But Wu Yueniang didn't know such court system, so she laughed and said: "It's not worth anything, even if Shang Juren's family invited Zhao Guan's family, after all, we women don't want to do it. Naturally, the men are outside, and the guests are listening to the opera in the inner hall, how can there be a ceremony for men and women to sit at the same table?"

It is also reasonable for Yulou to hear the words, because it is the guest's car, and Shang Juren's Ding leads him, but he comes up the back street and enters through the corner gate.

The handlebars were led by the servant, and the horses were parked, and the servant retreated again. Seeing that there was no one in the Yulou, Xiaoluan, who was behind the carriage, was ordered to support her, jumped out of the cart, took the footstool, and helped Yueniang down. He ordered the handlebars to wait here, and took the two girls Yuxiao and Xiaoluan who followed the car, and were led by Shangju's servants to the inner room.

Meng Yulou supported Yueniang all the way, and went in with the servant woman, but he watched Shangju's family with a cold eye. Although the loyalty has been passed down for a long time, and the poems and books have been handed down for generations, it is more noble, and it is not as good as the gold slaves and silver maidservants in the house of his husband. The three teas and six meals are well served. Though Shangju was married to a wealthy family, he was never very attached to his wife's natal family's financial resources, but he was a scholar with a strong character.

Thinking in my heart, I have already come to the inner house, and the first listener smiled and said: "I was muttering about it just now, but I just came here..." The girl opened the curtain, but it was Xia Qianhu's wife.

Wu Yueniang and Meng Yulou looked at each other without saying a word, but she secretly said in her heart: "This is a great way to raise a lady, and I have invited people here in the post, and I have come out to welcome them out of the landlord's kindness. I have the heart to compete with myself..."

On the face, she also greeted with spring breeze, and took Mrs. Xia Qianhu's hand to say goodbye to each other. The Mrs. Xia Qianhu looked at Yueniang's belly and smiled: "I'm afraid the month is here, but I want to congratulate you, Mrs. Got a real brother."

Yue Niang laughed and said: "Ma'am, this is wrong. Now the official brother from the sixth room is treated like his own child by the slave family. In the future, with his brother, there will be a place to be a companion. "Several women came in after talking and laughing.

When Meng Yulou raised his eyes, he was taken aback, but he saw that in the boudoir of Shang Juren's wife, there was a Nanjing gold lacquer painted Babu bed, which was the same as the one where he slept with his ex-husband in Yang's house first. One piece is exactly the same, and I think it is also carefully crafted by the best local craftsmen.

At that time, in order to please her boudoir, my ex-husband spent more than a hundred or two dollars to buy this delicate thing for her when he was not doing business. sleep.That Meng Yulou was originally a frugal lady, she couldn't bear it, and she was grateful for her husband's great love, so she cherished this thing very much, and when she remarried that day, she would also bring it to Ximen's house as a precious dowry, but it was a pity that she was rushing When the eldest sister got married, she couldn't prepare the dowry for a while, so she took this thing with her. Seeing you now, I felt emotional for a while.

I was staring blankly, but I saw a woman turned out of the curtain, dressed in gorgeous clothes, with gold and jade on her head, and the most prominent thing in it was the golden hairpin that Yulou cut off.When you look closely, it's just that the appearance is ordinary, and there is nothing extraordinary about it. Talking about Biyulou, even Wu Yueniang is ten times more beautiful than him.

When the two saw this, they knew in their hearts that this was Shangjuren's wife. Because they saw the woman's appearance and appearance, they were able to come forward, and seeing the two people's makeup, they knew that Yueniang was the main wife, and because she was upright and upright, she said the way of Wanfu : "This is Mrs. Ximen? I'll pay my respects."

Seeing this, Yueniang hurriedly returned the gift, she went forward to hold hands, the two got up, and introduced her: "This is the third sister in my family. I heard that the eldest lady often mentions her in her boudoir, so I brought her for a stroll. Stained with the noble air of a scholarly family."

As soon as the Shangjuren lady came out, she had already glanced up and down, left and left, and only looked at Sanjie Meng eight or sixty-four times from inside to outside. I only took a glimpse of the third sister's lotus jade face, and slowly made a posture to say Wanfu.

Meng Yulou is such a smart person, he knew in his heart that she insisted on being the main wife, and she didn't want to talk to him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him and said with a smile: "The eldest lady has an order, I can't afford it, please don't be polite. Please sit down and talk."

The Shang Juren lady nodded because she looked a little pale, and for a while, everyone sat down as the guest and the host, and the girl stewed tea to eat.

Mrs. Shang Juren told the girl, "Take these two young ladies from Ximen's mansion and come back later after dinner." The girl agreed and led Yuxiao and Xiaoluan out.

Mrs. Xia Qianhu said with a smile: "In the past, the Juren lady often talked about the third sister, but now she sees her identity, and she has nothing to say?" The Shang Juren lady said with a smile: "My family originally wanted to discuss friendship with the third sister. Who would have thought that seeing her with such a fairy-like appearance and character today, I don't know where to start."

