Chapter 235 – Ah Yu’s Naughty
Zhao Su felt that this was a bit of a redundant question, but let’s just take it as Luo Yanru looking for something to say to bring her closer. She said, “My father has stated to me more than once about the old tai shi’s embrace of the country and of the imperial court, and also honors the old taijun very much, telling me that the Luo family made an invitation to treat the marquis house as a close person, so today, even though I have to go on a mission, I’m still coming to give the old madam a birthday wish.”
Luo Yanru paused under her so sharp retort. She smiled and said, “This sincerity of the Marquis and the girl is truly touching.”
“It should be.” Zhao Su also grinned.
Attending this kind of banquet was like attending a class reunion in the old days, more or less awkward and able to be alone.
Sociable person like Luo Yanru, her words were also a bit difficult to follow for a while. Then said: “Let’s go to the front pavilion to sit down, the girls are there.”
Zhao Su knew that this was inevitable, got up and was about to leave, when a few people came in front of him, and on closer inspection, they were the same ones in the pavilion just now.
“Miss Yan was here, we’ve been waiting for you for half a day.” Song Tian’er in lotus root color dress said, her smile was also very sweet, she took Luo Yanru’s arm and looked over towards Zhao Su: “Isn’t this Marquis Qingyun’s sister Su? Just now I looked like it, but I didn’t dare to recognize it, I haven’t seen you in the past few months, you’ve really changed a lot.”
Zhao Su knew at a glance that this was with He Wan Yu and the rest of them along the way. That’s why she didn’t love attending this kind of party, any demon or devil could come out.
She pulled the corner of her mouth, “Yeah, I didn’t recognize it either. You are?”
Song Tian’er’s smile froze and she frowned, “What do you mean?”
Seeing this, Luo Yanru hurriedly interjected, “Miss Su, this is the second young lady of Grand Governor Song’s residence, Miss Tian’er, you’ve been burdened with two errands lately, and you’ve hardly come out to socialize, could it be that you didn’t think of it all of a sudden?”
A deputy governor only, also have the nerve to talk about the great governor, Zhao Su muttered in her heart, but on her face she smiled, “So it’s the second miss Song, so everyone has changed a lot, the second miss Song I remembered wasn’t like this either.”
Song Tian’er couldn’t pretend anymore and withdrew her hand from Luo Yanru.
When the host family was present, especially when everyone knew in their hearts what they were here for today, the discord was still pressed down.
At this time, a maid walked over to Luo Yanru’s side and said something with her ear, then Luo Yanru said, “This open air place is too hot, why don’t we go inside and sit down, and it’s easier to have some refreshments.”
Saying this, she had already taken Zhao Su’s hand.
Zhao Su felt that the house was spacious and crowded, and it would be easy to find a corner to stay down by herself when the time came, so she readily accepted the good advice and went with them to the middle of the small building.
Just as he entered the door, he heard a cheerful laughter, “Luo Shiyi nephew is a handsome young man, he has the style of his ancestor, old master, you have a successor!”
Inside the downstairs hall that had been set up as a large tea room, Elder Eunuch Luo was talking with two middle-aged men, and beside the Elder Eunuch stood a refined and handsome teenager.
Elder Master Luo modestly: “Just a little talent, young people, should be modest and diligent study is.”
Said to see the door came in these girls, he said: “We go outside to walk.”
The girls moved to the side, and when they left, Zhao Su realized that there were still several young ladies who were following Luo Rui.
In all fairness, with such a noble family lineage, Luo Rui himself having been awarded a jinshi at a young age, and with good looks and figure, he was indeed more desirable. Although Zhao Sumi was also a famous flower peacock, but after all, he was not as civilized as Luo Rui, there were still some people who would not like a military general. And Zhang Huai is also a handsome and talented man, but he also no longer has any parents, after all, he is only Zhang Yu’s nephew, a shallow layer of difference.
Married to Luo Rui, one is the young grandmother, can participate in the family, the two young aunt and will soon be married off, the family clean. In addition, the Luo family this situation, the sisters always have to look for a good husband and son-in-law, so, the family family lineage are not weak, where to find?
Zhao Su is sitting at the table in front of the door, high on melon seeds to see them.
As soon as Song Tian’er withdrew her gaze and saw Zhao Su’s appearance, she instantly blushed, and also walked over to sit down, sizing her up, “I heard that your engagement with the Xu family was lost earlier–”
“Stop!” Zhao Su stopped with a voice after hearing a word, “I have no engagement with the Xu family, and a recuperated young lady is not interested in rumor mongering.”
Song Tian’er sunk her face: “It’s not that we haven’t formally invited the matchmaker to hire them, but Xu Chong has made it known on the streets, so why are you still hiding it? Having a marriage contract is not something honorable, why hasn’t your family promised you out yet? It’ll be even more troublesome if it drags on. Even if the man’s family is close, as long as it is willing to take over, you should also cherish it.”
Zhao Su is a good girl, of course not happy to hear this ah. She threw the melon shells: “Yo, you look down on your own daughter body? Look at you so virtuous and virtuous, eighty percent is the future married man immediately want to give her husband three, four, five, six concubines, right? When your concubines give birth, you’ll have to go and serve them in person?”
Song Tian’er was so angry that her nose was smoking, “I come from a noble background, how would I do such a thing? You had a marriage contract with someone before, so you had already dropped your price! Otherwise, look at all the powerful people in the capital, who would go to your family to propose marriage?”
The Luo family was embarrassed by these words, everyone knew that the girls invited to the residence today were all here to see Luo Rui, Song Tian’er’s words sounded like she was criticizing Zhao Su, but wasn’t she also squeezing the Luo family?
Luo Yanru looked at the servants who were worriedly looking over, and didn’t say anything, but instead looked at Zhao Su inquisitively.
Zhao Su neither intended to act like a lady, nor did she intend to succeed with Luo Rui, it was impossible for her to be as angry as Song Tian’er, and she got high on melon seeds to Song Tian’er, who had reddened her cheeks.
The rest of the boudoir girls also sat down, around the time they saw Zhao Su’s dislike back, the atmosphere was all slightly different. A few people turned their heads to play chess from the side, and a moment later someone said with a naughty smile, “You’re the one who ate my penny the moment you came here, but if it were someone else, I would have to say a few words to her, saying that she doesn’t know her own strength, and that she’s a toad who wants to eat swan’s meat!”
This mouth is really powerful!
At that moment, the ladies sitting around all ate and laughed, among which Song Tian’er’s laughter was the most ear-piercing, and her voice was even more ear-piercing when she answered: “Who says it isn’t? There are a lot of people under the sky who don’t think they have the power of their family and the Empress Dowager’s favor, and when they become an errand boy, they can’t be compared to anyone else!”
Hua Qianrong had already clenched her fists and looked at Zhao Su. Yun Xiangyi, who had never been in a proper form, also furrowed her brows, a stern light emerging from her eyes.
“Big Miss! The Holy Driver has descended, the old master ordered my little one to come and deliver the message, asking you to immediately go to the main gate to welcome the Holy Driver!”
Right at this moment, a butler rushed in three steps at a time outside the door, his voice excitedly reporting towards Luo Yanru!
