The Village Doctress Chapter 506: The Poetry Club of Yongding Houfu (1)
When Lin Fufu heard her say this, he thumped in his heart, "It's broken!"
"Auntie, sixteen years old is still young, but she is only fifteen years old." Lin Fufu hurriedly said.
"My child, what's the rush? My aunt won't let you marry early, and I haven't started preparing the dowry yet." Princess Ruoshui couldn't help laughing when she saw that Lin Fufu's anxious face didn't look like a writer.
Lin Fufu breathed a sigh of relief, and cast a coquettish look at Princess Ruoshui, "Auntie, you scared me to death, and thought you really wanted to marry me early."
Princess Ruoshui raised her eyebrows with a smile, supported Lin Fufu's shoulder and said, "Although I won't marry you early, the candidate for the county horse must be investigated carefully now."
Lin Fujin broke out in a cold sweat again when he heard that Princess Ruoshui was going to give her a candidate to inspect the county horse in Dawei. If Huangfujin found out about this news, he might go crazy.
If you can't say it, just **** her and take her to Beirong...
Thinking of this, Lin Fufu could not help but shudder.
"What's the matter, are you cold? You don't have enough clothes? Then add a bijia inside..." Seeing this, Princess Ruoshui immediately called for someone to add clothes to Lin Fufu.
Seeing her being so nervous, Lin Fufu was moved and could not laugh or cry.
But fortunately, Princess Ruoshui no longer entangled in the issue of the county horse.
Accompanying Lin Fufu to the Yongding Hou Mansion were Nanny Nan and Luoying girl. After arriving at the Yongding Hou Mansion, the concierge seemed to be specially waiting for Lin Fufu who came from the Eldest Princess Mansion.
So when she got out of the carriage, Gui Tong, the eldest lady of the Yongding Hou Mansion, led a group of ladies from the Gui Mansion to greet her.
"Greetings to Princess Jiahe!" Gui Tong dressed up more beautifully than flowers today, and she was also very respectful to Lin Fufu, and she bowed instead of blessing.
This is exactly the same as the one who behaved in the Princess's mansion on the fifteenth day.
Lin Fufu signaled to Gui Tong that you don't have to be polite, and Gui Tong got up with a smile, then turned to look at her cousins and said, "This is Princess Jiahe, don't you all clamor to see him today? I finally saw you."
It turned out that on the 15th day, except for the young ladies of the Yongdinghou lineage, the ladies of the side branch were not eligible to receive the invitation from the Princess's Mansion.
Of course Gui Tong said this, but he did it on purpose to please Lin Fufu.
But it also speaks to the minds of the ladies of the Gui family. Many of their fathers rely on the rewards of the Yongding Hou Mansion to do their jobs, and they give them a bite to eat. For Lin Fufu, who has been named The princess's people naturally want to curry favor.
Lin Fufu looked at them gently and smiled, and under Gui Tong's guidance, he entered the Yongding Hou Mansion.
The old lady of Yongding Hou was waiting by the hanging flower gate with a few daughters-in-law. Seeing Lin Fufu wearing the royal princess palace dress specially made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the dress was low-key and luxurious. Even the old lady of Yongding Hou was calm The old fox couldn't help but show unwillingness and jealousy in his old eyes.
So she stood there for a long while without saying hello to Lin Fufu, and the old lady of Yongding Hou didn't say hello, and her daughters-in-law didn't say hello either.
In fact, although Mrs. Yongding Hou is an elder, even if she is a second-rank Mrs. Hou according to her rank, Lin Fufu's rank is from the first rank, which is still higher than that of Yongding Mrs. Hou.
So Lin Fufu didn't need to greet her first.
But Lin Fufu didn't care about this, she also knew what the old lady Yongdinghou was thinking, so she greeted the old lady with a smile.
Her demeanor is calm and elegant, with a see-through smile on her face, which makes the old lady of Yongding Hou blush.
Seeing that she was the first to say hello, the eldest lady of the Gui family, Gui Tong's mother, hurriedly smiled and praised, "It's still Her Royal Highness who can take care of people. Princess Jiahe really respects the elders."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene became weird.
Lin Fufu didn't know what was going on in her mind. In fact, she was jealous of Gui Tong because of what happened to her, so she didn't want to salute and say hello to her.
Nurse Nan and Luo Ying who were beside Lin Fufu frowned tightly, especially Nan Nan, when she was about to speak for Lin Fufu, she was interrupted by Lin Fufu's gentle words up.
"Thank you for your compliment, Mrs. Fufu thinks that respecting the elders and respecting courtesy is a fine tradition of our Great Wei. In fact, there is nothing to praise."
Uncle Gui is only a military officer of the fifth rank, and her rank is also a child of the fifth rank. If the old lady of Yongding Hou is not much lower than Lin Fufu in rank, and she is an elder, Lin Fufu can greet her first without hesitation .
But the ranks of the wives of the Gui family are lower than the other, and they still want to use their status as elders not to say hello to Lin Fufu, which is not in harmony with etiquette.
Lin Fufu is reminding Mrs. Gui: You have saluted me.
If you were overwhelmed by the power of these women just after entering the Yongding Hou Mansion today, it would be a big joke.
