Chapter 271 Salute
When he arrived at the door of the inner courtyard, the old marquis frowned. His wife and sister-in-law did not welcome them. They were the sister-in-law of the sister-in-law, and it was the Wang family who went to visit them. But it's outrageous that Cheng's daughter-in-law doesn't come out. She is a junior, and she doesn't come out to greet her. It's so rude!
The old marquis glanced at Wang Cheng, and Wang Cheng blushed. His wife was a person who couldn't help the wall. She always thought that she was the concubine. She didn't pay attention to anyone in the house except her mother. I have told her several times that my father has deep feelings for her aunt. When my aunt comes, she must be polite. She is fine, which makes me lose face.
Entering the second door of the inner courtyard, the sedan chair stopped. At this moment, there were already a few fifteen or sixteen-year-old handsome girls standing at the door. They came forward to take the sedan chair curtain and helped Wang and Molan down respectively. Molan gently got out of the sedan chair and looked around. This is the inner courtyard, surrounded by carved beams and paintings. In the middle is the hall, and there are strange grasses on the corridor, and sometimes there are three or five sparrows hanging. The sparrows are more beautiful than what she saw in the mountains, and their voices are crisp and pleasant.
Mo Lan saw that she had got off the sedan chair, and saw that there were not many people around the old marquis. She moved to the old marquis and saluted the old marquis.
"Lan Lan has met his uncle, and his uncle is doing well."
"Okay, girl Lan, get up quickly." The old marquis shouted in a hurry. Somehow, he was happy to see this girl. Maybe this girl is too much like his sister's youth.
The second master Wang Zhongguang straightened his eyes when he saw Molan getting off the sedan chair. Isn't this her sister?
"Second brother, do you like it?" The old marquis looked at his straight brother and laughed.
"Like, really like." The second master Wang Zhongguang muttered to himself, looking at Molan and couldn't help nodding.
"If I hadn't seen her. I really missed it with my girl." The old marquis nodded with a smile. He said it sentimentally.
After hearing a few words from the two of them, Molan hurriedly knelt down to salute the second master Wang Zhongguang.
"Rest up quickly, don't be courteous." The second master, the king, shouted repeatedly. Looking at Molan is like looking at her young girl. He felt happy in his heart.
Mo Lan got up and saluted the prince again, as well as Wang Zhi and others. After seeing them one by one, they went to Wang's side.
Under the leadership of the marquis, everyone walked through the hall, and there were six houses in front of them. More than a dozen handsome little girl in blue-toothed clothes are surrounded by a group of ladies standing at the door waiting.
Molan looked at it quickly. A leading lady, less than 40 years old, has a mediocquain complexion. Dai's eyebrows are round, and she looks beautiful, but her dress looks quite tacky, and she is very fresh with emerald green entangled branches. It's just that the big red skirt under her looks very abrupt, and with a red palace gauze she wears on her temples, it's more and more unsightly. Such a dress is neither fresh nor refined, but like a red and green Christmas tree.
Molan sneered. Looking at the dress and standing position, this should be the imperial concubine in the mansion. It seems that this imperial concubine is a dress-up person. It's a pity... The power and heat of this dress are really... Molan shook her head and smiled silently in her heart.
In ancient times, there was often a saying called: red with green, not enough. Red and purple, disgusting. Probably this concubine is a loyal supporter of red and green.
Molan looked back again, and behind the imperial concubine stood several ladies who were younger than her. They are dressed noblely and elegantly one by one, and they look much better than the imperial concubine.
It's close. The leading lady hurriedly saluted and met the marquis, the second master and the prince.
The marquis and others shouted.
The old woman beside Wang and Molan hurriedly whispered to the two, "Grandma, Miss Lan, the leading one is the prince concubine in our house. After her are all the grandmothers in our house.
Wang nodded and came to the front with the help of his mother-in-law. She bowed her knees. Although she was an elder, she did not have a command, so she had to salute in advance when she saw the concubine. The common woman, the king of Mo, paid homage to the concubine. Wang bowed down. Generally speaking, ordinary people will not wait for the elders to worship, and they will be in a hurry. But although the imperial concubine smiled, she waited for Wang to see the full ceremony before she helped her up.
The concubine smiled first and then said, "What did my aunt do? You don't have to be so polite when you get to your home. Isn't it your niece? Not next time. Auntie, please come in. My mother has been waiting for a long time. Originally, my mother was going to greet her in person, but the daughter-in-law was afraid of the wind at the door, so she advised her to wait inside. Don't be surprised."
Although the prince's concubine's words were very decent, she did not see the old marquis. The second master and the prince were black-faced. The prince secretly hated his wife's lack of competition. If he wanted this face, he could not even let his aunt see the truth. She was fine, and now her father didn't like her even more.
Wang didn't dare to say that it was her sin to work hard for the imperial concubine. The old marquis snorted coldly and entered the living room.
Wang and Molan also followed quickly. At the door of the living room stood two old ladies saluting the marquis and others.
Molan raised her eyes and looked at it. In the middle was a lady dressed in plain makeup with a mountain blue background and a pearl on her head. This lady is about 50 years old. She is quite rich, with a kind smile in her eyes, and her lips show a breeze. She looks very comfortable. I think it should be the marquis's wife.
