The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 646

On Yao Mengxian's head was a peony temple hairpin inlaid with golden silk, and a half-winged butterfly hairpin inlaid with rubies in gold was inserted in her bun. The playful butterfly hairpin made the little girl look very agile.

Dai Shi couldn't help but nodded, she was dressed festively and not shabby!I don't know where there are so many messy rumors in Beijing.

Yao Mengxian immediately lowered her head shyly, "Mrs. Shizi has been praised too much. Mrs. Shizi is the real beauty! Just now, when I saw my wife for the first time, I was dumbfounded."

Dai was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then a smile bloomed on his face, "Oh! You have a sweet mouth, no wonder Mrs. Yao hasn't come to play in the mansion recently. It turns out that there is a wonderful person who can speak well hidden in the house. , how can you still think of me who is clumsy and tongue-tied?"

Ke Shi glanced at Yao Mengxian who was bowing her head, her eyes were dark, and then said with a smile: "If you forget, no one can forget you, right? How can my girl compare to your clever mouth?"

Yao Menglian and Yao Mengdie hurried forward to have fun, but Yao Mengxian couldn't let Yao Mengxian steal the limelight.

How can you say that Yao Mengxian is also the daughter-in-law of the head of the Zhen Guo Mansion, and this is the first time she has come to the Zhen Guo Mansion, so out of emotion and reason, Mrs. Dai also wants to greet her emphatically.

But she didn't expect that Yao Mengxian was not as dull and timid as rumored outside.However, that's all other people's family affairs, and she just watched from the sidelines.

He snatched a suet jade bracelet from his arm, took Yao Mengxian's hand and put it on for her directly.

"This is for my sister to wear." Dai smiled, and then let go of Yao Mengxian's hand.

Seeing this, Yao Mengxian quickly declined, "This? This is too precious."

After finishing speaking, she turned her attention to Ke Shi. This is a greeting gift for the first time, and Yao Mengxian should not refuse it.But superficial skills still have to be done, otherwise people will say that she has shallow eyelids.

The handkerchief Yao Mengdie was holding was almost torn to pieces, the status of the prostitute of the Duke's Mansion is indeed not low.

Who told her father was only the second bedroom?It's just a doctor of the Ministry of punishment, and the official position of the fifth rank is indeed incomparable with the head of the house.

Yao Menglian's eyes also flickered. The meeting gift given to her by the wife of the Shizi before was not so heavy. It was a red gold bracelet inlaid with coral beads, which was much worse than Yao Mengxian's suet white jade.

"Just take it for you! Mrs. Shizi has a lot of dowry! It's better to empty her dowry."

Several people then chatted and laughed a few words before heading towards the main courtyard.

"Princess! The wife and the girls are almost here, Your Highness, please go out to see the ceremony." The big girl Lu Qiao urged Princess Rongjia.

Princess Rongjia touched the bun on her head, "What's the hurry? The flower viewing party is early! I went early and chatted with those wives, it's boring!"

As soon as Mama Ding entered the room, she heard the princess's words, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "My good princess, today is His Highness's flower viewing feast, and the princess should not be late to make His Highness unhappy. "

Princess Rongjia smiled lightly, and did not reply, but stood up and took two steps.

She was wearing a light purple twig flower skirt and a pleated satin skirt with dark flowers. The lavender color made Princess Rongjia's appearance as beautiful as peaches and plums.

On the head is a string of ruby ​​beads and pearl flowers, a jade leaf golden cicada hairpin is inserted on the crow's hair, a pair of purple jade hibiscus earrings are hung on the ears, and the golden flower bracelet makes the wrist more slender.

Mama Ding looked Princess Rongjia up and down, and nodded in satisfaction.

"The princess is naturally beautiful, and she looks even more dignified and beautiful when she dresses up like this today. No girl can compare to the princess."

Mother Ding looked at the beautiful princess and couldn't help but feel relieved.

"My mother would make fun of me. When it comes to beauty, the girls from the aristocratic families in our capital all have their own merits. The girl from the Duke of Zhen's mansion looks pretty good to me, and she's not inferior to me."

The princess paced to the front of the bronze mirror, staring at the tall and beautiful woman in the mirror, slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

She inherited her mother's beauty. Although she looks gorgeous, she has a luxurious temperament, which does not make people feel gaudy, but rather dignified.

Mother Ding curled her lips, "No matter how good-looking they are, they are not as honorable as the princess. What's more, the princess's appearance is very similar to His Highness. Who didn't praise His Highness's beauty back then?"

"Mom is a queen who sells melons. If outsiders listen to it, wouldn't it make people think we are frivolous?"

Mother Ding wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Princess Rongjia, "Let's go! Don't make mother really wait."

If all the guests came and she didn't show up for a long time, it would be impolite, and those aristocratic wives would whisper about her behind their backs.

Mother Ding walked behind the princess, she felt that the princess was a little strange today, and seemed to pay more attention to today's dress.

However, she didn't think too much about it, she only thought that the Princess is a big girl, and the ladies who came here today are more concerned about dressing up.

"Jinyu! You came early today!" Zhu Pang blinked at Gu Chengyu with a lewd expression.

Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes at him angrily, "These two are Bian Yunyi and Tong Qiutang from the Imperial Academy, Senior Brother Zheng, do you know each other? You are generally good scholars."

"Zhu Pang has met Lord Bian and Lord Tong." Zhu Pang was casual with Gu Chengyu, but he still observed etiquette in front of others.

"Young Master Zhu, you don't need to be too polite!"

Bian Yunyi and Tong Qiutang knew Zhu Pang from the beginning, but they only read the books of sages before, so they didn't get along with dudes like Zhu Pang.

"Master Bian, Lord Tong!" Zheng Lun also stepped forward to greet the two of them.

"Master Zheng!"

"I didn't expect four of us to come from the Hanlin Academy. What a coincidence." Zheng Lun led them to find an empty place to sit down.

It's not that there are no young officials here, but there are almost no officials above the sixth rank.

The Dayan Dynasty had a system of favors and shades. Civilian officials of the fourth rank and above, local officials of the third rank and above, and military officials of the second rank and above, all had a chance of grace.That is to send the younger generation in the family to the Imperial College for school, or to find a job.However, only one son of grace.

Therefore, for the sake of this favored quota, there are quite a few brothers fighting against each other.

Several people have different identities, and those people are unwilling to deal with these people.No way, these are all white bodies!
"The one who sent me here is the Fourth Young Master Qin, I don't know why?" Gu Chengyu asked several people.

Everyone knew that Gu Chengyu was not from the capital, even if he became an official, he would only know court officials.The fourth son of Qin is still studying, so it is naturally impossible for Gu Chengyu to recognize all the sons of the aristocratic families in Beijing.

"Cough! The fourth son of Qin is the son of the second house of the Duke of Qin's mansion, named Qin Ke." The person who answered was Bian Yunyi, who is the second son of Bian Shengrong, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites.

Bian Shengrong was originally the minister of Guanglu Temple. After Wan Xuenian's death, he was promoted to the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, which is regarded as a promotion.

Gu Chengyu knew what he meant, the second wife of the Duke of Qin's mansion was a descendant, but it was a pity that the second master of Qin had no sons, and only two daughters were born in the main room.

　Thank you book friend Qiangwei for your reward!
