The wives and ladies who didn't know the truth heard it, and they all complained and said: "Mrs. Guogong's words are too much. Then Xia Xinxin relied on her family status to do such a thing. Do you want you to swallow your anger?"
Their husband's family and even their mother's family are members of the big prince's family, and they have never been used to the scholarly and noble style of the Xia family. Xia Xinxin is unlucky for them, and only four words can describe their inner feelings.
Bai Fuling shook her head and said: "Miss Xia is just a passing moment. Grandma taught her a good lesson. I damaged her reputation, and even Manager Yang was reprimanded along with me... I have promised her that the old man will never go out to discuss poetry, Guanshi Yang can't say too much for the comparison of words. Mrs. Huang, I'm really... I'm really sorry..."
She had a pitiful demeanor, like a child who did something wrong and was afraid of being blamed by adults. The older wives saw that their motherhood was overflowing, so they still had the nerve to continue to force her, so the matter was exposed.
Bai Fuling secretly smiled inwardly, although Xiao Ni is not a good guy, his usual tricks are really good.
She wanted to let Hongqu know more about the tea scriptures of the nobles in the capital, so she specially asked Mrs. Huang and several other ladies who are good at this way to teach her, with a gentle and courteous attitude. Madam and several distinguished guests coaxed her to smile, the more she looked at her, the more lovely she felt.
Several people sat for a while, and the servant girl came to report that Grandma Cui had brought General Lu's wife to visit. Bai Fuling didn't react, but Yang Mei and Bai Guo immediately regained their spirits. There is more than one general named Lu in Qi State, but other Lu Ying is the only wife whose wife has a relationship with the family surnamed Cui. Needless to say, the wife of General Lu who came here is undoubtedly Cui Zhenyi!
Lu Ying has a very high prestige in Qi's army, known as General Ever Victory, and has already worshiped the second rank at a young age, and Cui Zhenyi is also the fourth rank. She is not very old among this group of ladies and ladies, but her rank is the highest. .
When Mrs. Huang and the other guests heard that she was coming, they didn't dare to neglect her and stood up to greet her. Seeing Bai Fuling's blank face, Yang Mei knew that she had no idea who was coming, so she lowered her head and whispered something in her ear, Bai Fuling sighed, and said helplessly: "It's really a narrow road to the enemy, I hope you don't come here later." Just scare her."
There is no doubt that Bai Fuling is the nemesis in Cui Zhenyi's life. She was frightened a while ago, and she managed to calm down. She was invited by her sister-in-law to go out for a walk, and bumped into this stall for the first time.
She has been playing autistic in the general's mansion these days, and she has never heard of Bai Fuling's "great reputation" in the capital, so she followed her sister-in-law here without thinking much. Her father, Cui Changyun, was the right servant of the third-rank military department during his lifetime. He was at the same level as Huang Tengye, the host here. After her father died, her family was not as good as before. Barely became the head of the Ministry of War of the sixth rank.
The reason why the eldest prince is willing to make friends with her brother is because of her husband Lu Ying, so the Cui family has always attached great importance to her promising daughter. The sister-in-law usually goes out to socialize, and anyone who can attract her will try her best to attract her, which is a bit like a fake tiger's prestige.
Cui Zhenyi was full of airs in front of the officials and wives. When Mrs. Huang personally greeted her into the hall, she held her head high, with a reserved and indifferent smile on her slightly pale face, but her noble and dignified mask The moment he stepped into the hall and saw Bai Fuling, his face froze.
She stayed for a while before not exclaiming loudly, shouldn't this nemesis be in Beiguan City? How did you return to the capital? ! Still appearing in Master Huang's house in a grand manner
Mrs. Huang next to her didn't know the fear in her heart, so she joked with a smile: "Madam Lu has never met Miss Bai before, this is the number one talented woman and the number one beauty newly released in Beijing. It's the first time I see her." At that time, I could see my eyes straight, Mrs. Zhong Guogong is so lucky to have such a granddaughter who is so beautiful!"
"Ms. Huang is overrated..." Bai Fuling said humbly with a blushing face.
She almost became a repeater with similar entertainment, but I have to say, it's really boring. In fact, she felt that she fully deserved these compliments, and what she wanted to say was—thank you, you have a good eye.
Cui Zhenyi listened to Mrs. Huang's introduction, and it took her a while to realize that this merchant's daughter is actually the granddaughter of Duke Zhong? !
She hates and is afraid of Bai Fuling in her heart, but she has long since lost her fighting spirit, especially when she heard that she seems to have another backer, and she dare not provoke her. What she wants to do most is to immediately lift up her skirt and run away , but the remaining rationality reminded her that there are still many official wives and daughters here, if she does such a disrespectful thing, she will become a laughing stock in the capital without waiting until tomorrow.
Cui Zhenyi forced herself to pull out a smile that was uglier than crying, and nodded stiffly to Bai Fuling.
Bai Fuling never regarded her as an opponent from the beginning to the end, and those who wanted to take revenge had already taken revenge. As long as Cui Zhenyi stopped provoking her, she didn't intend to do anything to her, so she smiled politely and unfamiliarly at her and stopped. spoke.
