Chapter 43: A Nest of Snakes and Rats
Xia Yan and Jiang Susu's complexions changed slightly at the same time, and the ladies had already quietly discussed: "What a mountain village girl, I think this bearing seems to come out of the palace." ”
"That's it, looking at it on par with Miss Jiang Er, how can it be so bad."
"She looks good, and she is a little brighter than the second lady."
For the first time, everyone's focus was not on Jiang Susu alone. Jiang Ruan still walked from the front without squinting, his expression did not fluctuate, and he had a smile on his face, as if he was not the first time to come to the Shen Mansion. Such a calm and calm teaching those who originally wanted to see the excitement can't help but be impressed. The round-faced woman had already turned black, but on the contrary, the lady with high cheekbones nodded again and again.
Shen Mingzhen, who followed, was already angry, glared at Jiang Ruan viciously, then walked over and grabbed Jiang Susu's hand, and without looking at Jiang Ruan, he walked into the women's seat.
Xia Yanzao smiled slightly, as if he hadn't seen it, and walked into the table with a smile with Mrs. Shen and sat down. Although Jiang Li has an arrogant temperament, she also has good friends among the young ladies, and in order to deliberately isolate Jiang Ruan, she even dragged Jiang Dan, who is not very concerned about weekdays, away. I don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Ruan was the only one left standing at the table, not knowing how to sit down.
Although the ladies and ladies were amazed by Jiang Ruan's appearance and bearing, all the guests present were familiar with Mrs. Shen, so they naturally had to maintain friendship with the Jiang Mansion. Jiang Fu's current wife is Xia Yan instead of Zhao Mei, and those who know will not take the initiative to break the siege with Jiang Ruan, not to mention that Jiang Ruan's appearance is too prosperous, and the young lady is afraid of being robbed of the limelight when she sits with her. For a while, there was only one person left.
Dew Drop and Forsythia stood behind Jiang Ruan, both a little depressed, thinking that coming to the Shen Mansion as a guest this time seemed to be a guest here, teaching people unwarranted embarrassment.
But at this moment, a crisp female voice came from the seat: "Miss Jiang, sit here." ”
In the middle of the women's banquet stood a cardamom girl, this girl was wearing a blue and white cotton jacket, her complexion was slightly dark, but her face was very beautiful, and there was a faint heroism between her eyebrows. This girl also knew Jiang Ruan in the previous life, her name was Lin Zixiang, and she was the eldest daughter of Lin Taishi today. It is an extremely righteous person, in the last life, Lin Zixiang married the third prince as a side concubine, although Lin Taishi has little real power in the court, but has a pivotal position, Lin Zixiang is not favored after marrying the three princes, Lin Taishi was even more extremely unfortunate after being relieved of his official position by the emperor, the three princes have a beast heart, and the concubines in the house are crowded, and the child in Lin Zixiang's belly was killed alive by a favorite concubine of the three princes, and the three princes maintained the favored concubines, Lin Zixiang was humiliated and took a knife and died with the favorite concubine.
In the previous life, the women in the palace took this matter as a joke when they came idle, Jiang Ruan felt embarrassed for Lin Zixiang in his heart, but such a fierce woman ended up with a tragic death, and she was even discussed after her death, which is really unfair. In the palace banquet of the last life, Jiang Ruan had also seen Lin Zixiang from afar in the banquet of the noble concubines, and the appearance of Lin Zixiang, who was plainly dressed, was unhappy among the gorgeous warblers and swallows, which attracted Jiang Ruan's attention at a glance. They are the kind of people who marry someone who does not want to marry, and are imprisoned in a small cage for the rest of their lives.
Jiang Ruan smiled at Lin Zixiang, walked over and sat down beside her, Lin Zixiang nodded at her, Jiang Ruan said softly, "Thank you." ”
"I just can't get used to seeing them like this." Lin Zixiang said: "The wealthy nobles are always so self-righteous, but they are embarrassed by a little girl everywhere. ”
With such old-fashioned words, looking at Lin Zixiang's serious appearance, Jiang Ruan smiled, and his good impression of her in his heart was a little more.
Jiang Ruan and Lin Zixiang spoke, and Jiang Li secretly hated in her heart. Shen Mingzhen and Jiang Susu said this, and when they saw this scene, they also frowned and said: "What kind of ability does that Jiang Ruan have, Lin Zixiang has to look at the sky with his eyes on weekdays, why do you just talk to her!" ”
Jiang Susu smiled: "Big sister is always so likable. ”
"It's clearly a fox." Shen Mingzhen said indignantly. In a blink of an eye, I saw Jiang Li who was staring at Jiang Ruan, and thought for a while: "Sister Su'er, I see that Jiang Li also hates her, why don't you help Jiang Li?" ”
Jiang Susu was stunned, and then smiled: "Why do you say that, don't have any crooked ideas, the eldest sister has just come back from Zhuangzi, if something goes wrong, her reputation will be damaged, and how will she behave in the capital in the future?" ”
Shen Mingzhen also smiled: "Sister Su'er is the heart of a bodhisattva, but you also score anyone." You see, she deliberately wore this red dress today, isn't it just to steal the limelight from you. I know that you love Su Dan but you wear it so brightly, I think it's a provocation. Sister Su'er, you can't just tolerate it. ”
"This..." Jiang Susu was a little hesitant, and her hesitant appearance fell into Shen Mingzhen's eyes, and she was even more aggrieved, so she said: "Sister Su'er, don't be afraid, I will stand up for you." After saying that, he waved to Jiang Li, who was sitting on the other side, and said, "Sister Jiang Li! ”
Jiang Li turned her head a little flattered, got up and walked to Shen Mingzhen's side. Among these ladies in Beijing, the concubine and the concubine are actually divided into two circles. Although Jiang Li tried her best to please Shen Mingzhen, Shen Mingzhen only made friends with Jiang Susu, and she could only be jealous in her heart. Now Shen Mingzhen took the initiative to greet him, although he knew that Lu Dao must have his intentions, he still responded with a smile.
A trace of contempt flashed in Shen Mingzhen's eyes, but her smile was sweet, and she hooked her little finger: "Sister Jiang Li, I have something to whisper to you." ”
Jiang Li came over with her ear, and Shen Mingzhen muttered a few words in her ear. Jiang Li's expression was a little surprised at first, and then he became hesitant, and hesitantly glanced at Jiang Susu who was sitting on the side. Jiang Susu just lowered his head and drank tea, still with the same smile as usual, teaching people not to see the emotion.
"Sister Jiang Li, can you think about it?" Shen Mingzhen raised her eyes to look at her, and her tone became more and more coquettish: "I did it all for you." ”
Jiang Li was silent for a long time, finally gritted her teeth, and said, "Okay, thank you Sister Mingzhen for your success." ”
Shen Mingzhen chuckled, took Jiang Li's hand and sat down beside him: "Since that's the case, let's say something more." ”
Jiang Li paused, sat down beside her, and the two got together and whispered again.
While doing all this, Jiang Susu sat upright and lowered his head to drink tea, as if he didn't know what Shen Mingzhen and Jiang Li were doing, and only raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Ruan from a distance when Jiang Li sat down, with a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.
But when she didn't want her to raise her eyes, Jiang Ruan seemed to feel her gaze, turned her head slightly, looked at each other, and Jiang Ruan smiled at her. The corners of his eyes clearly showed a hint of a smile, but it made Jiang Susu's back cool for no reason. When he looked at it again, Jiang Ruan had already turned his head, and everything seemed to have never happened.
