Chapter 275: Twenty Lady of the Poor Family
Huang Xianzhi took Sima Yue'an's hand and played, and replied: "Shi Niang is the original sister-in-law, but she is very smart, as far as I can see, if she is not a woman, the royal man is afraid that only one of them will not be able to compare with her." She only helped you because you are now part of the Huang family, and she doesn't want you to be ugly at the banquet and affect the Huang family. ”
"Sure enough, smarter than the average woman." Sima Yue'an praised.
"It's a pity that my vision is too small and I have too little knowledge." Huang Xianzhi felt sorry for Huang Siniang, "Coupled with her status as a concubine, she is not conspicuous among the nobles, and there is no good candidate to marry in the future." ”
Sima Yuean said: "I accepted her kindness, I can help her choose the candidate to marry, and help her choose the most suitable one." ”
Huang Xianzhi said: "You are kind-hearted. In fact, she doesn't have such good intentions to help you, mainly because as a concubine, she is very untreated by Mrs. Huang, and Hao Qinyun's relationship with her was not good at the beginning. She approached you with the idea that the enemy is a friend. ”
Sima Yue'an said: "It's just to help her find a suitable husband, it's just a gesture for me." I don't want to be friends with her, I don't care if she really helps me. ”
Huang Xianzhi: "You can try to make a few friends, among the nobles in the capital, there are a few people with good character and talent, such as the sixth mother of the Xie family, the third mother of the Cui family, and the fourth mother of the Xun family, ......"
Sima Yue'an smiled: "Are you quite familiar with them?" ”
Huang Xianzhi hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "What, I am familiar with their brothers, and my understanding of them comes from their brothers, and I am not familiar with them." You're the only one in my heart. ”
Sima Yuean snorted lightly, stretched out his finger and poked Huang Xianzhi's forehead.
Huang Xianzhi grinned, stretched out his hand to grab Sima Yuean's fingers, lowered his head, and printed Sima Yuean's lips on his lips......
Two days later, Sima Yue'an, accompanied by Huang Xianzhi, went to Lufu. This time, in order to embarrass Sima Yue'an, the nobles of the capital deliberately separated the male and female guests and divided them into two courtyards. Both courtyards have curved waterways, and the theme of this banquet is also meandering water.
Sima Yue'an was ostensibly the highest among all the noblewomen and nobles, and was invited by the eldest lady of the Lu family to sit down at the top. The so-called top seat is only in the pavilion, with a shield overhead, unlike everyone else who sits in the garden and can see the scenery in the garden with a turn of her eyes, but it is much better than the scenery where she is surrounded by people on three sides and can only see a small number of views.
All the nobles stepped forward to give Sima Yue'an a salute, except for Huang Siniang and a few ladies of the Xie family, the others were very perfunctory, and their eyes were either flashing with malice or watching a good show, which made Sima Yue sneer with peace of mind.
Huang Siniang asked with a smile; "Seventh sister-in-law, have you brought a crystal cake over today?"
Sima Yuean thanked Huang Siniang for her kindness, and said with a smile: "Naturally, I brought it, there are a lot of them, and you can eat as much as you want." ”
After speaking, he said to Aunt Lu: "Lady, can you send a few people with my maid to my ox cart and bring the food box over?" ”
Aunt Lu said with a smile: "The princess is really hearted, and she even prepared food to the door." ”
As he spoke, he sent a few maids to follow Sima Yue'an's eldest maid Hongling away.
I heard that Liuniang of the Xie family asked Huang Siniang with a smile: "Then the crystal cake must be delicious, right?" It makes you miss it. ”
Huang Siniang was surprised that the Xie family was on the side of the eldest princess, and she was glad that she had chosen the right one, so she smiled and said: "Of course it's delicious, not only delicious, but also very beautiful, crystal clear, more crystal clear than the finest glass, there are beautiful flowers in it, and the colors are also different, so beautiful that I can't bear to eat it." The seventh sister-in-law said that the crystal cake can only be stored for two days, and it will be bad after two days, so I can bear to eat it. ”
"Is it so exaggerated?" A little lady asked incredulously. What delicious and good-looking dim sum can be made with the native bun of the eldest princess of Zhaoyang?
"I'm not exaggerating at all, but I don't have enough language to describe one-tenth of the crystal cake." Huang Shi Niang said.
"Her Royal Highness the princess is dexterous, I believe that the crystal cake is as good as you say." Xie Liuniang said, nodding at Sima Yuean.
Sima Yue'an smiled and nodded in return. Xie Liuniang's maintenance of her came from Xie Bai and Xie Han, and because she was a partner of the Xie family, in addition to the toothbrush and soap business, Sima Yuean took out the matching recipe and sold it to the Xie family. And the reason why she sold to the Xie family was not to sell to other families, in addition to her previous relationship with the Xie family, but also because the Xie family was the top family closest to the royal family.
Hit a group, win over a group, and split the family from the inside, this is the strategy set by Sima Yuean and the emperor, and the Xie family belongs to the group that is being wooed. And with Sima Yue'an as the intermediary, the Xie family and the emperor have reached some kind of agreement.
The other nobles all pouted, thinking that Xie Liuniang and Huang Siniang patted Sima Yuean's sycophants, and they didn't believe that a dirt bun could make anything good.
Hongling came over with more than a dozen maids, each carrying a large food box in their hands. Hongling walked to Sima Yue'an and Aunt Lu, and the other maids went to the other nobles.
Hongling opened the food box and took out a plate of crystal cakes to give to Sima Yue'an.
Sima Yuean opened his mouth to stop: "First give the lady of the Lu family, the lady of the Huang family and the lady of the Xie family." ”
"Yes." Hongling answered, turned around, and put the plate in his hand in front of the aunt of the Lu family.
The eyes of the eldest lady of the Lu family widened, and her gaze was condensed on the crystal cake in front of her. It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful, it's like a brilliant crystal, it's even more beautiful than her most beautiful jewelry, it's so beautiful that she can't swallow it. He immediately understood Huang Shi Niang's mood when he ate crystal cakes. Such beautiful food, where can you bear to destroy it!
The nobles were in the same mood as Aunt Lu, and they were completely conquered by the crystal cake. It's so beautiful!
"Don't just watch, eat, let it go for a long time, the crystal cake will be bad." Sima Yue'an's chuckle reached everyone's ears.
The noble goddesses raised their heads with complicated expressions and looked at Sima Yue'an. Such a beautiful food was actually conceived by this princess from the countryside? She doesn't seem to be as vulgar as they think!
Some nobles thought of Huang Xianzhi. That's right, with Huang Xianzhi's high vision, how could he marry a vulgar woman, it must be that the eldest princess of Zhaoyang has something different that attracted Huang Xianzhi.
Some noble girls didn't think of this, and they guessed with malicious hearts, thinking that Sima Yue'an must have occupied other people's achievements, and the crystal cake was not what she came up with at all.
