"That is Miss He's fiancΓ©?" Pei Shufen leaned over to Count Zhang on the side and asked.
Earl Zhang glanced back and nodded. Zhenguo Gong Jian Feiyang's family affair with the He family is known all over the capital. We all thought that when the Jian family returned to Beijing two years ago, they should be married. Who knew that Miss He was sick again, and Zhen Guogong waited for her for another two years, and now the happy event is near. β
"Indeed, it is near. Our family also received a wedding post a few days ago. This September is their day of great joy. "Getting married and having children is a favorite topic of conversation among women.
Speaking of the family affairs of Zhenguo Gong Jian's family and Inspector Zuo's Yushi He family, it is really full of twists and turns. When everyone talked about it in private, they felt that it was as turbulent and thrilling as an excerpt.
Pei Shufen quietly shook the small fan of Qingluo beside him, listening intently to these ancient talks.
"That Zhen Guogong is so old, he really doesn't even have anyone in the room?" Pei Shufen listened to it for a long time, a little curious.
"No, not really." The person next to her replied very affirmatively, as if she was the housekeeper of the Zhenguo Mansion, and she was very sure, which made everyone laugh at her.
Pei Shufen laughed, nodded softly and said There must be no one at home, I believe it. But outside......" looked at everyone and made a "you know" look.
The women who gossip together are all married, and they don't shy away from it so much. Hearing Pei Shufen's meaning, he covered his sleeves and said with a smile that he could think of not bringing people to the house to respond to people, he was an excellent man. Marquis Ning Yuan, because of Marquis Ning Yuan, ......, "Thinking of Marquis Ningyuan's many wives and concubines, this Marquis Ning Yuan must wish that other people's families also had a group of wives and concubines." Everyone exchanged a "all in the word" look, looked at Pei Shufen, and smiled meaningfully.
Pei Shufen was angry when he was seen by everyone's ridicule and pity, but he couldn't attack, so he had to turn around a few times in his heart, and said softly that it is common for men to be unable to control it. It's just that there are a few more people at home, and they are all under their noses, so it's easy to take care of. If you accept people outside, you will have more right and wrong. The family is too jealous, so the man retreats to the next best thing, and goes to Liuxiang in Flower Street to stay in Lian, and he is infected with a dirty disease, and he suffers a loss. - The lesser of two evils, I'd rather bring people in than take them outside. β
There were two people next to him who listened to Pei Shufen's words, their hearts moved, they glanced at each other, and said with a smile Ning Yuanhou Gao Jian, we will not bother. With that, he quickly left here and went back to the table. - This Ning Yuanhou looks gentle and gentle, but it is really not to be underestimated......
The other few who were more kind-hearted and couldn't hear the sound of the strings echoed Dao Ning Yuanhou's words on the side. Sometimes, I have to do it. β
Pei Shufen smiled faintly, glanced thoughtfully at the two who left first just now, stopped rambling with the remaining few people, and went back to the table.
Halfway through the flower meeting, Chu Zhongyu used a long and short sentence of her sister-in-law Pei Shufen to catch a knife for her. Yongmei" sends spring back from wind and rain, and the snow welcomes spring. It is already a cliff with a hundred feet of ice, and there are still flowers and branches. Pretty doesn't compete for spring, only reports spring. When the mountains are full of flowers, she is laughing at them" and pulled out the head of the female family.
The scholars who attended the meeting were amazed by the long and short sentences, and saw that Chu Zhongyu was born with the beauty of the country and the fragrance of the sky, which was a truly rare talent and appearance, which aroused more and more the heroic poetry of the scholars. For a while, the table in front of everyone in Ningyuan's Marquis Mansion was full of poems sent by the Shizi opposite, asking the second girl of Chu to comment on one or two.
King Anjun and the princess read Chu Zhongyu's poems, and they were also full of praise.
This time, the "ask the master of fragrant flowers" is none other than Chu Zhongyu. And this year's famous flower must be Lamei.
Xu Xin's mind moved quickly, and he immediately thought of the Lamei Courtyard behind the Guanyin Dharma Hall of Dajue Temple, where there are the rarest Lamei tree species in the country. From tomorrow, it's definitely going to be a break. It's March 3 now, and Lamei is almost grateful, if you don't start earlier, there will be no slag left......
"Huiqiu, you hurry up, tell the big shopkeeper of the Zhenhao Pavilion, let him go to the Dajue Temple immediately, take my post, find the abbot, and buy all the plum blossoms in the Lamei Courtyard behind the Guanyin Dharma Hall of the Dajue Temple. - How many, how much to buy. The plum petals were collected and sent to the perfume room to extract the plum flavor. Remember to ...... quickly" Xu lowered his voice very low, and spoke quickly, beware of others listening. Hui Qiu has been following Xu all the year round, so she naturally knows what she has said.
Zhenhao Hall is a spice shop among many shops, usually also do business, there are all kinds of sachets, incense cakes, incense towels, incense fans for sale, go to the upper route, the price of each piece is more than gold, all are boutiques.
After Xu confessed, Huiqiu had fully understood, smiled and saluted Xu Xing, rest assured, and the slave and maid would take care of it. β
Every year, the flower party of Anjun Wangfu will launch a peerless beauty and a famous flower in the city. It's just a beautiful woman, that flower is amazing, but it's not just for people to enjoy.
