi didn't even glance at Hua Chu'er, she bypassed Mrs. Junshi from the side, and stood opposite Chang Le, with a very shallow smile on the corner of her mouth: "Mrs. Taishou." ”

Hua Chu'er lowered her eyes, and the unwillingness in her eyes loomed.

Chang Le's good impression of Li Hu increased, and he thanked him slightly, and said without hesitation: "Mrs. Thorn Shi." ”

"Sister Chu'er, don't be nervous, Mrs. Thorn Shi is joking with you. These thirteen counties do not worship the style of learning, and there are many foolish people who can't read a word. Although Chu'er's younger sister has a humble background, she has a desire to learn, and it is not easy to get out and fall here. In my opinion, I have to mention it to the county Shi Duoduo, and it is necessary to use my sister as a model for the thirteen counties to worship learning. Mrs. Junshi comforted, and conveyed the sarcasm in her tone silently, "Since ancient times, talented people have been matched with beautiful women, Taishou was the first literary champion of the dynasty, and marrying Chu'er's sister will definitely know that she has no regrets in this life." ”

This time, Chang Le completely understood who that fool was referring to. His brows furrowed slightly, he smiled at Li Hu, and asked, "Chang Le doesn't know about books and ink, but I've heard of marrying a wife and taking a concubine." But it turns out that concubines also use to marry? ”

Feng Wan and Hua Chu'er were both stunned, and they both thought they were humiliated.

Li Hu smiled indifferently, and there was a little more praise in his shallow eyes: "Mrs. Taishou still knows a lot, everyone says that Mrs. Taishou is illiterate, but she doesn't say that Mrs. Taishou understands the rules and knows the general situation." Really, the rumors are terrifying. ”

"Mrs. Thorn Shi has a good reputation, Chang Le is a peasant girl was born, where do you know what rules are in general. It's just that I often hear the elders say it. Chang Le smiled.

Feng Wan and Hua Chu'er were depressed.

It's not that they don't understand, these two people are mocking them openly and secretly for not understanding the rules.

"Agriculture is the foundation of the country, what about peasant girls? If you don't say it, stepping on the loess with your back to the blue sky is more tenacious and simple than our people, and you are more open and natural in dealing with the world. Li Hu spoke modestly, ignored her, and only brought Chang Le to the table, "Taishou is the head of a county, and today, he is Mrs. Taishou sitting." ”

Chang Le was flattered by Li Hu's preferential treatment, but he also understood that Li Hu was just maintaining the face of the "lady" main room. If Mrs. Junshi didn't hold up the flowers so much, then she probably wouldn't help her so much.

However, this talented woman speaks really unusually, scolding people without dirty words, and pointing to Sang and scolding Huaidi is so unremarkable.

The conversation between Mrs. Junshi and Mrs. Thorn Shi is like a fight between immortals.

"Mrs. Thorn is polite. Today, the Thorn Mansion sits in the east, and Mrs. should sit on it. Chang Le said politely.

Feng Wan just didn't understand the meaning of their words, patted Hua Chu'er's hand and said, "Let's go over too." ”

More than a dozen lanterns are hung on the third degree pavilion, and more than a dozen long cases are placed on the left and right sides, and the velvet blanket is spread.

The maid wore a dark red jacket skirt, lined with the joy of the New Year's banquet. Coming and going, polite manners, smiling lightly, orderly, without a trace of sound. It can be seen that Mrs. Thorn Shi's training.

Chang Le sat at the bottom left, and across from him sat Mrs. Duwei.

It's a person who looks bold. The style of the dark blue jacket skirt is different from that of ordinary women, and it is more neat and slim. There is not too much complicated jewelry on the head. The whole person looks heroic.

Next to him was Feng Wan. Feng Wan liked Hua Chu'er, so she pulled Hua Chu'er to sit with her. Chang Le didn't say a word, just didn't see it. On the contrary, the few concubines sitting at the tail table were all envious when they saw this.

Because of Chang Le's rumors, everyone else thought that Chang Le had bullied the concubine, so the virtuous and virtuous Mrs. Junshi pulled the concubine to her side and sat down. Although those ladies in the main room couldn't see the concubine being so favored, they also despised the behavior of a little woman like Chang Le.

The clock is over, and the time has come.

The fruit plate on the table was removed, and the wine utensils and cups and delicious dishes were brought in. On the left and right, silk and bamboo are in place.

Chang Le found that the drinking utensils of Mrs. Du Wei opposite were only different from others. Everyone else is a glass of black silver lotus petals, pouring deep purple and clear grape wine. And she is the gilded bottom of the white jade cup, and she pours fragrant and intoxicating sake.

Li Hu glanced at the audience, got up with a cup, and a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth. The kneeling crowd immediately stood up with their glasses.

"Today's husband's feast for the New Year is an annual example. We just think of it as a sister's gathering, no formality, just eat and make trouble. ”

The crowd agreed.

Li Hu took a sip of the grape sweet wine and sat down lightly.

Silk and bamboo music sounded on both sides.

Chang Le ate carelessly, raising his eyes to look around. Except for Mrs. Duwei, they are all slow and leisurely, maintaining a ladylike appearance. However, those rich ladies were a little more pretended to be cramped.

Chang Le was thinking about how to please Mrs. Thorn Shi, and someone had already praised her one step ahead of her.

"This wine is sweet and excellent. I heard that it was brewed by Mrs. Thorn Shi herself, and Mrs. was able to use the white smoke of the Western Regions to the extreme, and she admired it lightly. "It was a lady in the middle. The hairpin is a wooden hairpin, wearing a blue and gray jacket skirt, and her face is delicate.

