lucky star girl

Chapter 189 Quote
Although they had guessed for a long time, Dong Shu and Mrs. Xu still felt a little unbelievable that they would actually see the people who came here.

The old lady Xu is okay, she has experienced the prosperity of the Xu family, but Dong Shu is really scared.

She didn't expect so many people to come today.

Fortunately, Dong Shu's panic only lasted for a moment, and with the old lady Xu by her side, her absence was not noticed, otherwise, after today, there would definitely be some rumors in the capital.

After Dong Shu temporarily arranged the guests who came to the banquet, Xu Nuanwen also received the latest news and hurried over.

"I thought there would be more people, but not too many. I didn't expect so many people to come." There are too many people here, and it's not that the Xu family can't accommodate them, but they didn't plan to invite them. So many people come.

It's just that these families are more or less related to their in-laws, and some even come directly with their in-laws.

Seeing the embarrassing expressions of the in-laws, Dong Shu and the others couldn't just drive these people away.

Xu Nuanwen knew that her siblings were not sociable people, so she raised her hand and patted the back of Dong Shu's hand, comfortingly said: "Don't worry, these people are all after me, just leave it to me." With these words, Xu Nuanwen didn't wait for Dong Shu to open her mouth, and walked directly towards the hall where Xu's family accommodated the guests.

With the arrival of Xu Nuanwen, the originally quiet hall suddenly became lively.

Listening to the lively conversation in the hall, Dong Shu glanced at the old lady Xu beside her and said, "Mother, why don't you go in for a rest too. If there are more people, I will lead them to the hall."

As soon as Dong Shu finished speaking, Mrs. Xu looked at her and said with a smile: "Today, the largest living room of the Xu family may be full." After saying this, Mrs. Xu shook her head again and said, "Wait I will directly ask your sister to lead them to enjoy the flowers, and if you don’t want to go, you can stay in the hall and talk with me. You can tell the servants not to forget to bring tea and snacks in.”

Mrs. Xu knew that Dong Shu was still not very good at such occasions, so she handed over these matters to her.

As for the women who came with a purpose in the house, they were naturally reserved for their mother and daughter to entertain.

Dong Shu understood her mother-in-law's kindness, so naturally she would not refuse.

If there weren't so many people today, she might still be able to stay stable, but with so many people, and they all came with a purpose, she really didn't dare to have too much contact with these people.

Her mind is not enough to deal with these people.

The female family members who came to the Xu family were not surprised that Dong Shu did not come in to accompany her, but went out to prepare tea and snacks.

They just thought that they came here rashly, the Xu family hadn't prepared before, so Dong Shu could only rush to prepare for this meeting.

What's more, the main purpose of their coming to Xu's house today is Xu Nuanwen and Mrs. Xu. It really doesn't matter whether Dong Shu comes or not when these two are here.

Dong Shu didn't want to have too much contact with those people, so she stayed outside until she had nothing to do, and then went to the hall.

As soon as she arrived in the hall, she heard Xu Nuanwen looking at everyone and saying: "The Xu family's garden is well tidied up, and it will just happen to be warmer, can someone go for a walk in the garden with me?"

The future queen opened her mouth, and naturally many responded.

Except for a few older ladies who wanted to stay and talk to Mrs. Xu, the other ladies and girls all got up one after another and wanted to go for a walk in the garden with Xu Nuanwen.

Dong Shu heard this from outside the door, and hurriedly walked into the hall and said, "Am I late? Are the refreshments good for everyone?"

As soon as Dong Shu said this, Xu Nuanwen walked towards her with a smile, took her hand and said with a smile, "I have a brother and sister today, so how could the refreshments you prepared yourself be unpalatable?" Facing Dong Shu After Shu said this, Xu Nuanwen raised her eyes and glanced at the other wives and girls around her. After they all responded, she looked at Dong Shu and continued: "We were just talking about going to the garden. Are you busy with the meeting? If the siblings are free, it would be nice to take us for a walk."

In front of Dong Shu, Xu Nuanwen put herself in the position of a guest, in order to highlight Dong Shu's status as the new hostess of the Xu family.

