Chapter 1025 Mrs. Diplomacy
In the past, she longed for this kind of neglect and liked to be quiet and quiet. But now she is Mrs. Lin, representing the face of the Lin family, but she cannot be so unpresent.
She had never had any malicious intentions towards this world. Faced with this little neglect, she just thought that Mrs. Guo had forgotten it and would not think of going anywhere else.
What's more, she came here this time not to show her identity as the wife of the mansion, but to inquire about the matter from Mrs. Guo. As long as she can handle this matter well, even if she really suffers a little grievance, this is nothing.
The group arrived at the flower hall, where Mrs. Guo sat on the main seat, while Mrs. Wu, the first-class lady of imperial decree, sat at the first seat of the guest seat, followed by Mrs. Gao, then Mrs. Xu, and finally Wu Qiuyu.
In this order of sitting, it is naturally based on the imperial edicts obtained by each of them. If they are of the same rank, they will generally follow the "qualification", that is, the order of the edicts obtained.
Wu Qiuyu should have been in the third place. She received the fourth-rank imperial edict before Mrs. Xu, but she did not compete for this seat.
She likes to be indifferent to the world and to be at peace with each other. If it were in the past, she would not be qualified to sit here, or would not come to Guo’s house at all, or was arranged to enjoy flowers or be a female lover in the back house, and rarely show up in such a scene.
Mrs. Guo ignored this point again. Mrs. Wu just looked at Wu Qiuyu, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Mrs. Gao seemed to be completely unaware of it and didn't feel anything unusual. Mrs. Xu was a little proud. When no one paid attention, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
She naturally recognized Wu Qiuyu. Although everyone "don't go out of the door and don't go out of the door", it is inevitable that they will meet. When she faced the young lady of the fourth-rank Shuntian Mansion, she couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
It took her many years to make her debut. This woman was already a fourth-rank rank polite person just after she got married, and her potential was far greater than her. No first-rank rank lord wife was unimaginable.
Mrs. Xu pretended to be ignorant, but suddenly asked: "Qiuyu, your husband is..."
As soon as these words were said, they attracted Mrs. Gao's attention. At first, she thought the young woman was Mrs. Wu's daughter, but she followed her over and sat here generously, and she was also the wife of the imperial decree.
Wu Qiuyu felt relieved. Finally, she got the opportunity and officially debuted: "My husband is Lin Ran, the head of Shuntian Mansion!"
Huh?
Mrs. Gao was shocked immediately, but she didn't expect that the woman was Lin Wenkui's wife, the wife of a twenty-one-year-old Shuntian Mansion Cheng.
Mrs. Wu was leisurely using tea, and when she heard this, she looked at Mrs. Xu in surprise.
Mrs. Xu suddenly realized, "I know, isn't it Lin Wenkui? Speaking of which, our two families still have some connections!"
Wu Qiuyu had already officially reported to her home. At this time, when she heard Mrs. Xu say this, she suddenly felt a surprise and listened carefully to the following.
These words also aroused the curiosity of the other three women, and they all looked here, not understanding what fate there was.
Mrs. Guo's brow frowned slightly, and she also looked curious, and her eyes fell on Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu faced everyone's curious eyes, but she smiled proudly and said, "My son-in-law is your husband's senior brother. When they entered school, they worshipped a teacher named Xia together! Tell me, aren't we the same family?"
As soon as this relationship came out, Mrs. Xu immediately took the lead as an elder and firmly pressed Wu Qiuyu.
Wu Qiuyu originally had a little affection for Mrs. Xu, who had the opportunity to make her appear, but after listening to these words, she felt that Mrs. Xu's intentions were sinister.
If this relationship is established, she will always be inferior to Mrs. Xu. Not to mention that she will be said by her husband that she has lost the Lin family’s face. This so-called brotherly relationship is truly worthy of her name. Changlin Village and Jiang Mansion have had deep conflicts.
With all this, Mrs. Xu must have known that the two of them have a bad relationship. But now she is here, she wants to deliberately use this layer of paper-like relationship to suppress her forever.
Wu Qiuyu was sad to find that he had just made his debut but immediately encountered a major crisis.
She knew that she could not be so sensible and could not take on this relationship, but she had no solution in her heart. Only then did she realize that her mother was right, that a stupid person would suffer a great loss, and the circle of the official wife was also full of calculating.
Mrs. Guo saw this scene in her eyes and seemed to have no intention of standing up to smooth things over.
But at this moment, Mrs. Wu seemed quite interested and asked: "Oh, there is actually this. I wonder which son-in-law is your son-in-law?"
Mrs. Xu was not a fabrication, so she was naturally not afraid of verification. She immediately said proudly: "My son-in-law is Jiang Yuebai. She is a second-class Jinshi in Jiwei. She was elected as a Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy. After the exams in the past three years, she will be promoted to Hanlin Revised soon."
But not everyone can win the top scorer, and many cabinet masters start with Shujishi and step by step into the cabinet and become prime minister.
Jiang Yuebai was able to revise from Shujishi to Hanlin, which was undoubtedly a big step, and he had the opportunity to embark on the road to heaven from a poet to a minister.
"This is strange! If there is this relationship, my son-in-law should have your son-in-law in the wedding, or if he invites your son-in-law not to come? But this is not right. On the day of the wedding, the Hanlin Academy had a full table!" Mrs. Wu first questioned, and then pretended to be confused and directly pierced the window paper.
When Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Gao heard these words, they knew that regardless of whether they were brothers or not, their relationship would be unharmonious and even had personal grudges.
When it comes to weddings, Jiang Yuebai is not invited, or Jiang Yuebai is not invited to go there. You can imagine how bad the relationship is.
Now that we want to establish this relationship, we not only need to prove the relationship between the two of them, but also whether they are still called brothers and sisters.
Mrs. Xu was exposed like this and her face was slightly red, but she still forced her to explain: "This is the matter of their younger generation. I am not very clear about this, but they are indeed brothers!"
"I'll find out after asking them two of them, but the relationship between these younger generations is also very chaotic! Your son-in-law is a few years older than my son-in-law, but this year my son-in-law has an apprentice named Wang Honghai who has won Tanhua and is also going to be an editor at the Hanlin Academy. But he has become a colleague with your son-in-law. How do you think this relationship should be calculated?" Mrs. Wu first tried Tai Chi and then said with emotion.
this……
Mrs. Xu's face looked even more awkward. The son-in-law, who originally made her very proud, wanted to use this to steadily suppress Wu Qiuyu. When she took it out, she found that she could not be on the table at all.
She could still bully the scheming Wu Qiuyu, but she could only defeat her in the face of the eloquent Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Guo stood up and said, "Haha... it is your son-in-law who has such skills! He won six yuan in a row and was given the name of Wen Kui by the Emperor. This Ming Dynasty has been the only one that has been established until now!"
Wu Qiuyu looked at her mother with gratitude. If her mother hadn't taken action, she would have been pressed down. When she went back to talk to her husband, she would have said that she had lost the face of the Lin family.
Mrs. Wu looked at Mrs. Guo, but did not pursue the victory, but stopped when she saw the opportunity. At the same time, she looked at her daughter deeply.
In a vaguely, she no longer had an optimistic attitude towards this visit, and Mrs. Guo seemed very unkind today.
