There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 566
[Chapter 566, the storm]
in the capital because of the undercurrent of the war in northern Xinjiang, the Ningmen Mansion was not very calm.
At the beginning of April, Governor Guo’s wife quietly arrived at Ningmen Mansion. After tidying up the house, she planned to host a banquet for officials of Ningmen Mansion on April 20th.
“The wedding date has been agreed, and it will be next year.” When
Daohua came to the old lady Yan’s room, she just heard her mother talking about the marriage between her eldest brother and the second girl of the Han family. Seeing her grandmother and her mother beaming, She couldn’t help laughing too.
No matter what, the bride’s entrance is always expected and joyful.
Seeing Daohua, the old lady Yan beckoned her to sit beside her with a smile, took her hand and said happily, “You will have a sister-in-law next year, are you happy?” Daohua laughed a
little: “Grandmother, why am I happy? ” Ah, the one who should be happy is elder brother.”
Mrs. Li smiled and said, “Why, you are not happy for your elder brother?”
Daohua immediately said, “I am happy, of course I am happy.”
Soon, Sun, Wu, and Three other girls from the family arrived.
As soon as Mrs. Sun came, she said, “Sister-in-law, why did you ask us to come here? Is there someone else who is going to hold a banquet?”
Mrs. Li glanced at her, feeling a little tired.
The second sibling had too high a vision, and only stared at the girls of the fifth- and sixth-rank officials’ families, but such a family also had its own trade-offs. Although the Yan family had not yet separated, Wen Jie was also the master’s nephew, so he would not ignore him.
However, in the eyes of most people, the master has three sons under his knees, and the Yan family was born in farming and studying, and their foundation is not enough. Naturally, the family’s resources are only for their sons, and there are not many who can help their nephews.
On this point, each family knows in their hearts that getting married is a good marriage for both sexes. Others can’t see the value in the second room, and they don’t have the need to exchange interests, so they will naturally not agree to get married.
But for these, the second sibling has no self-awareness at all.
Mrs. Li sighed in her heart. Now that the second brother is back, I hope he can wake up. If he is like the second brother and sister, Wen Jie may have to wait to settle the marriage.
“There is a banquet at Governor Guo’s house.”
As he spoke, he took the invitation from Ping Tong and handed it to the old lady.
Daohua stretched out her head to look over, and said in surprise, “Governor Guo seldom holds banquets, and even if he does, he only entertains male guests because there is no hostess in the backyard. Why did you post a post for the female relatives this time?
” Madam took a sip of tea, and then said: “Governor Guo’s wife brought Miss Guo here.”
Dao Hua had already seen it on the invitation card, and her expression froze slightly.
Mrs. Sun asked curiously: “Governor Guo has been in Zhongzhou for several years, why did Mrs. Guo come here at this time?”
Mrs. Li shook her head: “Who knows.”
Yan Yile suddenly interrupted and asked: “Auntie, what How old is Miss Guo?”
Mrs. Li paused for a moment: “It should be about the same age as the little prince.”
Yan Yile glanced at Daohua and said with a smile: “Madam Guo brought Miss Guo to Zhongzhou, could it be for the sake of the little prince?” The prince is here?”
Mrs. Li’s expression changed, she thought to herself, it is really possible that this is the case.
Yan Yile continued to laugh and said: “The little prince is so close to Governor Guo, I think this girl Guo must be very special in his heart.” Saying that, she glanced at Daohua again.
“If you want to say that the little prince is really popular, a girl from the Jiang family came to Zhongzhou before, and once she arrived, she spread everywhere that she and the young prince are childhood sweethearts. I don’t know if the girl from the Guo family will spread the same remarks this time?
Daohua glanced at Yan Yile lightly, but said nothing .
Mrs. Li looked at Yan Yile with some dissatisfaction: “Yile, I don’t want to hear this a second time. If you can’t do it, then don’t even think about me taking you out as a guest in the future, so that you won’t be hurt at home. Bring disaster.”
The smile on Yan Yile’s face froze, she pursed her lips a little dissatisfied, looked at Yan Yihuan who was anxiously pulling her sleeve, she lowered her head and did not speak.
Mrs. Sun immediately apologized with a smile: “Sister-in-law, this child is quick-talking and won’t go out and talk nonsense.”
Mrs. Li looked at Mrs. Sun disapprovingly: “Don’t always make excuses for her when the child does something wrong, aren’t you doing that? Helping her, but harming her. In our own family, we are taking care of her, but what about marrying her in-laws?
” I said to myself, which one can our family provoke? Can the girls of these two families arrange it at will? And the little prince is involved.”
Sun’s face straightened: “What sister-in-law said is that I will definitely be good in the future. Discipline Yile.” As he spoke, he quickly pushed Yan Yile with his hand, “You girl, why don’t you hurry up and apologize to your aunt.”
Yan Yile bowed her head and did not move.
