…………………
"Hmph, the ninth sister is out of the limelight today. [≮No pop-up advertising Yan Mo Xuan ≯ωωω.yanmoxuan.**],
Xie Lingyun heard Xie Ruxue's inexplicable words, and only then did she realize that because of Ling'er's actions, a pair of curious eyes were staring at her, and she shouted in her heart that she couldn't stand it. I didn't want to be high-profile, but because of Ling'er, it was difficult for her to be low-key. In order to avoid everyone's eyes, she quickly hid behind the eldest lady.
At this time, Xie Lingyun was thinking about how to avoid everyone's eyes, but she didn't know that there was a pair of sharp eyes in the room, and she was staring at her tightly since she entered the house. And Mrs. Tai, who seemed to be talking to others, did not miss this scene with a pair of shrewd eyes.
"Daughter, since Ling'er likes you so much, you and your mother should go and sit opposite." I don't know why the old princess treats their eldest lady with such an attitude, standing there awkwardly and not knowing what to do: it just so happened that Ling'er came to talk to Xie Lingyun, and saw Ling'er's mother's friendly attitude towards Xie Lingyun, her eyes lit up, as if she had seen the dawn, and after speaking, she didn't care whether Xie Lingyun wanted to or not, so she stepped forward and climbed with Ling'er's mother.
"Madame, who are you?" Ling'er's mother first smiled at Xie Lingyun, and then introduced the eldest lady politely and sparsely: "My husband's surname is Qi." With a few words, it is obvious that Mrs. Qi is not very interested in the eldest wife.
"Hello Sister Lingyun's mother, my father is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites." Ling'er, who was holding Xie Lingyun's hand, suddenly interjected.
The eldest lady's eyes lit up again when she heard this, and she looked at Mrs. Qi's eyes more eagerly, "Oh, this is really rude, it turned out to be Lord Qi's wife and daughter, please forgive me if there is any rudeness." After speaking, the eldest lady was going to kneel down and bow to Mrs. Qi.
"You don't have to be like this, now it's for Mrs. Tai's birthday, but I can't afford your gift." Mrs. Qi's voice was a little colder again, and it seemed that she didn't like the eldest lady's approach.
Xie Lingyun heard Mrs. Qi's words on the side, and the corners of her mouth curled happily Mrs. Qi's words were nothing at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she could hear the meaning of ridicule. Originally, it was for the old princess to celebrate her birthday, but the eldest lady didn't care about it, but in order to tie up with the powerful, she wanted to give Mrs. Qi a big gift, which was really a bit excessive, after all, the biggest lady in the house was Mrs. Qi. If the eldest lady is successful, not only will the eldest lady have no face, but Mrs. Qi will also look bad.
At this time, suddenly a gorgeously dressed woman in the crowd said in a strange voice: "Oh, but it reminds me of it" Hangzhou Xie Mansion, it won't be Hangzhou Xie Jing who wants to be a concubine for our prince, right?" "The person who spoke was Mrs. Wei, the wife of the household servant, this woman was an authentic eighth woman, she loved to inquire about everything, and her mouth was very scathing, and she was a powerful lord, this time if it weren't for Lord Wei's relationship with Prince Jian's mansion, Mrs. Wei would not have been able to enter Prince Jian's mansion anyway, let alone congratulate Mrs. Jian on her birthday.
When the eldest lady was introduced just now, Mrs. Wei, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, looked thoughtful. Hearing the eldest lady speak again, and seeing Xie Ruxue and Xie Yafu deliberately currying favor with the lady, she suddenly thought of what she heard a few days ago, and then she had what she just said.
A trace of annoyance flashed on the eldest lady's face, if this Mrs. Wei didn't speak in this tone, maybe the eldest lady didn't think there was anything, but felt that this was a good time to talk to Mrs. Tai. After all, she came for Mrs. Tai, and Mrs. Tai's attitude when she entered the door made her heart fall into a trough.
Now that she has been called out by Mrs. Wei again, she really feels that it is not suitable to go out today, and there are many troubles. Standing there awkwardly, he no longer had the ingenuity of the eight-sided exquisite, and he didn't know what to say to deal with it.
But Mrs. Wei didn't seem to see the eldest lady's nursery, and then gossiped: "Giggles, I heard that the Xie Mansion is a sister who is going to enter our Prince Jane's Mansion, why are there three daughters here, so I have to enter one of them." After speaking, her pair of thief-eyed eyes looked at Xie Lingyun and the three of them as if she was assessing whether the three of them were qualified to be concubines of the world.
Xie Lingyun felt unswerving in her heart, lying down and being shot, she was very angry. But I also wondered why this woman was so hostile? When she inadvertently saw the woman and the charming but arrogant woman in front of her, she had a little understanding in her heart, but she didn't want to be someone else's imaginary enemy, and when she was about to clarify that she was not a candidate to be a concubine for the prince, she had only been talking to others, and Mrs. Tai, who didn't seem to look at this side, opened it. "Give my son a concubine?" Where did you hear about it, it's a matter of pure fiction. As soon as Mrs. Tai opened her mouth, she denied it.
The eldest lady was stunned, she never thought that Mrs. Tai would say such a thing, but in Hangzhou at that time, it was obviously said that the four girls and the fifth girls would enter the palace, why did Mrs. Tai change the hexagram again.
