Chapter 90 Being a Concubine
Su Mei counted the accounts and cash, and said to Jin Chuan: "Go and prepare the jewelry for tomorrow's banquet. Don't be too ostentatious, just pick a few low-key and elegant jewelry. In addition, go and buy the pair of mutton fat jade bracelets." Take it out, this is a gift I prepared for Miss Zhao."

The servant of Lin's mansion brought a gorgeous dress and handed it to Jin Chuan and said, "My son told me that Miss Su will wear this dress to the banquet tomorrow."

This moon-white skirt is made of high-quality brocade, and the outer shirt is made of extremely thin silk gauze. The touch of the dress on the fingertips is as soft as clouds in the sky.

The outer shirt was mixed with golden silk threads, shining brightly under the candlelight. Su Mei didn't know what kind of silk yarn it was made of, but she felt that the dress was very gorgeous. The hem and lapel of the moon white dress There are pink peach blossom petals embroidered everywhere, even Su Mei can't help but admire the elegant taste of Mr. Lin.

But that Mr. Lin had no good intentions for her, and he was a flirtatious person. She looked at this dress, but there was no joy on her face.

"No need, Mr. Lin and I have only met twice, and this dress is too luxurious, I will not accept it, you go back and tell your son, please ask Mr. Lin to abide by the agreement and send the invitation card for tomorrow's banquet .”

The young man said with a serious look: "My son said that he will go to the banquet tomorrow, and the son has ordered Miss Su to change into this dress and go, otherwise the girl will not see the invitation card."

Su Mei frowned, thinking in her heart that the man was really a villain, he was so dishonest, and she was even more surprised on the face, she asked Jin Chuan to accept the dress, and said: "Understood."

"What does that girl mean?"

Jin Chuan pouted and said angrily: "My girl has already agreed, you can go."

Early the next morning, Lin Liangchen's carriage was already waiting in front of the Liujin Pavilion, and Su Mei really changed into that gorgeous and extraordinary dress.

Today's weather was fine, and the sun was shining quietly from the gaps between the lush trees on both sides. Su Mei walked slowly, and saw her elegant clothes, shining brightly, like a fairy in the palace of heaven who was about to fly away.

In this moon-white dress that pinches the waist, under the snow-white silk gauze, you can faintly see the creamy snow-skinned skin. The double-breasted gown is half-opened to the chest, and the spring scenery on the chest is tightly covered, revealing her slender neck. and beautiful clavicles.

Lin Liangchen squinted his phoenix eyes, leaned beside the carriage, and quietly watched this beautiful picture of beauty.

Today, he is dressed in a brocade robe embroidered with cloud patterns and a jade crown. He looks like a gentle and elegant young man, but his squinted phoenix eyes are looking carefully, and his brows and eyes are full of romance.

Su Mei approached, frowned, and said, "Did Mr. Lin bring the invitation card?"

"A beauty should be dressed like this. This dress is still worthy of Miss Su." Lin Liangchen smiled, and said to the servant next to him: "Give the invitation card to Miss Su."

Su Mei smiled slyly at Lin Liangchen and said, "Thank you Mr. Lin."

After she saluted, she turned around and left. Lin Liangchen's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and he sighed, "Does this count as crossing the river and tearing down the bridge?"

The people who went to the prefect Mr. Zhao's house to go to the poetry meeting were all famous and talented women from Yangzhou City. Zhao Mingzhu loved poetry and prose, and invited many young talents. , A story of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies.

Liu Jiaying spent a lot of money to get a Cambodian post from a poor man's daughter, and hurried to come, just because she heard that the son of the Lin family would come to the poetry meeting, and wanted to show her face in front of him.

I heard that the Lin family has a shop on the same street, and that Lin Liangchen has been a Jinshi in high school at a young age, and will soon be an official in Beijing. If he can marry Lin Liangchen, he will not be a hundred times better than that humble concubine.

