Chen Xiangxue is having a banquet. When she hears that the servant girl is coming, she says that Princess yaocen is coming. Her face changes slightly. She thought Jiao Jiao would not come even if she accepted the invitation. But soon, she recovered as before. She couldn't find out if she didn't pay special attention.

Jiaojiao is a distinguished guest. Chen Xiangxue went out to meet her personally. Today, Jiaojiao is wearing a long red brocade dress, a high bun and a complete set of ruby jewelry.

Seeing Jiaojiao coming slowly, Chen Xiangxue stopped, then came forward with a smile.

Today, Chen Xiangxue is wearing a bright red gold embroidered brocade skirt and a peony bun with four bright jewelry hairpins inserted in the red phoenix mouth. This dress, originally very gorgeous. But now, it is forced down by Jiaojiao.

When she came to Jiaojiao, Chen Xiangxue said with a smile: "the princess can come here. It really makes our Xu family prosperous."

Jiaojiao is also a good person in interpersonal communication. She said with a smile, "sister Xiangxue, I haven't seen you for so many years, but I still know how to talk."

I don't know. Looking at the two people talking and laughing side by side, I thought how close their relationship was!

Chen Xiangxue and Jiaojiao said: "princess, my mother-in-law said that she wanted to see you, so she gave you a post."

It's Mrs. Xu who put forward the post for Jiaojiao. Chen Xiangxue doesn't want to make trouble, but old lady Xu insists. For this reason, he even talked to Xu Wenchang.

Xu Wenchang felt that it was just a small matter. He didn't want to make the old lady unhappy with the birthday party, so he agreed. When the family agreed, what else can Chen Xiangxue do? She can only post.

Jiaojiao said with a smile: "everyone in the capital says that the old man is good at teaching children. I've long wanted to see the old man. I'm not sure I can touch her light."

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a good way to teach a son. Who else could surpass the Empress Dowager. Chen Xiangxue knows what Jiaojiao said, it's all polite words.

Jiaojiao is the second grade Princess granted by the emperor, the rank of old lady Xu and the guests present, no one is higher than her. So when Jiaojiao entered the main hall, all the people except Mrs. Xu stood up.

When Jiaojiao enters the room, she looks at the person sitting at the top. The old lady was wearing a royal blue five blessing birthday gown and a dark red six piece skirt. His hair was well combed and his body was covered with pearls. He was very rich and looked kind.

With the help of the servant girl, Mrs. Xu stood up.

Jiaojiao came forward and gave a gift to old lady Xu: "Yao CEN is here to wish old lady happiness and longevity." The birthday gift is given to the recipient when you enter the door.

Old lady Xu was stunned and asked incredulously, "are you princess yaocen?"

Face coagulation goose fat, lips if the point cherry, eyebrows such as mountains, God if autumn. This beautiful young woman turned out to be princess yaocen who refused her son.

When she arrived in the capital that year, old Mrs. Xu was angry when she heard that someone had refused his son's offer. In her heart, her son was worthy of the princess, but she was rejected by a princess. In fact, at that time, Mrs. Xu wanted to see Jiaojiao. Look at what this woman who dares to refuse her son looks like. Unfortunately, it has not been able to do so.

Jiao Jiao nodded slightly: "well, I'm Yao Cen."

Old lady Xu couldn't help asking, "does it seem that the princess is in her twenties this year?"

Jiaojiao's eyebrows trembled. The old lady was really direct: "yes, it was 32 days ago."

"It's so young. It doesn't look much bigger than my family." Peng Peng is the eldest daughter of Chen Xiangxue.

This name was taken by Xu Wenchang from the book "the wind"? Zaichi: "I walk in the wild, and I walk in the wheat.". Chen Xiangxue doesn't like this name. But Xu Wenchang has the final say in his family, and he does not love it.

Jiaojiao smiles and doesn't answer.

But Mrs. Xu continued: "everything else is good, but it's too thin. It's better to eat more. It's better to be fat. "

Chen Xiangxue interrupted: "princess, please sit down." The position given to Jiao Jiao is the first position on the left.

Jiaojiao doesn't like to be judged by others, but now she is a guest, and she won't show her face. See Chen Xiangxue diverge topic, she also smile to walk to sit down.

But old lady Xu looked at Jiaojiao and asked, "what material are your clothes made of? They are so bright." She had never seen bright and beautiful clothes in her life.

Jiaojiao looked indifferent and said, "Yunjin."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she was surprised: "Yunjin? Is it the rare material of Jin and Jin

Many people have seen Yunjin, but few of them have worn the clothes made of Yunjin. However, Chen has a deep family background. The clothes Chen Xiangxue wore when she was hairpin were made of Yun brocade. But later I married Xu Wenchang and never wore this dress again.

