The lucky star of rebirth

Chapter 201 Candidates

When it was time to start the banquet, Mrs. Xing San and Mrs. Rong entered the front hall together. The wives and grandmas of each family waved to their side with their own girls, and asked a few words about how the fun was going from time to time.

Afterwards, Mrs. Yu, whom everyone had agreed upon, also came in with the girl, and after seeing Mrs. Yu, she smiled gently and sat aside without saying a word. For a while, she was praised for a while.

Mrs. Rong called people to open the banquet while talking and laughing, and everyone entered the table. The young ladies from various families sat together and chatted. One said that the hairpin of that was beautiful, and the other said that the clothes of this one were of good material, which was the most fashionable color this year. Praise others for their good embroidery work, the fresh flowers they embroider, and others for their good handwriting and painting, no matter what they think in their hearts, their faces are always kind and happy.

Mrs. Rong smiled and said to Mrs. Xing: "Look at these girls, I just think of when we were young, we were just like them at that time. All these years have passed in a blink of an eye, and our girls have also reached such an age."

Mrs. Xing also laughed: "It's nothing special, thinking about the situation in the boudoir, it still seems like yesterday."

While he was talking, he saw the girl serving the dishes, and he didn't know whose young lady was unprepared for a moment, and even got the vegetable soup on Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Xing San. When she saw that something was wrong, she quickly got up and cried. Apologize.

There was no displeasure on Miss Yu's face, she just said it's okay with gentleness, and advised the little lady not to worry, but how unhappy was Mrs. Xing San, although she said it was okay, but there was some thinness on her face. angry.

Mrs. Xing looked at it and whispered to Mrs. Rong: "The lady of the Yu family is calm and quite calm. Compared with her, my sister is far behind."

Mrs. Rong curled her lips secretly, thinking that this is not calm, her niece has always been like this, she seemed not to be angry, but said in her mouth: "Where, your sister has a good temper, she is so stable in what she does at a young age." , it’s not like you are so lively, it’s not as lively as your sister."

Mrs. Xing was humble, but in the end she still felt that although Mrs. Yu was good, she was a little unreal, and she was really not as good as her own sister.

For a while, when Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Xing San changed their clothes before entering the table, the room was full of voices praising Mrs. Yu. Although Mrs. Xing San felt a little wronged and unhappy, she thought that this was someone else's house, and There were so many people watching, and finally endured it.

After dinner and all the guests left, Mrs. Rong helped Mrs. Rong watch the girl clean up the mess, and said to Mrs. Rong in a low voice: "My aunt's eyes are growing to the top of the sky now, she really doesn't like us Home, when I was in the garden, I listened to the girl brought by my cousin talking, and only said that my cousin's character and appearance could be married to anyone who loved her, even a high marriage, the home of a prince, and the mansion of a prime minister. Go ahead and say that with my temper, I'm afraid I'll only be married off in the future, mother, tell me, if it wasn't for my aunt's inner and outer meaning, could the girl say that."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Rong was a little unhappy.

Mrs. Rong was not angry, but persuaded Lady Rong: "What do you do with her? You don't know your aunt's temperament. She is the kind who hates the poor and loves the rich. I just don't know how she brought up such a girl. , It's really not the same temper as your aunt."

"Who knows." Mrs. Rong thought of Mrs. Yu's temper: "My cousin is pretty good. She never knows people's rights and wrongs, and she has a good temper. But after all, she is a bit weak. I don't know if she married into such a high-ranking family. If she can survive for a few days, even if she marries into a poor family, she will not be able to be a family or a master like that."

Mrs. Rong sighed: "I once told your aunt to ask her to find someone whose family background is not too high for your cousin, and is not the eldest son or grandson of the family. With your cousin's temperament, you can get by, but you My aunt just doesn't listen, she's very angry now, she just wants to use your cousin to climb higher branches, just wait, sooner or later something will happen."

Having said that, both mother and daughter stopped talking.

Even Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing were talking about Mrs. Yu when they walked back. Mrs. Xing thought Mrs. Yu was very good, but Mrs. Xing thought it was not good, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. Very awkward.

When he was about to get home, Mrs. Xing sighed: "It would be great if I could receive a message from the Xiangyang Princess Mansion. The people who go there are all famous and respectable, so I might be able to find you a good marriage."

Mrs. Xing San felt that she would be looked down upon by others if she married too high a family, so she persuaded Mrs. Xing a few words.

When the mother and daughter arrived home, they saw the housekeeper approaching happily, met Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing San first, and said with a smile: "Madam, I'm overjoyed, overjoyed, the Xiangyang Princess Mansion has just posted a post, please invite your wife and lady Participate in the flower viewing party."

"Really?" Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing San's eyes lit up at the same time.

"It's absolutely true." The housekeeper put up the post with a smile on his face, and Mrs. Xing saw that it was indeed from the Princess Xiangyang Mansion, not to mention the other things, just the paper with the fragrance on the bronzing side was very precious , where ordinary people can have it, they can't help but be more happy.

