Chapter Forty-Eight: The Aftermath (Part II)

The last fold is "Reunion".

Cai Bo and Zhao Wu Niang met, Zhao Wu Niang told Cai Bo about the family, Cai Bo was extremely sad, and immediately resigned from the official form, asking Zhao Wu Niang and Niu to return to their hometown to guard filial piety. When the emperor and all the ministers heard this, they all praised Zhao Wuniang as "virtuous and pure filial piety", and wanted to show the Cai family.

As soon as the emperor appeared, Shi Niang couldn't help but widen her eyes - she found that there was a minister standing next to the emperor who echoed the voice, wearing a python robe, with a painted face, a tall figure, and generous manners, more imposing than the emperor next to her.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but laugh.

It seems that this minister is the fifth master of the Xu family who made a cameo. It's a pity that Mrs. Tai is not here at this time......

She couldn't help but watch Xu Wuye's performance carefully.

There is only one line, but the expression is very serious......

Eleven Niang looked at the fifth lady.

She was smiling and looking at the stage, her eyes full of joy.

The corners of Eleven Niang's mouth turned slightly.

The fifth lady seems to be very concerned about the affairs of the fifth master......

As she pondered, she saw a woman in a pink gown and a green passion flower silk dress walking in lightly.

Eleven Niang looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be Qiao Lianfang, the sixth lady of the Qiao family.

She looked dazed, forced a smile and said a few words to Mrs. Qiao, and sat down on the brocade behind Mrs. Qiao. Mrs. Qiao turned her head to say something to her, and she was in a trance, and only after a while did she answer, in exchange for Mrs. Qiao frowning frequently.

Eleven Niang's heart was completely settled at this time.

When one of the parties is not present, things are easy to do - after all, it takes a pair to catch a thief and catch a traitor......

She thought of the white embroidered bamboo plum orchid skirt again.

Why did you wear a carved silk skirt...... First, the skirts are mostly worn by women, and the second is that the carved silk is like a cloud brocade, which is very eye-catching...... Since this is already the case, why don't you just ask Mrs. Tai to find her a white skirt to wear......

Eleven Niang thought about it, feeling that a gaze fell on her, and she was reluctant to leave for a long time.

She glanced at her by feeling and found that Qiao Lianfang was staring at her expressionlessly.

Eleven Niang smiled bitterly.

The most unbearable image has been seen, even the most generous-minded person will have a pimple!

She could only pretend not to know, and looked like she was listening to the play carefully.

I don't know how long it took for the gaze that was glued to her to disappear.

Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief, and saw Miss Lin and Miss Tang walking in side by side with a smile. Wu Niang followed behind, her face was not very good.

Seeing Qiao Lianfang, several people were stunned.

Qiao Lianfang also saw the three of them, and nodded at them with a somewhat unnatural smile.

The three of them also greeted Qiao Lian's jaw. But after saying hello, Miss Tang looked at Qiao Lianfang and whispered a few words to Miss Lin, Miss Lin listened and glanced at Qiao Lianfang with a smile, making people feel that the two seemed to be talking about Qiao Lianfang in private.

Qiao Lianfang's face immediately swollen red.

Then Miss Tang didn't know what to say to Miss Lin, and then covered her mouth and laughed, and Miss Lin glanced at Miss Tang with a coquettish expression.

Qiao Lianfang's face was pale, as uneasy as sitting on pins and needles.

The two of them no longer looked at her, and each returned to their respective elders, and the elders of each family also asked about the juniors in low voices.

Wu Niang also returned to the eldest lady's side. The eldest lady asked her with a smile, "Have you seen the second lady?" Why did you come back at this time and not stay there for a while? ”

Wu Niang said respectfully: "I saw the second lady." The second lady also left us to drink Qingquan Baishi tea. Later, Mrs. Du's mother came to invite her, saying that the play was about to disperse, and we would come back. ”

Qingquan white stone tea? What kind of tea is it?

Eleven Niang felt strange in her heart, but the eldest lady smiled and nodded, as if she was very satisfied with Wu Niang's answer. Then he smiled: "Sit down and rest!" The play is indeed about to end. I don't know if I'm not used to it, but I don't think it's very interesting to sit there for a long time and not do anything. ”

"My mother is used to working at home, and it is inevitable that she will not get used to it." Wu Niang smiled, "It's good if it's been a long time!" ”

The eldest lady smiled, turned her face sideways to listen to the play, and Wu Niang obediently sat down next to Eleven Niang.

As soon as she sat down, the two young ladies of the Gan family and Shi Niang came back.

Shi Niang held the arm of Gan Lanting, the seventh lady of the Gan family, and the two laughed and talked happily. However, the third lady of the Gan family walked behind the two of them with a helpless face, and the two maids who followed each held a handful of wild flowers and weeds.

When the three of them saw Qiao Lianfang, their expressions were very calm, and they did not show surprised expressions like Miss Lin, Miss Tang and Wu Niang. But they swaggered in and caught the attention of the room.

Mrs. Huang even smiled and said, "Sit down, it's blocking us from watching the show." ”

The third lady of the Gan family blushed slightly and muttered a "yes", but the seventh miss of the Gan family grinned, lost Shi Niang and ran to the fifth lady, bowed her head and talked to the fifth lady with a smile. Shi Niang bent her knees and saluted Mrs. Huang, and stepped forward to salute Mrs. Huang with a smile.

The eldest lady smiled and nodded at her gently, and she sat down beside her with a smile.

The third lady of the Gan family also walked over, bent her knees and saluted Mrs. Gan: "Mother! ”

Mother?

