Zhang Yun's ancient life

After hearing He Zhen's words, Guan Jing said: "It's not that you don't know Guan Rong's temper. She has been like that since she was a child. Aren't we all used to it? What are you fussing about with her?"

He Zhen heard the words and said: "I just don't like her current appearance. If you want to put on airs, don't come in front of me. I don't ask her for anything. Why should you point your chin at me, let alone her husband is now He is still just a Juren, even if it is a matter of eighth or ninth rank, if Xu Juren really becomes a Jinshi in high school in the future, it will only be a seventh or eighth rank, and that is still a matter of the future Now, she has nothing to be proud of now, brother Zhang Yun is now the seventh rank, brother Jing, you haven't changed, are you still the same as before?"

Guan Jing heard the words and said: "That's different. Brother Yun is a military officer. Xu Juren will be a civil servant in the future. Civilian and military officials cannot be compared."

What Guan Jing said is true. There is an old saying in China that it is better to be in charge of the county magistrate. For the common people, the military officer is a very far away thing from them. Guanjue, that is, to show respect, there will be no other ideas.

For example, if someone introduces you that this is a captain and company commander, how would you react?Most people are, oh, this is the company commander, he has been admired for a long time, he is really young and promising.Implicit is just like this, I don’t think there is anything, don’t I, the life of the army is too far away from us.

But if someone introduced to you that this is a certain bureau, a certain section chief of a certain department, how would you react?Anyway, I will become very polite, even if I don't deliberately flatter, I definitely don't want to offend (is this considered dogleg????).

But He Zhen still felt unbalanced in her heart. She had never been wronged like this since she was a child, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. She sat there with a sullen face, took out the soles of Guan Jing's shoes, and used them The awl poked hard.

Guan Jing knew at a glance that she was still upset, so she said: "Look at your pouty mouth, you can hang an oil bottle, put it away quickly, this is in my house, if someone else sees it, I thought you had a bad temper, if you don't get married in the future, aunt will blame me."

He Zhen couldn't laugh or cry when she heard the words, and returned with a sullen face: "You haven't seen Guan Rong's appearance today, but the second uncle's house is still in Xiaoli, and she kicked the door all over the place. The second uncle's family didn't dare to recognize her when they saw her, they thought it was Hua Dan from some theater who ran out."

Hearing He Zhen's description, Guan Jing thought of Guan Rong's red and purple appearance in her mind, and immediately smiled crookedly onto the kang.

He Zhen looked at Guan Jing, who was laughing until she couldn't straighten her waist, and said: "Brother Jing, don't laugh, this is not the most excessive, what is excessive is what she said, why am I different now, you can't take it anymore She looked at me with old eyes. What happened to our family, who invited me to the banquet today? The hairpin on her head was given by the lady, and the bracelet on her hand was It was given by the wife of that family. Brother Jing, I’m not the one who picks things up. It’s been less than half a year since my grandma passed away. Even if she’s a married granddaughter, she doesn’t have to keep her filial piety, and she can’t go around wearing gold and silver , when people saw it, they thought it was because the Guan family’s tutoring was not good, and the girls they taught were all of this kind of virtue, if my mother found out, she would have to take it easy.”

The Guan family stopped laughing when they heard the words. He also felt that Guan Rong was a bit too much. Even a little girl like He Zhen would have such thoughts when she saw it, let alone others. The Guan family still has many cousins. They are not married, if such a reputation spreads, those younger sisters will be miserable.

So he quickly asked: "Did a lot of people see it? Is there anyone talking outside?"

He Zhen thought for a while and said, "I've been at your house for the past few days, and I haven't gone out. I don't know much about the outside world."

Guan Jing heard the words and said: "Forget it, this is not something we can manage. If someone really said something, the patriarch and the others will not sit idly by."

Then Guan Jing asked as if thinking of something: "By the way, after talking for a long time, you still haven't told me what Guan Rong is going to do when she comes back. I don't believe that she just went back to her mother's house to have a look."

He Zhen snorted lightly and said, "Don't say it's you, I don't believe she has such a good heart, what else can she do when she comes back this time, isn't it because their family's scholar won the Juren?" Well, their family wants to invite their relatives and friends to have a meal. She came back to send invitations to the second uncle’s house. Didn’t I just bump into it this time? She gave me the invitation from your family. I'll bring it back for you."

