Chapter 57: The Opponent (I)
Chapter 57: The Opponent (I)
Shujiaan. These three words make people have to think about it.
Jia'an, the people who practice in it are all women in the clan, but where is there such a person in the Tao family, there is no such person, and what is the use of Jia'an?
Jinghua was almost bloodless when she heard this, sitting on the side lifeless, and had no thoughts about anything.
After a while, the Tao family prepared some pastries and food, and the eldest lady meant that the children in several rooms did not get together, and they were all the closest brothers and sisters who could not be estranged. Because there were many things to be resolved, the eldest wife and the second wife sat for a while and then went to discuss the matter of worshipping their ancestors the day after tomorrow.
Jinghua felt uncomfortable after sitting for a while, whether it was the maid, the mother-in-law or the ladies in several rooms, it was strange to look at her, but the sixth miss was only aimed at Rong Hua, and the words were not good, not because her biological mother and fourth aunt were pregnant, and she had the support of the old lady behind her.
No matter what Miss Six said, Rong Hua didn't seem to be annoyed or angry, but it made Miss Six bored for a while. Jinghua saw Rong Hua like this, and the knots in her heart were also unraveled. I am upright and have not done anything wrong, and the final result is nothing more than serving those mud tires, who are always better to get along with than people, so that it will be quiet.
Tao Jingjiao and Tao Jinglian in the second room are a little older, talking to the sisters on the side, Yaohua is knowledgeable and reasonable, and they are very talkative, Brother Qiu in the third room also pulls Brother Hong in the big room to have fun on the side, the seventh miss Xiuhua in the second room has lived in the Yaohua house these days, and Yaohua is a little more good, talking and laughing is also around Yaohua, Yanhua is even more polite, no matter who speaks, she has to insert two sentences, the other two young ladies in the second room, Miss Nine Qiao Hua and Miss Eleven Yuehua are naturally inseparable from this circle, For a while, only the tenth miss Jinghua in the third room and the eighth miss Ronghua in the big room were left aside.
The more people talked, the happier they became, and Brother Hong came to Rong Hua's side to get the fruit, and slowly moved it over. Seeing this, Jinxiu hurriedly added a cup of tea to Jinghua, and then stood there talking to Jinghua's personal maid Qian'er.
Brother Hong was free at this time, and said to Rong Hua in a low voice: "Sister, I asked Xia Tao to find you, why didn't you come, are you angry with me?" ”
Rong Hua saw Brother Hong's anxious appearance, and a warmth suddenly appeared in his heart. Many of the things that happened that night were later known by Rong Hua from Xia Tao's mouth.
There were thieves in the house, Brother Hong was worried about her, and she was not hiding in the flower room, so she was going to come out to find her, but it was not easy to say that she was looking for her, just blindly going out, the eldest lady saw it, thinking that Brother Hong was frightened, and hurriedly asked the next person to pull Brother Hong, Brother Hong was willing to give up, and tossed for a while, after all, it was a ten-year-old child, how could it compare to the strength of several adults.
After his father returned home, he knew about it, and called Brother Hong to scold, and asked Brother Hong to take care of him and study, so that he could grow up and grow his skills, so as not to go out and be embarrassed in the future.
"Father is angry, don't go against him, otherwise you will suffer in vain. That's what I mean when I don't go to see you. ”
Brother Hong knew that Rong Hua really cared about him, so he let go of the stone in his heart.
Tao Jingjiao talked about Brother Hong's left-wing sect again, and looked around, but the main owner was on Miss Eight's side, Brother Hong bowed his head and talked to Miss Eight, and he didn't know what he said, both of them had smiles on their faces, and it seemed that the atmosphere was very good. Tao Jingjiao was a little surprised, Miss Eight was just a concubine born and raised in other countries, how could Brother Hong be willing to be close to her.
Tao Jingjiao was about to call Brother Hong over to speak, but he heard the next person say: "There are guests at home, and the eldest master asked the young masters to go to the front." ”
Tao Jingjiao stood up and asked again, "Who is here?" ”
The man said: "It's Wu Muhou." ”
Everyone present was surprised, and the ladies were thoughtful. Tao Jingjiao, Tao Jinglian, Brother Hong, and Brother Qiu were all busy asking the maid to help sort out the clothes and hurry to the front.
As soon as a few people left, the feast naturally dispersed.
Rong Hua raised her head inadvertently, only to find that Yaohua was staring at her thoughtfully. Hara vowed to be a good sister for life. She shared all her thoughts with Yaohua, and now that she was looking at each other from afar, she really saw her true nature.
The seventh lady Xiuhua in the second room talked to Yaohua, and Yaohua naturally looked away.
After hearing Wu Muhou, several young ladies were even more like Yaohua stars holding the moon, Yaohua just smiled, not arrogant or impatient, no different from usual.
Several young ladies were about to leave the table, and Chen's mother hurried over, and when she saw that the young ladies were there, she breathed a sigh of relief, "The young ladies should also pack up, the eldest lady said, and she also wants the young lady to come over to see her." ”
When Mother Chen said this, almost everyone's eyes fell on Yaohua at once, and Miss Seven and Miss Nine were even more envious.
Saying that, Mother Chen instructed a few maids again, "Hurry up and serve the young ladies, the distinguished guests will not be sitting in the house for a long time." He personally followed the second miss Yaohua out, and the second miss's maid suddenly became busy.
Everyone in the house was so nervous about Yaohua, and everyone else had the feeling of being ignored, and they were lost, but they were still unwilling.
