Chapter 567 The smell of gunpowder smoke
Because of the arrival of Mrs. Guo and her daughter, Governor Guo's house in Ningmenfu City became lively. Before the April 20th banquet, there were female relatives of officials and aristocratic families coming to visit.
The affairs of the Duke's Mansion naturally attracted people's attention and talked about it. Even if Daohua didn't go out, she still heard a lot of gossip. Among them, the one she heard the most was the praise of Miss Guo from the wives of various families.
What kind of person is born with a beautiful appearance and smooth muscles and bones; what kind of person is delicate and elegant, with good character; what kind of person is even more flattering and exaggerated, it is said that no woman in Zhongzhou can match it.
After hearing this, Daohua smiled and put it behind her. At the moment, she was busy with business and had no time for gossip.
Grandma Gu's old illness seems to have relapsed. The last time she went to Taohua Village, Daohua saw that she was getting thinner and thinner. The master couldn't hide the worry and anxiety in her eyes. Now she is thinking hard about how to match her medicinal diet to alleviate Grandma Gu's condition. At the same time,
It can also replenish her body.
Daohua carefully selected the prepared space medicinal materials, and took out a lot of food grown in the space. She was packing them now, preparing to attend the Guo Mansion's banquet and then go to Taohua Village.
After finishing the work, it was already time for dinner.
On the way to Songheyuan, Wang Maner talked about the gossip he heard today: "Girl, Ya Po brought many maids aged fifteen or sixteen into the young prince's mansion today."
Daohua raised her eyebrows: "There is not a single maid in Xiao Yeyang's mansion. From the perspective of the two nuns from the palace, this is probably wrong and abnormal."
Wang Maner curled her lips: "The young prince is not in the house now, so the two nuns can make decisions privately, and they are not afraid that the young prince will come back and blame them."
Daohua smiled: "They are not ordinary nuns. One represents the Queen Mother and the other represents the Emperor. Even if Xiao Yeyang is the master, he does not dare to be too harsh. Besides, they are here to take care of Xiao
In the daily life of Yeyang, the manpower in the mansion is not enough, so adding a few maids to the mansion to serve as appropriate can be regarded as a good reason."
Wang Maner frowned and pouted: "Girl, I heard that the maids Ya Po brought are all pretty good-looking."
Daohua turned to look at her and said amusedly: "What are you worried about?"
Wang Man'er moved her lips, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Girl, I have heard a lot from the maids of many other officials' families... about maids seducing their masters, some shameless ones, and even...
....."
Daohua asked with a smile: "What else?"
Wang Man'er frowned: "He even shamelessly climbed into the master's bed." After speaking, he looked worried, "There are already four maids in the palace, and now we have to choose so many maids. If the young prince...
..."
After saying that, he paused and looked at the rice flowers, "What will happen if the young prince gets caught?"
Looking at Wang Man'er who looked worried, Daohua was speechless: "What's there to worry about? If Xiao Yeyang doesn't have that intention, who can make him succeed?"
Wang Man'er looked at the way his girl didn't take it seriously and was a little worried: "What if the young prince can't control it?" After saying that, his face turned red.
She is older than the girl and knows more than the girl. In addition, she often interacts with the women in the house, and she has heard more or less about the affairs of men and women.
Daohua frowned, was silent for a while and murmured: "What is a man who is unclean both physically and mentally? What else can he do with it?" After saying that, he speeded up and stopped talking.
......
On April 20th, the female members of the Yan family accompanied Mrs. Li to the Guo Mansion for a banquet. Mrs. Guo did not come out to receive the guests, but sent the housekeeper to usher them in.
"Mrs. Guo really maintains her identity. When we went to Dong's house for a banquet, Mrs. Dong came to welcome us in person."
Yan Yile murmured quietly.
Yan Yihuan glared at her sister, pulled her a few steps behind everyone, and then whispered: "The Guo family comes from Dingguo Palace and has a distinguished status. Naturally, they will not condescend to come out to pick up people. Stop talking nonsense. Be careful.
If my aunt finds out, she will send you home."
Yan Yile curled her lips and said nothing more.
Soon, everyone in the Yan family saw Mrs. Guo and her daughter.
As soon as they met, Mrs. Guo cordially took Mrs. Li's hand and greeted her enthusiastically.
Mrs. Li knew that this might be because her family had helped Governor Guo before, so she responded appropriately with a smile.
When Mrs. Guo saw that Mrs. Li didn't get close to her because of her, she hurriedly climbed up. The smile on her face became bigger. People who know how to get along are easy to get along with. In the future, she would not mind getting closer to her more, and then her eyes moved.
, when he saw the rice flowers behind him, his eyes couldn't help but flash.
The rumors from the outside world are indeed true. The eldest girl of the Yan family really looks good.
At this moment, Guo Xueming is also looking at the rice flowers.
Of course Daohua is also sizing up this girl from the Duke's family.
The two of them looked at each other, and then raised a decent smile on their faces at the same time.
Mrs. Guo saw that Daohua's progress and retreat were measured, her behavior was generous, and her bearing was not inferior to that of her daughter. When she thought of the rumors that Yeyang and the Yan family were close, she frowned slightly.
According to her wishes, she didn't really want to tell Ye Yang about her daughter. Firstly, it was because of Prince Heping's troubled sister-in-law, and secondly, Xiao Yeyang's bad character when he was a child.
But now that her daughter's marriage is not going well, and Yeyang is the candidate, she doesn't want him to get involved with other girls.
It seems that she needs to find out more about the relationship between Yeyang and the girls of the Yan family.
Although she was thinking about so much in her heart, Mrs. Guo didn't show any emotion on her face. She smiled and greeted Mrs. Li and others.
Here, Guo Xueming also led Daohua and others to where the girls were staying.
As soon as Daohua arrived, several girls stood up and came over to say hello with a smile.
Seeing that Daohua was very popular, Guo Xueming still had a smile on his face.
As for Daohua, she was also paying attention to Guo Xueming. When she saw that she had a spring-like smile and did not neglect any of the girls present, her attitude was neither far nor close, and she always maintained a comfortable distance. She couldn't help but praise in her heart, she is indeed worthy of it.
She is a girl from the Duke's Mansion, she is really considerate of everything.
At noon, when Mrs. Guo saw that all the guests had arrived, she prepared to lead everyone to have a meal.
However, at this time, a housekeeper came over quickly and whispered a few words in Mrs. Guo's ear. Daohua saw cracks in the perfect smile on Mrs. Guo's face, and she couldn't help but become curious.
Soon, everyone saw Mrs. Jiang and her daughter walking over with a smile.
"Sister Yuan, you didn't even tell me when you came to Zhongzhou, and you didn't invite me to the banquet today, but I shamelessly came here myself."
As soon as she arrived, Mrs. Jiang smiled and spoke first.
Mrs. Guo endured the anger in her heart and said with a smile: "I don't dare to invite Mrs. Jiang rashly. The distance from the provincial capital to Ningmen Palace is not short. If you have any accidents on the way, ten of us will
, I can’t afford it.”
Mrs. Jiang answered with a smile: "Thank you, Sister Yuan, for worrying. You are right. It was indeed quite a hassle to come to Ningmen Mansion from the provincial capital. However, this problem has been solved now."
As he spoke, he looked at the others present with a smile.
"As you all know, my Jingwan is a little weak. Since coming to Zhongzhou, my husband has been asking around. Not long ago, he finally found a famous doctor in Ningmen Mansion. Jingwan and I will live in the house for a while.
Ningmen Mansion."
Hearing this, everyone looked surprised, and Mrs. Guo's temples jumped a few times.