Dong Shu also understood what Xu Nuanwen meant, and when she saw her voice falling, she quickly replied with a smile: "Look at what my sister said, the flowers in the garden were planted by my sister in the early years. I have enjoyed my sister's blessing. Now Just enjoy the flowers directly."

After saying this to Xu Nuanwen, Dong Shu said directly to the other wives and girls: "The garden in the mansion was taken care of by my sister before, everyone will look after it later, but you have to talk to my sister carefully, The coaxing sister is happy, and I will come and see Xu's garden more in the future."

As soon as Dong Shu said this, there were several laughters in the hall.

The juniors didn't dare to laugh even if they wanted to. The only ones who could laugh without fear were the old ladies who sat there motionless.

"Since you're going to the garden to enjoy the flowers, go there quickly. After viewing the flowers, you can eat some special food at home. That's how you didn't come in vain."

The old lady Xu sat at the head and said these words with a smile, but her words made the hearts of those thoughtful wives and girls tremble.

Does this mean that they are doomed to make this trip in vain?

No matter what, Xu Nuanwen finally took them to Xu's garden.

The Xu family has many gardens, but the largest garden in the backyard is reserved for entertaining guests.

Today the garden has been specially tidied up, and as soon as I walked in, I could smell the fragrance of chrysanthemums.

Those who have a purpose will talk around Xu Nuanwen, and those who are simply a guest will talk around Dong Shu.

Most of Dong Shu's people were relatives-in-law, such as Hu's mother, Zhang's wife, and Xu's wife.

Several people gathered together, followed by the girls at home. Due to their in-law relationship, the relationship between the girls is also good now. They chatted together, and their words were full of cheerful words from the youngest daughter.

As for the ladies walking in front, although they had their own thoughts in their hearts, when they spoke with Dong Shu, they didn't talk nonsense.

After a few people enjoyed the scenery, they began to talk about their children.

Among these wives, Dong Shu is the youngest. Although her seniority is the same, she and Xu Shiqiu have only Yuan Xi under their knees.

Speaking of Yuan Xi, although Dong Shu's words were irritated, there was joy in her brows.

"Now that Yuan Xi is getting bigger and bigger, I really can't coax her. She looks like she can't speak yet, but she is very smart. I really don't know how this child grows up, and I can't stand it. "

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Mrs. Xu's family answered immediately: "Then your family Yuan Xi is really very clever. My family was not so clever when they were her age." After saying this, the Xu family The madam smiled and continued: "Everyone says that my niece looks like a aunt. I heard that the fifth concubine was also praised by many people when she was young."

As soon as Mrs. Xu's words came out, Mrs. Zhang's nodded and said: "Extremely. Her aunt was well-known in the capital on Yuanxi, otherwise she would not have attracted the prince to go out of the palace frequently." After saying this, Mrs. Zhang also winked at Dong Shu and the others.

Dong Shu understood that Mrs. Zhang's family was talking about the fact that her brother-in-law often found various excuses to come out of the palace to meet her aunt after meeting her aunt by chance.

Although this matter has passed for many years, there are many people who know about it.

Zhang's family is brother-in-law's natal family, so they are naturally clear about this matter.

Mrs. Hu's family can't comment more on the fact that the fifth prince often came to Xu's house to look for Xu Nuanwen, so she could only say: "I think it makes sense to say that my niece is more like my aunt. The girls in our family , indeed somewhat like my aunt."

Dong Shu didn't know which generation the girls in Mrs. Hu's mouth belonged to, but according to Mrs. Hu's temperament, she must be thinking that it would be best to climb up to the daughter of the Hu family in the palace.

However, Dong Shu's goal today had been achieved, so she didn't delve into it further. After leading a few people forward for a certain distance, she saw Xu Yanzhu who was hidden in the dark ahead, faintly visible.

Seeing Xu Yanzhu, Dong Shu's footsteps immediately stopped, and her strange behavior quickly attracted the attention of the wives around her.

Everyone followed Dong Shu's line of sight, and when they saw Xu Yanzhu who was leaning against the corridor in front of them, they didn't know how to speak for a while.

Sensing that everyone's eyes were already on Xu Yanzhu, Dong Shu sighed a long time.
