Chapter 20: The Succession Room (6)
"Miss, Madame asked you to go over and choose the materials for this year's winter clothes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The third lady and the eldest lady, the second miss have all passed. Hearing the words of the magpie beside his wife, Fang Mingzhu sat up from the bed and said in a dumb voice: "Xiaohuan, you can go over and take a look for me." Let the sisters pick it first. I have a lot of clothes. You can just add one or two pieces. Hearing his master's voice, Xiaohuan was a little helpless and a little anxious: "Miss, why is your voice more hoarse?" How do you teach me how to walk away with confidence? Besides, this year, Mrs. is going to hold a plum blossom banquet in the courtyard, how can you do it without a few outstanding clothes? The magpie looked at the pale Fourth Miss from the side, and couldn't help but sympathize. Speaking of which, Fang Xiangye's four daughters, this fourth lady is the most pitiful. It's just that there is no child in the wife's belly, but there is no mother when he is born. Xiangye handed her over to his wife for discipline. But a little concubine, I don't think I will have any good treatment, and Mrs. is just a face-saving lady. Fortunately, this fourth lady has always been the most trouble-free, never provokes right and wrong, and stays quietly in her own yard alone, but she has always been safe. It's just such a young lady who keeps to herself, and the third miss often bullies her, relying on her identity as the master's favorite, and she can't get along with the fourth miss everywhere. But Mrs. can't seem to see it, and Miss Ren San can do whatever she wants. The eldest lady and the second lady follow the lady, so naturally they will never have anything to do with the two sisters. Let's just say hello when we meet. In their eyes, naturally there will be no two sisters. The news that Madame is going to hold a plum blossom banquet this winter is naturally what the magpie secretly told Xiaohuan. The eldest lady is seventeen this year, the second miss is sixteen, the third miss, and the fourth miss are all fifteen years old, and it is time for them to discuss marriage. Madame's plum blossom banquet has a very obvious intention. Naturally, it is to choose the future husband for the eldest lady and the second lady, and it is also the meaning of letting the two young ladies show their faces in front of those noble ladies in the capital and get a better name in the future. The third lady and the fourth lady will naturally attend, although the lady will definitely not let them rob the scenery of the two sisters, but if the two young ladies perform well, maybe they will also gain something! It was because she knew the news early in the morning, so she secretly told Xiaohuan. Let Miss Four keep an eye on her and behave well then. The third lady was there, she didn't bother to go over and say, not to mention that Aunt Qian has always been well-informed, that is, Xiangye, didn't she already set a good kiss for the third miss early in the morning? It is said that it is still the Tanhua of Imako. When she learned the news, the lady was very angry! Although the Tanhualang has not yet responded to the old minister, no one should refuse this matter. It's just that the third lady is very unhappy, and she makes angry with the little girl in her house every day. The two eldest ladies scolded her for being hypocritical behind her back.
Thinking like this, the magpie couldn't help but be a little stunned, but was pulled by Xiaohuan: "Sister Magpie, what do you want?" I ask you, did the third lady pick it? The magpie came back to his senses, glanced at Xiaohuan, and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask Sister Mandarin Duck to take out the good ingredients later." Sister Mandarin Duck agreed. "I don't know why, in addition to Mrs. and the eldest lady and the second lady in the eyes of the big girls there, the next is the fourth miss. Almost all of them are naturally willing to provide all kinds of conveniences for Miss Four. It may also be that there is an element of sympathy for the weak in people's nature.
Looking at the colorful brocade in front of him, Fang Pearl only felt that his eyes were a little flowery. But looking at the disapproving eyes of the two sisters, she knew that there were far more good things than that. Of course, it is impossible for her to get past these two sisters, but she can at least pick her favorite and best before the fourth child comes to pick. Looking at the third child's absent-minded and seemingly impatient expression, Mrs. Fang's Jiang couldn't help but feel a burst of disdain. Aunt Qian is also at this level, giving birth to such a shallow thing.
It's just that I don't know what the old man thinks, obviously the fourth child has not been taken care of by his mother since he was a child, and he is also well-behaved and sensible, so he should be more biased. But she spoiled this tricky and willful three girls. Counting it, it should be all the ghost of Aunt Qian. The daughter she gave birth to is not very good, but Aunt Qian herself has a headache even for the Jiang family. Needless to say, the appearance of the flowers and the moon is natural, but she is used to being clever and obedient, coaxing the old man around, and most of the time in a month is spent overnight with her. Because Fang Xiangye values her so much, Jiang Mingli doesn't care about her, but secretly puts some small shoes on her. For example, now, it is clear that the Jiang family does not like to see Fang Zhu, but taking into account the master's affection for her the most, it is inconvenient to make a move to save his face, but his face is ugly.
