At that moment, the room was quiet.

Sitting high in the first seat was Mrs. Tang Shi, Mrs. Gu Taishi Xunxian. Hearing this, her eyelids jumped, and she almost lost the little cover clock.

She followed the voice and looked over, and saw the old woman sitting on the first rose chair on the left.

Mrs. Dingguo, Daji clan.

This year, he is more than fifty years old, his face is a little old, his temples are also white, and his face is wrinkled one by one. It's just that she still wears a set of emerald-colored headgear on her head, she wears exquisite Su embroidery, and a blood jade bracelet hangs on her wrist.

At a glance, there is one word: expensive.

She sat on the first chair on the left, and even Mrs. Dong, Mrs. Wei's wife, had to move down, only occupying the second seat on the left.

No way, who is Mrs. Dingguo's elder sister?

At the beginning, Mrs. Dingguo and the empress dowager drafted together, but the empress dowager was kept because of her beautiful appearance. Mrs. Dingguo's wife was more ordinary, she lost the election and came back to marry the current Dingguo's Prince Zhou Yuanyou.

Ben is no big deal.

Who would have thought that thirteen years ago, in a palace change, the third prince became emperor, and the year was changed the following year.

Dingguo Gongyifu, because of the Queen Mother's nepotism, rose to the top.

Mrs. Ji, the wife of Dingguo, now considers herself to be the rare first-rate among noble ladies. She has a hot temper, and her words are even more rude.

Hearing the heated discussions among the little girls outside, she couldn't help but sneer.

Just this sentence made everyone embarrassed.

They all know that Gu Juefei is a "hard bone", but in the Taishi's mansion, it is not a smart way to say it in front of everyone.

Even Tang Shi, who has always been exquisite, was choked up by this sentence.

She is Gu Chengqian's successor, not Gu Juefei's biological mother.

Gu Juefei is the pride of the Gu family. She is a stepmother, and she has never commented on this person. But at this moment, if it is arranged with Mrs. Dingguo, it will lose its dignity, and it will be easy to be misunderstood...

Mrs. Tang was a little annoyed by Mrs. Dingguo, and she was entangled in her heart, and she hadn't thought of a good word yet.

Outside, suddenly there was a voice with laughter: "Madam, Madam General is here!"

It is spring willow.

The maid who she had previously sent to welcome Lu Jinxi here.

At that moment, Tang Shi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Lu Jinxi!

Just in time!

She ignored Mrs. Dingguo's words, hurriedly put down the tea cup, stood up with her head on, and said with a smile, "It's coming, we've been waiting for it for a long time!"

When everyone was sitting before, they talked about the scene that happened on Changshun Street not long ago.

It is a lie to say that she is not curious about this general's wife: those who know her want to know what she has become in the past few years; those who do not know her want to know what kind of person she is.

The door of the inner room is open, and eight picture screens are opened inside the door as a partition.

Everyone looked over, even Da Ji, the lady of Dingguo who had just arranged Gu Juefei.

But it doesn't matter if you look at it, it's a shock at first sight!

Where did you come from like a mortal?

Simply a fairy princess.

Ice muscle and jade bone, a man like a tree in Qionglin.

Lu Jinxiren slapped the screen and walked around, of course pinching it.

She felt that the atmosphere inside was not right, so she asked the maid to pass it on first.

At this moment, the models are coming, and the skirt is slender, which is the cloud dress of the Shuiyue Guanyin; the waist is slender, like a tree swaying with a weak willow;

Not to mention, wiping the forehead on that head is really "the young girl Sue is resistant to cold, and she fights in the frost in the middle of the moon".

For a time, everyone's eyes were wrong.

Those who don't know Lu Jinxi only think that this great general's wife is really good-looking; those who know Lu Jinxi are amazed at her calm demeanor and her seemingly ageless face.

This complexion, this skin, actually seems to be still in two decades!

The room was so quiet that you could hear the needle falling.

The atmosphere was even stranger than when Mrs. Dingguo spoke about Gu Juefei earlier.

Of course Lu Jinxi felt it.

It's just that she also glanced up at the same time, and immediately noticed the age of the ladies in the seat.

In the bottom of my heart, I couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat!

It seems that the cheap and dead husband Xue Kuang is too capable, and it is not a good thing!

These women in the house are too old

Those in their forties are rare, and they can be counted on one hand; the rest are no younger than this age, fifty is not too little, and sixty is not too much!

She was a 27-year-old first-rank official, standing in the room, only to feel that her whole body was twisted.

The expression on his face was a little unnatural.

Seeing the top of her head, there is a lady in Chinese attire. Although she is also a little old, she can see that her facial features are very bright, especially that Emei is swept and has a bit of elegance.

This should be Mrs. Tang Shi's wife.

So Lu Jinxi forcibly suppressed the unnatural feeling in his heart, took two steps forward, bowed his body and said, "Mrs. Taishi, you are polite. I was delayed on the road earlier, but I accidentally arrived a little late. I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting for a long time."

Tang Shi came back to his senses.

She had met Lu Jinxi in the past, but she had never thought that Lu Jinxi was so beautiful. How could Sun Xuedai and Wei Yi be weaker?

