Chapter 56 Encountering the daughters of the Zheng family
Jiang Huijia looked up and saw several people coming down from the small carriage with blue curtains and jewels tied to the four corners of the door. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
First is the mother-in-law who drives the car, the daughter-in-law who follows the car, and then the young girl with a bright face. The one who was helped down was a beautiful young woman with a pearl on her head and her eyes. She stretched out her hand again and personally helped out a fair girl wearing a hat from the car.
The young woman smiled and said to the girl in the hat: "This embroidered Accord is also passable, although it is not as large as the day embroidery workshop, but their embroidery is better in the exquisite patterns, there are certain characteristics. ”
The girl in the hat replied softly, her voice was quiet and soft, quite temperamental.
Jiang Huijia glanced at it and immediately withdrew her gaze. The lady who stayed behind the counter had already passed her and greeted the guests who looked like the ladies of large families.
Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law approached Jiang Huijia and said in a low voice: "Huiniang, this is a distinguished guest, let's get out of the way." ”
Jiang Huijia couldn't accept her call herself as "aunt", so she had already told her to call her by her own name. Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law was originally three or four years older than Jiang Huijia, and they were only in the same village, and they were not related to each other, and after Wu Sanniang's consent, she changed her mind immediately.
In fact, she is called Jiang Huijia "aunt", and she is also awkward.
At this time, the female guy who went to the inner room first to deliver a message to Wu Sanniang also came out, and she was followed by a tall woman in her thirties. This woman was wearing a half-arm skirt and some silver-inlaid jewels on her head, dressed neatly, and this appearance was the Zhao Niangzi Zhao shopkeeper that Wu Sanniang talked about before.
Zhao Niangzi also greeted the distinguished guest with a smile, and the female guy who invited her out walked up to Wu Sanniang and whispered to her: "Why don't you go to the room with me to have a cup of tea and sit down?"
Wu Sanniang hurriedly said: "Don't bother, let's just wait, you are busy." ”
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked to the corner of the store, avoiding the group of girls and women who were clustered together.
Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law had a little sense of freshness, and couldn't help but look over there a few more times. However, she often followed her mother-in-law to this embroidery workshop, so she met the daughters of rich and noble families a lot of times, so she knew the rules, and after a few more glances, she closed her eyes.
Wu Sanniang whispered: "This is the daughter of the Zheng family in Taiping Hele Building, I have seen the older lady, it is the grandmother of the Zheng family." ”
It turned out to be the daughter of the Zheng family of Taiping Hele Building!
Jiang Huijia has heard the name of Taiping Hele House many times, but it is the first time she knows that the original surname of the owner behind Taiping Hele House is Zheng.
Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law couldn't help but say: "I heard that although the Zheng family is the owner behind Taiping Hele Building, they are actually an official family. The old lady of the Zheng family is a senior official of the imperial court, and it turns out that he is a second-class person. Mother, isn't that so?"
For most civilians, people like the Zheng family always carry an unattainable aura of mystery, and even a little discussion about them always makes people feel new and excited.
Wu Sanniang couldn't help but say: "Not only that, but there are several masters of their family who are now in charge, and there are several officials." It is said that in addition to the few who were released from the outside, there are also Beijing officials! As for the eldest son and grandson, the husband of Grandma Zheng, he also passed the examination two years earlier. It is said that he is now studying in the capital Guozijian, and he will be directly admitted to the Jinshi in the spring of next year. ”
She even knew this, Jiang Huijia couldn't help but look up at her. I can't see it, Wu Sanniang, who is a big girl, is also a gossip expert!
Jiang Huijia listened to the gossip in her stomach, and then heard Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law lower her voice and sighed: "Speaking of which, isn't that Grandma Zheng and her man separated from each other?
She is a real countryman, and she can't help but speak with some rudeness. Wu Sanniang glared at her: "If you can't speak, stop talking! This is also what you can discuss?"
The three of them were gossiping, and they saw the shopkeeper Zhao over there take an embroidered fan out of the counter. It was a fan with a green sandalwood handle, and the end of the fan handle was decorated with a jade tassel, which made people feel that the workmanship was very exquisite. Grandma Zheng took the fan from the shopkeeper Zhao and said in surprise: "This is double-sided embroidery?"
Double-sided embroidery is the legendary embroidery art, although it is not said to have been lost in today's world, but it is also very rare, no wonder even Grandma Zheng was shocked when she saw it.
Wu Sanniang heard that it was double-sided embroidery, and she couldn't help but stick her head over there. Although they are far away, they can't see the pattern on the fan clearly here, but as an embroiderer with outstanding embroidery skills, double-sided embroidery is an irresistible temptation for Wu Sanniang.
Grandma Zheng played with the fan, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to the girl in the hat beside her, and said softly: "Seventh sister, look, this fan is still interesting?"
The girl in the hat stretched out a slender hand like a jade onion, gently pushed the fan, turned the fan handle and watched for a moment, and the voice like Wen Yu striking sounded: "One side embroiders cats, one side embroiders butterflies, although it is not surprising, but it is superior in embroidery, and it is also ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, her voice stopped abruptly.
This sudden pause caused Grandma Zheng to look at her with concern, but she didn't realize it, just remained silent.
Grandma Zheng is a little strange, but she is very careful about her attitude towards girls. The girl was suddenly silent, and she didn't dare to rush to ask. After waiting for a while, seeing that the girl was still standing still, maintaining her original posture and not moving, she couldn't help but ask, "Seventh sister?"
The girl in the hat still ignored it.
The atmosphere was a little weird now, and a personal girl who followed the girl couldn't help but call softly: "Seven ladies?"
"Sister-in-law Zheng!" On the other side, Jiang Huijia suddenly called Wu Sanniang softly, "I'm a little hungry, why don't we go eat something first, and come over here later, can you take a look?"
Along the way, Jiang Huijia behaved politely, and at this time, she suddenly made such a request, and Wu Sanniang and Zhou Dalang's daughter-in-law were stunned. Wu Sanniang hesitated and said, "Huiniang, you ......"
Jiang Huijia actually grabbed Wu Sanniang's hand and laughed softly: "Good sister-in-law, I have a lot of worms in my stomach, let's go!"
She couldn't tell Wu Sanniang, she had already seen that the sudden strange silence of the girl in the hat was actually because she had a seizure!
This is a sign of stiffness after a seizure, and after a while, she is likely to mutate from stiffness to spasmodic convulsions, or have other symptoms, but this varies from person to person, and Jiang Huijia cannot predict it.
A girl from an official family, but suddenly had a seizure while going out shopping, what the consequences will be, just think about it. If you are not careful, once the news comes out, this girl's life may be ruined!
And the person who directly witnessed the girl's seizure is hard to say whether he will become the object of anger of the family behind the girl.
