Ninefold Purple

Chapter 340

Mrs. Jing Guogong has three sons and five daughters. The marriages of the three daughters are all chosen by her, and all of them are well married.Especially the eldest daughter, who married Xia Wan, the eldest son of Xia Bing, the editor of the Imperial Academy. At first, everyone felt that the eldest daughter of Jing Guogong's mansion was too wronged. In 11, he worked in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs... After he was promoted to be the governor of Zhejiang last year, no one thought so anymore. Instead, he praised Mrs. Jing Guogong for her insight and finding a good son-in-law.This is also an important reason why Mrs. Jing Guogong's waist is so strong in Jing Guogong's mansion.

When Dou Zhao and Song Mo arrived at Duke Jing's mansion, Duke Jing's mansion was already full of people.In addition to those Jingdu nobles who had contacts with Duke Jing's mansion, the in-laws of Duke Jing's mansion also came to pay respects to Mrs. Jing Guogong's birthday, and the five sons-in-law of Duke Jing's mansion even sent valuable birthday gifts.

Song Mo whispered to Dou Zhao: "If you have anything, let the servant girl call me, and if it doesn't work, tell the third wife."

"I know." Dou Zhao looked at Song Mo who was in high spirits, and said softly, "Don't drink so much wine."

"En!" Song Mo nodded, squeezed her hand lightly, and then went forward to help Mrs. Lu who was sitting in the front carriage. [

Princess Ningde also got out of the carriage.

Mrs. Lu took Dou Zhao's hand and smiled at Song Mo: "You just go to socialize with you. I'll see your daughter-in-law, she won't lose a hair."

Everyone chuckled.

Song Mo was not shy, and thanked Mrs. Lu frankly.

Mrs. Lu laughed, and turned her head to talk to Princess Ningde: "This child is just so cute."

Princess Ningde pursed her lips and smiled.

Song Mo, Lu Qin and others resigned from Mrs. Lu and other female relatives and went to the main hall on the east side, while Dou Zhao followed Mrs. Lu and other females into the second door.

Mrs. Zhang San was surrounded by a group of maids and women and hurriedly greeted her: "Princess, uncle and grandma..."

She bowed her knees to salute everyone, and everyone talked and laughed and went to the flower hall.

Mrs. Jing Guogong was talking to Mrs. Changxing Hou.Seeing Mrs. Lu and Princess Ningde coming in, she was a little surprised. She stood up to greet her with a smile on her face, and said, "I didn't expect the two ladies to come. Duke Jing's mansion is really full of splendor!"

Mrs. Lu and Princess Ningde are a generation taller than Mrs. Jing Guogong, so they don't have to come, but because their granddaughter married into Jing Guogong's mansion, they flatter Mrs. Jing Guogong and give their granddaughter a good face.

Mrs. Lu said with a smile: "Didn't you want to come to your house for a meal?"

"Invite distinguished guests that you can't even invite." Mr. Jing Guo smiled, "As long as you don't dislike the lack of drinks."

Everyone greeted each other, greeted each other, and sat down in the flower hall.

Mrs. Jing Guogong was talking to Dou Zhao: "This is the first time Mrs. Shizi is visiting our house. If there is anything you can't tell me. I can only order your cousin."

Mrs. Zhang San and Song Mo are cousins.

Dou Zhao smiled and said yes.

Mrs. Jing Guogong introduced the female relatives present to her: "This is my eldest girl, and now I am serving with my son-in-law in Jiangnan. This time I celebrate my birthday, and she came back from Jiangnan specially... This is my second daughter-in-law. Girl, her mother-in-law is the daughter of the Ji family in Yixing, and she is also related to your family by marriage..."

Dou Zhao greeted them one by one with a smile. [

In her previous life, she had frequent dealings with Duke Jing's mansion.They are very familiar with their relatives.

Several aunts in Duke Jing's mansion hurriedly got up to return the salute.

The flower hall was full of excitement.

