Today is the birthday of the governor's wife. She is wearing a vermilion double-breasted dress. This dress is solemn and yet gorgeous. There are large areas of auspicious clouds and dark patterns embroidered with silver threads on it, which makes the governor's wife look several years younger.
Song Wan and Song Qiuse went to sit next to the governor's wife. The people sitting around them were all ladies from aristocratic families who had good friendship with the governor's wife on weekdays. Mrs. Ye was also among them. Seeing her smiling face, they didn't know the relationship between Ye Zhu and the governor's wife's niece. What happened to the marriage?
Just as I was thinking about it, the governor¡¯s wife asked from the side: ¡°Why didn¡¯t Yan Ting come with us?¡±
Song Wanwen said with a smile: "During the Chinese New Year, Your Majesty allowed him to take a leave of absence until the Lantern Festival. He has to train in the school camp recently and cannot come back. Let me congratulate his wife on his behalf and ask her not to blame him." .¡±
Song Wan's tone was modest, but it didn't look like what Gu Yanting would say. However, the governor's wife didn't pay attention and said happily: "You can't blame anyone, I don't want to be reminded that I'm another year older." , today I invite you all to come to my house to enjoy the flowers and have fun together."
As soon as he finished speaking, another voice sounded: "Mrs. Gu and Colonel Gu are newly married. They will be separated for several months. It must be very uncomfortable to be alone in an empty room, right?"
Before Song Wan could see clearly who was speaking, there was another low laugh. Mrs. Ye held the silk handkerchief and covered her face slightly, and said with a hint of words: "Although Mrs. Gu and Colonel Gu just held a wedding, this spring I¡¯ve already tasted the joy, so why can¡¯t I endure it for just a few months?¡±
Song Qiuse is the only one here who is not married yet, but everyone knows that she is not ignorant of people's affairs, so she has no worries about what she says.
Song Qiuse didn¡¯t rush to refute, and snorted coldly.
This sound was full of ridicule, and the ladies felt a prick in their hearts. After a while, Mrs. Ye couldn't calm down, looked at Song Qiuse and asked, "Why are you laughing?"
¡°It¡¯s nothing, I just suddenly thought of a joke I heard a few days ago.¡±
Song Qiuse¡¯s lips were raised, and her face was full of sarcasm. She was not laughing because of a joke, but she was clearly provoking the people present.
Mrs. Ye frowned and asked in a more serious tone: "What kind of joke is it? Tell us and let us hear it. Don't tell half of it and keep half of it."
Since Mrs. Ye had made such a request, Song Qiuse was not ambiguous and said quietly: "I heard that men will become increasingly incompetent after thirty and lose interest in things in the house. Many women are not satisfied. I would pay attention to those young women who have just gotten married, and look for some spring joy to fill my empty and lonely life. I thought it was nonsense, but I didn't expect it to be true."
Song Qiuse laughed again after speaking. This time she didn't stop laughing for a moment, but couldn't stop laughing at all. Even the people who were talking a little further away were attracted by her laughter and looked over.
Mrs. Ye, who asked Song Qiuse the question, had a completely darkened face at this moment. She never expected that she would actually come to Song Qiuse's door to confront her.
The face of the lady from the aristocratic family who spoke first was not much better. She gritted her teeth and scolded: "Miss Song, you haven't left the cabinet yet. It would be too rude to say such a thing."
Song Qiuse didn't realize that she was wrong. She raised her eyebrows at the lady and asked in an innocent tone: "Mrs. Ye asked me to tell the joke I heard to make everyone happy. I said it. Why is the madam so angry?" , could it be that what I just said hit a sore spot? But what I just laughed at were those gossipy women who sit around and gossip behind their backs all day long, not Mrs. Joke." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
