The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother
Chapter 22 Mrs. Hou hides a knife in her smile
Three days later, the main entrance of Jiang Mansion.
Looking at Jiang Shiying who had arrived late, Mrs. Jiang was not annoyed at all. Instead, she asked with concern: "Why aren't you wearing the butterfly skirt I had someone send you? Don't you like it?"
"How could it be?" Jiang Shiying denied: "My daughter likes it very much, thank you mother for your kindness. It's a pity that my daughter is clumsy and accidentally tore the skirt."
As she spoke, she sighed regretfully.
Mrs. Jiang patted her hand comfortingly: "If it's broken, let it be broken. It's just a piece of clothing, so don't take it to heart."
As he said that, he looked at the jewelry on her head again. Feeling a little nervous, he asked, "Where's that set of ruby jewelry? Why don't I see you wearing it?"
"That turban is too luxurious. My daughter is worried that it is too grand."
"It's better to be more luxurious, just in line with your current status." After saying that, Mrs. Jiang ordered Qiu Yu: "While there is still some time, go to Fufengyuan to get the mask and put it on the county master."
"Wait a minute." Jiang Shiying stopped Qiu Yu: "Just take the red earrings. If you have to change the whole set of hair, you will have to take it apart and comb it again, which is really troublesome."
"Then take the ear hairpin and the dragonfly hairpin together. The hairpin on your head is still too plain." Mrs. Jiang added.
Jiang Shiying didn't stop her this time, Qiu Yu followed the order and left.
At this time, Mrs. Jiang finally had time to look at Jiang Shiyue, who was waiting on the side: "Why are the three girls here too? I remember that your name was not on the post of Enqinghou Mansion."
Jiang Shiyue felt sour and astringent, and looked at Jiang Shiying for help.
"This is my first time going to the flower viewing party at Enqinghou Mansion, and I also want my third sister to be my companion." Jiang Shiying said with a smile.
Mrs. Jiang said nothing more.
After Qiu Yu fetched the red eared hairpin and the dragonfly hairpin, Mrs. Jiang watched her put them on Jiang Shiying, and then the group set off for the other courtyard of Enqinghou Mansion.
When Jiang Mansion's carriage arrived, there was already a lot of people outside the courtyard.
Several people got off the carriage and walked towards the door of the other courtyard.
Before they reached it, they heard a voice coming from behind.
"Sister, you've got it."
Following the sound, I saw that it was Mrs. Qingyang Hou, accompanied by several maids and nuns.
"There are some things that delayed me when I went out." Mrs. Jiang did not go into details.
"I haven't seen the county master for a long time. It's really getting more exciting." Mrs. Qingyang Hou looked at Jiang Shiying cordially, and there was no sign that the two families were in trouble some time ago.
"I've met Madam." Sisters Jiang Shiying and Jiang Shiyue were both slightly blessed, being gentle and polite juniors.
Mrs. Qingyang Hou seemed not to have seen Jiang Shiyue, and only said to Jiang Shiying: "As soon as I saw the county master, I liked him very much."
With that said, he took off the jade bracelet on his hand and put it on Jiang Shiying's wrist.
Jiang Shiying avoided it: "Madam, you are too polite."
"The county master refuses to accept my bracelet. Is he still blaming the rudeness of the Hou Mansion some time ago?" Mrs. Qingyang Hou asked.
This is an interesting thing to say.
In the riot in Jiang Mansion some time ago, Jiang Shiying was clearly the one who benefited. He mocked and threatened Marquis Qingyang with force and took advantage.
Now Mrs. Qingyang Hou's attitude seems to be reversed, and her attitude seems too low.
Jiang Shiying knew in her heart that if something went wrong, there would be a monster.
She did not answer Madam Qingyang Hou's words, but covered her lips with a handkerchief and said, "I don't know what Madam is talking about."
Mrs. Qingyang Hou was already very impatient, but she still had to pretend to be a kind elder and said: "Then just treat me as the elder and insist on giving gifts to the younger ones! The elders dare not say no to the gifts, but also return them. Please the County Lord please don’t refuse.”
"Then Madam, please don't be too unfavorable to one another." After saying that, she pulled Jiang Shiyue beside her, who was extremely embarrassed, and said, "My third sister is also here. Does Madam only like me and not my third sister?"
Mrs. Qingyang Hou thought to herself, both of you crawled out of your aunt's belly, and I don't like either of you.
But she could only force out a loving smile, took off another gold bracelet from her hand, took Jiang Shiyue's hand and brought it up to her, saying: "All the girls in Jiang Mansion are so well-off. Of course I like the girl too."
Then, Jiang Shiying took Jiang Shiyue's other hand and put on the jade bracelet that Mrs. Qingyang Hou had just given her.
