Chapter 55: Borrowing a hand to slap the face
"Mother, how do you think I wear this?"
Su Qianlin arrived at Qinglin Garden early in the morning, and today she deliberately chose a peach-colored smoke gauze skirt, carefully dressed up, and arrived at the eldest lady early.
When Mrs. Su saw Su Qianlin running from afar, she added a smile to her face, and when Su Qianlin entered the room, she deliberately reprimanded with a straight face: "Look, no matter how old you are, you don't have a stable look, like a monkey!" ”
Su Qianlin listened to Mrs. Su's words, stood still, immediately lowered her head, and stuck out her tongue secretly, but the smile on her face did not decrease in the slightest.
"Father and eldest brother are coming back today, Lin'er is happy, naturally she is presumptuous, mother don't be angry!" While speaking, Su Qianlin stepped forward, took the cup in Huanbi's hand, and personally brought it to Mrs. Su.
Mrs. Su looked at her flattering look, and couldn't help but laugh, and her mighty eyes couldn't help but feel a little more pity.
"Look, you gave birth to it!" Mrs. Su turned to the fourth aunt beside her as she spoke, and she was scolding her when she spoke, but she had a smile on her face.
"I was raised by my mother!"
Before the fourth aunt could answer, she was snatched by Su Qianlin, and while speaking, Su Qianlin winked at the fourth aunt and leaned on Mrs. Su's side affectionately.
"You blame me, this little conscienceless!" Mrs. Su stretched out her hand and nodded at Su Qianlin's brow, with a little satisfaction in her heart, this girl is smart and smart, skinny and well-born, naturally she has her own heart, she is also a wise person, and so many years of hard work have not been in vain.
Su Qianlin had a smile on her face, and a touch of sharpness flashed in her eyes, but it was just a moment, and she disappeared quickly, so fast that no one saw it.
"When your father comes back later, you have to restrain this monkey's temper for me, otherwise I will provoke your father and be punished, I don't care." Mrs. Su took a shallow sip of tea, put the cup in her hand back on the table, looked at Su Qianlin, and her face was a little more provincial.
Su Qianlin paused in her heart, the eldest lady didn't deliberately scare her with this sentence, her father was on the march all the year round, a martial artist, and his temper was also irritable and eccentric, and these daughters never dared to behave presumptuously in front of him.
Nodding heavily, Su Qianlin reached out and took the teapot to fill Mrs. Su, with a hint of cunning in her eyes.
Huashang Temple.
Su Qianling sat in front of the dresser, watching Zhihua braiding back and forth on her head through the bronze mirror, listening to the news of Ziye probe, her face was calm and waveless, and a pair of clear water eyes were rippling, reflecting the vitality of the rising sun, and people didn't dare to look away.
"And then the fourth lady went back to Yulin Courtyard?" Su Qianling listened to Zi Ye's detailed return, and her expression was calm and indifferent, but when she heard that Su Qianlin went back at the end, she couldn't help but change slightly.
This early in the morning, Su Qianlin went to Qinglin Garden, just to let her mother see her new clothes, and by the way, to please her?
The corners of Su Qianling's lips were slightly hooked, and a vague smile faded on her face, just lightly brushing her cheeks, and quickly disappeared, and everyone thought it was their own illusion.
Su Qianlin has always known how to grasp any opportunity that can bring her benefits, and now it is not a trivial matter for her father and eldest brother to be in court, she has nothing to do, that is strange!
"You go back first, continue to stare at Miss Four, don't be so tight, don't let people find out."
After digesting the news brought by Ziye just now, Su Qianling waved her hand, and Zhihua sent a pair of silver nudes to Ziye, which was regarded as a reward for her busyness this time.
Ziye accepted the silver naked son and thanked him, saw Su Qianling wave his hand, and retreated humbly, with a little more laughter on his face.
"Third Miss, shall we also go to the eldest lady to have a look?"
Zhiyan handed Su Qianling the soft cloth to wipe her hands beside her, her face sank a little, obviously, she was also a little suspicious of Miss Four's actions.
Turning his face to look at Zhiyan with a little worry on his face, the corners of Su Qianling's lips were slightly raised, a light smile faded on his face, but the sparkle in his eyes was a little more solemn: "Go to grandmother first." ”
The eldest lady is a mother-in-law, no matter when she will not pick her own reason, but the old lady is different, there are so many grandchildren around her, and it is not bad for you to compliment, if you want to get into her eyes, it is still to be able to remember it among the people, and the means that Su Qianling uses to make the old lady remember is to be the first to say hello every morning!