The servant girl came in and said, "The wife of the prince of the Marquis of Yan'an has arrived."

Mrs. Jing Guogong repeatedly said "please".

Mrs. Wang came in with Mrs. Dongping Bo Shizi.

Everyone must have a salute.

Then Mrs. Guang Enbo came with her daughter-in-law, and then Mrs. Xuan Ninghou came...

Dou Zhao knew all these people, but it was just a matter of how much he knew, especially the wife of Xuan Ninghou Guo Qinghai.Not only are they Wangnian friends, but they also do business together and become relatives of their children, and at this time.Mrs. Guo just nodded and smiled at her, and they couldn't be like the last life.In order to support the family and came together.

Dou Zhao couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Mrs. Dong Ping came with her two daughters.

Dou Zhao couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Mrs. Dong Ping's figure like a weak flower brushing a willow, and her face like a leisurely flower shining on water, make people feel a little affectionate just looking at it.

Although her twin daughters are still young, they are as beautiful as pearls and jade.

Dou Zhao's heart felt a little stuffy.

She hurriedly took out a few tea leaves and put them in her mouth, only to feel better.

The number of guests gradually increased, and the flower hall was full of laughter and laughter. The young and long women sat together and talked, while the older ladies formed another group.

Because it was the first time for Dou Zhao to "show up" in the honorable circle in Kyoto, Princess Ningde personally took her to recognize someone.

They are all acquaintances from the previous life, and Dou Zhaohe socializes effortlessly, and the polite greetings are all to the point, which is impressive.

Mrs. Lu and Princess Ningde couldn't help but secretly nodded.

Mrs. Zhang Er, who was receiving guests in the flower hall, rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Why didn't you see Mrs. Jining Hou? I remember that I also sent an invitation for her."

Because Wei Tingzhen is the wife of the eldest son, Mrs. Jing Guogong's birthday banquet should be arranged by her logically.Because Mrs. Jing Guogong didn't like the eldest son, and she didn't even like the eldest daughter-in-law, so she handed over the kitchen work to Wei Tingzhen, and instead asked the second and third daughters-in-law to help her entertain guests in the flower hall. [

Hearing what the second daughter-in-law said, Mrs. Jing Guogong couldn't help frowning.

The third wife of Zhang was much more clever than the second wife of Zhang, she hurriedly smiled and said: "It's too early to leave the banquet, I'm afraid there may be some delay." While speaking, she winked at the woman beside her.

The mother-in-law understood and went to the counting room next to the kitchen.

Wei Tingzhen is inspecting the birthday peaches at the birthday banquet.

The woman hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said: "Ma'am, the third wife asked me to tell you that the auspicious time is coming soon, and I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for Mrs. Jining Hou."

Because it is not a whole birthday, Duke Jing's mansion only invited relatives who did not leave the third service and some nobles who came and went frequently. The elders and the younger kowtow to Mrs. Jing Guogong's birthday, and guests like Dou Zhao who are not direct relatives will be invited to sit at the banquet until the birthday celebration is over there.There will be a seat here.It would be a very rude thing to come back after the banquet.

Wei Tingzhen was furious.

Dou Ming's behavior was like slapping her in the face, and he didn't take her seriously at all.

She scolded Dou Ming bloody in her heart.

But in front of Mrs. Zhang San's mother-in-law, she didn't dare to show any strange "color", but said with a smile: "Jining Hou's mansion is a little farther away from here, and it's probably delayed on the way. Send someone to take a look." Then he stuffed the last red envelope to her and said. "Thank you to the third wife for me."

The mother-in-law left happily, but Wei Tingzhen was so angry that she threatened her.

Fortunately, the person who sent out quickly responded: "The Marquis of Jining and his wife have arrived at the door."

There are too many people now, let's wait until this matter is over!

Wei Tingzhen nodded, and went to the kitchen to taste a few dishes that would be delivered to the birthday banquet later.

Wei Tingyu and Dou Ming, who got off the carriage in front of Jing Guogong's mansion, did not look very good-looking.

