Chapter 272： flower viewing party

The carriage ran for a quarter of an hour, and there was no doubt that there was another traffic jam. But today there was only a banquet for the female family members, and the carriages were relatively few, and they could move again after a quarter of an hour.

After stopping according to the rules, she took the ginkgo and handed it in. Today, there are few people and no male guests, so you can bring a maid to serve.

There are willows planted on both sides of the road, the breeze caressed, and the blue waves rippling, disturbing a pool of spring water. Looking at the spring in the garden, I feel relieved.

Today's banquet was set in the garden, and the maid led her all the way and saw all kinds of flowers, but most of them were in the garden.

As soon as she stepped into the garden, she saw several pots of red chrysanthemums and yellow chrysanthemums on the far right of her, with fine hairs on the leaves, and a layer of yellow stamens in the middle of the red chrysanthemums.

Next to several pots of chrysanthemums, there is a pot of two-color chrysanthemums, a pot of green chrysanthemums, and the most peculiar one. Its flower color is pink and white with a little yellowish green, and it looks very precious.

Chrysanthemum has the character of Qinghan and Aoxue, and has always been appreciated by scholars and writers. Now is the blooming season of chrysanthemums, and there are all kinds of chrysanthemums in this corner.

On the other side, along the shore, a row of roses of various colors were planted, red, white, pink, and purple.

There are various kinds of precious flowers in the garden, but unfortunately she doesn't know much, only some common flowers such as chrysanthemum, peony and rose. The more expensive ones can't be named, but looking at the shape and color of the flowers, she can tell that they are not ordinary.

It can be seen that she is a rough person. For such an elegant thing as appreciating flowers, she is only suitable for watching. It is better to open her mouth and discuss flowers with people. It is not suitable for a country person like her.

Follow the maid and go further, and you will reach the center of the garden. There is a pavilion that can accommodate a dozen people, and there is a lake and a rockery next to it.

She noticed that the garden seemed to be built around the lake. After they entered the garden, they saw the lake not long after walking, and then they walked along the lake.

She told the question to the maid who led the way.

The maid replied with a smile: "Madam is right, this garden was built around Jinghu Lake, and only a few small courtyards were built next to it for people to rest."

"I said why this lake looks so big. You can see it within a few steps from entering. It is so clear that man-made lakes can't be compared. This garden is really beautiful."

"No, I heard that this land was still open in the heyday of the previous dynasty, and people can play at will. It is also a scene in Dong'an City, and it is most popular with literati. The tyrants of the people took it by force and built the mansion."

Later, she knew without the maid telling her that after dividing the fiefs, the mansion naturally belonged to the palace.

The palace is considered to be a ready-made bargain, and this courtyard will be beautiful if it is casually renovated. After all, there is such a beautiful lake as decoration.

It seems that you can row boats here to pick lotus pods in summer. This garden can be said to be a good place for spring, summer and autumn.

The maid led them to her seat and left.

The seats were sorted according to the official position of the husband, and Pei Xiu didn't care because he didn't know the names on the text cards on the left and right sides. But it was watched by people with a heart.

The princess and the prince's wife hadn't come yet, and everyone was not in a hurry to take a seat, and they all chatted and admired flowers with people they knew.

Mrs. Lou walked slowly beside Mrs. Zheng, and said loudly, "What is Mrs. Zhou looking at? Shouldn't she be illiterate, which position is yours looking at?"

She laughed exaggeratedly while talking, which attracted everyone's attention.

Pei Xiu had heard Mrs. Qiu say before that Mrs. Zheng was born in the Lou family, and this Mrs. Lou was the younger sister-in-law of her family.

As soon as she came in and hadn't sat down, the two of them couldn't wait to come together. They wanted to make her look ugly.

"Mrs. Lou is joking. The precious flowers and plants in this whole garden can't attract you, and they can still make you notice me here. It makes me a little embarrassed." She said calmly with WeChat on her face, and didn't see it at all. Where did it go wrong.

"Who told us to sit close together? I noticed it all at once. I'm afraid you don't know a single character and can't find a seat, so I want to come and help you."

Mrs. Lou said without a smile, and everyone could hear the irony in her words.

She also wanted to please her eldest sister-in-law. The younger nephew had been lying on the bed for more than two months and couldn't get out of bed to move around. The eldest sister-in-law must have hated the Zhou family.

Rarely now has the opportunity, she will help her aunt to vent her anger first.

"Then I would like to thank Mrs. Lou for her kindness. The palace does everything well, and the maid showed me the seat when she led the way. Mrs. Lou doesn't have to rush to do it." Who wouldn't say sarcastic words, and she also insinuated that Mrs. Lou didn't have to catch up. to be her maid.

Mrs. Lou's face shook and she sneered, "Yes, I almost forgot that the maid would indicate the seat. Fortunately, the palace is complete, otherwise Mrs. Zhou would not have become a headless fly, swaying anxiously but timidly dared to speak. ."

"That's not so. It's not a shame to not know how to read. A woman is virtuous if she has no talent. If she has talent but no virtue and shamelessness, it will be a shame for the whole family. Madam Lou, do you think so?"

Mrs. Lou's face was ashen with anger. Is this a mockery of her daughter-in-law's immorality and shamelessness?

The Lou family's eldest miss was originally known as Mandong'an City, but she quietly entered the second son's mansion as a concubine, and then the second son was sentenced to the camp. This is also a place that many people are curious about, but can't explore.

Seeing Mrs. Lou's simple and normal words, everyone was angry and a little puzzled, and couldn't help but think.

These officials and wives do not know how many they have, and they are as smart as torches.

Mrs. Zheng squeezed Mrs. Lou's hand~ Mrs. Lou forced a smile out.

"Mrs. Zhou has never read, but she knows a lot, and she's eloquent, so you can't underestimate those who come out of the country. It hurts to be bitten by accident." Mrs. Zheng looked at Pei Xiu's expressionless face. said.

Others also heard that the Zheng family's youngest son's legs were discounted by the Zhou family's son.

Now it seems that Mrs. Zheng hasn't swallowed her breath. This is a bright sarcasm and she wants to find fault.

Also, the most beloved young son is still lying down and can't get out of bed, which mother will feel better about it.

It's okay if I haven't seen it, I can still tell myself to bear it, how can I feel good in my heart when I can't breathe when I see it.

Others are not familiar with this Mrs. Zhou, and they do not interfere with the idea that one more thing is worse than one less thing. Some people may even gloat at the misfortune to see how Pei Xiu will deal with this aunt who is not good to the visitor.
