Chapter 70 The First Banquet (3)
Princess Changping was stunned, "Jun'er, how could you think of this?"
Wei Junmo said: "My son doesn't care about the position of the prince, and his mother is not happy in this mansion, and I don't want to be flawless in the future..."
Princess Changping was stunned for a long time, and finally shook her head and said, "Your father won't agree."
Wei Junmo said nothing, but his purple eyes revealed a firm light. Since his father did not regard him as his son, he did not have to occupy the position of Prince of Jingjiang.
Princess Changping sneered suddenly and said with some sarcastic sarcasm: "Jun'er, you sit peacefully at the position of Prince Jingjiang Prince. You are the son of your mother. How can your mother let you suffer from those people's grievances in the future? Do you think that if Wei Hongfei was not Princess Changping's son-in-law at the beginning, he could be named Prince?" Her Jun'er was bullied by those people since she was a child, how could she let him be trampled by those people in the future because of her status? No matter who Wei Hongfei wants to give to the position of Prince Jingjiang Prince, in the end, it can only be Jun'er's, unless... no one wants it!
The next day, when the Duke of Chu was hosting a banquet, although it was late spring, the flowers in Jichang Garden were still blooming in a good manner. Nangong Mo held this banquet on the grounds of appreciating flowers. Those who received the posts were the daughters or wives of officials above the fifth rank in Jinling City. Because Nangong Mo was still young, most of the invited posts were ladies who were about to marry or young wives. The older generation of elders naturally had to wait until they had the opportunity to visit them in person or meet them in other places.
Early in the morning, the entire Duke of Chu's Mansion became lively. The quiet and peaceful Jichang Garden was in an endless stream. Madam Lan's method of training her servants was very good, but in just a few days, not only the girls in Jichang Garden, but even the girls who called for help outside were trained properly. She was smart and agile when she saw her actions, but she did not seem impetuous at all. The girls in the whole garden were busy but did not feel noisy or noisy at all.
As expected, the eldest wife of the Xie family brought Mrs. Xie and Xie Peihuan to the Duke of Chu's Mansion early in the morning. Even Nangong Huai, who was Duke of Chu, was very cautious and personally welcomed Mrs. Xie in the hall.
"Mo'er is young and ignorant. Today's matter is still a problem, Mrs. Xie Hou." Nangong Huai said with a smile.
Mrs. Xie sat on the first seat of the guest seat. Although she had a smile between her eyebrows, she had a sense of dignity. She nodded slightly and said, "The Xie family and the Meng family are family friends. The old lady also gave instructions before going out. Duke Chu should rest assured."
Zheng sat next to Nangong Huai and smiled and said, "We are naturally very relieved with Mrs. Xie's help."
Mrs. Xie lowered her head to drink tea, as if she had not heard Zheng's words. Such behavior was very rude. Originally, Zheng was the wife of the Duke of the Kingdom and Mrs. Xie was the wife of the Marquis and she was still lowered to her, she would never be so rude. But unfortunately, the Duke of the Kingdom was too watery and there was no title from His Majesty at all. If she really moved to the table, she was even worse than a fifth-rank imperial edict. When Mrs. Xie didn't exist, she could only bear it. Zheng's smile suddenly became a little stiff, and Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "Mother is right, let alone Mo'er is very smart, so she really needs to worry about anything. We are just helping the master." Nangong Mo Yanran smiled slightly, "Sister Su praised me."
Mrs. Xie put down the teacup and then looked at everyone present. Finally, she looked at Lin, who was sitting on the side, frowned and asked, "Is this the eldest young lady?"
Lin was stunned and stood up in a panic, "I've seen Mrs. Xie."
Because Zheng has a bad relationship with the ladies of the imperial decrees in various families in the capital, Nangong Xu has just entered the officialdom now, and most of them have forgotten to post a post to the Nangong family if there are any banquets. Lin has not attended several banquets in two or three years since he entered the capital. Not many people know her in the capital, and Mrs. Xie is even less aware of her. Looking at Lin's restrained appearance, Mrs. Xie frowned, and her eyes looked at Nangong Huai a little weird.
How important is the wife of a eldest son of a family? It is likely that she will be a future clan wife. Even if such a person would rather have a lower status, he must not be without means and personality. However, the young lady of the Nangong family has no family background, means and personality. Even if the eldest son of the Nangong family really inherits the title of Duke of Chu in the future, can the eldest wife support the Nangong family? Or... Mrs. Xie turned her eyes to Zheng, who was sitting aside, with more disgust in her eyes.
Of course, Nangong Huai also knew that this daughter-in-law was a little soft-hearted, but he was born in a grassroots family, where would there be so many considerations and plans for the big family? Besides, Zheng has always been in charge of the Nangong family, so he didn't think there was any problem with Lin's personality. Seeing Mrs. Xie like this, he just smiled and said, "She is from a small family, please don't blame her."
Mrs. Xie shook her head secretly in her heart. The eldest young lady of the Xie family was also not from a famous family. In order to avoid His Majesty's fear of the Xie family, Mrs. Xie was only from an ordinary scholarly family, but her personality and skills were not bad at all. She studied with her mother-in-law for two years. Now, Mrs. Xie is now walking out and who dares to look down on her?
Mrs. Xie sighed and said, "Forget it, it's getting late, we should go and prepare."
Before Nangong Huai could speak, Zheng hurriedly said, "Madam is right, Shu'er, come with your elder sister and sister-in-law to help." Nangong Shu frowned with some dissatisfaction, but she didn't say anything after all. Mrs. Xie raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything else. Standing up and pulling Nangong Mo away.
The group walked in Jichang Garden, and Mrs. Xie sighed slowly and said, "The last time I came here was ten years ago. The scenery in Jichang Garden has not changed."
Nangong Mo walked beside Mrs. Xie and smiled and said, "I'm here to thank Aunt Xie today."
Mrs. Xie patted the back of Nangong Mo's hand and said softly: "Why are you polite to me, a child? I couldn't talk to you well last time in Danyang. A few days ago, you went to Xie's mansion, and I happened to go out with the master again. I just saw it carefully today. It was much more neat than the third girl in our family."
"Mother!" Xie Peihuan refused to do it, "Mother, you are like your grandmother. When you see Mo'er, you will dislike your daughter."
"You girl, don't let others say anything if you are not good?" Mrs. Xie smiled and said. Mrs. Xie was very grateful for Nangong Mo's intentional invitation to Xie Peihuan to attend the banquet. Her marriage to the 19th prince has become a settlement. The king wants his ministers to die and have to die. They have no choice but to do anything. But they never hope that their daughter will live alone from now on. Although her daughter did not lock herself up and see others, she never took the initiative to attend any lively banquet. It is rare for Nangong to be able to touch her.
