Four hundred and thirtieth IX sister-in-law
Ganlu smiled and ordered the little maids to arrange meals.
Dou Zhao and Jiang Yan spent lunch together and went to the upper yard.
The women's banquet was placed in the flower hall in the upper yard. The banquet had just ended when they went there. Mrs. Song and others were accompanying several wives who were ordinary clothes and looked strangers to enjoy the chrysanthemums in front of the steps of the flower hall.
When everyone saw Dou Zhao, they were stunned.
Mrs. Song hurriedly recommended to everyone: "This is the prince's wife of our mansion, and this is the cousin of our mansion." She also pointed to the wives: "This is the wife of Li Xiucai, the wife of the Duke and the classmate of Xijin Academy, the wife of the Shanzhu of the Duke and the classmate of Xiujin Academy, and the wife of the Qin Lord of the Five Army Governor's Office..."
They are all unknown people.
Everyone greeted each other.
Dou Zhao said apologetically: "Because the child is still young, I can't live without people for a while, so I'm lazy!" He said to Mrs. Song again, "Fortunately, with the help of my aunt, the family can be smooth and smooth."
Mrs. Song was a little humble.
Someone laughed and said, "I have heard that a cousin lady has come to the mansion. She looks exactly like Mrs. Jiang, who has passed away. When I see you today, there is really nothing exaggerated." As he said that, he took Jiang Yan's hand, "You and Mrs. Jiang look so similar!"
Jiang Yan was a little uncomfortable.
Dou Zhao smiled and changed the subject: "It's getting late, why don't you move to the water pavilion? There was a stage there and someone was invited to sing the opera."
Everyone responded in unison with "Okay" and surrounded Dou Zhao and Jiang Yan to the water pavilion.
Among them is a thirty-year-old woman with a round face. She introduced herself as Huang, the wife of Bo Hu Chong, the left army leader of the Governor's Office of the Five Army. Her mother's family was the commander of the Dengzhou Guard. She smiled and said to Dou Zhao: "... When the old man was alive, my father asked the old man for his advice with my grandfather. After my father returned, he never forgot the magnificence of the British Mansion. I heard it since I was a child. I have always wanted to see what the British Mansion is like. Today I have been eye-opening. Not to mention anything else, the two ginkgo trees in front of the door have been at least a hundred years, right?"
Her attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, and her tone is cheerful and lively, which makes Dou Zhao very fond of.
Dou Zhao smiled and said, "I didn't expect that our two families would have such a fate! The ginkgo tree was said to have existed when it was opened. Because my ancestors liked it, it has been raised until today. I'm afraid it's more than a hundred years."
Mrs. Hu laughed and turned her eyes to Jiang Yan: "Miss Cousin is so beautiful. How old is this year?"
Dou Zhao frowned slightly.
Jiang Yan was honest, answered questions and said softly: "I'm fifteen today!"
"Ouch!" Mrs. Li looked full of regret, "I just got to the hairpin!"
I believe everyone has heard that Jiang Yan is a "widow".
Jiang Yan didn't say anything.
Dou Zhao asked the welcome nanny quietly: "Which opera troupe was invited today? What are their specialties?"
The nanny who welcomed the guest hurriedly smiled and said, "Today I invited Zeng Chusheng from Guanglian Club. However, Zeng Chusheng has not been singing for some days, so he sent two of his direct disciples. One was Zeng Liansheng and the other was Zeng Junsheng on stage. Zeng Chusheng only sat next to him. Zeng Liansheng was a female actor, while Zeng Junsheng was a female singer. "The Embroidered Rug" and "The Jade Hairpin" were both very good."
Dou Zhao turned around and smiled at the wives, saying, "What do you want to hear later?"
Someone said: "It's time to listen to "The Embroidered Rules".
Some people also said: "Let's listen to "The Jade Hairpin"! It's more interesting than "The Countryside Records"."
大家热烈地讨论起剧目来.
Mrs. Hu's eyes turned and she followed everyone to discuss what to do later, and exposed the matter.
Jiang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Xu supported Dou Zhao and sat down under the corridor of the water pavilion.
The nanny who was welcoming the guests came to invite the guests to make a show.
Ruo Zhu walked in quickly and whispered in Dou Zhao's ear: "Madam, the manager in the front yard just came to pass the message, saying that Princess Ningde and the old lady were both old and could not withstand the noise, so she sent Grandma Lu to have a wedding banquet."
窦昭讶然.
Unexpectedly, Princess Ningde and Mrs. Lu would express their position clearly in this way.
她微微颔首.
I saw the welcome nanny leading Grandma Lu over.
窦昭迎了上去.
Grandma Lu smiled bitterly and said, "Don't take it to heart. It's really absurd that the Duke of the State did this time. Everyone feels that they are depreciating themselves when they come."
Dou Zhao smiled and said, "If our Yuan Ge'er doesn't come when he drinks for 100 days, I will be angry."
Grandma Lu smiled and said, "Who dares not come from Brother Yuan'er's 100-day wine? Don't worry, if the two old people think they are quarrel, I will fight and fight them!"
这当然是玩笑话.
Grandma Lu is sure that if Song Han is the concubine's son Princess Ningde and Mrs. Lu may not be so unwilling to give Song Yichun face.
窦昭挽着陆大奶奶在水榭坐定.
There were people coming from the family houses where Yan'an Marquis Mansion, Changxing Marquis Mansion and other people who usually interacted with the Duke of England, but none of them came from the second daughter-in-law, grandmother, prince's wife, and eldest wife.