Jiao Jiao smiles and says, "yes!"

"No wonder your dress is so beautiful!" Just a suit of clothes costs hundreds of thousands of years of silver, which is too luxurious. Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu was glad that Xu Wenchang had not married Jiaojiao. If not, how can we afford it.

The look on Mrs. Xu's face was so obvious that people present could not see it.

Jiaojiao picked up the tea, took a sip and put it down. This tea is not so bad.

In fact, it's not that other people's tea is bad, it's Jiaojiao's mouth is too tricky. Instead of deciding on a good tea, she would rather drink boiled water.

Old lady Xu saw Jiaojiao's hands and her eyes were straight: "your hands are really white."

Delicate hands are delicate, white and smooth. Fingernails are not smeared with all kinds of paint like the ladies in Kyoto today. It's a very natural pink. Just look at these hands, you can see that her master has never done anything.

"I'm flattered, old lady."

Chen Xiangxue didn't want Mrs. Xu to go on talking, but she laughed and turned off the topic: "I heard that the princess likes to raise flowers. The Cymbidium in our garden just opened. I don't know if the princess is interested in going to have a look?"

"Of course. Just to see if it's my Cymbidium or your Cymbidium. If you are good, I can learn from you. " Chen Xiangxue is also a wise man, and Jiaojiao doesn't want to be hostile to her.

Chen Xiangxue is going to take Jiaojiao to the garden to enjoy the flowers.

Mrs. Xu was very dissatisfied and didn't know what daughter-in-law meant. She just said a few words to Princess yaocen, and then she was in a hurry to pull people away. It was not obvious that she had to fight against herself: "it's so sunny outside, so much sunshine. If you want to see the flowers, just ask the servants to move them in. "

Mrs. Xu can't stand Chen Xiangxue's plants. The land in this garden can grow vegetables, so you don't have to pay for it. But the daughter-in-law didn't listen to her. Those flowers and plants that can't be eaten or worn have to be handled by special personnel. Every time I think of this, Mrs. Xu thinks that Chen Xiangxue will not be able to make a living. She is a black sheep. For this matter, old lady Xu talked to Xu Wenchang for a long time. It's a pity that Xu Wenchang doesn't support her idea. She also says that it's an elegant thing, and old lady Xu just gives up.

Chen Xiangxue has a headache for old lady Xu's lack of eyes, but in front of so many guests, she will not disobey old lady's meaning: "princess, do you see?"

Jiaojiao sat back in her chair and said with a smile, "the old lady loves me so much, so move the flowers in and let us watch them together."

Two pots of Cymbidium soon moved to the living room. Jiaojiao thought that the flower was very similar, but she praised it as well as everyone else.

At this time, an older woman praised the old lady for her good fortune and gave birth to two good sons who were able and filial.

In Xu Wenchang's sixth year, Xu Wendong also won the Jinshi examination. Although can't compare with Xu Wenchang, but can test in prove very fierce.

Mrs. Xu's greatest pride in her life was that she had two capable sons, Xu Wenchang and Xu Wendong, so he was not tired of hearing this many times.

But it was the woman's words that reminded old lady Xu. She looked at Jiaojiao and said, "how many children does the princess have?" In fact, she knew it.

"Two children, a son and a daughter." It's not that Jiaojiao doesn't want to have a baby, but that she is not pregnant after giving birth to her son. There are five men in Du Zhaozhang's generation, and his eldest brother has six sons. So they don't lack sons. Jiaojiao only gave birth to a son and a daughter, but she has not been reborn.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she said, "there are too few sons, at least two." In addition to Chen Xiangxue's two sons and one daughter, Xu Wenchang had three sons and two daughters. The number of children born of concubines will certainly increase.

At this time, a woman with weakened face praised: "the old lady is blessed with one daughter and two sons. There's no one in the capital that can compare with you. "

These people want to compliment old lady Xu. It doesn't matter if she is charming. But if you want to step on her, there is no door.

Jiaojiao said with a light smile: "my wife's family likes her husband, and there is no concubine in the house. When you are old, you have a wife to accompany you, and your children and grandchildren are filial and considerate. This is the real blessing. "

It's true that Mrs. Xu's son is filial, but when he was young, he was widowed. According to Jiao Jiao, not only was he not lucky, but his life was miserable.

Hearing this, the thin faced woman said in a sharp voice, "I don't agree with you, princess. It's my duty to be a wife and a daughter-in-law to open branches and leaves for her husband's family."

The smile on Jiao Jiao's face went away. Looking at the woman, she said faintly, "this is not what I said, but what my grandmother said."

The woman jammed in one go. Who doesn't know that today's emperor is filial and can't tolerate outsiders to say that the Empress Dowager is not the least bit? If what she said today is spread to the emperor's ears, her husband will certainly be involved.

