Chapter 129: The County Lord's First Meeting

The small sedan chair passed the alley, passed the hanging flower door, got off the sedan chair outside the Yuehua gate, and was supported by their respective maid rings, and went to the main room in the backyard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Passing through the shadow wall of flowers and wealth, and bypassing the scenery of a rockery waterfall, you will see a small three-room hall, and behind the hall is a row of five main house compounds. The main house is carved with beams and painted buildings, and the corridors on both sides lead to the wing rooms, and there are four or five steps leading directly to the gate.

Hanging on the gate, embroidered with the thick woven Shu brocade thick satin curtain of the three gentlemen of Meilan bamboo, implying a single phoenix and rising sun. A young and beautiful maid raised the curtain and beckoned: "Mrs. Meng, Miss Meng, Miss Xie, the county lord is chattering, why haven't the distinguished guests come in yet." ”

Mrs. Meng walked in the front, the county lord of Qingyuan walked behind, and then Meng Baoying and Xie Yixin, and the group walked in, and the eldest girl of the county lord inside was amber, and personally picked up the Su-style flowing cloud satin embroidered with peonies in the inner room, and welcomed the group in.

Yang Zhaowu was hindered by the fact that they were all female dependents, so it was difficult to follow up, so he had to call Pinglei and order: "You go to Pingyang Hou's Mansion immediately, tell Miss Zeng that Sister Xie is in the county lord's mansion, and let her come over immediately." If you don't invite Miss Zeng, you will stay in the county lord's mansion and don't have to follow me. ”

Ping Lei didn't know that today, Ping Fengyang was intimidated by Yang Zhaowu, and immediately replied: "The little one must invite Miss Zeng to come over!" ”

Yang Zhaowu watched Ping Lei rush away, glared at Ping Feng fiercely, and went to the front yard without saying a word.

As soon as Xie Yixin entered, he saw a red and gold thread sprinkled with gold velvet carpet on the rosewood throne, and a noble lady in her early thirties was sitting on it.

I saw that the head of Minghui County was combed in a high bun, and there was a string of gold silk eight treasures and beads circling on the bun, and a golden phoenix bead tassel was inserted next to it.

She wore a gold-embroidered peony red palace dress, her forehead was as smooth as jade, a pair of big Danfeng eyes, two curved willow eyebrows, her red lips were ruddy and full, her pink face was smiling, and her temperament was noble and arrogant.

After the county lord of Minghui motioned for Mrs. Meng to sit down, Xie Yixin followed Meng Baoying forward to salute, but before the county lord of Minghui spoke, the county lord of Qingyuan first stabbed and sat down in the lower right corner. shouted in his mouth: "Auntie, you invited a distinguished guest today, and you are not called Shangqingyuan!" ”

Lord Minghui's face remained unchanged, and he brushed his hand to make Meng Baoying and Xie Yi feel up, and then asked Pearl to give a jade bracelet as a gift. smiled: "Qingyuan, your Sister Meng and Sister Xie were scared by you when they came to the door for the first time. Come and see, they are all just from Jinling, your cousin grew up in Jinling, and he is good friends with them, and you have come to get to know each other. ”

"From Jinling? Who is Miss Xie? "Recently, Xie Yixin and Zeng Ruoyan have been wandering around the capital, and they are quite well-known, and the county lord of Qingyuan has long wanted to meet, what does Xie Yixin, who robbed Sister Zeng, look like, I just happened to meet them today.

Xie Yixin was blessed: "Back to the county lord, the courtier's daughter is Xie Yixin." ”

The county lord of Qingyuan looked at Xie Yixin, it was really as beautiful as rumored, and he wanted to say a few cruel words, but he remembered what Sister Zeng said: Whoever wants to embarrass Xie Yixin is to embarrass her. I had to swallow back the evil words, and said lightly: "It's very beautiful." ”

When the county lord of Qingyuan spoke, the county lord of Minghui kept looking at Xie Yixin and Meng Baoying. The two girls are of similar height and dress.

But if you look closely, you will find that the sky-blue Su brocade on Meng Baoying's body is completely inferior to Xie Yixin's, and the pink gold velvet brocade is warm and gorgeous. The shoulders of otter rabbit fur are naturally not as rare as white mink fur, and there is no low-key luxury.

