On the second day, Yueyao freshened up. led Brother Zheng to ask Cheng for peace. As soon as I arrived at the main room, I saw two girls beside Cheng's side.

The one on the right is Cheng Lizi, the daughter of the Cheng family. Yue Yao is very familiar with her, because she was Ma Peng's wife in her last life. I saw that this woman was wearing a turquoise emerald cigarette shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers, water mist and green grass, and a big bow tied with gold silk soft smoke around her waist. If the shoulders are cut into a waist, the eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and they are very beautiful. And he still looks delicate. Cheng Lizi in memory is bitter and mean, like a tigress. Now I look at the appearance of everyone's ladies. Therefore, appearances are still very deceptive.

The one on the left, Yue Yao also knows, is her cousin Lu Ying, who is ten years old this year. Aunt's daughter. This aunt is a concubine, and her husband passed a year ago, and she couldn't live in her husband's house, so she went to her mother's house. It's a pity that Ma Chengteng has no feelings for this sister, just to prevent others from thinking that he doesn't care about his sister, is indifferent and ruthless, and for the sake of fame, he gave their mother and daughter a place.

However, Deng's mother, who went out to chat with people last night and got a lot of news, came back and told Yueyao that this aunt and cousin were not treated well by Cheng's family.

Lu Ying wore a goose yellow embroidered green persimmon pattern makeup gown today, combed a fallen horse bun, inserted a gold step shake, wore beeswax stone beads, and a pair of red gold inlaid purple pendants fell on her ears. The dress is very rich, but Lu Ying looks average, and she belongs to the kind of people who can't be found in the pile. Plus the age is still young, = one = this = read = novel xstxt dressed like this rich, a little nondescript.

Yueyao stroked her forehead a little, who taught her to dress up. What does this look like!

Lu Ying knew that her uncle was with Yueyao in the afternoon and evening yesterday. She was very jealous in her heart. When she came to Mafu, her uncle went to the court. It took half a month to see me. When I saw her, I just asked casually, and then I ignored her and threw it to my aunt Cheng. It's been almost a year since she came to Mafu, and she's only seen her uncle a few times, and every time it's faint. But I don't want Lian Yueyao to be loved by my uncle like this as soon as she comes. Why are they all nieces, so favoritism. The jealousy and resentment in Lu Ying's eyes can't be hidden from Cheng and Cheng Lizi, and of course, they can't hide from Yueyao.

Yue Yao saw that the look was jealousy? Jealous of her? There is a problem with the brain, no wonder Deng's mother and mother are virtuous, shallow eyelids, and narrow-minded.

Yue Yao was a little disdainful in her heart, but she still had a faint smile on her face and greeted the two. Yueyao's etiquette and rules are impeccable. Even Cheng can't say that it's bad.

Lu Ying couldn't reach the bottom of her eyes with a smile: "Sister Yueyao, I heard that my uncle has invited you to come to the mansion several times. You're all shirked. Why did he come over this time? ”

Mother Deng's face changed. She went to her former sister yesterday to inquire about the news. Mrs. Liu said that this young lady has no rules at all, and she knows that she is talking to Ma Linlin and Cheng Lizi all day long. Now that I look at it, it's even worse than the rumors.

Xiao Ma married a six-rank military attache that day. The civil and military officials of the Great Yuan Dynasty are equally important, but Lu Ying's father got this official position by chance, and his ancestors were farming. Therefore, there are many relatives of seven aunts and eight mothers-in-law. After Lu Ying's father was gone, the concubines and the people of their own family almost swallowed Xiao Ma's dowry. There was no way, Xiao Ma went to his mother's house.

Cheng is not a kind-hearted person, but if her husband wants to keep people, she can't drive people out. But the mother and daughter were completely ignored. So much so that Lu Ying felt very good about herself.