As he spoke, he glanced backward at Wu Yueniang.

Seeing this, Yulou sneered in her heart and said: "This woman is really powerful. Although the saying goes that a good wife and a beautiful concubine, if you praise the other side's good birth in front of a big lady, you will have evil intentions in your heart..." Because of thinking, she smiled and said : "Your wife compares the sky to the earth, how dare the slave family be, if it's so bad, the slave family serves our elder sister to comb hair and wash face every day, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for my feet..."

That Wu Yueniang was unhappy because of the words of Juren's wife. After hearing Yulou's words, although she knew that she was speaking of self-effacing, she was happy in her heart. What do I do, the third girl has no rules, and I won't dare to take you out tomorrow."

Seeing that Meng Yulou behaved generously and spoke decently, the lady of Shangjuren couldn't get any better of her own advantage, so she was speechless in embarrassment. Seeing that there was nothing to say during the banquet, Yueniang could only strike up a conversation and said with a smile:

"When the third sister just passed the door, she brought such a golden lacquer drawing bed, didn't she? It's a pity that she hadn't warmed it up yet, so she asked for it from your ungrateful master, and stayed with the eldest sister. I'll see you in the boudoir of Juren's wife."

When the Shangjuren lady heard the compliments on the things in her room, she regained her spirits, and said with a smile: "It's not worth anything. It was originally accompanied by my natal family. It was a marriage discussion that day. I will not hide it from my sisters. The slave's family is under the parents In the past two decades, the mother-in-law who came to be a matchmaker also broke through the threshold, but although the father of the slave family was an imperial businessman, he was so noble. "Yuanji" is in the womb, so the boss insisted on recruiting a romantic and elegant son-in-law, and just took advantage of his old man's heart. After many years of choosing, he also missed the youth of the slave family.

It just so happened that my husband's family came to propose marriage. Although it was a continuation, it was rare to come from a noble and scholarly family. Because my father saw this item, he didn't think about anything else, so he paid the dowry and married me off because My husband doesn't like extravagance, and he doesn't accept all the treasures of gold and jade at home, but my mother loves me, because she said that since I can't take the things outside of me, I should take the bedding that I have slept in since I was a child. The junk was brought. "

Meng Yulou listened, and thought to himself that this lady Shangjuren might have inquired about it from somewhere, and she remarried that day, and she accompanied a Babu bed, because she didn't know where to buy such a precious thing, so it was rare to be with her. The one at home is exactly the same, but there is a flaw in what she said. When my ex-husband brought it back from Nanjing, he said that such a carved pattern and gold-painted pattern were the latest in the day, but the woman said that this thing was used since childhood. Come on, isn't it a slap in the face?

Thinking of this point, she smiled at Yueniang because she didn't know what to do: "This precious thing is exactly the same as the one in my slave's house back then, but my husband coaxed me back then, saying that this thing is the latest thing in Nanjing." Style, now that I have heard the story of Mrs. Juren, I know that I was deceived by sweet words that day..."

When Wu Yueniang heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle, and she was afraid that Shangjuren's wife would lose face, so she quickly suppressed her smile and said, "Third sister's words are true. Most men's families are just lying to others with sweet words. Let's eat it." It's so rare for the master to have a secret loss, if he hadn't come to the right place today, I'm afraid Sanjie will be deceived by him for the rest of her life."

The Shangjuren lady was already blushing with shame after listening to the two jokes that you came and said, and she didn't want to get angry, so she had to bear it, bowed her head and said nothing.

The lady Xia Qianhu who was on the side also saw some clues, and it was a bit difficult to be on the side, because she flirted with him and said with a smile: "You rich and noble families are talking so lively, if you didn't see this thing at the house of Mrs. Juren, I don't believe that there are such luxurious objects. It can be seen that both of you are blessed people, unlike our master who was born in martial arts and was a poor scholar. Now he lives on the meager salary of the imperial court. Such precious things , I dare not even think about it.”

Yueniang heard the words and said humbly: "Where is the Qianhu lady? If it weren't for your Qianhu adults and your wives, our two families may not be destined to form a family with children. When the two children grow up and get married, we will be a family." People? That day there was a big Qiao family who also came to propose marriage. My husband said that although his family is rich, he is not from an official background. The superior is the right one, so I pushed Qiao Dahu's family and made an engagement with the noble family."

The two talked enthusiastically, but the face of Mrs. Shang Juren on the side was red and white. I don't know if this Mrs. Ximen is using the past to satirize the present or something. Although rich, the family background is not noble, it is only the first time we meet, and it is not easy to get annoyed with her, so I hold back my breath, but ask Meng Yulou, who is watching coldly, to look at it, and when I want to laugh, it is not funny, so I have to Pretending to be eating sunflower seeds, he reluctantly endured it.
