The little car stopped, raised the curtain for Xiliang Mo, got out and saw a woman with a bow, dressed in a plum red chrysanthemum, smiling and leading a group of girls to the Han family. Welcoming her.
She has a long face and pale skin, making her lips look unusually red. One pair of Danfeng's eyes are slightly tinted, but her eyebrows are tinted. Her hair is curled up and a red-gold-green phoenix in the middle. A southern pearl necklace hung between her eyebrows, and six red and gold hairpins were also worn, and a large southern pearl necklace like longan was hung around her neck and neck.
This woman is very rich, but she has lost her elegance, she does not seem like a lady of a family, but a woman of a rich family.
Xi Liang Mo couldn't help but be slightly surprised. The most important thing in this century-old family are the rules and the birth. How could such a woman appear here?
Xi Liangyue leaned in and whispered disdainfully, "That is Sister Feng, Ms. Zhao's second daughter-in-law, who was originally the daughter-in-law of the Feng family, the richest man in Luoyang. Although the Feng family is rich, it is the older generation who did business. I just started to get rich, and I don't know what people in my family think. In fact, he married such a woman because of her grandson. Now Ms. Zhao has lost her sister Yan , and she has not hesitated. It is Sister Feng who acts as the agent. At home. "
What you think is that it is not just because of other people's wealth, Xiliang's family has actually been reduced to using grandchildren to marry merchants they have always considered humble. Money and material expenditure of the family should be very optimistic. ., Xiliang Mo thought silently.
The Zhao Family didn't seem to like this daughter-in-law very much. No matter how thoughtful and thoughtful Sister Feng was, her expression was extremely cold, but Sister Feng didn't seem to care either. she greeted Xi Liang Mo, and she was truly blessed: "Greetings from Feng to the princess."
Xi Liang Mo smiled and reached out to give a fake help: "How can this be done, but everything is a family, so the sister-in-law does not need to be so polite."
But the ceremony was still accepted. Like her princess, if she followed the court ceremony, the Zhao family would also give her a gift.
But perhaps others do not believe it, some people gathered in the shadows whispered softly: "Look at her frivolous appearance of her, actually she asked the second wife to greet her."
"I mean, I don't even look at what I am. I really think I'm a princess."
"A princess who can't even write well has settled down."
"Ha ha...."
But at this extreme, Sister Feng still had a smile on her face and she didn't see any shame. Instead, he looked Xiliang Mo up and down and then smiled: "The princess is really beautiful, such a divine daughter, No wonder Grandpa is like this, so I have been reluctant to tell the laity for many years. Please come here. The elders of the family look forward to your visit. "
This Feng sister had an intelligent mouth and she smiled with three tips when she saw people. She was a cunning and powerful character. She deserved to be born into a great merchant. Xiliang Mo smiled and didn't reply, but she addressed herself.
The main patio is a four-sided room. The pitch-black pillars almost require two people to hug. Right above it is the plaque "One Hundred Years of Liufang" written by Emperor Taizong. The upper chair is already seated in dark blue. The old woman with the golden silk bedspread with the golden scorpion pattern and the peach jade head and face is exactly the old woman's sister-in-law. Uncle's wife, Ms. Yu, is different from the old woman who always smiles. Taijun Yu looked even older and more solemn, which was discouraging.
Sitting next to him was a four-word blessing cloud brocade dress with a black cap. The same serious old woman was the head of the Xiliang family, the first of the original Hanlin Academy, and Xiliangjian, a university academic.
There were about a dozen people sitting left and right, except for the Zhao family, Xi Liang Mo did not know him.
She bowed respectfully to the old woman and old Yu. The expression on her face relaxed a bit and she solemnly waved her hand to signal him to get up. The mother next to her immediately stepped forward and handed Xi a handbag. Liang Mo, regarded as a reunion ceremony, the old woman also asked Chang Sui to give her a jade ruyi.
She also gave Xiliangyue and Xiliangdan their respective rewards, which were not expensive, and Xiliangdan pursed her lips in disdain.
Xi Liang Mo secretly sighed, this family really became more and more difficult. I remember that Xi Liangshuang walked over and gave many exquisite rewards.
Xi Liang Mo asked Bai Rui to pick him up before getting up, while Xi Liang Dan and Xi Liang Yue were behind Han.
Sister Feng smiled and wanted to take her hand and introduce her to other people one by one, but Xi Liangmo refused to let her take her hand, she stood still and laughed without saying a word. Sister Feng's hand froze., But she immediately she briefly introduced herself to other people, such as the three uncles, the fourth aunt, and the five aunts.
After the introduction, Xiliang Mo smiled and blessed left and right, which was regarded as a greeting: "Dear elders, Xiliang Mo is courteous."
These people were waiting for Xi Liang Mo to come to the ceremony so they could disarm her and by the way, they would satisfy her vanity to be seen by the princess.
Now that Xi Liang Mo didn't buy it at all, he couldn't help but feel a bit indecisive on his face.
An aunt smiled strangely: "Oh, don't you dare, you are not only the imperial seal princess, but also the future princess Hehe, we who have no degree or title should be your gift."
