Chapter 8 Marriage and Husbandry? I want to eat fart
Yu Jinxi remembered that the girl of the Zhang family also held a poetry gathering in her previous life, but she didn't get this post, and Gu Qiheng didn't let her make more friends with the officials.
What did Gu Qiheng say at the beginning?
Because he is favored by the king, it is best not to get too close to other courtiers, otherwise the emperor is easy to be suspicious, especially in the back house, he can't make too many friends, in case he is hooked up, it is easy to have an accident.
Yu Jinxi was taught to marry and obey her husband at home, and everything was focused on Gu Qiheng's future, and she had also heard her parents say some officialdom things.
The communication in the back house is especially attentive, a sentence turns eighteen or nineteen turns, if you are not careful, it is easy to be pocketed into the pit, it is difficult to climb out.
In her previous life, Yu Jinxi rarely made official friends in the capital for Gu Qiheng, but if she did it again, she would definitely not take Gu Qiheng as the first thing to do.
didn't let her go, she deviated, saying that she was afraid of ruining his future, in fact, she was letting her draw the ground as a prison.
She rarely appeared in the official family of the capital, no one knew her, and after her death, Gu Qiheng welcomed Liu Ruyan into the door again, and the official family of the capital had no impression of her at all, and it was a sentence when she mentioned it.
In this way, after Liu Ruyan enters the door, it will be smoother to make friends in the capital.
Because there is no comparison, there is naturally no dispute between the superior and the inferior, and no one will embarrass her because she is filling the house.
Gu Qiheng and Liu Rumeng's ability to calculate people is really chilling, and they can't help but admire, even the most minute details make them think about it carefully, from beginning to end, they are just scolding her.
Yu Jinxi looked at Mama Qian on the side and asked, "What did the banquet family say when they sent the post?" ”
Mama Qian said truthfully, "Someone said that it was up to you whether to go or not, and the people next to me didn't say anything." ”
Yu Jinxi took a look at the day, but coincidentally, it was tomorrow.
Under normal circumstances, Miss Zhang has to post at least half a month in advance if she wants to hold a poetry collection, and this post has been pressed for at least ten days in Yanhuai.
Qingti saw that she didn't speak with the post, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, are you going?" ”
Yu Jinxi nodded, "Of course you have to go, you go and prepare a good inkstone, I heard that this girl of the Zhang family is not only good at poetry, but also writes good words, we want to go, we have to do what she likes, right?" ”
Qing Ti nodded, and was about to prepare, when Mama Qian suddenly said, "Miss, this girl from the Zhang family has never been married, right?" ”
Yu Jinxi snorted and raised his eyes to look at her, "What's wrong?" ”
"The girl of the Zhang family has never been married, and the people she invited to the poetry collection must be all young ladies of the right age in the capital, but you are a married woman, this kind of occasion, it is not appropriate for you to go, right?"
Mama Qian's worries are not unreasonable, but Yu Jinxi said, "The Zhang family not only has a poetry collection, but the Zhang family's wife has also feasted many officials, and the poetry collection is just a pretense." ”
Hanlin bachelor Zhang has a total of two sons and a daughter, the eldest son is married, and has a meritorious rebirth, in the court and Zhang Lord together as an official, the second son has been out of the exam, although he has not been in high school, but his knowledge is good, sooner or later he will be promoted, and he is engaged.
Mrs. Zhang feels sorry for her young daughter and has been looking at others for her, but she has never been satisfied.
Miss Zhang held a poetry collection, and she invited the official wife to a banquet, which was actually a two-sided investigation to marry her beloved daughter.
If she remembers correctly, Mrs. Zhang took a fancy to the son of the Tobe squire in this poetry collection, and she would be married soon, but who knew that before the marriage, the person showed a clue and passed on the beginning and end with other women.
didn't wait for Miss Zhang to withdraw from the marriage, the wife of the household servant took the lead and put all the fault on the Zhang girl, and finally made the Zhang family girl infamous.
Yu Jinxi thought carefully about the weight of the Zhang family, and suddenly made a decision in his heart, although the Zhang family was implicated when the third prince was deposed in the previous life, the Zhang family had a competitive eldest son, who rose again when the Zhang family was almost extinct from the capital.
