Chapter 4: Concealment of Disguise
After dressing up, Lu Yuanyuan thought about it, and still ordered Yingchun to call the red apricot in. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Young grandma." Hongxing came in to say hello to her, and the moment she bent down and lowered her head, she saw the woman's outfit clearly - neatly combed hair, all diagonally held behind her ears to make a bun, fixed with a white jade jasmine pendant, with the same style of bright moon in her ears, bangs and green silk, raised without wind, graceful, and graceful, racing jasmine and elegant.
It's just that the woman's face is dark yellow, especially the eyes, which are swollen like two walnuts, godless and faintly glowing with blue and black color, but like a flower stamen after a night of wind and rain, the branches and leaves are remnant, crumbling, and the time is not long, revealing an ominous atmosphere.
"Ahem, Red Apricot." Just after saying a few words, his throat itched uncontrollably, Lu Yuanyuan coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Do you think I look like I'm dressed like this?" ”
Hongxing unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, such a Lu Yuanyuan was the young grandmother in her impression - only promised, restrained in doing things for fear of being ridiculed if she made a mistake, and in the end she had to consult her, listen to her and do things, and she didn't look like a master at all.
Sure enough, the inexplicable wrongness before was just her illusion.
She couldn't help but feel a little more contempt for Lu Yuanyuan in her heart, but she still stood up with a respectful and consoling look on her face, walked to the mirror and pretended to look at it a few times, and then shook her head very critically, "The young grandmother is a bride who has just married into the house, how can she dress up so plainly?" Today's garden is full of flowers, competing for beauty and beauty, so beautiful that people's eyes can't be removed, the young grandmother might as well wear the red bottom, pomegranate pattern skirt and then with the shallower bat pattern half-sleeved wide collar and half wall, wait for the slave maid to give you a new dress-up, it must be a person than the flower, dazzling! ”
Lu Yuanyuan looked at her coldly and commanded Yingchun to open the cabinet to get things, nodded slightly under Yingchun's eyes, and sure enough, he saw the red apricot in the bronze mirror with a satisfied smile. She lowered her eyes, so that people couldn't see the thoughts in her eyes clearly, and sat back in front of the dresser with the strength on her shoulders, and she listened to Hongxing ask, "What kind of bun does the young grandmother want?" Just comb one of the most popular fallen horses right now? ”
Lu Yuanyuan replied in a low voice, with a posture of following her for everything, Hongxing no longer asked her about this, but just glanced at Yingchun, who was still buried in the cabinet looking for clothes, and she said softly: "Slave and maid, please don't blame Yingchun." ”
"Huh?"
"Yingchun, she doesn't know the rules, and she prepared such a dress for the young grandmother, but the slave thinks that she didn't mean it, or it would be good to find an old mother who has been in the house for a long time."
'Think',' 'deliberately','or' are just a few vague words, which easily provoked the relationship between her and Yingchun, if she is still the same Lu Yuanyuan who obeyed Hongxingyan and obeyed cowardly and had no opinions, I am afraid that I will really believe her words and hand over Yingchun to an old mother to teach.
It is said that there are some old people staying in this mansion, except for Mrs. Sun's mother, who has some status, the others are all people who were bought back in the early years to be servants and odd jobs. Yingchun is a first-class girl in her room, and she brought her with her marriage, every word and deed symbolizes her face, if she is 'taught' the rules by some rough barbarian women, then what face and status does she have as the master in this mansion?
Hongxing saw that she had been silent, and was about to say something more, but it happened that Yingchun had already found clothes and was coming over, so she had to close her mouth first and serve Lu Yuanyuan to get dressed.
In fact, the clothes selected by Hongxing are really good, the color is very positive, the material is also smooth and close to the skin, very comfortable, especially the pattern on the clothes, pomegranate and many sons, "bat" sound through "blessing", meaning more children and more blessings, for Lu Yuanyuan, the bride, is the best blessing.
It's just that Lu Yuanyuan's figure is already petite, because of the lack of nutrition since the poverty of the family, especially after a few days of illness, she has lost a lot of weight, and she can't support that dress at all, and the red is already picky, if she was in good shape before, her skin is as white as fat, and she can also set off a bit of beauty, but now she has just recovered from a serious illness, a face that is not as big as a palm has a dull yellow complexion, and she looks haggard, and she is pressed down by this dress again, like a corpse wrapped in blood, and the horror is breathless!
Even Yingchun on the side saw that something was wrong, frowned, and opened his mouth to persuade Lu Yuanyuan to change his body again, but he was looked at by Hong Xing, and before she spoke, she stopped in front of her without moving, and took the lead in saying: "Young grandma really looks a lot more energetic when she wears this dress, and it is with this festive color that even the sickness is driven away!" ”
"Is that true?" Lu Yuanyuan raised her arms in a daze, her sleeves were half-faded, revealing her skinny wrists like dry wood, and her wide sleeves fluttered in front of her, as if the wind was pouring into it, and she shivered a little cold.
"Nature is true." Hongxing's face was smiling, very sincere, "As long as you wait for the slave maid to comb your makeup, the young grandmother will definitely be more beautiful!" With that, she stepped forward to help Lu Yuanyuan sit down, and glanced back at Yingchun in warning when he was not paying attention, but Yingchun glanced at her, and was still a little hesitant, so she suddenly closed her mouth and retreated.
Hongxing turned her head with satisfaction, picked up the wooden comb on the table and began to comb her sideburns, not light or heavy, stimulating the scalp like a massage, Lu Yuanyuan moaned comfortably, and felt a little drowsy.
The woman's eyes were slight, and when Hong Xing saw it, she slowed down the movements in her hands more and more, and took out a golden step from the jewelry box and inserted it into her hair bun, and suddenly heard the woman speak, and her hand shook, almost stabbing her!
"Red apricots?"
"Yes, young grandmother?"
"I heard that this girl Yingchun has always appeared in the kitchen these days, do you know about this?"
The red apricot rolled her eyes, and after a little thought, she answered yes.
It's just that if she directly says that she knows that Yingchun's behavior is not in accordance with the rules, but she doesn't mention it, it will inevitably show that she is unkind and scheming, so she is busy and continues: "The slave has seen her in the kitchen a few times, but I think she is also greedy, or she goes to eat those snacks from the cook, and it is not known that the little girl's house, gluttony is not a big deal at all." ”
Lu Yuanyuan sighed, "You just said that you learned the rules, what Yingchun said was also brought in by me, I can't bear her to endure hardship, so you should take her with you." The two of you are big girls around me, that is, they often go in and out together, and those rules and should be watched carefully, you can mention her more, and you don't have to trouble others. ”
“...... Yes, the slave and maid should do their best to explain the things that the young grandmother explained. Hongxing bit her lip unwillingly where she couldn't see, and then put down the comb and said softly: "Young grandma, it's done." ”
Lu Yuanyuan slowly opened her eyes, habitually wanted to straighten up but almost bent her neck because of the weight on her head, she gasped, and hurriedly looked at the mirror, but she was almost blinded by the jewels on her head.
This red apricot, I'm afraid that the hairpin in the entire jewelry box is not a hairpin and the like are inserted on her head, right?!
"What's going on? Why is my head so heavy? Quick, help me get some off! ”
Hongxing saw that she really couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly went up to help, "I'm sorry young grandma, the slave just thought that your dress today was graceful and extravagant, so she thought about combing a makeup that could be matched, but I didn't expect it to be a little excessive, and I asked the young grandmother to atone for her sins!" ”