Madam Gui is not stupid, on the contrary, she is very smart and shrewd. After hearing Lin Fufu's smiling reminder, her face froze.
Seeing this, the sisters-in-law who followed her also knew that the newly appointed Princess Jiahe was not a soft persimmon, and without waiting for Mrs. Gui, they also greeted Lin Fufu with a smile .
When Mrs. Gui saw this, she bit her lips so hard that the handkerchief on her hand was almost torn to pieces.
But Lin Fufu told the other wives not to be too polite, while looking at her with a smile, he didn't say anything at all because she was also an elder.
Madam Gui was even more angry.
Although with her intelligence, she knew that at this time, for the sake of the Yongding Houfu's face, it would be best if she hurriedly invited this Bodhisattva to the backyard.
But please an's voice is blocked in the throat and can't come out.
The old lady of Yongding Hou saw that things didn’t look right here, so she immediately glared at Mrs. Gui, “Master, I’m afraid you’re so stupid to see Princess Jiahe happy, so why don’t you hurry up and invite Jiahe? The princess is going in to sit, the ladies must be waiting anxiously."
At this time, Gui Tong went up and touched Mrs. Gui's arm, Mrs. Gui couldn't do it, so she reluctantly smiled and gave Lin Fufu a half-blessing.
Lin Fufu just let her go, put his hands up, and said with a smile on his face, "Madam Gui is really kind."
Her tone was drawl, she was smiling, but the look in her eyes was not what she meant, she was clearly mocking them for their lack of manners.
Now it's not only Mrs. Gui, but also the other ladies are embarrassed and flustered.
Lady Yongding Hou's face was even more ugly.
Lin Fufu didn't care about her face, and smiled to himself. Seeing this, Gui Tong immediately led Lin Fufu to the back garden, fearing that something might happen again.
"Princess Jiahe, the chrysanthemums in the Princess's mansion are incomparable, and our Yongdinghou mansion naturally does not have them, but my grandfather likes begonias. Although begonias bloom in July, my grandfather carefully cultivated dozens of chrysanthemums. A late flowering begonia, it just bloomed in the last few days." Gui Tong explained to Lin Fufu while guiding her.
There was a slight smile on the corner of Lin Fufu's lips, seemingly unintentionally said: "Since it is the begonia beloved by the old master, it would be bad if we stumbled."
Gui Tong immediately said: "It's okay, my grandfather learned that my grandmother wanted to replace half of the poetry club for my sisters, so he moved out all the treasures of his old husband's house. Don't worry about the Princess, everyone Seeing Qiu Haitang write more poems of praise, he will be happy."
Seeing Gui Tong's impatient tone, Lin Fufu turned his head and glanced at her indifferently.
But I told myself in my heart that no matter who is invited to enjoy the flowers later, I should be careful.
After Gui Tong invited Lin Fufu to the back garden, groups of ladies in the back garden came over to salute and say hello to her.
Among them, several young ladies from the Meng family walked in front, and several young ladies from the Shangshu family followed behind. However, because Qiu Yuyu was on good terms with the young ladies of the Meng family, Miss Meng Shisan pulled her into their group. went.
Lin Fufu was also very happy to see them. Before they started blessing ceremony, Lin Fufu stopped them.
Her humble attitude has unintentionally won the favor of more young ladies, but the young ladies of the Gui family all had gloomy faces dripping water when they saw this.
Just outside, the Princess Jiahe was not so humble to their mother, and even pretended to suppress their mother and elders deliberately.
Among them, Guishan was the most irritable. Seeing that Lin Fufu and the ladies were laughing at Yan Yan, it was very dazzling, so she went up and sneered: "Princess, it's still true, these ladies are so proud of you. When I saw my mother and some uncles and aunts, I was waiting for them to salute and say hello to you!"
When all the young ladies heard Gui Shan say all these things regardless of the occasion, they all felt that the third lady of the Gui family was really a very stupid person, and they didn't want to make friends with her in private.
But Guishan didn't realize that at this time, she was already disgusted by all the noble ladies in Kyoto.
She even thought she was very smart, so she asked Lin Fufu this question before Gui Tong did.
At this time, she also ignored the old lady Yongding Hou's warning, and she stared proudly at Lin Fufu, waiting for her answer.
Lin Fufu shook his head and smiled slightly, looked at Gui Shan and said gently: "Miss Gui San misunderstood, the Gospel is not waiting for the wives in the mansion to greet the Gospel. It's just a national ceremony, even if you read the Gospel again The elders and wives are elders, so you can't disregard the national rites and laws and explain the greetings of the wives?"
As soon as she said this, those noble ladies couldn't help nodding their heads, and the smart and clever ones immediately heard from Lin Fufu's words that the wives of the Yongding Hou's Mansion relied on being the Princess Jiahe Her elders don't want to salute her!
They looked at Guitong and Guishan with even more contempt. Whether it was Miss Gui or Miss Gui, their mothers were at most a fifth-rank child, and they wanted to use their status as elders to deny Jiahe County Are they worthy of the Lord's salute?
Seeing Gui Shan being stupid again, Gui Tong was so angry that he almost went up to tear her up.
But she also knows that on this occasion, she must not do something inappropriate to destroy today's poetry club.
