Chapter 91: Going to a banquet
Tao curled his lips and said, "The Twelve Girls have nothing to say, so I'll talk about it. The girls in the family are delicacies, all of whom are well-equipped, and the mothers and maids serve them. The Twelve Girls have been kept by the old lady since childhood. They have a high vision and look down on the things I prepared for her. They say that those things cannot be put on the table and asked me to keep them for the servants. I think Miss Twelve still remembers this, right?"
"Why don't my wife say what is the preparation?" Chen Dannian retorted without showing any weakness. Chen Danfu and the other concubines didn't know what expressions they should show. Chen Dannian is a fool, right? He is so stupid.
Tao did not answer Chen Dannian's words, and looked at Chen's mother and said, "Old lady, what would you do if the second and third aunts talked to you like this? Teach me, I can follow the example."
The fat on Mother Chen's face shook. If her two concubines dared to talk to her like this, she would immediately forbid their feet and punish them not to eat for a day, and copy the "Book of Filial Piety" a hundred times. But she could not say this. Besides, Chen Dan's thoughts did not respect her mother, which was taught openly and secretly.
"It's getting late, you all go out as a guest." Chen's mother avoided the question of Tao.
Tao did not hold on, but squinted his eyes and squinted his mind with a smile, and retreated with everyone.
Because I was going out, there were more than a dozen sedans parked outside the gate of Xuanzi courtyard. The sedans were specially used for transportation by girls and wives in the inner courtyard. Each sedan was carried by two thick servants. After Mr. Shen died, in order to save some, except for Mrs. Shen's sedan, everyone else was reduced. Today, because he had to go to the second gate, the distance was a little farther. Lin asked his servants to carry the sedans out of the warehouse yesterday morning for the purpose of ordering.
They each got on the sedan chair with their own maids, and soon they arrived outside the second gate. With the help of their maids, they got off the sedan chair with their own maids. Outside the second gate were five blue-covered and blue-covered tin-topped carriages. Except for the first one was a carriage, the other four were tamed mules.
Lin took Chen Danqi, Chen Danqi and Shen Baishou to the first carriage. Chen Danyao had already been engaged and was not convenient to go out for a guest, so he stayed at home to embroider the dowry.
Zhou took Chen Danwei and Shen Danfu into the second carriage. Shen Baikuan refused to ride the car with his mother and sister, and insisted on riding a horse. Zhou could not resist his son and had to go with her.
Tao carried Chen Danxia into the carriage and turned around and said, "Miss Twelve is so shabby that she can't let the Shen family go out, so don't go, stay at home."
"I don't." Chen Dannian certainly didn't want to. This was the first time she went out so old that she didn't stay at home. Unfortunately, she couldn't make it right. Although Tao didn't care about the housekeeper, she was the third wife in the mansion and had plenty of money. Mrs. Qi had already sold a large number of people for her.
Chen Dannian was stopped by someone, and even his mouth was covered, even screaming. Lin didn't care about the third wife, and their legitimate mother and daughter were fighting, so she didn't interfere. As the legitimate wife, she didn't like the illegitimate ones. Although the eldest wife had no illegitimate daughter, she had a worse illegitimate son.
After watching the excitement, Zhou put down the curtain of the car and glanced at Danfu. Fortunately, the concubine son and daughter in her room were quite worry-free.
Chen Danfu lowered her eyebrows and looked honest. As a concubine's daughter, she knew very well that it would not be too easy for her mother to control the concubine's daughter. Now it is a small punishment. If the third aunt is more cruel and marry Chen Dannian to a bad man, then Chen Dannian will be ruined for the rest of her life. So, no matter who she offends, don't offend her mother.
After the Shen family all got on the car, the coachman shook the reins and drove the carriage out of the corner gate. Only then did the women let go of Chen Dannian. Chen Dannian moaned, pulled his feet and ran to Xuanziyuan, telling Shen's mother Tao's case.
Chen's mother looked at Chen Dannian's bun because of struggle, sighed deeply, and said, "Your mother is from a small family, has a short-lived family, and is even smaller than a needle. When she comes back, I will see if I don't scold her. You are wronged today. When your father comes back, grandmother asks him to compensate you well." After the incident in these days, Chen's mother now can't control the Tao, and she expects Chen Muke to come back to teach her a lesson.
"Grandmother is the best." Chen Dannian snuggled beside Shen's mother and said in a sweet voice.
In order to comfort her, Chen's mother also gave her two colorful glass bead strings. These bead strings can be worn on her hands and wrapped around a bun. Chen Dan thought more and more that Chen's mother was good, and Tao was hateful.
What Chen Dannian thought about, Tao didn't care at all. She didn't want to seriously care about this concubine daughter who was wronged by Chen's mother. It wasn't her child. She wouldn't have her free time, so she might as well make more pairs of new shoes for her.
The carriage was swaying for half an hour and arrived at Chongyong Street where the Xu Mansion was located. Today, there were many guests coming to Xu Mansion to celebrate his birthday. The carriage of the Shen family was blocked at the intersection. Fortunately, it was still early, and the Shen family was not in a hurry and sat in the carriage and waited patiently.
Suddenly, there was a commotion coming from the face. A servant came over to ask the driver of the Shen family to move the carriage aside. Chen Danxia lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out. He saw a carriage with green bead tassels painted with golden Tenglong patterns coming over, surrounded by servants on both sides of the carriage.
