Chapter 1160: Flower House
"Second Master Yao, the younger generation wishes you every year today, and every year has today!" Gu Chengyu's congratulatory speech can be regarded as very distracting, but he was temporarily pulled.
"Good! Promise your good words! Yao Qingcheng hurriedly got up to return the salute, and at the same time glanced at the eldest brother beside him, and couldn't help but envy the good luck of the eldest brother.
Outside the screen, it was very lively, and the juniors drank a few sips and felt bored, so they began to cheer up with fist strokes and drinking orders.
Everyone in the hall was laughing, and the sound of the warbler behind the screen was also faintly heard, and Gu Chengyu seemed to hear a woman calling the third sister. ranked third, it should be Yao Mengxian.
Remembering that his fiancée was behind the screen, he couldn't help but feel a little weird. Fiancee? Indescribable feeling.
"Third sister! Today's father's birthday, presumably we begged to go to the flower room, and the eldest aunt should agree. Yao Mengdie looked at Yao Mengxian with a smile, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Yes! Third cousin, I heard that the flower room in the house is not allowed to open on weekdays, but our sisters have been admiring the flower room in the house for a long time. Today is a festive day, and it is a chance to see it. I also asked the third cousin to ask the eldest lady for a favor and let us go in for a visit. ”
It was Jiang Rong, the cousin girl in the second room, who was in the second room at home, only one year younger than Yao Mengxian, and she was the first to ask Gu Chengyu just now.
Yao Mengxian's face stiffened, this Yao Mengdie knew that her mother didn't like her, and asked her to beg her mother. If the mother should not, then wouldn't she be ashamed?
In fact, according to the style of the wife of the family, Ke should not embarrass his stepdaughter in public. But since Ke gave birth to his son-in-law, he felt that his waist was straighter than before, and his scruples were much less than before.
This is a matter of embarrassing oneself in public, embarrassing the Guogong Mansion, and letting others see jokes, and I can't really do it. And aren't these people proposing this precisely because they know that she and her stepmother are not on good terms?
"It's a pity that my grandmother is unwell today, otherwise I would have begged my grandmother, but I wouldn't have to bother the third sister to ask. After all, the eldest aunt wants to preside over the feed, where is the leisure to take care of us? Yao Mengdie's face was regretful, and then she picked up the jade chopsticks on the table and put the Buddha's hand gold scroll in front of her and put it in her mouth.
"Yes! How could the old lady be infected with the wind chill? In this winter, it is most likely to be infected with wind and cold, and the subordinates are too unsatisfied. Jiang Shao, the third girl of the Jiang family, put down the spoon in her hand, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her face was full of worry.
"Isn't it? But don't be too anxious, third cousin, presumably the old lady will be cured in a few days. ”
Yao Mengxian watched Yao Mengdie enjoying her cousin's praise, and the wives on the side praised Yao Mengdie for being sensible and filial with a smile, and she couldn't help but snort coldly in her heart.
This is really showing herself in front of the noble lady of the family all the time, this is to make people think that she is filial, but her daughter in the long house is not as filial as the daughter of the second room?
"Fourth sister, I have been to my grandmother's yard in the morning, and Mother Qin said that my grandmother's body has improved today, so don't worry too much."
This Yao Mengdie is also too anxious, even if she wants to find a good family, she doesn't need to step on herself to behave.
The ladies of the family here are not fools, the women who have been immersed in the back house all the year round, who doesn't know these twists and turns? She doesn't have to argue, she is the daughter of the long house, of course, she has to show the bearing of the daughter of the family.
What's more, even if she is not treated by her stepmother, she is the identity of the daughter of the long house after all. What's more, with her fiancé's current status in the court, no one in the capital is willing to make enemies with white.
Yao Mengdie is just a girl in the second room, and in the future, the Guogong Mansion will be separated, and the second room will only rely on the official position of the second uncle's five products, but all those who have some family backgrounds must carefully consider this family matter.
In addition, Yao Menglian is King Jing's side concubine, and now that the emperor has just ascended the throne, King Jing's identity is sensitive, and some people with strong eyes dare not have anything to do with King Jing now.
And the second wife is still dreaming of letting Yao Mengdie get married, but it's a pity that those families in the capital dare to marry the daughter of the second room now?
Recently, the second wife doesn't know how many walls she has encountered in the capital, but she still can't see the situation of the second room clearly, and she is blindly immersed in the joy that her eldest daughter is the concubine of King Jing.
Yao Mengxian beckoned and asked Lianxin to come over.
"Girl!" Lian Xin took a few steps forward and came to Yao Mengxian's side.
Yao Mengdie always paid attention to Yao Mengxian's actions, and when she saw Yao Mengxian whispering a few words to Lianxin, Lianxin turned out of the screen, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
"Third sister! You see, the eldest aunt is in a good mood at this moment, do you want to ask now? We have been thinking about this flower room for a long time, and the third sister must open our eyes this time! ”
Yao Mengxian smiled slightly, looking at Yao Mengdie's eyes revealing a little coldness, "What is the fourth sister anxious about?" I'll surprise you later. ”
"Master Gu is really massive! Let's have a good time today! The person who spoke was the brother-in-law of the second master, Jiang Dongcheng, the father of the three sisters of the Jiang family just now.
Jiang Dongcheng is only an official position of Qipin, and now he has a position in the General Administration. Although it is only the seventh grade, the General Administration Department has special powers, so the second master Yao is still a little polite to this brother-in-law, even if the other party is only from a small family.
"I'm afraid it won't work today! The younger generation has to go to Dali Temple to be on duty in the next morning, but I have to sweep your Yaxing! Gu Chengyu raised his glass and drank it all and apologized.
"It's not good to drink too much on this duty, so the next day the official will hold a banquet in the mansion. Invite adults, and adults will be sure to enjoy it! ”
"Yes! We have admired Master Gu for a long time, and it is a pity that we can't get drunk today. Let's do the east another day, Master Gu must appreciate the light! ”
The other people at the table also echoed one after another, and the Zhenguo Gong on the side couldn't help but smile when he saw Gu Chengyu like the stars and the moon. This is the son-in-law of their Zhenguo Mansion, and the more everyone befriends Gu Chengyu, it means that Gu Chengyu's status in the court is now high.
If they have such an in-law in the Zhenguo Mansion, the benefits will naturally not be less in the future.
Just when Zhen Guogong was full of smiles, Lianxin quietly walked up to Zhen Guogong and whispered a few words in his ear.
Gu Chengyu naturally recognized Lianxin, and when she appeared, he pricked up his ears to listen, but he only vaguely heard what kind of flower room or something.
After thinking about it, he understood that this flower house should be a place for rich and noble families to raise flowers. Many scarce flowers are very delicate and need a warm house to keep warm in this cold winter day.
"Go ahead! But let those girls be careful, those pots of orchids can't be touched, they are delicate! Zhen Guogong waved his hand, not impressed.
The flowers in this flower room are meant to be watched, doesn't the girl's family like those flowers and grasses? On such a festive day today, there is no need to spoil the fun.
