Abandoned Daughter from a Noble Family: Poison to the World
Chapter 55: How little money to buy tea?
Fulu Hall, three thousand beads and shoes.
The whole hall was filled with dignitaries from Yunchuan City. They were wearing the most fashionable materials and hairpins, and they were gathered together in twos and threes.
The old lady was not of high birth, and her father was just a minor official in the Hanlin Academy. She was able to marry the old marquis only because she was lucky enough to save his life.
A golden phoenix cannot fly out of a grass nest. Twenty years ago, the ladies of Yunchuan City did not look down upon her golden head and face, which was full of wealth and wealth.
"Looking at it all, it is the old woman who loves your daughter the most. Even if you are marrying a nobleman from Tianhuang, you still have to protect her. You are like a bowl of water."
A lady in her thirties was flattering and said nice words and compliments.
News in Yunchuan City flows very fast, and all of a sudden, everyone knows what happened last night.
Another middle-aged lady in moon-white clothes was sitting on the top chair. She was in her thirties. She held up a pair of beautiful and eye-catching nails and said leisurely: "Mrs. Zhang's words are not pleasant to listen to. How can the old lady be a bowl?" Shui Duanping, you just moved to the capital with your husband, so I’m afraid you don’t know the old lady’s temperament.”
The lady did not flatter the old lady, she just sneered.
"Princess Meiyuan has lived in the capital since she was a child, so she naturally knows more than me, a person from Lingnan, so I dare to ask the princess, what is the temperament of the old lady?"
Mrs. Zhang spoke softly and in a bad tone, but she also greeted her with a smile.
Princess Meiyuan was dressed in a low-key manner and did not even look at the person speaking opposite.
He didn't answer for a long time and directly despised the other person.
On the other hand, Nanny Lin, who was waiting on the side, answered the conversation with a bright smile.
"Mrs. Zhang is young, so of course she doesn't know this. We old ladies feel sorry for Miss Qu the most. Other families value sons over daughters, but in the Marquis Mansion, they treat their daughters as their darlings."
Many ladies believed it to be true and praised the old lady.
Princess Meiyuan's mother is the King of Pingyang. She has been pampered since she was born, and no one dares to refute her face.
"Then why, last night, many people saw King Mu beating Su Qu with their own eyes?"
She smiled faintly, not taking it too seriously, "Wang Mu's biological mother was not from a high background, she was a shrew in the market, and she was like a dragon and a phoenix. Naturally, Wang Mu was also a bastard."
Princess Meiyuan pretended to be exaggerated, "Don't you know that King Mu is a rogue who knows how to beat his wife? Anyone with ears knows about this."
The old lady was so angry that she crushed one of the cups. She looked rich and elegant, but it didn't show how noble she was.
Nanny Lin came out to smooth things over and helped the old lady sit down.
"The princess is an outsider and doesn't know anything. Our mother-in-law is a filial old lady and can't bear to watch her elderly mother work hard. She always reports good things but not bad things. We, the old lady, also want to take her back, but her mother-in-law is unwilling."
The old lady slapped her thigh and said, "That's right! I sent people to pick her up again and again, but the girl refused to come back on her own. As you can see, Princess! I love her very much."
Princess Meiyuan was indifferent and lightly scratched the lid of the tea cup, then raised her hand and threw it away, causing it to fall into pieces.
"This old tea is also used to entertain guests. The Hou family is making a lot of money every day, but now it is almost impossible to buy tea?"
She laughed as she spoke.
The old lady was arrogant and would not reply, and her face was as angry as pig liver.
Nanny Lin sighed in her heart, but her expression was still respectful.
"The princess has never tasted the insect tea from southern Yunnan. The toast from there was given to the Marquis as a birthday gift last year. This tea is a specialty there. That's how it is."
Tusi is the name given to the supreme leader of various tribes in the southwest region.
Princess Meiyuan retorted.
"The chieftain of southern Yunnan knows the difference. He doesn't send good things to the palace, but sends them all to the marquis's mansion. People in the court say that the marquis has a private treasury similar to that of the palace. I thought it was a joke."
"Now that I see it, it turns out that what I said is true."