Just opened the gate of the courtyard for a moment, Su Qianling brought someone to greet him, and Liubi waited at the door, watching them approach, a smile bloomed on his face.
"The third lady is really punctual, this meal has just been prepared and is about to be served on the table!" Liubi said as she affectionately took Su Qianling's hand and led her into the courtyard.
During this time, Su Qianling came over to accompany the old lady for breakfast every morning, and this cloth dish was also done by herself, although everyone teased her for rubbing rice on their faces, they were overjoyed in their hearts, during this time, the amount of food that the old lady ate in the morning increased, and her face became more ruddy, here, it is all the credit of the third lady.
Su Qianlin didn't shirk it, followed Liubi towards the courtyard, entered the house, and the table was ready.
Familiar with the chopsticks and plates from the maid's hand, Su Qianling skillfully picked out the favorite dishes for the old lady, the ivory chopsticks touched the dishes, and gently made a crisp sound, not as dull as the bamboo chopsticks, even though it seemed to be out of manners, but it also made the old lady smile.
A pleasant and relaxing breakfast, Su Qianling personally made tea and handed it to the old lady, with a soft smile on her face.
"Old lady, the fourth lady is here."
was chatting with the old lady, Liuli came in from outside, her expression unchanged, and her tone was as flat as usual with a hint of calmness.
The old lady paused, as if thinking of something, and waved her hand towards Liuli: "Let her in." ”
Liuli glanced sideways at Su Qianling, hung his head and took the order and went out of the house.
"Grandmother, my father and eldest brother are coming back today, do you think I'm okay with this?"
Su Qianlin's voice came, and then the curtain opened, and a touch of smart pink floated into the house.
Su Qianling's expression was calm, and the moment Su Qianlin came in, he quickly looked at her.
The peach-colored smoke gauze skirt is ethereal and light, and the milky white belt around her waist binds Su Qianlin's waist that she doesn't hold, and the place where the smoke yarn meets the skin is even more white as porcelain, and the smile on her face is full of joy, which adds a bit of agility.
Eyes withdrew from Su Qianlin, Su Qianling's face suddenly became a little colder, and there seemed to be a few silver needles hidden between her clear eyes, which stabbed at Su Qianlin's chest!
That's right, it was this cigarette gauze skirt that cost the life of a little maid next to the old lady, and she was put on a stubborn hat without knowing it, that is, from that time, her father was a little bored with herself, so that she couldn't get her father's reward when she got married!
Thinking about it, the nerves in Su Qianling's whole body couldn't help but tense, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed quickly between a pair of clear eyes, and it was only for a moment, and it quickly disappeared, leaving only a gentle brilliance.
The old lady looked at Su Qianlin and shook in front of her a few times, and her originally smiling face couldn't help but sink a little, but her face was not too obvious, and she responded vaguely.
Su Qianling looked at the old lady's expression, and sneered in her heart, sometimes she admired Su Qianlin's scheming and cleverness, and sometimes she felt that she was so stupid that it was funny.
The old lady and the mother are different, the mother is still young, for these flowery children are still a little close, the old lady is old, what she likes is steady, she is the same in front of the two, the old lady must not be able to stand it, not to mention, a few days ago came the news that the father was stabbed in the left shoulder by a poisonous arrow, although his life was temporarily saved, the wound has deteriorated a little, the situation is not very optimistic, where can the grandmother still have the heart to see her these?
The corners of Su Qianling's lips couldn't help but hook up, with a soft smile on her face, she looked at Su Qianlin, and her approval was overflowing: "The fourth sister is naturally lovely, and everything she wears is extremely beautiful." ”
Su Qianlin's face quickly flashed with a touch of pride, and then she added a little shyness, and came to Su Qianling's side coquettishly: "The third sister will make fun of me, today my father and eldest brother are back, and the whole country will celebrate, we naturally want to welcome them in fresh clothes." ”
Between speaking, a touch of cunning flashed on Su Qianlin's face, today Su Qianling only wore a plain brocade dress as usual, although the material was of the highest quality, but it inevitably seemed a little dull, and it was obviously incompatible with this joyful atmosphere, now that she said this, the old lady would naturally notice that Su Qianling was so unkempt, according to the old lady's face-loving character, a punishment was inevitable, thinking of this, Su Qianlin's face smiled even more.
His eyes flowed, like a living spring gurgling, and his face was as gentle and calm as usual, but Su Qianling's eyes were filled with a sneer, this fourth sister's mind was really everywhere, why hadn't she seen her like a city before? It's just that if you live a lifetime again, how can you let it happen again!
