in charge

Look at the beauty under the plum lamp.

Tingting curled up with a group of women.The one at the front, jo, has a small figure, a red skirt with red clouds stacked on top of clouds, and a pair of silver and blue carps with a pair of lapels.The hair is in a fan bun, the hairpin is emerald and pearly, and the waist is hung with gold and jade.

Yue'er put on new makeup on her face, and her cheeks were blush.His facial features are like his father's, and he is more slender and beautiful, not to mention the fish and the wild goose, but he is a beautiful woman.And after entering, she lowered her gaze to the ground, straightened her waist and lowered her hands, maintaining the same pace all the time, walking her skirts so that the waves depended on each other, walking like a soft branch.But behind her, the wives of Leng Liu, Lu Man and the others looked much more ordinary, with more than rich clothes but not enough refinement, and their expressions were too reserved.

Mo Zi originally thought that Fu Tian's daughter should be a chivalrous woman, full of vigor and heroism, but she didn't expect to be as demure as a lady from a famous family.It matches the style of Xu Jiu's boat gang, one is hard and the other is soft,

Every movement and stillness is to be afraid of benefiting.

Mrs. Fu approached, knelt softly and said, "Master Fu, present your respects to your lord."

When she came like this, all the maidservants behind her knelt down and saluted one after another.

Yuan Cheng raised his palm, "Ladies, please rise up. Today, Yuan Mou invites you in the name of his brothers. It is really a family banquet and there is no need to be formal. I just reminded my third brother that all the wives should sit at the same table with your husband. Please take a seat, and we will talk." Some household matters, okay?" After finishing speaking, he asked someone to remove the seats in the west corner, and put more cups and plates on Xu Jiu's table.

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, a little at a loss.The etiquette of the Great Zhou Dynasty was quite strict, and many men and women sat in separate seats outside.Although the rules in Chuanbangzi are loose, but at this time in the official family, their identities are different, even if the other party talks about a family banquet, they can't be polite and listen to the truth, even if the other party is really sincere.

Mrs. Fu took the lead and stood up again, "Thank you for your love, sir. Since this is the case, Minfu will be bold."

At that moment, she said to all the fu, "Since all the sister-in-laws have said so, it is a family banquet. It is only human nature to sit with your husband at the family banquet. Sister-in-laws, take your seats quickly so as not to miss the opening of the banquet."

Although the Fu people are older than the Fu family, they seem to look forward to the Fu family.This is naturally closely related to Fu's background and Xu Jiu's status.So, each family took the maids to sit at the husband's table.

Mrs. Fu was still standing in the hall, and called the girl accompanying her to bring the jug and cup, "My lord, please allow Minfu to pour a glass of wine, in order to thank you for your kindness to my husband and wife."

Everyone looked at Lu admiringly, thinking that this Fu acts upright and generous, is young, advances and retreats well, leads the group of Fu, and wins people's hearts for her husband.

"Sister-in-law is very polite. Master Jiuyi and Bo Yuntian have great ambitions. It is a blessing for Yuan to get to know Master Jiu. It is not to say that they help each other, but they are good brothers who enjoy chatting and drinking from all over the world." In terms of speaking skills, Yuan Cheng even more so Superior.Turning the high and low in Fu's dialect into equal and intersecting, suddenly a lot closer. "However, Mrs. Sister-in-law's wine, Yuanmou still wants to drink it. Congratulations to the two of you on the white-headed agreement, Qin Jin's good friend Hu Kai will always be here, and your children and grandchildren will be blessed."

Fu thanked her with a smile, knelt down opposite Yuan Cheng, and poured wine with both hands to toast.

After Yuan Cheng finished drinking, Fu looked at Mo Zi for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is Brother Mo?"

Mo Zi didn't know how Fu Shi recognized her, so she nodded yes.Because she was younger than Xu Jiu, and she was not an official, she stood up and bowed, "Sow to Sister-in-law Jiu."

Mrs. Fu came forward with a drink, "Brother Mo, my wife has heard about it for a long time, and my father is full of praise for you. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I realize that what I said is not exaggerated, but it is not as good as it is. The daughter's family is like a dignified husband. , even a robe can't hide Furonghu's face. Really, beauty is also handsome.

I also invite Brother Mo to drink this cup, my wife may bother you to work too much in the future, I want to learn from you, so you must not be impatient with my wife. "

After hearing Fu Shi's words, the other wives were immediately surprised and contemptuous.Surprised that Mo Zi is a woman, she despises that women are mixed with men, and their names are unclear.

Mo Zi saw it, but she didn't care, she smiled, said she didn't dare to take it seriously, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Mrs. Fu returned a smile, took the lead, and went to another table to toast.

Mo Zi guessed that Mrs. Fu might know that Xu Jiu had proposed to her, although she couldn't see it on the surface, but her words seemed to be a little jealous.However, maybe I think too much.

As the new husband, Mrs. Fu paid a round of respects, and sat back beside Xu Jiu, and the banquet really started.

She sat upright, not far or close to her husband, poured out the cup when it was empty, refilled the bowl when it was empty, removed the bones from the fish, and was as careful as a hair.Except for a few words with his maid, she had no verbal communication with Xu Jiu.Only when I heard him chatting with everyone and laughing heartily, did I smile slightly.She hardly ate anything, and was so busy looking after her husband that she had no time for herself.

Her performance like this made everyone secretly envy Xu Jiuyi again.Mo Zi, who was sitting across from her, saw it most clearly, and thought that a good wife is like this, and Xu Jiu is really lucky.

Yuan Cheng said they were talking about family affairs, but a man, who would gossip about what is going on in the family?After talking for a while, he unknowingly turned to state affairs, and the more he chatted, the more emotional he became, especially he was very concerned about Daqiu's movements.

