Chapter 50: Xi San

The old lady's hand shook, the tea spilled out, and Liu's mother hurriedly took a handkerchief and stepped forward to wipe her.

"What's going on, didn't you say it was just a small feast! Why did you alarm the grandfather of the country?! ”

"The slaves and maids only heard that they are all here to drink tea!" Mother Liu wiped the tea from the old lady's hand neatly, and said, "Old lady, you are the chief of this Hou Mansion, this distinguished guest comes to the door, you have to go over in person, the town is a town!" ”

The old lady didn't know.

But she didn't move.

She didn't grow up in the capital since she was a child, but the old marquis was knighted and the emperor rewarded the marquis before moving over.

When she first came, because she was a new marquis, although the old marquis had just sacrificed his life for the country, his son was still young, and he saw that it was hot, and the officials and relatives of all sizes in the capital came to visit her, and many of them had a good relationship with her.

But later, Marquis Anyuan did nothing in the court, and even wandered the flower building all day long, looking like a swinger, and the reputation and status of Marquis Anyuan's mansion in the capital plummeted, and those people never came again.

Even if I see it occasionally outside, it's just a few pleasantries, and it's rusty inside and out.

After so many years, the old lady really has no friends in this capital, and she rarely even goes out of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

Suddenly let her meet so many high-ranking people, how could she not be apprehensive.

Mother Liu saw the old lady's uneasiness, and hurriedly said: "Old lady, you are the chief of this Hou Mansion, those people dare to be unkind to you when they come to your territory?"

What's more, there is still a lady here, we just showed our faces in the past, and we will be fine! ”

Liu's mother's words seemed to reassure the old lady, she finally nodded, got up and went into the bedroom, and changed her clothes and makeup again.

When she came out again, the old lady had already changed into a long duck-green jacket, with a crimson bronzing horse face underneath, her hair meticulously tied back her head, and a complete set of ruby tiaras on her head.

The crown had been broken, and it had been carefully repaired by skilled craftsmen, and there were no signs of damage to be seen.

After taking a few steps outside, the old lady suddenly stopped: "Where is Yi'er?" ”

There are so many distinguished guests in the house, how can the Marquis of An Yuan not come forward?

Mother Liu's face suddenly showed a little embarrassment: "Master Hou drank with Aunt Mei and a few of them last night, and played for a longer time, I heard that I only stopped in the morning, and I ...... I didn't wake up with a hangover. ”

"A bunch of foxes!" The old lady almost squeezed these words out between her teeth.

At the beginning, I asked Aunt Mei and them to go to An Yuanhou's side, just to lure An Yuanhou away from Aunt Yun and kill Aunt Yun's slut's majesty, but I didn't expect that these few people were also foxes who were not worry-free!

Mother Liu was afraid that the old lady would be angry, so she hurriedly said: "Old lady, it's not early now, let's go quickly!" ”

If you don't go, I'm afraid the banquet will be dispersed!

The old lady glanced at the golden sunset outside, did not dare to delay any longer, and walked towards the garden.

At this time, the Houfu Garden is really lively, young and old men and women gather together, each holding a cup of tea in their hands, and the atmosphere is very relaxed.

In the pavilion, several old ladies and duchess sat together, and Jiang Fuyue sat in the first place and personally made tea for them.

While everyone was chatting, Chen Ge Lao of Wenhua Hall came over with a tea cup: "Mrs. Gu, the old man is also a tea lover, why have you never drunk such tea before?" Where did this tea come from? Do you have a way? ”

Although he was old and gray-haired, his eyes were bright, and he was obviously in good spirits.

Duchess Jinguo also nodded: "Yes, the tea in my house is available all over the world, why haven't I seen anything like this?" Fuyue, I don't care about others, our family has such a good relationship with you, I am also your aunt, I can't hide it from me! ”

As soon as her voice fell, everyone in the pavilion burst out laughing: "If you only have this tea at home, we will go to the door every day!" It just so happened that we were able to wrap the rice with it! ”

"You're beautiful!"

Jiang Fuyue also pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "This tea is the original creation of a friend of mine, she has been doing business in remote places in the early years, these years, her business has become big, she wants to go back to Beijing to try, but she has not been sure of her idea, so she gave me some tea leaves, and asked me to help her try your taste first." ”

"I was going to open a store in the capital!" Sun Jingke's eyes lit up, "Then we will have a good fortune in the future!" ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to open a store in the capital, Chen Ge's eyes lit up, and he left with a tea cup, eager to share the news with his acquaintances.

While she was talking, the old lady came over.

Most of the people present were dressed in civilian clothes, even if they received the post, they were just dressed a little more formally, and only the old lady was dressed up, which was very eye-catching along the way.

Jiang Fuyue saw her as soon as she raised her eyes, got up and saluted, and the rest of the people also greeted her.

The old lady walked straight to the first place, sat down steadily, and looked at Jiang Fuyue with some dissatisfaction: "Fuyue, I didn't say you, you invited so many distinguished guests over, why don't you know how to say hello to me?" You junior, where can you afford such a big scene, what can you do if you slack off? ”

Before Jiang Fuyue could speak, Duchess Jinguo spoke first: "Old lady, this is a misunderstanding, we all heard that Fuyue got good tea, and came uninvited!" It's our rudeness first, where did we say that we were lazy? ”

After that, Duchess Jinguo beckoned Jiang Fuyue to sit beside her: "You tea maker can't leave the table, sit down quickly, I haven't drunk enough!" ”

Everyone echoed one after another, and for a while it seemed as if the old lady had been left aside.

The old lady's face suddenly became a little ugly.

Think about it carefully, don't say that she offended the Duchess of Jinguo, the two of them have never even met, how can this Duchess of Jinguo block her words when she opens her mouth, and she still looks like she wants to support Jiang Fuyue?

The old lady sat for a while, and when she saw that no one paid attention to her, she excused herself from sitting for a long time to get up and walk, and went straight back to Songshou Temple.

She was gone, and the atmosphere in the garden was not affected in the slightest.

Until it was almost dark, everyone was still unsatisfied, but a few tea-making maids had no tea leaves at hand, so they all came to find Jiang Fuyue.

Jiang Fuyue suddenly looked embarrassed.

There were so many people here today, it was already unexpected for her, and these people drank one by one and asked for another, and the tea was gone in an instant, and she really didn't have much left.

Seeing her embarrassment, Duchess Jinguo coughed and said, "Okay, okay, it's getting dark, let's go back first!" The teahouse will open in a few days, so let's go buy it again! ”

As soon as Duchess Jinguo's voice fell, several other Duchess and Old Lady Ge also nodded in agreement.

Several of the most valuable people expressed their positions, and the others naturally couldn't say anything more, so they had to leave reluctantly.

Jiang Fuyue personally got up to send him off, and secretly stuffed a few cans of tea for Sun Jingke by the way.

Receiving Jiang Fuyue's eyes, Sun Jingke hurriedly acted like a thief, lowered his head and sleeves and left quickly, earlier than the Duchess of Jinguo.
