The spring light is shining, and the birds in the yard are 'babbling' in the branches. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ruosu had no dreams all night, and when he woke up, the sun was already shining through the slanted window lattice on the rosewood screen of a hundred birds and phoenixes.

When she opened her eyes, she could see dancing dust and smell the scent of flowers.

"Miss, Miss Fifth and the girl of the Wei family are waiting in the flower hall, and the slave maid is waiting for you to wash." Qiaoyun summoned Nishang and Niyue to come in with a copper basin and clear water.

Ruo Su lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and asked, "Today, the female gentleman doesn't have to go to school on vacation, what are the two of them doing?" ”

Although Wei Mingxiang also lives in Mo Yaju, there is still half a cup of tea away from Ruosu's West Wing Courtyard, and Qiao Ruojiao has almost never set foot in her place, so it really doesn't make sense that these two can wait for her together.

Qiao Yun wiped Ruosu's hands with a white brocade handkerchief, and said: "The Chu family came to the house today to officially say goodbye, I heard that Lord Du and Mrs. Hou are here, and the fifth lady wants to take the girl of the Wei family to the front yard to see Chu Shizi's demeanor, isn't this ..... I was stunned to bring you, Miss, with me. ”

It is not uncommon for girls in the boudoir to hide behind screens and peek at men.

Qiao Ruojiao probably wanted Wei Mingxiang to see her future brother-in-law's magnificent appearance!

But what do you do with yourself?

Ruosu didn't think that Qiao Ruojiao treated her as her own.

Qiao Ruojiao is used to being arrogant, and there are not a few young ladies from the family who have been married, but it is rare to find a woman like Ruosu who is proficient in history and erudite. After going to school in the past few days, she almost felt that Ruosu was a prodigy who knew everything.

As a result, his attitude towards her improved slightly.

As soon as she finished washing and dressing, Qiao Ruojiao's impatient voice came, and then Ruosu saw her face that was reluctant to greet her.

"Cousin Su, grandmother thinks that you are weak, so you are exempted from the rules of morning and dusk, and you can't sleep in the sun every day! What time has it been? Qiao Ruojiao's phoenix eyes widened, and her voice was also wide open.

Wei Mingxiang, who followed closely behind her, smiled wryly, didn't say much, but said in her heart: It's really good to have a grandmother who spoils her, if she sleeps until this time in the Wei family, I'm afraid she will be punished by her grandmother for copying scriptures.

Ruo Su let Qiaoyun pick out two pale yellow silk flowers made of amber in her makeup and put them on her double buns, and her little face flushed: "What Cousin Jiao taught me is that I wrote it down." ”

Then, he ate a few bites of dim sum slowly, with a dignified posture, no teeth or no sound, and even the appearance of rinsing his mouth at the end was extraordinarily elegant.

Wei Mingxiang glanced at Qiao Ruojiao, who had long lost patience while sitting on the brocade, and found that Bai Ruosu, who was only twelve years old, looked more beautiful than her.

Between every move, there is charm everywhere, but it is just the right amount of gentleness and loveliness.

She pursed her lips, her thoughts were a little confused, a girl from a down-and-out family like herself, if she wants to marry into a high family, she still depends on chance, just by her ability and appearance, she asked herself if she was not as good as Qiao Ruojiao and Ruosu.

Although Qiao Ruojiao, the fifth lady of the Qiao family, only knows a few big characters, she is a well-connected person, and there is nothing she doesn't know about this thing in the capital.

And Bai Ruosu is familiar with ancient and modern times at a young age, and is very liked by female gentlemen.

But what about herself?

Wei Mingxiang maintained an unnatural smile and put away her thoughts.

The group went straight to the front hall of the mansion where the big house was located, and Lord Du and Mrs. Hou came to the door in person, and Mrs. Qiao naturally wanted to meet them.

Qiao Ruojiao waved away the maid next to her, and lay behind the screen with a familiar car, when Wen Tianyou came to ask for a kiss, she also hid behind and peeked like this.

