Fair Lady

When they arrived at Jiyuan, those who hadn't seen the salute at the door naturally knelt down to salute again, and the fourth princess called out in time this time.

Shuyao has attended more banquets recently, and also added a lot of familiar faces, and even the three of Yunting have a few little sisters who they know and get along with each other.After the ceremony, everyone dispersed to chat and play in twos and threes.

Shuyao also doesn't stick to the three cousins, and encourages them to socialize more with others. They are so-called noble girls, and they are noble girls now, no worse than anyone else.

Of course, in the previous training on etiquette and etiquette, Mother Liu also told them about various traps and negative examples in the banquet, and now the mothers around them are all seasoned and experienced, Yunting three Although people grew up in the simple Northwest countryside, they are not ignorant now, and they also understand that people's hearts are separated from their belly, and they must always be careful to guard against other people's schemes.

However, how do outsiders think of this?They only know that these three girls were born and raised in the wilderness of the Northwest, and they are now fourteen or fifteen years old, so they probably don't even know a few words.

That's what Chen Yueying, the eighth grandmother of Ma's family in Huwei Grand General's Mansion, thought.

No one can match Chen Yueying's hatred for Shuyao, because of Shuyao, she was grounded until she got married, and even her mother was forbidden to leave the house.Unexpectedly, those people still refused to forget that she failed to provoke and made a fool of herself by playing the zither, and they were still talking about it until the day she got married.

Covered by the red hijab, she couldn't see her husband's face, and she was always uneasy before he returned to the bridal chamber.Fortunately, the husband was busy tossing about her, and he just said: "A woman who has no talent is a virtue. It doesn't matter if you can't master the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as long as you serve the good master, anyway, the Ma family doesn't need you to go out to socialize."

She later recalled that these words did not seem to please her ears, and before she had time to question her, she was warned by her father-in-law, General Ma, when she recognized her relatives and served tea the next day: "If you want to go out in the future, you must get your sister-in-law's nod. If you have nothing to do, stay in the mansion." Come on, serve Lao Ba well, and spread the branches and leaves for the Ma family."

The unenthusiastic words and the sneaky sneer from the junior next to her made her almost lose her temper on the spot.It's just that Old General Ma was too imposing, which made her bow her head after all.

I didn't expect to complain to my mother when I returned home, and my mother just sighed: "What your father-in-law taught you is that you should stay in Ma's mansion well in the future, and if anything happens, even your mother will be sent to the family temple." gone."

She really couldn't figure it out.I just played a simpler zither song, but playing zither is not as good as the fourth girl of the Li family. Is it so serious?It's embarrassing to say, Princess Yan, ah no, she is now the second concubine.Isn't it more embarrassing?It is also written in the plum blossom font, which is a mess.

Sima Yan and Chen Yueying really have a tacit understanding.Chen Yueying just mentioned her here, and she turned her head and smiled brightly, and said softly: "Aunt Eight, you haven't gone out for a long time, right? I want to have more fun today. Unexpectedly, the three cousins ​​of Princess Fuxing The sisters are all beautiful, but they are a little darker. It is a pity that they have suffered more than ten years in that barren land for nothing."

Chen Yueying was still very angry when she heard the first sentence.She felt that Sima Yan was mocking herself, but after hearing it.Thinking about it secretly, hey, it turns out that the second concubine is kindly reminding herself that the opportunity for revenge has come.

Laughing at the origins of the three of Yunting?Chen Yueying is not so stupid yet. The Yun family was originally the General's Mansion, but they were wronged for 30 years. Now the emperor has rehabilitated them, and even compensated them with a mansion, a fat farm, gold, silver and jewels. Only those who don't have brains dare to say They were country girls, from bad backgrounds.

However, it's okay to let them show their "talent". Didn't Xia Shuyao make her look ugly?She didn't dare to provoke Xia Shuyao now, but it would be a bad breath to make those three black girls of the Yun family look ugly. After all, Xia Shuyao brought them, didn't they?Hmph, it can only show that their Yun family is a big boss, and Xia Shuyao, who has half of the blood of the Yun family, is just lucky.

Sima Yan saw that Chen Yueying was thoughtful at first, and then her eyes lit up, she knew that her meaning was in place, she smiled slightly, pointed to a pot of Phalaenopsis and whispered: "What a beautiful orchid, it makes my hands itchy gone."

The girls next to her wanted to covet the second concubine, and they all jokingly said, "Who doesn't know that the second concubine is so talented, how about writing a poem?"

Sima Yan humbly smiled and said: "It can't be regarded as the word 'brilliant', but everyone gathers in this garden full of delicate and beautiful flowers, and writing poems is also a taste. If you are interested, why not write together? Whether it is yourself It’s okay to quote famous lines from ancient poems, it’s nothing more, it’s just that everyone makes fun of the situation.”

Chen Yueying immediately echoed: "Okay, okay, the second prince's concubine's idea is good. The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just to increase the interest, but it's out of the ordinary to compare them with each other. Today's scenery is so beautiful, it's better for everyone to write a poem of praise. Poetry? It doesn’t matter what kind of flower it is, as long as it’s the flower in this garden, it’s also a celebration of Mrs. Ruan and Ruan Bang’s “full flowers and full moon”, isn’t it?”

Ma Ling'er, who was standing under the tree on the other side and chatting with others, frowned when she saw Chen Yueying stand up again to "show off the limelight".Because Qi Yuexin participated in Chen Yueying's homecoming banquet, and this time she posted a post to Chen Yueying alone, her mother agreed to let her go out, and told her that she was optimistic about her, but she didn't expect that she would be dishonest again after leaving for a while.

But after listening to Chen Yueying's words, Ma Ling'er almost didn't laugh out loud. I have to say that when this person occasionally exploded, he was still a little clever and very good at talking.Although these words were suspected of justifying her previous embarrassment, there was nothing wrong with it, and she counterattacked those who laughed at her abruptly.

Well, as long as you don't embarrass the Ma family.

In the banquets and gatherings of rich families, especially when girls are together, there are often elegant things such as reciting poems and performing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and no one objects to it, or finds it abrupt.After all, going to the theater is mainly the interest of old ladies.

People with bad intentions can usually think of going together, and Qi Yuexin quickly received Chen Yueying's signal.Since Xia Shuyao was 6 years old, Mother Liu has been with her. It is not surprising that she is a bit talented, but the wild girls of the Yun family are not so lucky, right?In a barren land in the northwest, he is also an exile. He has to worry about food and clothing, so how can he take care of raising his daughter?Uh, let alone the three of them, even their mothers haven't touched pen and paper, have they?Even if you hire someone to teach after returning to Beijing, have you held your pen firmly in this short period of one month?Do you recognize thirty or forty characters?

Qi Yuexin secretly sighed that Chen Yueying did a good job, she likes to hear and hear things that can make Xia Shuyao's face dull and uncomfortable. Now let the maids prepare a table for writing poems, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, young girls and wives all have a share . (To be continued.
