Chapter 626: Confessing to the Wrong Door

"Grandma, ladies and grandmothers, this is our Dongfu wife's daughter, Peng Zhuzhu."

A girl dressed up beautifully told the truth: "The county lord of Qingning switched positions with Peng Pearl back then, in fact, the county lord is the daughter of my wife Luo Chuanbei, and the daughter of the Peng family!" Before the banquet began, the maid roughly repeated what Mrs. Peng had said to He Angelica the night before. The touching story of two cousins exchanging daughters was vividly described.

As soon as the words fell, the dignitaries and nobles present were in an uproar, some exchanged heads and ears, some looked at He Angelica, and some went up to visit, whether the "portraits" of Peng Pearl and Luo Chuanxiong were really born exactly the same. At first glance, it was printed in a mold! These female dependents are the gathering place of gossip in the capital, and as long as they know about anything, the next day, the entire capital will know everything.

The maid mint stood behind He Angelica, looking at her side face worriedly, now Mrs. Su, the mother of the Meng family, was sick in bed, and when Master Meng left yesterday, he explained that He Angelica would temporarily take care of the housework, but today he went to the account room to get the key to the escrow, only to know that the eldest grandmother Shang took the lead and took away the string of keys that symbolized the power of the house, and said that it was with the permission of Mrs. Su......

In other words, now the head of the family and the housekeepers are all grandmothers of the Shang family. Before the summer festival began, there was another scene of Mrs. Peng recognizing her daughter. If the Luo family really succeeds, then the Luo family will ask that He Angelica be rewritten into the Peng family's genealogy! The Peng family is also within the "nine clans" of the Luo family's rebellion, and even Meng Xuan, the son-in-law of the Peng family, will be implicated. At that time, in order to keep his son, the Marquis of Baoding will either have to rescue the Luo family and wash away the entire Luo family's treason, or he will have to abandon his seventh daughter-in-law to protect his son.

"There is such a thing!" Shang's face was full of surprise, as if he had heard of it for the first time. In fact, long before the banquet, He Angelica asked Hawthorn to go back to the eldest grandmother and briefly talk about the matter.

It was hard for Shang to continue to be "surprised" for an hour, only to see her wearing a phoenix-tailed robe, sitting on the first chair under the main seat, and speaking to maintain order on the scene: "Hehe, what are you all doing standing?" How sore the legs are! Although there was a little episode temporarily, it was not a big deal, everyone sat down, drank tea and ate snacks, and slowly said that it was not better? ”

This is said unhurriedly, and it is also very reasonable, the ladies are thinking, who wants to recognize their daughters, what is their business, how cheap it is to sit down and drink tea and watch a good show! So they sat down and quieted the scene a lot.

He Angelica didn't know what Shang had in mind, but he had to praise her, she played a good game. I was surprised, I just got the news; After knowing the news, the Shang family was calm, and the tea party continued, which undoubtedly showed that the Meng family was very confident, even if a daughter-in-law was from a rebellious family, they could calmly raise a glass of tea.

The rebellion of the Luo family is the hottest topic these days. Since the Luo family in Yangzhou has also been implicated, the capital has also been running for them, and the results have not been great. Mainly because the Luo family has a shallow foundation, except for an imperial messenger who "specializes in official medicine", their family is almost the same as a businessman, and there is no one in the upper position, and they want to rehabilitate the big crime of rebellion? Joke!

Now, the Peng family, the in-laws of the Luo family, don't recognize their daughter early and late in the evening, but at this moment, they say that the seventh grandmother of the Meng family is their daughter. Isn't this trying to pull the Meng family into the water and force them to pull the Luo family in order to protect themselves? What a calculation!

The female relatives who came to the summer festival were all related to the Meng family, including the eldest grandmother's maiden business, the second grandmother's Lu family, the fourth grandmother's Liu family, and the old man's aunts' maiden family, as well as the Meng family's family of family friends. The reason why they participate in the festival every year is not because the things at the festival are delicious, but because the eleven tigers of the Meng family are handsome and extraordinary, and they are the little sun in the hearts of every girl in the capital. They came to the Meng family's tea party, and they all came for the Meng family's son. Now, although the sons of the Meng family have not come out, they are still looking forward to the Meng family.

