Chapter 070: Sister-in-law
There was a girl's report outside, saying that the second girl, Cai Yurong, and the cousin Su Weirou were here.
Xie Fuya frowned, and then remembered what the second wife had said to herself: Take your second sister and Cousin Su more with you when you go to the banquet.
The invitations from various prefectures were sent to Shengshi Garden like snowflakes, and the three heads of the house and the old lady could see it.
Cai Yurong has reached the age of marriage, and the second wife naturally hopes to let her daughter marry high, and follow the county lord's sister-in-law, Cai Yurong's identity is not ordinary.
Su Weirou was proposed by the old lady to let Xie Fuyaduo take her outside, and the implication was also to let the wives of various prefectures know Su Weirou, and it would be cheaper for her granddaughter to say goodbye in Beijing in the future.
One is the snarky sister-in-law who only stared at her clothes and dowry in the previous life, and the other is the enemy who poisoned her in the previous life, Xie Fuya felt uncomfortable when she thought of the two of them, and she was even more disgusted when she saw it.
At the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Banquet, Xie Fuya deliberately asked Cai Yurong to wear clothes of the same color as Zhou He's concubine, the original intention was to let Zhou Hefei teach Cai Yurong a small lesson! Who knew that he fell into the water and disrupted this move, Cai Yurong came back with all her beards and tails, but Zhou He's concubine was demoted!
This is the so-called gain and loss. He won the county lordship, and Cai Yurong was not taught a lesson in the palace. is also not well-planned, otherwise he would not have fallen into the water and fell ill.
Xie Fuya was thinking about it, when Cai Yurong and Su Weirou bypassed the gauze screen and entered the room.
"Say hello to my second sister-in-law (cousin-in-law). Cai Yurong smiled and blessed her body casually like a joke, and Su Weirou gave a formal blessing.
Xie Fuya tugged at the corners of her mouth, and finally gave up trying to smile.
"You're welcome, two sisters. Xie Fuya said lightly, "Why do you have time to come to me?"
Su Weirou seemed a little timid and looked at her cousin Cai Yurong.
Cai Yurong was used to being presumptuous in front of Xie Fuya, so she walked to the side and sat down with a big grin, and said with a smile: "I heard that my mother said that the second sister-in-law was going to take me and Cousin Wei Rou to the Liang Wangfu tomorrow, so I specially came over to ask the second sister-in-law what we were wearing to be decent." ”
What do you wear to be decent? Is it in disguise and asking for something?
Xie Fuya chuckled, "My sisters are at the age of Ruhua, so naturally they look good in whatever they wear." If you want to say it decently, as long as the ornaments do not exceed the rules. ”
Cai Yurong was naturally dissatisfied with Xie Fuya's answer, and pestered: "Second sister-in-law should know that Cousin Su didn't bring too many clothes and ornaments when she came over, and if she went to the Liang Wang's Mansion tomorrow to dress too shabby, wouldn't it be a shame for your sister-in-law? Why don't your sister-in-law take out a few pieces of jewelry and borrow them from Cousin Su to wear to the banquet, and I will return them to you when I come back." ”
Su Weirou's face flushed, and she hurriedly said: "Cousin Yurong, it doesn't matter if I don't go, how can I borrow jewelry from my cousin." ”
Xie Fuya helped her sideburns, a little impatient to deal with these two.
"Cousin Su is going to King Liang's Mansion for a banquet, how can the old lady not prepare clothes and accessories for Cousin Su? Xie Fuya said coldly.
Cai Yurong was stunned, she had never been treated so coldly when she came to Xie Fuya to ask for things before! Not to mention that she was rejected by her sister-in-law in front of Cousin Su, she suddenly felt that her face was gloomy!
"Then how can it be the same? Grandmother prepared for my cousin what she wanted for my grandmother, and what my second sister-in-law gave to my second sister-in-law!" Cai Yurong stood up dissatisfied, "Could it be that the second sister-in-law is reluctant to do so?"
