Chapter 558: Four Concubines
The second lady spoke calmly, thinking about the long room in and out of her words, and did not mention anything they had never asked about the previous birthday banquet.
Mrs. Cui glanced at the second lady and the third lady, and there was a smile on her face: "Okay, of course it's good." ”
The second lady's eyebrows suddenly rose, and she turned her head to Xie Shi and Zheng Yuan and said, "You have to do your best to handle the birthday banquet." ”
The third lady was a little apprehensive, looked at Wang, and said in a low voice, "You should be careful." ”
Wang felt funny in his heart, and his face still bowed his knees respectfully: "Yes, Ah Jia rest assured." ”
The three mothers-in-law discussed it and decided to let Gu Mingzhu and Xie take charge of the banquet, and Wang and Zheng Yuan helped to receive the guests and handle the birthday together.
Although there are previous regulations, but this time Mrs. Cui's birthday is still different, at this time the Cui family is tired of dealing with the Zheng family's schemes, and the relationship between the Cui and Zheng families has even affected the entire Guanlong family, so this time the birthday banquet is afraid that it will not be calm.
Compared with the Wang family and Zheng Yuan's ambition, the Xie family is full of uneasiness, she was born in the Xie family, which has been declining day by day, and she is not as wealthy as Cui Zheng and Lu Yuan, who are rich and powerful, it is already a blessing to be able to marry into the Cui family, and she has been careful all these years when she entered the door, and no one dares to open the crime.
She didn't have a strong temperament, and it seemed to be a great benefit to others like the position of Zongzi, but she was worried and scared day and night, not only did she not dare to fight, but she was also afraid of being involved.
So at this time, she was panicked in her heart, and the second lady tried her best to prevent the long room and the third room from getting the joy of the old lady, and asked Gu Mingzhu to help her, help control the servants, and let Zheng Yuan and the Wang family receive the female dependents, also because Zheng Yuan was born in the Zheng family and was thoughtful, even if she was against the eight-sided exquisite Wang family.
But where did the Xie family take charge of such a thing, he didn't have any bottom in his heart about the list and the list, and he didn't know how to arrange it, so he sat for a while, and finally got up helplessly and told the maidservant: "Go to Yusheng Courtyard." ”
As long as Gu Mingzhu helps Xie Shi with the dots, she doesn't have to set the menu and arrange errands in person, which is naturally much easier, she is sitting in the room and listening to Xiaokui talking: "...... The third young lady sent the autumn pear paste to the old lady's yard yesterday, and the Qin lady talked for a while before going back, and the Qin lady went to the third young lady again this morning, saying that she was going to ask for the autumn pear paste recipe. ”
Knowing that Zheng Yuan would not settle down, Gu Mingzhu smiled faintly, it seemed that she was planning to start from Qin Niang.
It's just that what is the identity of Qin Niang?
Gu Mingzhu recalled that when she first met Qin Niang, the slightly different eyes of everyone in the Cui family, it seemed that there must be something in this, but she didn't know what Cui Lin and Qin Niang had, or Qin Niang's own plans.
She's got to figure it out.
"Fourth young lady, the eldest young lady is here and sits down in the flower hall." The purple mandarin duck came in and said.
Gu Mingzhu was a little surprised, in the days when she married into the Cui Mansion, except for the time when she invited the old lady to a family banquet, she rarely had any contact with her concubine, and they always seemed to be a little estranged from Gu Mingzhu, although they were polite on the face, but there was no intersection in private.
Speaking of which, Xie was the first person to take the initiative to visit her.
Gu Mingzhu went to the flower hall, greeted Xie Shi, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, do you have something to tell me?" ”
Xie Shi saw Gu Mingzhu's calm smile, and the heart that had been hanging a lot was relieved, for some reason, although she had little contact with Gu Mingzhu and didn't know much, she always felt that Gu Mingzhu was something she could trust and rely on.
Her face was a little uncomfortable, it was originally a matter of the long room to take care of the birthday banquet, but now the second room was forced to come over in order to get a face in front of the old lady, but she still wanted to ask Gu Mingzhu for help, she was a little embarrassed to speak.
“…… It's really shameless to say, I haven't done this before, and I don't know where to start for a while," Xie Shi said embarrassedly, "I think about it, I can only come and ask my fifth brother and sister to help me get an idea." ”
Gu Mingzhu didn't expect Xie Shi to come to ask him for advice, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, took a few careful glances at Xie Shi, and saw that she was indeed full of anxiety and sincerity, so he smiled and said: "Sister-in-law is too humble, I am young and far less stable than my sister-in-law, it's okay to help come up with ideas, I'm afraid that my sister-in-law has to come in person to get the idea." ”
When Xie Shi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thanked him repeatedly, and asked people to bring the list and the list up.
After discussing for a long time, Xie became more and more admiring Gu Mingzhu, and in her eyes, it was a mess, and when she arrived at Gu Mingzhu, she sorted out the clues, picked out the key points and arranged them properly, and she also learned a lot on the side.
Gu Mingzhu also has some understanding of the Xie family, and knows that although she is from a family, she has a soft and gentle temperament, but she is very different from the Wang family and Zheng Yuan, and she can have more contacts in the future.
The four of them took care of things together, but it was indeed much faster, and the Wang family was full of energy to perform, so in just a day or two, the list of guests invited to the birthday banquet had been taken out, as in previous years, the banquet was all the wife of the family and the lady of the concubine.
Other people's posts were also sent out quickly, but the Zheng family's posts made it difficult for the Wang family.
“…… In this situation, is this post sent or not? Wang quietly pulled Xie to speak, she would not make up her own mind about such a thing, if she didn't do it properly, not only would she not end up well, but she was afraid that she would be blamed by the old lady and several ladies.
Where did Xie Shi have an idea, and he looked at Gu Mingzhu for help, but Gu Mingzhu lowered his head and only cared about eating the tea soup in the tea pot, and did not answer.
Zheng Yuan sighed softly, and said to the Wang family and the Xie family: "I am from the Zheng family after all, or I will go back in person and send the Zheng family's post." ”
Wang couldn't wait to throw this hot potato out, and said with a smile: "That's really good, there are three brothers and sisters of Lao." ”
She is not stupid, with the current relationship between the Cui and Zheng families, whether the Zheng family is willing to come to the banquet or not, even if she comes, I am afraid that it will not be Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Da Shao, these housewives and grandmothers, maybe there are some side branches or shameless, Mrs. Cui is only afraid that she will be even more annoyed, and she will not be angry with her when the time comes.
Now that Zheng Yuan has taken the initiative to lead this matter, it is natural that she is the daughter of the Zheng family, not to mention that the Wang family believes that even Zheng Yuan has no way to influence the relationship between the Cui and Zheng families, and now at this time, the Zheng family will not give her this face, so it will be in vain to come to the second room, and the position of the son of the sect will not be thought about except for the third room.
Thinking of this, she covered her face with a fan to cover the smugness at the corners of her mouth, and talked to Xie Shi about other things, but she didn't see the sneer that flashed on the face of Zheng Yuan, who was sitting opposite.