"Madam, the fourth lady is not in good health, so she ordered me to come over and help her pick one or two to go back. The slave maid knew that she had a bad eye, so the slave maid wanted to ask the lady to allow the eldest lady to choose one or two for our young lady. Hearing Xiaohuan's words, Fang Pearl felt that her nose was about to be crooked. I waited for a long time, but I actually got a few words like this. This fourth child is really rape enough, saying that she is not in good health, but when she comes, let the eldest sister help her choose. In the eyes of the eldest sister, of course she will not choose a bad one. Isn't this obvious that he wants to let the three of them pick up the rest? Fourth, it's hateful. Isn't it that Meng Tanhua in the garden who designed it and met her? So quickly made the heart eye. She was not angry, and when she saw the things that the mandarin ducks and them presented one by one, her eyes couldn't help but shine again. This year, Mrs. is so generous, in addition to the usual brocade, there are also fine furs. Fang Pearl was attracted by the snow-white fox fur material at a glance. I don't know how beautiful this fine fox skin is made into a shawl! Last year, the second lady of the Lin family wore it once at the birthday banquet, and that look, how beautiful it is, how good-looking it is. She saw it at that time, but it was really indescribable envy. But what about envy? Miss Lin Er is the daughter of the Lin family, and her fox skin shawl is said to be made of a white fox hunted by her uncle, General Zhenguo, when he was hunting in the West Sea, and it is very precious. With this fox fur at home, Fang Pearl knew that she would definitely not be able to fight for it. But just when she was full of sadness, she saw that the eldest lady took the lead in picking up the fox skin, and said to Jiang with a smile: "Mother, the fourth sister has always been weak, in my opinion, this fox skin is the most suitable for her!" "What? Fang Pearl wondered if she had misheard. In the eyes of the two sisters, there has never been themselves and the fourth, when will they be so good with the fourth? However, when she saw the eldest lady looking at her with a provocative look, she suddenly thought of a possibility. Recently, because of his marriage, it is said that even his two sisters are a little unhappy. After all, the person he wants to marry is the Tanhua of Jinke! The person who can be designated by the emperor as a flower explorer is naturally outstanding. If it weren't for the fact that he had always been concerned about the Lin family, this Tanhua should be a good choice! They must be jealous of themselves, their father has set such a good family for himself, but he doesn't have their share. When thinking like this, Fang Pearl suddenly felt that she was a little balanced. Plum Blossom Banquet, they want to be in the limelight, of course, even the fourth child has to dress up well, they want to press themselves! The fourth sister is like that, she doesn't look good in white fox skin, what's the big deal? She casually flipped up a silver rat skin, only to feel the touch silky, not happy, just wanted to pick it up, but was squeezed to the side, the silver rat skin took off, but it was the second sister who pulled it away from her hand. "Mother, I've always wanted a silver rat coat, and this piece of material is just right!" Hearing the sweet voice of the second sister, Fang Pearl only felt that a fire rushed up from the bottom of her heart. It's like this every time, as long as it's what she likes, the second sister must grab it before she stops. But looking at Mrs. Fang's Jiang family, she didn't dare to get angry. just laughed with him, gritted his teeth and said, "Second sister's vision is so good!" The silver rat gown is popular this year! Miss Fang Er didn't seem to hear it, and she didn't answer, but she just turned back to the other party's eldest lady Baozhu and said, "Sister, you have helped the fourth sister choose well, you should also choose for yourself?" Fang Baozhu smiled and said, "I've got enough of these fur clothes." I just want a big piece of rice, I don't know if there is any good material this year? Hearing her ask, the mandarin duck on the side hurriedly said, "Why not?" Miss, don't you have that handy? It's still peacock feathers! Fang Zhuzhu glanced over, but saw that Fang Baozhu was holding a colorful big piece in his hand, saying that it was as beautiful as it was. Fang Baozhu took it and gestured on his body, smiling proudly. Look at the leather again, and it's a gray squirrel that can be slightly eye-catching. Knowing that he had no choice, he took the gray squirrel in frustration and said to Jiang: "Mother, I have chosen." Jiang Shi glanced at her, seemed to smile, and said, "Oh, your choice this year is simple." Then there is also a rabbit fur windbreaker here, just leave it to the fourth! Hearing Jiang's words, no matter how stupid Fang Pearl was, she knew that she had been tricked. I couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, I didn't have the heart to stay here for a long time, I pointed out a few pieces of fabric at random, and I no longer looked good or bad, so I pushed my body to leave early.