The woman next to her is a 40- or 50-year-old woman with dark hair and a little white hair in the middle, which means that she is indeed old. However, her face was ruddy, but her eyebrows looked a little mean, and it was really uncomfortable to look at people.
Her dress is very luxurious, wearing a jade flowing gold hairpin on her head, and the emerald color on the head of the hairpin is beautiful. Dongzhu in her ear added a little good look to her, and she was several years younger. Wearing a silver-gray embroidered hu-shirts and a pomegranate-red skirt, he looks like a person with an identity.
When they saw the gift, the old marquis met Wang and said, "Lanzhi, come and see your eldest sister-in-law." The old woman hurriedly helped Wang to get closer. Wang bent down and knelt down and said, "My sister-in-law is here, please be worshipped by my sister." Without waiting for her to kneel down, Mrs. Hou hurriedly picked her up, took Wang's hand, and said with a smile on her face, "Come on, get up quickly. It's all your family. You don't need so many gifts. Let me see, is it really a little sister? Is it all the way? You have suffered all these years.
As she spoke, Mrs. Hou was moved, and the smile on her face turned into sadness, and she took out her handkerchief to wipe her tiredness.
Wang Shi also shed tears when she said this. Their aunt and sister-in-law have been together for several years, and their relationship is still good. Suddenly, she felt uncomfortable at first sight.
Watch the two of them shed tears. A woman next to her said, "I don't know anything about my aunt. I heard that my aunt was coming, and my wife was so happy that she didn't rest for a few nights. I look forward to it every day. Just waiting for my aunt to come.
Wang was very moved when she heard this. She wiped her tears and said, "Let the eldest sister-in-law worry. It's all my sister's fault."
"That's it. What's wrong with your sister's polite words? Just go back home, just go back home. I won't leave when I come back this time." Mrs. Hou pulled Wang's hand and said.
The lady next to her looked at the two of them like this. But he secretly curled his lips.
"Let's go to the first house. I'm talking about it when I enter the house." The old marquis saw the emotion of the two people. He couldn't bear to interrupt, but this is the door, and it's not a matter to stand here.
"Quick, let's come into the room and talk. Look at my happiness, I'm confused. Forget that this is the door. Don't be surprised, sister." Mrs. Hou blamed herself for pulling Wang in a hurry. Wang held Mrs. Hou with his backhand, and everyone entered the room together.
The guest owner of the house is seated.
Wang did not sit down, but stood in the middle. She must pay her respects. Only when you have saluted here can it be regarded as a formal rule.
Seeing that Wang was going to kneel down, the lady with a look hurriedly put a futon under Wang's body. Wang knelt down and kowtowed three. The eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. At present, her parents are gone. The old marquis is her biggest elder. Now she is officially married. She must kneel down and kowtow.
Wang knelt down this time, and the old marquis did not stop him. When Wang kowtowed, the old marquis and the marquis hurriedly shouted.
The old marquis and Zhang gave Wang a meeting gift respectively. No matter how old Wang is, it is always their sister. This formal gift must be given.
The old marquis gave a purple jade Ruyi, and the old lady gave a white jade Ruyi. The two good wishes represent their blessings, and I wish Wang all the best.
Both of them are excellent things, from which it can be seen that the two of them value the Wang family.
Wang thanked with tears, got up with the help of his mother-in-law, and knelt down in front of the second master Wang Zhongguang and his wife.
The second master Wang Zhongguang shouted in a hurry, and the second lady Chen also shouted faintly. The second master gave Wang a pair of white jade bracelets, showing that he valued his sister. The second wife, Mrs. Chen, only gave a golden banker.
Everyone looked at Jinchage and his eyes flashed. The second master Wang Zhongguang glanced at his wife, and anger flashed in his eyes. A few days ago, he gave the second lady a white jade pendant, on which was carved with Duolan huā. The jade is very good, and the workmanship is also excellent. It just matches with my white jade bracelet. It is also a decent look on both sides.
This white jade pendant is rare. He was afraid that his wife would not be willing to give it to him, so he personally chose it to his wife and told her to give it to her. I didn't know that she still didn't take it out today, so she was fooled by a golden hairpin. Isn't this to sweep the face of yourself and your sister? The second master's face flashed with disterie.
And Wang Shi was not unhappy. No matter what it was, it was her intention. She thanked and took it over.
I have met two brothers and sisters-in-law. Wang has settled down. Now it is a family gift. She has worshipped the son and his wife, and there is no need to worship at this moment. In the family ceremony, except for the two brothers and sisters-in-law, she is the elder. Next, the younger generation salutes her. She just needs to prepare a gift for the meeting.
PS: Thank you for the peace charm sent by lizzie110. Xue said a few digression here. There may be many relatives who like purebred Tianwen who don't like to enter Houfu. In fact, Xue also thought about it over and over again. Xue's writing is not good, and there is a lack of a lot of description of Hou's mansion. I hope you can understand it. After all, Wang's identity was set from Kaiwen. She found her family, and she had to go to Beijing to worship her parents. Besides, there are also things to deal with in the capital. After dealing with it, the heroine and her family can live a good life. But you can rest assured that the heroine will not stay in the capital for long. After all, she will return to the mountains. Hee hee, is this a spoiler? I also hope that you will continue to support Xue. Thank you, everyone.
