"Since my husband said that we will become younger, it's also good to be born two years later. It's just right for us to spend more time with my husband."
Nong Yue at the side chimed in, "That's right, that's right."
"We are still young, how can we rush to have children? My husband said that having children is the most damaging to one's health."
"Sisters, you don't want to become old and ugly, do you?"
Hiss~ At this moment, several women seemed to feel that they were caught by the power of heaven and earth. Aging and losing beauty is the world of women.
Not to mention Fu Yuehua, even Xi Honglei was considering whether to give birth or not.
"Ahem, let's all go."
"Well, if you want to go to the Red Tears Room, go quickly, but don't play too late. My husband said he would make up the time for us to play tomorrow."
"It just so happens that Su Xiaoxiao, the head of Hongxiuyuan, has sent an invitation to our family."
"I heard that Su Xiaoxiao invited the third prince Li Chengyu this time, so I think it should be a big event."
"Sisters, you have never seen a gathering in the capital. You can go and see it together this time."
Xi Honglei and the other outsiders were all curious about what Fu Yuehua said and planned to go and see the poetry reading tomorrow.
What was unexpected was that this poetry reading was held in the Third Prince’s Prince Jin’s Mansion.
Among Li Xiuzhu's family, only Fu Yuehua knew this, after all, she was the one who saw the invitation.
When the three carriages stopped at the gate of Prince Jin's mansion, the soldiers guarding the gate did not pay much attention and just thought that they came together.
But when the carriage approached and the guard saw the hanging lights on the carriage, he was also startled.
Did they come to the poetry meeting as a family? Or did they just happen to meet and go together?
As a man and a group of women appeared, the two guards' lips twitched and they understood.
Well! It turned out to be the champion Hou Li family, that's not surprising, this bastard has several of the most beautiful women in Beijing.
At the same time, several women who saw the plaque of Prince Jin's Mansion were also stunned.
Li Shishi glanced at the plaque and asked in disbelief, "Sister Nong Yue, are all the poetry gatherings in the capital held in the palace?"
Nong Yue was speechless when she heard this and said, "How is that possible? It's uncertain."
"But except for the Imperial Palace and the East Palace, it seems to have been opened everywhere."
Li Xiuzhu also nodded. He had known Li Biyao in Taoyuan before.
"That's pretty impressive. In our place, they're basically all in restaurants. And the restaurants at the border are a little hard to describe. They can't be compared to the ones in the capital."
“I don’t know what kind of style it is inside.”
Li Xiuzhu smiled slightly when he heard this, tightened the cloak for Yun Shuang beside him and said, "Since you are curious, why don't you go in and take a look and you will know."
It is now the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and it can almost be said to be the coldest day yet.
But the snow hasn’t fallen yet this year, so it’s not that cold yet.
Led by Li Xiuzhu, the whole family went in.
Also not present today are Yinping and the two little ones.
Although there is no explicit rule prohibiting children from being brought to poetry readings, it is generally not allowed to bring children under the age of ten.
Li Xiuzhu and others came to participate in the poetry reading, not to cause trouble, so they would naturally not knowingly commit crimes just for their own convenience.
As soon as they entered the courtyard of Prince Jin's Mansion, everyone except Fu Yuehua's sister, the princess' sisters, Nong Yue, and Xi Honglei were looking at Prince Jin's Mansion curiously.
After passing through the reception room and entering the back garden, the women suddenly felt a little bored.
"This Prince Jin's Mansion doesn't seem as luxurious as our Marquis' Mansion."
Fu Yuehua frowned.
"Silence."
Xiao Qiao immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing. He quickly shrank his head, stuck out his tongue, and looked at Li Xiuzhu and Fu Yuehua with some fear.
Li Xiuzhu noticed Xiao Qiao's gaze, turned to look at Xiao Qiao, and explained to the others: "There are specifications and standards for any house you live in in the capital."
Xiao Qiao and the others were stunned. So that's how it was. When their family lived on the border, they built whatever size they wanted.
Suddenly Xiao Qiao became a little anxious.
"Husband, I don't know. I hope it won't cause trouble to our family."
Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.
"Our room belongs to the former Grand Tutor, so it's naturally bigger."
"Besides, most of our mansion was decorated by Yuehua herself, so the gardens and craftsmanship are naturally better."
"But our garden was given by His Majesty. No one dares to make a fuss about it. Don't worry."
"Phew, that's good!" Xiao Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and patted her own bigness, still a little frightened.
Li Xiuzhu took a look and was unable to take his eyes away.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The two girls, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, haven't slept with me for a few days, so we have to arrange for them to do so in the evening.
Just then, because of their arrival, a man wearing lake green Su brocade and a white mink cloak came forward.
"My Lord, ladies, welcome to today's poetry gathering. I am Su Xiaoxiao."
Su Xiaoxiao? When Su Xiaoxiao was looking at Li Xiuzhu, Li Xiuzhu was also looking at Su Xiaoxiao.
She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and spoke with the soft, gentle Wu dialect of the south of the Yangtze River.
She has beautiful facial features, affectionate eyes and a sense of resentment, as if Lin Daiyu has descended to the earth.
"I've long heard that Xiao Xiao Da's lyrics and music are unparalleled. Now that I see her, she looks like a goddess from heaven."
"I wonder if I will have the honor to listen to a song today."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled when she heard that, and it seemed that the sadness in her eyes was less.
"If someone else asks, I will definitely say no, but if the Marquis wants to hear it, I naturally dare not refuse."
Li Xiuzhu spotted Watson in an instant, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't dare? So you are deliberately refusing? Then forget it. The last thing I want to do in my life is to force others."
Wives and concubines: We don’t know who forced us to call him dad.
Xi Honglei: I don’t know who told me that you don’t want anything to happen to Qi Shaoshang.
Women at the border: Although we were not forced, we had no choice.
However, they all love Li Xiuzhu now, so naturally they won't sabotage him.
Su Xiaoxiao gave Li Xiuzhu a coquettish look and said with self-pity, "My Lord, you said that because you look down on my little skills, right?"
"That's right. Sister Nong Yue and Sister You Wei both followed the Marquis. How can the Marquis appreciate our shoddy work?"
Good fellow, this is a Yin-Yang technique, are you the reincarnation of Lin Daiyu? "Don't say that, everyone has their own expertise, I never look down on anyone."
Li Xiuzhu paused after speaking.
"Since Xiaoxiao has said this, I must listen to this song."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled brightly upon hearing this, and said softly, "My Lord, ladies, please take a seat with me."
At this moment, the women behind Li Xiuzhu were looking at each other, as if countless words were generated in their eyes.
"What do you think Su Xiaoxiao means?"
"I think she is seducing our husband."
"Yanran, do you think it's you too? I think so too."
