Linglong

Chapter 34

Su Shengchun was secretly sad with her head down and red eyes, but when Linglong spoke, she raised her head in shock, and she saw Linglong's composure and contempt, the anger of the girl in yellow and the fact that she wanted to explode but didn't dare.

"Cousin, you are amazing!" Su Shengchun excitedly grabbed Linglong's hand.

She originally admired the girl in yellow clothes very much, but after receiving that sneer, all her enthusiasm disappeared. Now seeing Linglong venting her anger for herself, the girl in yellow clothes held back her anger and left, how could she not Excited?She was still a child.

Linglong giggled, "Where, where, my cousin won the prize." Holding Su Shengchun's hand, "Cousin, let's go in."

Su Shengchun was a little uneasy, "Cousin, these must be guests of your uncle's house. Is it not good for us to offend someone?" He was worried that he came to Qiao's Lane as a guest, and if he caused trouble for Qiao's house, That would be too embarrassing.

Jingjia has always been very reserved, not very talkative, Jingxi pondered the situation, and said slowly: "What my cousin said makes sense. It is better for the third younger sister to endure the momentary anger. If you offend important guests, the Qiao family's aunt and aunt Isn't it difficult to be a human being." The words are very grand.

Qiao Shi has a good temper and has always been loose. Although she came out with a few little girls, she didn't want to restrain them.But she smiled when she heard what Jingxi said, and said: "Axi is too worried. Long'er's aunt and aunt love Long'er more than me, so I won't blame her, don't worry." Gentle glanced at Linglong , eyes full of doting.

Jingxi almost couldn't breathe.

Go home and tell your grandmother and mother about this matter. If you want to go out next time, you must not let your aunt take the girls out alone!She is too spoiled Linglong, listen to what she said, is it okay for Linglong to be naughty no matter how she is?This time I offended a family member of a wealthy family, what about next time?It's too late to regret it when something bad happens.

The education Jingxi received was to be filial to the elders and listen to what the elders said. Although she strongly disagreed with Qiao's words, she could only agree in a low voice, "Yes, auntie."

A group of people walked into the gate, and Qiao Sirou came out with a dozen or so beautifully embroidered maids, "Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Wu, they are negligent and negligent, and they are not welcome." It turns out that this group of people is Zhenyuanhou The female family members of the mansion, the two gentle and polite middle-aged ladies just now are Wen Shi, wife of the eldest son of Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, and Wu Shi, wife of the second son Hu Ke.Although the two sisters-in-law were surnamed Wen and Wu, they were actually very humble and elegant. They greeted Qiao Sirou with a smile, politeness and affection, obviously they were acquainted with each other before.

Wen's and Wu's daughters-in-law and daughters all saluted Qiao Sirou, Qiao Sirou smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, get up quickly." Zhan Yan looked at it and said with a smile: "The six young wives and two young ladies of your mansion, I I've seen them all before, and now I see two more unfamiliar faces, which family's relatives are they? I don't know what to call them?"

Among the female family members of the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, the first young lady Lan, the second young lady Qin, the third young lady Lu, the fourth young lady Zhang, the fifth young lady Liu, the sixth young lady Zhao, the fourth young lady Hu Shaofen, and the fifth young lady Hu Shaolian. Qiao Sirou has a friendly face even if she is not familiar with them, only a girl in yellow clothes and a girl in pink shirt, Qiao Sirou has never seen them before, so she can't help but find it strange.

Mrs. Wen is middle-aged and looks rich and fair. She smiled gently, "The one in the yellow shirt is my second daughter-in-law's natal sister, the fifth girl of the Qin family; the one in the pink shirt is The cousin of the sixth daughter-in-law, a girl from the ancestral family. These two children have always yearned for the scenery of the northern country, knowing that we are going to move to Shuntian Mansion, so they come to experience the local customs and customs." He beckoned to the two of them and ordered them to meet Qiao Sirou.

It turned out that the two faces were indeed relatives, one was the younger sister of the second young lady of the Hu family, Qin Shi, and the other was the cousin of the sixth young lady's aunt's family, Miss Zu.Qiao Sirou smiled and nodded, "So it's Miss Qin and Miss Zu, both of them are good, and they are outstanding talents." She praised a few words.

Mrs. Wen said: "Just now when I entered the door, I happened to meet another family of guests. A lady brought four little girls. That lady was so beautiful that I was stunned. There was a little girl beside her and Her appearance is somewhat similar, smart and cute, attractive..."

Qiao Sirou frowned, "You said this must be my little sister and her precious little girl, there is no second family!" Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wu's sister-in-law both laughed: "Really? That's really true. Coincidentally, Lingmei and Ling's niece are outstanding in talent and appearance, which is rare even in the capital." Qiao Sirou was very pleased with what she heard.

At this time Qiao Shi also brought Linglong and others to the front, Qiao Sirou introduced Wen Shi, Wu Shi and Qiao Shi to each other, smiled and pulled Linglong over, "Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Wu, this is my little sister's beloved daughter Now, your name is Linglong." Linglong smiled and said hello, the spring is just right now, the weather is bright, and under the sun, Linglong's skin is even more beautiful than snow, and her little face seems translucent, so cute and cute, Wen Shi likes it so much, so pull her over After looking up and down for a long time, he smiled and said to Qiao Sirou: "If you say something that offends you, don't be angry. Your niece is very good. Compared with you and your sister, she is slightly better than you. Green is better than blue " Qiao Sirou couldn't help being happy, "If my little sister and I were more capable, I would be ten feet away from her; if we were more beautiful, I would have been hiding as far away as possible. I still have this self-knowledge. I You can't even compare to a little girl, how dare you think about this kid like Long'er?" A series of crisp words were spoken, and everyone covered their mouths and laughed.

Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wu came to Qiao's Lane as guests, and of course they caught the girl from Qiao's family and praised her.There is only one Qiao Zhijun in the Qiao family, and they are not with Qiao Sirou at the moment, so of course they will spare no effort to praise Linglong, this is human nature.

Linglong became the center of attention.

Su Shengchun looked at Linglong from the side, feeling extremely envious.It's great that these elegant ladies like Linglong and praise Linglong. Linglong is not shy or timid at all, and she is generous.

Jingjia felt that the group of bejeweled women in front of her made her a little confused, so she stood solemnly with a straight face, thinking and saying nothing.When Jingxi used to go out with Mrs. Yu, she was the one who was praised by relatives and friends, and she was the one who stood in the middle and enjoyed the envious eyes of other girls, but now she has become dispensable Characters, these noble ladies didn't even glance at her from the corner of their eyes, and their hearts were quite hurt.

"Too snobbish." Jing Xi was annoyed.

Su Shengchun glanced over the girl in yellow inadvertently, and there was no admiration in his eyes.What my cousin said is right, she is just a girl who looks down on people at all times, and the village girls in the country are like her.If she was really a girl from a wealthy family, she would definitely not hurt others at will.

That's called being educated.

The girl in yellow has big black and bright eyes, and her imposing manner is impressive.She watched Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wu trying their best to be polite to Qiao Sirou, praising Linglong to the sky, and she couldn't help but get angry.This little girl was rude to me first, but my sister and this mother-in-law are holding her like this, it's really outrageous!
A young woman wearing a flying fairy bun and wearing a peony beanie embroidered with silver and red palace flowers and pinched with golden thread and broken branches turned her head and looked at her twice with warning eyes.This young woman has an outstanding appearance and sharp eyes. Although Qin Shiming, the girl in yellow, has a bad temper, she lowered her head and dared not make a mistake.

Zu Jiying, a girl in a pink shirt, patted her hand comfortingly.

Qin Shiming's heart was slightly calm.

Qiao Sirou let everyone in with a smile on his face, "Please go to the hall for tea." The group went to the big flower hall together.There are already many guests in the big flower hall, and the most eye-catching ones are probably Chongshanhou's wife Wang, her daughter Xu Chuanxing, and her niece Xu Chuanjie.Chong Shanhou is well-known as a good old man, but his wife Wang looks very shrewd, with a pair of Danfeng eyes that are sharp and ruthless, even when she smiles, she has no affinity at all.Xu Chuanxing probably looks like his father, and his temper is also like his father's, with delicate features, soft-spoken, and very gentle temperament.As for Xu Chuanjie, the empress's niece, she is fifteen or sixteen years old, she wears a Japanese bun on her head, a lake blue Song brocade shirt, and a skirt of lacquered gold with hundreds of flowers scattered on the floor.

After Wen Shi and Wu Shi came in, they couldn't help saying hello to Wang Shi and others, and the big flower hall was very lively for a while.

Su Shengchun came here to broaden his horizons. Looking at Xu Chuanjie from a distance, his eyes straightened, "Cousin, this is the daughter of the Queen's sister? She looks like a fairy."

Linglong followed her gaze and smiled at Mimi, "Yes, like a fairy."

Linglong suddenly felt very happy.Is this the girl that cousin of the Song family is looking for?The little girl looks pretty good, she matches her big cousin very well!

Poor big cousin, with an unreliable father, and a muddled and soft-hearted grandmother, if the marriage doesn't go well, how pitiful it is.

"Can I help my poor big cousin?" Linglong's eyes rolled around.

How happy my aunt would be if my eldest cousin married a wife he liked.Helping my cousin is helping my aunt.

Qiao Zhijun came over with a smile, "Little cousin, you are here." Pulling up Linglong's small hand to look up and down, seeing that Linglong was really wearing the clothes and jewelry she had chosen, lively and delicate, graceful and beautiful, he couldn't help being very satisfied, "Little cousin, let's go to the lilac garden to enjoy the flowers. You follow cousin, don't lose you."

Linglong gave her a bright smile, "Cousin, you are so kind to take care of me. Cousin, do all the girls go to Lilac Garden?"

Qiao Zhijun is the little master, if she goes to the Lilac Garden, of course it's not for playing, but to entertain guests.

"Yes." Qiao Zhijun nodded, "The Lilac Garden is in full bloom right now. Mother and Eldest Aunt have discussed it. Please come and enjoy the flowers and recite poems in the garden."

The lilac garden of Qiao’s family is very large. There are five courtyards in total. In addition to white lilacs and lilacs, there are occasional Xifu crabapple and pear blossoms in each courtyard.

"Okay, okay." Linglong nodded hastily.

Of course Xu Chuanjie is going too, very good.

Qiao Zhijun invited a group of ladies to Lilac Garden.The Lilac Garden is located in a quiet place, and when they walked to the garden, everyone felt refreshed, "It's a good place." After entering the garden, bursts of pleasant fragrance came oncoming, and many people closed their eyes intoxicated.

Such a large garden is full of lilacs, and the fragrance is really irresistible.

Qiao Zhijun invites all daughters to enjoy it as they please.There are five courtyards in this lilac garden. The houses in the middle are displayed with various antiques and objects, and the rooms on both sides are for resting at will. There are couches to lie on, tea to drink, and books to read.There are maids and mothers-in-law in every house to serve, no matter where the guests go, there are people to call.

There are also small round tables and embroidered stools under the lilac tree and crabapple tree in the yard. If you want to sit here, there is nothing wrong with it. Whenever someone sits down, there will be tea and snacks offered by clever girls, very attentive and thoughtful.
