Chapter Eighty-Seven: Marriage Proposal (3)
Chapter 87: Marriage Proposal (3)
The next day, the Tao Mansion cleaned the yard exceptionally clean, and the eldest lady's house was filled with many more ornaments. Rong Hua went to greet the eldest lady early in the morning, but was greeted by the eldest lady, and the eldest lady was full of joy, "I'm going to your second sister, do you want to go over together?" ”
Rong Hua hadn't replied yet, the eldest lady had already walked forward, and Rong Hua had to follow.
Deacon Cui's family was holding a few sets of ready-to-wear clothes, with a flattering face, "Second Miss is a blessed one, you don't know how beautiful this shirt is when you wear it." ”
When everyone arrived at Yaohua's courtyard, the eldest lady was even more open, Yaohua was served by the maid and put on a dress, the eldest lady was happy while watching, Yaohua catered to the eldest lady's smile, but a trace of reluctance could be seen on her face.
The eldest lady was still like a baby, and arranged the Yaohua house up and down, and then left with confidence.
The weather was exceptionally good, and the sun shone into the yard early, making people feel warm.
As soon as Rong Hua came back, Jinxiu begged Rong Hua to teach her to play chess. Anyway, there was nothing to do, Rong Hua took the chess game and taught it seriously.
Mu Hibiscus took the small pestle to work in the yard, and as soon as the petals on the silk were embroidered with two stitches, he saw Yaqin, who was beside the eldest lady, leading a woman wearing a parrot green gown.
Mu Hibiscus glanced at it, this woman was the one who came to the mansion with Gu Gongzi last time, and couldn't help but purse her lips.
Yaqin said: "Mrs. is busy, let me take Mrs. around." ”
Mu Hibiscus couldn't help sneering in his heart, who is called Madame? Even the eldest lady doesn't have such a formal name. The eldest lady carefully arranged the house today, ready to welcome others, and since she didn't want to talk to this woman, she asked Yaqin to take this woman around the garden, but it was not good where to go, but she only went to the courtyard of Miss Eight to get it.
Once is not enough, you have to come a second time.
The woman smiled at the hibiscus, then stood on tiptoe to look inside, and said for a while: "Miss Eight's yard is not small, it is still a courtyard." ”
Mu Hibiscus said: "This is not my young lady's yard, but I moved here for a while." ”
The woman let out an "oh" and walked forward.
Hibiscus said: "What's so beautiful here, the plum blossoms in the yard are blooming, and this year's plum blossoms are blooming, and no one is willing to break branches and insert bottles." It's better to go over and look at the plum blossoms. ”
The woman said, "Plum blossoms are common, but I haven't seen Miss's embroidery room." ”
Mu Hibiscus smiled, "Although Miss's embroidery room can't be entered casually, since it's a guest in the house, it shouldn't be stopped, it's just that Miss is playing chess, so don't let people disturb it." ”
The woman heard the meaning of Mu Hibiscus, but she had never been able to straighten her waist in front of people, if it weren't for his distant cousin Gu Ying giving her some silver to let her come here, she wouldn't have been able to enter the mansion of this five-grade compound, thinking about it like this, Mu Hibiscus didn't care about those sarcastic words, and smiled, "I don't mean anything else, I just heard that my wife said that Miss's female red skills are very good, and I especially want to see it." ”
Hibiscus glanced at the woman up and down a few times, "But unfortunately, Miss has done some things before, and people are leaving, I said earlier, I can't give them, how can anyone take Miss's things." ”
The words of hibiscus are like needles. Yaqin frowned and glanced at Hibiscus with disgust.
The woman had no other reason but to leave with Yaqin for the time being.
Hibiscus returned to the house and sat on the chair brocade and sulked, "Who knows what Yaqin is going to do when she brings her in?" If you take something to ruin our young lady's reputation, if you don't say anything that doesn't hurt your ears, you may not get into trouble. ”
Rong Hua smiled, these things can't be prevented, and the marriage of the children can be used in exchange for benefits, not to mention the concubine. There is obviously a guest coming to the mansion today, but the eldest lady still keeps this woman, the purpose can be imagined, that is, she wants Gu Ying to completely give up the idea of marrying other young ladies.
Advantech is just like her.
It can be seen that this woman is going to the house today to mention the young lady to the eldest lady.
The only lady in the house is Yaohua. Exchanging the things in your hands for the greatest benefit is the essence of splashing.
Inferred from this, today is probably the Hou Mansion coming to propose.
……
When I arrived in Riyu, someone from outside reported, "There is a lady from the right capital of the Imperial Palace." ”
The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly stood up, and called the woman, "Please come in." ”
When the woman saw that the eldest lady was so eager, she hurriedly turned her head and trot.
The eldest lady said again: "Wait a minute, what a panic." ”
The mother-in-law who reported was confused for a while, and took a step forward absentmindedly, and was suddenly knocked to the ground by her own feet.
The eldest lady laughed and scolded, "Useless things." He tidied up his clothes and strode out.
