Chapter 14: The Golden Feather Dress
Mei Yuer, if you only listen to this name, she is definitely not the daughter of a serious family. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoHowever, if you know that Long Pan's late original wife is named Mei'er, many people will not think about it.
Sima Die's name has only been heard dozens of times so far, so naturally he will not know what the name of his ex-wife is. In fact, there is no shortage of women around Longpan, but he doesn't attach much importance to women. Everyone knows that the only person he loves is his dead wife. As for whether the two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood and have a deep friendship, or whether his wife died early and is just for nostalgia, no one can say clearly. I'm afraid that even Longpan himself won't know what he thinks.
That Mei Yuer dared to give herself such a name, which shows that she does have a certain amount of confidence in her heart. Using the name of Longpan's deceased wife can certainly attract his attention, but whether the result will cause Longpan's anger or cherish, no one can predict. It's just that it can be seen that Mei Yuer has long been ambitious, and it should be true.
"As far as the old man knows, that Mei Yu'er girl, twenty-eight years old, has been in this Shifang City for more than half a year, because as soon as she arrived, she revealed the intention of the master, so the city from the generals to the soldiers, not only no one disturbed her, but was respectful to her. ”
Sima Die thought for a while, clapped his hands and praised: "Wonderful." ”
Sima Die is also a smart and clear person, but he has been isolated from the world since he was a child, and he is smart but not much scheming. Otherwise, she would not have been caught by Steward Peng as soon as she inquired about the Xiangxue Banquet. At this time, when she heard the behavior of this beautiful girl, she couldn't help but be very interested: this trick is to advance and retreat, and it is used just right, not only to avoid the disaster caused by her appearance, but to make her worth rise in this Shifang City. Thinking that she had been hiding all the way, wearing a veil, and hiding in the carriage without being able to get out, she couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Steward Peng looked at Sima Die with a smile. This girl is like a sponge, unconsciously absorbing the wisdom of others. In time, it will shine. In the world in front of me, women who are only beautiful and have no brains will not live long.
"That Mei Yu'er girl, it is said that the dance is beautiful, but she has been in this Shifang City for a long time, but she has seen very little. Now that the Xiangxue banquet is imminent, she has been waiting for the opportunity for a long time, and she thinks she will not miss such a rare opportunity. ”
Sima Die nodded knowingly. If no one has ever seen her dance, how can the woman's reputation be so loud, but if everyone is so easy to see, it will be too cheap. It can be seen that the woman is also very careful in this Shifang City. Just wait for a blockbuster. Even if you change yourself, you may not be able to achieve more.
The talent that Sima Die can get by himself is also dance skills. After all, what can she learn in that remote mountain land? Can she learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? She can read a limited number of words still depends on her grandfather's teaching from an early age, but it is only literate. Humming a few songs and dancing a few dances is the game she and Ah Ling have played since childhood. Thinking of Ah Ling, Sima Die couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Grandpa steward, in your opinion, how does that Mei Yu'er girl compare with Ah Die?"
Steward Peng said with a smile: "If the girl doesn't come, this Xiangxue banquet will definitely be her leader." ”
This is between the two, on par. Sima Die thought about it for a while: I am a mountain village girl, I can play a little miscellaneous civilian dance, and I have never seen any big scenes, and my performance is almost ordinary. That Mei Yu'er is dedicated to the master, and she has been planning hard, so she must have known her preferences for the dragon plate for a long time. One is single-minded and the other is low-key, and the result can already hold eight points. What about the remaining two points...... To be sure, don't take it lightly. It's better to have something that can work, and drill the nail and drill the foot, so as to be in order.
At this time, Sima Die was already convinced that the old man in front of him was indeed sincere in helping him. Although I don't understand why the other party is doing this, the information he provides is exactly what he needs. If it was unintentional, how could there be such a coincidence? It was as if he had completely guessed what he was thinking. No, I came according to my own heart.
Sima Die hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know...... What do you like, and what do you taboo? The little woman is shallow, and she also asks the housekeeper grandfather for some advice, so as not to inadvertently offend that person. ”
The housekeeper's grandfather thought to himself, the little girl was talking nonsense, and the more she talked, the more slippery she became. I'm afraid you have to remove the word "so as" when you say this, right? Are you really sure you're not there to offend that person?
That's not the same as before. If you inquire about Mei Yuer, or any other lady, Steward Peng will tell her bluntly. However, the dragon pan is his master, and he is also the master of his master. It is disrespectful to talk behind your back. What's more, it's still with such a bad heart. This little girl is also bold.
However, Steward Peng can also be regarded as understanding the temperament of the dragon lord, if he changes to a more suspicious lord, he has to weigh what he says. But Long Pan is a rough and unruly person, and this Sima girl is different from others...... Therefore, even if he is really offended, as long as he does not touch the bottom line, he will not blame him.
Chief Steward Peng pondered and said: "The Dragon Lord has fought all his life, and he does not have a few elegant bones on his body, but he has a wild and wanton personality, and he likes gorgeous and flamboyant things the most, which is not a secret. It can be seen that ordinary low-key people are not easy to enter his eyes. ”
If you say this, you don't say it. Sima Die also knew that the other party had scruples, and it seemed that if he wanted to act, he still had to make a fuss about this lack of limelight.
……
Within a few days, the news that a foreign businessman had spared no expense to buy a golden feather dress for his sister for the Xiangxue banquet spread in Shifang City.
