The Landlord And His Wife - Chapter 193
After listening to Xing Rongrong’s words, no one answered for a while, because what she said was really unprofessional. Shicheng is from Fengxian County, and Shicheng’s father is even from Peach Blossom Village, which is under the jurisdiction of Fengxian County. She demoted Fengxian County and lifted Hanzhong Mansion like this, isn’t it really in the face of Shicheng’s mother and her face!
Shi Chengniang is still an elder!
Shi Chengniang’s face was already ugly, she snorted and turned her head away.
After Xing Rongrong finished speaking, she didn’t feel that there was anything wrong, until Shi Chengniang made a face, and then she felt that she might not fit well, pursed her mouth and did not speak, and her face was still full of The stock is stubborn, as if his words must not be taken back.
Liu Xuer shook her head, knowing that Shicheng would definitely not be able to speak at this time, otherwise it would be stingy to quarrel with a girl, just to curry favor with her future mother-in-law, she should also say a few words.
Therefore, he smiled and said: “Fengxian is not a small place. It was very rich in the Tang Dynasty. It was an important town on the commercial road from Chang’an to Chengdu. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, it was defeated because of the war. Before the Holy Ancestor, this place was all Fengzhou, and the Holy Ancestor changed it into a county. In recent years, the country has been peaceful and peaceful, and the imperial court has begun to pay attention to business in foreign cities. This business road is also booming now. Fengxian County has changed in recent years. It’s huge.”
Xing Rongrong’s face was not looking good when she was talking. Obviously, she thought that Liu Xuer was deliberately making up for it when she was embarrassed! I wanted to refute it, but she was just a boudoir girl, and knowing a few words was already a great thing, not to mention such geographic knowledge! She didn’t understand at all, even if she wanted to refute, she couldn’t refute it.
Liu Xuer’s remarks really made her mother-in-law Shi Chengniang feel particularly comfortable, and she also looked at Liu Xuer in a different way. I didn’t expect her daughter-in-law to know so much! Of course it was taught by my son. Shi Chengniang naturally attributed this to her son, but she was also very happy, and nodded with a smile: “Feng County has changed a lot in recent years. In the past, there were only two or three streets, but now there are many shops everywhere. All.”
Shi Cheng looked at Catkins and smiled.
“Whether Fengxian is a small place, it can be seen from the scale of the entire city that this city is not much smaller than Hanzhong Mansion. There are only four of them, but I can see the traces of the closed city gate.” Liu Xu’er continued to make up for Xing Rongrong with a smile.
Xing Rongrong turned his face to the other side.
Shi Chengniang got excited and felt that her future daughter-in-law really gave her a face, she knew so much! Just as I was about to ask a few questions, the maid came in to report that there was already a carriage going here on the way to the garden.
Tell me, and those jewelry, you also help to keep an eye on it. If most people dismiss it, it may be the wrong style. You also asked people to hurry up and tell me, I am here. Prepare!”
Liu Xuer nodded: “Understood, don’t worry!”
“Of course, as long as it doesn’t delay your business! The main thing is you are busy with your business.” Shicheng said with a smile.
Liu Xuer also laughed, Shicheng also knew that she had her own business, but businessmen always took advantage of all kinds of opportunities, which is also the true nature of businessmen, she is a businessman, so she understands Shicheng in particular , it can almost be said that the soul is connected.
Nodding her head and coming out, Shi Chengniang has already gone to the flower hall to wait, she is just outside the flower hall, just waiting for the maid to report back to see which family the person is coming, and then decide whether to personally Welcome out, or whoever goes out to welcome.
When the head came, the people who usually ordered were also doing business, and the county magistrate’s wife came behind, bringing their daughter, Shi Chengniang and Liu Xuer personally greeted them out, smiling Welcome to the flower hall, sit down and drink tea.
Accompanied by Shi Chengniang, Liu Xuer was talking here for a while, when she heard the maid come in and report that the eldest young lady and the eldest lady of the Hanlin Mansion are here.
Liu Xuer sued and went out to meet her in person.
In order to ensure that Song Yao was invited, Shi Cheng also thought of a way. On the invitation card to the Song family, it was written that he heard that the eldest Miss Song was known for her talent, so he respectfully invited the eldest Miss Song. Two more elegant aliases are given to the two pieces of Zhendian jewelry.
Liu Xuer walked to the gate of the courtyard, just as the carriage stopped at the door, two women got off the car, the woman in front was a woman, twenty-four or five years old, if Liu Xuer didn’t remember If it’s wrong, this person should be the one who bought his own three pairs of cotton hand covers nearly ten years ago.
The woman who came down from the back was wearing a freshwater blue dress with a brocade pattern, with cut shoulders and a slender waist.
