Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 725
Gu Yanxi's question couldn't help the female relatives present.

Jingyang Hou's Mansion, like Lu's Mansion, is a family of martial arts, especially the old Hou Ye who was loyal and courageous, sacrificed his life for the country, and was praised by the people and civil and military officials all over the world; the current Jingyang Hou is the old Hou The eldest son of the Lord, although he did not lead the army outside like his father and guard the country, he also served in the military department, and the whole family was on duty in the army; it can be seen that although the Jingyanghou Mansion is a noble family, the family disciples are very respectful. Those who can bear hardships and live up to their spirits; they are not like other families of princes and nobles, relying on the shade of their ancestors to eat and wait for death.

Therefore, facing Gu Yanxi's question, Cao replied directly without thinking: "Although the current Jingyanghou is serving as a Beijing official in the middle of the capital, no one in the capital knows that this Jingyanghou's mansion is from generation to generation. Just like the Lu Mansion, the place where generals are born is the home of generals; Jiaojiao, does this question you ask Aunt Cao have anything to do with the answer you want to answer?"

Gu Yanxi smiled mysteriously, and said, "Of course it does. In fact, Aunt Cao, you have already answered the answer I wanted to say just now. Jingyanghou Mansion is the home of generals, and we can feel it from the moment we enter the Marquis Mansion. No matter whether it is the design of the courtyard or the style of the subordinates, this Hou's mansion has a sense of comfort and loftiness. It can be seen that even though Jing Jinghou is not directly serving in the army, he still has a sense of wit and ease. The atmosphere in this courtyard is rustic and tidy, and the grand courtyard is really refreshing. This kind of family is definitely not comparable to ordinary small families with complicated rules, and the people in this team are bold and forthright. When I am happy, I will untie the wine bag I carry with me and take a few sips to vent my feelings. Today is the birthday of the old matriarch, and Jinghou Mansion has prepared for this day for many days. In such a festive How can there be no good wine to add to the fun in these days? Therefore, with the neat style of Jingyanghou Mansion, there will be not only good wine on the male guests' side, but also on the female family's side. Said Come on, drink today, in addition to being able to drive away the cold, more importantly, so that everyone who comes to the Hou's Mansion can feel the enthusiasm and joy of the Hou's Mansion."

Hearing Gu Yanxi's words, all the female relatives present showed stunned expressions.He repeatedly cast admiring and admiring glances at Gu Yanxi, and secretly murmured in his heart, this Lin family really knows how to give birth to a daughter, not only did she give birth to this daughter with an alluring beauty, but she even gave birth to a clever and clever mind, which is really impressive. Envious tight.

Mrs. Lin has been walking among the female relatives of various prefectures and courtyards in the capital for many years, and has long developed the ability to observe words and emotions and figure out people's hearts. Obviously, but this heart has already blossomed with joy.

She just knew, how could her daughter not shine at this birthday banquet?This child is playful and lazy in normal times, but once she is told to do something seriously, this child will definitely go all out and complete it seamlessly.Seeing such an excellent child, Lin's heart that was originally happy suddenly picked up at this moment for some reason.

Her daughter who has been pampered by her side for many years, is usually held in her hand every day; as long as she thinks that her caring little padded jacket may become the wife of another man in the near future, she will never be able to see her again. Now that it was so easy, Lin's heart felt like a knife had been cut, and it began to ache faintly.

Gu Yanxi naturally didn't know the battle between heaven and man in her mother's heart at this time, she was just as usual, with a sweet and moving smile on her face, and a pair of bright and twinkling eyes revealing wisdom and purity, almost making everyone present want to hate It is difficult to get up.

Seeing Gu Yanxi like this, apart from Lin's mood fluctuating greatly, there was another person's mood fluctuating abnormally at this time.

I saw Mrs. Zhu who was sitting next to Mrs. Lu excitedly putting down the handkerchief in his hand under the table. Looking at Gu Yanxi who had become the object of everyone's attention in an instant, his heart jumped excitedly.

The more she looked at Gu Yanxi, the more she felt satisfied. In the end, she couldn't hold back her beating heart, opened her bright eyes, and actively talked to Gu Yanxi: "The girl in front of me must be Gu Fu The third girl. The wisdom and reputation of the third girl is very popular in the capital. Today, I can see the third girl in the Hou Mansion. I think the praise of the third girl from the outside world is not even one-third of the goodness of the third girl. Make it clear. Hurry up, come closer and let me see this watery beauty."

From the very beginning, Mrs. Zhu wanted to join the conversation of the women's relatives, but recently there have been such jokes and scandals in the Qingping Hou Mansion, and Mrs. Zhu was an unpopular and arrogant person before, so, today Even if she wanted to take the initiative to join in, few people would sincerely welcome her.

And this Mrs. Zhu is considered smart, and even got involved with Mrs. Lu.And although Mrs. Lu married General Lu, who was born as a general, and became the hostess of the general's mansion, when she was a girl, she was a real lady from a famous family in the capital. Can't fault anything.

However, although this good reputation has brought Madam Lu a lot of good reputation, it has also become a rope that binds her, making her unable to speak outrightly and freely in front of people like some temperamental people; The reason why Shi took the initiative to find Mrs. Lu was because she knew that if she deliberately approached other people at this time, she would definitely get a bad nose.But Mrs. Lu is different, she is famous for her virtuousness, even for her own reputation and the reputation of the Lu family, she cannot be like those other noble ladies in Beijing who dare to laugh at her in front of her He refused her approach so bluntly.

What's more important is that the fourth girl from the Lu family has a close relationship with the third girl from the Gu family. Getting close to Mrs. Lu is like killing two birds with one stone for the Zhu family. Not only can she get close to their circle of female relatives, but she can also get close to her target person, Gu Yanxi.

Right now, Mrs. Zhu couldn't restrain her desire to get close to Gu Yanxi, so she made out with Gu Yanxi in front of everyone, causing the expressions on many people's faces to change slightly on the spot.

And Lin Shi, who was immersed in his own emotions, also straightened up after hearing Zhu Shi's words, with dissatisfaction in his eyes, looking at Zhu Shi who smiled flatteringly at her daughter.

It was also at this time that Lu Yingying, who had been standing beside Gu Yanxi, also noticed something, but what she noticed was completely different from the people present.