Wei Tingyu said to Dou Ming, "You wait to see my sister, and help my sister entertain the guests. Share some worries for my sister", and moved to the flower hall in the front yard,

Dou Ming looked at Wei Tingyu's background and sneered a few times, then he was supported by the servant girl and followed Zhang's mother in charge into the Chuihua Gate.

The flower hall is full of jewels and full of laughter.

She met Mrs. Jing Guogong.

Mrs. Jing Guogong hurriedly asked her: "Get up! Get up!"

Dou Ming stood up with a smile, but saw Dou Zhao sitting on the brocade stick next to Mrs. Jing Guogong.

How did she come?

Dou Ming was astonished.

Dou Zhao smiled and nodded towards her.

Dou Ming's gaze sank.

Madam Jing Guogong waved at Dou Zhao.To Dou Ming said: "Look, who is by my side?"

The young ladies are okay, they had a great time playing together, but the woman sitting next to Madam Jing Guogong stared at them with wide eyes.

Dou Zhao couldn't help sighing.He greeted Dou Ming lightly.

Dou Ming is not stupid, even though she is about to "knead" a handkerchief into a pickle, she still calls out "sister" softly and practically.

Someone looked at Dou Zhao and then at Dou Ming.He said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the two ladies of the Dou family married really well. The eldest daughter became the son of the British prince. The second daughter became the wife of Jining Xiahou's mansion. One family and two wives are much more difficult than the one family with three scholars. .”

Everyone laughed.

Someone interjected: "It's rare that the fourth miss of the Dou family is married, and her natal family even adds makeup to her."

Dou Ming was stunned.

Add makeup?

Add makeup to Dou Zhao?

Why doesn't she know?

Dou Ming's eyes flashed with confusion, and he looked at Dou Zhao, and saw Dou Zhao sitting there smiling, half joking and half serious, "It's just that my father loves his daughter, married, and is not a daughter-in-law, and wants my husband's family to look up to me." Just a glance."

That's an admission!

The crowd was in an uproar.

Many people still remember Dou Zhao's bank note when he got married.

Princess Ningde said with a smile: "Just listen to it, but don't talk nonsense! Thinking back then, when you brought a banknote of ten taels of denomination, people were so jealous that they took risks. If you know how much property Shougu has under her name, Why don't you provoke those desperate robbers again!"

Everyone chattered to express that they were not the kind of gossip, but they all rushed to inquire about Dou Zhao.

"Mrs. Dou, will Mr. Dou still give you a bank note this time?"

"Mrs. Dou, this is the first time we've heard of the Dou family adding boxes to you. Could it be that your father is afraid of being missed by thieves like last time, so you don't say anything?"

"Why don't you write it on the dowry list when you get married, and add a box?"

"It must be that Dorsey has a lot, and I'm afraid that the thieves will find out."

For a while, everyone was very interested in this topic.

Someone teased Dou Ming: "There is still a man who makes a fortune sitting here with a muffled voice!"

"Yes, yes!" Someone agreed, "How much makeup did Mrs. Jining Hou get?"

Dou Ming's hands were trembling, and it took him a while to suppress the resentment in his chest, and said with a smile: "Father loves my sister the most. If my sister has something, I may not have it. Don't bother me, go ask my sister."

But I was thinking about the bank note in my heart.

Wei Tingzhen asked her to go back and ask her father, but she didn't have such a thick skin, but she didn't know in her heart, so she asked someone to inquire after going back, and only then did she know that the bank note was for herself... She was so angry that she couldn't bear it for a few days. Wei Tingyu didn't dare to say it without eating, for fear that Wei Tingyu would regret marrying him after hearing it.

Unexpectedly, there were more exaggerated things waiting for her.

The father even added makeup to Dou Zhao in private.

If it wasn't for someone saying that he slipped his mouth today, would his father plan to hide it from her for the rest of his life?

A layer of cold water flooded Dou Ming's heart, which made her shiver.
