Chapter 203 The tricks in the bag: Seeing Sakura for the first time (7)
In this life, Ning Yue actually came to Guo’s house once, the time she fell into the water and was taken back by Princess Fuyuan to change her clothes. However, she entered the princess’ mansion from the south gate, while the main entrance of Guo’s mansion was on the north gate.
As said in the post, Mrs. Guo did not invite too many people, and there were no extra carriages at the door.
Baozhu opened the curtain and helped the old lady get out of the carriage. Soon, Ning Yue, Ning Xi and Ning Wan also walked down with the help of their maidservants.
At the moment, a mother wearing an emerald green gown came up to her with a smile: "Old lady, long time no see! How are you? Do you still remember the servant girl?"
The old lady looked at it for a long time before suddenly realizing: "Mother Cui? Aren't you working at Cheng's house? Why did you come to Guo's house?"
"People go to high places, water flows to low places!" Mother Cui said with a smile.
Being able to meet acquaintances at the door, the old lady's strangeness to the Guo family was instantly reduced by half, and she smiled and introduced several granddaughters to Cui's mother. Cui's mother watched, smiling from ear to ear: "They are all beautiful!"
Ning Yue and Ning Xi were not treated extra because of their relationship with the palace.
This is the style of a top family. With your eldest son and concubine, you are just like ordinary people here.
The old lady gave the gift to Mama Cui, and Mama Cui ordered the maids to carry it, and she took the old lady's hand and entered the house affectionately.
Guo’s house is a standard Jiangnan style, with stacked stones and water everywhere, and staggered buildings. It is said that it is because Mrs. Guo once settled in Jiangnan. Mrs. Guo is the daughter of the former royal family with a very strong personality. Mrs. Guo contributed a lot to the success of the Guo family among the four major families. She had one son and two daughters in her life, the eldest son Guo Kuang, the eldest daughter Zhongshan Princess, and the second daughter Guo Shufei (imperial concubine).
Guo Kuang served as Minister of Criminal Justice. He was a clean and honest man with a vicious vision and was very good at solving cases. There has been a saying in the market: There may be cases that Guo Kuang cannot solve, but there must be no cases where Guo Kuang was wrongly judged. It can be seen that Guo Kuang is a very careful and rigorous person. In the previous life, Sikong Shuo tried every means to bribe Guo Kuang, but Guo Kuang was unmoved. Later, Sikong Shuo had no choice but to kill him.
In this life, Sikong Shuo boarded the boat of the Jia family by accident. He wondered if he could change the position of the Guo family through the Jia family's movement. Ning Yue thought, it's best not to.
Guo Kuang and Mrs. Guo had two sons, Guo Zhongxun became Princess Fuyuan's son-in-law, and Guo Zhongjie was not married yet.
While chatting and laughing, a group of people came to Shouxiangju. In the Ma family, when the masters are not watching, the maids and women are messy, doing what they like, but the Guo family is different, from the mother in charge to the cleaning maids, everyone is in order.
The big guys bowed to the old lady and others, and when the guests entered the upper room, they went to do their own things.
Several people entered the room, and the moment Mama Cui opened the curtain, Mrs. Guo’s laughter came from inside. I don’t know what I heard, but I laughed like this.
"Old Madam, Mrs. Ma is here!" Mother Cui smiled and opened the curtain, asking the old lady to wait for someone to enter.
Old Madam Guo hurriedly wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said angrily, "You motherfucker! You don't let me know in advance when you have a distinguished guest! Sincerely watch me make a fool of myself!"
Everyone in the room laughed.
Mrs. Guo was so approachable, the Ma sisters' restraint dissipated a lot, and the old lady led them to kowtow to the birthday stars one by one. When it was Ning Yue's turn to kowtow, Mrs. Guo hurriedly said, "Hey, you need to kowtow twice more! That kid never kowtows to me, you give me his share!"
Ning Yue kowtowed twice more obediently, and Mrs. Guo laughed again.
