024 Banquet in the second room
Only then did the old ancestor say: "Isn't it because Yun Qing was lifted by someone, so Hou Ye felt uncomfortable?" ”
The more she said, the more she felt that it was because of this incident, "Speaking of which, this matter also has something to do with Yun Yao, Yun Yao is bent on wanting Hou Ye to take the path of the imperial examination, that is, I often hear Yun Yao chanting in front of him, Hou Ye is perfunctory every time, this Yun Qing is a few months younger than Hou Ye, and now Yun Qing has been lifted, Yun Yao is naturally anxious when she sees it, Hou Ye is very angry, maybe he is uncomfortable because of this matter......"
"Really? If that's the case, it's not a serious matter, and in a few days, Lord Hou and Mrs. will definitely be reconciled again! Xie Chengnian smiled on her face, but she didn't believe in such a statement very much in her heart, because no matter how she looked at it, she felt that Shen Yibei was not such a motivated person.
The old ancestor also laughed, "It's like this between young couples, and you can understand it after you get married......"
If there was a fight at the head of the bed and the end of the bed, she was not embarrassed to say it in front of Xie Chengnian.
It's not rough!
The old ancestor continued: "It stands to reason that Master Hou is uncomfortable because of this matter, I shouldn't have gone over, but I have already promised the second room, if Ming'er doesn't go over, then it will be a little unspeakable...... You want Yun Yao to prepare for it, don't show her childishness, now she is the housemother of our Changning Hou Mansion, and she should go out and show her face more, let alone affect her mood because of these things, if this little thing makes her upset, how can she carry the entire Changning Hou Mansion in the future? ”
"Yes, the slave will convey the words of the ancestor to the lady!" Xie Chengnian behaved very well.
When the old ancestor saw it, he said happily: "When you followed Yun Yao over a few days ago, your sister was still in front of me to praise you for being sensible, I didn't believe it at the time, but now it's really the case at first sight, since that's the case, Ming'er, you will follow Yun Yao to the second room, and you should see the world!" ”
Generally speaking, only the big girl next to the master can follow the master out to meet guests, the ancestor is giving her face!
Xie Chengnian said with a smile: "Thank you for the kindness of the ancestors, the slave will definitely not disgrace you!" ”
She is really happy, she has been in this dynasty for so long, she can finally go out and have a look!
After waiting for her to go down and tell Song Yunyao what the ancestor said today, Song Yunyao could only smile bitterly and agree, originally she planned to go to the second room tomorrow, but the ancestor said so, but she had to go.
On the second day, Xie Chengnian only wore a moon-white skirt, a lake-blue gown, and no powder on his face, looking docile and docile.
Song Yunyao, who has always been in a bad mood, saw it, and her face looked better, Xie Chengnian was already good-looking, even if she didn't use powder, she could be crushed to death, but fortunately, she was dressed up by Zhihua today, which covered the haggard on her face.
Xie Chengnian followed her, went out of the gate, and got into the carriage behind her.
The carriage of the old ancestor at the front, the second carriage of the old lady, the third carriage of Song Yunyao, as for Shen Yibei...... He has not come back to this day, because the big maid who accompanied him all followed her master in a carriage, so that she could serve tea and water in the car.
As a second-class maid, Xie Chengnian bargained, and now she is in a carriage alone!
The carriage walked out of the alley leisurely, and it didn't take long to cross the street, after all, the terrain of this Changning Hou Mansion is excellent!
Xie Chengnian heard the noisy voice in his ears, and couldn't help but open the curtain and secretly look outside.
This situation is similar to that staged on TV, but it is even more amazing to empathize, selling rock sugar gourds, selling steamed buns, and juggling...... The streets are bustling with people!
Xie Chengnian couldn't hide the excitement on his face, it would be great if he could come out and take a walk from time to time!
Just after walking a street, the carriage listened slowly!
Xie Chengnian then remembered that this second room was only separated by a wall from the Changning Hou Mansion, and the boundary of the capital was every inch of land, not to mention this prosperous territory, and the second master spent a lot of money to buy such a house......
As she thought, she jumped out of the carriage.
Xie Chengnian was in front of the third carriage and helped Song Yunyao get out of the carriage.
The old ancestor just walked a few steps, and saw a middle-aged woman come out, the woman was wearing a water red satin gold jacket, the appearance is not outstanding, the ridiculous face is happy, looking at it makes people feel happy, and now it is even louder: "Ancestor, you can be regarded as coming, the daughter-in-law has been looking forward to you!" ”
Her voice was so loud that she was afraid that others wouldn't hear her!
The old ancestor bowed slightly, let her support him, and walked inside, "Today is a good day, I'm afraid there are a lot of guests, how can you leave a room of guests out to pick me up?" It's a family, why be so formal"
I have to say that the old ancestor is really a human spirit, she knows what the second old lady wants to hear, and now she says something in front of everyone!
