Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 274 The sisters negotiate to buy back the ancestral house (1)
It was still this servant who replied: "Returning to the fifth young master, they are the royal family's Hai Wang's concubine Li Wangfei, Xuanjun princess, Panjun princess, Xiujun princess, Mrs. Feng Laoguo, Mrs. Sun of the Duke's mansion, and Mrs. Sun. , Mrs. Niu, Miss Deng Yun, Mrs. Hong and Miss Tian Susu from Tian Guogong's mansion."

Li Yunfei likes to join in the fun, and said with a smile: "There are a lot of guests. Let's go and have a look."

Li Jingjing asked: "Did you all remember the address of the guest just now?"

He Jiye nodded.

Li Yunfei stretched out his hand to rub his head, and said, "I didn't remember it. But when I see older ones, I call them grandma, younger ones call them older sisters, and those in the middle ages call them aunties. That's okay too!"

With so many guests, even Li Jingjing had to remember for a while, let alone Li Yunfei who was only four years old.She can only nod.

From the reception room of the main courtyard came the chatter and laughter of the female relatives, and one of the women said with some pride: "I have been looking forward to your coming, our mansion has sent people to guard the gate of the city every day since last month." Now, my old man said that you must have gone through the Anhua Gate, and it was exactly as he expected."

A woman's voice full of anger said: "Just say that your old man is a worm in Mr.'s belly. Your old man knows every move of Mr.'s family very well."

What he said was rough and implied, but it attracted unscrupulous laughter from all the women.

The woman just now was not angry, and said loudly: "Didn't your family also send servants to guard the Anhua Gate? Or why I came in front, and you came in behind."

Li Jingjing led the twins in, and all the female relatives fell silent, and looked over in unison.

"This is Jing Niang, she is really a figure who walks down from the painting, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off."

The woman who made the admiration sound was probably in her forties, with thick black hair combed in a bun, wearing two flying phoenix gold hairpins inlaid with rubies, and a dark purple long skirt with slanted buttons. Not thin lips.

The skin on her face was covered with a light powder to cover the wrinkles. She looked more attractive than ordinary old ladies, especially her warm and approachable smile, which made people feel good.

She was the one who was teased by another elderly lady that her husband was the worm in Li Bing's belly——Old Lady Feng, the only wife of Lord Deng Yingguo.

Qu Shi couldn't help showing a smile.

From the corner of his eye, He Shi could see the astonishing expressions of the dozen or so guests, and felt very proud.Her daughter's appearance is more beautiful than the two princesses and the two daughters of the Duke's Mansion present, and her temperament is also more outstanding.

The old lady who was still full of spirits boasted loudly: "Where is it on the painting, it is obviously a fairy from heaven and earth!"

Several people nodded and said yes.

Feng Shi was once again suppressed by the old lady's words, but she was not angry.

This elderly lady is Mrs. Hong, the consort of Lord Tian, ​​the shrew who once made trouble in Duke Qin's mansion.

Mrs. Hong is not an ordinary person.

She was the god-sister whom He Dong worshiped in his most desolate period, and she had rescued He Dong.After He Dong ascended the throne, the Hong family was canonized as the county head.

Up to now, when He Dong met Mrs. Hong, he always called him "Old Sister".

Li Jingjing smiled and nodded at the two ladies, then bowed and said respectfully in a clear voice like a bell: "Jingjing has met all the elders."

He Jiye and Li Yunfei reported their names, articulate and not timid at all.

The women looked at this little boy who once brought a stain on Li Bing's reputation - He Jiye, thinking that he would not be able to inherit the preciousness of the Li family in the future, and would have to support the He family alone, with some pity in their eyes.

He Jiye was not the first to receive such a gaze.He is introverted, keeping his head down without saying a word.

Sitting at the top was a middle-aged beautiful lady wearing a crescent-white plain dress and only dark-colored luxurious jewelry on her hair. She smiled and said to He Shi: "I see Jing Niang is more beautiful than sister-in-law."

He Shi Wan'er followed along and said, "What the princess said is true."

The middle-aged beautiful woman is Li Juanye, the only concubine of Prince He Jinghai, the eldest son of the late King Xia.

Concubine Li was born in the general family. Her grandfather was a general who garrisoned the Northland at the beginning of the dynasty. Her grandparents, uncles, uncles and other relatives all died in battle against the Huns.

The first emperor of the first dynasty sent more than a dozen cities in the north to the Xiongnu. In grief, Princess Li's grandfather resigned from the army and took his family to live in seclusion. Li Bing persuaded him to join the rebel army.

After He Dong came to the throne, Princess Li's grandfather became a Taoist monk, and the Li family army returned to the court.

He Jinghai is Li Bing's second disciple, younger than Li Laoshi, and he is nicknamed He's sister-in-law by Princess Li's affectionate name.

But the He family can't forget that they are called Concubine Li's siblings.

Concubine Li looked at the twins again, and asked: "The two young men are both born well, they are exactly alike, which one is the older?"

Li Yunfei led He Jiye to the He family, looked at Princess Li, smiled and replied: "As for the princess, I am the younger brother, he is the elder brother."

Only then did He smiled and introduced the nobles in the hall to the three children according to their rank.

The first one to introduce is Princess Li who is the first grade.

This is the nobleman with the highest rank in the hall.

"It is said that jade bracelets nourish people, and people also nourish jade. If you wear it, it is also a master." Princess Li immediately took off the extremely precious ancient jade bracelet on her left hand and gave it to Li Jingjing, who gave it to the twins. Each child has a pair of precious jade Ruyi.

Li Jingjing didn't want to accept such an expensive ancient jade bracelet that Princess Li had carried with her for many years, but seeing He's nodding, she accepted it.

Followed by Mrs. Hong, Mrs. Yipin Tian Guogong, Mrs. Feng, Mrs. Deng Guogong, Princess Xuanjun, Princess Pan, and Princess Jue.

Old man Hong presented Li Jingjing with a set of very precious sixteen-piece heads and faces inlaid with gold and steel diamonds.

When her big servant opened the precious carved lacquer box, the diamond-tipped jewelry inside shone brightly, dazzling and luxurious.

Mrs. Feng is only five years younger than Mrs. Hong, and she is also 61 years old this year. However, after several years of using the beauty powder made by Li Jingjing brought by Deng Ying from Qujia Village, she looks more than ten years younger than Mrs. Hong.

Back then, Li Jingjing heard Deng Ying say that he and Mrs. Feng were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship has been very good since they got married.

Old Mrs. Feng gave birth to seven sons to Deng Ying.Deng Ying did not disappoint her, she had only had one wife for so many years.

The last time Deng Ying went to Qujia Village, she brought Li Jingjing a valuable meeting gift. This time, Mrs. Feng gave each of Li Jingjing's siblings a well-prepared and valuable meeting gift.

He's tone was calm, and he said slowly: "This is Princess Xuanjun."

Hu Jing, Princess of Xuanjun, who had been sitting for a long time without speaking as if for decoration, stood up and said in a voice that could not hear emotions, anger, sorrow or joy: "From now on, you will call me Auntie."