Old lady Xu was in a very good mood, but Jiao Jiao's words made her feel very bad. But this is what the Empress Dowager said, and she can't refute it. No matter how ignorant old lady Xu was, she did not dare to say that what the Empress Dowager said was wrong.

Jiaojiao doesn't seem to know how much trouble her words have caused. At the moment, Mrs. Xu and Chen Xiangxue said that she was a little dizzy and needed to go home.

Old lady Xu is eager to leave now, so that she can say something to stop her heart: "since the princess is not comfortable, go back quickly."

But Chen Xiangxue stepped forward and asked with concern, "what's wrong with the princess? Do you want to go to the wing room to have a rest first? I'll send for the doctor to show you first and make sure there's nothing wrong before you go back. "

Although she knew that Jiaojiao's saying that she was uncomfortable was just an excuse, she had to show her due concern and worry as a master. It's not like Mrs. Xu, who wants people to leave quickly. Let the other guests see what they think.

Jiaojiao has no aversion to Chen Xiangxue. On the contrary, she thinks it's not easy: "it's OK, just have a rest."

Chen Xiangxue sent Jiaojiao out of the Xu family. When she arrived at the gate, she said with an apologetic face: "my mother-in-law is very kind, but she has some temperament. She thinks of what to say and asks the princess not to take her words to heart." At the beginning, Chen Xiangxue was often angry with Mrs. Xu. After a long time, I'll take it easy.

"I don't care about old people." I believe that with today's event, it is estimated that the Xu family will never invite her again.

Jiao Jiao's carriage soon disappeared in Chen Xiangxue's sight. But Chen Xiangxue is still looking at the distance. At that time, she also wondered why Xu Wenchang and princess Shuchang refused to marry Jiaojiao. But now, she understands.

The servant girl asked: "madam, what's the matter?"

"I think Princess yaocen is very lucky." After Du Zhaozhang married Princess yaocen, he spoiled her as a treasure. There were no other women around him these years, just guarding Princess yaocen. And just look at the appearance of Princess yaocen, you know how happy she is.

The servant girl said: "madam, you are also very lucky. How many aunts and grandmothers in the family don't envy you, madam Chen Xiangxue's sisters, only she married the best. And Xu Wenchang also has great respect for her. Although there are two concubines, they are as honest as quail.

Her husband has a great future and trusts her. He never interferes in the affairs of his inner house. Although her mother-in-law sometimes speaks badly, she is not a vicious person, and she will not deliberately rub people and coax them into holding them. Compared with her sisters in the family, she really has a good life.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiangxue said: "people should be content." So it is, but there is still some meaning in my heart. Which woman doesn't want to be a couple.

In the evening, Mrs. Xu and Xu Wenchang said, "fortunately you didn't marry Princess yaocen that day, otherwise I would live 20 years less." Who doesn't know that she was widowed when she was young, but she said in front of her that it's a blessing to have a wife to accompany her when she is old, which doesn't hit her face.

At this time, Mrs. Xu completely forgot that it was not because her son didn't marry, it was because others didn't take a fancy to him.

Over the years, Xu Wenchang has been happy and angry for a long time. He said with a smile, "mother, how many years of the old yellow calendar have you mentioned this. Mother, I'm leaving tomorrow. When it gets cold, I'll send someone to pick you up. " It was also because he knew that today was Mrs. Xu's 60th birthday, so the emperor specially granted permission to wait until Mrs. Xu's birthday.

Mrs. Xu's attention soon shifted.

However, after this day, Mrs. Xu was much more kind to Chen Xiangxue. This is a surprise for Chen Xiangxue.

At the same time, Jiao Jiao also said to Du Zhaozhang, "that old lady is really like my grandmother said that day. She is either a villain, or she speaks too harshly." Everything is shown on the face, there is a word is not hidden in the heart directly said, such a person is actually easy to deal with. I'm afraid of the kind of people who are affable on the face but painful in the back. Therefore, Jiaojiao has no aversion to Mrs. Xu. Of course, she doesn't like it either.

Du Zhaozhang said: "if she talks badly, you can choke back. You can't rely on your age and let her deal with people. " His future is not inferior to that of Xu Wenchang. And the two are not in the same camp, Jiaojiao is not afraid to offend.

Jiao Jiao kisses Du Zhaozhang and says happily, "husband, you are so nice." Fortunately, she was very principled, otherwise she would have been spoiled by Du Zhaozhang.

Du Zhaozhang was so loved that soon, a blushing voice came out of the room.

PS: I didn't bother to take an umbrella when I saw a light rain yesterday. As a result, I had a headache in the middle of the night. Today also slept a day, up to now the head still faintly makes the ache. So it's only one watch today. Sorry.