Seeing her reluctance, Mrs. Li waved her hand: “You don’t need to apologize to me, but Yile, you have made tongue mistakes not once or twice. Now that you are old, you should know how to measure and what to do.
” Under her urging again, Yan Yile said: “Auntie, I made a mistake, and I won’t make it again in the future.”
Regarding the education of the niece in the next room, Mrs. Li has always been on point, and has not continued to chase after her. Fang: “Remember what you said, it’s not for me that you keep your mouth shut, it’s for yourself.” As he
spoke, he looked at the other people in the room.
“I have already asked the people from the sewing room to make new clothes for you. Let’s get ready, and follow me to the Guo family for a banquet in a few days.”
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Li went to deal with general affairs. After sitting for a while, they all dispersed.
On the way back to the courtyard, Wang Man’er saw that her girl was silent, so she couldn’t help but said: “Girl, I think you don’t need to worry about that girl Guo, just like Miss Jiang, who pesters the little prince so much, and the little prince doesn’t care. Is she?”
Daohua stopped, turned around and asked, “I look worried?”
Wang Man’er nodded, then shook his head again: “Anyway, I don’t seem very happy to see the girl.”
Daohua was silent, and continued to walk forward: “I’m not unhappy.” Then he paused, “Come on A few cousins are fine, let’s see Xiao Yeyang’s reaction.”
Xiao Yeyang likes her, but is this love only for her, or is it the same for other girls?
Guo Fu.
After Guo Xueming had dinner with his parents, seeing that the two seemed to have something to say, he withdrew with a wink.
As soon as she left, Governor Guo couldn’t help but praised with a smile: “Our Xueming is becoming more and more graceful now.”
Mrs. Guo smiled and glanced at her husband: “In the eyes of a father, my daughter is naturally beautiful. It is the best.”
Governor Guo quit: “My family’s snow is obviously the best, I see, it compares with the noble daughters of this Zhongzhou family.”
Mrs. Guo’s expression moved: ” Not necessarily, I heard that the girl from Dong Buzheng’s family and the girl from the prefect’s family in Ningmen Prefecture seem to be very outstanding.”
Governor Guo said with a casual smile: “What’s the use of being good-looking? The most important thing The most important thing is the ability to manage the family and treat others, who can surpass Xueming in our family?”
Mrs. Guo smiled, and then sighed: “So what if the daughter is outstanding, it’s not that the marriage is difficult now.” Thinking of the Jiang family, She gritted her teeth with hatred.
If it wasn’t for the Jiang family’s grand visit to ask for marriage, and after being rejected by them, they made the matter known to everyone, why would she take her already grown-up daughter away from the capital to avoid the limelight, and even delay the marriage meeting.
Governor Guo’s face turned ugly: “The Jiang family is so domineering, just wait and see, there will always be a day when they fall from a height to the ground.” Mrs. Guo was surprised: “What does
the master know?”
Ai talked about the things outside in the inner house, and said directly: “It’s nothing, I heard that you are going to hold a banquet in a few days?”
Mrs. Guo nodded: “Since you’ve come to Zhongzhou, you must get to know the officials and family members here.”
Governor Guo gave a ‘hmm’, thought for a while and said, “The Yan family and Yeyang are relatively close. You helped me out of my urgent need with regard to the theft of the species, and you should be closer then.”
Mrs. Guo smiled and agreed, and then said: “My father told me something when I was going out, and I am a little undecided.”
Guo Governor: “What’s the matter?”
Mrs. Guo: “Master, tell me first, is Yeyang still the same as when he was a child all these years?
” As naughty as I was when I was a child.” Thinking of the frontier news he received two days ago, the smile on his face deepened.
That kid was okay, he ran to the frontier without making a sound, and made such a great contribution, which really surprised and comforted him.
Mrs. Guo looked at her husband’s face, and said with a smile: “It seems that Yeyang has changed for the better now?”
Governor Guo smiled and said: “Not only has it changed for the better, but he is also very promising.”
Mrs. Guo raised her eyebrows, eyes With some disbelief, but thinking of the popularity of Liulichang in Kyoto, he said with a smile: “Yeyang built our first Liulichang in Daxia in Ningmen Mansion, which is indeed promising. But master, the business of Liulichang How?”
Governor Guo said with a smile: “That must be good, the supply of colored glaze is in short supply.”
Mrs. Guo hurriedly said: “Please tell me more about it.”
Governor Guo: “How do I know that?”
Mrs. Guo frowned: ” Yeyang didn’t take the initiative to tell you?”
Governor Guo shook his head: “That kid is more and more able to hide things now, but Liulichang belongs to him, if he doesn’t tell, I won’t ask.”
Mrs. Guo looked Disagree: “Master’s words are wrong. Yeyang is a child in Zhongzhou alone, and you are an elder by his side. Don’t you care about him?”
Governor Guo smiled: “I don’t care about that kid.” He said, looking at Mrs. Guo, “What did father tell you? You rambled a lot, but you didn’t get to the point.”
