Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 155 Pregnancy (2)
Su Wan didn't care too much, after all, she could make everyone like her, and most of the people who went to Dingyuan Hou's mansion that day could come, and she was already very satisfied.

Dingyuan Hou Shizi's wife, Mrs. Chen, was the first to arrive. She came so early, in addition to giving Su Wan face, she also planned to help Su Wan. If Su Wan didn't take good care of anything, she could also make a point. two.

For Chen Yaqin's kindness, Su Wan was very grateful, and she didn't think it was embarrassing for her to mention something about herself. She kept asking for advice humbly, and explained her preparations. Chen Yaqin was sincere to Su Wan, He didn't lie to her, he was very concerned about this matter, and he found a few inappropriate things, and corrected them one by one.

Afterwards, several other imperial wives also arrived one after another.

Su Wan received them generously and solemnly. At first she was a little timid, but Chen Yaqin gave her a lot of confidence and encouraged her all the time, gradually becoming more and more comfortable.

After exchanging pleasantries, Su Wan invited all the ladies to sit in the flower hall. There was a banquet in the flower hall. The entrance of the flower hall faced south, and a stage was built in the south courtyard, and then the doors and windows were opened for everyone to watch the play.

The troupe that Su Wan invited this time is also a very famous southern opera troupe in the capital, mainly Yiyang Opera and Haiyan Opera. The most popular Kun Opera has not yet formed. All the ladies have ordered a few operas, and some ordered the more classic "Bye" "Moon Pavilion", "Pipa Story", etc., also have some new popular repertoires nowadays.

Su Wan didn't like to go to theaters before, but now if she puts her heart into watching theaters, she can see some interesting things. Su Wan decided to develop a hobby of watching theaters in the future, otherwise she will not have a common language when communicating with people in the future.

The banquet for today's banquet is also the banquet of Xiankelai, the most famous restaurant in the capital. Although it is a bit more expensive, it is worth the money.What's more, ordinary people can't book banquets at all. Even if you are a wealthy family, if you want to book a banquet, you have to queue up, which is even more rare.

Everyone ate well, had fun, and naturally felt better.All those present were married wives, so there was no need to be taboo too much, and they could speak freely, and in the end, both the host and the guest had a good time.

But in the middle, there was a small episode.

Aunt Wang unexpectedly came here uninvited, and greeted all the orders with the attitude of a hostess, which caused the wives to frown frequently in private, and the smiles on their faces were also very cold, obviously looking down on a mere aunt .

But Aunt Wang didn't seem to notice, and greeted everyone with a smile and Yanyan.

Su Wan's face turned cold on the spot, and Aunt Wang came out to show her presence, just to humiliate her on purpose.Is there any house where the concubine's room can come out and hang out casually when the mistress entertains guests?What's more, she still looks like the mistress, didn't she slap the mistress in the face?

As a regular wife, there is no one who does not hate concubines.

What's more, the status of a concubine is really not on the stage. If there is a regular wife who is on good terms with a certain aunt, then it is only natural that she will be rejected and alienated by the regular wife's circle.

Therefore, even if Aunt Wang is in the presidency of the Hou Mansion, she can even be regarded as the real ruler of the Hou Mansion, she cannot go out to socialize, even if she goes out to socialize, no official wife will condescend to pay attention to her.This made Aunt Wang very upset. After bumping into the wall a few times, she learned how to behave and refused to go out.

When she came out this time, apart from wanting to show her presence and tell everyone who is the real ruler of the Hou Mansion, and to embarrass Su Wan, she also wanted to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with everyone.

It's a pity that none of the people at the scene bought it, and instead felt disappointed.There was also a trace of dissatisfaction with Su Wan.I feel that she can't hold back a concubine's room, and let a mere aunt play wild on her head. Such ineffective discipline, as a mistress, is really unqualified.

Su Wan was about to ask someone to "invite" Aunt Wang out, but Chen Yaqin satirized Aunt Wang viciously, saying that if Aunt Wang didn't understand the rules of being a concubine, she would not mind helping the Marquis of Changwu to discipline her.I heard that she is from everyone, Mrs. Wang Tai's niece. I thought she was a sensible one, but I didn't expect that this Wang family is so unruly that I can't even see my own identity. If all the girls in the Wang family are like this, which family's Do people dare to hire the daughter of the Wang family as their wife?
The other wives also agreed, but most of them were more reserved, but there were also quick-talking ones, mocking the Wang family for not even learning the rules of the concubine, let alone the rules of the main wife. No wonder she was only a concubine due to her background.

Aunt Wang's face turned red and white with embarrassment, and her body was trembling with anger, but she didn't dare to refute.The more she refuted, the more humiliated the Wang family would be.Not only did she lose everyone, but she also hurt the reputation of the Wang family.

If these words are spread, it will be difficult for the girls of the Wang family to marry, and she will be hated to death by the Wang family.Although when she was a concubine, she had already discredited the Wang family.

In the end, Aunt Wang left in despair.The ladies also took this opportunity to vent their aggrieved feelings, and they felt better again, continuing to watch plays and eat wine.After all, whoever has a concubine at home has never suffered from a concubine's room, Aunt Wang has hit the gun.

Even though Aunt Wang took it upon herself and walked away disheveledly with her tail between her legs, the anger in Su Wan's heart still persisted, and she was holding back a sigh of relief, it was really uncomfortable not to let it out.

But she held back her anger for the time being, chatting and laughing happily with the wives, acting as if she was not affected by the incident just now, and the wives couldn't help but secretly praised her for her self-cultivation.

After the banquet was over, Su Wan accompanied the wives to stroll around the garden and drank tea. After the wives enjoyed themselves, they left one after another.

After hosting this banquet, Su Wan's friendship with the ladies has improved a lot. Although it is not as good as she and Chen Yaqin, it is still very good, and it is the kind that can communicate with each other in the future.In other words, Su Wan broke into their circle.The next time the wives hold a banquet, they will definitely invite Su Wan. Su Wan's goal is half achieved.

Chen Yaqin, the wife of Dingyuan Hou Shizi, was the first to come, but the last to leave.

After everyone else left, Chen Yaqin would also leave, but before leaving, she said to Su Wan earnestly: "Sister, don't blame me for talking too much, those concubines in your mansion should be disciplined, if you Let her play tricks on you like this, and you will definitely become a laughing stock in the circle in the future, and people will look down on you. I know my sister is kind-hearted and doesn't want to care about these concubines, but your attitude will only make those concubines look down on you. If you push your boundaries, they will even think you are weak and easy to bully, and they will ignore you even more."

Su Wan knew that Chen Yaqin was doing it for her own good, she nodded gratefully and said, "Sister is right, I won't let this matter go lightly, and I will definitely not let them climb on top of me again."
