Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 216 Arrogance
Jiang Wu's words are also puns, and the listeners can't help but think that Song Ke'er has not changed because of her proud attitude and sharp words when she spoke just now, or because she is still unmarried at the age of 25 and is waiting for Huo Jiujiu to favor her.

This "shrew" lady is really good at talking.

Many noble ladies couldn't help pursing their lips and giggling, and some of them suppressed their smiles and kept their faces away, deliberately chatting with others in a low voice.

Song Ke'er's face turned blue and red, stared at Jiang Wu fiercely, and sneered: "What Madam said is that I haven't changed much, unlike Madam who has become more and more famous."

"Fortunately, Miss Song won the award. I'm just pretending to be a tiger. If you say that you are truly 'knowledgeable' and 'a model woman', who is sitting today can compare with the British lady?" Jiang Wu turned around and looked very sincerely. With the Duchess of England.

Her eyes were so clear that the British Duchess couldn't tell whether she was sincerely praising or sarcastic.After all, I have seen a big scene, no matter what Jiang Wu meant, the Duke and Duchess of England took it as a compliment, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Jin Ninghou is too praised, how can I afford such a compliment."

All the ladies were busy admiring at the right time, flattering and flattering, and everyone's attention was shifted to the British princess.

The four "goddess-in-laws" were really relieved, they came to surround Jiang Wu, and whispered with a smile: "Godmother, come here to rest for a while. Don't talk to people who don't know how serious they are."

"Yeah, it's really shameless for me to covet other people's husbands, and to have the face to make trouble in person." This sentence is a bit sincere, and it must be because of the vixen's anger on weekdays.

"Godmother, sit down and have a taste of this tea."

……

Accompanied by several people, Jiang Wu went to the other side to sit down and drink tea, and there were people chatting and laughing beside her.

After all, the Duke and Duchess of the United Kingdom are feared and cannot be disobeyed, but who would care about a little Song Ke'er?
Song Ke'er stood on the spot, clenched his fists in his sleeves, almost biting his silver teeth in hatred.

Just at this time, a well-dressed daughter-in-law suddenly trotted into the hall from outside, and whispered to the British princess: "Go back to the old lady, the Duke of the country asks you to set aside a separate piece of land, he and the distinguished guests Come and have fun too."

For the distinguished guests of the British Duke, a place must be opened up, and the person who comes must be a man.

The Duke and Duchess of the United Kingdom were a little surprised. Why did the big men come to join in the fun at the banquet today?However, she still ordered someone to go to the easternmost side of the Qiuhua Hall to place a folding screen, and then asked someone to open the east door.In this way, when the male guests arrive at the scene, they can directly walk through the Chaoshou corridor and enter the east door, and they can reach that place without bumping into the female guests.

When the women saw this, they knew that someone was coming, and the topic changed to guessing who was coming.

Not long after, I saw a few figures walking down the corridor, entering the east door and reaching the other side of the screen.

Yingxue, the big maid that Jiang Wu brought today, quietly came to Jiang Wu's side, and whispered back: "...The servant girl was in the corridor just now, and she saw Lord Hou coming, so she is on the other side of the screen."

Jiang Wu heard the words and looked at the folding screen, because it was a wooden carved structure, she couldn't see the figure on the other side clearly, and was very surprised that Huo Shijiu would come.After all, this is a post from the British princess to the female relatives. Before him, there was no man present.

Could it be... He didn't worry about her, so he came here specially?After all, in the British government, there are no good memories in the past.And if Huo Jiujiu really wanted to protect her, he would never care what others thought of him: whether it was because he was worried about his wife or because he couldn't live without her.

Jiang Wu lowered her eyes, she was in a good mood, and she forgot all the unhappiness just now.

Except for the British princess and the first lady and the second lady beside her, the others naturally did not know who was coming.

Song Ke'er stared at Jiang Wu sullenly, always felt that it would be an advantage if she successfully debunked the topic, this shrew, it wasn't that she wanted to smear her, those things that lost the face of a lady in the world were done by Jiang Wu herself, Of course it's not her fault.

So Song Ke'er simply found a seat opposite Jiang Wu and sat down, chatting with the two familiar ladies beside her, the topic went around and around, and it went back to the fire in the capital city a few days ago.Because the two ladies didn't want to offend Jiang Wu, their voices were very soft when they spoke, only Song Ke'er's voice was clear and loud, talking freely.

"...If the fire really burned the houses, wouldn't the common people have no place to cry? Even if there is a deep hatred, a daughter should not do such an excessive thing to her old father."

"If I were her, I would hide at home and never come out... But she has always been used to this, I'm afraid she doesn't know what shame and etiquette are..."

While Jiang Wu was eating tea, Song Ke'er was already crackling beans like pouring beans, she rebuked Jiang Wu without naming her name, obviously she was not reconciled to the fact that the two quarrels just now did not gain the upper hand.

The enthusiasm for gossip that had just been extinguished by the noble ladies was once again ignited by Song Keer, and the chatter in the hall was visibly weakened, and Song Keer's crisp voice became even more fresh: "I don't know how she did it. Thick-skinned... You don't have to say that I said too much, and I didn't say who it was, whoever said it was scared..."

