Chapter 284: The Weasel and the Chicken
Since it was decided, the third wife did not delay, and was busy with Zhang Luo's arrival at the Fu Mansion tomorrow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lan Xi quit the third master and the third wife and came out of the upper room, along the corridor in the garden, and slowly turned back to the Pearl Jade Pavilion. When I entered the house, I saw that Qin's mother was rummaging through the cabinets with Pillow Moon and Liuyan, and she was very busy. Looking at the kang again, it is covered with all kinds of clothes, and the kang table and dressing table are also full of various kinds of jewelry.
Lan Xi hadn't reacted yet, her eyes were sharp, and she had already seen her, so she hurriedly ran over with a cigarette in her hand, still carrying a piece of clothing in her hand, and said, "Girl, take a look, the slave said that this gown is beautiful, but Sister Zhuyue has to say that the begonia-colored gown is good, the girl should choose by herself!" ”
Lan Xi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, it turned out that the news had already reached the Jewel Jade Pavilion? It's just that, taking another look at Mother Qin, who was carefully selecting jewelry, Lan Xi was very helpless, even if she entered the palace to participate in the palace banquet, it would not be rude.
Sure enough, Liuyan said, "The girl can't be perfunctory this time, when she goes to the Fu Mansion, she has to dress up brightly, although we don't rare them, but we can't let them do it in vain, right?" Let them take a closer look at the character of my girl, and see that they will not regret their death. ”
Who are they, although Liuyan did not say it clearly, but Lanxi did not know. At that moment, I couldn't cry or laugh, and when I looked at Mother Qin again, this time she actually looked like she agreed. Lan Xi couldn't help sighing, knowing that Mrs. Fu's actions in Huzhou and even Hangzhou not only hurt the third wife's heart, but also made a fire in the hearts of the caring people in her house. However...... "Then there is no need to be so deliberate, if they think I care, wouldn't it be inferior?" ”
Mother Qin, Pillow Moon, and Liuyan were all silent, and after a little thought, they also understood that Lan Xi's concerns were reasonable. But...... Some looked at the clothes and jewelry of the full kang unwillingly, and several people were very unwilling, so ...... Haven't they worked in vain?
Seeing the faces of several people, Lan Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "But...... The number of etiquette that should be there when going out as a guest is not saved, and this dress naturally has to take a lot of effort, let's choose it together! Then, he looked at the past with a serious face, in the second half of the year, Lanxi's height has gone up a lot, most of last year's winter clothes are small, and this year I returned to the capital, the winter in the capital is not Huzhou can be compared, so the third wife is very much out of the money to Lanxi to buy several new clothes, plus when leaving Huzhou, Yan's mother sent, a whole two large boxes, now are laid on the kang, all kinds of colors, directly look at Lanxi is very dazzling.
Pillow Moon and Liuyan couldn't help but turn happy again, and hurriedly helped pick it up, and the master and servant talked in a low voice, whether the color of this piece would be too plain, and whether the color of that piece would be too jumpy.
When Qin's mother saw it, she couldn't help but smile, lowered her head and took the silk handkerchief, and wiped the jewelry in Lanxi's big box one by one.
If the third wife wants to go back to her parents' house, she naturally has to prepare carriages and horses, and this matter will be passed through the hands of Mrs. Landa, who is in charge of the feed. Mrs. Lan got the news from there, and it was no secret in the house.
In the embroidery building in the courtyard of Jixiang Zhaixi, Lan Yun heard the little girl's reply, her eyes lit up, put down the needle and thread she was doing, she stood up, collected her dress, and said, "Let's go!" The fifth sister came back, I haven't gone to her yet, I ate a little more for lunch today, a little unrestrained, I went out for a walk before dinner, and just went to the fifth sister's place. ”
In the Pearl Jade Pavilion, Lan Xi and Pillow Moon and Liuyan discussed for a long time, and finally chose the clothes, and then selected the matching jewelry according to the clothes, it was easy. After picking out all tomorrow's clothes, Pillow Moon and Liuyan were busy putting the rest of the clothes back into the box, and the other was putting Qin's mother's polished jewelry back into the makeup box one by one.
Lan Xi sat on the makeup stool, watching them busy, watching the smoke put those jewelry back into the makeup box one by one, a bright vermilion imprinted into her eyes, her heart moved, reached out, took the string of red coral beads like blood, took it in her hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and then wrapped it around her wrist, the beads are quite long, can be worn as a necklace, all of them are polished to be round, the color is bright red like blood, the size and quality are very uniform, it is a few months ago, when she went to Hangzhou to participate in the dragon boat race, One of the red coral ornaments that Geng Xiwu gave her. At this time, wrapping it around her wrist, red lined with snow white, eye-catching and beautiful in an instant, Lan Xi looked at it, and somehow lost her mind, and even the smoke on the side looked at her and snickered.
As soon as I put my things away, I heard a little girl outside the door report that the sixth girl was coming. Lan Xi raised his head from the makeup stool and raised an eyebrow, with interest in his eyes.
Pillow Moon and Liuyan looked at each other, and they couldn't help frowning.
Lan Xi had already smiled and said, "Why don't you invite the sixth girl in?" ”
Lan Yun brought the big girl named Caifeng next to her into the house, and her eyes swept around, and there was a trace of jealousy in her eyes. She is also the pampered daughter of Qingyang Lan's family, even if she is born in a house, she will not have less knowledge, and she naturally sees that the objects in Lanxi's boudoir seem to be inconspicuous, but they are all valuable. The furniture of Huanghuali is all the same, and although the ornaments of the red coral on the Duobao Pavilion are not very large, the color is deep red, which is extremely rare. A pair of bronze candlesticks, I am afraid that it is a thing of the Han Dynasty, and a curtain of beads hanging down from the blue gauze cabinet is full of glittering water spirits and pearls, at this moment, Lan Yun's heart was burned and tormented by the fire of unwillingness and jealousy that has existed in her heart since she was born, how much she hopes that she is the daughter of the third room, and how jealous Lan Xi easily gets. If she is the daughter of the third room, then everything she dreams of is still so far away? No! Of course not!
The desire in his heart was so strong, which prompted Lan Yun to pull his gaze back, take a deep breath, forcibly suppress the jealousy and unwillingness in his heart, and laughed, "The layout in the fifth sister's house is almost so reluctant that my sister is reluctant to take her eyes off, there are so many daughters in our Lan Mansion, no one can match the nobility of the fifth sister." ”
Lan Xi blinked, did not hide the interest in her eyes, and said with a smile, "Where the sixth sister is, she is a girl from the Lan family, and whoever is noble will go." Sister, stop standing, come and sit. ”
Since people intend to show affection, Lan Xi will not hold it, as for the beam that was formed a few years ago, in Lan Xi's opinion, there is really nothing, if Lan Yun can swallow it, she can also treat it as nothing.
Lan Yun went over as he said, sat down on the other side of the kang, and after a while, Pillow Yue personally brought refreshments up, Lan Xi beckoned Lan Yun to take care of himself, and the two chatted gossiping.
Lan Yun was calm, Lan Xi was even more calm, ate half a cup of tea, and the snacks on the plate went to four pieces, Lan Yun felt that she seemed to have eaten too much, and the pastry was sullen in her heart, but Lan Xi still didn't have the slightest discoloration, and never asked her intentions, as if she was really bored and came to visit the door.
However, Lan Yun couldn't help it. (To be continued.) )
