Chapter 504: Purpose Exposed
Beijing, Qi Mansion.
It has been a long time since Qi Xiaoxian's official position was promoted, but there has been an endless stream of people who want to request to visit Ruan Di every day, and there is still more and more rhythm.
Especially when it was announced that Ruan Tao was about to become the secretary of the ministry, everyone was even more envious of him, and many women in the boudoir who liked Qi Xiaoxian secretly hated her for having such a good father, but they wanted to snatch their male gods.
But at this point, it's useless to say more, but now Ruan Di is pregnant, and Ruan Di is the only one who serves Qi Xiaoxian, and now she is a double body, but it is precious.
Many ladies are thinking that they can take this opportunity to send their own concubines in.
Thinking of this, many people's minds began to come alive again, the men tried their best to invite Qi Xiaoxian to dinner, and the women kept sending worship stickers.
At the beginning, Qi Xiaoxian thought it was too troublesome, so he directly rejected them, and his tone was very cold, so that the men no longer wanted to invite him to dinner.
Are you going to eat a big ice cube? This meal is estimated to be cold after a while.
Ruan Di also wanted to refuse them all, but except for the wives of some officials with lower official positions than Qi Xiaoxian, she could refuse, and she didn't know how to refuse other high-ranking wives.
And she has to start her business in the capital, if she offends all the ladies, her store is estimated to be closed in a few days.
She had no choice but to allow the ladies to come and sit here for a while.
Soon, the next day, a bunch of ladies arrived, and everyone began to greet each other.
Ruan Di really didn't expect it, so she agreed, and they came immediately.
"I didn't expect all the ladies to have such a strong interest in my Qi Mansion, and the concubine is really fortunate to be so appreciated by the ladies in three lifetimes." Ruan Di dragged his heavy body and prepared to salute everyone.
When those ladies saw that they had big bellies, they were worried about letting their daughters come to force themselves to marry her, and they were a little reluctant for a while, so they hurriedly went to help her.
"Don't torture us old women because of your heavy body."
Ruan Di slandered in her heart, she knew that she was pregnant and still wanted to visit her, didn't they know that picking up customers was also tiring? One or two of them are not good-natured, but they seem to make people think that they are very kind, which really makes Ruan Di speechless.
"Sister Ruan, your makeup that day really looks good, you said you came to teach me." Suddenly, a little girl ran up to Ruan Di and looked at Ruan Di with shining eyes.
Ruan Di was shocked by the sudden enthusiasm, and then she saw Song Huaiya with an innocent face.
At this time, Song Huaiya was looking at Ruan Di's stomach in surprise, "Sister, will there really be a small ball here?" Isn't it soft like glutinous rice. ”
"Yes." Ruan Di touched Song Huaiya's little head, and suddenly found that it didn't seem to be suitable, so she immediately put it down, and laughed a little.
"Why didn't my sister touch it, it's so comfortable." Song Huaiya was feeling comfortable, and suddenly this source was gone, a little uncomfortable, and shouted.
"Your beautiful hairstyle will be ugly!" , Ruan Di joked with her and scared her.
"Well, forget it." When Song Huaiya heard this explanation, she wrinkled her face, and she was entangled between being comfortable and always beautiful, and finally chose to be beautiful all the time.
"Ladies, please come in." After this little episode, Ruan Di quickly invited these ladies in.
"Mrs. Qi, it's really getting more and more beautiful, and this Qi Mansion is also becoming more and more humane by you." Suddenly, a lady spoke up in praise of her.
This lady is the mother of a high-ranking official, and now her son and daughter-in-law are accompanying the emperor on his southern tour, and he, as a mother, has to think about the concubines in the house.
happened to come across this opportunity, of course, he had to praise the hostess in the Qi Mansion, but he was not wrong, the previous Qi Mansion looked like another Qing Minister.
It was cold and serious, so that the passing crowd walked by quickly, for fear of being suddenly caught by the Qing Officials.
Soon everyone came to the Qifu hall, and now the hall is not as black as before, and there is no color at all, but it is decorated with a lot of seasonal flowers, which are just picked in the morning, and the ladies can't help but nod slightly when they see such a dress.
They wanted to think that this Mrs. Qi would not only be able to wear makeup but also live a life, and at a glance, they knew that this lady should be an elegant person.
"Xiaowan, go and bring the tea that has just been brewed so that the ladies can also taste the tea rewarded by the emperor." Ruan Di waved his hand to Xiao Wan.
"Yes, ma'am." Xiao Wan was a little incredulous, so she had no choice but to respond. You must know that the tea is not precious, but the water is.
It was the lotus dew that my wife collected from going to the lotus lake in the capital every morning, and I used it to make tea today, I wanted to drink it for the master. I didn't expect to cheapen these uneasy and well-meaning people, and Xiao Wan felt a little unhappy in her heart.
"Mrs. Qi, this fetal elephant looks very good, it should be a boy!" A lady in a smoky purple eight-panel gong dress spoke.
"Yes, there are a lot of things to pay attention to when Madame is pregnant now, such as eating and drinking, although there are no taboos, but greasy food is still less, and ah......" Another lady also spoke.
Then there were a bunch of ladies who started talking about their previous pregnancies and some things to look out for.
During the conversation, Xiao Wan also instructed the maid to bring the tea.
A young lady wearing a pleated skirt of water-green scattered flowers and mist and green grass tasted the tea, paused, and was a little surprised, "Mrs. Qi, this is the tea brewed by the morning dew of the Lotus Lake in the capital." ”
"Yes." Ruan Di nodded slightly.
"I didn't expect to be able to drink it again in this life, Mrs. Qi is really a clever person. This won't be specially soaked for Lord Qi, are we taking advantage of others. The lady laughed at Ruan Di.
"I didn't expect you to know tea so well, madam, this is indeed brewed for your husband to drink." Ruan Di saw that she pointed it out, and she didn't hide it, and generously admitted it.
"Then we can be regarded as a blessing to Lord Qi." The ladies spoke together.
After saying that, everyone tasted this unusual tea and nodded. Apparently all satisfied.
The ladies and Ruan Di were talking, telling each other's interesting stories, which made the relationship between them a lot closer, and soon someone revealed their purpose.
"Mrs. Qi is now a double body, so I have to find someone to take care of Lord Qi, why don't you choose one of your maids to marry? Or look for a concubine in the family. A lady dressed in a very red dress glanced at Ruan Di's belly.
Ruan Di didn't expect that this was really the one waiting for her, and immediately sneered in her heart, you need to worry about the affairs of the old lady's family?
