Chapter 50: Problems from the Beginning

Geng Wen and Ruan were both there, and the Zeng family sent her bride mother and her nurse Li's mother.

As soon as Mother Li saw Geng Xingshuang, she smiled and blessed her, Geng Xingshuang avoided it slightly, and said with a smile: "Mother Li is polite, please take a seat."

She had been arranged by Nguyen to sit on a stool at the bottom of the head.

"Mom came over today, did Sister Zeng have something to bring to me?"

Geng Xingshuang got straight to the point, and looked at his mother Ruan again, wondering if Mother Li had already told Ruan.

"Mother Li just came for a while, and you came back."

Ruan Shi saw what his daughter meant and smiled.

That is, nothing has been said yet.

"Second wife, Miss Frost, our grandmother ordered the slave maid to come today, one is to convey her apology, yesterday Miss Frost was frightened in our house, she didn't get the news in time, and she couldn't go to visit the girl immediately, and I ask the girl to forgive me."

Geng Xingshuang shook his head, "Yesterday the incident happened suddenly, and I was in a hurry, and it has nothing to do with Sister Zeng. ”

The smile on Li's mother's face deepened slightly.

"It's good that Miss Frost isn't to blame, our grandmother has been blaming herself since she learned yesterday that Miss Frost and Miss Chen almost fell into the pond below Linshui Xuan.

Last night, I also said that the second master was going to let the slave come over early this morning, but the second master said to wait, some things still have to be confirmed, since I want to see the girl, how can I say something useful, so it was not until this time that the slave and the maid came, and I hope that the second wife and the frost girl Mingjian, the slave and the maid are not here to mix lunch. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere became serious because of her words, Li's mother made a harmless joke at the right time.

"Mom can't eat here for lunch, I've already told the curtain to go to the kitchen."

Although Li's mother is a subordinate, she is not only Zeng Hui's nurse, but also she specially ordered to deliver the news, and it is too shabby to entertain her with the meals of the people in the Bofu, so when she learned from the concierge that Yang Er's grandmother sent someone over, Geng Xingshuang asked the painting curtain to go to the kitchen to add vegetables.

After a while, I can let Xiao's mother accompany her mother.

"Then the slave will thank the second wife and the frost girl."

Mother Li was not hypocritical, accepted the invitation, and then looked upright, and said: "As soon as the girl left yesterday, the second master began to let people check, first of all, this flower viewing banquet, it is not that the house has not held a flower viewing banquet before, but most of them are the ladies and grandmothers of each family with the girls and ladies to come to the door, this kind of invitation to the girls in the name of several girls, most of them used to be the birthday of which girl, it will be so."

In addition, although there were male guests in the outer courtyard and female guests in the inner courtyard, when they were invited together, it was when there were happy events in the family, such as several masters marrying wives, and then when our eldest lady was one month old. ”

Mother Li said, glanced at Ruan and Geng Xingshuang, Ruan's expression had changed, after all, the matter of inviting guests to enjoy flowers was the Yang family's business, Ruan didn't think about it deeply, but now it seems that this matter has been problematic from the very beginning.

If there is a problem from the bottom, whose problem is it?

Old Madam Yang? is still the eldest wife of the Yang family, the Chu family, and the eldest Yang master Yang Shaoshan, who manages the affairs of the Yang family.

There is still an uncle who has achieved the three-grade official, and the third Mrs. Yang who is not bad for money, Deng Shi, and Yang Shaohui, the third master of Yang who has been the head of the Wupin Ministry of Industry as a lifter because of the grace of the Yue family.

Geng Xingshuang looked calm and motioned for Li's mother to continue.

Mother Li said in her heart, "This frost girl is really like what grandma said, smart and generous, and she can calm down." ”

"This banquet was proposed three days ago, when the eldest lady asked the old lady to say goodbye, our grandmother was also there, the eldest lady said that she felt that several girls were not young, and in the past two years, they have successively learned some skills as the head of the family, but they have always been behind the elders, this time I will post to the girls in other houses in the name of the girls, and let the girls in the house exercise, to see if they can successfully complete a flower appreciation banquet without the help of the elders."

"Since it is for the girls to organize a flower-viewing banquet, why do you still invite male guests in the outer courtyard......"

Ruan Shi frowned and asked, she didn't finish asking, but the meaning was already self-evident.

"The reason why I invited the male guests here is because the fourth master came back from Licai Academy, and he said that he was taken care of by his classmates in the academy, so he took this opportunity to invite them to come to the mansion as guests."

Mother Li looked a little disdainful.

"Was yesterday the day of the retreat of Licai Academy?"

Geng Xingshuang knew that Yang Siye was studying outside, but he didn't know that the place where he studied was Licai Academy.

Licai Academy is not so easy to enter, not only has a lot of constraints, but also needs a certain amount of talent, and can only be admitted through the examination and teaching of the gentlemen of the college.

Unless you are already a talent like Geng Shulou, you can go directly to the talent class of Licai Academy without taking the exam.

According to Geng Shulou, they are resting on the first day of January, and according to Geng Shulou's last return home, it has not been a month.

Why is this Licai Academy on vacation again?

The corners of Li's mother's mouth twitched slightly, and she returned to normal in an instant.

"The fourth master only entered the academy last winter, he didn't want to enter before, he couldn't enter, the reason why he was able to enter the academy last winter was because the Licai Academy didn't know whether it was a lack of money or a lack of students, and opened another class.

Although the exam also needs to be examined, but I heard that the exam questions are much simpler than the previous ones, the fourth master went, and then he passed the exam, how simple the exam questions are, how expensive the bundle is, that Licai Academy since last year, only the Xiucai class is a month off, the rest are ten days off, ordinary classes are one day off, like the fourth master and them, two to three days each time, said to let the students have a process of adaptation, this time is the three days off. ”

What Li's mother said was not inquired about by Yang Tingbi, but what she already knew.

Geng Xingshuang nodded, and that made sense.

"The old lady has always been lenient to the fourth master, probably thinking that he will ...... in the future So when the fourth master mentioned it, she agreed without thinking about it, and the eldest wife and the third wife also agreed, only the third girl seemed to be a little unhappy, but the elders agreed, and she had to obey. ”

For Yang Fu's attitude, Geng Xingshuang is not surprised, the second master and the second wife of the Yang family are not in the house all the year round, and the third room is not only an official, but also has the third wife's expensive dowry and the uncle of a third-grade member as the backing.

Only Yang Fu is an exception to Dafang, she was born proud, and she has always felt that it is good to only do what she should do, with the original family background of the Yang family, and the position of Dafang's natural heir, she only needs to keep her heart.

Therefore, Geng Xingshuang admires Yang Fu quite a lot in her heart, but helplessly, Yang Fu's attitude towards her is not the same as herself, and the two have always respected each other.

"The third girl is not happy, the second girl, the fourth girl, and the fifth girl have no opinion, and the matter is settled."

Mother Li continued: "The old lady said that since the fourth master has invited guests, the uncle, the second master, the third master, and the fifth master can also invite friends or colleagues or classmates to come as guests that day.

The second master didn't think about it so much, but since everyone had invited him, he also invited a few colleagues who were free to come over. ”
