Chapter 199: Flower Viewing Banquet
Let's go! His Majesty Qin Ranran held his chin high, and there was no expression on his face, and there was no superfluous look.
Lu Chengan grabbed Ahri's front paws and made it stand up, blocking the hand he was holding on his chest.
It's so domineering!
is worthy of my Lu Chengan's woman!
Lu Chengan took a few deep breaths, suppressed the trembling in his heart, and calmed the goosebumps that erupted on his body.
He watched Qin Ranran walk out of the room, accompanied by Lu Jiu and Mai Sui, walked out of the main courtyard with his head held high, and whispered to Ahri, who was standing on top of him obediently: "Your mother is really beautiful today. ”
The carriage slowly walked out of the General's Mansion, and Qin Ranran's body collapsed suddenly.
She turned her head and asked Lu Jiu, "How was my momentum just now?" ”
Lu Jiu's face was full of amazement: "Madam, you just now, you are ......" Lu Jiu was for a long time, and he didn't say what it was.
Mai Sui saw that Lu Jiu didn't say anything for a long time, so he slapped her and said, "It's just a goddess!" ”
Qin Ranran was stunned, she just wanted to pretend to be cold in front of Lu Chengan, how could she get such high praise from this maid!
"Madam, if the Governor's wife is disrespectful in a moment, you will look at her with the expression you just now, and promise that she will never dare to provoke you again." Mai Sui continued to suggest.
Qin Ranran thought about it, covered her mouth for a while, and practiced the cold and noble just now a few times, until the carriage entered the gate of the Governor's Palace, she showed a gentle smile and sat in the car.
She listened to the whispered conversation outside, the corners of her mouth curled upward.
Today is the day when she will officially appear in the Suzhou women's circle, no matter what the process is, she will divide her own faction in this women's circle.
"Ma'am, slow down." Lu Jiu took the lead in getting out of the car, quietly glanced around among the female dependents, found a few familiar faces, and then turned around and helped Qin Ranran's hand, let her step on the stool steadily, and get out of the car.
The female relatives of Suzhou officials, big and small, were already waiting at the Hanging Flower Gate, and they were all discussing in a low voice the wife of the newly arrived Ganshan General before Qin Ranran's arrival.
More often than not, they heard about Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yang's nephew, and secretly gloated in their hearts.
As soon as the woman in the white fox fur stepped out of the carriage, the eyes of the ladies could no longer take their eyes off her.
Who said that General Gan Shaan's wife is just a rural village woman, who only knows the pulse and herbs, is she blind?
Where is this free-spirited fairy-like character? Could it be that she is still the maid of the Lu Mansion?
"Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu is really a beauty." Seeing Qin Ranran get out of the carriage, Mrs. Yang stepped forward and said a little sourly.
As soon as Qin Ranran heard this and this tone, she immediately understood the temperament of this Mrs. Yang.
When we met for the first time, no official lady would say such a thing, at most, after getting acquainted, they jokingly said it to each other.
Qin Ranran consciously ignored the content and sourness of those words, and smiled and blessed her body: "Mrs. Yang." ”
Mrs. Yang pursed her lips in concealment, remembering what the master of the family had told her, and put on a dignified smile: "Mrs. Lu, we have been waiting for a long time. ”
Qin Ranran really didn't know if this sentence was her nature or deliberately retaliated against her nephew's matter, so she had to look up at the expressions of the people around her first, and saw that everyone didn't care, so she smiled and said: "Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and it is the first time to enjoy the flowers with everyone, so I can't come out casually, so I delayed for a while." ”
A woman in a blue dress in the crowd smiled and answered, "Mrs. Lu is polite, we haven't been there for long." ”
When Mrs. Yang saw the woman talking, she was very disdainful, and directly interrupted her: "Okay, let's go in." ”
The woman was not angry, whispered a few words to the person next to her, and followed everyone in.
At the end of February, Suzhou actually had no money to spend, and spending a lot of money to transport it from the south was also a big expense to take care of the journey, and Mrs. Yang was reluctant to spend this money anyway.
As a result, the flower viewing banquet became a leaf appreciation and flower appreciation painting.
Qin Ranran looked at the pots of pine bonsai in the flower hall and the plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum hanging on the wall, and suddenly didn't know what to do to look not too rude.
"I'm a person, I love these bonsai, it's much more interesting than those flowers and grasses." Mrs. Yang pointed to the bonsai in front of her and introduced it to Qin Ranran.
She didn't observe the expression on Qin Ranran's face, she just said with a dignified and polite smile.
Qin Ranran smiled and nodded: "Bonsai are all small to big, from the square inch to see the sky, Mrs. Yang has this heart, it is really a rare woman." ”
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she immediately became proud: "That's it, I like to fiddle with these things the most on weekdays." ”
Qin Ranran was a little skeptical when she heard this, but she didn't want to verify it much, so she just nodded with a smile and said, "If I don't understand anything about bonsai in the future, I'll come to ask Mrs. Yang." ”
Mrs. Yang's chin raised: "This is nature." ”
After saying this, she seemed to remember something, and immediately said, "Mrs. Lu, please, I'll go and entertain the other guests." ”
"Mrs. Yang can just go and get busy, don't worry too much about me." Qin Ran blessed her body and said.
Mrs. Yang continued to raise her chin, like a proud white goose, and strode towards the ladies she knew.
"I've seen Mrs. Lu." The lady in the blue dress who answered Qin Ranran's words just now came over and blessed her body, "I am the wife of Cheng Zhi, the commander of the Moxi Army, and my husband Jun was originally a soldier under General Lu, he had already met the general a few days ago, but unfortunately I was able to see my wife today." ”
Seeing Lu Jiu nodding slightly at her, Qin Ranran immediately drew Mrs. Cheng into her camp and stretched out her hand to help her up: "Mrs. Cheng is polite, I didn't dare to post to everyone when I first arrived, for fear of making a joke, I don't plan to take advantage of today to get acquainted with everyone, and then pick a time to invite everyone to come over." ”
Mrs. Cheng knew the meaning of Qin Ranran's words, and she also knew that her husband and General Lu were in the same camp, and she was also a lot more relieved.
She just wanted to introduce a familiar lady to Qin Ranran, but she stopped again.
She leaned slightly to the side, blocking Mrs. Yang's sight to this side, and said in a low voice: "Now that Mrs. Yang is the dominant one in the capital, our old troops of General Lu are not as good as Mrs. Yang in terms of identity and status, so we have to gather in private, and we don't dare to gather in the open." ”
"In case this Mrs. Yang's pillow blows in the wind and cuts off her husband's career, it will be worth the loss."
Mrs. Cheng had a smile on her face, but there was helplessness in her smile.