And the Zhang family has a very good reputation, and it is a rare person with a clean official style.
Yu Jinxi's mind turned a thousand times, if she could get rid of Mrs. Zhang's intention of marrying Miss Zhang, and when the son of the household servant revealed himself in the future, she would have a reason to have a relationship with the Zhang family.
If you can get in touch with the Zhang family, it will naturally be much smoother to get to know other officials.
Yu Jinxi was too lazy to take care of the mess at home, and after cleaning up the next day, he went to the banquet.
She was wearing a long skirt of smoke blue, a small gown with soft embroidery of the same color, pulling up the woman's hair bun, and because she had a velvet flower on her head, she only brought a plain hosta and earrings of the same color.
She is married to a wife, although she has never had the same room, in the end it is different from the girl, today is the home of the Zhang family girl, as a guest, she must not steal her limelight, no need for expensive jewelry, it is very convenient.
The Zhang family is extremely lively, as soon as Yu Jinxi appeared, he was welcomed to the middle hall by the people of the Zhang family, Mrs. Zhang was not very fancy, although she was over forty years old, her face was like a silver plate, she was still beautiful, and she smiled very kindly.
After a shallow conversation, Yu Jinxi had a good impression of this Mrs. Zhang.
Subsequently, several ladies arrived one after another, and in the mutual greetings, Yu Jinxi met Mrs. Ding of the household waiter's family, at this time she was not conspicuous in the crowd, no matter what others said, she always looked like she was smiling implicitly, looking very good to get along with.
But Yu Jinxi knew that this Mrs. Ding was very difficult to provoke, and the kindness in front of her was all pretended, once she turned her face, her methods were inferior and shameless.
Her son, Ding Yuyuan, also learned her hypocrisy ten out of ten.
During the conversation, Yu Jinxi observed the words and had noticed Mrs. Zhang's appreciation of Mrs. Ding's words.
Mrs. Zhang picks her children's in-laws, not only a talented son-in-law, but also a mother-in-law who is easy to get along with, these two conditions are indispensable, and this Mrs. Ding obviously understands Mrs. Zhang's preferences, and she is completely prepared today.
Yu Jinxi excused himself to go out halfway, but when he got up, he accidentally bumped into a maid, and the teacup in the maid's hand fell straight out and smashed at Mrs. Zhang's feet.
Mrs. Zhang scolded the maid softly, and Yu Jinxi hurriedly interceded for the maid, only saying that she had inadvertently encountered it.
Mrs. Zhang saw that she was also stained with tea, so she quickly apologized, and then took her to the backyard to change her clothes.
Yu Jinxi changed into clothes of a similar color, and not long after the change, Mrs. Zhang also changed her clothes and came in.
"Mrs. Gu, I'm really embarrassed, my subordinates are clumsy, I will definitely discipline them strictly when I turn around."
Yu Jinxi smiled, with a slight apology on his face, "It's also that I got up too quickly and bumped into your girl, but it's not anyone's fault, I don't know if the girl is hot, I have good scald medicine at home, and I'll send it to her when I turn around." ”
"A girl, how can you bother Mrs. Gu so much?"
"It's my fault, I can't hurt people."
Because of these words, Mrs. Zhang's smile at Yu Jinxi became more sincere, "After changing your clothes, let's go back to the banquet." ”
Yu Jinxi smiled and nodded, and when she talked to Mrs. Zhang on the way back, she talked about the clothes as if she had inadvertently.
Yu Jinxi has a silk village specializing in Dingzhou silk, and said naturally, "Madame likes Yunlong silk, so I will ask my man to send a few brightly colored materials another day." Madame, don't be disgusted. ”
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she refused again and again, "What age am I, and the Yunlong silk is worn by you young people, and it is not in vain to give it to me." ”
Yu Jinxi pretended to be different and said, "How come? Mrs. Ding also likes Yunlong silk, and the descendants of the Ding family often go to buy it, and today Mrs. Ding's blessing, Mrs. Ding and I are also considered to be familiar at first sight, and we have to send a few horses over another day. ”
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and then quickly disappeared.