"Old princess, it was clear that ...... at that time," the eldest lady panicked and wanted to justify.
"Oh, I was asked to mention this at the time, but this concubine heard that the young lady in your mansion is unwilling to be a concubine for my son, I don't know if there is such a thing!" Mrs. Tai looked at the eldest lady with sharp eyes.
The eldest lady never thought that the matter in Hangzhou would reach Mrs. Tai's ears, at this time she still had something unclear, Mrs. Tai's attitude towards her stemmed from this, for a while she gritted her teeth at the two concubines in the family, and she couldn't wait to punish those two things who didn't know what to do now.
Although the eldest lady was angry with Xie Yuting and Xie Yuhan in her heart, she couldn't help but make amends, because since Mrs. Tai had made the matter clear, it showed that there was still room for relaxation. Otherwise, Mrs. Tai could ignore them, and she didn't need to give her an invitation, just refuse.
The eldest lady figured out these things in her heart, raised her smiling face in a blink of an eye, and said cautiously: "Please be angry, princess, this is ...... This is indeed my two unsuccessful daughters who are short-sighted and don't know how thick the sky is, and I can't be angry at home, so I licked my face and personally brought three well-behaved and obedient daughters, so that the princess can decide. ”
Xie Ruxue and Xie Yafu couldn't show joy and shyness on their faces, but Xie Lingyun trembled in her heart. When Mrs. Tai said what she had just said, she had a bad premonition in her heart, and now when she heard the words of the eldest lady, she really felt that it was a bolt from the blue. She clearly understood that the eldest lady gave up Xie Yuting and Xie Yuhan's intention of entering the palace because the lady knew everything, and retreated to let one or two of the three of them replace her. Afraid of being favored by Mrs. Tai, she shrank into the crowd quietly, trying not to stand in a conspicuous place.
"Oops." Mrs. Tai had not yet spoken, but Mrs. Wei opened it again. , She looked at the eldest lady like a monster and shouted: "This is really strange, my sister is unwilling to let my sister replace me, hum, what do you think of our prince, do you think that only your Xie family has a daughter, or do you think that only your family can be worthy of our prince?" ”
The eldest lady wondered in her heart, why did the woman in front of her oppose her everywhere, not to mention the gun and stick, she was still hostile, but she was not good at stubble. It is inevitable to give her a kiss to Prince Jian's mansion, whoever wants to stand in her way, whether she is a powerful person in the capital or not, she will not just forget it.
After thinking about it, the eldest lady felt confident, and at this time she had a good calculation in her heart, and she had a kiss with Prince Jian's mansion, and she was still afraid of who would go in this capital.
"This lady, please pay attention to what you say, a mouthful of the prince, how noble the identity of the prince is, and you are a woman who can scream casually, I really don't know what to say, and I am not afraid of being laughed at" Heng, even if it is a woman from a small place who understands the truth, I didn't expect that in the capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are people who are not as sensible as a woman who has never seen the world.
The eldest lady said this very hard, which was completely different from the way she was low and small just now. Such a big lady made Mrs. Qi standing next to her inevitably take a look, puzzled that things had come to this point, Mrs. Qi was obviously angry, why was this big lady full of confidence, could it be that she was crazy?
Mrs. Qi didn't understand why the eldest lady had changed so much, but Xie Lingyun guessed a little, she saw that the eldest lady was just angry, but it didn't seem like she was really annoyed with the eldest lady. Since Mrs. Tai heard that Xie Yuhan and the others were unwilling, and they still had hope for the eldest wife, it was possible that the son of the world really had some unsightly hidden disease. Although she inevitably wants to find an ancient person to live for a lifetime, she doesn't expect any husband and wife here to raise their eyebrows and love each other, but she doesn't want to find someone with a hidden disease. Whatever she said, she couldn't let Mrs. Tai and others notice her.
Xie Lingyun stood in the crowd for a while, but Xie Ruxue and Xie Yafu were the opposite.
I saw two people walking up to Mrs. Tai together, kneeling down and saying without hesitation: "Princess, what the lady said just now, Ru Xue and my sister listened to it is really unpleasant, although it is said that my two sisters were blinded by lard and said some indecent words, but our mother also punished my two sisters for this, and now our mother brought me and my sister here, but also with the heart of making amends to the princess, my mother decided to let me and my sister serve the prince, but also to see me and my sister honest and duty, please princess to see, Our mother is by no means what the lady just said. ”
Xie Yafu didn't squeak from beginning to end, but she didn't miss the expressions and movements that should be moving. made Xie Lingyun stunned in the crowd, only now did she really see what it means to open her eyes and talk nonsense, if she didn't know what was going on, she would really be deceived by Xie Ruxue's excellent acting skills, and she would have thought that the eldest lady had such an arrangement a long time ago. Quietly, she glanced at the eldest lady, and saw that the eldest lady's face was also a little stunned, probably because she was also shocked by Xie Ruxue's acting skills.
If Xie Lingyun didn't feel that the occasion was wrong, and the eldest lady had such an expression, she would have to laugh out loud. Since Xie Ruxue left her out when she spoke, she was also happy to stand on the side and watch the play, I don't know what Mrs. Tai will do next? ≮Yan Moxuan no pop-up ads≯ .