The golden feather gauze is a garment made of precious golden feather yarn. The golden feather yarn is made of gold silk as thin as silk, and then mixed with silk to weave. The gold required for a piece of clothing is only two or three taels, but it is far more valuable than gold hundreds of times: it takes a lot of effort to draw the gold wire very finely, not to mention that the silk is so delicate that it is easily cut off by the innumerable gold wire. If the two are to be mixed together to weave a brocade, is it as simple as mixing them together? The amount of manpower and material resources and genius treasures spent in the process is really immeasurable. It is said that when you wear a garment made of gold feather yarn, you can't see anything when you don't move on a daytime, but when you walk, you can reflect all kinds of brilliance when you move. If you dance in such clothes, you will be dazzling and heartbreaking. Even ugly monsters can be as beautiful as a fairy. Even the great god of jumping will be able to enter the eye of the dragon plate.
Mei Yuer was born in poverty and was born with a unique good appearance, which brought her not smoothness, but a series of disasters: first her father died to protect her, and then her mother. Before she died, her dearest relatives earnestly entrusted, saying that she had such a look, even if she served the high-spirited person, it would not be too much, and she must not commit herself to the dust. Only by attaching to the person in the highest position will she not be scattered in this life. At that time, the young Mei Yuer was only seven years old. Since then, she has had to be alone, using all means at her disposal to protect herself, dealing with countless jackals, tigers and leopards.
After a few years, the little girl grew up and became more and more beautiful. Of course, as she gets older, it's not just her looks that are getting better.
At that time, the beacon fire of Shifang City was flaring. No city lord can hold on for more than half a year. Mei Yuer had no choice but to stand still. Fortunately, she is still young, so she can afford to wait. Sure enough, this wait is several years. But the hard work paid off, and overnight, the little-known dragon pan came to a sudden rise and fell from the sky without warning. The world was terrified. But Mei Yuer had an indescribable feeling: the person she was waiting for finally appeared.
Perhaps there is a terrible precision in a woman's intuition. After this dragon plate became the master, not only did he survive the siege of the city in the ten directions, but it seems that he also beat the alliances that besieged him very badly. In short, the liveliness of Shifang City lasted for about half a year, and the world had seen enough. Subsequently, the power of Longpan grew at an unstoppable pace.
Mei Yuer knew that the time was ripe, so she came. If it weren't for the opportunity to wait for a blockbuster, I'm afraid she would have already taken the dragon plate.
The more ambitious a person is, the more he is able to keep his temperament lurking. Mei Yu'er has been operating in Shifang City for a long time, and finally waited for the heaven-sent opportunity of the Xiangxue Banquet. She had already calculated clearly, how could any of those ladies in Shifang City be as good as herself? Unexpectedly, this was only one step away...... The difference of this step was that a Sima Butterfly fell in front of her eyes!
So where is Sima Die sacred?
Mei Yu'er has not been in vain in this Shifang City for half a year. It can be said that she had already found out at the first time that Miss Sima had just entered the city, and as soon as she came, she directly lived in Qi Yi's mansion. As for the girl's appearance and temperament, no one knows about it. If it weren't for her brother Sima Jian who took the initiative to buy a golden feather gown for her, I'm afraid no one would have noticed her at all.
Qi Yi's mansion, that is not a place where she Mei Yuer can casually insert eyeliner. Who is Qi Yi, the henchman of Longpan's henchmen! It is said that the daughter of Longpan once intended to marry, and Qi Yi's brother-sister affection, Longpan has never forced him in the slightest. It can be seen what his status is in front of the dragon pan. Such a popular character, the Sima girl had his protection, and Mei Yuer felt that she had met a strong opponent.
Not to mention, Sima Die also has a wealthy brother to support her.
Golden feather yarn, Mei Yuer naturally knows. How could she not know? What woman doesn't want to have a perfect dress? That golden feather gown is definitely the yearning of most women in the world. What's more, it's still a woman with a stunning face like Mei Yuer. It's a pity that she can only ask for it in a dream, in reality, even if Xiao wants to be on the dragon plate, it is easier than wanting to get that dress. As for the objects woven of golden feather yarn, Mei Yuer also got one: it was just a small scarf.
A scarf, and a whole scarf, even if you are not a discerning person, you can know that this is simply a duel between two magnitudes!
A scarf has almost exhausted all the thoughts that Mei Yuer can spend. But in order to win the attention of the dragon plate in one fell swoop, she also spent a lot of money to add glory to herself at all costs. However, what has become of her efforts and her long-term paving of the road at this moment?
If a person is almost determined, he will be crushed by reality almost in this instant.
Mei Yuer didn't believe that Sima Die had the beauty rumored by outsiders. After all, very few people have actually seen her. But so what? Sima Die didn't have to come forward, just a piece of clothing, and she had completely covered her. It is true that because of this matter, everyone put her Mei Yuer up and compared her with Sima Die, which also made her fame very popular at this time. It's a pity that she doesn't want such fame!
What she wants is to stand out and dominate.
It's not that Mei Yuer is competitive. Rather, if she is not the only one in the world, if she is not unique, how can she get the attention of Long Pan? Naturally, it is easy for her to attract Long Pan with her beauty. But if that was enough, why did she have to wait so long? She, Mei Yu'er, was there to be Longpan's stepwife. She is never willing to be only a concubine of Longpan.
No, you can't just sit back and wait. If she Mei Yu'er was a person who accepted her fate, I am afraid that she would have withered into red mud on the ground long ago. She has struggled with various crises since she was a child, and she has survived so far, and she will never allow anyone to stand in her way.
Xiangxue Banquet...... We'll see.