"I also like my third sister's tightness, so I borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha."
Jiang Shiyue was an embarrassing person who was not noticed just now, but in an instant she became the center of attention for several people.
She lowered her head slightly, gave a blessing, and said: "Shiyue, thank you madam, thank you second sister."
Jiang Shi's eyes flashed: "Madam, you won't blame me for borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, right?"
Mrs. Qingyang Hou's face was almost stiff, but she could only wave her hands and said: "Of course not."
The group of people walked towards the courtyard together, and just after passing the second gate, they saw a young woman wearing a honey-colored flowered skirt coming towards them. It was Su, the wife of the prince of Enqinghou Mansion.
Mrs. Su first greeted each other with Mrs. Qingyang Hou and Mrs. Jiang, and asked the two sisters Jiang Shiying attentively one by one. Then she said to Jiang Shiying: "This is like meeting the county master. He is really a wonderful person." Son."
Ever since Jiang Shiying was granted the title of county lord, Enqinghou Mansion would send people to Jiang Shiying's doorstep from time to time. Sometimes it’s jewelry, sometimes it’s fresh fruits, sometimes it’s some produce from one’s own farm. It was obvious that she was thinking of saving Prince Jing.
"Hello, Madam Prince, thank you madam for thinking of me." Jiang Shiying blessed her.
Su held her hand and said, "Don't be so polite. If the county master doesn't mind, can you call me Sister Su?"
"Sister Su, please don't call me County Lord. Please call me Aying."
Mrs. Su personally led a few people inside, and after a while, they arrived in the garden.
She introduced today's arrangements to several people one by one, and left a few maids for Mrs. Qingyanghou, Mrs. Jiang, and Jiang Shiyue. Then she said: "The two madams and the third young lady, just be... It's my own home, so don't be polite. It's just my sister, I have to lend it to me for a while. My ancestors have been looking forward to her."
After a while, Mrs. Su took Jiang Shiying to where the old lady of the Hou Mansion was, and Madam Hou was also here.
"I've met the old lady, I've met Madam Hou."
Before Jiang Shi had finished giving the gift, he was stopped by Mrs. Enqinghou: "Good boy, please don't be so polite."
The old lady of Marquis Enqing was sitting at the top, and her eyebrows were somewhat similar to those of the Queen Mother. Her hair is completely white, but her eyes are not cloudy.
At this time, the old lady looked at Jiang Shiying with a smile. Thinking of the words coming from the palace, and looking at this extraordinary face, the original five points of enthusiasm turned into eight points, and said: "Good girl, thank you very much. Saved His Highness Prince Jing.”
Jiang Shiying did not take any credit and said, "You are too polite. No matter who meets His Highness that day, they will not ignore it."
The old lady asked her to come forward, then took off a mutton-fat carved jade pendant from her body and put it into Jiang Shiying's hand.
"That was sent back by the Queen Mother on your sixtieth birthday." Mrs. Enqinghou said in surprise.
Hearing this, Jiang Shiying hurriedly wanted to refuse, but couldn't even say anything.
But the old lady said without any doubt: "Good boy, you deserve it."
After saying a few words, a girl with a gentle temperament walked into the small hall, bowed to the old lady and Madam Hou, and said: "Grandma, mother."
Then she looked at Jiang Shiying and said, "This must be the Lord of Jiayi County. Hello, Lord, I am Shen Xi."
Shen Xi is the eldest daughter of the Enqinghou Mansion, the niece of the Queen Mother, and the cousin of His Majesty.
However, the Enqing Hou Mansion had no intention of sending her to the palace, but arranged a marriage for her early.
"Hello, Miss Shen."
"The county master is so good-looking. When I saw the county master just now, I realized that what the ancients said about the fish sinking and the goose closing the moon and the flowers shy is actually not a lie."
Jiang Shiying said generously: "Thank you very much for the compliment, Miss Shen. Miss Shen is also very charming and extraordinary."
Seeing that the two of them seemed to be in agreement, Mrs. Enqing Hou said, "Xi'er, grandma will hand over the county lord to you today. You must entertain her well."
"Don't worry, grandma." Shen Xi agreed, and then said to Jiang Shiying: "I will take the county master to play in the garden. There is a place where the peonies are blooming very well, and many sisters are there."
When the two of them approached the peonies, they no longer called each other County Lord and Miss Shen, but Sister Aying and Sister Xi.
More than ten girls gathered in the pavilion next to the peony bushes.
Seeing them coming, a girl in a yellow shirt said, "I was also wondering why we are the only ones here and the host's family is nowhere to be seen. It turns out he went to meet his new sister without telling us."
