Chapter 48: Twins

"Whose lady is that? How did you go to the back garden? ā€

Several girls sitting at the Eight Immortals Table under the wisteria trellis looked at Wei Yuan's departing back, their faces full of incredulity. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The back garden is where Chen Qiniang rests, and few people can go there.

"I heard that it is a relative of Mrs. Chen, and yesterday I heard a mother say that Mrs. Chen's niece seems to have come to Yangzhou."

A goose egg face, delicate skin, slender figure, wearing a jade flower-sprinkled smoke skirt, with a flounder rose tied to the skirt, and chuckled between the light of his eyes.

"Yes, Sister Xu also heard about it? It is said that she came from Kyoto, and Mrs. Chen was very tight about this niece, so she didn't receive it today, and she lost her temper in the back garden. ā€

Another girl dressed in a beautiful dress also covered her mouth and smiled, and said as if she was additive, but in fact she said that she also knew about it.

"Sister Shao, what's wrong?"

The girl surnamed Xu, who had a goose egg face, looked at Shao Qingyan's somewhat embarrassed face, changed the topic slightly, and asked with a little concern.

"It's fine."

Shao Qingyan shook his head slightly, gritting his silver teeth secretly, hoping in his heart that Wei Yuan would not be able to hear the gap between her words just now, although her father was the prefect of Yangzhou, his ancestors were all cloth clothes, and now his term of office will expire......

Shao Qingyan's mood was also slightly annoyed, since you are Mrs. Chen's niece, just say no, why hide what you say is just a poor person who was abandoned and returned to Huzhou alone!

"I saw Sister Shao standing with that sister just now, I thought Sister Shao knew that sister."

Xu Yuanjiao pursed her lips and smiled, her tone seemed to be just a casual mention.

"I didn't know each other before, but today I met in front of the garden and had a good conversation."

Shao Qingyan didn't know what Xu Yuanjiao meant, and a shallow smile appeared on her face, as if she was a little shy.

Xu Yuanjiao's father is Xu Chen, the prefect of Huzhou, but her mother's family is the Wu family, a big salt merchant in Yangzhou, and Xu Yuanjiao was sent to the Wu family a few years ago.

Because of the Wu family, Xu Chen and the Chen family also got a little bit of a relationship, and Shao Qingyan also heard his father say that Xu Chen was very likely to be transferred to the Yangzhou prefect this time, so as soon as the two met, they almost had to belittle a few words openly and secretly.

Shao Qingyan's father, Shao Huaheng, was the prefect of Yangzhou during the first emperor's period, and he was not eye-catching in front of today's saints, so he was also very worried about the next transfer at this time.

"Really? After that, I have to bother Sister Shao to help introduce a few of our sisters. ā€

Seeing Xu Yuanjiao speak, the girls next to her nodded in agreement, and immediately became angry.

The Wu family is a big salt merchant and has a generous hand, Xu Yuanjiao came to Yangzhou like the boy who scattered wealth, and won a lot of people's hearts in less than a month.

The Shao family's foundation is already a little weak, although it has been a little better over the years, but how can it compare to the wealthy businessmen who spend money like flowing water?

"Okay."

Shao Qingyan smiled reluctantly, looking at the smile on Xu Yuanjiao's face, she wanted to go up and tear her face, but she had to respond.

There are three states and seven counties under Yangzhou Prefecture, and there are only six counties in one state under Huzhou Prefecture.

Wei Yuan followed his mother-in-law to the back garden.

The flowers in the inner garden are nothing in front of this back garden.

The inner garden is more than just a garden, its area is comparable to the inner garden.

Behind it, there is a row of houses, with green bricks and green tiles, and the orange glass on the windows glows in the sun, which is beautiful.

In front of the house, there is a flower shelf, there are hanging bell begonias, petunias, hundred-branch lotus, wax red, etc., the colors are different, crystal eye-catching.

There is a gazebo in front of the flower shelf, which is entwined with various colored wisteria flowers.

Wei Yuan saw from a distance that there were two maids with combed buns standing inside, wearing autumn-colored robes, and when he saw someone coming in, the maid with a jade hosta on the right greeted him.

With a slender figure, a goose egg face, and a smile before speaking, especially a red cinnabar mole in the center of the eyebrows, there is a bit of the feeling of a jade girl under the seat of Guanyin.

"Lady Fu'an."

The maid first saluted Wei Yuan, the movements were smooth, like a beautiful dance, Wei Yuan was a little dumbfounded, this was the first time she had seen someone else make such a beautiful appearance.

"Please."

Wei Yuan saw that the maid kept her squatting motion, and paused for a second before reacting.

"Lady, Madame has gone to the inner garden, you go to the pavilion to sit for a while, and Madame will come back in a while."

The voice is delicate, like the fragrance of osmanthus in August, with a little sweetness, but not greasy, faintly shallow.

Wei Yuan nodded, his face was not obvious, but he was full of emotion in the face of the Chen family's generosity, in the past, he only heard how those high-ranking officials and marquis enjoyed in ancient times, but now it seems that this Chen family is better than those descriptions.

It's just a little backyard......

The maid's eyes paused for a second on Wei Yuan's indifferent expression around her, and then she politely said to the woman who led Wei Yuan in: "Mom, it's hard work, I'll take the lady over, you go to the teahouse in the inner courtyard to eat tea." ā€

The woman saluted Wei Yuan, and hurriedly retreated with joy in the corners of her eyes.

Eating tea is just a code word from the Chen family, which actually means that you can go down to receive the reward.

In the pavilion, there is a plum blossom-style wooden table, on which are placed some incense boxes, food boxes, and a scarlet velvet carpet is spread on the edge of the pavilion, with a light-colored two-color flower backrest, and a stone blue pillow.

When he got closer, Wei Yuan saw that the two maids in the pavilion turned out to be a pair of twins, no matter how they dressed, behaved, smiled, and voiced, they were exactly the same, and even the cinnabar mole the size of a grain of rice on the center of the eyebrows seemed to be measured by a painter.

The joy of identifying twins almost never came to Wei Yuan.

Because even sisters who look exactly the same, their luck is different, and there are very few people who have similar luck, but there is no one in ten thousand.

It was Zhilan who greeted Wei Yuan just now, and the name standing in the pavilion was Huilan, Zhilan was her sister, and she was born an hour earlier than Huilan.

If you look closely, you will find that Zhilan Yintang is slightly lower than Huilan, not as full as Huilan, but it is slightly modified by the shadow of the pearl hairpin on the head......

Zhilan's luck behind her is a little variegated, gray and yellow are tightly entangled, and there will be some twists and turns in the future, but her eyebrows are clear, her mountain roots are clear, and her blessings are heavy, so she must have a good ending.

There is very little variegation behind Hui Lan, and there are not many waves after thinking about it, ordinary and ordinary.

It's not as twisty and tumble as Zhilan, and the aftermath is heavy.

If the two of them weren't wearing the same clothes, they could still see the subtle differences if they looked closely, especially Wei Yuan, a profession that deals with faces every day, and it was not too difficult to recognize a face.
