Fang Birong's eyes darkened, and she felt that she was looking at her with disdain, and felt embarrassed.
However, she was a little annoyed in her heart.
Anyway, she is also the concubine daughter of the Hou family, and her family background is not low. Why do these people look at her like this? !
She grew up with her parents since she was a child, and she was far away from right and wrong in Beijing. Naturally, no one whispered nonsensical things in her ears. Although she didn't understand why her parents entrusted her marriage to her sister, she also couldn't help it. Didn't care too much. Therefore, they didn't know that Pinglianghou's Mansion had long been a joke in Beijing.
The house full of female relatives looked at Fang Birong from time to time, and there were many wives and ladies who didn't know Pinglianghou's mansion inquired in low voices, which made Fang Birong more and more eager to find a hole in the ground.
At this moment, she suddenly realized, could it be that there is something about her family in the capital that she doesn't know
She didn't dare to think about it, she just wanted to shrink herself into a ball to avoid the sight that made her feel uncomfortable.
Shen Xinyan pretended not to notice, and continued to exchange greetings with Princess Kang and other aristocratic wives, then sat quietly to the side with a smile.
In her previous life, she introduced Fang Birong like this - "This is the sister-in-law's first sister. My mother took pity on her and worried that she would be exhausted at home, so she asked me to bring her to see the world, so that I could meet some sisters."
Every word and every sentence showed how much the Eldest Princess attached great importance to this girl Fang, and she just weakened the Marquis of Pingliang's Mansion, and on the contrary drew her together with the British Duke's Mansion. Even if someone present remembered the girl's background, for the sake of the Eldest Princess, they would not embarrass her too much.
But in this life, why? Why should she protect her
Naturally, Mrs. Yang would not stand up for Fang Birong, she had already found a familiar wife and sat down to chat and laugh.
Fang Birong was not familiar with the place here, and Shen Xinyan and Yang Shi had no intention of taking her to socialize at all, so they could only sit with Shen Xinyan among the ladies with their heads down, looking even more abrupt.
Shen Xinyan is quite calm, anyway, in her past and present lives, has she made few jokes for people to see
In the end, the head of Pingxiu County, who was still the host, came forward and invited Fang Birong to enjoy the flowers in the garden.
Naturally, Fang Birong would not refuse. After all, County Lord Pingxiu was in the circle of top noble girls in the capital. If she could get in, it would do no harm to her to marry into a noble family in the future.
"Why did you bring Fang's younger sister?" Someone touched her arm lightly, Shen Xinyan turned her head, and saw Fu Wan, the sister she had been friends with, sitting beside her at some point, asking in a low voice.
Shen Xinyan's eyes warmed up, and she showed her a helpless expression.
Fu Wan understood, and patted the back of her hand with some pity: "It's hard for you."
It's enough to be aggrieved by being suppressed by Fang's in the mansion, and now he has to bring Fang's younger sister even out to a banquet, I'm afraid it's also paving the way for this girl. She would never believe it if it was said that there was no meaning of the eldest princess.
It is said that the eldest princess is kind and loving, but in her opinion, the eldest princess's heart is really too strong.
Due to the occasion, it was inconvenient for Fu Wan to say more, so she just took Shen Xinyan to find a quiet place to talk about some interesting things about her children.
"...Look at her frivolous appearance, as if she is afraid that others will not know. But a small servant, what's so great!" A disdainful hum came through the layers of flowers behind her, Shen Xinyan and Fu Wan looked at each other, Unanimously, they stopped talking.
"Her husband's position as a servant, no one knows that she got it by flattering the Qin family. But she still thinks that her husband is great, and he wants to be superior in every way! She doesn't know that she is not as good as Shen Xinyan, a dude. The eldest son of Erbajing, the cousin of the current emperor, and the future prince of the country!"
"you do not say!"
…
The voice of speaking gradually faded away, Fu Wan couldn't help looking at Shen Xinyan lying on the gun, Shen Xinyan shrugged helplessly, and said mockingly: "I didn't know that I would be carried out to suppress others."
"Take care of what they are doing, don't look at them acting like they are invincible and aloof, you may be suffering in your heart! Let's talk about Luo Xiuxiu. Her husband has been promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials before she was 30 years old. She also It's quite glamorous to become the servant's wife, who knows that the troubles of those aunts and concubines in her house can really make people angry."
"You're right." Shen Xinyan didn't know.
In the past, after the girlfriends and sisters got married one after another, they still couldn't avoid comparisons when they met again. It just changed from comparing whose jewelry was more expensive and beautiful in the past to now comparing whose husbands are promising and have enough sons.
I believe that in a few years, there will be another one - Bibi whose son is more successful!
Now her son's name of being smart has not yet been announced, but her husband's reputation as a dude is well known, so that every time she meets her boudoir sisters, she is always the one who gets ridiculed and sympathized with.
"I said that the two of them must have found a quiet place to whisper, but you didn't believe it. See, it's believable now, right?"
"It's still Xiuxiu, you know them well. I said you two are real. It's rare for the sisters to get together, but you hide and whisper. What are you talking about? Come and let us listen!"