The smile on Yueyao's face did not weaken in the slightest: "I made a vow in front of the Buddha to copy the Book of Filial Piety. That's why my uncle sent someone to pick me up, so I didn't come. Now that the scriptures have been copied, it is only natural that I will come to see my uncle and aunt. After speaking, Ying Ying lay down: "Uncle, it's all Yueyao's." Although there was a reason for the incident, in the end it was to live up to the intentions of my uncle and aunt. ”

What can Cheng say, Yueyao is filial piety, filial piety is greater than the sky. Cheng personally helped Yueyao up: "Silly boy, you are so filial. It was too late for my aunt to be happy. How can I blame you. ”

Cheng Lizi said with a smile: "Sister Yueyao is really filial. But Sister Yueyao is so amazing! I heard that my uncle has been with my sister for a day. My uncle and cousin really have endless things to say. ”

Cheng Shi's face turned cold when he heard this, and he swept Cheng Lizi fiercely. What is this, what is wrong with being an uncle's care for his niece? When such words spread, those who don't know think it's some shady thing.

Cheng Lizi saw Cheng's face at her, and knew that she had said the wrong thing.

Wen Wan smiled faintly and said, "Uncle has been telling Yueyao about my mother's childhood. As soon as I said it, I forgot the hour. ”

Cheng Lizi choked, but she didn't know how to interface. Even if she doesn't believe it, what if they don't tell you.

Cheng said: "Yueyao, your uncle said that the clothes on your body are too thin. I'm going to make more clothes with you. In the morning, I asked the people in the jewelry shop to deliver some fashionable jewelry later. You also pick two pieces. "This is also what Yueyao encountered.

Yue Yao chuckled and said, "Yue Yao, thank you for your care. However, Yueyao has a lot of clothes and jewelry, so she doesn't need to break the bank. "Look at this posture, it should have been made in advance, and it was specially made for her. However, since there are new clothes and jewelry, she is not polite. If you don't wear it yourself, it's also a favor to bring it back to reward people. It's better than being defeated by Ma Yue.

Of course, Yueyao said this to tell the people present that she had clothes and jewelry. If her uncle is willing to give it, she will naturally accept it, and without her, she will not be missing these few clothes to wear. Besides, they are here to be guests, not to ask for things.

Lu Ying's face was not good-looking when she heard this. All her food and clothing over the years have come from the Ma family, isn't Yueyao ridiculing her with this sentence? This dead girl, young and with such a mean mouth.

Cheng Lizi didn't know that Yueyao was talking so arrogantly.

Yue Yao saw that everyone had their own thoughts, and she didn't want Brother Zheng to have too much contact with these women. After talking to Cheng, he asked Duqiu to take Brother Zheng back to Begonia Garden first.

Cheng's family doesn't look down on Brother Zheng'er, an official maid, and this girl treats this person as a treasure. If it's at Ma's house, throw it outside.

Mother Deng looked at the two cousins in the house, but only her daughter-in-law Ma Linlin was not there, which made Mother Deng shake her head in her heart. After thinking about it, I decided to talk to the girl about Cheng's affairs after I went back.

Cheng Lizi saw Cheng's face and smiled: "I have long heard that Sister Yueyao is very famous in Jiangnan. Sister Yueyao, open our eyes. ”

The smile on Yue Yao's face Hearing this, the smile on her face immediately dissipated: "Where is Yue Yao's reputation, it's just a rumor." Just getting started. Presumably Sister Cheng is very famous in the capital! Yue Yao has been away from the capital for a long time, and Sister Cheng has opened Yue Yao's eyes! ”

Yueyao didn't care about sweeping Cheng Lizi's face. Even if she is famous, Cheng Lizi is something, she dares to tell him to perform her talents. When he was a showgirl, it didn't work.

Cheng Lizi's complexion changed suddenly. If you want to win the fame in this capital where many beautiful and talented women gather, you must not only have enough talent, but also have enough background. The Cheng family was nothing in the capital, and if it weren't for Cheng's means, he wouldn't even be able to enter the door of the Ma family. Not to mention, Cheng Lizi has no talent at all, and always wants to marry a rich man.

