Chapter 70: Mocking
Because the plum banquet is a private banquet for the eldest princess, and the invitees are either royal relatives or princes and dignitaries, most of them are familiar with each other, and there are no rules for the main banquet.
It's just that it's still called a separate seat for men and women.
The eldest princess of Lin'an was originally going to entertain the regent and other guests as the lord, but after thinking about it, she supported the horse.
She summoned the maid and asked, "Is the Shen Jiang clan here?" β
"Back to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, I am here, but Shen Jiang's temperament is calm, and he is not a person who will cause trouble."
"She won't cause trouble, it doesn't mean that others won't make trouble, Mrs. Dingxiang Hou and Mrs. An Yuanbo are also here today, right?"
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, they are all here."
"Very good, Mrs. Dingxiang and Shen Lin have grown up together since childhood, not to mention Mrs. An Yuanbo, the idea is to ask them to get together, arrange a good time, and let the princess pass."
"Yes, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."
"Remember, don't let the men in front of you know about the things between women."
This is the meaning of not letting the regent be notified.
The maid left quickly, and the eldest princess of Lin'an walked slowly to the backyard, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Nothing else is in a hurry, it has already been arranged anyway, she wants to see first, the princess regent who can make her little uncle fascinated, in addition to her appearance, what else does she have the ability to?
?Backyard.
The formal table has not been opened, and there are cherry fried, Li Zixuan, Jiaqingzi, and fried ginkgo that are only available in the Ouchi Honey Frying Bureau on the table...... and other tea and snacks.
All the ladies and relatives gathered indoors, around the fireplace, or sat under the porch basking in the sun, gossiping.
The children were playing in the yard.
Jiang Peirong came to the capital, this is the first time to go out of the side courtyard, to participate in such a big banquet, not as handy as Shen Lin's, she is not willing to communicate with others, and she is afraid of making mistakes and making jokes, so she hides in the corner as much as possible and does not make a sound.
Shen Yuanyuan's big eyes fell on the honey fry on the table for a while, and fell on the children playing outside for a while, but they were just hugged by their mother, and they couldn't go anywhere.
"Auntie, let's go find my sister."
"This is the eldest princess's mansion, you can't run around, be careful and lose the rules, and cause trouble for your sister."
Shen Yuanyuan snorted, pouted and said unhappily: "Yuanyuan won't cause trouble to my sister." β
She looked at the Jiaqingzi she was holding in her hand, it was when she first came, she heard that she could eat as much as she wanted, so she took two, but she was reprimanded by A-Niang.
At this moment, she wanted to eat and leave it for her sister, and she kept swallowing saliva and fighting.
"I don't know whose sister this is? Look at the face, how can you sit here alone? The children are all in the yard, but don't detain the little lady. β
A noble lady came over, and saw that Jiang Peirong was dressed in a low-key but very decent manner, thinking that this was a new noble lady, so she came forward to visit, "The concubine is from the Weiguo Mansion, this is polite." β
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Jiang Peirong hurriedly got up, and as soon as she returned the salute, someone came over next to her.
She stopped in front of Jiang Peirong and said, "Mrs. Shizi is making up." This is just a concubine who can't stand on the stage, how can she afford such a big gift from Mrs. Shizi? β
"Huh?" The wife of the prince of Weiguo was surprised, she glanced at Jiang Peirong again, and whispered, "How did the wife bring the concubine to the table?" Which family is this husband who is ignorant? β
Shen Yuanyuan said without stage fright: "My aunt is not a concubine, she is the general's wife." β
"Auntie?" Mrs. Shizi muttered in a low voice, "Whose daughter-in-law calls her mother 'A-Niang'?" It's so unruly. β
Shen Yuanyuan's little face was a little more confused: A-Niang doesn't call A-Niang, what should I call?
She looked up at Jiang Peirong, Jiang Peirong saw that there were more and more people here, and she wanted to quietly withdraw from the right and wrong place.
Someone stood behind her, blocking her way.
Even if he didn't have the honor given by the Shen family, the Shen Lin family still had the dignity brought by An Yuanbo's family.