The second old lady was very happy when she heard this, held the hand of the ancestor affectionately, and said with a smile: "There are already a lot of people here, but you are here, why does your daughter-in-law have to come out to pick you up?" Now that the uncle of the Song family has come, and the sixth master and Gu Shizi have come over, the daughter-in-law has already sent someone to invite the troupe, and has already told the class owner that the pillar must be invited to sing your favorite play to you, and the daughter-in-law still remembers that your favorite thing to listen to is "Mu Guiying is in charge", what you like to listen to, and the daughter-in-law will never dare to forget it......"
The old ancestor frowned slightly, and only said, "Uncle Song? But Yun Yao's brother? ”
The second old lady nodded, and didn't notice anything wrong at all, "Yes, it's Yun Yao's brother!" ”
At this moment, even Song Yunyao's face is not very good-looking, there is no one in the capital who doesn't know that her brother is a gentleman, who flirts with women from good families and raises fans on weekdays...... These bastards have done a lot of things, and only Song Ge Lao can suppress him, but Song Ge Lao is very busy on weekdays, and he can't spare time to discipline this unscrupulous son at all!
Presumably the second old lady wanted to have a relationship with the Song family, and the Song family was unwilling to give him this face at all, so he found the Song family's uncle, whose family banquet guests were willing to invite the Song family's uncle, so as soon as the Song family's uncle received this invitation, he was also very happy, where is the reason not to go to the appointment?
Song Yunyao was very anxious, today's room full of female dependents, his brother may cause something to happen today, "I didn't expect the second aunt to even invite my brother, so did my sister-in-law come?" ”
If the eldest wife of the Song family comes, she can still tell the eldest lady of the Song family to say two words, and tell her to stare at her brother later, the people who came to the second room today are all the wives of the official family, if they collide with anyone, they will not look good on their faces!
The second old lady glanced back at her, and said with a smile: "Your sister-in-law didn't come over, saying yes, the old lady of the Song family went to the Big Buddha Temple, I'm afraid she won't come back in the next few days, your sister-in-law said that the Song family can't do without her, and she has to help take care of things in the Song family!" ”
To add insult to injury!
What other famous hall can this Song family's eldest wife manage in the inner courtyard? I'm afraid that she is afraid that others will not know that she has this ability!
The old ancestor glanced at Song Yunyao deeply, and then looked at the second old lady and said: "There are quite a lot of people invited today, Yun Qing has a future, you also have light on your face, I also have light on my face, I can't write two Shen characters in one stroke, he and Hou Ye are brothers who break bones and tendons, seeing that Yun Qing has a future, I am happier than anyone else." ”
"Although his grandfather is gone, but I also have a few good sisters, I will write a letter out tomorrow and ask if there is a good gentleman, although Yunqing is still young, and it is a matter of time before he becomes a jinshi, but the sooner the better!"
The second elder was happy as if something was there, and only said: "Since this is the case, then thank you old man, in the future, we Yunqing will definitely not forget our ancestors!" ”
In this way, the ancestor heard a lot, and only said: "Okay, okay, don't talk to the family, let's go in, don't make everyone wait!" ”
When waiting for the old ancestor to enter the flower hall, everyone saw that even the old ancestor of the Marquis of Changning Mansion had come, and their faces could not hide their shock!
Immediately, there was a lady and wife who would come forward to invite the ancestor to sit down, you must know that the original Changning Marquis Mansion was a first-class noble home in Beijing, even if it has declined over the years, it is also a first-class noble family, much stronger than their small family!
The ancestors are also willing to give them this face, only to talk to them, and come out as guests, just to make a scene!
After a while, someone proposed to play horse hanging, and the ladies and wives got together, nothing more than to talk about gossip, listen to the play of cards or something, and there was no other pastime!
The old ancestor waved his hand when he heard this, "I'm old, my reaction is slow, and my eyes are not as good as yours, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will play the wrong card, and you still dislike my old wife?" That's it, that's it, Yun Yao, you come to play cards for me, if you win, yours, if you lose, I'm an old woman! ”
Song Yunyao smiled reluctantly and said softly: "Old Ancestor, you also know that I have never been good at this!" ”
The girl from the Song family is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not good at playing cards, if it is changed to weekdays, she may accompany those ladies and wives to play a few rounds, but now she is only worried about what will happen to her brother, where is the heart to play cards?
The old ancestor also knew what she was thinking, and he didn't embarrass her, "Then you will be an old lady!" ”
But Song Yunyao didn't see the shadow of the old lady after looking around, so she only said, "It must be that the old lady went out for a walk." ”
The old ancestor frowned, this lady and his wife are all in the flower hall, how can the old lady still go out for a walk?
What's more, the old lady has been here more than once or twice in this second room, what is there to visit?
