Fair Lady

The screen was opened, and looking at Nangong Miao, who was standing there with a graceful posture and a calm face, everyone was amazed at her beauty, but at the same time they became more and more sure of the girl's innocence.Her eyes are clear and pure, her expression is noble and natural, how can a person with a ghost in his heart do this?Nangong Miao is only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

Seeing Nangong Miao like this, Nangong Ying and Liu Tao were a little scared. Why isn't she scared at all?Nangong Ying clenched her fists, what's wrong?Things are real and not fake.

Nangong Yi glanced at Liu Tao contemptuously, and didn't even bother to look at him: "Isn't there a so-called evidence? Why don't you show it? There are so many people here who can testify for you." The tone was full It's all sarcasm.

Liu Tao is a person with extreme conceit and low self-esteem in his heart. He usually lacks confidence when facing the Nangong family, but now he is holding a "reliance" in his hand, and being ridiculed by Nangong Yi in such a public way, he is really annoyed that "the second uncle in the future" treats him so well. His disrespect made him straighten up suddenly, and he took out a dark green purse from his sleeve pocket. There was a bunch of bamboo embroidered on the purse, but nothing else.

Patriarch Nangong wondered, "That's all? How do you prove that Miao'er gave it to you?"

Nangong Ying answered first: "The fabric of this purse is the new flow yarn brocade produced by Nangong Cloth. Only fifteen pieces were produced, three pieces each of red, pink purple, dark green, deep blue, and sky blue. For the eldest sister. My father clearly ordered that in August next year, that is, one year after the eldest sister got married, the flow of silk brocade can only be produced and sold in large quantities. So now there is no way to buy the flow of silk brocade outside, let alone outside. Even in Nangong Mansion, there is no Only the eldest sister's yard has this precious quicksand brocade.

Everyone was shaken, since this is the case, then this purse should really be given to Liu Tao by Nan Gongmiao.

Seeing the changes in everyone's expressions, Nangong Ying and Liu Tao became more and more proud. Liu Tao even gave Nangong Yi a meaningful look, but Nangong Yi stared back fiercely, shrinking his neck unwillingly.

Tang Sitong's heart was as uncomfortable as being pricked by a needle. How could his fiancée make purses for other men with the fabric used for marriage?According to the intention of the father-in-law.That should be unique.He also glared at Liu Tao fiercely, how could such an ordinary and poor man be better than himself?Why can Nangong Miao disregard "female virtue" and disregard face?

At this moment, the red sleeve next to Nangong Miao came over with a puzzled expression and looked at the purse in Master Nangong's hand: "Huh? Second Miss, you stole this purse just to give it to your cousin?"

Steal?Nangong Ying stole this purse?Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to Nangong Ying again.

Nangong Ying blushed, straightened her neck and scolded: "You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about? Which eye of yours saw me stealing it? Do you think you can get rid of the elder sister by biting like this? If this purse is not the elder sister I sent it out by myself. It was stolen by someone. Why didn’t you find it? If this purse was not for my cousin, but for brother Sitong, isn’t it very important? If you lose it, you can keep silent Is it okay to say it loudly?

Many of the guests began to nod, not to mention it was a wedding gift for the fiancée, even ordinary embroidery should not be lost casually.The ladies' female celebrity, calligraphy, painting and poetry are all things that cannot be lost outside.

Everyone looked at Hongxiu again, waiting for her answer.Not only was there no panic or anger on Hongxiu's face.On the contrary, it was a little funny, and this look made everyone even more curious.

Patriarch Nangong asked: "Did you see the second girl take it with your own eyes? Can anyone prove it?"

Hongxiu immediately replied: "Yes, the Anping County Lord can prove it."

Everyone was in an uproar, and after a while, the Anping county lord and two maidservants came out from behind a tree in the distance, bowed to the elders here, and one of the maidservants walked over quickly.Yingying bowed: "Master Nangong, although our county master didn't see the second girl take this purse with his own eyes, but the three of us, master and servant, heard that the second girl stole a purse from the eldest girl's room."

Duke Zhong's son wondered, "Hear that? How do you say it?"

The servant girl continued: "That day our county master came to ask Miss Nangong about rose flowers, and later the eldest girl took the county master to see the flower shed in your mansion. When we came back, we met the second girl of Nangong at the door He left in a hurry, and said that the eldest girl would not bother her if she had guests. After we entered the house, the girl in red in the back room came out, and suddenly exclaimed: "Sorry Hongxiu, your purse was taken away by the second girl, I I just saw her watching, but I didn’t pay attention to it, so I went back to the back room to tidy up. I didn’t want her to steal even a purse, so I went to chase it back.’ At that time, Hongxiu stopped Hongyi and asked Hongyi to check Check to see if the eldest girl has lost any of her embroidery, if not, forget it, it's just a purse, she will embroider another one."

The others were a little dizzy, and Duke Zhong understood it first: "You mean this purse belongs to Hongxiu? It's not Miss Nangong's."

Hongxiu replied: "Exactly. Madam pointed out the marriage for the servant. It was A Zeng, the second steward of a seafood shop that was going to be used as a dowry shop. The girl gave the servant a piece of azure flowing gauze brocade. Said that the other two horses were reserved for Hongyi and Hongqiao when they got married. The servant girl made a robe, a jacket for A Zeng, and a skirt for herself, and the rest of the fabric was used for A Zeng to make purses, Handkerchiefs and other little things.