Lowering her head, Su Qianling moved her cuffs slightly, the corners of her lips slightly provoked a curvature, and a slight smile appeared, and she did not answer Su Qianlin's words, but walked up to the old lady: "Grandmother, this is the herb that Dr. Hu asked to procure, and my mother has already instructed Uncle Li to buy it." ”
The old lady took the courage from Su Qianling's hand, her eyes lingered on the list, and she nodded lightly, thinking about her son's injury, the old lady's heart suddenly clenched, if it weren't for Su Qianling comforting her, she really couldn't eat these days, even if there were a group of doctors in the palace, the old lady couldn't rest assured, which made Dr. Hu prepare in advance.
On the list, a variety of herbs are clearly and carefully recorded and stored, the old lady has a little soft color on her face, the third girl is a careful and steady, such a child is also reassuring to marry, and it will add color to the general's mansion like the big girl, and now look at Su Qianlin's flowers, only the surface of the kung fu has no heart and lungs, and she is suddenly out of breath.
Su Qianlin's face was stunned, she was originally waiting for the old lady to praise herself, but she didn't want to see the old lady's face suddenly change now, and she was a little more flustered for a while.
"Your father is naturally happy to come back, and the whole country celebrates because of the victory, but your father is seriously injured, what are you doing with it!" The old lady snorted coldly, glanced at Su Qianlin with slanted eyes, and her face was full of anger.
Su Qianlin was stunned for a moment, a flash of surprise flashed between her eyes, and the old lady's sudden reprimand was like a thunderbolt from a sunny day, slamming heavily on Su Qianlin's head, making her feel dizzy and confused.
"I ......" Su Qianlin suddenly felt an irrepressible burning heat quickly spread from the bottom of her heart to her face, her originally pink face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, with grievances on her face, she subconsciously wrung the silk handkerchief in her hand, tears swirled in her eyes, and she was about to fall.
Su Qianling looked at Su Qianlin's pretentiousness, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, pretending to be aggrieved to win pity, this is her forte, but whether this trick can work in front of the old lady, it is not necessarily!
"The fourth sister is young, it is inevitable that she will not think about things thoroughly, and besides, she is also to welcome her father and eldest brother, grandmother, don't be angry, how to say that they are back is also a happy event." Su Qianling said, took the tea brought by Liuli and handed it to the old lady, with a light smile on her face, anyone can see that there is a little more helplessness in this smile, and at this time it has become a stark contrast to Su Qianlin.
"Young? The two of you were born together, so why don't you know you're worried about your father? It's just that I don't take it to heart and don't know what to think all day! The old lady said, put the cup in her hand on the table, and the bottom of the cup slammed on the table with a crisp sound, which made people tremble.
Su Qianlin listened to the old lady's reprimand, secretly hated Su Qianling for being too talkative, lowered her head, the hair on her forehead covered her eyes, and secretly rolled her eyes, as if there was a sharp blade hidden in her eyes, and glanced at Su Qianling.
"It's Lin'er who thinks about it, grandmother, don't be angry, I'll change this outfit to help the third sister prepare." Su Qianlin lowered her voice, with a little timidity on her face, looked up at the old lady, quickly retracted her gaze, and involuntarily twisted a silk handkerchief in her hand, a white silk handkerchief, slender and white fingers, and a layer of bright dankou on her nails, which was particularly eye-catching.
Su Qianling's face moved slightly, her eyes touched her nails, and a sneer flashed at the corner of her lips, her parents are sick at home, but all children who have a heart will not be so swaggering, Su Qianlin is bent on how to attract the attention of those powerful sons, where can she take care of this?
"You see that the fourth sister knows that it is wrong, grandmother, don't be angry, it was also a happy day, if you are unhappy, no one in our entire general's mansion will dare to laugh." Su Qianling coaxed the old lady to be happy in her mouth, and a pair of clear eyes flashed at Su Qianlin, which fell on her fingertips intentionally or unintentionally, shocking.
The old lady was teased by Su Qianling, and the expression on her face softened slightly, but she just looked at her eyes flickering, and couldn't help but look at her, her eyes just fell on her hand with a silk handkerchief, and at this look, the anger instantly rose, and slapped down on the table in front of her, so that the tea in the cup spilled out: "Do you know it's wrong?" I don't think she has a heart at all! Look at your hands, your father doesn't know how the injury is, you still have the heart to paint such a scarlet and gorgeous danko, do you want to match your father's injury? With all the time you wasted, you might as well learn more from your third sister! ”
The old lady was really angry when she spoke, if Su Qianlin painted it on an ordinary day, she would have painted it, and the girl Aimei could understand it, but the key was that her own father didn't know what the injury had become, and she still had the heart to spend on it, it was simply heartless!
