Chapter 394
Not to mention Xu Chu, even Xiao Mingzhu was shocked at this time.
Although she has always looked down on Tang Jiaoer's cousin, before leaving the capital, her brain didn't seem to be so problematic.
In Xiao Mingzhu's impression, this cousin is at most vain, likes to compare, and loves to show her gentleness and virtue in front of outsiders. In contrast, it is to drill into the aristocratic circle with a sharp head.
But if you don't have a brain like this, I haven't heard her shout before.
Don't talk about what she was thinking when she spoke, just say that the Holy God gave marriage, isn't it a blessing that others can't ask for?
Mo said that Sister Chu didn't look proud, even if she did, it wasn't something she should have. How could it come out of her mouth as if it were something unseemly?
"What did Sister Tang say this, I want to congratulate Miss Xu on getting a good fate, how can Sister Tang look at it and be quite annoyed." A woman in a pale yellow gauze skirt who came with Tang Jiao'er looked at Tang Jiao'er suspiciously.
Her tone is crisp, and her slightly chubby round face makes her even more cute. Compared with the sneer in Tang Jiao'er's words, this girl is a little sincere.
As she spoke, she stepped forward, avoided Tang Jiao'er, and smiled at Xu Chu, "Miss Xu, I am Yuan Pujia from the Sincerity Mansion, I have heard my father mention you many times before, and I was so impressed by what I listened to at that time." ”
These words were full of kindness, and it was rare for Xu Chu to look at him softly. She hadn't seen the woman in front of her, but listening to the name of her own family, it was not difficult to think of who her father was.
Sincerely, and it is still the Yuan family, it must be the Yuan who tied up the son and saw the official and dealt with the case of stealing the sky in Jinzhou City with her and Xiao Qinglang.
Xu Chu thought of Master Yuan's style of acting and uprightness, and naturally had a lot of good feelings for Yuan Pujia.
But before she could speak again, Tang Jiao'er, who was stopped from talking, looked at Yuan Pujia with anger on her face and snorted coldly, "You don't want to stammer so fast, although she has good luck, after all, in the end, she is just a country girl with no power and no foundation, even if she has some skills, she can't get on the stage." ”
"With her, you don't have to be stained with dead people!"
Tang Jiao'er glanced at Yuan Pujia unhappily, and said with a calm face, "Sure enough, it was a small family that climbed up, even if it was a splendid and noble posture, it was a visionless." ”
This is obviously said for Yuan Pujia, first of all, Lord Yuan was slowly promoted from the position of county Cheng, and it is also because of his skill from the dragon, plus he is today's confidant, so he has won the respect of others. Second, only the name Yuan Pujia is said to refer to the reeds that have never been shown-spike and the newborn reeds, both of which are common low-value aquatic plants, so the women of the official eunuch family will attack her more often if they have a gap with her. It's as if someone once explained the meaning of Pujia Yiyu in public, insinuating that Yuan Pujia is not worthy of intersecting with them.
Yuan Pujia was not annoyed when she heard this, she just said with a smile: "Small doors and small households have a small way of living, which is much better than the grass on the wall." At the very least, I have close friends, but I don't know how many friends Miss Tang has? ”
She also slapped Tang Jiao'er in the face with her words, so she only had to poke her face and say that the intersection with Tang Jiao'er was mostly for the sake of clinging to the relationship of the Qi Palace. However, this is not wrong. After all, although Du Wei has some names and is also an official position second only to generals among military generals, he is really not a noble person in the capital.
If it is said that the name of Tang Duwei alone, I am afraid that it will not be able to attract many noble women to walk with him.
When Tang Jiao'er heard this, she couldn't help gritting her teeth, and her face turned even more blue and purple.
"Hmph, Miss Zhang, Miss Min, Miss Yu, and Miss Zuo all know me, and they have been playing with me outside the hospital for a long time today, so why aren't they friends?" She said, and sneered, "On the contrary, you, if you are really so backbone, how can you still follow me behind the Wind Lotus Garden today?" ”
However, before she could start to get complacent, the young ladies whose names she had named subconsciously took half a step back and staggered away from her gaze. Although no one opened their mouths to refute her, the message conveyed by that action could not be faked.
They didn't really see the wind making Tang Jiao'er step on the rudder, but Tang Jiao'er was too unscrupulous today. Although the Yuan family is a Qingliu family, it can't stand the trust of the saint, and a few months ago, he directly named Lord Yuan as a sincere uncle, and the meaning of this can be understood even by the daughter's family in the back house. For Tang Jiaoer to offend the Yuan family, the gains outweigh the losses.