While talking about He Zhen, she took out an invitation card from her bosom, and threw it on the kang.

Guan Jing walked over, opened the invitation, and said as she read it: "I heard about their family's treat in the morning. Guan Rong went to my mother's house a few days ago and said it was a treat at home. I'm too busy, so I want my mother to help me."

He Zhen immediately widened her eyes and said: "She really has the face to say, when I was at the second uncle's house, she also asked me to come over and help the cook. I didn't agree, so the eldest aunt would agree to her?"

Guan Jing heard the words and replied: "How come, it's too late to hide from her, how could she lean on it by herself, isn't that asking for guilt, my mother excused that the child in the family was too young, and no one looked at it and pushed it away. "

After He Zhen heard the words, she felt relieved and said: "My aunt is pretty good, she can be dismissed, but sister-in-law Wei will be miserable. She is my own sister-in-law, and I can't hide from her."

After finishing speaking, He Zhen went to the kang without any image, took the invitation in Guan Jing's hand, read it and said: "I thought their family would treat guests in a restaurant, but I didn't expect it to be At home, their yard is not big and there are few rooms, so if they invite so many people, will they be unable to entertain them?"

After hearing the words, Guan Jing replied: "This is not a problem. People have already thought about it. Their family divided the time of treating guests into three days. On the first day, they invited rich and powerful families in the county and town. Juren’s classmates and friends and some students who are studying, on the second day, they invited relatives and friends from the Xu family, and on the last day, they invited these outsiders.”

When He Zhen heard this, she sat up suddenly, and exclaimed: "What???? Their family is too much, brother Jing, how do you know?"

Guan Jing sneered and said: "You haven't been out of the house for a few days, so I don't know. The Xu family's treat this time has already spread outside, and I don't know how many people are watching the joke behind their backs." .”

"Damn it, a bunch of bastards, I'm not going, brother Jing, you don't want to go, why do you want to come to receive the supercilious look from their family?" He Zhen was obviously impatient, she usually pays special attention to her ladylike image , This time, he actually burst into foul language.

Guan Jing blinked her eyes and decisively pretended not to hear, so as not to kill the little girl after she realized it. He didn't seem to see He Zhen's panic, and said calmly: "I don't owe them anything. Yes, I'm also afraid of their family, why don't you go."

He Zhen asked Guan Jing, who had no change in facial expression: "Brother Jing, aren't you angry with their family for doing this?"

Guan Jing heard the words and said: "There is nothing to be angry about. If Guan Rong came up with this idea, then she would offend everyone in her mother's family at once. It may be nothing now, but she will suffer in the future. If this idea was not her idea, but the Xu family's idea, it means that the Xu family doesn't take her seriously at all, and they don't even want to give her any face. What else should I be angry about? Just wait and watch the show."

He Zhen stared at Guan Jing in a daze when she heard the words, she always felt that the Guan Jing now was a bit different from the Guan Jing she had seen before, but she couldn't tell what was different there, so she was stunned for a while before saying: "Elder Brother Jing thought everything through, so I'll go to their house to watch a play in a few days."

Two days before Xu’s family dinner, according to people who have been there, it was a disaster. There were not enough cooks, and there were not enough helpers in the kitchen. No one served the dishes, no one refilled the tea, and a bunch of guests sat in the seats. You can’t blame other people for blowing the cool breeze, because even the old lady who was supposed to sit and entertain guests cooks with them, and it’s still the same. What can you say, then sit there and blow the cool breeze Bar.

Such a situation cannot be entirely due to the Xu family, at least their Xu family thinks so. They are not settled households in the town. The Xu family was brought over from another town. In that town, there were only a dozen Xu family members in Qingshi Town, so of course they couldn't keep busy.

Originally, some people were also invited to come to help, but their family paid little wages, and no one was willing to come, and those who were willing to come were those who were usually inflexible, unhappy in work, and couldn't find work for a while.

Even if these people came here, they were just dawdling, they didn't do much business, and they caused a lot of trouble. No one is coming, not even his brother.

Xu Juren was very angry at the loss of such a big person. After he sent the guests away, he lost his temper at Guan Rong when he returned to the house. Mrs. Xu even asked Guan Rong to kneel in the yard Introspect.

I heard that when the Xu family had a treat the next day, Guan Rong's face was blue when she came out. I think she learned the rules well last night.
