Chapter 60: Radiant
Because of the eldest lady's magnanimity, the old lady has been much more lenient to Zhao Yunzhi in recent days, but it has made Huo Huaqing even more heartbroken.
Her mother would sacrifice her daughter's future in order to gain a good reputation!
Zhao Yunzhi saw Huo Huaqing and was about to say something, but Huo Huaqing had already started crying regardless of it. "Why! Why! That dress should be mine! I don't care, I'm going to take it back, take it back! ”
Zhao Yunzhi had a headache, this Huaqing was really spoiled by her on weekdays, and she didn't even care about her mother's hard work.
"Huaqing! Don't mess around! Zhao Yunzhi shouted in a rare loud voice.
Huo Hua was stunned, for as long as she could remember, her mother had never spoken to her in such a stern tone.
"Mother, are you really, in order to please the old lady, you gave that dress to Huo Lingxi?" Huo Huaqing looked at Zhao Yunzhi with tears in his eyes.
Zhao Yunzhi shook his head, this kid really cares too much about her appearance, and now for a piece of clothing, she even doubts her hard work. said in a slightly low tone: "Huaqing, you are fair, when has your mother ever treated you badly?" The best thing in the house, didn't you choose it first before you released it to others? ”
"Then, why is the mother unusually this time, this is the best time for her daughter to get ahead." Huo Huaqing suppressed some tears, but he was still confused.
"You stupid boy, you think that if you dress beautifully, you can stabilize everyone, but you don't know that people's hearts are sinister, this Huo Lingxi is very lively, you are not her opponent!" Zhao Yunzhi looked at his daughter lovingly.
"Huaqing, you have to remember that everything your mother does is for your good! Huo Lingxi, my mother will eradicate it for you with her own hands and pave your way to the future! Zhao Yunzhi's tone was full of unquestionable firmness.
"Huaqing, I know." Huo Huaqing slowly retreated to the bedroom, and at this point, she only believed that her mother had thought of a good way to win!
Huo Lingxi was about to go out, and gave the clothes to Huo Huaqing, the origin of this thing was unknown, she really couldn't put her mind at ease, Yue Jinyan had just come back from the house, and she went to Huo Lingxi's room.
Seeing that she was holding a box made of precious turquoise, she was also surprised in her heart, this object should be extremely rare, with Huo Lingxi's status, she would not get such a treasure.
"What's in it? This container alone is so extravagant. "Yue Jinyan is also knowledgeable, but out of the nature of a businessman, he is always particularly interested in these things.
"Brother Jinyan is back, this is the grand dress specially given to me by the eldest lady for the state banquet." Huo Lingxi's face was calm, she couldn't afford such luxury.
"Turn it on and I'll see." The eldest lady would have such a kind heart, but Yue Jinyan was a little curious.
I saw that shirt, dazzling, Rao is used to seeing rare treasures, but he was also shaken his eyes.
With such a big deal, if it is said that there is no conspiracy in it, Yue Jinyan really has to doubt his life experience of living for more than 20 years.
The peacock feather is to take the best feathers on the peacock's body and carefully weave them into threads, the number is very small, and the price is naturally expensive. However, this thing seems to be familiar to him, and it seems to be one of his subordinates, and it was sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
What's on the merits?
Immediately, he also made up his mind, he must not let someone like Zhou Yushen with ill intentions frame Huo Lingxi.
"You might as well keep this thing for now, and I'll find out where it came from." Yue Jinyan dropped such a sentence and left without looking back.
Huo Lingxi nodded, this rash startling of the snake is not a wise move.
Huo Lingxi also looked at the clothes repeatedly, and then he vaguely saw that where the gem flashed, some extremely inconspicuous white flowers were wiped away with his hands.
Could it be some kind of poison that harms people?
Huo Lingxi didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly found a doctor to come to check, but the result was unexpected, this white powder is non-toxic, but it has the effect of killing insects, and a small amount is sprinkled on clothes, which is not harmful to the human body.
Could it be that she is really thinking too much?
Huo Lingxi was puzzled, Yue Jinyan investigated, and the informants in the Huo family, the Zhou family, and the Song family all said that Zhou Yushen's behavior was abnormal in the past few days.
first had correspondence with Zhao Yunzhi, and then suddenly encouraged the Song family to pay tribute to a colorful divine bird.
What is the meaning of these strange and strange actions?
Zhou Yushen probably never dreamed that around him, there were also many other people's eyeliner lurking, and the plan he thought was seamless had already been hidden in Yue Jinyan's eyes.
"You said the clothes were sprinkled with a faintly toxic insect repellent powder?" When Yue Jinyan heard this, he felt suddenly enlightened.
Zhou Yushen, it's really a good calculation!
If it was to directly harm Huo Lingxi, Zhao Yunzhi would not be willing to be at her mercy, but this peacock feather is not easy to preserve, and it is easy to be eaten by insects, so it is not surprising to add some medicinal powder.
But the auspicious bird, I'm afraid it won't be able to stand this medicinal property, if it dies on Huo Lingxi, Dugucheng will definitely be displeased and completely disgusted with Huo Lingxi.
Su asked Zhou Yushen to have some ability to drive birds and beasts, and now this strategy is really leaky, but I'm afraid, if it wasn't his whim, Huo Lingxi had been completely calculated.
"Give me this dress, I have a way to deal with it, and on the day of the state banquet, you can wear this dress to go there." Yue Jinyan didn't say much more, such a great kindness, it is better to repay it, how can it be worthy of their hard work?
On the day of the state dinner.
The state banquet was specially held in the palace, and the ministers and their wives and daughters were invited, and it seemed to be a good one.
Although Yue Jinyan does not have an official position, it is not a matter of one or two days for Dugucheng to win him over, so naturally he will not be missed.
Huo Huaqing is dressed gorgeously, wearing a peacock pattern brocade dress with blue clouds and beads, all pearls are the same size, the best East Pearl, one will cost hundreds of taels of silver, but under such a dress, it will not take away her own charm at all, but it complements each other, and it looks more and more bright and moving.
Seeing such a beautiful woman, almost all of the people present were in front of him, and Dugucheng was no exception, he had always heard that Huo Hua's beautiful appearance was beautiful, and now when he saw it, he really lived up to his reputation!
Huo Chengyu sat on the side, taking in the changes in Dugucheng's expression, although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he could only smile and recommend.
Huo Huaqing was naturally satisfied with everyone's reaction, and smiled more and more like a blooming peony, eye-catching.
Just as she was happy, she saw that everyone had already looked away and looked at Huo Lingxi behind her.
What a beautiful woman in full costume!