Looking at Cai Yurong's nonsense attitude, Xie Fuya really laughed this time.
"Heh, seeing that the second sister doesn't seem to be here to lend me jewelry to Cousin Su, but like she wants to rob it?" Xie Fuya raised her eyebrows and said sarcastically, "I said that I borrowed it before, but now I will say it to ...... The second sister is generous, why don't you pick two or three pieces of jewelry from the jewelry I once gave you and give them to Cousin Su?"
"You! I!" Cai Yurong was scolded by Xie Fuya, glanced at Su Weirou, who was looking at her, and stomped her feet angrily, "I want to tell my mother, you are a sister-in-law who bullies me!"
After speaking, Cai Yurong turned her head and ran out.
Su Weirou didn't expect to follow Cai Yurong to Shengming Garden, but it took a few words to make a fuss like this! And because she ...... Su Weirou is really embarrassed!
"Cousin, I ......" Su Weirou wanted to explain to Xie Fuya that she was not here to borrow jewelry.
"Rushi, go and bring the pair of pearl beads in my makeup box to my cousin. Shefya instructed the maidservant.
Rushi answered, and went to the makeup box to find pearl flowers.
Su Weirou was ashamed and annoyed, secretly hating Cai Yurong for putting herself in such an embarrassing situation, and also resentful that Xie Fuya treated herself so slowly, giving away some old things at will like sending poor relatives.
Rushi found the pair of pearl beads from the makeup box, thought about it, took out her handkerchief and put the beads on it.
"Cousin. Rushi walked up to Su Weirou, "The pearls on this pair of pearl flowers were once a tribute in the palace, and Empress Xiaodexian made them into pearl flowers and gave them to Princess Anyang, and the princess gave them to our grandmother as a dowry." ”
Su Weirou lowered her eyes with a flushed face and glanced at the pair of beaded flowers. Pearls are indeed round and large, and they are not mundane at first glance, but they are not really unavailable in the market.
"Since it is so precious and meaningful, how can I win the love of my cousin-in-law. Su Weirou took a step back and waved her hand, "I came here today to ask my cousin if there are any taboos to pay attention to when she goes to King Liang's Mansion tomorrow, how can I think of Cousin Yurong and her ......?"
"If Cousin Su dislikes it, forget it. Xie Fuya said a little tiredly, "The second girl is not used to being here with me, and I don't mind the way she looks." Princess Liang is a gentle person, and Lord Minyi's temperament is as approachable as the princess. Do you have taboos...... As far as I know, no. ”
"Thank your cousin-in-law for her advice, and Wei Rou won't bother her cousin-in-law. Su Weirou said goodbye slightly.
"Like a poem, send me a cousin. Shefya said.
Su Weirou lowered her head and bit her lip, turned around and left the room.
Rushi sent people to the gate of the courtyard and gave a blessing, "The cousin girl walks slowly." ”
"Okay, Miss Rushi, please go back. Su Weisoft said softly.
Rushi got up and said to the little girl standing at the door: "Grandma is tired and wants to sleep for a while, close the courtyard door, so as not to disturb people and make noise about grandma." ”
"Hey!" the little girl obediently closed the courtyard door and bolted.
After taking a few steps, Su Weirou couldn't help but clench her fists in her sleeves when she heard Rushi's words and the sound of Sheng Shiyuan closing the door.
Cai Yurong didn't know where she went, and Su Weirou didn't have a girl with her, she got lost in the second room.
Thinking of her situation, Su Weirou felt uncomfortable in her heart, and held on to a willow tree on the side of the road and cried.
"Who's there?" suddenly came the man's impatient inquiry not far away.
Su Weirou covered her mouth in fright, raised her teary eyes and looked at the place where the voice came out, only to see a handsome young man in a white shirt walking out of the gazebo not far away.
"II...... Second cousin?" Su Weirou recognized that the young man was Cai Chengshan, the cousin of the second room.
