Chapter 180: Manzhi
Wan Chun took into account that the clothes were still wet, so he didn't sit down on the sofa, still standing there, watching Man Yi open the wardrobe next to the bookcase, check it a few times, and take out a lilac-colored cotton long cheongsam and show it to Wan Chun: "How is this dress?" ”
Wan Chun stepped forward, gestured at his waist with his hand, and nodded and said, "It should be able to wear it." ”
"Well, this is it." Man Yi smiled and closed the door of the closet and handed the clothes to Wan Chun, "You can change into it here and go out." ”
She was going to wait for Wanchun to go with her, but before she finished speaking, someone knocked on the door outside and called her: "Sixth Miss, the fifth young master has something to look for you downstairs." ”
Man Yi replied and went down, and said apologetically to Wanchun: "Sister Wanchun, I'm really sorry, I'm going to go out for a while first, can you change your clothes here by yourself?" ”
Wan Chun knew that she was a birthday star today, and she must have a lot of things to take care of, so naturally it was inconvenient to trouble her, so she hurriedly said: "Miss Six, although you are busy, I will go over after changing my clothes." ”
Manyi said goodbye to her, went out and closed the door gently, leaving Wanchun alone in the room. Wan Chun unbuttoned the cheongsam on her body, took it off and put it aside, and then changed into the clothes that Man Yi gave her.
She got up and took a picture back and forth in front of the closet mirror, lilac was not suitable for her age, and if she was not careful, she would wear an old-fashioned taste. However, Wanchun's figure is slightly taller and thinner among girls of the same age, and it is better than the white skin and beautiful people.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Wanchun still draped the small cloak of mink fur over her shoulders, folded the changed clothes and held them in her hands, and the person was about to go out, but suddenly heard a squeak behind her, she was startled, and hurriedly looked back, but the door inside was opened.
A woman in a peacock green gown was coming out of the door. Rong Chang's face seemed to be tired, his thin eyebrows flew obliquely, his thin lips showed a little red lip beads, and his ink-splashed black hair was not neatly spread out on his shoulders, lining a face that became more and more white and cold like an ice moon.
She was also shocked when she saw Wanchun, holding on to the door with her hand, and said in a daze: "Who are you?" ”
Wanchun hurriedly lowered her head slightly, greeted her, and said, "I'm Li Wanchun, and I'm here to attend Miss Six's birthday party today, but I didn't know that the eldest lady was also in the room, so I was disturbed." ”
"Li Wanchun?" Zhang Manzhi lowered his eyebrows and read softly in his mouth. Although the presidential palace and the Jing'an official residence are very close, in her impression, the fourth miss of the Li family has never seen each other when she grew up, and she heard that it is because the fourth miss is not in good health, so the family is strictly controlled, and she is not allowed to go out easily. But when I met today, the real person was thinner, but not as delicate as rumored. However, the birthday party is downstairs, what is she going to do in her room now?
She raised her head again and stared at Wanchun quite scrutinically, seeing that she was wearing her own clothes, and seeing that she was still holding one in her hand, she vaguely guessed the reason why Wanchun appeared in her room. At this time, the wind blew the curtains again, Zhang Manzhi's thin clothes naturally felt cold, she walked to close the window, and said, "I can't imagine that there is a friendship between Manyi and you, will the birthday party downstairs be lively?" ”
"Miss Six's birthday is naturally lively." Wan Chun answered her, but there was no wonder in her heart. It stands to reason that Manzhi is Manyi's sister, and there is no reason why Manyi is sleeping in the room on Manyi's birthday. Listening to Manyi's words, she didn't know that Manzhi was still at home, why was this?
She couldn't hold back her curiosity, Man Zhi closed the doors and windows, saw that she was still standing there, and raised her eyes slightly: "Go out after changing your clothes, lest they wait for you in a hurry." ”
"Yes." Wanchun unconsciously agreed, and only after reacting did she realize that she was giving an eviction order, so she took her clothes and said goodbye to Manzhi's slight chin and walked out. Halfway through the walk, I remembered that I was still wearing other people's clothes, so I turned back and said, "My clothes were accidentally dirty, so Miss Six took the eldest lady's clothes and changed them for me, without the consent of the eldest lady, it was really presumptuous." I'll wash my clothes when I go back, and then I'll send them back to the eldest lady. ”
"No, just wear it. I have a lot of clothes, not missing this one. Her expression was calm, and her voice was very calm, but Wanchun still felt very embarrassed, as if she didn't want this dress just for herself to wear it once.
But she was indeed apologic, and only thought that she would buy a new dress and send it to the presidential palace afterwards, so she no longer argued with Zhang Manzhi, and turned around and left.
"Slow," but Zhang Manzhi opened his mouth to stop her again, Wanchun turned his head, but heard her say, "You don't have to tell Manyi that I'm at home after you go out, you just don't have to see me." Also, don't forget to close the door for me. ”
This is even more strange, as far as she knows, Man Yi and Man Zhi are sisters of the same mother, is there such a difference between sisters? Wan Chun asked unconsciously: "Isn't the eldest lady going downstairs to see the excitement?" ”
"What's there to see? No matter how lively it is, it is just a passing cloud, but it will only add sadness to the memories in the future. ”
Her words were as cold as her people, her house.
Wanchun choked her words, she didn't want to be nosy, so she immediately opened the door and went out, closed the door for Manzhi with her backhand, patted her chest, and didn't know what she was afraid of.
Thinking that her brother would marry this woman as his wife in the future, she couldn't help but start palpitating, if the eldest lady would treat the eldest brother with such a cold attitude in the future, then how should the eldest brother finish this life?
She was very worried for a long time, and when she returned to Manyi's room for a while, she was still a little worried, but she didn't feel that there was no one in Manyi's room at this time. Zhang Jingtong didn't see her downstairs for a long time, and I found out from Man Yi that Wan Chun was changing clothes upstairs, and she was still in Man Zhi's room. He secretly said badly, and hurriedly pulled his feet upstairs.
It turned out that he had always known that Manzhi was in the room, but Manzhi's temper has become more and more eccentric in recent years, and he is reluctant to get close to others, even if he is his brother and sister, and rarely sees her smiling face. He knew that Manzhi was making an awkward fuss about the family asking her to marry Li Bool against her wishes, but he was powerless to dissuade and comfort his sister, so he had to let it go. On Manyi's birthday, he was happy for Manyi, and for Manzhi not to be disappointed, so he didn't tell Manyi about Manzhi's presence in the room, and Manyi only thought that her sister was going out to meet friends.
It's good now, Wanchun actually entered Manyi's room. Thinking that Manzhi's human nature is strange and eccentric in the matter of cleanliness, if she sees Wanchun touching her clothes, she will inevitably have a conflict.
He invited Wanchun to come, but he didn't want Wanchun to marry the Zhang sisters, but now he only prayed that Manzhi fell asleep in the room, and he must call Wanchun out as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
