Chapter 56: Brocade
"Fourth Miss, the county lord of Jiayang is here." In the Chen family's mansion in Kyoto's Prime Minister's Mansion, the little maid ran in in a panic, "But it's a big anger, the slaves can't stop it." ”
"What are you doing, please come in." The woman in the light-colored blue saro skirt settled down, and her head was born gorgeous, with beautiful eyebrows and phoenix eyes, bright and moving.
"Sister Jinjin!" Ye Youlian ran into the door with the corner of her skirt, anxious and crying all the way, "Sister must help me this time!" ”
Chen Jinjin's small and delicate nose tip wrinkled slightly, but he quickly changed his smile, scratched her nose with his fingers, and joked: "What's the matter?" Who dares to provoke our Jiayang County Lord? ”
"It's not that yet!" Ye Youlian's words came to her lips, but Chen Jinzhen pointed to her lips, and heard her voice cold and arrogant: "You all go down." ”
"Yes." A room of servants retreated, the second daughter sat at the table, Ye Youlian did not forget to flatter: "Sister is still thoughtful, sister has to help me this time!" ”
Raising his hand to pour tea for Ye Youlian, while listening to her angry narration, Chen Jinzhen always looked light, "Lian'er doesn't have to worry, it's the right thing to take care of your injuries." ”
"Nope! My sister is the smartest, help me think of an idea to subdue that! Ye Youlian's face turned red and said hurriedly, how could she say that she was coated with horse manure so that her body smelled, but Lu Zhaojin deliberately let her out of the embarrassment, and the strange medicine she gave her had a foul smell.
"I'm ashamed, I was already a bad move when I came back to the door last time, and now I dare to subdue her."
Chen Jinjin's complexion was pale and there was no resentment.
Ye Youlian admired in her heart, no wonder her mother always asked her to learn from Chen Jinyun, this Miss Chen Si's cultivation was really good, if it was her, she would have been angry a long time ago.
"Of course, my sister's plan is foolproof, it was the cheap maid who made a fool of herself at home, so she hooked the second brother." Ye Youlian explained the ins and outs of the future in a few words, and said at the end: "Actually, the second brother regrets that he didn't see it as a chess game, my sister has this skill, and I am not afraid that I can't hook the soul of the second brother." ”
"What nonsense!" Chen Jinjin snorted, his eyebrows were shy, but he wanted to let go, "Then why did I repeatedly ask Xiaoyaotang to invite him, but he didn't come?" ”
"It's not all that Lu Zhaojin, and I got a younger brother to enter the house to learn martial arts from the second brother, and our family is about to become a supporter for her!" Ye Youlian shouted in annoyance.
With a warm smile, Chen Jinzhen had already made it clear what had happened to the Lu family in Yefu in the past few days, and pretended to frown, and said worriedly: "She is so cunning, you are so true, kind and pure, and Mrs. is even more lenient and benevolent, where is her opponent, it really worries me." ”
"Sister Jinjin, you are so good, if you are my eldest sister-in-law, how good it should be!" Ye Youlian grabbed Chen Jinjin's hand and said aggrievedly: "It's all that!" ”
"You don't have to worry, maybe we have something to do." Chen Jinzhen smiled and covered her hand.
"Really?" Ye Youlian was overjoyed, and hurriedly urged: "Sister, don't sell Guanzi, but I'm in a hurry." ”
Chen Jinzhen laughed and sneered: "If you are still so impatient, you will have to be sick." ”
"In a few days, it will be May, and then our Siyi Zhai will not recruit some new people? This time, the sisters of Dona are. ”
Ye Youlian blinked, what does this have to do with the four arts?
Siyizhai is an organization organized by Chen Jinjin to talk about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and exchange daughters' talents, and the people gathered are the daughters of noble ministers or talented women.
And because it is the post of the grandfather's daughter, which woman is not cherished and looked forward to, so her reputation has been in the limelight in three or five years.
At the end of the four seasons every year, Siyizhai will attract some newcomers to join.
Therefore, every May, August, November and February, this is what the women of all families are looking forward to, and it is also the most talked about thing after dinner.
If someone's daughter receives the invitation, she will naturally be overjoyed, but if the noble girl has not received it, she will not be able to raise her head even for a season.