窦昭都觉得脸上无光了.
When we were using the dinner, the situation became even more awkward - the whole flower hall was only seven or eight tables of guests, and the aunt and grandmother of the Houfu family were not so deserted.
窦昭只叹气.
The scholars and Mrs. Bo also saw some clues, and they all buried their heads in their meals, without saying a word.
Because the Miao family was in Daxing, the Song family sent out sedan chairs before dawn. Mrs. Song and Mrs. Li, the Quanfu people at Song Han’s wedding, also set off with the sedan chair early in the morning.
用了晚宴,大家一起去了新房.
The new house is a small courtyard with two or three rooms, and the layout is very elegant. Part of the bride's dowry was piled up in the warehouse behind, and part of it has been furnished, and was watched by two dowry maids and two dowry nannies from the Miao family.
Everyone looked at the bride's dowry. Although the quilt was carved with silk, the color and color were from ten years ago. Although the teacup looked novel, it was not produced in the official kiln and was very cheap. As for the feather duster, the velvet fell off as soon as it touched, and the tin basin was so light that it couldn't be handled. The jade bonsai looked no luster, like a stone...
众人不免露出几分鄙夷来.
There was the inflexible eh, "Isn't it Yu Ci's marriage? Why are you all accompanying these things?"
就有人猛地拉那人的衣袖.
那人忙闭了嘴.
苗家的两个丫鬟婆子臊得脸色绯红.
The eldest wife of the Song family had a red face. She hurriedly invited everyone to the east wing next to the new house for tea.
众人默不作声地去了东厢房.
Mrs. Song enthusiastically invited everyone to eat fruit melons, and then asked the mountain chief of Jinxiu Academy: "Where is your academy open? I wonder if you will accept children?"
The mountain leader drank tea gracefully and said slowly: "The academy is open in the Sun Family Hutong next to the Yaowang Temple outside the city, and only seven or eight-year-old children..."
When everyone heard them chatting, Mrs. Hu came to Dou Zhao and chuckled softly: "Madam, don't bother me not to be slight and serious about my words. I really feel pity when I see Miss Cousin. I also think that my cousin, who has just become a widower, is just young this year, has a handsome talent, and has a few acres of land at home. She passed the scholar's fame at the age of sixteen. The lady in front of me did not leave any children, and only lived with her widowed mother, so she wanted to give the cousin of the mansion a red line, so she took the initiative to ask."
She said, looking at Dou Zhao's expression with a careful look.
Dou Zhao was very surprised and felt that Mrs. Hu was so frivolous and frivolous. It was obvious that her face was sincere, and that family was quite good. She couldn't help but hesitate and said, "We have to discuss this matter with our prince. If that family is really interested, you may not be careful to put the person's name, family situation, etc. on me, so I can show it to the prince."
胡太太没想到事情会这么的顺利.
With her status, if she was not Song Han, she would not have thought of stepping into the gate of the Duke of England's mansion. She then went all out and took this dangerous move.
She nodded happily and accompanied her to the west wing opposite her.
If they can marry the eldest daughter of the British Duke's Mansion who was rumored to have their bags dropped, let alone her cousin, Li Yu jumped over the dragon gate, even they would benefit from it.
She thought carefully about what she wanted to say before she finished writing.
Dou Zhao asked Ruotong to put away the paper and said, "We will contact you later."
Mrs. Hu looked at Jiang Yan, who was so accustomed to listening to the opera, and nodded quickly.
酉时差一刻钟,迎亲的花轿进了府.
跨火盆,拜堂,入洞房,掀了盖头.
新娘子的容颜让大家发出一阵赞叹.
Miao Ansu quickly glanced at Song Han and found that the groom was quite handsome, and the eyes of her looking at her were full of surprise. This greatly satisfied her vanity and made her look shyly.
宋翰没想到新娘子这么漂亮.
His heart suddenly shook for a moment, and when Quanfuren brought him a glass of wine, his movements became gentle.
Miao Ansu felt Song Han’s changes, and felt very proud and courageous. As soon as Song Han walked out of the new house, her eyes swept around the women.
Except for a young woman in silver-red and more amateurs, she looked dignified and beautiful and elegant, and was a lady from a wealthy family, the rest were all women over thirty years old.
苗安素不由撇了撇嘴.
Didn’t that Dou’s family have the national beauty and awesomeness? In her opinion, it was very ordinary.
It can be seen that Dou is just someone who is lifted up.
She winked at Ji Hong, the close-fitting maid, and signaled her to give her a reward to the little maid who helped her pour tea.
Ji Hong's face turned red and white, but she stood still.
苗安素心中不悦.
丫鬟却依旧恭敬地退了下去.
Mrs. Song San thought of the face of the Miao family asking for red envelopes when she went to marry, and thought that after today, she would have nothing to do. She was eager to hand over the wrong thing immediately, so she was in the mood to say anything to Miao Ansu. Mrs. Li was determined to introduce the people in the house to Miao Suan, but she didn't even recognize it herself, so how could she introduce it to Miao Suan?
Everyone joked about Miao Ansu with one sentence at a time.
Miao Ansu remembered her mother's words in a firm way, and pretended that she could not hear anything others said, and just smiled.
Mrs. Hu praised Miao Ansu for being calm and composed.
A little maid walked in and said with a smile: "Mrs. It's getting late. Several wives and grandmas are going to go home. She will send a few wives and grandmas back first."
Fortunately, I didn't break my promise!