"Where, the third aunt has seen you, Sister Mo is always gentle and filial piety is the most important. At home, she is naturally organized according to family. How can she be like outsiders who don't understand the rules ? "Han immediately smiled and looked towards Xiliang Mo.
This statement was actually forcing Xiliang Mo to greet these people. In this way, no matter how noble his status is, he also realized a lower status than these people. The other part of her wanted to use the courtesy of the elders to pressure her into doing things. and she didn't. It is good to refute it.
But if she refuses to bow, she is not filial, arrogant and does not understand the rules.
Xiliang Mo smiled softly, his voice was neither authoritative nor authoritative: "Our Xiliang family has always been an heir to the bells, rituals, poems and books. Naturally, Mo'er is not the one who does not know the rules, but now Mo 'er has a royal title. After all the uncles and aunts bow to the court, Mo'er will naturally pay the elders one by one, saving our family's reputation for being disrespectful to the monarch. "
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in Xiliang's family seemed stiff. If you follow the rules of the court, you must first respect the emperor and distinguish between dignity and inferiority, and then use the rites of the elders and the youngest. generations, but they have always assumed their own family status.Higher than the side branch, arrogant, how willing to greet a girl?
Old Lady Yu couldn't help but furrow her brows and she looked at Xi Liang Mo in disgust.
Sister Feng saw that the atmosphere was not right and was quick to say with a smile: "Well, it's all from my own family. The grandson-in-law takes the princess for a walk. The girls in the inner courtyard take a long time. time waiting for the princess to come. "
The old man raised his eyes and nodded coldly.
Xi Liang Mo bowed under Sister Feng's guidance and withdrew.
"The good daughter you raised is so great." Yu Laotai Jun coldly struck Han with the staff, and the rest of the Xiliang family glared.
Han looked at Master Jingguo, who had been sitting quietly, and he seemed to have an indescribable smile: "Senior lady, Sister Mo has always been arrogant and has an idea, and my nephew is uncontrollable at times."
"I can't be the master, can she still dare to rebel against the elder of hers? To marry Hehe tomorrow, we will not lose the face of our Xiliang family." Yu Laotaijun's complexion is even worse. In Xiliang's house, the Han elders always said there are not two, they do not even put life to die.
"Old lady, Sister Mo may not be willing," Han said sheepishly.
"I don't want to. The marriage of the children has always been the order of the parents. The words of the matchmaker, let her go, she has to go. She has put a big face on him, and she still dares to resist marriage." . . He is speechless. How can you raise such a vulgar and rebellious daughter? Lao Taijun Yu's cold face was already slightly angry.
Han was proud, but he looked at Duke Yasukuni as if he felt guilty.
Duke Yasukuni said with no expression on his face, "Auntie, isn't this the person who is close to him and is still arguing?"
"Regardless of what is discussed, I settled on this girl. Getting married is also a way of grinding her frivolous temper. A rebellious and unfilial girl stays in front of her to keep an eye on her. It would be better if she could make some contribution to the family afterwards. to get married. It's settled. If you dare to resist your orders, don't blame me for dealing with the clan's rules, "Yu Laotaijun said angrily. She always has been an irresistible existence in the Xiliang family. Not even the old woman dared to confront her, she was stubborn and rigid, he is also irritable, and I do not see the spring breeze that she is more proud of.
...
Arriving at the plum grove in the garden, waiting for Sister Feng to bring her own family's girls, Xi Liang Mo suddenly asked Xi Liangyue, who was behind her at an unknown time: "Yue'er, What's wrong with princess hehe? "
He once asked Mother He, and Mother He only knew that each generation of Lord He asked to marry a noble girl from the celestial dynasty, and since the beginning of Emperor Taizu, the daughter of the Xiliang family had been married. until the daughter married. She died. He begged to take a noble lady from the Xiliang family to be the princess.
This time, concubine Yu'er, the fourth concubine who married eight years ago, died, so King Hehe came to ask for another marriage.
Xi Liangyue hesitated for a moment and then whispered, "Yue'er was also heard from rumors that this is originally the driest and most bitter place in my neighboring country. Local nomads are much more ferocious than dogs, and there are fewer women. To prevent them from always harassing each other, the celestial dynasty not only gave each other money every year, but also sent women there. This princess Hehe sounded good, in fact, after marrying King Hehe, she equaled all their royal men Either father, brother, uncle, nephew Can be enjoyed, just to have offspring. The daughter of the Xiliang family who married in the past prevents her parents from being affected. She suffers all the humiliations but dares She does not judge herself until she dies and usually lives less than twenty. "
"If you don't live to be twenty, how old was the last princess to marry?" Xi Liang Mo was shocked.
"Ten years, I heard that she was born to concubine Ji, who is the least favored by the owner." Xi Liangyue shook her head, as if she was terrified.
Ten years old? !
Xi Liang Mo bit her lip in shock, and almost irrepressible anger flashed in her eyes: "Are these people from the Xiliang family all beasts?"
