These words touched Zhou's heart, and she added without knowing the meaning: "Those foxy girls should be beaten out."
What I'm waiting for is your words.
Hua Yang looked sad and sighed: "Sister-in-law didn't know something, so she beat her out. The man was left outside, and the head of the house, the grandma, supported her and couldn't control her. It will make you even more angry."
Well, you Huayang, you actually went into the pit and waited for me here. Zhou's face suddenly changed, her chest heaved up and down with anger, and she just wanted to slap him.
Hua Yang covered his handkerchief proudly and smiled. Fight me and see if I don't fight you to death. You're as stupid as a pig.
Mrs. Wei looked deeply at Huayang, picked up the tea cup, and drank a cup of tea by herself, pretending not to hear.
Guan, who was silent from beginning to end, also drank tea like the old lady.
When the four young ladies in the house arrived, their faces turned red and blue, and they were all shy when they heard their elders talking about their aunt.
At this moment, the curtain was lifted, and the housekeeper came in and replied: "Madam, someone from the Jiang family is here."
Mrs. Wei put down the tea cup: "Jiang family, which Jiang family?"
The mother-in-law said: "Madam, we are from the Jiang family of the Imperial College."
"ah!"
Mrs. Wei exclaimed and said hurriedly: "Quick, invite people in."
The hearts of the girls jumped. When did the Jiang family start walking with the Gu family
From thousands of miles away, from the emperor to the common people, everyone knows that the Chiang family is ranked second in poetry and books, and no one in the world dares to be ranked first.
The Jiang family traces its roots back to the ancestors of their ancestors. As far back as Emperor Taizu was still struggling with Baji on horseback and conquering the country with Hengchihengchi, the ancestors of the Jiang family were already educating people. Even Taizu's founding declaration was drafted with the help of the Chiang family.
Therefore, the so-called poetry and calligraphy family of the Gu family, compared to the Chiang family, can be said to be nothing more than Sun Wukong seeing the Tathagata Buddha.
Therefore, when Mrs. Zhu, the eldest grandma of the Jiang family, walked in majestically, wearing a chinchilla coat inlaid with rose gold and thick rose red silk, and a phoenix hairpin inlaid with rubies, all the female relatives of the Gu family, together with his wife, were there. Inside, everyone came forward to greet him.
Mrs. Zhu walked up to Mr. Wei, bowed Yingying, and said with a smile: "Greetings, madam. How is your health lately?"
It was obviously the first time we met, but we talked as if we were old friends. The etiquette of treating others was obvious from everyone.
Mrs. Wei responded with a smile and hurriedly called the maid to watch and serve tea.
Madam Zhu was not polite, and sat squarely at the head of Madam Wei. The two maids who accompanied her said blessing to Madam Wei in a very polite manner.
Zhu took a few sips of tea and said with a smile: "When I learned that you had entered Beijing, my ancestors urged me to come."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart skipped a beat. The ancestor of the Jiang family was someone who even the emperor had to sell his face to.
Mrs. Wei was a little confused and turned her attention to the princess.
The latter laughed hurriedly and said: "The Gu family is so virtuous and capable, but it bothers our ancestors to worry about it. It is really shameful. It is us, the younger generation, who should pay our respects to our ancestors. How is your ancestor's health?"
Zhu smiled and said, "She's still smart. It's just that she's getting older, and she always thinks about things and people from the past. She had a dream a few days ago. Who do you think she dreamed about?"
"Who?" Mrs. Zhu's face changed slightly, and she sighed: "She actually dreamed... Hey, I won't say anything else. My ancestors used to only take prescriptions prescribed by the eldest daughter of the Qian family. No, When my ancestors heard that you were coming to Beijing, they forced me to take Miss Six over, saying that I would stay for a few days and that I would like to ask my wife.
A convenience. "
As soon as these words came out, others didn't notice anything, and Princess Huayang's expression suddenly dropped. In front of her, the second wife, she actually praised her dead ex-wife. Isn't this like stabbing her in the heart with a knife
Mrs. Zhu winked and said with a smile: "We can't do anything about her. Who makes her the ancestor? Even the palace has given way to her, so we, the younger generation, can only follow the old lady's wishes."
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Wei couldn't care less about the princess's face, and hurriedly smiled and said: "It is really a blessing for that girl to be remembered by our ancestors. Come, please invite Miss Six to come out and prepare everything. , go and kowtow to the ancestors.”
Seeing that her goal was achieved, Mrs. Zhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but happily interacted with the female family members of the Gu family.
"Miss, miss, hurry, hurry, the Jiang family has sent someone to pick you up."
The door of the ancestral hall suddenly opened, and Yueniang ran in with a happy face, and helped Qingguan up without saying a word.
"That's great. I finally don't have to kneel anymore. Miss, I have been so anxious this night."
So quickly, Qingguan leaned weakly on Yueniang and let her help her walk out, but she thought about it in her heart.
She originally thought that Jiang Hongwen would secretly bring her to the house at night like he did that day, but she never thought that the Jiang family would come to ask for someone openly and openly in broad daylight.
What kind of drama is this? Qingguan murmured unconsciously.
"What kind of drama? If you don't want to drama, as long as you don't let the young lady kneel down in the ancestral hall, you will be a great Amitabha."
Yueniang's face was filled with excitement: "Let's leave quickly, we can't let the Jiang family wait."
When Qingguan heard this, he paused.
