Chapter 131
Hearing that Zhen Tian said that she received a message from the county magistrate's wife, and that she would visit the mansion tomorrow, Yan Chen read the post, but didn't say anything, only told Zhen Tian to put away the phoenix hairpin and not be seen.
For Yan Chen's repeated reminders to herself, Zhen Tian is also a little speechless, how worried she is, anyway, she is also a person who starts her own business, how can she not even do such a small thing?
She never thought that this phoenix hairpin was a status symbol, so she naturally didn't know why Yan Chen reminded her not to be seen by the county magistrate's wife.
Although many people would call the county magistrate's wife the magistrate's wife, but because the county magistrate is only a seventh-rank, in fact her rank is only a seventh-rank child.
The county magistrate's wife, the Shen family, came from a side branch of the Shen family in the capital. Although it was only a side branch and a concubine, the education of the daughters of the big families was different.
So she is also a very well-behaved person. She and Chu Huaiyuan were also young couples. At that time, Chu Huaiyuan also had ambitions. Shen's father valued Chu Huaiyuan's talent.
So she married Shen to him, but although Chu Huaiyuan had some talents, his luck was not very good, and he kept filial piety when the elders in his family passed away one after another.
Shen also wasted time, and when Chu Huaiyuan was selected, the eldest daughter of the two was already ten years old. Originally, the mother was also from a big family, but as a result, this Miss Chu has been following her parents, living a poor life.
After Chu Huaiyuan went to Yu County to be the county magistrate, Ms. Chu also became a serious official daughter. In the past two years, she has been busy with her daughter's marriage.
The flower viewing party that Chang Qiao was invited to participate in before was held by Shen Shi for her daughter's blind date. That day, some teenagers from families that Shen Shi originally valued all came.
On the second day, Ms. Chu made an appointment with the eldest son of the county magistrate of Zou County. This is definitely a good match, and the post Shen sent to Zhen Tian this time was an excuse to value Zhen Tian's makeup skills.
But after Zhen Tian received the post, she didn't believe that Shen Shi really came to her for wedding makeup. It wasn't that she underestimated her own makeup skills, but that it didn't need to be decided so early.
Even if she doesn't have a wedding, it doesn't mean that Zhen Tian doesn't understand Dakang's wedding, three books and six rituals. Generally speaking, after young men and women get engaged, most of them will choose to hold the final wedding ceremony at least half a year later.
This is also an unwritten custom, in order to show the reluctance of the mother's family to her daughter, and also to let the man know that the daughter-in-law who is going to marry home is the beloved daughter of other people's family.
Some really feel sorry for their daughters, and even delay the wedding for more than a year.
Unless there is something wrong inside, it is basically impossible to say that you will get married immediately after getting engaged, even ordinary people in Qingshan Village will do this when they marry their daughters and wives.
Even though the county magistrate is of a lower rank, he will never be careless about this. Therefore, when Zhen Tian arrived at the back door of the county government office, she also had a few guesses in her mind.
Gently knocking on the door, a man's voice was heard, and the door opened.
The person who opened the door was a boy in Tsing Yi who was in his 20s. Seeing that it was Zhen Tian who was knocking on the door, he had a smile on his face, "But Lady Yan from Qingshan Village?"
Seeing Zhen Tian's nodding, the servant hurriedly invited Zhen Tian to come in, "Miss Yuliu came here early in the morning to wait, my lady, please come in!"
Fish fillet?Zhen Tian felt that the magistrate's wife probably was a foodie, so she even ate the maid's name.
When I entered the door, I saw that it was the little girl who sent me a post yesterday. Seeing Zhen Tian enter the door, the little girl politely saluted Zhen Tian again, "Miss Yan, the wife is waiting, please come with the servant girl!"
Zhen Tian also smiled and cupped her hands, "Miss Yuliu, you are welcome!"
Yuliu felt that something was a little weird, but she didn't say anything, and led Zhen Tian through the corridor of the outer courtyard and into the inner courtyard.
After entering the door, Zhen Tian saw that the area behind the county office is not very large, but the servants are well organized and perform their duties. From this, we can know that the mistress is a very well-behaved person.
Seeing Yuliu bringing people in, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl guarding the door hastily opened the curtain, and Zhen Tian went in without looking sideways.
Probably knowing that there are guests coming today, some big maids outside also gathered together, watching Zhen Tian secretly.
Zhen Tian's face was calm, but she didn't know what would happen to her after going through this experience today.
After entering the door, Zhen Tian saw a woman about 37 or [-] years old sitting in the seat directly in front of her. Beside her was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl and a ten-year-old girl.
"I've seen my wife!" Knowing that the sitting woman was the county magistrate's wife, Zhen Tian bowed slightly to salute.
Seeing Zhen Tian salute like this, Shen also said with a smile, "I've heard people mention Lady Yan's name before, seeing her today, it's better to see once than to hear a hundred times!"
Even so, she didn't mean to politely ask herself to get up, Zhen Tian didn't seem to know, she stood up straight, with a faint smile on her face.
"Thank you Madam for your praise, but it's just for saving face!"
The tone is humble, the attitude is modest, but the face is always confident.
Shen's complexion changed slightly, but she suppressed it quickly, she thought she was just an embroiderer, Chang Qiao told her before that this lady Yan was good at craftsmanship, capable, and a bit arrogant.
She didn't believe it at first, but seeing her today, she really lived up to her reputation!
Shen Shi thinks about Zhen Tian like this, but she doesn't know that Zhen Tian is still depressed. In this damn ancient time, everything is graded.
She has skills and abilities, but she can be rude to Chang Qiao and sarcastic to Yu Qiao, but she can face a dignified and classy wife like Shen Shi.
Even if she doesn't want to, she still has to bow down and salute!
I don't know if classmate Yan Chen's legs can still be good. Seeing that guy is still very good at studying, and he will be a champion in the future. She can also salute less.
Zhen Tian didn't know that Shen Shi, who was so sad for her today, regretted how many times she had done this.
In the future, she will only accept other people's kneeling, not the other way around.
"I heard that Mrs. Yan is good at embroidery, and she can also make rouge by herself. The little girl will get married in half a year. I wonder if I can invite Mrs. Yan to do makeup?"
After Shen's probing, she talked about other things, but she didn't continue to make things difficult because Zhen Tian stood up straight.
Listening to what she said, Zhen Tian also knew that Mrs. Chen was deliberately obliterating what happened just now, and she didn't say that she was doing it on purpose, so she also said
"Thank you Madam for being trustworthy. I will definitely make the most perfect makeup for Ms. Chu!"
It stands to reason that if Zhen Tian is called over, it is really just for this matter. Zhen Tian has already said so, and the next thing will not be so complicated.
But after Zhen Tian finished speaking, Shen did not continue the topic of makeup, but suddenly talked about something else.