"Mrs. Duan can tell the raw material of this wine in one word, which shows that the wine fairy's sentence 'women in wine' is not exaggerated." Li Hu blinked, and there was a hint of respect in his expression, "It is correct for the official family to hand over the wine-making matter of the thirteen counties to his wife." Li Hu's clumsy brewing can enter the eyes of Mrs. Duan, it is really an honor. ”

Chang Le was surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect that there were such powerful people, so he couldn't help but look at it twice.

Mrs. Duan bowed her head and spoke sincerely: "I'm ashamed." ”

These two people are obviously compliments, but people can't hear the slightest flattery. It can only be said that they all have capital and can be praised by each other.

Chang Le couldn't help but smack his tongue and tasted the wine carefully.

I can't say half a sentence except for the delicious drink.

It's another fairy compliment.

"This silverware is exquisite, and it is not ordinary when it looks at it." It was the lady who spoke at the front table. Gold hairpins and silver hairpins, silver bracelets and gold chains, the style is antique.

Li Hu bowed politely: "The pawnshop in Jin City is the first pawnshop in the thirteen counties, and there are countless treasures in it, and the business is so big that you have heard of it in the capital. mentioned that the wisdom of the head of Jin City is like a torch, Li Hu sees that he will have to add his wife in the future. This set of silverware was made by the imperial craftsman in the palace of Emperor Wen of the clan and given to the eldest princess. Li Hu was fortunate to come. ”

Chang Le heard this, took the wine glass in his hand and took a good look at it. She only felt that the pattern of this wine glass was realistic and exquisite, but it turned out that it still had such a big origin.

Today, I used this royal weapon, rounding it off, and she is also a person who has been in the palace.

"Mrs. Thorn has a good reputation. It is these little women who are fortunate enough to be able to use the royal things. Mrs. Jin Shi smiled from ear to ear, and her eyes revealed the essence of a businessman, as if she had gained a lot of money.

Li Hu pursed her lips: "Mrs. Jin doesn't have to be humble. In the pawnshop of Jin City, the logistics of the past dynasties have been transferred back and forth, and there must have been a lot of royal things. ”

When Feng Wan heard this, she immediately added: "Yes, among the items stolen by the thief, isn't there the bloodstone on the crown of the Night Falcon Emperor?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Chang Le only felt trembling on his body and looked for the source. It was emanating from Mrs. Jin.

"Not really. This bloodstone was supposed to be paid tribute to the saint, but it was stolen by thieves, and now there is no result. Mrs. Jin glared at Chang Le, her tone cold.

Chang Le waved his sleeves and didn't look at her.

This is Zhang Changxiu's business, what are you doing watching her?

"This matter is very important, and Taishou must have been anxious for a long time. Mrs. Taishou has to take care of Taishou. Feng Wan looked at Chang Le with a smile.

Chang Le glanced at her, caught a glimpse of Hua Chu'er beside her, and smiled: "Mrs. Junshi, don't worry, with the Hua clan here, she can't be tired." ”

"Hmph, Taishou is so annoying, I'm afraid it's because of Mrs. Taishou?" Mrs. Jin spoke coldly, not polite at all.

The person playing the silk bamboo saw that this scene was becoming more and more wrong, and he didn't know what was happening, so he hesitantly stopped the music. The atmosphere of the audience suddenly became depressed.

Chang Le looked around and saw that everyone was not looking good, and said unhappily: "Because of me, what? ”

Mrs. Jin looked at her with white eyes: "Madame doesn't know? Tell me how you can draw the portrait of a thief so accurately, Lady herself. Why did your maid steal the white jade ring of the concubine's room? Isn't there any inevitable connection between all this? ”

Mrs. Li Huduan sat with first-class eyes down, and she was not in the world. Mrs. Feng Wanduwei is first-class, and she has a good posture to watch the monkey show. And the others are all squinting at people and spitting on them.

Chang Le's kneeling legs were a little numb, he straightened his skirt, learned the bold sitting posture of Mrs. Duwei, and said with a smile: "What do you think is the connection?" ”

"What else could it be?" Mrs. Jin sneered, and the gold and silver ornaments on her body were a little dazzling, "Since Mrs. Taishou has something to do with thieves." Your maid is only taking your sins. The thirteen counties all know that you bullied the concubine, and you were too responsible, and you were abandoned in the cold courtyard, which was bleak. Recently, I suddenly went to Qianyun Restaurant to eat and drink. What is the rationale for this? ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

Chang Le also felt that her analysis was very reasonable.

"Mrs. Jin, this is a misunderstanding. The concubine's mother was kind and upright. I would never do such a thing. Moreover, the housewife has relatives and friends outside the house to take care of, and it is nothing to go to Qianyun Restaurant. ”

Hua Chu'er spoke softly, looking bold to prove it for her housewife. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Li Hu's cold gaze, and immediately restrained the smile on the corner of his mouth, and didn't say much.

Whether she was helping Chang Le clarify or discrediting Chang Le with these words can be seen from the sighs under the seat.

"It turns out that Mrs. Taishou is indecent, and it is true that she has affection outside?"

"I thought it was fake......

“……”

Chang Le frowned and looked at them, but he didn't move. I slowly drank half a glass of wine and pressed all the bitter water into my heart. She has to be upright at this time, and the gossip is not close to her.

"Ladies, speak carefully." Mrs. Junshi suddenly spoke solemnly and relieved Chang Le, "Feel free to slander Mrs. Taishou, be careful of prison." Today, I look at Mrs. Taishou, with a good face, where does she look like a vicious woman? The rumors that Madame is vicious are nothing more than chasing after the wind. In any case, Taishou and Mrs. Taishou are family affairs of Taishoufu, so we don't need to say more. Sister Chu'er, don't call Mrs. Taishou as your mother-in-law anymore, how unaffectionate do you seem? It's most misleading. ”
