Chapter 499 Weathervane

Mrs. Zhu glanced into the crowd and sneered, "There are quite a lot of guests today."

Mrs. Hu understood, supported Mrs. Zhu and walked over there.

Everyone who came to the banquet knew Qiao Yiyue's identity, and no lady was willing to talk to her. Qiao Yiyue was very upset when she was left out. Seeing Yao Shi and Su Kefang talking to Zhai Shi and others, she took the initiative to leave past.

"aunt--"

Hearing this soft and charming voice, Yao looked back, his face immediately turned cold, and without opening his mouth, he went directly to greet Zhu and Hu.

"Mrs. Hu!" Shi Yao glanced at Qiao Yiyue behind her, and asked with a half-smile: "If I remember correctly, this is Zhu's aunt, right?"

Yao Shi just revealed a fact, but this fact is a big taboo, because they have never heard that the head of the house will bring an aunt to the banquet, so when Yao Shi said this, all the wives started whispering , all looked at Hu Shi with disapproving and resentful eyes. Hu's actions obviously made these wives feel humiliated.

Mrs. Hu didn't expect Mrs. Yao to embarrass her so directly, her face was a little ugly, and she was about to speak, but Princess Qin on the side smiled without changing her expression: "Madam Xiang misunderstood, this is just a maid of the Zhu family, if If there is any irregularity, Mrs. Xiang just let it go."

Hearing this, Mrs. Hu was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't restrain the corners of her lips, while Qiao Yiyue's face turned blue and red.

Thinking of how much Yao family loved her in Fengguo Village before, but how she treats her like this today, although Qiao Yiyue knew the reason well, the huge contrast still made her angry and hated.

She regretted helping Yao's mother and son escape back then!
Princess Qin knew that what she said would not only save the face of the Zhu family, but also the Yao family would not be able to truly offend Qiao Yiyue. Who knew that Ouyang Wan, who had been watching with cold eyes and unwilling to talk to others, snorted coldly when she heard this: " Since they are ignorant servants, they should be dismissed directly, and they are even taken out, wouldn't those who were not taken out be even worse?"

Qin Wangfei didn't expect that this noble Ouyang Wanruo would be so merciless to the Zhu family. She was a little annoyed in her heart, but on the surface she smiled and said: "Mr. Hu, did you hear what the princess said? This servant who doesn't understand the rules Just send it away after going back, and the mansion should be reorganized!"

Princess Qin looked at Ouyang Wanruo with a smile after she finished speaking. Ouyang Wanruo knew that Princess Qin's words were insinuating that she stretched her hand too far, and actually intervened in Zhu's affairs, but Ouyang Wanruo still didn't put Zhu's family in In his eyes, he just looked back at Princess Qin with mocking eyes.

After listening to Qin Wangfei's words, Hu's heart was secretly refreshed, and curtsy said calmly: "Yes!"

Although I know that Qin Wangfei's words are just words, this Qiao Yiyue is Zhu Huaguang's heart, and no one can do anything to her, but this bitch was humiliated in public today, and I think she will never appear in the future with her. Ideas for a party.

Tears rolled in Qiao Yiyue's eyes, she glared at Hu Shi bitterly, and Hu Shi raised her eyes and looked back at her provocatively.

Today is finally a victory!
Su Kefang glanced at Qiao Yiyue, his eyes fell on the shawl on her body, and then turned to look at Princess Qin, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Yao Shi naturally also noticed the shawl on Qiao Yiyue's body, otherwise, as the host of the banquet, she would not lose face to Princess Qin and the Zhu family like this anyway.

If Fang'er hadn't changed the shawl again by mistake this time, they would have suffered a dark loss!

Those who attended the banquet could feel the turbulent tension between Princess Qin, Princess Chang'an, and the Yao family.

In the end, Qiao Yiyue couldn't resist the contemptuous gazes of these people, and ran out crying.

"Tsk, this girl really has no rules." Mrs. Zhai snorted coldly, without the slightest scruples about Princess Qin and Mrs. Hu.

She accidentally talked to Su Kefang about the shawl on her body just now, and she heard Su Kefang say that the gemstones and lace on it were sewn on by herself, so after seeing the shawl on Qiao Yiyue's body, she thought that the Zhu family wanted to Using a concubine's house to suppress the Xiang family, I was also annoyed in my heart, but I didn't know that there was Qin Wangfei's handwriting behind it.

When Mrs. Hu heard Mrs. Zhai's words, the smile on her lips froze, and she had to apologize with a smile on her face: "I am not strict in discipline, and I disturbed all the ladies, please forgive me."

Zhu Huaguang's position in the court is idle, but the Zhai family and others have real power in their hands. Even if the Hu family has Qin Wangfei to back them up, she still doesn't want to offend everyone, let alone the current Qin Dynasty. The princess is no longer as good as she used to be, and the protection that can be given to her is limited.

Ouyang Wanruo ignored these people's thoughts, and said to Yao Shi: "Mrs. Xiang, today I am here to tell you on behalf of the queen mother. If you are not satisfied with the residence of the Duke Huguo's mansion, just speak up. When the time comes, let someone come again." It’s going to be refurbished.”

"Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother. This mansion is already very good, and there is no need to repair it." Yao said with a moved face.

Ouyang Wanruo was the first to come today, and she said this in public, Yao shi was very clear about the Queen Mother's intentions, but when she thought of the hundreds of members of the Xiang family who died, she really couldn't thank them from the bottom of her heart.

"In that case, I will go back first." Princess Chang'an left the Duke Huguo's mansion with the maid without looking at the crowd after speaking.

The meaning of the queen mother is undoubtedly a weathervane. Once Ouyang Wanruo left, the smiles on the faces of the ladies deepened, and they warmed up to Yao Shi and Su Kefang.

Qin Wangfei originally wanted to let Su Kefang suffer in front of everyone, reminding everyone that a country girl can't fight her, who would have thought that there would be such a change, seeing everyone flattering Yao Shi and Su Kefang, Qin Wangfei I really couldn't stand it anymore, so I found an excuse and took Hu to leave first.

Looking at the mother-in-law who handled the banquet guests with ease, Su Kefang couldn't help admiring her.

Judging from the situation just now, most of the guests in this banquet were not sincere to them, but from the face of the mother-in-law, it was not clear that her attitude towards these guests was any different from that of the wives of generals of the Zhai family.

With a smile on his face, Su Kefang followed her mother-in-law and shuttled among the ladies. Seeing that everyone had friendly smiles on their faces, but they were talking side-by-side or stinging words to each other, Su Kefang felt really tired.

Looking at these smiling women, and thinking about the sincere smiles of the folks in Fengguo Village, Su Kefang finally understood why her mother-in-law didn't want to come back to Shengjing from the very beginning.

Today's banquet seems to be as simple as a group of noble ladies gathering for a meal, but Su Kefang sees many problems from it.