Mrs. Guo: “Father said that he wants to tell Xueming to Yeyang, master, do you think this is okay?”
Governor Guo was silent, and after a while he said: “Yes, yes, but now Yeyang has big ideas.”
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Guo cut off the conversation, and said a little displeased: “Why, our Xueming is not good enough for him? Can he not be happy?”
Governor Guo showed agreement, but then said: “Two The child is a good match, but who can explain the relationship clearly.”
Mrs. Guo snorted, “Marriage is a matter of parents’ order and matchmaker’s words. Although the master is not his parents, he is still close to the elders. How can he not?” Listen to your words? Think back, when he was being bullied in the palace, you stood up to rescue him every time. For this reason, he offended many people.”
Governor Guo frowned, a little unhappy and said: ” It is my duty as an uncle to protect Yeyang, what are you doing with these words?”
Mrs. Guo pursed her lips, trying to bear the discomfort in her heart.
My master is good in everything, but he is too kind to my sister-in-law and Ye Yang.
“Okay, I can’t tell him.” Mrs. Guo paused, “Didn’t Yeyang practice in your barracks? On the day of the banquet, you called him over to let me have a look. Speaking of which, I haven’t seen him for many years. Let me see how he has become, whether he is worthy of my Xueming.”
Governor Guo hesitated: “This.”
Seeing her husband’s hesitation, Mrs. Guo suddenly became unhappy: “It stands to reason, As my aunt came to Zhongzhou, Ye Yang should come to see me, but I have been here for a while, and I haven’t seen him. Now I have a banquet for the officials of Ningmen Mansion, and it is impossible for him to come and see me Governor Guo has already thought up his rhetoric at this moment: ”
It’s not impossible, it’s just that I let him go to practice in the mountains two days ago, and he can’t find anyone here.”
The nephew left secretly, obviously because he didn’t want others to know his whereabouts, so he had to cover it up.
Mrs. Guo showed suspicion: “Really?”
Governor Guo nodded: “Really.”
Mrs. Guo said silently: “That’s all right, let him come to see me when he comes back, our current marriage is not good. It’s easy to say, but if Yeyang isn’t a good man, I wouldn’t be willing to tell him about my daughter.”
At this moment, the servant girl hurried in.
Mrs. Guo frowned, and said displeasedly: “Although we have left Beijing, the rules of the house cannot be messed up. How can we behave in a hurry?” The
servant girl quickly knelt down and admitted her mistake.
Mrs. Guo snorted, and then asked: “What’s the matter?” The
servant girl quickly replied: “Master, Madam, the Queen Mother and the Emperor each sent a nanny to take care of the little prince, and now they have entered the mansion of the little prince in the city. ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Guo stood up with a ‘chuckle’, her complexion was very bad.
Ever since she rejected the Jiang family’s marriage proposal, her daughter’s marriage has been particularly difficult. She has already retreated to Zhongzhou, and she never thought that the Queen Mother and the Jiang family would still be so hot pursuit.
“What a high-sounding queen mother! If you really want to take care of Yeyang, why didn’t you send someone over when Yeyang was young, but why did you have to wait until we came over to feel that she treats others as fools?”
Mrs. Guo was so angry that she couldn’t care less The rules are over.
Governor Guo also had an ugly expression on his face, but he was more calm. He was silent for a while, and said, “Madam, don’t be angry, the emperor also sent a nanny.”
Madam Guo took a few deep breaths before calming down. mood.
At the same time, Yan Mansion.
Daohua received the news one step earlier than the Guo family.
Xiao Yeyang’s mansion was not far from the rouge shop, and when the steward knew about it, he immediately sent someone over to tell her.
Daohua frowned: “The empress dowager and the emperor sent two nuns here.” After finishing speaking, she looked at Wang Man’er, “Go and inquire carefully.”
Wang Man’er nodded and returned after going out for about an hour.
“Girl, I waited at the back door for a long time before I found out from a concierge I knew that not only two nuns but also four beautiful maids came to the mansion of the young prince. They said that the queen mother gave it to the young prince .”
Daohua frowned, and hated this kind of behavior of rewarding women to others every now and then.
Wang Man’er looked at Dao Hua’s face, and said again: “Those two mothers, one is Jia Momo, an old man in the Empress Dowager’s Palace; the other is Zhen Momo, who serves the emperor.”
Dao Hua couldn’t help it. Puba’ let out a laugh.
“Fake nanny? Real nanny?” As he spoke, he shook his head speechlessly, “The mother and son of the emperor and the queen mother are really wonderful, but”
Daohua squinted her eyes: “One is true and the other is false, true and false are relative, Why does it feel that there is a sense of relative Hengfeng in it, does it mean that “the emperor and the queen mother are at odds?
“First, the Guo family’s mother and daughter came, and now the real and fake mothers came. Xiao Yeyang hasn’t come back yet, so there is a disturbance.”
