Chapter 285 Gossip
After the spring blossoms, Xiao Que stayed in Chujiang for about two months, and there were more and more postings in the other hall after the year.It's not as relaxed as before.

At this time, Fu Yunshu was gesturing at the clothes in front of the mirror. The lake-green clothes were embroidered with a few branches of peach blossoms, and two bluebirds were perched on the peach blossoms. The fabric was fine brocade, and the clothes were embroidered with the best Shu embroidery.It's just that the skirt is a little shorter, reaching to the ankles, and the sleeves are also a little shorter, revealing delicate wrists.

After Fu Yunshu put it on, he moved uncomfortably, and said to Yuniang: "Yuniang, these clothes are too small."

Yun Niang smiled and said: "These clothes were made by the wives when they returned to the capital the year before last. They brought a few boxes full of them. I was afraid that the young lady would not be able to wear them if she grew taller. The clothes in this box, Miss I haven't worn them all yet, and I'm already too small. Miss is growing fast..."

When they were in Ningzhou, the aunts treated Fu Yunshu very well, because the Pei family were all sons, and only a daughter like Fu Yunshu wanted to dress Fu Yunshu in the best of everything like a doll.Although Fu Yunshu was never by his mother's side since he was a child, all the clothes he wore were handled by his aunts, and Fu Yunshu had never been wronged.

Therefore, when returning to the capital from Ningzhou, the aunts were afraid that she would be wronged, not to mention anything else, they brought several boxes of clothes, including spring, summer, autumn and winter.

After arriving in the capital, Pei Yue's attitude towards Fu Yunshu was indifferent, except for a few times at the palace banquet, she basically didn't add a few clothes to Fu Yunshu.

Hearing Yunniang say that she has grown taller, Fu Yunshu was also very happy. He compared his height and said with a smile: "I also think I have grown a lot taller..."

Seeing Fu Yunshu's childish appearance, Yunniang couldn't help smiling, and said: "It seems that the clothes I made in Ningzhou the year before last can no longer be worn, and some social gatherings are necessary when going out. Miss, you can't let others see the joke. If today If you come back from Lord Luo's residence early, it's better to go to the tailor shop and buy some clothes when you come back."

After all, Yunniang is protecting his shortcomings, Fu Yunshu doesn't care much about his own food and clothing, but Yunniang has carefully planned everything for Fu Yunshu.

It's just that today I went to the Chujiang Jiedu Envoy Luo Heng's house for a banquet, and all the officials, big and small, would be there to accompany me. It was said that it was a lunch banquet, and I didn't know when I would be back in the evening.

Seeing what Yunniang said, Fu Yunshu responded first.Seeing that Fu Yunshu responded in vain, but didn't take it seriously, Yunniang habitually said: "Miss, don't just answer, if you really don't have time to go to a tailor shop outside to choose it yourself, tomorrow the servant will let the tailor The shop will send you some good fabrics, Miss, you can choose a few patterns and colors to measure your body, and then make new clothes."

Fu Yunshu twitched helplessly for Yunniang's character of saying that the wind is the rain. Yunniang was very serious in her work, and she would never let it go, especially when it came to her.But Yunniang was still pondering: "If it's not enough to just add a few clothes, Miss jewelry may not be added for a long time, why don't you ask the jewelry store to send some fashionable jewelry."

When they were in Ningzhou, the Pei family was a big family, and every year when the seasons changed, there would be a special clothing store that brought fashionable fabric jewelry for the lady in the house to choose.It's just that in Chuzhou now, Fu Yunshu didn't want to attract so much attention, so he said quickly: "Yun Niang, I'll just go and see for myself when I come back today, why bother mobilizing people like this."

Yunniang glanced at Fu Yunshu lightly, obviously not believing Fu Yunshu's words.Cang Hai saw that Fu Yunshu was afraid of troubling others, so he pursed his lips and smiled and said, "Miss, Mr. Xiao is around, you don't need us to take money for you to choose some clothes and jewelry."

Cang Hai directly regarded Xiao Que as his son-in-law, and he didn't know the word "invisible".

