Daughter of Hou's Mansion

On the day Wei Xiner officially became the adopted daughter of the Wei family, the old lady held a banquet for her.

Mrs. Li resisted passively on the grounds that she was unwell, and the old lady was not angry at all when she heard it. Instead, she relied on her own tough methods to organize the banquet.Unlike the Li family, the old lady used to be active in the circle of noble ladies in Shanghai, and her network resources are much wider than the Li family.Posts written by her personally, those wives will also appreciate this face.

On the first day, the old lady and Qingluan were entertaining guests together.

The servant girl came to report that Mrs. Li had arrived at the second gate, Qingluan stood up in surprise and said: "Grandmother, I'm going to meet the godmother."

The old lady knew that General Li Jing's wife was Qingluan's godmother, so the relationship was naturally closer than others, so she nodded and said: "Go."

Qingluan led Xia Zhi to the second gate, but Lan Yan'er had already got off the carriage.

Qingluan hurried up to support Lan Yan'er, and shouted with a smile: "Mother!"

Lan Yan'er patted her hand with a smile, and then her complexion changed, and she said seriously: "You girl, you really want to worry me to death, and you didn't write to me when there was such a big incident a while ago. Do you still think of me as your godmother?"

What Lan Yaner was talking about was the rumors about Qingluan that had been circulating in Beijing before, because Lan Yaner returned to her mother's house at that time and was not in Beijing. Naturally, it was too late when she got the news. Even so, she was still angry It's terrible, those people who left messages are too vicious, this is going to ruin Luan'er completely.

Qingluan quickly showed a flattering smile and said: "Godmother, don't be angry, as long as it is not true, those rumors will naturally be self-defeating, not to mention that you finally went back to Jiangnan, I don't want to make you feel bad mood."

Lan Yan'er's natal family is in the south, and she hasn't been back to her natal family for so many years after marrying Li Jing, and Qingluan won't bother her because of these trivial things.

Lan Yan'er slapped her as a gesture, and said with feigned anger: "What nonsense are you talking about, no mother would despise her daughter for trouble."

Qingluan was moved, and took Lan Yan'er's hand to go to Rongshou Hall.

But Lan Yan'er sighed again and said: "Hey, Luan'er, the godmother has an idea, listen to it, if you don't want to, forget it." 13acv.

Qingluan raised her eyes, she couldn't figure out what the godmother's intention was.

"You are already twelve now, and you will be thirteen after the new year. The girl's family is looking for someone at this age. I heard those rumors a while ago, and I was anxious and complained to your godfather. You That godfather has never said a good word in his life, what he said that day really fit my heart, he said that there is nothing to worry about those rumors, if it doesn't work, he will let you marry into the Lan family." Lan Yaner's Her eyes are bright, she has only three sons under her knees, the eldest son is already married, the youngest son is about the same age as Qingluan, but there is a second son who is of marriageable age, 17 years old, five years older than Qingluan Aged, isn't this a good match?

Qingluan was taken aback, she really hadn't thought about this question, Lan Yan'er looked at her, thought she was shy, and said with a smile: "See, I'm confused too, you should ask your elders about this matter." yes."

Qingluan's expression was dazed. She had seen the three brothers of the Lan family before. When her mother was still alive, the godmother often took them to the house. The elder brother and the second elder brother of the Lan family were even her best friends.The second child in Lan Yan'er's mouth is named Lan Dongqi. Although it has been many years since he disappeared, Qingluan can vaguely piece together the boy's face in his mind.

If she has to marry in this life, the Lan family is really a good place to go, after all, if the godmother is a mother-in-law, she will definitely love her deeply.

Qingluan lowered her head slightly, and Lan Yan'er didn't say anything else. Anyway, if she could make Qingluan her daughter-in-law, she would definitely be willing.

"Let's put this matter aside for now, the godmother has another thing to ask you." Lan Yan'er changed the topic, but lowered her voice, and only spoke in Qingluan's ear.

"Your old lady wants to adopt a adopted daughter for your mother, do you and your brother agree?" Lan Yan'er's expression was slightly serious, it wasn't that she was trying to speculate on others with malice, but she came to make decisions for the deceased. The matter was too outrageous, and secondly, the old lady was not relative after all, and Lan Yan'er was also worried that the old lady used her status as an elder to force the two of them.

Qingluan looked at the worry in her eyes, and understood what Lan Yaner was thinking in her heart. The matter of accepting Wei Xiner as a righteous daughter was the intention of the palace, but outsiders didn't know it. From the perspective of others, this matter was a It was decided by the old lady that there was an extra eldest girl in the Marquis of Weiyuan for no reason, which also harmed the interests of the two brothers and sisters, so many people outside criticized the old lady.

The old lady understood in her heart that the mouth is on other people's faces, and it is impossible for them to block other people's mouths, so let them speak, and the truth will always be revealed one day.

Qingluan respected the old lady from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't want her godmother to misunderstand her, so she whispered the cause and effect in Lan Yan'er's ear.

