Chapter 291

The people who got the post, didn't they prepare gifts early and bring their daughters or nieces and nieces over?

Don't look at the many people who talk about worrying about the health of Mrs. Huguo, but when they meet Xiangming and Dongmei who are greeted by the door, they also show a worried look, but they don't know what they think in their hearts.

You know, as long as Mrs. Hu Guogong does not go for a day, their daughter may not be able to enter the gate of Hu Guogong Mansion.

Among them, the most conspicuous one is the old lady of An Guogong's family.Speaking of which, Duke Ang's family is really a loyal family. Duke Ang died on the battlefield, and all three of his sons were shrouded in horse leather and died for the country. Only the old lady and a widow remained.Fortunately, there are several sisters and two grandchildren in the family, and they finally left a bloodline.

But it is also because of this, although no one in the Anguo government is an official in the court, the former emperor still respects him a little bit.

The old lady got out of the carriage and took several granddaughters all the way into the Duke Protector's Mansion.And the surroundings are naturally surrounded by many orders and noble ladies.Even if it is to show face to the dead An Guogong, no one will rely on his own status as a husband at this time. Even the wives of the clan are just walking side by side with An Guogong and his wife, and have not reached go ahead.

Xiang Ming and Dong Mei were both taken aback when they saw the movement outside.My wife doesn't seem to have sent someone to send a post to the mansion of Duke Anguo.According to what my wife said, the most difficult thing to get rid of is a widow. It would be better if people are reasonable, but if they are irrational, they will be a coquettish person.

But now that they took the initiative to come to the door, they naturally have no reason not to welcome them.Thinking of this, Xiangming beckoned a little maid who was following behind to go to the back to clarify with his wife, and then brought Dongmei to meet the door in person.

After entering Duke Huguo's Mansion, looking at the pavilions, pavilions and waterside corridors in the mansion, many people couldn't help but be speechless. It really is a mansion bestowed by the former emperor, it is really spacious and rich.I just saw that Xu Shi had remodeled it later, and even divided the Haoduanduan house, which was supposed to be a magnificent, extravagant and wealthy house. Although it was more compact, it was a bit petty.

But even though they were visiting for the first time and knew some etiquette, even though they were a little surprised in their hearts, they still smiled and did not show any dislike or disgust on their faces.

As for the old lady of An Guogong's mansion, now she is being supported by her three granddaughters, she will naturally get Kongtong's other wives around her to preach and praise her granddaughter.In the other boudoirs, the lady who had long admired Duke Hu, when she said that her granddaughter had not yet settled on a suitable marriage, she showed a bit of jealousy and envy.

Who doesn't know that An Guogong is a military general, if he wants to talk about marriage for his granddaughter, he will never abandon the mantle of a military general and marry a civil official.If Mrs. Hu Guogong is really bad, then among the people who got the post to gather together, the ladies of An Guogong's mansion may have the best chance.
If Mrs. Hu Guogong let go, and Hu Guogong also intends to continue, as long as Mrs. An Guogong and Mrs. An ask the emperor, there is a great chance of success.

And at this time, Lin Baozhu also got the news, dressed up refreshingly and let her son come out in the arms.If she was not pretty enough when she was pregnant with Sheng Jin, then since she was pregnant with the current child, Lin Baozhu herself felt that her face was much more beautiful.

Right now, she is using the gouache that Zhang Ji specially developed for her, which makes her skin appear crystal clear, and her eyes are as gentle as autumn water but still clear.Coupled with a brand-new costume that was presented in the palace, it completely supported her demeanor and made her more elegant and dignified.

Now, seeing a real person, who would dare to say that Mrs. Hu Guogong is a petty merchant girl?

The reason why Lin Baozhu held a banquet today was to stop the speculation and attempts of outsiders.Therefore, I have long been thinking about how to dress to be radiant and make people feel ashamed.She is the core of modern people, supported by Zhang Ji's entire rouge shop specializing in women's business, if it is really comparable, who can have her capital?
And Jin Ruo, who was behind her, didn't lose her aura at all, just looking at her, she exuded the nobility of a concubine lady.Considering that the protector of the country, the first lady, can handle it freely in the palace, and can //favor// be humiliated by the empress dowager and the empress dowager's gifts, and has a certain amount of advance and retreat. Who would dare to say that Lin Baozhu is a merchant, At that time, a woman with long hair and short eyelids?
It is said that the young ladies and young masters in her family were all raised by her personally.How can I be a simple person who can raise children with such a magnanimity?

So, just now, many wives who were enthusiastically thinking about promoting their own daughters or nieces and nieces have given up their minds now.Forget it, talk to other wives later, maybe you can find a good marriage.I heard that the second son of the Hou family is going to talk about marriage in the near future, and I don't know if there is one.

Lin Baozhu and Mrs. An Guogong are the same order, but after all, Mrs. An Guogong and Mrs. Anguo are old, and both husband and son have meritorious service, and the merits are in the community, so she didn't take it seriously, and stepped forward slightly. Fuli.

