"Wanqing, I heard that you invited a few young ladies to our Li Mansion" "Yes, Wanqing was just about to tell her grandmother about this, when Wanqing was in Pingyang Mansion, she was very close to these young ladies, and this time her granddaughter returned to the house, she wanted to invite Wang Lianyue, the daughter of Wang Shangshu's family, Zhou Yutong, the daughter of the military department's waiter, and Li Kemei from the General's Mansion to come over tomorrow, and they all replied that they would come on time. ”"Okay, good, the daughters of these families are the same age as you, and it's always good to be close."
The old lady's face was full of happy smiles, she didn't expect Wanqing to stay in Pingyang Mansion for a few years, and actually befriended these noble young ladies, which is a good thing for Li Mansion."
Tomorrow, let your sisters accompany you to entertain these distinguished guests, and don't neglect others."
After thinking about it, the old lady looked at the eldest lady and said, "You should also pay some attention to this matter, let the kitchen make some novel fruit plate pastries, and especially spend more attention on lunch, and make more dishes that suit the tastes of these distinguished guests." ”The old lady hadn't spoken to her so kindly for a long time, and the eldest lady couldn't help but slander in her heart, this old thing has a lot of difficulties for herself on weekdays, and she still has to rely on herself when she encounters that important matter.Although there was dissatisfaction in his heart, his face was full of respectful smiles."
Yes, old lady, daughter-in-law understands, I have already ordered this matter, you can rest assured."
Li Wanqing didn't expect it to be so smooth, originally she was thinking about how to let Li Wanru and Li Wanling participate in this banquet, but she didn't expect the old lady to solve this problem for her.However, now there is another person who is indispensable, raised his eyes and glanced at the third aunt who was standing beside the fourth aunt with her head down, Li Wanqing showed a somewhat shy smile, and said with some embarrassment in her tone: "Grandmother, granddaughter still has a reluctant invitation, Wang Lianyue, the daughter of Wang Shangshu's family, likes to eat rose cake the most on weekdays, I heard that the third aunt in our house makes one of the best pastries, I don't know if I can bother the third aunt to make some" The old lady heard Li Wanqing speak, and thought there was something important, It turned out to be for such a trivial matter, but she didn't answer immediately, but turned her head to look at the third aunt and asked: "Third aunt, these are all distinguished guests who are difficult to invite on weekdays, you see" This is not a matter in the old lady's heart, the reason why she asked about the meaning of the third aunt is actually on Li Wanru's face, after all, she is her biological mother, but there is inevitably a certain taste in her tone.When Li Wanru heard Li Wanqing's proposal to let the third aunt make pastries, her heart was full of unhappiness, this Li Wanqing was really not a good thing.The third aunt sometimes makes some pastries for the courtyards to taste, but that is a heart, but Li Wanqing now means that the third aunt is compared with the maid.Even if these young ladies are distinguished guests, what's wrong, there are so many maids and cooks in the house, it's not enough, and it is really impossible to use the third aunt as a cook, but now looking at the meaning of the old lady, she actually takes this matter for granted.She couldn't help but feel a little cold, yes, her biological mother was a concubine of the Li Mansion, to put it bluntly, she could only be regarded as half a master, presumably doing such a thing in them did not insult the third aunt.No matter what, she can't let Li Wanqing's soft knife really cut the third aunt, you must know that the third aunt did this, what will the people in this mansion think of the third aunt, the situation of the third aunt in the Li Mansion is not optimistic, presumably in this way, the subordinates of the Li Mansion don't even bother to pretend to be respectful on the surface.Thinking of this, she was just about to open her mouth to refuse this matter for the third aunt, but before she could say it, she heard the third aunt's warm and watery voice: "The pastries made by the concubine are difficult to get into the elegant hall, since the eldest lady can be trusted, the aunt will naturally not refuse, and will do her best not to disappoint the distinguished guests." ”Li Wanru lowered her head, she was afraid that the hatred in her eyes would not be controllable, and her hands hidden in her sleeves could only hold the silk handkerchief tightly at this time, but she didn't expect this Li Wanqing to be really a femme fatale, this kind of smiling tiger is much more difficult to deal with than Li Wanyun, who only knows how to be fierce and ruthless.She made a note of it, and since the enemy had already made a move, she would not sit idly by.The eldest lady looked at the third aunt with disdain, but her mouth was full of politeness: "Then the third aunt should use more care, you must know that these distinguished guests are not invited by anyone, and if something goes wrong, it is difficult to explain." ”Although she heard that the eldest lady had something to say, she could only respond with her mouth.How could the third aunt not understand that after she agreed to this, the situation in the Li Mansion would probably be even more difficult, but since the old lady had already spoken, she could not refuse no matter what.Now that the old lady values Wanru so much, she doesn't want to affect Wanru because of this matter, which makes the old lady unhappy.Sure enough, when the old lady heard the third aunt's answer, she nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Li Wanqing and said: "After a few young ladies come over tomorrow, you can be entertained, and don't just stay in the yard, the plum blossoms in the plum garden in the backyard are blooming just right now, and you sisters will take a few young ladies to go shopping." ”"It's still grandmother's thoughtfulness, Wanqing was still thinking about how to accompany a few young ladies to pass the time, but she didn't expect that grandmother even helped her granddaughter think about this."
Li Wanqing's tone was full of coquettishness and admiration, her purpose today had been achieved, and now her heart was full of comfort.The old lady looked at her granddaughter in front of her, who was extraordinary in appearance or bearing, and her heart was full of comfort, thinking that in the Pingyang Palace in the past few years, Qing Yatou was very valued, so it seems that Qing Yatou's future should be well planned.The old lady glanced at the granddaughters in the house again, and now they are all slim, no matter how they look and learn, they are not lost to the daughters of those big families in Pingcheng, and they are more and more satisfied.For this reason, the eyes of the eldest lady are also much kinder, although this eldest lady is a little less angry on weekdays, but she is not too harsh on several concubines.The eldest lady felt that the old lady's gaze had changed when she looked at her, and she wondered in her heart, could it be that this old immortal was playing with some ideas, if she really thought that she was easy to handle, this time she would not be able to tolerate a lot.After Li Wanru calmed down, she naturally raised her head, looking at the looks of everyone in the room from the corner of her eyes, Li Wanling gave her a touch of comfort on her head, she nodded lightly, indicating that she was fine.In fact, she knew in her heart that the third aunt should do this, most likely because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed.At this time, she felt a very unkind gaze, and she didn't have to think that such a straightforward hateful gaze could only come from her fourth sister.Sure enough, as soon as she turned her head, she saw Li Wanyun's look of disdain, Li Wanru was already accustomed to this, and just about to turn her head, she found that the fourth sister's eyes were a little different from the past, and there was a trace of pity mixed in that disdain, although it was fleeting, but she caught it.Yes, it is pity, which makes Li Wanru have a bad premonition.Li Wanru would not be surprised to see any emotion in Li Wanyun's eyes, but how could it be that Li Wanru knew this fourth sister too well, and always tried every means to trouble herself on weekdays, if she wanted to say that this fourth sister had changed her personality, she didn't believe it, it could only show that she was brewing some conspiracy, and she decided that she would not be able to escape, so she would look at herself with that kind of eyes.What is the matter She lowered her head and thought about it carefully, and a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind, could it be related to this banquet aa2705221:
