Chapter Ninety-Two: Redressing

Since Gu Chao knew how to dress up, he would inevitably toss every time he saw a guest.

This has been a law that has been unshaken for many years.

Not only the Gu Mansion, but also the subordinates of the Yuan Mansion have long been accustomed to it.

Today is the same, after breakfast, the Chaoyun courtyard began to be lively.

The clothes and jewelry were carefully selected yesterday, but Gu Chao disliked that the clove cardamom craftsmanship was not good enough, so he specially asked Mama Jin to come over and comb her hair bun.

In fact, Mama Jin is too old to do her strength, and her dexterity has long been unable to catch up with cloves and cardamom, and a liuyun bun that used to be the best in the past was stunned to comb Gu Chao three times before she was satisfied.

Yuan Xiang had the heart to comb her mother's hair, but how dare she let her mother know that she still had such a hand, so she could only watch silently from the side.

It's easy to comb your hair and make up good makeup, and it's lunch time, and after eating, I think the makeup is not perfect enough, so I have to wash my face and start again.

The maids, chickens, and dogs in the yard were jumping, and Yuan Xiang on the side was already drowsy.

Gu Chao, who put on good makeup again, took the clothes he had picked out yesterday and put them on properly under the service of clove cardamom.

The beauty in the mirror is still charming, and her demeanor is still graceful, and she can't even take her eyes off it.

I haven't seen Gu Xi for more than ten years, and Gu Chao's desire to win is even better than before.

When the sisters were together, the external conditions were almost the same, and they could only care about who was more favored in front of their parents and who received more praise.

Nowadays, everyone is a married woman, nothing more than one can only compare who lives better, and the word "good" is most directly reflected in the face, people who live well can naturally maintain their youth and beauty for a long time, and those who have a bad life are directly reduced to a haggard yellow-faced woman.

Since she was a child, Gu Xi has received more praise than her, and her marriage is smoother than her, so she doesn't want to be compared to her twin sister for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, her heart moved, didn't Xiang'er see Gu Xi several times after returning to Beijing, and she didn't even ask about it.

It's dizzy!

She still looked at herself in the mirror reluctantly, and didn't even bother to look back and asked lazily: "Xiang'er, who do you think looks younger than Mother or Little Aunt?" ”

Yuan Xiang shrank in a corner where the dressing mirror could not be illuminated, and her chin was about to fall asleep, and when she heard her mother call her name, she woke up with a spirit.

It's just that her eyelids are still drooping downward, and she struggles to open her eyes and whispers: "Mother, what are you saying, I didn't hear ...... clearly"

Gu Chao was angry and turned his head to glare at Yuan Xiang.

I saw that my daughter was wearing a light-colored skirt and a common bun, and she didn't even wear a piece of jewelry that could catch her eyes.

The most important thing is that her whole person looks sluggish, as if she hasn't slept for a long time.

How can this appearance compare with Gu Xi's daughter, Lord Ruijia? She is the queen's favorite niece!

She couldn't care about the question of herself and Gu Ximei, and Liu Mei raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Yuan Xiang! What about the clothes that your mother picked out for you yesterday? And can you see for yourself that you can see people in your bun? A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, who can't fight at all, what does it look like! ”

Now Yuan Xiang was completely frightened awake, she was almost fourteen years old, and it was the first time she heard her mother call her full name, and that menacing appearance was simply too scary.

She quickly stood up and replied: "Mother said a few days ago that her daughter's appearance is delicate and not beautiful, and she is not suitable for bright clothes, let alone luxurious dress, but yesterday's clothes and jewelry are ......."

Gu Chao's mood was a little depressed in an instant.

Her Xiang'er really stayed in the countryside for more than five years and was delayed, and these five years happened to be a critical period for girls to form correct aesthetics.

Although the clothes and jewelry she picked out yesterday were slightly more gorgeous than Xiang'er's usual dress, they were still in the category that suited her temperament, but this child didn't know how to appreciate it at all.

She is so tender and competent to even be the head of the noble family, let alone go further.

It seems that it is necessary to intensify the tuning in this area.

Mama Jin couldn't stand it anymore, the eldest lady played like a child, she has always had her own unique opinions on dress, and as long as other people's aesthetics are slightly different from her, it is equivalent to bad.

In her opinion, the eldest girl's dress is clear and generous, which is very consistent with her gentle and beautiful temperament.

But Rao is a nurturing grandmother like her who came out of the palace, and she didn't dare to question the eyes of the eldest lady of the Gu family in terms of dress.

After all, Yuan Xiang is Gu Chao's biological daughter, not a dispensable adopted daughter like Doudou, her attitude quickly softened, and she said softly to Yuan Xiang: "If you don't like it, forget it, come over and ask your mother to pick out a few pieces of jewelry for you again." ”

Yuan Xiang obediently sat in front of the dressing table and let Gu Chao redress her makeup.

Although Gu Chao is arrogant and ignorant, no one can deny that she has an extraordinary talent in dressing.

It didn't take long for the girl in the mirror to be a little more delicate and noble, but it did not hide her gentle and beautiful temperament at all.

Girls love beauty by nature, not to mention that this is still a careful dress made by their mother for herself, Yuan Xiang is indescribably happy and excited.

The rest of the room was also amazed, and the lady's skills were indeed something they couldn't learn in their lifetime.

Only Gu Chao couldn't be happy at all.

She has done her best, and Xiang'er's appearance can only be regarded as passable in her eyes, and it is not half a star compared to Yuan'er's wild girl.

Obviously, this is his own flesh and blood, why did he let that wild girl inherit this peerless beauty.

No wonder the princes only revolve around Yuan'er.

There is also the villain Yu Wenzhao, who wants to show his attention to Yuan Zheng, and the daughter who summoned him should also consider the eldest daughter first, but he only remembered that there was a second girl in the Yuan family.

It's not because of her appearance, is it that the wild girl jumped up and down and alarmed the emperor?

Yuan Xiang didn't seem happy to see his mother in the mirror, and he began to get nervous again, and whispered, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Gu Chao came back to his senses and smiled, patted his daughter's little face and said, "My Xiang'er is really a beauty, no matter how she dresses up, she looks good." ”

Yuan Xiang smiled shyly: "Compared with her mother, her daughter's appearance is too ordinary. ”

Gu Chao is even worse, what Xiang'er means by this is to admit that she is not as good as that wild girl? Although this is indeed true, a girl like her, who has no arrogance at all, is simply not like her Gu Chao's daughter.

"Second Madam, Mrs. Wu Ninghou's carriage has entered the mansion." Outside the house, the voice of the little maid came from the water.

Gu Chao regained his strength and smiled: "Let's go, let's go and greet your little aunt together, and let her see how beautiful our Xiang'er is today." ”

Yuan Xiang grabbed his mother's arm and helped her walk out together. (To be continued.) )