Lan Yan'er was surprised when she heard this, but she quickly returned to normal, patted Qingluan's hand and said, "Since this is the case, I can rest assured that there is an elder who cares about you in your house, so I can also rest assured .”

While talking, the Rongshou Hall was already in front of him, and several people who had good friends with the Wei family had already arrived in the flower hall. Qingluan led Lan Yan'er in, and exchanged greetings again.

Wei Xin'er was wearing a brand new pink-blue rabbit fur-trimmed jacket with a stand-up collar and a skirt with folded flowers and twigs. She sat beside the old lady calmly.When she was in the country, she had been by Qin's side for several years, and she was influenced by her ears and eyes. She was very decent in both her manner and her smile.

A look of surprise flashed across the eyes of the wives. Originally, they heard that Wei Xiner was just a rural girl from the countryside. Everyone was more or less contemptuous in their hearts, but now seeing Personally, the impression is a bit better than the first one.

"Huh, why didn't you see the second lady?" It was Qian who spoke, and as the old lady's natal family, this post was naturally to be handed over.However, Qian's heart still bears the resentment of being rejected by the old lady last time, no matter how it sounds, this remark sounds a bit demoralizing.

The Wei family held a banquet, and the head of the inner courtyard, Mrs. Li, was not there, so there was something strange about it no matter how you looked at it.

The old lady glanced at Qian Shi lightly, and said: "She has been feeling unwell for the past two days, so I let her rest in the room, but it doesn't matter if she is there or not, just to let Xiner see you all."

Seeing that there was no sign of embarrassment on her face, Mrs. Qian secretly scolded her cheekily, and then took the topic away.

Xinzheng once.Qingluan looked at Qian's appearance, and really didn't understand her state of mind, did she want to see her grandmother get angry, or did she want to see how her grandmother would not come down?However, the grandmother's clear conscience made others see that she was making a fuss out of nothing.

"Luan'er, Xin'er, take the girls from each family to Luhuating, there is already a banquet there, you don't have to follow me, so as not to be cautious." The old lady said.

Qingluan and Wei Xin'er stood up, and led five or six girls to the Luhua Pavilion.

On the other hand, in the main courtyard of the second room, Mrs. Li said that she was not sick, and sisters Wei Qingyu and Wei Qingyuan refused to give Wei Xiner this place in the name of being ill.

"Mother, it's quite lively over there." Wei Qingyuan said a little angrily.

Li Shi also felt a little regretful, it was embarrassing for the wound on her own face to have not faded, but Yu'er and Yuan'er also lost the chance to show their faces in front of everyone.But when he thought of waiting for his own arrangement, Li Shi felt relieved again.

Qin Shi thought she could promote whoever she wanted?I don't even look at who owns the Marquis Weiyuan Mansion. If Wei Xiner had something like that happen on a day like today, it would be embarrassing and she would throw it at her grandma's house. She just wanted to slap her in return. Qin, let's see if she dares to show her mother-in-law's profile.

"Yu'er, Yuan'er, you don't need to stay here, you can go to the Luhua Pavilion, mother is fine, on such a big day, our second room can't help but give the old lady some face." Li said with a smile.

Wei Qingyu and Wei Qingyuan liked to join in the fun at first, they didn't say anything when they heard Mrs. Li say that, they changed their clothes and went to the Luhua Pavilion.

The Reed Flower Pavilion is a place to enjoy the scenery in the back garden of the Marquis of Weiyuan. There are charcoal pots burning in several corners of the pavilion. Even in winter, it is warm there.

A few young girls were sitting casually. There was an iron shelf in one corner of the pavilion, and a servant woman who was good at cooking stood there, roasting some fresh venison and beef.The stove in the middle is simmering warm wine, the aroma of wine and meat is permeating, and the atmosphere of eating around the stove is naturally very harmonious.

Liu Qianqian hugged Qingluan with a smile and boasted: "This method is novel, where did you learn it?"

Qingluan responded with a smile: "I saw it in a story book before, and thought it was very interesting, so I wanted to try it. It really is a bit interesting."

Liu Qianqian nodded Qingluan's head and said, "You are the only girl who has the most evil ideas."

Qingluan took her arm with a smile, and joked: "Before my brother told me to marry his sister-in-law as soon as possible, I don't know if Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu are reluctant."

Liu Qianqian blushed immediately, twisted Qingluan's face lightly, and scolded with a smile: "Don't talk about me, I know how many families are here for you today, and I don't know who will be here in the future. Which kid is unlucky, and will marry you back home."

After a few glasses of wine, the girls in the pavilion also let go of their moods, and directly regarded the floor covered with soft carpets as tatami, and there was no right way to sit or lie down.

Seeing from afar, Wei Qingyu couldn't help but frown. This is still a noble lady from Shangjing, and she doesn't pay much attention to appearance.

ps: Today is Tanabata, Xiaoyu without a lover is very sad, please come out and make a fuss if you are single.