A group of people sat down to taste tea again. Cui Zhenyi sat silently and strangely at the place farthest from Bai Fuling. Soon others noticed her strangeness. No one thought that she was afraid of Bai Fuling, who was young, beautiful and The "delicate" little girl is only considered to be caused by physical discomfort after a serious illness.
She is a distinguished guest, Madam Huang can't just leave her aside and gossip with other high-spirited ladies and ladies. She made a few jokes and saw that Cui Zhenyi didn't respond, and the scene suddenly became a bit cold. Her sister-in-law Mrs. Cui did her part and talked about Cui Zhenyi's heroic deeds of finding her husband thousands of miles away, how she guarded the city on behalf of her husband, and took the lead in going to the top of the city to inspire the morale of the soldiers.
This is her favorite topic to talk about. It is simply a legend for those ladies and ladies in the capital who don't leave their homes and don't go out. Even if many people have heard Mrs. Cui's storytelling at other gatherings, they don't mind. Listen to it a few times.
Cui Zhenyi was in a mess, at first she didn't hear what her sister-in-law was saying, but when she settled down, sister-in-law Cui had already talked about how she went up to the tower to watch the battle, and when she thought that Bai Fuling, the witness of the incident, was listening, her The complexion suddenly became very exciting.
In the past, she has always enjoyed the envious and admiring eyes of those ladies and ladies when they heard her "story". These can make her forget all the setbacks in Beiguan City for a while, and immerse herself in the dream of a heroine. In the novel, imagine that you are a married couple with Lu Yingju who are on the same level as Lu Yingju and have an unswerving love. The bumps, hardships, and dangerous experiences on the way to and from Beiguan City have become her medals of honor.
But today is different. The existence of Bai Fuling mercilessly pulls her back to reality—being completely disliked by her husband, bumping into walls everywhere in Beiguan City, and receiving death threats after returning to Beijing. Images of frustration, anger, and hatred reappeared in her mind like a revolving lantern.
She didn't even dare to look up to see Bai Fuling's reaction, she and the mothers of the maids around her must have ridiculed smiles on their faces! The more I think about it, the more I feel ashamed, and I can't help but put the teacup on the table again.
boom! An abrupt sound interrupted Mrs. Cui's wonderful speech, the hall was silent, and everyone looked up at Cui Zhenyi in surprise.
Cui Zhenyi realized what she had done and regretted it, but she couldn't stay any longer, so she hurriedly stood up and apologized to Mrs. Huang: "I'm really sorry, I feel a little uncomfortable, and I disturbed everyone's pleasure. Please go to the general's mansion to have a drink and make amends."
After finishing speaking, the sister-in-law was still not satisfied, and the disappointed sister-in-law left in a hurry without waiting for Mrs. Huang to keep her.
Mrs. Huang was upset, but who made her rank higher, so she had to smile and turn the topic to cover it up. Seeing that the time was almost up, the other wives and young ladies all tactfully got up and left. Bai Fuling also left with the crowd.
After going out, Bai Guo and Yang Mei squeezed into her carriage without saying a word, and couldn't help laughing out loud after leaving the Huang Mansion for a while.
Bai Fuling rolled her eyes weakly and said: "You have to laugh and don't laugh in my carriage, people think that the person in the carriage is a lunatic who escaped from somewhere!"
Bai Guo laughed so hard that tears flowed out, she rubbed her stomach while wiping her tears and said, "Today is really worth it, wow, that Cui Zhenyi really dares to brag about it, she must have read too many legendary novels. The number one heroine of the Qi State, a generation of female generals who can stand shoulder to shoulder with General Lu! My God! I can't do it...Miss, you are too tolerant, don't you find it funny?"
Bai Fuling thought about it for a while, and burst out laughing: "It's really funny."
Yang Mei regained her strength, and sighed: "She must have never thought that Miss would come to the capital from Beiguan City. This bullshit has gone to the sky."
When Bai Fuling heard her mention Beiguan City, thinking of the depression and boredom in the capital these days, she couldn't help but miss that good time when she could do whatever she wanted and be domineering.
Thinking of Beiguancheng, he thought of his brother-in-law Lu Ying, and the smile on Bai Fuling's beam faded. There are less than ten days before her wedding ceremony. I don't know if the eldest brother can arrive
Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard someone outside the car say: "My master would like to invite Miss Bai to the west of the city for a while to discuss something important."
Bai Fuling frowned, why is this way of treating guests so familiar
Bai Ah Wu seemed to negotiate a few words with the other party, then galloped to the side of the car and said in a low voice, "It's from His Highness Six."
Bai Fuling thought of Yang Heng's indecent behavior last time, and immediately became angry from the heart, and the evil turned to the guts: "No! Tell him to cool off!"
Bai Ah Wu hesitated for a moment and said: "The person who came said that the matter is very important, so please go and see me anyway."
Bai Fuling calmed down and thought about it, reluctantly said: "Let him lead the way."