The faces of the four "goddess-in-laws" around Jiang Wu turned black. Just as they were about to retort, they suddenly heard a cold and clear male voice on the other side of the screen: "...Since the Duke said this, Mo Ran, what do you want?" Two servant girls, go and throw that tongue-twisting woman out of here."

Immediately afterwards, a handsome young man in a light gray long gown came out around the screen, walked straight to the British princess without looking aside, and cupped his hands and said, "Report to the old lady, and ask your old mothers to help. This is from Lord Hou." mean."

The British Duchess's face was ashen, she looked at her and she had stopped talking, Song Ke'er's face was stiff, and said in a deep voice: "This is a banquet organized by the old man, and the distinguished guests of the old man will be there. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this. Besides, Jin It's not good for Marquis Ning to tear up his face with Marquis Xinchang, right?"

Cao Yu raised his eyebrows, and said, "So it was the female family members of the Xinchang Hou family who spoke so wildly just now? My Marquis and Xinchang Hou are old friends, and my Marquis stopped him from talking loudly and disregarding the family style on such an important occasion. Presumably, the Marquis of Xinchang will understand."

The Duke and Duchess of England looked coldly: "I didn't expect that everyone around Jin Ninghou could be so eloquent."

"The old lady is too famous." Cao Yu cupped his hands indifferently, and said, "The Duke of the country means to let the Marquis handle it. Old lady, don't waste time."

The Duke of England was on the other side of the screen. If there was any objection, he would have raised it long ago. If he didn't speak at this moment, he was obviously conniving at the development of this matter.

The British Duke and Madam felt extremely aggrieved, but she couldn't disobey the British Duke's wishes, so she could only say: "That's fine." She turned her head and glanced at the old mother who was following her.

Cao Yu wanted to go back inside the screen.

That old mother is the companion of the British Duke's wife, and her husband's family name is Mei, so now everyone calls her Madam Mei, and she is extremely embarrassing among the servants of the British Duke's government.

Arriving at Song Ke'er's side, Mama Mei said politely: "Miss Song, you heard that too, this old servant will arrange for someone to take you back home."

Song Ke'er's face was flushed with anger, how could she have imagined that the person who had just arrived on the other side of the screen was Huo Shijiu, and Huo Shijiu actually wanted to drive her away?
She bit her lip, didn't move, and said stubbornly: "Could it be that there is a law in the Yan Dynasty that people are not allowed to chat. The British ladies and wives hold a banquet, so naturally they invite all the wives and ladies to come and talk freely. What I said It's not a rumor, but the truth, is it possible that the shrew's reputation is only today?"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a chuckle from the other side of the screen.

All the women looked in the direction of the screen, and saw a handsome man in a silver-gray fur collar and snow fur slowly walked out of the screen and stood beside the screen, followed by the handsome scholar just now.

"Wu'er, come here." Huo Shijiu stretched out his hand to Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu put down the teacup, walked towards Huo Shijiu with a smile.Put your hand in his palm.

The four servant girls, Bingsong and Luorui, approached to salute.Huo Jiujiu winked at Bingsong.

Bingsong immediately understood, went to fetch Jiang Wu's scarlet red and white fox fur cloak, and put it on for her.

Huo Shijiu helped Jiang Wu tie the ribbon on her neckline, then took her hand and said: "Someone here makes you unhappy, let's stop playing and go home."

One sentence home, said very gently.

He obviously didn't speak loudly, and he didn't insist on sending Song Ke'er back to the Marquis of Xinchang, but such a domineering and inconsiderate protection of others' feelings really made all the women present envy and hate.

Jiang Wu's smile widened, and she said with a smile: "Okay, go home."

Huo Jiujiu took her hand and walked towards the side door, and the four servant girls naturally followed closely behind.

People were still in a daze, they didn't expect that Huo Shijiu really left as soon as he said it, even if it was a banquet in the British government, he didn't save face.

The Duchess of England clenched her fist tightly, and the ring hurt her fingers.

Because of the difference between men and women and the fear of Huo Shijiu, no one dared to stop them.

Seeing that two figures, one red and one silver gray, were about to come down Danchi, the Duke of England came forward and said with a smile, "Jin Ning Hou stay a step."

Huo Shijiu turned around, still holding Jiang Wu's hand, and said with a smile: "My lord, I'm being rude today, but Wu'er is the flesh of my heart, and I can't bear to say a serious word myself. I can't bear to bully her like this, and you know my temperament, if it wasn't at your house today, I would respect you and the old lady, and I would have pulled out anyone who dared to say Wu'er right and wrong. She's tongue out."

Madness!

All the ladies in the house also came to the door.

But seeing the man who is as handsome as jade and as elegant as a fairy say such arrogant words with a smile on his face, they couldn't hate it.

The Duke of England was even more unexpected, and said with a smile: "After all, we did not treat guests well. If Marquis Jin Ning took his wife back like this, wouldn't it be too wronged for you. Besides, the fault today is indeed not with Marquis Jin Ning. "Turning back and commanding: "Come here, send Miss Song back."