Liu Xuer stepped forward to greet her with a smile, the eldest young lady only returned a half-salutation, but Song Yao hurriedly returned the gift, and after she got up, her face flushed.
The catkins invited them into the garden. Obviously, Song Yao knew her identity, so she was naturally embarrassed to see her. Liu Xuer thought in her heart, she must pretend not to know, so as not to be noticed by her, the reason why she is busy is to see her, how embarrassing!
At this time, Song Yao was thinking, so this is Liu Lin’s sister? Unexpectedly… She was such a delicate and dignified girl. Liu Lin always said that she was a businessman, so that he always thought in his mind that his sister must be vulgar…
Thinking of this, I became more and more embarrassed, and I also apologized to Liu Xuer, so Liu Xuer came up and led the way with a smile, Song Yao took the initiative to smile and said: “Now it’s getting more and more clean up here. The garden is over, and bamboo is still planted along the road. When I lived in the past, I felt that the bamboo was in the way, so I cut it down.”
Liu Xuer smiled and raised her eyebrows: “Really, yes, only in a place that is a scene, can you plant these, otherwise it will really get in the way, and it is inconvenient to cover half of the road.”
Song Yao smiled and nodded: “I didn’t expect you to hold an elegant banquet here. Originally, no one came here in summer. It’s not bad, it doesn’t have a scenery.”
Liu Xuer smiled and said, “It’s mainly because there is no other place suitable.”
Song Yao did not expect her to be so frank, looked at her in surprise, and smiled. I thought to myself, I really have a temperament like Liu Lin.
It was because I had a chance to get in touch with the top female relatives of Fengxian County.
Gradually, everyone who sent invitations came. Shicheng’s status in Fengxian is not what it was a few years ago, and now he is also a prominent figure in the business circle. Although he is young, his reputation has already overshadowed some old businessmen, and he belongs to a member of the powerful. What’s more, he has also been admitted to a scholar, and his future is limitless.
The county magistrate values the Shi family as well as the Liu family, who has three talents in one breath. The county magistrate’s wife is naturally very affectionate to Shi Chengniang and Liu Xuer, and the county magistrate’s wife looks at the Shi family in a different way, and chatting with Shi Chengniang has also played a good driving role. Again and again, Liu Xuer was worried that she would live in the cold, but she didn’t show up at all.
Older women will be in the flower hall, greeted by Shi Chengniang, and some younger ones are willing to stroll in the garden, accompanied by catkins.
Song Yao, she kept watching. When she entered the door, she had already seen the jewelry that the eldest grandmother was wearing, as well as the gold-laden silk inlaid sapphire hollow double peony and phoenix hairpin, a golden phoenix hairpin with wings, and a bracelet with a bead and a gold hook on her hand. On Song Yao’s side, he only wore a twisted silk silver hairpin, a bracelet on his wrist, and even a pine carved bracelet.
And I also discovered that, sure enough, the eldest young lady basically ignored Song Yao. Not only did she ignore it, but after seeing a woman of the same age who seemed to be close to the eldest grandma, the eldest grandma He stopped talking enthusiastically, and while talking, he looked at Song Yao with a strange look, and even gave a sneaky pointer.
Liu Xuer shook her head, this is why Shicheng said that some female family members of big families are hypocritical, since she knows that it is wrong to point to others, but she can’t help but secretly point it, when there are many people She pretends to be dignified and elegant, and secretly speaks ill of others to her best friend, but she can say anything.
This eldest and young grandma is also ridiculous. She tells others about her sister-in-law’s gossip, does she look good on her face? This is obviously a personal vendetta! Wanting to use this method to ruin Song Yao’s reputation.
Liu Xuer was so angry that she wanted to give this eldest grandmother some color, and by the way, she raised Song Yao’s thoughts. It’s just that he is the fiancee of a businessman, I don’t know if he can lift Song Yao, but he can still do it if he takes care of the eldest young mistress.
Liu Xuer was thinking here, but she didn’t think of anything yet. Two or three young ladies of fifteen or six came to her side, politely calling her Miss Liu, intending to chat with her After a while, Liu Xuer could only deal with these young ladies first.
Nowadays, there are three talents in Liu Xuer’s family, and they are not very old, especially Liu Senman is only eleven years old. Therefore, as long as they are a little farsighted, they can feel that the Liu family will be rich and noble in the future. , Three scholars, there will always be admitted to the Juren, or even the jinshi! What’s more, that son-in-law Shi Cheng is also a new talent, a rich and powerful talent.
Therefore, most of the people who came today really didn’t say they were particularly disdainful of her! These young ladies are used to measuring form, and when they go out, their family members must also teach them.
If there are still people who look down on her a bit high, then there is only the eldest young lady, the eldest young lady is from a famous family, and the Hanlin mansion is also a noble, and the eldest young lady is infected with the problem of aloofness Also normal.
