Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 188 Dignified and Noble (5)
Luo Qian said: "I've heard some things about her. She used to be just a farm girl. Luo Xuan once mentioned her to his father. Even the Songning land lease was disturbed because of the few acres of rice she planted. , Humph, I never imagined that I would become my uncle's daughter after being mixed around, but no matter how much a pheasant changes, it can't become a phoenix, so it must be vulgar."

Lian Xiangjin said: "Cousin is right. Judging by the appearance of that woman, she is not as well-bred as the servants in the family, but she is so crazy that she doesn't know who she is..."

He said in a low voice: "We discussed with Eldest Sister that we will invite her to the Lu Mansion. When the time comes, we will work together and teach her a lesson so that she can learn how to behave with her tail between her legs, so that she will not dare to show it in the future!"

"Oh? How can I teach you a lesson?"

Lian Xiangjin said: "Xiangyuan and I are discussing it, but we haven't made a decision yet. Let's see when the time comes. Anyway, we just have to find a way to make her look ugly!"

Luo Qian was most interested in such things, and said, "I want to see what time you guys are planning."

Lian Xiangjin said: "Tomorrow, the elder sister said that she would invite some noble children, in the name of blind date for Lian Xianglai."

Luo Qian said: "Tomorrow? I also want to invite you to watch the fireworks tomorrow. I specially asked the craftsmen in the palace to make the fireworks of my own style."

Lian Xiangjin rolled his eyes and said, "Then how about taking it to the Lu Mansion tomorrow? It happens that the banquet will definitely be delayed until evening, and it would be good to let that bumpkin see the fireworks in the Wang Mansion later."

Luo Qian knew that she liked to show off, and she was of course happier when he showed kindness to her in front of others, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's set off fireworks at Lu Mansion tomorrow!"

Lian Xiangjin said excitedly: "Great, I'll send someone to tell Eldest Sister that you'll be there tomorrow, so she can make preparations."

On the morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Yang Mengwan sat behind Xianglai, combed her hair with her own hands and said, "You girl, you know they are trying to embarrass you deliberately, why do you want to go?"

Xianglai said: "For these boring people, you should beat them until you don't dare to fight back, otherwise the more you avoid them, the more you will think you are easy to bully, and you will find fault endlessly in the future, making you very annoying .”

Yang Mengwan sighed and said: "Oh, your child's temperament is really a bit like mine back then..."

Xianglai knew that she was thinking of her dead daughter again. Seeing that the girl was still standing on both sides, she was afraid that she would say something sad, and said: "Of course my daughter will be like a mother. A daughter is proud of her face in front of others. face."

Yang Mengwan pursed her lips and smiled: "Well, yes, so I want to dress up my daughters beautifully, so that they will be ashamed of themselves just by looking at them!"

After Yang Mengwan combed Xianglai's hair, she helped her choose clothes and jewelry.

She thought that she was Lian Xiu's wife back then, and she was very good at dressing up. After her dressing up, Xiang Lai became more beautiful, really glamorous.

After finishing dressing up, Huiling couldn't help but praise: "Miss, you look really good-looking like this. If you dress up like this, if it wasn't for the blind date, it would really ruin Madam's mind!"

Xianglai smiled and said, "Well, I'm going on a blind date, maybe I'll bring you a brother-in-law back tonight."

Huiling curled her lips and said, "You mean, if you really bring someone back, there's no guarantee that someone won't just break into the mansion and cause bloodshed."

Xiang Lai laughed and said, "I don't believe he's that barbaric!"

Huiling immediately laughed and said, "Hey, miss, who are you talking about, why don't I know?!"

Xianglai poked her head hard with her fingers, and said, "You damn girl, you actually make fun of me like that!"

Huiling smiled and took her hand, and said, "Okay, my miss, let's go quickly, Shen Che has been waiting outside for a long time."

Although Huiling knew Xu Che's true identity, she still called him "Shen Che" on the surface as before.

When the two of them went outside, Xu Che had already prepared the carriage for a long time, he acted as the driver himself, helped Xianglai into the carriage, and drove towards Lu Mansion.

Originally, when he heard that Xianglai was going to Lu Fusheng's house, he planned not to go. When he was in the army, he met Lu Fusheng a few times. He was worried that Lu Fusheng would recognize him and he couldn't explain it. Lai didn't come back until after dark, so there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents, so he had to change his attire. After all, as a coachman, he didn't need to enter the mansion, so it was unlikely that Lu Fusheng would find out.

When the three of them arrived, cars and sedan chairs were already parked outside the gate of the Lu Mansion, and Lian Xiangjin and Lian Xiangyuan even came early.

Lian Xiangyin sent a servant to stand at the door to greet her, Xianglai and Huiling entered the mansion together, and Xu Che waited in the car.

Although the beginning of spring has passed, the weather is still cold. With such a cold spring, the banquet must be held indoors.

Xianglai followed the servants all the way to the mansion while thinking, in this cold weather, she would definitely not do any silly tricks like curved water cups. Thinking about the rough folk customs of the Northern Liao Dynasty, they probably don't like those arty things, but I don't know what tricks they will play, but no matter what, even if they really put on the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that they are least good at, with the rich knowledge they brought from their previous lives, they will be taken aback for a while, and they will definitely not be fooled. It's hard for them to live.

The servant who guided her did not take her directly to the main hall where the banquet was held, but led her to Lian Xiangyin's residence.

Lian Xiangyin, Lian Xiangjin, Lian Xiangyuan and several wealthy ladies she invited were sitting in the hall talking, when someone reported that Xianglai had arrived, she first greeted them and said, "My sister I came from a slightly cold background, if there is anything wrong, please don't laugh at it..."

Just as Xiang Lai came in from the outside, the beaded hairpins on the temples and the pink-faced Luo Yi were as bright as plum blossoms reflecting snow, dazzling everyone's eyes.

Everyone in the house who knew and didn't know Xianglai was stunned. Even Xiangjin and others saw her casual appearance since she entered the mansion, and they had never seen her so glamorous.

The few people who had never met Xianglai were even more thinking, didn't they say that the daughter of Bian Lian's family who grew up outside was a vulgar businesswoman, how could she be so dignified and noble.

After everyone was stunned for a while, Lian Xiangyin was the first to react, and Chao Xianglai smiled and said: "My sister is finally here, let us wait, but it's okay, I was worried that you wouldn't dress up to make the sisters from Zhufu laugh at you, but now it seems that you don't know how to dress up." Passable too."

How could Xianglai not hear the derogatory meaning hidden in her words, she said with a gentle smile on her face like Lian Xiangyin: "Sister is too worried, even though I don't understand etiquette, my mother used to be the main wife Ma'am, I will point out my sister about such a trivial matter."

Although Lian Xiangyin had only met Xianglai twice before and after, she had already learned something about her sharpness. At this time, she suffered a secret loss and could only pretend not to hear it. She got up and introduced to Xianglai: "This is Zhou Fu Miss Zhou...this is Miss He from the He Mansion...this is Miss Ma from the Ma Mansion..."