Liu Jiaying came here under the false name of someone else's invitation card. As soon as she entered the mansion, she looked around, but she didn't see Lin Liangchen, so she wanted to go to the Qingfeng Hall where the man was, but was stopped by the maids in Zhao's mansion. , "Miss, the Breeze Hall is full of men, and the poetry meeting is about to begin, please move to the West Wing."

Liu Jiaying nodded, but seeing Zhao Mingzhu appearing in a simple and elegant dress, her appearance is not outstanding, she is just an ordinary Xiaojiabiyu's delicate appearance, but she is superior in her temperament, like a plum like a plum, "please go to the west wing room and sit for a while , when everyone has arrived, the poetry meeting will be held in the hall of Huifang Hall."

She didn't dare to offend the lady of the magistrate's family, so she just lowered her head and went to the west wing with a resentful expression, waiting anxiously.

She wasn't interested in reading at all, she only knew a few words, and she couldn't compose poems. The talented girls were chattering non-stop, and she couldn't understand a word, so she had to go out and stand in the yard looking around.

I saw the peach blossoms in the courtyard were in full bloom, and a woman came slowly under the peach blossom tree. Halo, Liu Jiaying waited to see the woman's face clearly, her chest was full of anger, her eyes were fixed on Su Mei, as if she had a knife in her eyes, especially fierce.

"This is the mansion of the magistrate, how could a lowly concubine like you come here!"

Su Mei glanced at Liu Jiaying and ignored her. Liu Jiaying and He Shi have the same temperament. If they don't deal with each other in two or three sentences, they will throw a tantrum regardless of the occasion. Today she came for the business of Liujin Pavilion, and he didn't I don't want to entangle with Liu Jiaying.

What's more, Liu Jiaying's simple and rude way of injuring the enemy one thousand and self-defeating eight hundred, she really despises.

"Could it be that Ms. Zhao invited her cousin?"

Su Mei was really surprised. After all, Liu Jiaying couldn't even recognize characters. She didn't believe that Liu Jiaying could compose poems.

Liu Jiaying puffed her chest out, trying her best to hide her guilty conscience, "That's natural."

Su Mei knew Liu Jiaying was lying at a glance. Her eyes dodged, obviously lacking confidence. She pursed her lips and smiled and said, "As long as my cousin puts aside the past grievances and doesn't fight against me today, I won't expose you."

Liu Jiaying lowered her head, thought for a moment, raised her eyes and saw Lin Liangchen walking towards her, her eyes were shining brightly, and she couldn't bear the ecstasy in her heart, she wished Lin Liangchen a blessing, "I didn't expect to see Lin Liangchen here today. son."

Lin Liangchen just glanced at Liu Jiaying lightly, and asked, "Who are you?"

He really couldn't remember this kind of ordinary-looking woman, his eyes were all on Su Mei, "Why is Meier so naughty? We agreed to go together, but Meier is willing to leave me behind."

The corner of his mouth was smiling when he spoke, Liu Jiaying's words were like cooking oil in a fire, Liu Jiaying twisted her mouth angrily, she was ignored by Lin Liangchen, she was already full of anger, when she heard Lin Liangchen's ambiguous words, she was so angry Furious, he pointed at the tip of Su Mei's nose and started to scold.

"You shameless..."

Zhao Mingzhu coughed lightly behind her back and said, "Since everyone is a scholar, there is absolutely no reason to slander others without saying anything, otherwise Zhao Mansion does not welcome such people."

Zhao Mingzhu glanced at Lin Liangchen and Su Mei, frowned, and said to everyone: "Ladies, please follow me to Huifang Hall."

After Zhao Mingzhu and the girls left, Lin Liangchen leaned closer to Su Mei's ear and said, "You seem to have offended Ms. Zhao today, I'm afraid she won't let you get what you want, I know you came here for your shop today, Why don't you promise to be my concubine, and I can make your wish come true."

There was a cracking sound in the peach forest, Su Mei followed the sound and looked over, and met those cold eyes without any warmth.
