After the daily greetings, Miss Cao Er slightly looked sideways, looked at Dong Nuan who was following Gou Qingyun, and asked softly: "Is this Miss Dong?"
"Well, yes." Gou Qingyun said without enthusiasm, this is Nuannuan, my good friend or something like that.
Hearing her answer, Miss Cao Er nodded politely towards Dong Nuan without saying anything else.
There was only alienation between the other party's brows and eyes, but no contempt or disdain.
Compared with Dong Zining, who started to look at people with her nostrils before she was good enough, Miss Cao Er's demeanor can indeed give people a comfortable feeling.
But thinking about it, according to Gou Qingyun, Ms. Cao Er's family has quite a lot of background, and her family's connections in the capital are also intricate, so she thought it would be good to have her tutored in etiquette.
You won't be like Dong Zining, who will look down on this or that just after gaining a little power.
Those who are truly powerful do not need to look down upon or belittle them. They only need to use their aura to tell you the differences between classes. Others will naturally understand when they feel it.
People who understand will naturally keep their distance and stay safe.
People who don't understand can't blame them if they end up with a bloody head.
Dong Nuan was like a background board throughout the whole process, following Gou Qingyun, and Gou Qingyun did not ignore her. After the group sat down, they also sat down with Dong Nuan.
Miss Cao Er obviously didn't care, she just asked lightly about the soap.
Gou Qingyun has already given it in advance, of course it is an upgraded version. The other party has used it and feels good about it, so he is here to show his appreciation today.
The magistrate's daughter had already come, and after hearing the news, the others had no choice but to squeeze in with all their strength.
At this time, Miss Cao Er's carriage was parked in front of Pinxiang Pavilion, and the maids were carrying things in front. She did not need to personally come forward for such a small matter. At this time, she only needed to sip tea, enjoy the time, and wait.
Miss Cao Er didn't stay here for long. After all, she still needed to go back to Fucheng. The distance was not short and time was tight. She couldn't go back after dark, it wouldn't look good.
So, after sitting for a while and listening to the maid saying that she had made her choice, she stood up and left.
Gou Qingyun stayed a little, of course out of politeness.
Both of them knew very well that Miss Cao Er would not stay, but the words that should be said and the meaning that should be expressed still needed to be in place.
After Miss Cao declined politely, she stood up and said goodbye. Dong Nuan accompanied Gou Qingyun and her mother to get them into the carriage. After watching the carriage go away, they returned to the backyard again.
"Huh... the second girl's aura is too strong!" The first time she returned to the backyard, Gou Qingyun breathed a long sigh of relief, took the tea bowl, took a small sip, and sighed softly.
It was obvious that Miss Cao Er was a little nervous when she was getting along with her.
The county magistrate's wife looked on and wanted to laugh, but in the end she held it back and comforted her softly: "It will be fine when you reach her age."
Gou Qingyun is now young and her behavior is already very structured. From Dong Nuan's point of view, if she grows up for another two years, she will become an enviable and qualified noblewoman.
After hearing her mother's comfort and encouragement, Gou Qingyun was still a little embarrassed, the tips of her ears turned red, and she quietly changed the subject: "By the way, I heard that the second girl has decided to get married to the son of the prefect of Dingzhou?"
"Well, it's scheduled for the end of the year, but Liangzhou is a bit far from Dingzhou. If you want to catch up with the wedding date, the second girl will probably have to leave half a month in advance." Regarding this matter, the county magistrate's wife thought for a while and spoke softly.
As she spoke, she was glad in her heart that she didn't get carried away and set her daughter's marriage to an irrelevant position for the sake of profit.
Gou Qingyun's fiancé lives in the capital. Even if his family background is not obvious, their family is just an ordinary family. At least in the capital full of powerful people, they are just marginalized people.
Therefore, the county magistrate’s wife thinks it’s good for a small person to look for a small person.
When the county magistrate achieves political success, and their family returns to the capital, it will be as if Gou Qingyun is marrying at their doorstep. If anything happens, they can just come back and say it, so as not to be bullied.
Like Miss Cao Er...
The county magistrate's wife simply couldn't imagine how she could go back and complain after she was wronged. Her parents' family was so far away.
A letter arrived and it won't arrive for more than a month.
I don’t know how many things will happen in the process.
But that's a family matter, and the county magistrate's wife can't say anything about it.
"Dingzhou is so far away, and I heard it's very cold in the northwest." Gou Qingyun muttered a few words, then changed the subject, not wanting to say anything more.
Today's sales are good, and both Gou Qingyun and the county magistrate's wife are smiling.
The harvest was fruitful, and the county magistrate's wife became generous. Not only did she let Gou Qingyun go back to Zhuangzi with Dong Nuan, she also opened her own small treasury and took out two pieces of Yunxiang yarn and one piece of floating brocade to give to Dong Nuan.
This is a generous move. After all, these two kinds of fabrics are commonly used by the nobles in the capital. I don't know about it in the capital city, but they are not commonly seen in the county town.
Even among Gou Qingyun's daily clothes, there are only two new clothes for going out, and one of them is made of shiny brocade material.
At first Gou Qingyun was not sure what the county magistrate's wife had given her.
After the two little girls got on Dongnuan's carriage, they quietly opened the box, and then Gou Qingyun shouted out regardless of the image: "Mother, mother, it's so glorious!"
Gou Qingyun only has one piece of this kind of material, which shows that the material is really valuable.
Yunxiang is not as good as Fuguang Brocade, but it is also a good gauze material. It is a material commonly used by the ladies of the capital in summer.
Some silk blouses and the like are made of this kind of yarn. Because of its good breathability and comfortable texture, it is very popular among noble ladies.
The county magistrate's wife's move not only indirectly thanked Dong Nuan for her help, but also meant to win over Dong Nuan.
After all, Dong Nuan revealed the rose water thing again today.
Gou Qingyun also understood in her heart, so after two grandiose calls, she closed the box again and whispered: "Nuan Nuan, don't feel pressured. What's yours is yours, and no one can take it away."
Dong Nuan and Gou Qingyun were honest most of the time, and they had a good relationship with each other, and they didn't worry too much about some small calculations.
Therefore, regarding rose water, Dong Nuan also told the truth: "Rose water is precious. I think it is difficult for the two of us to protect it, so..."
There was no need to say the next words, Gou Qingyun immediately patted her head and continued: "So, I want to give it to Miss Cao Er to attract the other party's attention. She is the daughter of the magistrate. As long as she is still in Liangzhou Mansion, no one can surpass her status.
You are presumptuous, so if you can get her support, the rose water business will be easier to do."
The little girl spoke frankly, and Dong Nuan didn't hide anything. He smiled and touched her head and said: "Yes, we need a stronger backer. The only one we can think of and win over now is the second girl.