Fu Yunshu wanted to say something else, but Cang Hai pouted and said: "Miss, you should choose some new clothes. I see that the so-called noble girls in Chujiang look like their eyes are high above the top, and they are dressed in gorgeous ways. Those People say it's for Young Master Xiao, but no one knows what kind of plan is behind the scenes."

After the beginning of the new year, Xiao Que was idle in Chujiang as the left prime minister. Even though he rejected all the posts that could be rejected, there were still a few important ones that could not be avoided, and Xiao Que wanted to attend.Sometimes Fu Yunshu's name is deliberately added.

Even though Xiao Que used to protect his shortcomings, he didn't like Fu Yunshu attending such an occasion.It’s just that Fu Yunshu thought that although Xiao Que had a high position and authority, it would be better to offend some people less. After all, Chu Chu had already offended some officials at Chu Qianyin’s welcome banquet. As an official in the court, if you can make fewer enemies, you will have fewer enemies. make enemies.Although Fu Yunshu has never been in the officialdom, he still understands these principles.

Xiao Que went to the banquet in the front hall, and Fu Yunshu followed several female relatives in the Chujiang mansion in the backyard.Among the female family members, it is unavoidable to talk about the gossip news of some parents, the gossip news of the rich and the rich, and the comparison between each other.

Fu Yunshu, as the first female official in the imperial court to leave the country as an envoy, and has an ambiguous relationship with Xiao Que, naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Fu Yunshu was always worried about whether Xiao Que's reputation in front of the officialdom and the world would be affected after the relationship between the two was announced to the public because of his self-willedness for a while.But it never occurred to him that Xiao Que is a man, and he likes to keep a cold face because of his high position. Even if someone is doing tricks in secret, he dare not discuss anything with Xiao Que in the open.Especially on the first day of their arrival, after Xiao Que gave them a big blow.

But Fu Yunshu was different, she was a woman, so naturally she received more criticism than Xiao Que.

Xiao Que was originally a well-known figure in Jinghua, coupled with his status as a left-hander with high authority, and an unparalleled face, he was naturally the object of many Chujiang dignitaries and the dream lover of the daughter of Chujiang's boudoir.

The dignitaries of Chuzhou tried their best to invite Xiao Que to the mansion for a banquet. One of the intentions was to win over Xiao Que, but on the other hand, they let their own daughter come out to receive them without any defense. In addition to the exquisiteness of the nobles in the capital, there is an additional layer of marriage.

Even though the matter between Xiao Que and Fu Yunshu was full of turmoil, everyone still thought that the majestic Mr. Yuyan couldn't really marry his nominal apprentice as his wife at the risk of the world.This is one, and the second is that even though Xiao Que and Fu Yunshu are really in love with each other, ordinary people have three wives and four concubines, let alone such an outstanding man like Xiao Que.Therefore, let all the daughters of the concubines who were born in the first place come out to accompany him. If Xiao Que can fancy someone, it will be his own good luck.

Those daughters in the boudoir have long heard that Mr. Yuyan is famous, and the bamboo curtains and gauze curtains are separated at the banquet, but it does not prevent the hazy silhouette of the man from being seen, and he looks like a fairy, and Fu Yunshu, who is close to Xiao Que, will She regarded it as a thorn in her flesh, and although she dared not to argue with Fu Yunshu in the open, what she said in secret was indeed extremely unpleasant.

Facing the cynicism of those people, it was nothing more than saying that Fu Yunshu was ignorant of etiquette, and even went out of the country like a man in public, and even seduced his nominal master.How could such a person as Jiyueqingfeng like Mr. Yuyan do such an unethical thing, it must be Fu Yunshu's intentional seduction.These words are as ugly as they want, and they are clearly slandering Fu Yunshu's boudoir reputation.

Fu Yunshu just pretended that he didn't hear it, and no one could find any faults in his words and deeds. Those so-called noble ladies were angry when they saw Fu Yunshu's reluctance, but there was nothing they could do about Fu Yunshu.

Cang Hai wanted to argue with them, but Fu Yunshu had an indifferent expression on his face, and said, "Miss, what they say and do is too much. They are no more than the daughters of fourth-rank officials, and you are the daughter of a first-rank prime minister in the majestic capital." , dare to disrespect you!"

