Chapter 116: The Zhang family came to the door to recognize their relatives
When Jiang Chen and Li Yan discussed the planning of the West Kiln Xiang Army, within the Jiang Mansion!
Liu Yueniang was entertaining Zhang Shangying's wife, Mrs. Xiang, as well as Wang Wenhan's wife, Zhang Yue'e, and Zhang Hongwen's wife, Sun Cuiyun, who were full of resentment.
……
In the morning, Wang Wenhan and Zhang Yue'e had a big fight because of the 'strawberry red collar' incident, and Sun Cuiyun and Zhang Hongwen, who were alarmed, ran to persuade them.
So the two red strawberry collars met very pleasantly!
This made the two of them very weak and panicked, and they cursed and swore to put the blame on Jiang Chen, saying that they were calculated by Jiang Chen after finding someone to get drunk.
Zhang Yue'e and Sun Cuiyun actually believed it, and then the four of them split into two ways!
The man went to the Teaching Workshop Division to find Jiang Chen to settle accounts;
The woman went to the eldest lady to expose Jiang Chen's evil deeds, and persuaded the eldest lady to never recognize such a wilted thing as a relative.
Xiang Da Niang couldn't laugh or cry when she heard it, but she didn't take it seriously at all.
After Zhang Shangying, the representative of the door, 'confirmed' the marriage contract between Liu Yueniang and Jiang Chen as a gesture of goodwill, he first recognized his relatives with Liu Yueniang, and then praised Jiang Chen without words:
"Yueniang, if you marry such a wishful husband, it can be regarded as a bittersweet one, and the good fortune will be rewarded! Now those little ladies outside say that you married an immortal disciple, and they envy you so much that their eyes are red! ”
Immortal disciple?
Just him?
When Liu Yueniang heard this, she couldn't help but have a 'nasty' face full of evil smiles in her heart, and she couldn't help but shake her head with a smile.
Zhang Yue'e was even more unhappy when she heard it, and couldn't help but get angry: "Hmph! What is there to envy! It's just a lucky minister! ”
As she spoke, she looked at the layout and tea sets in the hall, and said with a disgusted expression: "How can you say that it is also an official's house, and there is not even a decent calligraphy, painting and tea set?" It's just vulgar, where is it like an immortal disciple? ”
"That's it! What kind of tea is this? It's so hard to drink! ”
Zhang Yuexin, the fifth sister of the Zhang family, directly slammed the teacup on the table as she spoke.
Immediately, like Zhang Yue'e and Sun Cuiyun, the gifts brought by the Zhang family were placed on the table.
looked at Liu Yueniang with disdain and said: "This is Dongting mountain tea, this catty can cost hundreds of times, Yueniang shouldn't have drunk it, right?" ”
"This set is a famous green glaze carved tea set in Yangzhou, and a set costs 500 yuan! Our family uses this to entertain guests, and I am afraid that you will lose the face of the Zhang family, so I also sent you a set.
You shouldn't have seen Yueniang, right? ”
“……”
Liu Yueniang was speechless!
But that's not all!
"Yueniang, hurry up and let people change the tea set and rebrew the good tea we brought! Otherwise, if you entertain guests like this, others will say that our Zhang family women don't know how to be polite! ”
"Why don't you go in person, this tea set is expensive, and if you break a whole set, it will be ruined, then your family won't be able to take out decent things to entertain guests in the future!"
"That's right! There is also this picture of Li Beizhao's You Chun, which was bought by the fourth uncle for 800 yuan, and now it is cheap for you, hurry up and let people hang it! Your room looks so crude and vulgar that you can't sit down! ”
“……”
Zhang Yue, Zhang Yuexin and Sun Cuiyun chattered endlessly, while contemptuously ridiculing Liu Yueniang, while showing the superiority of the daughters of the family.
Xiang Da Niangzi had a headache when she heard it, but she didn't stop it, first, she wanted to observe Liu Yueniang's heart and character;
The second is to wait for Liu Yueniang to be deflated at the critical moment before making a move, so as to get Liu Yueniang's full gratitude.
Liu Yueniang was selling skin in her heart, with a smile on her face, and with her signature smile to deal with Jiang Chen, she was going to make tea in person.
This made Xiang'er and Cui Niannu, who were waiting on the side, feel uncomfortable in their hearts.
was secretly aggrieved, Aunt Liu led Sister-in-law Pan, Sister-in-law Pan and the wives of several wealthy businessmen to come in, and said with a smile:
"Big lady, Mrs. Pan and Mrs. Pan are here, because they all said hello early, I brought them directly!"
Aunt Liu said, rushing to the eldest lady and the girls and smiling apologetically without sincerity.
"It's okay, my aunt will not mind if I am my own family!"
Liu Yueniang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and greeted Mrs. Pan and Mrs. Pan as if she had seen a savior.
Recently, these two sisters-in-law came to visit the door when they were fine, and they have long been familiar with each other.
Therefore, Mrs. Pan did not be polite with Liu Yueniang, and directly introduced the families of Zhu Qu, Cheng Chengjin and Zhou Pingchao to Liu Yueniang, and then smiled:
"Yueniang, your father-in-law not only asked my family officials for the identity of the gentry of my classmates, recommended my third brother to be the inspector of the left capital, but also gave Mrs. Zhu and their sons and nephews a serious background, today we are here to thank you!"
After that, Mrs. Pan directly sent the gift list and asked people to bring the gift up:
The cook Mrs. Wu had stayed in Zhao Tingzhi's prime minister's mansion before, and she was well-informed, and she only looked at the gift list and knew that it was more expensive than the gifts sent by the Zhang family.
So he came forward and sang the salute (epilogue) and said:
"Five catties of top-grade Yangxian tea! It is said that the annual output of this tea is less than 100 catties, and the price is at least 100 times better than that of gold, at least 100 times better than Dongting mountain tea!
Big lady, in the future, our family will still use this to entertain distinguished guests, right? Dongting mountain tea, just drink it yourself, just drink it yourself, and you can't do it to entertain guests! ”
As she spoke, she glanced at Zhang Yue'e happily.
Hmm-
Zhang Yue's face flushed, and she immediately lowered her head in shame.
Liu Yueniang saw a little cool in her heart, and nodded to Mrs. Wu with satisfaction: "Okay!" Listen to Mrs. Wu in this matter! ”
"Thank you, lady!"
Mrs. Wu is happy!
She knew that this time the sycophant was accurate, so she continued to sing: "The Yizhou Palace Kiln purple sand pot comes with two sets of sixteen purple sand tea sets!"
This tea set used to be on the Zhao Xianggong Mansion also had a set, it is a rare good baby, but it is more than ten times more valuable and decent than the green glazed tea set of five hundred times!
Since the guests dislike our tea set is not good, why don't you change it immediately? ”
While speaking, Mrs. Wu looked at Zhang Yuexin with a smile.
Uh-
I want to go home!
Zhang Yuexin has low self-esteem!
Liu Yueniang smiled and nodded again: "Okay!" Xiang'er, you go and make tea again for the guests! ”
"Yes!"
Xiang'er stumbled in front of Zhang Yue'e and Zhang Yuexin with a small face.
directly made Zhang Yue'e and Zhang Yuexin angry.
At this time, Mrs. Wu glanced at the restless Sun Cuiyun, and sang again: "A pair of Zhou Fang's "Tuning the Piano and Sipping Tea" in the Tang Dynasty! Yo, this is incredible, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's worth a lot of money! Hanging in the hall must be more decent than hundreds or thousands of calligraphy and paintings!
Big lady, I think the painting just now should be hung in the side hall, right? ”