Although Lu Ying couldn't get used to Yueyao, she didn't like Cheng Lizi either, so she didn't stop her from gloating. I didn't expect this little girl's mouth to be so powerful. Cheng played a round. Yueyao saw Cheng's voice and obediently stopped talking.

At this time, Ma Linlin arrived. Ma Linlin was dressed very brightly this time. The upper body is wearing goose-yellow golden branch lotus half-sleeves, the moon-white main waist, and the bottom is wearing a twelve-piece moonflower skirt with light wormwood green. I don't have a lot of jewelry on my body, which is also because I am still young.

Compared with the three girls present, Yueyao was much lighter. Yueyao didn't say anything about this, and the little girl naturally wanted to dress brightly. If she hadn't been filial piety, she wouldn't have dressed so plainly.

Ma Linlin looked at it from the beginning, then turned around and muttered to Cheng: "Mother, Sister Yueyao is too plain on this body. Let the people in the sewing room make more beautiful and bright clothes for my sister. It's too ugly to dress like this. ”

Yue Yao said softly: "Thank you cousin for your concern, I am guarding filial piety, and I can't wear bright clothes." "Yueyao is very strange, Ma Linlin has changed sex, and she has begun to care about his clothes. Odd.

After a while, the people from Fairview came. Fairview is the largest jewelry shop in the capital. The jewelry inside is finely made, which is deeply loved by the powerful.

Yue Yao looked at the several maids who were rushing in, and each maid had a tray in her hand. Yue Yao's face darkened. Yue Yao sighed slightly in her heart. My mother used to say that my uncle was okay in officialdom, but he never cared about housework, and he didn't know how to be thrifty at all. Often you can spend a lot of money for what you like. Not to mention the Cheng family, he doesn't know how to be diligent and thrifty, how to show off. Now Yueyao understands what her mother means when she says this. You can go to the shop to choose jewelry, and the cost will be much higher if you want the store to send it to your door. It's usually the powerful who are so generous. In terms of my uncle's official position, it is a bit excessive.

The female shopkeeper lifted the red silk on the tray in the hands of the six maids, and the golden jewelry in the room was dazzling. Girls love beauty. The eyeballs were immediately drawn to it. Yueyao is no exception.

Yue Yao looked at so many exquisite and beautiful jewelry, and sighed even more in her heart. Each piece of jewelry like this is worth a lot of money. Now the Ma family makes money with his uncle alone, and the expenses of the four-grade officials are very small compared to theirs, and now the Ma family is completely supported by the old foundation. This kind of spending is unrestrained, and sooner or later the family will be emptied.

Cheng smiled: "Yueyao, you just came, you pick first." ”

Ma Linlin looked at Yue Yao with fierce eyes. Yue Yao smiled: "Yue Yao is the smallest, you can't pick first." Let's let the sisters come first. "Ma Linlin's eyes, maybe they are ahead of me, otherwise they look good with you. She won't touch the mold.

As soon as Ma Linlin heard this, she didn't wait for Cheng to speak, and said happily: "I'll come first." As he spoke, he immediately stepped forward.

Among these jewelry, the most dazzling is a red gold single phoenix hairpin inlaid with pearls, and a crystal lotus hairpin. Ma Linlin chose these two things.

After Ma Linlin finished choosing, Cheng Lizi chosen. And then there was Lu Ying. Lu Ying watched Cheng Lizi hold a red gold hairpin in her hand, her eyes were red and red.

Don't talk about Yueyao now, even Mother Deng has a sudden burst of eyes. Such a red gold hairpin will cost at least two or three hundred taels of silver. That's how a niece picks. The Ma family is not a mountain of gold and silver, is it too generous.

Lu Ying chose a red gold bracelet. The value is similar to Cheng Lizi's. I wanted to pick again, but I turned my head to look at Cheng who was sitting on the top and gave up decisively.