The second wife, Wang, personally took several young ladies from the second room to clean up and prepare, and Miss Seven, Miss Nine, and Miss Eleven immediately followed happily when they saw their mother coming.
Rong Hua and Jinghua also returned to the house, Jinghua didn't have the heart to dress up, and saw that Rong Hua was also sitting on the side unhurriedly drinking tea, and couldn't help but be secretly anxious, and said to Jinxiu on the side: "Don't hurry up and prepare a dress for your young lady." ”
Rong Hua didn't speak, and Jinxiu didn't know what to do, whether to dress up or not, and which clothes to wear.
Although Wu Muhou is a relative from the third wife Liao's side, he is also a serious foreign man, so let the young lady in the house meet the foreign man...... The protagonist is Yaohua, and they are just foils. No matter how well she dresses up, the eldest lady has to dress up Yaohua carefully, who can cover the past.
The end result of her doing so will only be in exchange for the eldest lady's defensiveness. Rong Hua glanced at Jinxiu, who came back from the eldest lady and didn't have time to talk to her yet. At the banquet just now, Jinxiu and Mu Hibiscus didn't know what to say, and Mu Hibiscus, who loved Zhang Luo on weekdays, didn't come to choose clothes for her enthusiastically.
The appearance of these two girls made her a little more cautious.
After all, it is a distinguished guest who comes to the door, the etiquette must be thorough, and the dress can not be too casual, Rong Hua asked Mu Hibiscus to pick two small and eye-catching gowns, Jinghua chose a Hunan color makeup flower collar gown, Hibiscus took the silver-red twig gown in his hand to Rong Hua, red is always conspicuous and public, her skin is already fair, and she will be more delicate when she wears red. In private, there are often mothers-in-law who say that men like to be delicate, but she doesn't seem to be all like that.
Rong Hua asked Mu Hibiscus to take the green yellow silk jacket and lotus lotus color net face inlaid wide-brimmed gown, and chose a few pieces of jewelry, which looked generous and decent without being noisy, so he took Jinxiu, Mu Hibiscus, and Qian'er to the big lady's house.
Outside the courtyard of the eldest lady, Ronghua, Jinghua, and several young ladies in the second room waited until Yaohua arrived before they entered the house together. As soon as the ladies stepped forward, they chose a seat to sit, and Rong Hua and Jinghua sat down in the farthest place from the main seat. Yanhua arrived a little late, wore a begonia red pomegranate flower gown, and wore a pomegranate red yarn palace flower on his head, and when he entered the house, he couldn't help but lose his temper, so he walked to Miss Nine and stared at Miss Nine.
Miss Nine also glanced at Yanhua angrily, but she was still defeated, stood up and said, "Sister sit here!" ”
Advantech suddenly became proud.
The eldest lady and the second wife, Tao Wang, spoke, and swept to Yanhua, with a displeased look on their faces, but they couldn't care about her at this time.
Rong Hua looked at Yaohua beside the eldest lady, Yaohua really wore a red, pale pink Confucian jacket, and the outside was a peach-colored dark pattern engraved silk gown, combed with a high bun, and the bun was made in a peach heart style, with the same peach-colored brocade ribbon as the gown, it was luxurious and not vulgar, so that people could not take their eyes off it at a glance.
Although Yanhua and Yaohua's clothes collide, Yanhua is not as elegant as Yaohua.
The eldest lady nodded at Chen's mother with satisfaction, the second sister Yaohua will feel that she is a rare beauty with both talent and appearance at a glance, and Hou Ye will be able to fall in love at a glance, and then she will let the Liao family come forward and settle this matter.
Footsteps sounded outside, and the ladies in the room all sat quietly and looked at the door, the little maid lifted the curtain, and Wu Muhou walked in. He wore a blue placket right robe, tied around his waist with a blue satin silk trouser belt with wide brims, and only a piece of mutton fat white jade hung on it, dressed neatly and simply, with solemnity, there was no trace of a smile on his handsome face, especially the eyes were getting darker and darker, bottomless, elusive, and the light in the eyes of people was suddenly strong, which made people suddenly feel a little afraid.
The young lady in the room was suddenly blocked from looking at her, and they all lowered their heads, Rong Hua was just a little distracted, no wonder there would be such a rumor outside about this Marquis of Wu Mu, with deep eyes and thin lips, it was really an angry King Kong, and he couldn't help but compare the ugly King Kong image in the temple with Wu Muhou in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a little smile.
This comparison yielded him.
Everyone woke up and hurriedly saluted, Wu Muhou naturally stopped, Hou Ye came to Tao Mansion to formally thank him, the eldest lady invited Hou Ye to sit on the upper seat, and said a few words, from beginning to end the eldest lady could not hide the excited look on her face, Yaohua sat next to the eldest lady, the eldest lady looked at Yaohua from time to time, as if to attract Wu Muhou's eyes to Yaohua, Yaohua also sat quietly, with a soft smile on her face.
As soon as the tea was served, Wu Muhou got up to say goodbye, and the eldest lady couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but it was not easy to say anything to keep it.
Everyone got up to see each other off again, and it wasn't until Wu Muhou's figure disappeared that the atmosphere in the room softened again. Miss Nine kept patting her chest, and even Yanhua was much quieter.
This Hou Ye is really not an ordinary shocking person, in the face of this full house, those cold eyes have never stayed on anyone, even Yaohua, who is so close to him.
It is no exaggeration to say that as soon as a man appears, he has to spend time pondering.
It's Valentine's Day, how can you be without a man, right!!
