Jiangshan is the betrothal gift

Chapter 22
Those who came to receive them were three girls from Duke An's mansion. Mrs. An Guogong had three sons in a row and didn't have a daughter, so the three concubine girls in the mansion were actually doing well.After all, Mrs. An's wife's three sons are in a stable position, and with these three daughters under her knees, they can still marry, so they are usually pampered.

The eldest girl, Fan Yu, the second girl, Fan Rui, and the third girl, Fan Wei, all have different birth mothers, and among them, Fan Wei is the favorite of Mrs. An Guogong.

Fan Wei brought Rui Yue the most affectionately, holding her hand and chirping non-stop.Fan Yu accompanied Rui Lan, Fan Rui accompanied Rui Yi, the six of them sat around in the hexagonal flying pavilion, and the maids brought refreshments briskly.

Rui Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip, with a look of surprise on his face, he said, "It's actually Huading Yunwu."

"It is said that the nine girls in Anshun Hou's Mansion love tea very much, and it is true." Fan Rui said with a smile, "You tasted it as soon as you took it in."

"The 65 huts in Huading are all in the cliffs. The mountain flowers are all gone, and no one can see them. A bell rings in the white clouds. This tea is very rare. I drank it once when I was last year, so I remembered it and didn't want to. I still have such a good taste today." Rui Yi said softly.

Anyone who thinks he is somewhat talented must tell an allusion, not bluntly saying good or bad.Rui Yi said this to let everyone know that she knows the origin and benefits of this tea.

Fan Yu glanced at Rui Yi in surprise, everyone said that the Nine Girls of the Marquis of Shun'an's mansion were the crown jewels of Jinghua, and they were all over the place, but they didn't think they were talented.The little contempt in my heart was a little less, after all, when women are with women, they always feel uncomfortable when they see someone prettier than themselves.

This is human nature, it is inevitable.

With Rui Yi's aggressive appearance, no one among her sisters may be sincerely willing to make friends with her, let alone the ladies from other families outside the house.

Standing with her, no one can see who is beside her.

"Ninth girl is really talented and knowledgeable. There are not many people who like to drink this tea. I wanted to be a curious person today, and I didn't want to be caught by your words." Fan Yu looked at Rui Yi and smiled, but when he spoke, he looked at Rui Yue , the same as drinking tea, but she didn't taste it.

High and low, see immediately.

Rui Yi sighed softly in his heart, he didn't expect that this girl from the Fan family was really not to be underestimated, just a few words like this made Rui Yue hate her to death.

However, when encountering such a thing, she was already used to it, so she wasn't afraid.Everyone has divided the house, and she can't lose the face of the eldest lady when she comes out. Thinking of this, she looked at Fan Yu and smiled softly: "Miss Fan praised her highly, but she just read a few books occasionally when she was free. She also prefers to eat and drink. When it comes to reading, my sixth sister is a real talented woman, but she is not as vulgar as me."

Hearing these words, Pei Ruiyue's expression softened a bit, and she also knew the reason why her sisters' jokes should not be seen by others outside, even if she was unhappy in her heart, it would not be easy to show it on her face.Therefore, taking advantage of Ruiyi's words, he showed a slight smile, and said slowly, "Ninth sister is the most modest. Could it be that the books on the wall in your room are just pretending?" Ren, "My younger sister not only likes to eat and drink, but also likes to read books for entertainment. I don't dare to say that I have the talent of chanting Xu, but I can afford to read a hundred volumes. I have a good tongue, and it is even better when I eat and drink."

"Sixth sister, just say that I am a food lover." Rui Yi didn't feel any shame. "Basic clothing, food, shelter, and transportation come second, so it's more important. I'm just my own favorite. When it comes to the first That's all."

These joking words caused everyone to laugh softly, and at this moment, Shiting really had a bit of harmony.

The daughter's family is nothing more than talking about clothes and jewelry, or discussing a few lines of poetry, or studying purse embroidery, which is also very enjoyable.At least when everyone intends to maintain a peaceful and friendly environment, it is not easy to make trouble.

Lunch was also placed in this garden, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and they also played the Qushui Liushang, which was very enjoyable.

The garden was huge, bisected by an artificial stream.This side of the river is the place where the women's family members live in Ermen.On the other side of the river, across a bamboo forest is the study in the front yard.

At this time outside the bamboo forest, Fan Licheng, the eldest son of Duke Anguo's mansion, is inviting King Qi Zhou Shenyi to visit him. Seeing that King Qi is about to start choosing a concubine to get married, he has three younger sisters in his family. The location still wants to work hard.

Across the bamboo forest, I heard the laughter of the woman on the other side of the river.

Fan Licheng immediately said apologetically: "Today, my mother invited the wives and girls from the Marquis of Shun'an's mansion to be guests, which disturbed the prince's cleanliness." Originally, he wanted to change the day, but King Qi was busy with official duties. This day is scheduled long ago, if you miss it, you don’t know when you will have a chance next time.

Zhou Shenyi turned his back to the bamboo forest, his facial features were hidden behind the sunlight, when he heard Fan Licheng's words, he said in a calm voice, "It's okay."

Fan Licheng had no idea, fearing that King Qi might misunderstand, he said in a low voice: "My third younger brother has an engagement with the sixth girl from the Marquis of Shun'an. Today is such a coincidence, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Zhou Shenyi's slender, white and strong fingers gently turned the wine glass, and when Fan Licheng mentioned the Shun'an Hou Mansion, he couldn't help but think of the rumor in Kyoto that the nine girls of the Shun'an Hou Mansion crowned Jinghua...

"It's a happy event, congratulations to your family." Zhou Chenyi said.

Fan Licheng heaved a sigh of relief, but he said: "Thank you, my lord. These years, the Marquis of Shun'an's mansion has been in decline, and my family's marriage with him is based on our previous affection."

The expression on the face hidden in the dark could not be seen clearly, but he did not respond to Fan Licheng's words, and took a sip of his wine.It became quiet in an instant, and the laughter outside could be heard more and more clearly.

Fan Licheng didn't dare to say anything else, and his banquet guests couldn't mention the rights and wrongs of the guests, so he could only pick up what happened in the capital and narrate it to the King of Qi. Come.

Sending a girl to be a side concubine, you can't say it directly, too straightforward will hurt your face and make people look down upon you.The best way is to find a middleman to make peace if you have a concubine or a concubine, and naturally everyone will be happy.

But at this moment, Fan Licheng couldn't see what King Qi was thinking, and it was even more difficult to test his words here, so he could only praise his younger sister in circles.But at this time, the girls in the pavilion on the opposite side were bickering, but the rumored Nine Girls from the Shun'an Hou Mansion took the lead. No one has seen it yet, but they are the first to make an impression. These few words are the first to leave an impression up.
