Mrs. Chang looked to be in her thirties, with a slightly pointed face, shrewd eyes, wearing a yellow woven gold phoenix tail tuanhua gown, a stone blue skirt, nodded, and the maid who helped her get out of the car took her purse out to reward. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Mrs. Chang looked arrogant and put on the posture of Mrs. Chang.

Several women did not dare to slack off, and accompanied Mrs. Chang through the gate and the hanging flower gate, and inside the hanging flower gate, a soft sedan chair stopped there. Although the Zhao family is not small, but it is not enough to use a carriage to travel, on weekdays, please visit the garden on foot, but Jifu Hall is not close to the Hanging Flower Gate, Mrs. Chang's identity is precious, Pei Shi was afraid that she felt neglected, so he ordered someone to put a soft sedan car to travel.

One of the women smiled and said, "Our wife heard yesterday that her in-laws were coming, and she was very happy, so she ordered someone to prepare the sedan chair early...... Mrs. Chang was very useful when she heard this, and after a few words of entertainment with several mothers, she was served by the maid and got into the sedan chair.

The four corners of the sedan chair are hung with red brocade sachets, and the blue satin cushions are set up with brand-new brocade pillows.

Seeing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Mrs. Chang's eyes. The daughter of the Zhao family is naturally not worthy of her son, but their family is in decline, and if they want to get rid of the quagmire in their careers, they need money up and down, so they have to marry a daughter-in-law with a rich dowry to make up for the shortcomings. But in any case, they are all meritorious families, and it is impossible to marry a merchant woman, which makes people laugh and pick and choose, and there is only this one family with a low official rank and a rich family.

She heard that the eldest lady of the Zhao family, Pei's mother's family, has an elder brother who is in the pearl and jade business, and the family is well-off, and the younger brother of the eldest lord of Zhao is also hopeless, and he is good at business, and the eldest lord of Zhao was once in charge of the salt transportation, which is a fat difference, and naturally he has made a lot of silver.

It's just that she is always a little apprehensive in her heart, afraid that they are just holding on to their skins like her own family, and when she looks at it today, she is also a lot more relieved.

Soon the sedan chair stopped at the gate of Jifutang. Pei Shi heard the report from the next person, checked Zhao Qingyi's makeup, put his mind at ease, and took his daughter to greet his in-laws with a smile.

When the two walked to the front of the courtyard, Mrs. Chang had just gotten off the soft sedan chair. Pei Shi hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"I haven't seen her for a few days, and Mrs. Tai's complexion is getting better and better. Pei Shi smiled.

Mrs. Chang smiled and nodded, but there was no resentment in her heart. Pei Shi was wearing a red butterfly pattern gown, his black hair was combed into a round bun, the red treasure earrings on his ears were swaying, his skin was fair, and his bearing was calm, obviously only two years younger than her, but he only looked like a young woman in her twenties. And she, who has been troubled by these gold and silver trivialities all the year round, looked in the mirror in the morning and found a few more fine lines, I am afraid that she will look ten years older than Pei's. If her husband is still there, she doesn't have to suffer these wrongs, let alone be in-laws with such a person!

She forgot that when the elder letter was there, she was just busy competing with the concubines and jealousy, and when she was not at ease, her mentality was not good, and her face would naturally show a decadent color. Pei's is different, she is in charge of the backyard contentistically, not too careful, she has a scale in her heart for everything, and she lives unhurriedly, and she is a person who really understands life. In contrast to the two compartments, Pei's is of course better than Mrs. Chang in color.

Pei Shi didn't notice this, and stepped forward to affectionately pull Mrs. Chang into the courtyard.

Mrs. Chang laughed and talked with Pei's family, and pretended to look at Miss Zhao beside her casually.

Zhao Qingyi is wearing a royal blue phoenix tail tuanhua top today, a moon-white pleated Ruyi skirt, a flying fairy bun, a pair of gold-inlaid hibiscus stone apricot flower hairpins obliquely inserted into the bun, and a pair of pearl earrings the size of lotus seeds on her ears, her face is a little ashamed, and she looks very gentle and moving.

She nodded secretly. The people of the Zhao family are all extraordinary, and they think they are really well-off. Although Miss Zhao has a bit of a notoriety reputation for being willful and rude, she dresses up with her heart and looks acceptable, and she will not be too wronged by her son. When I saw it today, I didn't see the rudeness, but it was true, and it could be screwed in the future. When she was not out of the cabinet, which girl was not raised in the palm of her hand, but most people were in front of her mother-in-law.

She was satisfied, and her face became kinder. As Pei entered the room and sat down, she began to talk about her intentions.

"In two days, it will be the eldest girl's ceremony, and the guests and praisers don't know if the in-laws' wives have chosen?" Mrs. Chang took a sip of tea.

Pei Shi was stunned. Zhengbin and praiser, she is naturally prepared, Mrs. Chang asked what was going on, although her status was more valuable than those people, but few people would let the future mother-in-law come to insert the hairpin, it was too unseemly.

She muttered: "Zhengbin invited Liu, the wife of Dali Siqing, and the praiser invited my mother's second sister-in-law, Zhang. What does Mrs. Tai think?"

Mrs. Chang choked. She thought that Pei didn't know much about the rules of Beijing, and if she said this, she would take the opportunity to propose to let her be a guest, and then she would teach her the rules well, so that she would respect herself more.

Seeing that Mrs. Chang was a little unable to get off the stage, Pei Shi looked at the maid holding a long box standing on the side, and smiled gently: "Speaking of which, there is still one thing that makes it difficult for me." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" said Mrs. Chang.

"The hairpin for the ceremony, I picked and chose but didn't find a suitable one, I think I don't have enough knowledge, why don't Mrs. Tai accompany me to pick one for a while?" Zhao Qingyi, who was standing on the side, was stunned.

Mrs. Chang smiled when she heard this, waved her hand and said, "Don't pick anymore, my wife and I have a good heart." Biyun ......" The maid who was called Biyun heard this, carefully opened the long box she was holding, and was presenting it to everyone.

It is a pair of gold-inlaid jade Qingyun embraces the hairpin, in the middle is inlaid with a thumb-sized jadeite, emerald green dripping, excellent color, only one foot long narrow surface, carved out of flowers, grasses, insects and birds and other patterns vivid, lifelike, can see the extraordinary product.

"Such a precious thing must be a gift from the Emperor, right?"

Mrs. Chang's face was pale, and she said with a smile: "Mrs. Chang has a good eye, this is still given to me by my mother-in-law when I entered the door, with some thoughts of inheritance, I see that this hairpin is very compatible with the eldest girl, and our two families have decided to marry, and it is natural for her to be given, how about the wife of the in-laws to use this?"

Zhao Qingyi blushed when she heard this. She just looked at this hairpin and became eccentric, the family is rich, and there is never a shortage of gold and silver treasures, but she has never seen such a thing, and listening to Mrs. Chang admit that she is a daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, she can't help but feel a little excited about the days of the Hou Mansion for a while.