Excluding the Xing family, Mrs. Yu also received the post after she brought Mrs. Yu back home. Mrs. Yu became more and more excited. She felt that Mrs. Yu's name was known even to Princess Xiangyang, so she was very happy. Is it true, what mother said is right, girls should focus on chastity, but your aunt doesn't know how to teach girls, she taught you to look like your cousin, now you are only a head taller than your cousin, in a few years you will And look, you are so high above, she can't even get around you."

Mrs. Yu whispered: "It's not good for my mother to tell my cousin's length behind her back like this."

But when she spoke like this, there was a bit of complacency in her eyes and brows. Mrs. Yu was the girl who knew her family best. Seeing Mrs. Yu's appearance, she smiled even more proudly.

It's just that the Rong family, which they despise, also received the post. Besides, there are several other companies that also got the post.

Speaking of which, it is Ji Songxian's credit for posting these posts. Ji Songxian wanted to find some time to see those young ladies, but he couldn't act rashly. The princess ordered a few more copies.

Naturally, this matter is only a trivial matter for Princess Xiangyang, and naturally there is nothing wrong with it.

On the day of the flower viewing banquet, Ji Songxian went to the princess mansion early, first chatted with the princess for a while, and then got up to greet Wu Shi and Ji Xin when they heard that Mrs. Wu and Ji Xin had arrived. Observing the little ladies brought by each family, I found that there are many good-looking ones, and there is a family whose concubine is the most beautiful, and she speaks kindly and smartly. She looks very good, but Ji Songxian looks at this family. The concubine's daughter was as timid as a quail, so she didn't have a good impression of the concubine's daughter.

Not only Ji Songxian was observing, but Ji Xin also tried his best to talk to the young ladies of each family. After talking for a while, Ji Xin came to look for Ji Songxian on the pretext of being thirsty, pulled Ji Songxian and whispered: "The Minister of Rites Shen Shilang The concubine's daughter is really nice, but his family is also weird, but the concubine's appearance makes me feel awkward."

Ji Songxian whispered: "Shen Shilang's wife and aunt gave birth one day, who knows what happened inside, so that the prostitute daughter was brought up like that."

When she said this, Ji Xin thought about it for a while, and figured out many shady and bloody deeds, so he didn't dare to say anything more at the moment.

After a while, the wives and ladies of the Yu family, Xing family, and Rong family that Ji Songxian liked also came. Ji Songxian observed secretly and found that Mrs. Rong and Mrs. Xing San were all good, but they also had some minor problems. Only that Mrs. Yu looked good everywhere, and there was nothing wrong with it, so she thought it was very weird, but she didn't like Mrs. Yu in her selfish heart.

Mrs. Wu is also observing secretly, and it is almost the same as what Ji Songxian thinks.

When the flower banquet started, the red sleeves in the whole garden were flaring up, and the fragrance was full of people. Princess Xiangyang was very happy to see these little ladies talking, laughing and playing together, and called a few who looked good to come and talk for a while. , Mrs. Wu also beckoned a few young ladies to speak, and those ladies naturally tried their best to flatter them, but they couldn't stop laughing.

After a while, on the other side of the lake, the son-in-law of Princess Xiangyang brought many young sons-in-law there to recite poems and fight against each other. It was also a happy scene.

Seeing this, the little ladies knew in their hearts that it was a flower viewing feast, but in fact it was also a blind date feast.

The flower viewing banquet didn't end until the evening, and when they left the Xiangyang Princess Mansion, many people had already made up their minds.

Back home, Mrs. Wu called Ji Wei and Ji Zhen and asked, "How is it? Which one do you like?"

Ji Wei was a bit ashamed and didn't open his mouth. On the contrary, Ji Zhen didn't feel anything, and said loudly: "Mother, you go to Rong's family to propose marriage. I think that lady Rong is good."

Seeing what Ji Zhen said, Ji Wei also said, "Go to Xing's family to propose marriage."

Seeing that Mrs. Wu was still a bit puzzled, Ji Wei became more cautious: "Daddy's official position is not suitable for our family to get married with such a high-ranking family. Therefore, my eighth brother and I searched among those low-level officials of the fifth and sixth ranks. I think Mrs. Xing San has an upright appearance and a sharp personality, so she thinks it is good. The mother also knows that her son is not as lively as the eighth younger brother, so her son wants to find a lively one. interesting."

Ji Zhen also nodded: "Everyone in the world talks about three obediences and four virtues, and they only say that girls are chaste and quiet. Many girls are taught like an active female four books. It's really not very interesting. A husband and wife live together for a lifetime. Sons naturally I don’t want to look for someone like that, who will keep my son bored for the rest of his life, but it’s not as good as the one who loves to talk and laugh and has a bit of a petty nature, as long as she understands the truth and can listen to others’ words, that’s all.”

Although Wu agreed with his son's words in his heart, he smiled and said: "I told you to choose a wife, and it will definitely attract such crazy talk from you."

Just when Mrs. Sun came into the house, she also laughed when she heard this: "The daughter-in-law has started to make up and send people before she is married. Well, don't tell your mother what you say, but only tell your future daughter-in-law. Keep calling them." happy."