In the end, it was Yueyao's turn. Mother Deng meant to let Yueyao choose two cheap pieces of jewelry at will. Yueyao didn't listen to the girl's words, but stretched out her hand and looked at it carefully in the tray.

The female shopkeeper looked at the pearl bracelet inlaid with walnuts on Yueyao's snow-white wrist, and asked in surprise: "Girl, this bracelet is so beautiful, looking at this carving, it looks like the handwriting of Jiangnan Liu Buti's master." "The bracelet is not only finely made and shining, but this walnut-sized round pearl is also very valuable.

The female shopkeeper began to see Yueyao, and she only thought that she was also a guest, a relative like Lu Ying who came to fight the autumn breeze. Businessmen are all dressed to see people. Yueyao was dressed plainly, and she didn't see anything else on her body except for a pair of pearl hairpins in her bun. The bracelet on the wrist was also hidden by the clothes.

Yueyao deliberately showed the bracelet. Yue Yao knew the eyes of these businessmen, and she didn't want these people to think that she was fighting the autumn wind. There are not many jewelry on the body, but this bracelet is worth a lot of money: "The good eye of the shopkeeper, this is Master Liu's craftsmanship." "It was specially invited by Master Liu back then.

Lu Ying was the first to ask: "Is there anything special about this?" She looked at the pearl and her eyes widened. She also knew that such a large pearl was rare. And how surprised this shopkeeper is, is it very valuable?

Cheng has been walking around in the upper circle for so long, so he naturally knows the reputation of this Liu Buti. Looking at Yueyao's eyes at the moment, there was something weird. This girl, on purpose.

The female shopkeeper was a little surprised, and when she saw Yueyao's appearance again, she said with a smile: "Liu Buti is the most famous jewelry master in Jiangnan, and the jewelry he carved out is extremely finely made, and it is the best of the best." And the look of his jewelry is never repetitive. Many of the nobles in the palace wore his jewelry. However, this master has a strange thing, he only makes two pieces of jewelry a year, and if he encounters difficult jewelry, he can do at most one piece a year. After that, wait for the next year. The girl didn't know that many ladies and ladies in the capital were proud to own a piece of jewelry from Master Liu! ”

Yue Yao smiled and didn't speak. She has four such pieces of jewelry. As the female shopkeeper said, this master does only make two pieces a year. The county officials are not as good as the current management, and Ma has booked them for four years, one a year. Because there is still one place left, others will naturally not be jealous.

After Ma Linlin listened, her eyes looked at the bracelet on Yueyao's hand, and then at Yueyao. The confidence revealed in the eyes was known to everyone present. It's wanted.

But Yueyao didn't seem to understand Ma Linlin's eyes.

Cheng had a headache for his daughter's appearance, and glanced at Yueyao: "Yueyao, you're the only one left, you can also choose a few pieces of jewelry!" "This girl is definitely deliberate, deliberately showing off here. I don't know what to show.

Yue Yao responded with a smile. Go through all six trays of jewelry. Then pick out a mutton fat jade exquisite hairpin from it; 1. Wada white jade hollow hairpin; A pair of pearl earrings. Just when everyone thought that Yue Yao would choose these, Yue Yao chose a gold inlaid bead and emerald soft bracelet.

This gold-inlaid beaded emerald soft bracelet is divided into six sections, with a green ring embedded in the center, and a lotus petal-shaped gold tray in the ring, and an inlaid east pearl. The two sides of the green ring are inlaid with three eastern pearls, which are in the shape of the word "product". The back of the emerald ring is an octagonal hollow backing, which allows the light to be transmitted naturally, and the design is ingenious.

The female shopkeeper muttered secretly, this girl has a really good eye. Among the jewelry, this bracelet is the most valuable, both in terms of workmanship and material. Although it is not as good as the bracelet on Yueyao's hand, it is also unique.