The woman's voice with a delicate smile rang out one after another, Shen Xinyan looked at the person who came, and then looked at Fu Wan, both of them saw a trace of helplessness in their eyes.
It's really impossible to talk about people behind their backs, no, Luo Xiuxiu was just mentioned, and she brought people to find her!
"I'm talking about Xiuxiu becoming Mrs. Minister at such a young age. Your husband is so successful, I'm so envious!" Fu Wan replied with a smile.
Luo Xiuxiu, who was the leader, dressed in a red begonia, instantly had a proud face, and pretended to say: "This is nothing more than the love of the Holy One."
Luo Xiuxiu was accompanied by three women, Shen Xinyan only recognized Xu Yuzhi standing on her left, and the other two only looked familiar, but couldn't remember which wife they were.
Xu Yuzhi was the woman who jokingly asked what they were talking about just now. Seeing the complacency on Luo Xiuxiu's face, she curled her lips invisibly, but in the blink of an eye, she smiled and said: "The Holy Majesty is my favorite, and Master Li must be capable."
Luo Xiuxiu's husband is surnamed Li, and he is Li Shilang who was just promoted not long ago.
"That's not true! I remember that Mr. Li was from Tanhua, right? My natal nephew still has Mr. Li's articles in his study!"
"With such achievements at such a young age, the future is truly limitless!"
…
Not to be outdone, the other two women praised in one go, until Luo Xiuxiu laughed from ear to ear.
While the two were talking, Shen Xinyan subconsciously looked at Fu Wan who was beside her, and happened to meet Fu Wan's eyes, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Because both of them recognized each other, these two women were the ones who had fully expressed their disdain for Mr. Li behind his back.
really...
She shook her head helplessly.
"Ugh..." Xu Yuzhi suddenly pushed away a woman who was rather mellow, walked quickly to the side and retched, and successfully interrupted their praise.
"What's the matter? What's the matter? But you're not feeling well?" Luo Xiuxiu was puzzled.
"Look at this, could it be that she's pregnant?" the shorter one asked tentatively.
Xu Yuzhi wiped the corner of her mouth, took a sip of the hot tea that Fu Wan handed over, and then nodded shyly: "It's not yet three months..."
Then he said nervously: "You must not be heretics!"
"Naturally! Congratulations! This is the fourth child, right? In a few months, you will have a younger brother for Brother Ming."
"I would like to have a daughter. Those three rogue monkeys really make people worry. It's better to be a daughter. It's my mother's caring little padded jacket!" Xu Yuzhi stroked her belly gently, her face shining with soft joy.
He only occasionally looked at Luo Xiuxiu with a stiff face with a bit of complacency.
So what if the husband is promising again? Can't even have a son! Not even Shen Xinyan. Shen Xinyan still has a son by her side!
"I said Yuzhi, you are really serious. You know you are pregnant and you don't stay at home to rest. There are people coming and going here. If there is a mistake, it is not a joke." With a fake smile on the skin, he said.
"Don't worry! I've had three times of experience, and the doctor said that I have a solid pregnancy, so I need to walk around more. It will be easier to give birth in the future! My sister is pregnant less frequently, so it's okay if I don't know much about it." Xu Yuzhi raised her brows slightly, not giving an inch.
"So I am talking too much!"
"My sister is also kind."
…
Listening to the two of them talking, Shen Xinyan was quite helpless. There was such a momentary impulse that she really wanted to go forward and tell them that the Qin family next to Luo Xiuxiu's husband would soon fall, and his official position would also be removed; and Xu Yuzhi's child was not born smoothly. , Not only that, but also completely damaged the body.
However, rationality prevailed in the end, and she tried hard to force her words back, otherwise it would not be a dispute between Luo and Xu, but they would join forces to besiege him.
The more she listened, the more bored she felt, she lightly tugged on Fu Wan's cuff, the two of them shared their hearts, and slipped away quietly while those people were not paying attention.
"It's finally quiet!" Shen Xinyan let out a long breath.
But thanks to Master Li's promotion and Xu Yuzhi's fourth pregnancy, everyone's attention was attracted, otherwise it would be the countless times she felt their warm comfort.
Who made her husband the most disappointing!
Fu Wan covered her mouth and smiled lightly.
And at this time, Wei Shizi, who was not up to his expectations, was staring blankly at the lovely and pitiful strange woman kneeling in front of him.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, please help me!" The woman bowed down sadly.
Although Wei Junhang was surprised, but at any rate he had been in a place with three religions and nine streams, so he soon came to his senses.
"Aren't you the second lady's cousin? I have never met you..."
The woman shook her head slowly, two lines of tears rolled down: "Ruyan knows that this is very presumptuous, only the son can save me now, please forgive me, take Ruyan away from here!"
"Oh?" Wei Shizi, who was not up to date, raised his eyebrows, quite cynically.
"Ruyan can pretend to be a girl and leave behind the son, just ask the son to show mercy and save Ruyan from the abyss!"
"Oh, so you had a plan!" Wei Junhang glanced sideways at the little bundle beside her, and said slowly.
The woman choked immediately.