Every time a famous flower is ordered in the Anjun Palace, it will be sold well in the same year. The ladies and ladies of the entire Great Qi Dynasty, from March to March 3, all stared at the Anjun Palace, just for the kind of jewelry, the kind of patterns, and the kind of fragrance that was popular this year. No, people will be laughed at and embarrassed to come out and walk around with people. At the same time, the various silver and gold shops and jewelry workshops related to it, as well as various tailor shops and spice shops, will be moved by the wind and take the opportunity to make a fortune.
In previous years, I had never been to the flower party, and when I heard the news, I was often one step late. Doing business is about the first opportunity, and for Xu, he is never willing to follow behind others to pick up people's wisdom. - If you lose the opportunity to do business, don't do it.
This time, Xu wants to make sure that from tomorrow onwards, the most upscale plum fragrance in the capital will come from Xu's Zhenhao Pavilion.
While talking and laughing here, Xu has already set a big deal for Xu's shop.
He Ningxin sat aside, secretly admired Xu secretly, and gently snuggled, she knew so much about Xu Daoniang, could she teach her daughter? β
Xu was overjoyed. She had persuaded He Ningxin many times before, wanting to teach her some ways to do business, but He Ningxin disliked her for being too "coppery" and didn't want to learn at all. Now he took the initiative to ask to follow her to practice, and he really kept the clouds open and saw the moon.
"I will leave these businesses to you in the future. If you don't want to learn, I'll die of sorrow. Xu smiled and took He Ningxin in his arms and gently stroked her forehead.
He Ningxin pursed her lips and smiled, and gave half of the shop to Xu Daoniang to the eldest brother and Xing'er. He Ningxin's eldest brother, He Ningqi, is now studying hard at home and preparing to take the exam. He Ningqi has an eight-year-old He Xingyuan, who also enlightened Meng early and entered school.
Xu thought of his grandson, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and said that your sister-in-law is not a material for business. Your eldest brother is going to be an official in the future, and the shop is in vain for him. If you have the heart, take good care of these shops and give your eldest brother's family dividends. β
He Ningxin used to learn a subset of classics and history, and she knew the things of businessmen, but she didn't know why. Now that I have changed my identity and lived again, I suddenly became interested in businessmen.
Song Liangyu sat on the table behind the princess and the eldest princess of Shangshou'an County, on which the left was neither left nor right, twisting around like candy.
Princess Anjun had something in her heart, and when she saw that the sun was almost over, she ordered the maid beside her, asking her to go and talk to the prince, and today's flower party will end here.
The maid passed the word, and King Anjun nodded in agreement, and said a few words to the poet who was scurrying around with the poem he was holding, and the people on the other side all returned to the table.
Princess Anjun nodded with a smile over there, and asked the eldest princess a few words sideways. The eldest princess's face turned red, but she also responded.
In the past, the flower owner and the named flower were all made by the princess of Anjun. Today, because the eldest princess was here, the eldest princess was allowed to sit in the host's seat, and the princess of Dai'an County gave the queen mother and Ning Yuanhou's sister-in-law Chu Zhongyu a diamond hair crown. Today's famous flower, as expected, really ordered Lamei.
Chu Zhongyu saw that it was not Princess Anjun who crowned her, and King Anjun did not say anything about it, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart. bowed his head and thanked the eldest princess, and Wenwen quietly returned to the table and sat down.
Song Liangyu took a look, sneaked to the He family's table, patted He Ningxin twice on the back, and whispered I seem to be very unhappy, I am a little worried about her. β
He Ningxin glanced at Princess Anjun attentively, and saw that she was behaving as usual, gentle and elegant, and she couldn't see that she was unhappy at all.
"Are you thinking too much? I think you're okay. He Ningxin turned around and comforted Song Liangyu.
Song Liangyu was a little anxious, and took He Ningxin's hand from behind and shook it You don't know. The more I had something on my mind, the calmer my face became. I'm her dear, and I can't be more familiar with her. β
He Ningxin smiled and pulled Song Liangyu to sit at the table, and said You rest first, don't worry. When the flowers are gone, you will ask you again. If it's really difficult, let's find a way, okay? β
Song Liangyu had no other way at this time, so he sat sullenly beside He Ningxin, pouring wine one after another.
He Ningxin knew that it was just fruit wine, sweet and silky, not intoxicating, and he didn't care much.
Princess Anjun saw Song Liangyu drinking wine from left to right on the He family's side, she was angry and funny, she left in person, said a few words to Xu, and rewarded He Ningxin with a mutton fat jade bracelet, so that people helped Song Liangyu, who was already a little drunk, to sober up.
He Ningxin didn't expect that Song Liangyu didn't drink at all, and even such fruit wine made her drunk, and she felt more and more funny.
At this time, it was not early, and the housekeeper of the palace came out to let everyone go to the side hall of the palace for dinner.
The people at the flower party scattered in twos and threes.
Previously, Xu saw Jian Lao bring Jian Feiyi in, and he was also busy taking He Ningxin to greet them and talk to them. It's just that Jian Lao has been indifferent, and Jian Feiyi is absent-minded and doesn't want to pay attention to people. Xu is also a person with anger, and when he saw this, he said goodbye and returned to the table, and no longer took care of Jian Lao.
And Jian Lao had already wanted to stay away from the He family, but occasionally heard those who talked about Tianshui Bi and JΓ'pΗn Green Fei's head, and those eyes never left He Ningxin's head and body. When he saw that Princess Anjun also favored the people of the He family, Jian Lao had another thought, and he also re-weighed seventeen or eighteen back and forth in his heart.