"Is that really good? What if I find out? Wei Mingxiang has the attitude that more things are better than less, and she is more cautious than Ruo Su in the Qiao family.

Qiao Ruojiao rolled her eyes, glared at her with hatred, lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, no one will know, I bought the maids here." She then snorted coldly, and said, "Even if I am caught by my father and mother!" ”

Her pampered and arrogant casualness made Wei Mingxiang envious.

Ruosu stood in a corner and looked out of the screen quietly, she didn't care about Chu Chen and Qiao Ruoyun's marriage at all, if it weren't for Qiao Ruojiao's troubles, she wouldn't have bothered to come over.

Separated by a distance of dozens of feet, the three of them couldn't hear the movement over there.

However, it can be seen that the faces of Mrs. Qiao, Lord Dudu, Mrs. Hou, as well as Second Master Qiao and Chu are not quite right.

Chu Ji was dressed in a straight shirt of stone blue Hangzhou silk, his face was like a crown of jade, and his posture was straight, he stood beside the governor with a sad face.

Wei Mingxiang had never been to the capital, and she had never seen such a man like this, so she couldn't help blurting out: "That is Chu Shizi?" It's really a jade tree in the wind. ”

Qiao Ruojiao sneered at Chu Ji, and looked at the situation over there and felt that something was wrong: "Where is his cousin Chen!" Cousin Tatsu is much more handsome than him. ”

Better than that guy? What does that have to look like!

I don't know why, Wei Mingxiang's face was a little hot, and she asked again: "He is not the prince of the world, so who is it?" ”

Qiao Ruojiao replied unreasonably: "Chu Ji, the fourth son of the Chu family, the younger brother of the prince." ”

Wei Mingxiang wondered in her heart, the son of the Chu family is better than the other, and it would be good if he could marry such a fourth son.

As far as Ruo Su could see, it was Chu Ji's embarrassed face, as well as the incredibleness of Uncle Qiao and Chu's family, it seemed that everything suddenly became clear at a glance.

She smiled almost inaudibly, and sure enough, Chu Chen would not marry Qiao Ruoyun.

However, this matter still has nothing to do with her.

On the other end, Mrs. Qiao's hand full of green tendons and folds tightly grasped the armrest on the Dongpo chair, and confirmed in an accentuated tone: "It is Chu Sigongzi who wants to marry Sister Yun, not Chu Shizi?" After that, she glanced back at Chu, this kind of thing can be wrong, and she is not afraid of making people laugh.

Mrs. Hou eats fast all the year round, she wore a brown embroidered lotus petal wrapped around the branch pattern of Jinxiang skirt today, and a gilded plum hairpin was simply inserted on her head, her appearance is quite elegant, but there is a taste that does not eat the fireworks in the world.

She smiled faintly and said: "It's true that Si'er wants to marry Sister Yun, last time Mrs. Qiu didn't make it clear, I'm here to accompany the ancestor." ”

Lord Governor of Zhenbei Houdu, no matter what Uncle Qiao and his second sister thought, said bluntly: "I heard that Sister Yun was rescued by my fourth son on the day she fell into the water, the two of them have skin to skin, and it is common sense to talk about marriage, do the second brother-in-law and the second sister have other ideas!" ”

This sentence blocked Uncle Qiao and Chu's like a fish in their throats.

Things have come to this, several big families in Shiqiao Hutong know that Qiao Ruoyun and the son of the Chu family have reached the point of talking about marriage, if they really reject Chu Ji, Qiao Ruoyun's reputation will be difficult to protect.

Uncle Qiao was angry, and the governor was leaning towards the opposition, he really didn't dare to attack, so he could only stare at Chu Shi. It was Chu Shizi who said it was good, how did he become Chu Ji again!

Old Mrs. Qiao's reaction was not as strong as that of the husband and wife, and she sighed and said, "The matter has come to this, so let's settle the marriage." ”

When Chu Ji heard this, his eyebrows suddenly stretched, and he bowed down to Mrs. Qiao and saluted again: "Thank you for the success of the ancestors." ”