Mrs. Ren, the right capital of the Imperial Palace, is the same as the eldest lady, whose ancestral home is Fengtianfu, and she has had several contacts with the eldest lady at the banquet of the Ministry of Shangshufu, but Mrs. Ren does not talk much but is very close to the eldest wife. Today, entrusted by the Xue Mansion, I am even more willing to go, seeing the eldest lady greeted her, Mrs. Ren hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, the eldest lady invited Mrs. Ren into the house, the two of them gossiped about some homely things, and the eldest lady said: "I haven't seen Mrs. for some days, and I said that I would find a time to visit." ”
Mrs. Ren also said: "Mrs. Tao and I thought to go to one place, but I haven't had time for the past few days, and I finally got free today, and I didn't say anything in advance and came." ”
The eldest lady smiled and said: "When do you want to come, come here, where is the need to report, in the future, we will have time to go back to Fengtianfu together, there is a companion on the road and it is not lonely," said and sighed abruptly, "I don't know what Fengtian looks like now." ”
Speaking of her hometown, Mrs. Ren was also emotionally infected, "Yes, the last time I went back was a few years ago. ”
The eldest lady seemed to suddenly think of something, "It's a coincidence, my nephew asked someone to bring me a jar of Korean kimchi some time ago, and I will bring some to my wife when she leaves." ”
Mrs. Ren smiled politely, "That's embarrassing." But his eyes crooked with a smile.
……
Outside the door, Yaqin took the woman to the garden and was about to return to the eldest lady's house, when she heard the maid in the courtyard say, "There is a guest at home, and he is talking with his wife in the house, you can wait for a while." ”
Yaqin's face gradually relaxed, and she led the woman to sit beside the courtyard.
After a while, he deliberately pretended to be busy, leaving the woman to sit alone.
The window in the big lady's house was open, and you could hear the voices talking inside when you walked quietly.
Yaqin hid in the corner again, watched the woman look left and right, and then cautiously walked under the window.
……
After drinking another cup of tea, Mrs. Ren changed her words, "There is one more serious matter today, I just hope that Mrs. will let me do it smoothly." ”
The eldest lady didn't know what to do, put down the tea in her hand and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Mrs. Ren laughed, "But it's a good thing." Do you know Mrs. Xue of An Guogong? ”
The eldest lady said: "Naturally, I know, I also went to the Hou Mansion as a guest a few days ago." ”
Mrs. Ren smiled slightly, "I think that's how I set my fate, today I was entrusted by Mrs. Xue to tell Wu Muhou that I was here, and the Xue family fell in love with the daughter of your house." ”
Although the window paper was not uncovered before, this kind of thing is generally a tacit understanding between the two families, and it will not be too abrupt to ask someone to say that they are close. The man had to ask someone to ask someone to talk about the item, and the woman still had to pretend to know nothing about it, and only after thinking twice did she agree.
Mrs. Ren said for a while, and the eldest lady's face became softer and softer, and gradually a smile appeared from the corner of her eyes.
It's just that Mrs. Ren's next words made the eldest lady a little confused.
Mrs. Ren said: "I heard that the eighth lady in your house has a good background and is well-read, and she is a rare famous lady. ”
The eldest lady couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, where did this come from? How can it be said that Rong Hua is from a good background, what does it mean? Rong Hua is a concubine, where does "origin" start?
Seeing that the eldest lady was silent, Mrs. Ren smiled again: "Mrs. Tao thinks it is appropriate, so she will write Miss Ba's birthday to me." ”
Without waiting for Mrs. Ren to finish speaking, the eldest lady was puzzled: "Eighth Miss? ”
Mrs. Ren smiled: "Mrs. Xue asked me to mention the eighth lady in the house." ”
Mrs. Ren's words were like a thunderbolt, and they exploded on the top of Mrs. Ren's head with a "boom", and Mrs. Ren suddenly felt that her blood had receded, leaving only the softness and coldness of her whole body, her heart was pounding in her chest, and her face twitched a few times in front of Mrs. Ren.
Mrs. Ren looked at her suspiciously, "What's wrong with Madam?" Isn't it uncomfortable? When Mrs. Xue began to tell her, she was also surprised that she would choose an eighth lady who came out of her concubine and a second lady who came out of the past.
Not to mention the difference between the concubines and the young and the old, it seems that the second lady of the Tao Mansion must have something wrong in some aspects.
The second lady is Mrs. Tao's biological daughter, such a good family affair must be uncomfortable when she sees it fall on the concubine, and Mrs. Ren suddenly felt pity when she thought of this.
Seeing such a look in the eyes of others, and then thinking about Yaohua's flower-like face when she wore new clothes this morning...... The eldest lady was pulled hard as if her heart was being pulled, and it took a long time to barely stop her trembling lips, and she asked cheekily, "How can you talk about the eighth lady, the eighth sister of our family is still young." ”
Mrs. Ren was surprised, "Miss Eight hasn't reached yet?" ”
The eldest lady paused for a moment, and her cheeks twitched twice again, "That's not true. ”
Mrs. Ren smiled, "That's it, it's not small." Then he said, "What does Madame think?" If I can, I'll go back to the Hou Mansion, it's always good to settle down early. ”
The eldest lady had her mouth closed, and her eye sockets were blue.
Mrs. Ren persuaded on the side: "If you want me to say, for people like the Hou Mansion, Mrs. Tao should rest assured." ”
A few years ago, the concubine had an affair with Zhao Xuanhuan, and now there is such a thing, she must not give up like this. She could solve it quietly that time, and she must be able to do it this time.
The eldest lady took a breath, and an incongruous smile floated, her cheeks were still twitching, "Rest assured, it's just that my eighth sister has been sick recently, and when the master comes back tonight, I will discuss with the master." ”
Today, my brother got married, and there are many things, so I won't add it for the time being, but I will add it tomorrow.
Tomorrow's net doesn't know where it is yet.
I hope to go to the Internet café to solve it~