A Miss Liu said: "Although Mrs. Peng said that Grandma Seven is her daughter, after all, she has no nurturing grace, and they are almost like strangers. ”

Miss Liu's sister-in-law, another Miss Liu, saw her sister facing the Meng family, so she was not to be outdone and spoke for the Meng family: "That's right, don't say it's an old thing, one of the parties has passed away, even if it can be proved that it is really her own daughter, is Mrs. Peng what it looks like to be a mother?" I don't want to think about it when there are good things, but now that the catastrophe is coming, the matter of losing your head together, you are dying and pulling a daughter on your back, what a ruthless mother! ”

Mint secretly applauded that Miss Liu, what she said was so right, don't say that this thing is fake, even if it is really a biological mother and daughter, who would admit such a mother and daughter when the disaster came? However, such words can only make irrelevant people feel unfair, if Miss or she says such a thing, it will affect Miss Lady's reputation and make her carry a big hat of "unfilial piety".

He Angelica hooked the corners of his lips and stared at the pretty girl beside Peng Pearl, from beginning to end, all the words were said by her alone. And "Mrs. Peng", who came to visit Meng Mansion last time, is now sitting in an inconspicuous position, quietly bowing her head and drinking tea.

The night before yesterday, He Angelica asked Yitong to check, Mrs. Peng Luo Chuanbei is a woman with outstanding appearance, big eyes, Qiong nose and mouth, and she is definitely not the ordinary-looking woman who came to recognize He Angelica's mother and daughter. Yitong dug deeper, only to find that the woman was just Mrs. Peng's roommate, a little aunt in Peng's house.

He Angelica thought about it for a while, and probably figured out the article here. Privately, they sent an aunt out to recognize their daughter; In front of everyone, it was a maid of Peng Pearl who spoke.

From beginning to end, neither the Peng family nor the Luo family had important figures come out to speak. If it can be done smoothly, then they will all be happy; If something unfortunately goes wrong and it is found out that Luo Chuanbei has nothing to do with He Angelica, then when He Angelica holds on to "Mrs. Peng" and asks her for justice, "Mrs. Peng" may suddenly burst into tears in panic, saying that He Angelica is framing her, because she is not Mrs. Peng at all.

Among the noblewomen in the capital, there are many people who have seen Mrs. Peng, and they can all come out to testify. In this way, things have become confusing, and the scandals of the Luo family and the Peng family have also been diluted, which can save face to a certain extent. This is called "empty gloves white wolf", no profit, buy a daughter home for nothing!

Thinking of this, He Angelica quietly instructed Mama Jing: "You go to the outer courtyard to check, the names registered by the Peng family, except for Peng Zhuzhu, the other names are copied back to me." ”

Unexpectedly, Mama went away in response, He Angelica raised his eyes, and saw Liao Qing'er among the daughters, dressed very "gracefully", the long flowing sea hung down, covering most of her face, and even those who were familiar with her couldn't recognize her at a glance.

Qing'er winked at her playfully, came out of the crowd, ran to Peng Pearl's side, looked at Luo Chuanxiong's portrait, shook her head again and again, and said, "It's not like it, it's not like it, it's not like it!" This kind of recognition is taken out to recognize the mother and daughter, you ancients are too rough, right? Even if you don't have the conditions to test your DNA, you can only be convincing if you prick a bowl of blood and have a drop of blood to recognize your relatives, right? ”

Peng Zhu's pretty maid was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect this kind of situation to happen, she didn't prepare in advance, and Mrs. Peng didn't arrange for her to mention any "blood recognition", and even, Mr. Peng, Mrs. Peng, didn't show up, such a thing will definitely not be done!

The pretty maid said angrily: "This young lady, please don't come to make trouble, you said that my young lady doesn't look like the late aunt's wife?" Then let the ladies and ladies present comment on the judges, and tell us if our ladies look like this painting! ”

Although no one looked at the Peng family, they all felt that the two were very similar, so they said "indeed".

Liao Qing'er laughed and shouted in a loud voice: "Even if this Miss Peng and the person in the painting have a hundred and ten thousand portraits, they don't do anything with Grandma Meng Qi." Because I have seen Grandma Meng Qi's mother-in-law, Aunt Xiong is not the way it is painted at all, the woman in this painting is definitely not Aunt Xiong, but it seems to be drawn by Miss Peng. ”

The pretty girl was stunned, she hadn't seen what Luo Chuanxiong looked like, but this painting was given to her by Mrs. Peng herself, and even this Peng Pearl was a carefully arranged person. If it weren't for the fact that she and Luo Chuanxiong looked exactly the same, how could she be chosen? Seeing the cunning light in Liao Qing'er's eyes flashing away, the pretty girl realized that she was playing herself, she was simply a mess and a troublemaker!