Because Ah Zeng will soon be promoted to be in charge, and he will have more contact with outsiders in the future. The servants imitated the elegance of the masters and embroidered pine, plum, bamboo, and chrysanthemum on the four purses. The second girl took away the servants' embroidery. The last of the bamboo.

In these years, the second girl took away so many beaded jewelry from the girl. When did she not have various reasons?If the second girl knew that the eldest girl gave a piece of azure flowing gauze brocade to the servant girl, she didn't know what to do, maybe she would force the girl to give her a piece of red flow gauze brocade, so the servant girl didn't let the red dress go. I went to chase after it, and embroidered another one. "

Nangong Ying lost her composure, and interrupted and shouted: "Nonsense, this purse is obviously in Nangong Miao's embroidery basket." After shouting, she realized something was wrong, and quickly covered her mouth.

"..." There was silence all around, Liu Tao wished he could rush up and strangle the stupid Nangong Ying to death.

Nan Gongying quickly bit the bullet and argued: "I mean, I saw this purse in the elder sister's embroidery basket. So when my cousin took out this purse yesterday, I knew it belonged to the eldest sister. There are many of you, Anping County The Lord is a friend of Eldest Sister, so you can say whatever you want. Who would believe that Eldest Sister gave you a slave for something as precious as Liusha brocade? Anyway, I don’t believe it.”

Nangong Yuzhen frowned: "Hongxiu, Hongyi, Hongqiao, and Hongling who married into Zhuangzi last year are the big maids who have served Miao'er since she was a child. Who in the house does not know that Miaoer treats the four of them always Just being affectionate and generous? Not to mention a piece of brocade, when Hong Ling got married last year, the girl gave her a prosperous shop. This is what everyone has seen, and there are also jewelry and bank notes that no one has seen. Woolen cloth."

Everyone secretly tsk tsk, the Nangong family is really rich!A servant girl next to Miss Nangong has a dowry that is higher than that of other ladies from small families.

Nangong Ying can only refuse to admit it now: "Empty words have no proof, how do you prove that this purse is yours, and you embroidered it? Is there a name written on it?"

Not to mention Master Nangong and the others frowned.Even all the guests thought it was funny, the Second Miss Nangong was cheating, how could she write her name on her purse?Even if Hongxiu is just a maid, she can't embroider or write her own name on the purse for her fiancée-in-law, right?

Master Nangong was about to speak, but Hongxiu smiled: "Second girl, this purse really has a name on it. Not only the servant's name, but also A Zeng's name."

How can it be?Liu Tao almost asked out loud.He didn't know how many times he looked at that purse.I hold it in my hand when I sleep at night, how can there be any words on it?

Master Nangong, the patriarch, Marquis Weiyuan and others sitting next to him also looked at the purse curiously, but they didn't see any words.

Hongxiu wanted to pass the purse, so he pulled out a thin hairpin on his head, and carefully picked apart the embroidery thread on the side of the bamboo root on the purse. Soon, a clan elder closest to Hongxiu announced loudly: "It's a word for 'sleeve'. .”

Hongxiu didn't stop.I changed the position again and continued to pick at the top of the bamboo.Then he handed the purse to the patriarch, and the patriarch said loudly, "It's a word 'Zeng'."

Hongxiu explained loudly: "Three years ago, Miss Shuyao gave the girl a handkerchief that she embroidered by herself. The one she embroidered was the little boy named Baihu. When Mama Ke came back with something, she told the girl about the secret in embroidery that Miss Xia said. , There are two layers of embroidery at the starting point of the white tiger embroidery, and the hidden layer inside is a word "good". Miss Xia also taught this interesting embroidery method in the letter to the girl. We think it is very interesting. From then on, the servant girl Embroidery likes to embroider my name or other marks at the start and end of the needle.”

Nangong Ying couldn't care about anything else, she rushed over and snatched the purse for a look, then limp on the ground, her face was pale and she muttered, "How is it possible? How is it possible?"

Liu Tao backed away quietly... suddenly fell to his knees with an "ah" sound, and touched the hollow of the back knee of his right leg in pain.Not far away, Shuwen, Xiao Wu, and Zhong Jiayi pointed at him and laughed.

Shuwen let out a "hum": "Framed my sister Miao, and still want to sneak away? How can it be so cheap?"

Xiao Wu looked at Shuwen adoringly and said: "This is good, this is good, I want to learn this, just use this kind of shameless person as a target."

Nangong Yi gave Shuwen a thumbs up: "Wen'er is doing well!" Then he ordered the servants beside him: "Take two people, tie up this servant and send them to Liu's house, and warn them that Nangong Mansion will not do anything in the future." Anyone from the Liu family is welcome."

"Hahahaha," deafening laughter came suddenly, from far to near, and then a white shadow flashed past, so fast that people had no time to react, the figure had already rolled up in front of Nangong Miao, "Nangong Second Miss, thank you Otherwise, I have no chance to find your sister-in-law. Nangong Renhao, someone will tell you what to exchange for your precious daughter" (to be continued.