Eleven Niang was very surprised.

Could it be that the third lady of the Gan family is a concubine?

I thought of Mrs. Gan's young face again...... Or, Lady Gan is a step-room?

"But what's the trouble?" Mrs. Gan smiled kindly.

"How so?" The third lady of the Gan family said angrily, "Even if we don't know anything anymore, it is impossible for us to make any rude acts in the Xu family." "The attitude is not very respectful.

Mrs. Gan didn't care, and smiled slightly: "Sit down and have a cup of tea - look at you, your face is sweating!" ”

The third lady of the Gan family nodded indifferently and sat down, naturally a maid stepped forward to pour half-warm tea, and a maid fanned her with her sleeves.

She smiled and greeted Eleven Niang: "Is the play good-looking?" ”

Eleven Niang nodded: "Sing very well." ”

"It's all Lanting's girl, otherwise, I can take a good look." She complained, but she was not angry, "Do you listen to dramas at home on weekdays? What kind of drama do you like to listen to? ”

"I don't listen to dramas at home on weekdays." Eleven Niang smiled, "This is the first time!" ”

Her eyes widened, and then she nodded understandingly, "Yes." There's nothing fun in your country either. "There's no arrogance, there's no condescension, it's purely narrating one thing. It's not disgusting, but I think she's a little naΓ―ve who doesn't know the world!

The corners of Eleven Niang's mouth are slightly upturned.

"What did the third sister say?" Miss Gan Jiaqi suddenly appeared behind the third lady, "One of the three major opera troupes in Yanjing, the 'Incense Society' is singing Yu Hang's dialect. Sister Luo's hometown is in Yuhang. ”

The third lady of the Gan family was slightly stunned, and she was a little unhappy when she looked at Shi Niang's gaze, as if she had been deceived.

Eleven Niang was a little crying and laughing.

I can't get to know these little girls in general.

She had no choice but to explain: "I used to follow my father in Fujian, but after my grandfather died, I went home to keep filial piety, and I didn't listen to the play. ”

The third lady of the Gan family turned slightly pale and nodded.

Miss Gan Jiaqi pursed her lips and laughed, and then took Eleven Niang's hand: "Sister, don't blame, my third sister has always spoken straightforwardly." ”

It's not a big deal, people even came to apologize, how could Eleven Niang not accept the kindness of others.

Her eyes widened, and her expression was a little narrow: "What the third sister of the Gan family said is right!" We don't have much fun there...... Why did the seventh sister of the Gan family come to say, 'don't blame'! ”

Miss Gan Jiaqi laughed and said, "You are such an interesting person. ”

Eleven Niang also laughed.

Madam Huang turned her head: "Lan Ting, you really can't calm down for a moment." Sit me down. I couldn't even hear what was being sung on stage. ”

The seventh lady of the Gan family stuck out her tongue at Eleven Niang and sat next to her, but she still couldn't help biting her ears with Eleven Niang: "Lianfang went to find the fourth lady to borrow a skirt?" ”

Eleven Niang's heart moved, but her face remained silent: "How do you know?" ”

Miss Gan Jiaqi winked at her: "She originally said that she would go to see the second lady with Mingyuan, but halfway through she said that she would fly a kite with us." Originally, the wind on the road was quite strong, and it was a good place to fly kites. As a result, she met a little maid who said that the scenery over there in Chunyan Pavilion was good, but she had to go to Chunyan Pavilion to fly kites. Just go. Disaster fell from the sky - she stood there by the pavilion and looked into the distance, but was hit by the head of the head who went to the Chunyan Pavilion to welcome the spring flowers, and her skirt was torn, so she had to come back first...... But she didn't expect that she would borrow a skirt from the fourth lady. ”

Eleven Niang only felt that her heart was beating hard.

From the Chunyan Pavilion, you can see a half-moon-shaped small lake, and there is a water pavilion by the lake...... Wu Niang also once exchanged words with her and asked if it was Hou Ye's study "Half Moon Pan"!

She looked at Miss Gan Jiaqi.

Miss Gan Jiaqi was full of smiles, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

Like an initiation, Eleven Niang suddenly understood.

It turns out that the seventh lady of the Gan family has a deep meaning in every sentence.

She simply played Tai Chi with Miss Gan Family Seven: "Hey, isn't the third lady here?" Why do you have to borrow a skirt from the eldest sister? ”

Miss Gan's eyes lit up, and her smile became even brighter: "Sister Lobby walked halfway and was called by someone from the kitchen. Say that the anchovy ordered by Mrs. Tai herself is missing, so let the lobby sister go and take a look. Therefore, the lobby sister was called away before she stepped into the garden gate. Otherwise, how could Lianfang change his mind temporarily? She looked at Eleven Niang and said pointedly.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

One accident after another, it became an inevitability.

But I don't know who the cicada is? Who is that praying mantis? Who is the yellow finch again?

The light in the sky had gradually faded, and the mother-in-law of Xu Fu tiptoed through the eaves of Dianchun Hall, and the red lanterns were lit one by one.

The gongs and drums next to the stage are still sonorous, but the people on the stage have changed from impassioned to high-pitched and tactful......

The praise of the ladies came to his ears.

"Wu Niang is blessed to be Mrs. Zhuangyuanlang!"

"Niu's virtuous and magnanimous!"

Eleven Niang had a moment of trance.

It turned out that Zhao Wuniang ate bran and swallowed vegetables, and the hemp skirt was covered with soil, and what she got was just such an ending!

Don't wait, it's a little late! Hee-hee......