What's more, if she dislikes Yuan Pujia's words, if they are spread, she is afraid of offending many ladies in the capital. After all, as the daughter of the Qingliu official family, Yuan Pujia's popularity in Beijing is very good, and in the first two years of the palace banquet, she also received several gifts from the queen mother
Moreover, when they looked at the appearance of the county lord of Mingzhu and their attitude towards Tang Jiaoer at the beginning, they didn't seem to be enthusiastic and familiar. On the contrary, the county lord of Mingzhu was much kinder to Lord Xu, who was tabooed by them.
If you have a fast mind, you suddenly remembered that there was a rumor that the master of Mingzhu County studied under Lord Xu, didn't you mean that the personal relationship between Lord Xu and the Lord of Mingzhu County was not only in the yamen?
Thinking about this, they should also weigh who they want to get close to and who they are far away.
Tang Jiao'er didn't expect that the person who was still affectionate with her just now called her sister turned her face and fell into her own face, and suddenly her expression turned blue and white and became more and more ugly.
Yuan Pujia shrugged her shoulders, spread her hands and said helplessly, "I don't want to either, as soon as I came back to the Qi Wangfu for the first time today, there were no familiar sisters here, so I found a pavilion by myself." At that time, I saw that the big guys were going this way, and I just thought it was going to be a banquet, so I followed. ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Tang Jiaoer was choked, but even Xiao Mingzhu and Xu Chu looked at her a few more times. But looking at his demeanor, there is nothing wrong with it.
Tang Jiao'er was dumbfounded, and it took a while for a while to breathe a sigh of relief.
She only thought that this was Yuan Pujia's excuse, probably wanting to sell well before Xu Chu and Xiao Mingzhu, so she immediately glared at Yuan Pujia and Xu Chu fiercely, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be complacent, who in the capital doesn't know that King Jing'an has always been not only a woman, Xu is for the heart of the Empress Dowager An, he reluctantly married someone as a disguise!" The noble girl in the capital is naturally not good, looking for a girl like you who has no backing, even if she is trampled in the future, I am afraid that she can only break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach. I'll see, there will be a time for you to cry in the future! ”
When Xu Chu heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart. I'm afraid of who's family-raised patients in the second and second grades, even if they don't have brains, they don't have any eyesight? These words, is she able to say them, or say them in public, it is light to say that she is unscrupulous. But whenever she meets someone with a heart, I'm afraid that she will have to be charged with slandering the prince.
"Miss Tang understands the hard work of the Queen Mother and the prince. However, the prince is honest by nature, and the same is true in terms of feelings, so naturally he will not find someone to make do with. Since he personally proposed marriage, he must have been more smooth than Miss Tang's marriage in the future. "Xu Chu is not a person who is unrelenting, especially at the banquet that Mingzhu values very much. She originally wanted to ignore the second middle school girl, but she didn't expect her to be reluctant, so she simply replied with a little mockery, "Oh, Miss Tang is now twenty-eight years old, why haven't you heard any news of marriage?" Isn't it, many young talents in the capital can't get into your eyes, right? ”
Tang Jiao'er's expression sank completely at this time, and her pretty face was completely bloodless. Since he was thrown out of the palace by Xiao Qinglang three years ago, and was not allowed to enter the palace for three consecutive years, anyone with some face has never come to the door to mention his relatives. Even if there are people who come to ask for relatives, most of them are the children of down-and-out official families, or people who have no foundation and background in their families
Although there have been no rumors about her outside, she knows that someone must have noticed that she has not entered the palace for three consecutive years and began to wait and see. After all, in the past, she not only accompanied her parents to the palace to attend banquets, but also accompanied Princess Qi into the palace many times to meet the queen
These were all bargaining chips for her to raise her status in the past, but now they have also become the straw that crushes her. Even some people who want to cling to the Qi Palace, they have to wait and see at this time.
She doesn't look down on people who are partial to life and low doors, even if she marries a housewife, she is not happy. In this way, her marriage was delayed.
In the past, others hindered her relationship with the Qi Palace, and there was no lady Xiuzhen who was so poisonous that she used people's relatives as a raft to satirize, so no one really ridiculed her like this in front of her. But I didn't expect to meet such a sharp-tongued person today, and she really couldn't and shouldn't be forced to refute.
Compared with Tang Jiaoer's embarrassment and embarrassment, Xu Chu is much more relaxed.
She took a sip of the warm tea, her eyebrows stretched as if she was enjoying it.
The ladies who came with Tang Jiaoer mostly looked at Xu Chu secretly, some thought she was really poisonous, but some felt that she was really free and easy. Not long after entering Beijing, he didn't care about his reputation and connections, so he replied.
After all, unlike Yuan Pujia, the Yuan family has already established a firm foothold in the capital after all. Lord Yuan has a special identity, and he often patrols the sky, even if someone cares too much about his background and doesn't make friends with him, he won't make friends with him at will.