The pretty girl was very angry and reprimanded: "I don't know which lady the girl is, you don't drink tea in your seat, why are you unreasonable and meddle in the big thing of others recognizing your relatives?" Seeing that Liao Qing'er had no intention of retreating, the pretty girl was full of emotion, and said sternly, "It is very painful for people to separate their mother and daughter, if you also have a mother, Miss, please sit back to your mother." Look, although my young lady is demented, she still knows how to cherish her mother's paintings. ”

She clearly insinuated that Liao Qinger had no parental upbringing and no tutor. If Liao Qing'er doesn't want to eat this headline, it's best to sit back in the seat obediently.

At this time, everyone saw that it was really like what the pretty maid said, although the stupid lady had a dumbfounded expression, she couldn't understand Liao Qing'er's words, and she wouldn't open her mouth to refute it, but she always turned around to protect the portrait with great care, and didn't let Liao Qing'er's spit splash on it. A pair of white and tender hands gently caressed the portrait, as if there were thousands of indescribable strong feelings.

Others will naturally interpret this as "thoughts of admiration", and they will also have doubts about Liao Qing'er's words, after all, the dead Luo Chuanxiong, everyone has never seen it, since the Luo family has taken out the portrait, there will probably be no fake. For a while, the ladies whispered, and public opinion gradually spoke to Miss Peng, a stupid young lady who still knows how to miss her mother, and knows how to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, not to mention the smart and beautiful Seventh Grandma?

Qing'er scratched her cheeks, turned her head and asked He Angelica for help: "Seventh grandmother, I said that she is not, you can judge the reason." They copied Miss Peng and made a picture, not to say that this is your mother, but also to find you a 'mother', are those people in the Luo family jumping off the wall in a hurry, they are all crazy? ! ”

He Angelica watched coldly and didn't speak until now, so that everyone almost forgot that she was the main character in this story of finding relatives. At this moment, she walked down the steps, and most of them looked at her for the first time, and this look couldn't help but be fascinated by her demeanor, a little distracted.

She was dressed in a white gauze dress, clear and transparent, with a light purple gauze belt on her shoulders, a gust of wind blowing, giving people an elegant feeling, delicate and delicate figure, just right to wear a plain dress out of the ultimate elegant taste. I believe that there will not be a second person in the world who can wear an undyed white dress with the feeling of being dressed in a gorgeous costume.

The cloud sleeves are folded, the lotus steps are lightly moved, and the skirt does not move at all, what perfect court etiquette! Dozens of discerning ladies looked at each other, and among them, there were many ladies who often entered the palace to meet them. Don't say that the daughters taught in their family don't have such perfect appearance and behavior, even the princess who has raised hundreds of grandmothers in the palace is difficult to pick out a beauty with such a Tsinghua and outstanding temperament.

She walked towards Peng Pearl and the pretty girl step by step, looking at them with eye level, her big eyes flashed as if she could speak, which made people have to love it, her eyebrows were light, her lips were light red, and there was no lack of charm in her beauty.

In a corner in the distance, Duan Xiaolou saw her like this, and the feeling in his heart was indescribable. He has always known that she is a beautiful woman, and he has always regarded her as the most beautiful person in his heart, but he ignores the fact that "she is really beautiful enough to make the sun and the moon lose color". Her grace and beauty, as if it were only fully displayed today, are displayed in the eyes of everyone. No one present, jealous or disdainful, could deny this fact.

As soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was as strong as a cold spring, with a surprisingly strong persuasive power, and many people couldn't help but believe her words immediately.

"I haven't lived with my mother since I was a child, and I deeply understand the pain of my mother's absence, as well as the girl's family's longing for my mother. This Miss Peng is demented, she is really pitiful, and she should not be a person who can lie. Therefore, the woman in the painting should indeed be her person, it may be Luo Chuanxiong, and it may indeed be her own mother. After a change of words, she added, "However, my mother happens to have the same name as her mother, also called Luo Chuanxiong, which is not quite the same as the one in the painting." This Miss Peng may have recognized her relatives and admitted the wrong door. ”