Mo Zi doesn't talk about current affairs in front of people, not because of her daughter, but because she has the concept of a thousand years later, fearing that if she is not careful, she will be bombarded by the four.As for Yuan Cheng, he is an outlier who can accept everything, so it's hard to count.Therefore, she deliberately restrained herself, drank and ate vegetables, nodded and shook her head with her ears pricked up, and participated in a low-key manner.

"Brother Mo is usually like a starling, so why don't you talk so little today?" But feeling uneasy, Xu Jiu insisted on her talking.

Although she is a good brother worthy of friendship in the eyes of men, she is a frivolous girl who can't be avoided in the eyes of women. She is too independent and difficult to classify.Mo Zi accepted the disdainful smiles of the women, and the righteous smiles of the men, and scolded Xu Jiu in her heart for looking for trouble.Say she looks like a starling?His voice is so much louder than hers!

"I think Brother Mo thinks we're not trustworthy. He talked about family affairs, but also about state affairs, to make all the ladies here interesting, so he didn't bother to open his mouth." He sneered at Mo Zi's repulsion in his heart, with a gentle face, "I just heard that the wives are fond of the hu lamp in a certain mansion of Yuan, if you like it, you can take it off yourself."

When he picked up this topic, everyone praised Hu Deng.Some fu mentioned guessing lantern riddles and drinking fine wine, no matter men or women, it was really lively and the atmosphere was harmonious.And Yuan Cheng's relief for Mo Zi also relieved her from being hostile.

When the banquet was over and everyone was waiting for tea, Mrs. Fu suddenly said, "Your Excellency is so funny, gentle and courteous, gentle and humble, taking care of us female guests like this."

After hearing those adjectives, Mo Zi immediately took a closer look at Yuan Cheng.Is it that good?Besides, Mrs. Fu behaved so virtuously tonight, wouldn't it be wrong to praise a single man in front of her husband?

Yuan Cheng smiled with dignity, "Sister-in-law Xie thinks highly of Yuan so much."

"It's just" Fu sighed, "My lord treats me like my own family. I don't know if I should say something or not?"

It turns out there is something else to say.

"Sister-in-law, please tell me." Yuan Cheng had already let her boast like this, so he couldn't ruin his reputation.

"Your Excellency is so gorgeous, but there is Xie Yuhu by your side. It's a pity that even our sisters are worried for Your Excellency. Otherwise, today's banquet with Mrs. Yuan's company will be as perfect as the moon rising in the sky." Fu also asked others The table is and is not.

Everyone hurriedly agreed.

Xu Jiu was taken aback, and Leng Liu and Lu Man didn't know what it meant.

"Sister-in-law's words are due to Yuan's lack of care." Yuan Cheng's eyes circled around the scene, and finally stopped on Mo Zi's face, with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Mo Zi was vigilant, this person knew clearly, but deliberately labeled Fu Shi.

As expected, Mrs. Fu made him panic, stood up and bent over, "My lord, Mrs. Fu doesn't mean that, and only sighs how Mrs. Fu stays with wives and concubines. There is a person in Mrs. Fu's heart, who has a beautiful appearance and a straightforward personality. You are a lady, but if you become a concubine with an adult, it can be a good relationship."

What is she saying?At the end of Yuancheng, the peach hu was opened.commit a crime?Lucky?Mo Zi braced her chin and squinted her eyes.

Yuan Cheng smiled without saying a word.

This gave Fu the courage to go on, "This lady has also met, and it was me who helped Zhongxiang's eleventh sister."

Xu Jiu Lengliu's expression changed.

Xu Jiu even said in a deep voice, "Shut up, Fu!" The Fu Niang who seemed to regard her husband as the sky just now disappeared, and was replaced by Fu Tian's daughter. She took a deep breath, looked at Xu Jiu firmly, and said, "Eleventh Sister! Kneeling outside the Yuan Mansion for three days, passers-by know that she is interested in Lord Yuan. No matter what happened in the past, she is now a family member, and only the brothers in the gang can rely on. As brothers and sisters in her gang, you and I, how can we look at her Don't stand up for her because of the damage to her reputation?"

Xu Jiu let his wife's words get blocked, and in terms of loyalty, he couldn't refute.

Mo Zi blinked.Xiang Shiyi knelt at the gate of Yuan Mansion for three days?That's why Yuan Cheng didn't let her go through the main entrance!Do they all think she came early and are afraid that she will run into him?

Satisfied to see that her husband did not object, Mrs. Fu said to Yuan Cheng, "Ms. Fu has just entered Xu's house. She is young and doesn't know much about the affairs of the gang. To be honest, when Eleventh Sister told me about this, I I didn't know what to do. However, the girl knelt in front of the lord's door for three days because of the decision of her heart, which made her have the audacity to say this. The lord has not yet married a wife, and the fu knows that the lord has a noble status, and the first wife will be famous in the future. I didn't dare to be greedy, so I only asked for a concubine for Eleventh Sister. Although we are people in the Jianghu, Eleventh Sister is innocent and sincere to adults. If you don’t lose to any lady from a wealthy family, you will also become a good companion for adults. Besides, adults and our ninth master are like brothers. If we can get married, we will be a real family from now on. We will definitely help each other with all our strength. This family relationship is really a happy event that has the best of both worlds. The wife is well aware of the abruptness of this move, and she is worried, but she really can't bear to see the eleventh sister feel heartbroken, and sees adults as a real gentleman. It is true that she can accept my sister. Her luck."

Everyone looked at Yuan Cheng.

For happy events, he has to make the final decision. @.
