Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 54 Discussion
There seemed to be some smoke and fire in the gazebo, and the bureaucrats and wives of various families couldn't figure out the situation, so they could only stand aside with lowered eyebrows and tightly clutched handkerchiefs.

Shrewd eyes turned around one by one, fearing that he might say something wrong and get angry.

Where there are many women is trouble. Although it is not as serious as fighting with real swords and guns on the battlefield, you can still stir up gunpowder quietly with just a clever mouth.

"Huaiqing, I see that your banquet today is very elegant." Mrs. Wang raised her sleeves and covered her lips with a chuckle and said calmly: "How did I hear that you still go to the one who just returned to Beijing from the countryside?" The Lu family handed over a name card? Isn't this humiliating me and other big families in Beijing?"

As soon as this remark came out, many staff members who were close to the right minister also echoed.

"That's right, this Lord Lu made a big mistake, and now the saint has sympathized with him and let him return to Beijing, but he still bears a serious crime!"

"Isn't it just that it's a shame to let me wait to have a banquet with the family members of Lu Guogong's mansion."

"I heard that the fourth lady of the Lu family is here today, how can a stinky girl born in a remote place deserve to make friends with us!"

Listening to their angry words, Mu Qingyun was still gentle and moderate, lifted the tea bowl on the table and took a sip: "If sisters talk about this matter, let's go out of the door of Mu's house and talk on the street. Everyone knows that Duke Lu made great contributions to the frontier battle and won the favor of a saint, and he also advised us not to fight with each other, and be careful that disaster comes out of our mouths."

This is a reminder and a warning on the bright side.This person was invited by her, Mu Qingyun, if she is dissatisfied, she should go out of the door of Mu's house and shout.

Although Mu Qingyun spoke softly, the words he said were drawn out of the sheath of the sword, and every sentence revealed a cold light.

Mrs. Wang had tall willow eyebrows, and her well-maintained face was full of disdain. She snorted coldly and said, "I heard that Lu's daughter has not gone out to see anyone in Beijing for more than ten days. I hope I don't dishonor the reputation of today's 'Spring Banquet'."

After speaking, he led the second queen Ruofu to get up and leave.

As her figure got farther away, Mu Qingyun's clear eyes were filled with undercurrents, hidden secrets.

In a flower garden in Hongcangyuan, four or five pretty beauties walked together. The leading woman was tied up in black silk, wearing a rose-purple riding attire, paired with chain link buckskin boots. .

"Why don't you have a banquet? It's rare to be able to ride a horse and toss around the Cuju City for a while today." The woman in the riding dress raised her willow eyebrows, and her almond eyes were full of impatience.

From the back, a young woman wearing a pink lotus root collar and embroidered satin skirt walked up to the front and said softly: "My dear sister, you don't know something. I heard that today's banquet is very different from previous years!"

The woman in the riding costume looked proud, raised her chin and asked her in a cold voice, "What's the difference?"

"I heard from my mother that the young lady from Duke Lu's mansion who just entered Beijing will also be here today." The woman in pink said flatteringly, while she tilted her head and mockingly looked at the other four women behind her.

The villain's triumphant appearance made the people behind him grit their silver teeth in anger.

"Hey? It's not bad that she is the concubine of the servant of the Ministry of Rites. This news is really well-informed!" The riding woman rolled her eyelids and said sarcastically, "You think I'm a fool? Is there anyone in Beijing who doesn't know this news? "

The woman in pink is named Lin Caier, the concubine of the servant of the Ministry of Rites.

The spring banquet is usually attended by officials and wives who bring their sons and daughters, but Lin Caier is special, as daughters of concubines can also be mixed into this upper class circle.

Lin Youzhi, Minister of Rituals, who in Beijing doesn't know about favoring concubines and destroying wives?Whenever there is such a good thing, the main wife must bring the concubine Lin Caier to go together. If it is not for the sake of face, the main wife will definitely tear Lin Caier and her concubine biological mother to pieces.

Seeing that Lin Caier had run into a wall, everyone was delighted. Although their concubine daughters were not as valuable as the young ladies of the four clans, what they despised the most was the concubine's concubine's daughter.

I would rather be a poor family wife than a high family concubine!
"Didn't the news about Cai'er treat everyone like three-year-olds? I wonder if you've heard of one of them?" A fair-skinned, slightly tall woman whispered, "I heard that Duke Rilu had just entered the city, and the Ninth Prince brought many Jin Yiwei from the city to meet him in person, but the Fourth Miss of the Lu family disregarded her face and got off the carriage, and even talked to the Ninth Prince!"

As soon as these words came out, the group of women suddenly looked ferocious and cursed loudly.

"The nine princes are all of the best character, how could they talk to that village girl?"

"That's right! I see, that woman must be shameless, trying to (seduce) the Ninth Prince!"

"What a slut from a barbaric land."

The woman in the riding costume heard them yelling endlessly, and flicked the long whip in her hand towards a cypress tree.

"Snapped!"

A few leaves scattered lightly.

The quarreling stopped suddenly, and the group of chattering women was startled, and swallowed a few times to swallow all the unfinished words.

The woman in the riding costume looked at them with a funny smile and said, "I didn't expect to see you guys who are well-educated like dogs on weekdays, and you will start to spit when you meet my cousin? Don't think this lady is stupid. Let me speak for you in front of your cousin, why don't you go home and ask the mother to obey the rules!"

This fiercely dressed woman is Mu Qingyun's daughter - Su Wanwan.

The person Mu Qingyun married was Su Qing, a Taolin hermit who was once a well-known literary master in Dongying. After marrying Mu Qingyun, she retired to the mountains and forests, and occasionally went to Mu's residence to stay with his wife and daughter.

Su Wanwan is the only daughter of Mu Qingyun and Su Qing, and she has been pampered all her life, but this woman is upright, she doesn't like female red texts, and she loves swords, guns and sticks.

Mu Qingyun was also troubled by this, but her husband had told Su Wanwan to do whatever she liked, as long as she lived a happy and worry-free life.

Su Wanwan's temperament is not likable, and she has never made any friends. Many daughters of noble families avoid her like snakes and scorpions.

I heard that there was a time when Lord He's daughter-in-law had a quarrel with Su Wanwan because of a quarrel in the palace. Su Wanwan didn't care about other people's identities. Knocked out.

When Master He got up the next day and looked in the mirror, seeing her face disfigured, she cried and wanted to hang herself to death. In the end, it was Concubine Mu who took out the ice and snow jade face ointment and completely erased the scar. just give up.

From then on, Su Wanwan became famous in Beijing, and no one dared to provoke her.

I don't know what kind of thoughts are these few people who are not open today?He dared to join her, did he really think that she, Su Wanwan, was brave and omnipotent?
Lin Cai'er and a group of women from the small official's family were frightened by Su Wanwan, so they fled regardless of appearance.

Su Wanwan smiled contemptuously at their leaving figures, but somehow she felt lost in her heart. In the past 16 years, no matter what she did, she was always alone.

She has adapted to loneliness and is willing to be alone with her.

In front of the Mu Mansion, Lu Ziyu's car had already arrived.

Bai Lu took out the name card from her cuff, and walked towards the servant who was entertaining guests outside the gate of the mansion.

Seeing Bai Lu's extraordinary character and appearance, the young man thought it was someone from some noble family, so he hurriedly asked with a smile, "Which family does the girl belong to?"

Bai Lu stood up again and straightened her back like a pine, smiling reservedly and generously, and said loudly: "Qingshui Lane, Duke Lu's Mansion!"