There is Sun Xuedai's ice muscle and jade bones, and Wei Yi's Nong Yan and graceful, but only gives birth to a fairy spirit.

God, really bless these people who are already beautiful.

She thought to herself, but when she came forward, she took Lu Jinxi's hand: "Mrs. General has never come to such occasions often, but now that she is here, we are all looking forward to it here. Besides, we are just gossiping a few times. Son, it doesn't matter, but I don't dare to say anything about waiting. Our Taishi has explained it, but I want to entertain you."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked Lu Jinxi to say, "Madam, please take a seat first."

Lu Jinxi looked in the direction she waved her hand, but was secretly shocked: This chair is actually the first one on the right in this room!

The chairs nearby were already full of people, and this one was left alone. It's like it's been set aside.

No matter where you are, you can tell the truth several times in the seat.

Lu Jinxi wasn't someone who didn't understand the rules, and knew that she couldn't sit around, so she couldn't help but glance at Tang Shi.

Tang Shi knew what she was thinking, so she just bent her eyes, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes had more charm: "You can sit in this position."

In the voice, there is a bit of exclamation and a bit of helplessness.

Lu Jinxi heard it.

So, she thought about it for a while: In this position, she can indeed sit.

Taishi's wife Tang and Taifu Dong are both continuations.

Even if they are a first-class official, but the court, whenever there is a reward, is bound to mention a first-class wife.

Not to mention, there is a Gu Juefei in the Gu Mansion who seems to be on top of everyone's heads, and the Wei family offers an ancestor-like Wei Yi, all from Yuan Pei.

Gu Juefei was invisibly popular, and when it was Wei Yi's turn, he aimed at it openly and secretly. He wanted to make it difficult for his stepmother, so he sent people to beat her many times.

Mr. Dong is a good Taifu to continue the string. In recent years, he has been tossed to the point of losing his temper.

Therefore, at this moment, Mrs. Dong was only diagonally opposite Lu Jinxi, and she didn't even compete with Mrs. Dingguo for the top spot on the left. She just sat quietly as if she couldn't hear or see anything.

Lu Jinxi finally had no objection, thanked Tang Shi, and sat down.

The white hands, overlapping and covering each other, rested gently on the knees.

Many people in the room looked at her with their eyes, but she didn't see her, like a goddess, sitting upright like that.

When Tang Shi saw it, he couldn't help but praise him.

She had already called someone to serve hot tea, so she turned back and sat down before saying, "We were just talking about it here, saying that when you come, we will thank you for your life. At least tell Admiral Liu to get out of the way, or else today But I don't know how many are going to be stuck on the road."

Needless to say, Changshun Street is famous.

Lu Jinxi raised her eyes, and didn't want the topic to stay on her body at all, she said helplessly: "It's the eldest princess who drove the ducks to the shelves, but she almost didn't scare me. Today is the old lady's birthday banquet, so don't make fun of me. , let's talk a little bit."

Everyone laughed for a while.

It's true to say "catch the ducks on the shelves", but Lu Jinxi's "duck" is a bit unexpected.

But when she said it, there was a little bit of shocking complaint in her tone, which made people laugh.

Dingguo's wife Daji, who was sitting directly opposite Lu Jinxi, had been looking at Lu Jinxi for a long time, and she couldn't hold back her face when she heard this.

"Where can we old ladies find new topics to talk about? It's just that we just mentioned Mr. Gu, everyone in this room is stupid, and they seem to be saying the wrong thing to me!"

There is a faint hint of guns and sticks in the words.

Da Ji said, and swept around.

You ladies really can't wait to gag her mouth!

They are all at an age, so why is it so hard to find the owner of the house all the time?

Lu Jinxi was outside just now, of course he heard that sentence, but now...

She only had a vaguely confused expression, as if she didn't know what they were talking about before.

People are in the house, but stay out of it.

Tang Shi's smile became slightly lighter: "The girls outside are all childish. They just join in the fun of what other people are talking about. How can they know what they don't know about the sky? They don't need to know. As for Our eldest son, self-cleaning, there is nothing to criticize."

"You don't have to say good things about him."

It's not your son anyway, so why bother?

Mrs. Dingguo shook her head.

"He Gu Juefei is naturally a first-class and powerful person, and anyone who sees it feels good."

"But I watched with a cold eye. After so many years, the girl who liked him was gone, but he was stinky and hard, and he refused to marry any of them."

"Just like Jiang Zhilan, the eldest young lady of the Jiang family, a famous family in Jiangnan, what a good girl? She threw her shyness for him and confessed it with a piano sound. The result was good. He didn't stay half a step in Jinling, and went to Yangzhou in a blink of an eye."

"Madam, you and the old lady, didn't you talk about this too?"

"What was the result?"

"Jiguan didn't get a wife for nine years. If it wasn't for Gu Juefei, he would have become the laughing stock of the whole capital. It's just such a stone in a ditch, thanks to these girls, it's a shame!"

This is to say, it is actually more and more unbearable.

Lu Jinxi's eyelids jumped up, and he felt a little joy: Gu Juefei, in everyone's mouth, was a jade stage fairy, but when it came to Da Ji's mouth, it turned into a pit stone.

As soon as she raised her eyes, she felt in a trance that the eye knives were flying around in the room, as if they were all heading towards Da Ji.