It is still light to be excluded from the circle of noble women, and even be despised by your own relatives.
"Then you are confused, the two sisters of the Gu family and the Fang family should get married this year, don't you want to clear them out?"
Chen Jinzhen smiled faintly, seeing that she seemed to have an understanding, and said: "So this time I plan to send a post to my sisters who are under twenty years old." ”
Became a pro?
Ye Youlian understood in an instant, and laughed, "Sister is so smart!" ”
"At that time, the wives and daughters of the young and powerful people in Kyoto will be in our Siyi Zhai, and only she, Lu Zhaojin, the princess, will be thrown out, I will see what kind of face she will have to show off her power in the mansion at that time!"
Not smiling frivolously like Ye Youlian, Chen Jinjin added tea for her and said: "Where is it so easy to be ashamed of her, you have to rely on your face." ”
"No problem! Isn't it just posting? My sister is free to use it! ”
Ye Youlian patted his chest and promised: "I want to see which family dares not to give me the face of Ye Youlian, the lord of Jiayang County!" ”
"It's so good, when it's done, we will squeeze her out of the circle of noble girls, and remind everyone of her business background."
Chen Jinjin said softly: "When you use some strength in the palace at that time, if you have the help of your wife, you will be able to do it faster, then Lu Zhaojin will not be far away." ”
"I don't want her to bow down! I want her to die without a body! I just want Sister Jinjin to be my eldest sister-in-law! ”
Ye Youlian's arrogant and cold words were not refuted by Chen Jinjin, but instead a conniving and doting smile, "You! ”
"Hee-hee." Ye Youlian was so happy that he chatted for a long time before he was willing to leave, and Chen Jinjin sent him outside the door, and Fang smiled.
An undetectable scornful snort flowed out from the small nose, and Chen Jinjin's eldest maid Qiu Yue stepped forward, "Miss, do you want to prepare fragrant soup for bathing?" ”
"Ingenuity." Chen Jinzhen glanced at her, raised his hand and slapped her, Qiu Yue hurriedly covered her face and knelt down to kowtow to admit her mistake: "Miss is angry, Miss is angry, the slave doesn't dare to guess what you mean anymore." ”
Chen Jinjin raised her eyebrows and ordered: "Very good, go prepare fragrant soup, add more, this time it's too dirty." ”
"Yes, yes......" Qiuyue answered, and heard the voice of a woman like a silver bell like spring water behind her: "The tea set in the house is lost, the summer is approaching, the humidity is full, the door is open, smoke a good incense." ”
The two sides calculated well, Lu Zhaojin didn't have to be idle, and as soon as Aqiao got the injury medicine, he sent someone to find Lu Ping.
Lu Zhaojin, who heard the sweet voice before Ah Qiao passed out, had already verified what he was thinking, and after forcing Ah Qiao to sleep for an hour, he listened to him recount in detail what he found on the purple hoof stepping on the moon, and finally affirmed his judgment.
The only problem now is that she needs some horses to prove it, so she sent someone to summon Lu Ping.
And where Ah Qiao will go after that has to be arranged by Lu Ping.
"Miss, the big housekeeper, the big housekeeper is not at home." Lu Qiao was also puzzled when he returned, "But I have already sent someone to find it, and I believe I will be able to come soon." ”
"yes, got it."
asked Ah Qiao to be arranged in the outer courtyard first, and Lu Zhaojin went to visit Hua Qiao in the next room and changed the medicine for her personally.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
Lu Zhaojin raised his eyebrows, Lu Ping's range of activities is not large, and he is not at home, it is the six shops in Beijing.
Even if it is a banker, he will leave a message in advance, and he will never disappear suddenly for no reason.
"Midori! Hurry up and send someone to inquire if there is a gray pigeon with a green tail and a red beak in the Lu family's pigeon house! ”
"Yes, Miss, there is." The single fast horse quickly came back to Bing, and Lu Zhao stood up with a smile, "Quick!" Hurry up and change your clothes! I'm going to the East Gate! ”
"Miss?" Lu Qi Lu Qiao moved quickly, and when he saw Lu Zhaojin's face flushing with excitement, he said uncertainly: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Lu Zhaojin's eyes were red, and he couldn't speak until he stepped into the carriage, "Third Senior Brother, it must be Third Senior Brother who is here!" ”