Seeing this, the old lady felt a little satisfied in her heart, she naturally smiled and reached out to support her.Then he said: "I heard that you were ill, but I only found out when I saw you today. It turns out that you are happy. It is really gratifying. It is the top priority for a woman to spread branches and leaves for the family. It's been more than two years, but the family only has one son, so it's really deserted."

Lin Baozhu felt a little disgusted when she heard the voiced words, but she couldn't help it. Instead, she said with a smile: "Lady Lao Madam has made a note. Before, I thought that Madam lived in secluded places, so I don't know much about the people in the capital city. It's something about the house. I met you today, and I realized that the rumors are just rumors. I think the old lady is also well-informed, and the affairs of our house are very clear."

Lin Baozhu smiled sincerely, making it difficult to see whether it was intentional or unintentional.However, her words really made many people present murmur.Some of them even looked at the old lady with changed eyes. Who doesn't know that Mrs. Anguo likes to take Joe the most?Every day, it is as if the whole Dazhou owes her, even if she is a first-class wife, it is good to be respected, if anyone makes a presumptuous sentence in front of her, she will have to be reprimanded.

Now, after listening to Lin Baozhu's words, doesn't it seem like he has vented his anger on many people?Especially those who look down on Mrs. Anguo and Mrs. Anguo who rely on the old to sell the old, and secretly think that the lofty feelings are all faked. If you can pay attention to the affairs of the back house of the mansion, can you have no other thoughts?
Mrs. An Guogong's old lady stopped, and looked at Lin Baozhu with sharp eyes and displeasure.However, she felt the granddaughter who was holding her arm move her fingers slightly, so she had to suppress the anger in her heart, continued to smirk as if she couldn't hear Lin Baozhu's thorny words, and walked to the garden where the guests were entertained.

When we arrived in the garden, "The Peony Pavilion" was babbling on the stage.Speaking of which, this is also a play that the lady of the Houzhai often reads when she gets together. It is about the woman Du Liniang who fell in love with the scholar Liu Mengmei in her dream, and died of depression after waking up from the dream.Then three years later, the ghost of Du Liniang met Liu Mengmei, came back to life because of love, and married Liu.In the end, Liu won the first prize in the exam, and the two fell in love and reunited for a lifetime.

But he didn't want to wait until the old lady of An Guo Gong's mansion was seated, enjoying the compliments of everyone and being served by her granddaughter, she couldn't help shaking her head and chasing Lin Baozhu who was in the seat and said: "This drama is not good, but I think "The Story of the Pipa" is better. For the better."

The "Pipa Xing" is about Cai Bojie who went to Beijing to take the exam, and entered the residence of Prime Minister Zhu Niu after high school.But at this time, his hometown was hit by a disaster, and his parents starved to death. His wife Zhao Wuniang sold her long hair to bury her parents-in-law, and then went to Beijing to find her husband with a pipa on her back.After entering the capital, it was only when he found his husband that he found out that he was married again. Thanks to Ms. Niu's understanding, she took Zhao Wuniang into the mansion, and after that, the husband and wife lived in harmony.

Lin Baozhu didn't know much about operas in the early days, but in this era, there are very few entertainment items, so she followed Xiang Ming and the others to read scripts and listen to operas from time to time.It just so happened that she had actually seen these dramas that were often used to be performed a few times.

If now, Lin Baozhu still can't understand what the old lady of An Guogong's mansion meant, then she will have lived two lives in vain.The affectionate person came uninvited, and he really came to sell his granddaughter.

What she originally planned was her glamorous appearance, coupled with her husband's several vows of loyalty, those who have wishful thinking should stop thinking about it.Moreover, when she walked all the way to the garden, she did see that many people were disappointed, and then she took the daughter of the family to talk to the lady next to her.

But I didn't expect that Mrs. An Guogong, who is over seventy years old, would not let her granddaughter serve her husband with her.It's really not about selling old people.
"If the old lady is willing to listen to "Pipa Xing", then just ask someone to change the show." Lin Baozhu sat on the back of the chair, took the jujube tea handed over by Xiangming, smiled and told people to sing. "Pipa Xing".As for the meaning of the old lady's words, she just pretended not to catch it.

Mrs. An Guogong saw Lin Baozhu's smiling and earnest expression gradually cooling down, and when talking to her, she also began to be neither cold nor cold.Even, after accepting the pretext of having tea, he turned his head and started talking to someone else, and instead treated her coldly.How can she be at ease?She has lived her whole life, even if she entered the palace to meet the empress dowager, she has never been treated coldly, even if she wanted to talk, the nobleman would ask someone to move a chair and stool to let her sit down first.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help snorting, and said in an unhappy tone: "A woman should keep her own place. After all, the Protector is an important minister of the court. As a wife, you should know what to do and what not to do. If it is for some things in your hands Wouldn't it be ridiculous for money to lose the status of Duke Protector?"