"Why are you in a hurry? The matter of begging for help will naturally have to wait. Go and ask Chunni to go to Shou'an Hall to reply first. Just say that I have to take a bath and eat before I can go to Jiang's house with Grandma."
"Miss..." Yueniang was a little worried.
Qingguan said calmly: "Yue Niang, please remember that some scores must be laid out. I will take Chunni with me today. We can't live without people in this courtyard, so I can rest assured that you are here to sit in the battle."
"Yue Niang is keeping watch for the young lady."
After drinking a cup of tea, everyone did not see Gu Qingwan, but instead saw the maid beside her.
Chunni said in a crisp voice: "Madam, eldest grandma, second grandma. My young lady is taking a bath and eating. I specially asked my slave to reply. Please wait a moment for the eldest grandma of the Jiang family."
Hua Yang was holding back his anger and sneered: "Your young lady is so proud, she dares to trouble the elders."
Although Zhu felt unhappy, because of Jiang Hongwen's explanation, she had to smile and said: "Miss Qianjin must take her time when she goes out. Go and tell your lady, don't be in a hurry, take your time."
Huayang secretly gritted his teeth and said nothing, only thinking in his heart that this ancestor of the Jiang family had the wrong muscle. He thought of no one but the Qian family.
Wei's face was sweet but her heart was bitter. She drank tea leisurely and talked with Zhu. If I had known that the Chiang family was coming, I shouldn't have sent them to the ancestral hall and made them wait. It was really rude.
Zhou thought about it in her heart. The younger son is now studying in the Imperial College. If he can be appreciated by Jiang Jijiu, his future will be different.
The girls in the Gu family each have their own thoughts, but they dare not leave.
When Zhu saw this situation, his smile became deeper and deeper.
After two cups of tea, Qingguan Fang was supported by Yueniang and Chunni into the Shou'an Hall.
Zhu didn't wait for her to come closer, then stood up and held her hand, taking the opportunity to look at it carefully.
He didn't look at it, but Zhu's heart skipped a beat when he saw it. This sixth lady looks outstanding, but she is still young. Could it be that the King of Hell has taken a fancy to her
Qingguan clearly saw the shock in Zhu's eyes, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, and she slowly lowered her head.
Mrs. Wei hurriedly said: "Sixth girl, follow Grandma. Remember to be careful with what you say. Don't lose the face of the house."
Qingguan Fu said: "Yes, madam."
"Wait!"
Princess Huayang walked up to Mrs. Zhu and said with a smile: "Grandma, you don't know something. This child used to have some bad brains and lack of sense in words and deeds. She was afraid that people would laugh at her. Can you let her My sister followed me into the house."
"This..." Mrs. Zhu hesitated. Before she came, the King of Hell didn't say that this girl had a bad mind.
Mrs. Wei was also frightened by what happened yesterday. If the sixth girl said something shocking again, there wouldn't be another hundred thousand taels in the house to accompany her. She hurriedly said: "Grandma, you don't know something. Her illness It’s really cured.”
Mrs. Zhu chuckled and said, "Okay then, any young lady in the mansion will go with you."
"Ling girl." Princess Huayang blurted out.
"Second girl!" Wei said softly.
The atmosphere in the hall was instantly awkward.
Qing Guan's beady eyes moved, she gently tugged on Zhu's sleeve, and said softly: "Grandma, can I let my second sister accompany me? My second sister is knowledgeable and courteous, gentle and pleasant, and my ancestors will definitely like her." her."
With a soft voice with a hint of pleading, and bright eyes with a hint of water in her eyes, how could she refuse, Zhu said with a smile: "Good boy, let the second lady accompany you."
A flash of relief flashed in Wei's eyes. This kid repays his kindness.
Huayang lowered his lips slightly and looked at Qingguan with evil eyes.
The two concubines looked envious.
"You old man dares to ruin my good deeds."
Huayang angrily took the tea cup handed by the maid. Before he could hold it firmly, he lifted it up and cursed angrily: "You evil-minded whore, you want to burn me to death. You've burnt me to death. Please sit up straight." Grandma Fang goes.”
The little maid was so frightened that her legs trembled and she fell to her knees, not daring to say a word.
Aunt Tan winked hurriedly, and the little maid left as if running away.
Wu Yanling sat on the pit and said coldly: "Why should mother be angry with a little maid? What's so good about the Jiang family? Even if they come to invite me in eight sedans, I don't want to go."
"What do you know as a girl?"
Hua Yang rolled his eyes in anger. The old princess had just told her that she wanted to betroth Ling'er to the Jiang family. What a coincidence today, the Jiang family came to visit.
Originally, he wanted his daughter to go over and explore the way, but the old man beat him to it. Although he thinks she is a fool, the old man is also planning for the second girl.
Wu Yanling was scolded by her mother for the first time. Her pretty face turned red with anger and she sneered: "My daughter is young and grew up in the south. Naturally, she doesn't understand the twists and turns in Beijing. I only regret that my daughter's biological father died early. If not..."
Wu Yanling thought of the sad place and tears streamed down her face.
I feel aggrieved when I think about it, that I am a rich man and a direct grandson of the royal family, but I have stayed in the unpopular Gu Mansion for five years, and I have to be ridiculed as "from outside". As soon as his daughter shed tears, Huayang's heart suddenly softened. She glanced at Aunt Tan, who opened the curtain and went out, calling two considerate maids, one on the left and one on the right, to guard the door.
