The next day, the officials and wives of Songzhou all received a post that Mrs. Thorn Shi was going to host a banquet for the Duke of Decheng.
The story of the eighteen niang's sword breaking and rushing to the house has spread, and the people in the land of Bashu are fierce, these ladies listened to it, but they were relieved, and they were afraid that the lady of Shangfeng was a woman from a family who ate people and did not spit out bones, and the city was quite deep.
When they learned that Eighteen Niang was from Fanyang Shen's family, they had been worried for a long time, and they were afraid that if they were not careful, they would be cheated a lot.
After a while, the gate of the courtyard where the big Li Mansion was hung was full of carriages.
As soon as I entered the door, I was taken aback, the door of this courtyard is not big, but there is a lot of good inside, just a huge bluestone slab martial arts field, it is shocking. And when you look up, you can see a small building towering into the sky, and if you can climb to the top, you can take the entire city into your eyes.
Mrs. Zhang Sima had already been here once, and she was secretly surprised in her heart, she came in a hurry that day and didn't take a closer look, Shen Shibanniang actually had the ability to place such a big property under the nose of the Zhang family. It's no wonder that they have silver in their pockets, and they spend a lot of money as soon as they come, making this Songzhou city look new.
Which common people don't praise Li Tingshi now?
As soon as he arrived at the door of the small building, he saw a maid with two flowers standing at the door, behaving respectfully, giving each lady who entered the building a round metal cylinder, and did not know what to do.
Especially Mrs. Liu Changshi, as if she had seen a hot potato, she took it carefully, and suddenly her old face turned red and she was at a loss.
She looked left and right, and found a young and beautiful lady standing behind her, as if she had seen a savior, and hurriedly lowered her voice and asked: "Sister Kong, you are from Chang'an, like Mrs. Thorn Shi, you must know what this thing is, tell me quickly, lest my sister and I make a joke for a while." β
The woman surnamed Kong was stunned for a moment, blushed, and said hesitantly: "It should be a clairvoyant." β
Mrs. Liu Changshi smiled, "You are a pit sister and me, such a long one, like a burning stick, how can it be eyes?" β
Seeing this, another lady on the side sneered: "Mrs. Liu, that is, I also heard her say, people are everyone's daughters, oops, everyone's daughters who were kicked out of the door by their mother's family, where can they look down on us mud legs, let's go, don't spray the spittle stars on her, I don't think you're dirty." β
When the woman surnamed Kong heard this, her eyes turned red, she twisted her head to the side, and sighed. I knew that today, this banquet, she should not have come.
As soon as everyone came upstairs, they saw that Eighteen Niang was standing there with a smile to greet them, only to see that she did not hesitate to take the hands of Mrs. Zhang Sima and Mrs. Liu Changshi, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that you are looking forward to coming, you should have invited your sisters to come over and kiss the incense, but the husband was anxious to ask for a sister, so it was postponed to today." Decheng is my own sister-in-law, so you don't have to be too polite. β
When Li Zifen heard this, she originally wanted to put on a princess shelf, but Cheng Chuying stared at her, shrunk her neck, looked at the ladies and smiled, but the ladies still saluted one by one and sat down again.
Eighteen Niang let Nanzhi serve tea, and when she looked at the ladies present, she was stunned for a moment, "Sister Kong, I didn't expect to meet you here." β
It turned out that the woman surnamed Kong was Kong Meixian, the third mother of the Kong family. At the beginning, she said in public that she pretended to be stupid and wanted to marry Li Qianzhi, which made the Kong family lose a lot of face. Old Man Kong was immediately furious, and after marrying her to the Li family, he didn't let her go back even for three days.
Eighteen Niang only knew that Li Qianzhi was demoted, but she didn't expect that he would be demoted to a county under the rule of Songzhou as a county magistrate.
Kong Meixian's face flushed, and she whispered: "Don't come to the princess unharmed." β
Eighteen Niang blinked, only to see that her eyes were blue, she couldn't even cover the thick foundation, and there were a few barely visible bubbles on her lips. is still wearing a plum hairpin on her head, so you know that she is not doing well.
I can't help but feel that some things are wrong, if Shen Qin married Li Qianzhi at the beginning, is it embarrassing to be here now, it is not Kong Meixian, but Shen Qin.
"It's great to have you here, let's show you, how do I make this clairvoyance, standing on this small building, with clairvoyance, I can clearly see the antelope raised by the Tubo people."
Mrs. Zhang Sima also had one at home, and she was not as curious as the others, so she sat in the room and drank tea with the eighteen mothers, while the others, under the guidance of the maids, climbed high and looked into the distance.
Eighteen Niang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Sister Zhang, Eighteen Niang can pinch and calculate, Chang'an people call Shen Banxian, as soon as I look at your face, I know what you want most, do you believe it or not?" β
Mrs. Zhang pretended to be angry, glared at Eighteen Niang, and said with a smile: "What about taking my sister?" You Fan Yang Shen is a scholarly family, when did you still grab the job of the female crown? Who in this Songzhou city doesn't know, I always want to leave a note for the Zhang family in my dreams, and I still need you to forget it? β
Eighteen Niang blinked, "Then I can calculate that you are destined to meet a nobleman, ask for benevolence and benevolence, do you believe it or not?" β
Mrs. Zhang stood up suddenly, "Do you know such a master? If you ask me to be benevolent, then I will let you ask for kindness and be benevolent. β
Eighteen Niang clapped her high-fives, "Sister Zhang is really a cheerful person." In that case, I won't hide it, do you know the **county lord? She is the first gynecological saint in Chang'an City. Count the days, and now she should be my stepmother. β
Mrs. Zhang was overjoyed, "I know, of course I know, ** the county lord is nicknamed Guanyin." My Zhang family sent someone to send 10,000 taels of gold to get a post, but I can't even enter the door, if my sister can help me introduce, you are the great benefactor of my Zhang and Zhao families. β
Eighteen Niang looked left and right, "Why do you need to be introduced." You also know that I have only been married to the prince not long ago, and the water in this Zhenping Wangfu is deep, and the family hopes that I will stabilize my position as soon as possible, so before I got married, the ** county lord gave me a pill I am not in a hurry, but my sister is in a hurry, and today I will give my sister. β
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her mouth squirmed for a long time, and she cried bitterly, "I've been begging for many years, and I'm not afraid of your jokes, the little goblins in the house are lifted in one after another, if they are allowed to give birth to one, there will be no place for me in this mansion." Sister this medicine will not ask you for nothing, if it is effective, from now on, in this Songzhou City, if anyone is embarrassed by you, it will be difficult for me and Zhang Zhao! Even if it doesn't work, it's my life, the medicine is not for nothing, I'm willing to withdraw the money."
Eighteen Niang stopped her and blinked, "Sister also saw it, my husband is a big spend, no matter how much I dowry, I can't build a city." It's my sister for a while, and please help me. β
When Mrs. Zhang heard that Eighteen Niang had a purpose, she was even more happy in her heart. I'm not afraid that you have something to ask for, I'm afraid that you have nothing to offer! If you ask for something, it proves that this medicine is really useful!