On the style of the flowing fairy skirt below, the workmanship of the eight pieces is not at all comparable to the fine beauty of the twelve, and Xie Yixin's twelve skirts are also inlaid with rose-red flowing cloud satin skirts.

Looking at the appearance of the two again, Meng Baoying alone is also elegant and dignified, and she is a beautiful woman, but when compared with Xie Yixin, she lost her color and completely became the foil of Xie Yixin.

Xie Yixin not only has good looks, but also has a kind of noble charm, not like the daughter of a small outsider, but like a daughter carefully cultivated by a high-ranking family. In contrast, Meng Baoying is much more stingy, although she is not afraid to cower, but she is not as calm as Xie Yixin.

Lord Minghui glanced at the jewelry of the two again, and Meng Baoying's head was all ordinary except for the eight-treasure glazed hairpin. But Xie Yi's heart, although there are not many jewelry, but each piece is a fine product, the color of the tourmaline is pure, and the pink tourmaline is very rare, so clear and pure.

The butterfly love flower pearl step shake, absolutely from the hands of the master, by hundreds of small pearls of various colors of the butterfly is already a treasure, not to mention the tassel below the white jade lotus, also inlaid with colorful pearl core, simply ingenuity is unique, beautiful, ingenious.

Even the mutton fat white magnolia hairpin, from a distance, is also crystal clear, and it must be carved from Hetian seed jade. Xie Yixin's original appearance, which was still a little green, has matured a lot against the backdrop of the ruby droplet forehead, and her eyebrows and eyes are even more picturesque.

Lord Minghui sighed in his heart, with such a jewel in front of him, Zhaowu would definitely not look down on Meng Baoying.

Originally, I wanted to find a girl from a scholarly family for Zhaowu, but now it seems that the rules of the scholarly family are strict, and the daughter's family will inevitably lose its charm.

She retracted her gaze and said with a faint smile: "Miss Meng and Miss Xie, please take a seat, I invite you here today to let everyone get close." Mrs. Meng, when I see you today, Miss Meng has a bit of your style back then. ”

Mrs. Meng also found that compared with Xie Yixin, Meng Baoying was inferior in terms of appearance, clothing and jewelry, and when she was upset, she felt that she had saved some face when she heard Lord Minghui compliment her like this.

Mrs. Meng smiled quietly, and said proudly: "Baoying has been familiar with women's rings and women's rules since she was a child, and she is all good at needle chisel women's red, and she has been in charge with my younger siblings since she was only thirteen years old. ”

The county lord of Qingyuan "poofed" and smiled: "Isn't she just a stubborn and old-fashioned female pedant?" What is there to be proud of, the palace maids in the palace, all pretending to be dignified and self-controlled, when they see the saint, they are not like pugs! ”

Mrs. Meng was anxious and angry, and it was not easy to talk back, while Meng Baoying was ashamed and annoyed, with tears in her eyes. Lord Minghui hurriedly reprimanded: "Qingyuan, how did you speak? Miss Meng is your cousin's sister, be careful of your cousin pumping you! ”

The county lord of Qingyuan pouted and said: "I only know that my cousin has a childhood sweetheart, Sister Xie, where did I get a Miss Meng?" ”

Meng Baoying's face was red and white, and she was stabbed to the point that she had no skin, and she had to pretend to be peaceful and atmospheric, and she almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth!

"Miss Xie, are you the only one who has no guesses with Zhaowu?" Lord Minghui asked with a smile.

Xie Yixin stood up and behaved well, and the etiquette was impeccable, Ying Ying said with a smile: "At that time, when I was young, I used to play with the brothers and sisters of the Meng family and the Zhou family. ”

Lord Minghui nodded secretly, it's a pity, such a character and appearance, if it is from a famous family, you can ask for it. It's just that she is the only daughter who lost her mother, and her father is just a foreigner, and she is still a businessman, so she is not worthy of Zhaowu.

Fortunately, Zhaowu only thinks she is a sister, otherwise, it will be enough for her own headache!
