Chapter 225 Invitation for outing
But because of the public notice of the government office, everyone in the city knew that the credit for the Captain's Mansion was earned by Wei Qingruo, the eldest daughter of the Wei family.
Because of this, the name of the eldest daughter of the Wei family became famous in the aristocratic circle of Taizhou Prefecture.
There is no problem in coordinating the epidemic prevention and control of the entire Taizhou Prefecture, so wouldn't it be a problem for the housekeeper? When a big family chooses a daughter-in-law, it depends not only on their personal conduct but also on the ability of the housekeeper.
What's more, the eldest daughter of the Wei family had a slap in the face of Princess Jingmin. Wouldn't it be more face-saving to marry home?
It just so happens that the eldest daughter is now fourteen, so she can start talking about kissing.
So just after this year, the Yun family received invitations from many wives.
Mr. Yun was delighted. They had just arrived in Fucheng not long ago, and they were worried about how to gain a foothold, but now it seems that there is no need to worry about it.
Mr. Yun knew that it was time for her to worry about the marriage of her two daughters.
Although according to the husband's wishes, the daughter can marry later, and it is still too late to do the marriage when the seventeenth or eighteenth year is over, but the matter of looking at each other can be taken care of now.
It's okay to pay homage to marriage later, but if you haven't settled on a suitable family until the 17th or 18th, then the parents should really worry, and people outside will also gossip, and those who don't know think they are the girl from the Wei family Is there something unspeakable to hide?
So Yun called Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan to the front, and asked the two to prepare well and go out with him tomorrow.
"Is it an outing hosted by Madam Tongzhi?" Wei Qingwan asked.
She was studying in Tongzhifu, so she had heard some news about this matter.
"That's right, it's an outing, and it's also out of compassion for the farmers. In the past two years, the farming has not been harvested, the court is concerned, and the magistrate is worried. Mrs. Xu means to take all the ladies and ladies to go outing together, see the people's farming, and experience the farmers. It's not easy." Yun explained.
The imperial court emphasizes agriculture, so the people below must follow this trend and do some actions that respect and respect agriculture.
Wei Qingwan nodded: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter will make good preparations."
Wei Ruo didn't make a sound.
Yun Shi looked at Wei Ruo and said, "You should remember to wear the spring clothes I made for you last year for the Chinese New Year. Don't wear old clothes anymore."
In the past few days, Wei Ruo often went out wearing plain linen clothes. Fortunately, he mostly traveled in a carriage, and went to Tianqin Garden again, so Yun didn't say anything.
But tomorrow I will be with the wives and ladies of various families. If I wear it like this again, I will lose the face of the Captain's Mansion.
"knew."
Wei Ruo likes to wear plain linen clothes these days because she will go down to the fields when she finds time these days.
She reserved a piece of the field on Zhuangzi and planted it herself, in order to accumulate her space experience points faster.
Then Yunshi told Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan a few words, from clothing accessories to words and deeds, I hope they can do as well as possible.
After a while, Yun felt that he had explained everything clearly before letting Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan go back.
###
Early the next morning, Wei Ruo changed into new clothes made at the end of last year, a light green skirt.
Because it was still cold in the morning and evening these days, Xiumei took a thinner cloak and put it on for Wei Ruo.
The cloak worn in winter is made of fox fur, but now it is made of satin material with a thin layer of cotton sewn on it, which is just right for this time.
When they came to the door, Yunshi and Wei Qingwan had also arrived, and the three of them got into the carriage together and headed for Tongzhifu.
Today everyone's destination is not Tongzhifu, but Tongzhifu is the place where everyone gathers.
Waited for a while at the gate of Tongzhifu, and after the rest of the carriages had arrived, they went out of the city together.
When they arrived at the place, everyone got out of the car and walked on foot.
Madam Tongzhi chose Beishan Village in the south of the city. The village is surrounded by farmland. It is the busy farming season, and a large number of farmers, women and children, are busy in the fields.
The scenery along the way is beautiful and green.
After Wei Ruo got off the carriage, Mrs. Tongzhi came up to greet her: "This is Miss Wei, right? I have heard of the name of Miss Wei more than once before, but I have never had the chance to meet her." See you today, you should know that being famous is not as good as meeting, the real person is more beautiful than what they say!"
Madam Tongzhi looked at Wei Ruo with a smile on her face.
Wei Ruo responded with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Tongzhi said to Wei Ruo enthusiastically: "Speaking of which, I really want to thank Miss Wei family. Thanks to your loquat cream, my father-in-law's old illness has been cured, and now it is more than half healed." Now, the whole person is in good spirits!"
Mrs. Xu who bought loquat cream from Wei Ruo before was the mother-in-law of Mrs. Tongzhi, and it was her father-in-law who was sick and took the medicine. As a daughter-in-law, I must thank Wei Ruo for taking the opportunity.
"Mrs. Xu, you are welcome." Wei Ruo replied, modest and polite, neither seeming enthusiastic nor alienated.
Mrs. Xu made a start, and several other ladies also came up and greeted Wei Ruo.
These ladies are not low-status, but they are all willing to condescend to chat with Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo was a little uncomfortable with the enthusiasm of the crowd, she just planned to make soy sauce, just like before, she wanted to be a little transparent at the party and didn't want to have any sense of presence. Who would have thought that today's situation is different from the past, the enthusiasm of the ladies made her unable to be transparent even if she wanted to.
Yun did not expect that the eldest daughter would be so popular.
Wei Qingwan's expression on the side was a little uneasy, and the other people didn't care, even Mrs. Zhi Xu and Mrs. Qiu were the same.
She attended classes at the Tongzhifu, met the daughter of the Tongzhi family and the daughter of the Qiu family, and met these two wives several times.
But the two of them only cared about talking to Wei Qingruo, completely ignoring themselves. This kind of differential treatment deeply hurt Wei Qingwan's heart.
After a while, the crowd around Wei Ruo dispersed, and then Mrs. Zhi explained today's itinerary to everyone, and everyone nodded after listening.
So everyone started outing activities.
Xu Yaojun, the daughter of Mrs. Tongzhi, specially found Wei Qingwan, and walked side by side with Wei Qingwan.
"Wei Qingwan, Sister Ni is much better than you, look how much my mother and the others like her!" Xu Yaojun said with a smirk.
Hearing this, Wei Qingwan lowered her head and pretended not to hear Xu Yaojun's voice.
Xu Yaojun continued: "You may not know that my mother liked her very much before she met your sister, and wanted her to be my eldest brother's wife."
Wei Qingwan froze for a moment, then paused in her footsteps.
Seeing Wei Qingwan's reaction, Xu Yaojun couldn't help laughing.
Wei Qingwan pursed her lips and said, "Why are you telling me this?"
Xu Yaojun said: "It's nothing, just to tell you that you are not as outstanding as you think. I don't want to put on a noble and talented girl all day long, I can't bear it!"