Mrs. Dingxianghou, who has been friends with Shen Lin's family since childhood, said: "Which other family can it be?" There is no other family in Beijing who dares to openly raise an outer room. β
"It turns out that this is the outer room of the Shen family, when General Shen abandoned his official position and eloped with others, there was a lot of trouble in Beijing."
"When you are old, you still come out to swagger, this is to look at Mrs. Shen's good temperament and easy bullying, right?"
"Don't look at who you are? I dare to come to such an occasion. β
The ridicule was everywhere, and Shen Lin waited for everyone to say enough before he slowly spoke: "Let all the nobles laugh, my sister Jiang has been raised to a flat wife, not a concubine." β
During the time when Jiang Peirong was given the title of wife, the officials in the capital were in danger because of the Tang family case, and the family members were worried about their future and fate, and they had no time to care about who had been sealed.
What's more, the Shen family has not made a big announcement of the banquet, so it is normal for everyone not to know.
As soon as the flat wife came out, the audience was in an uproar.
All the ladies present expressed their disdain for the Shen family's behavior of spoiling their concubines and killing their wives, and some of the sisters who were friends with the Shen Lin clan secretly added firewood to the fire, and everyone expressed deep sympathy for the Shen Lin family.
looked at Jiang Peirong's eyes, and there was a little more anger.
Shen Lin's face was full of warmth and said: "Sister Jiang, these are all the wives of the dignitaries in Beijing, why don't you come to salute you?" β
Jiang Peirong hurriedly saluted.
Like the Guogong Mansion, he immediately brushed his sleeves, raised his chin and said, "Don't!" I can't afford it! β
seems to be like Dingxiang Houfu, but he has become a good person, "Sister Jiang has just arrived, and she doesn't know the number of etiquette in Beijing. β
Jiang Peirong was at a loss and looked at her.
Mrs. Dingxianghou said unhurriedly: "This concubine should kowtow to serve tea when she sees her wife, everyone is her own sister today, and Sister Jiang kowtows three times, and that's it." β
Little master, there is more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue reading, the back is more exciting!
"We can't afford the etiquette on the side, this concubine kowtows, we can still bear it."
Everyone gossiped and instigated Jiang Peirong to kneel.
The eldest princess's people pinched the time just right, and as soon as Shen Yangui arrived outside the courtyard, he heard the movement inside, and through the flower window, he could easily see the situation inside, but he couldn't do anything through the wall.
Inside the wall, Jiang Peirong was surrounded by a crowd, Shen Yuanyuan opened her little short hand, protecting her mother in front of her, her voice was cute and soft, but she was very brave, and said:
"My aunt is Mrs. Fate! My sister is a princess! If any of you dare to bully my mother, my sister won't spare you! β
"Princess?" Mrs. An Yuanbo sneered, "I remember it too clearly, she used to beg Ba'er to marry my brother as a concubine, but isn't this concubine just to give birth to a child for the family?" She's too old, older than the rough maid in my brother's yard, what can she do when she comes back? β
The person next to him echoed, "Yes, at such an age, and can't give birth, or is it born in the outer room, who would put such a person in their eyes?" β
"It's all at this time, I saw that the carriage of the Regent's Mansion had already come, and the niece of the Queen Mother was still here, but I didn't see the princess."
"I heard that on the day of the wedding, the prince left her outside the house to dry for half an hour, and also worshiped the side concubine, and the next day the concubine went to the side concubine to say goodbye, and returned to Ning on the third day, the general's mansion did not see His Royal Highness the Regent, if I were her, I would not come to this banquet."
"Princess Regent has arrivedβ"
All the ladies turned their eyes sideways, their eyes crossed with contempt, obviously they didn't take this princess in their eyes, but they had to salute because of their status.
When Shen Yan returned to the courtyard, the eldest princess of Lin'an happened to be sitting in the rockery pavilion next door, she picked up the teacup, and asked the maid next to her for a long time, and said:
"What do you think our princess regent will do with them?"
Like to spoil his wife excessively: The rebirth of the black regent is too sticky, please collect: () The spoiled wife is excessive: The rebirth of the black regent is too clingy.