Fu Yunshu smiled, brushed off the non-existent dust on his sleeves, and said: "People in the countryside don't know the difference between superiority and inferiority. If I have the same knowledge as them, I will lose my value."

Although they didn't mention who they were by name, their faces turned blue and red because they were pointing fingers and scolding Huai Huai, and they didn't know how to respond.The corner of Fu Yunshu's mouth curled up into a sneer, she didn't have to worry about some things, but that didn't mean she was easy to deal with.

Seeing the wonderful expression on the face of the person sitting on it, Fu Yunshu felt very happy when he dared not speak out.

On the way back, Cang Hai still felt aggrieved, but Fu Yunshu didn't care about the ugly rumors circulating, so Cang Hai couldn't help asking: "Miss, don't you care about what they say about you?"

Fu Yunshu just smiled and said nothing, as long as they are happy, as long as Xiao Que doesn't care about these rumors, why should she bother herself because of other people's words?All she cares about is that one person...

When thinking of this, a few knocks on the door outside interrupted Fu Yunshu's thoughts.But it was Liu Qingyan who walked in with a smile. Today, he was wearing a royal blue gown trimmed with silver silk and outlined a few chrysanthemums with gold thread. Although it was early spring, he was holding a folding fan in his hand, and a piece of jade was hanging on the fan. Pendant, that look is as suave and suave as possible, and it is a good appearance of a modest son who is as gentle as jade.With low eyebrows and a slight smile, I don't know how many girls in the boudoir have been deceived by his good skin.

But Liu Qingyan came in, looked around Fu Yunshu, and saw the young girl wearing a smoky blue dress, as delicate as a bud on a branch, very pretty, but the dress seemed to be a bit short.

Liu Qingyan has an easy-going personality, and the two brothers and sisters are used to playing around. Although Liu Qingyan is very unreliable a lot of times, Fu Yunshu still likes this senior who protects himself like a brother.Seeing Liu Qingyan coming in, he turned around in front of Liu Qingyan like offering a treasure, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, do you think I have grown taller..."

Smiling with the romanticism of a girl unique to this period, but seeing Liu Qingyan holding her forehead with a fan, she pondered for a moment without speaking, met Fu Yunshu's earnest eyes, and said with a smile: "Small clothes don't necessarily mean growing taller, Maybe he gained weight."

While talking, he gestured to the girl who was not as tall as his chest, and said, "Just say you haven't grown much taller..."

Fu Yunshu's stature is considered petite even if it is the weight of a woman in the country of Xi. The most taboo thing is that people say he is short. Seeing Liu Qingyan like this, he looks like a cat with fried hair. He stared at Liu Qingyan and said: "The clothes are too short. It's not that she's younger, she's obviously grown taller, if you don't believe me, ask Yunniang..."

Yunniang only smiled and watched the two senior brothers and sisters fight. Although the senior brother Liu Qingyan appeared on the way, her love for Fu Yunshu was real, and she was also happy to see Fu Yunshu get close to him.

Obviously, Xiao Que was not here, Liu Qingyan was addicted to bullying Fu Yunshu, and said: "Chu Qianyin invited a lot of well-known families and ladies for today's spring outing, Xiao Que's status is noble, I don't know how many people looked at him with envy. If you don't dress up today and look better, don't be compared to them..."

Fu Yunshu gave Liu Qingyan a blank look, raised his chin and said to Liu Qingyan in a very airy manner: "I am born beautiful, so I am not afraid of being caught by those vulgar fans."

Originally, Fu Yunshu and Liu Qingyan were used to joking, so they spoke in such a shameless manner, but they didn't expect Xie Yizhi and Xiao Que to come at some time, and Xiao Que's eyes rarely had a smile on their face. There was a bit of a smile, obviously he had completely overheard the conversation between Liu Qingyan and Fu Yunshu just now.

Fu Yunshu glared at Liu Qingyan fiercely, but Xiao Que didn't make fun of Fu Yunshu, but said: "I've grown taller, I'll take you to a tailor shop tomorrow to make some clothes."

Fu Yunshu had just brought a smile on his face.
