Chapter 18: The Great Beauty
Mingzhu, who is not familiar with other families, doesn't need to pay attention to it, and directly loses it with a slight illness, anyway, a family of three has two mouths taking medicine. E-Niang saw that Mingzhu was not interested, and she went a few times, and most of the people who were optimistic about her were not interested in their own family, and most of the people outside knew about her son's situation, who would ruthlessly marry her daughter to a fool, not to mention that she was still a poor fool.
When I was tired, I lost the mood of going to the banquet.
Mingzhu has been secretly instigating Eniang to find a son-in-law for herself. The excuses have been found - my brother is like this, and I don't feel at ease if I don't look at it myself.
The matter of recruiting a son-in-law was the inspiration that Winter Heryuer gave her.
Speaking of this large number of posts, most of the pearls can not participate, but they can't refuse Winterher's invitation. It doesn't mean that Zhu has a good impression of the two sisters, even for the sake of the aunt, he has to agree.
Winterher's invitation was for Mrs. Winterhe's fifth birthday, because it was not a whole birthday, so she didn't make a big deal, but invited a group of relatives and friends to come to the house to watch the play.
As Yu'er's "close friend" (Mingzhu unilaterally believes), Mingzhu is within the invitation of the little girl.
Originally, E-Niang was also going to go, and the last time she added makeup and Yingying got married, she was out of the limelight, but there were still some unpleasant sour words, E-Niang was indifferent, and she didn't want to be jealous and showy, plus she didn't want people to say that she was dragging down the fourth master, so she was tired of going out. Naturally, the pearl went alone with a gift.
To tell the truth, for singing, Mingzhu is not interested in singing at all, most of the dramas in this year are Kunqu opera, babbling and babbling, you and me, there is still a little taste at first hearing, but I get tired of it, and I don't understand what they are singing.
The gift of the pearl is very simple, it is a longevity peach ornament, the full name is the longevity peach ornament for the elderly, birthday gifts, and Fushou Shuangquan living room decoration crafts ~~~~
Exhale~~~ Take a breath first.
The material is resin gold-plated, weighing about 4 catties, which is the most good. Externally, it is known as - from overseas.
It cost her almost three hundred dollars
I felt a little pain in my heart, but I thought that I could earn more money by drawing those tricks every month, and I found a way to recharge, so I was no longer entangled.
When she came to the Winter Mansion, Mingzhu first went to the old lady's courtyard with gifts, said a lot of auspicious words, handed over the gifts, and got a longevity peach made of noodles, and was led to the west courtyard by Yu'er.
The old lady's courtyard is full of wives and maids, and the west courtyard is the world of girls. Yingying married a good family, and the only remaining Yuer in the family is treated even better. The old lady specially paid for a small troupe to sing for these girls. The small courtyard is also noisy and lively.
As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, Mingzhu saw rows of girls sitting in front of the stage, all of them were full of flowers and branches, pink and white, and full of laughter.
Mingzhu suddenly shrank, the color of the red and green in this courtyard, but he was wearing a faint light moon white bamboo lotus pink color cloth shirt was a little abrupt. No way, as an old cucumber with a tender face and green paint, she really can't appreciate those strong colors. So it has always been a small and fresh light and elegant route.
Yu'er half-pushed and half-pulled the pearl to the innermost, and when a girl saw it, she got up with a smile and said, "Come on, sit here, you can see it clearly here." While holding Yu'er's hand tightly, he smiled at Mingzhu, not saying anything, but full of kindness.
Yu'er sat down half-leaning beside the girl and said with a smile, "Good sister, I feel at ease when I see you, thanks to your help today, otherwise I wouldn't know how to entertain so many sisters." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Mingzhu and said, "Sister Mingzhu, this is Aunt Lan, the daughter of Scholar Li's family, she is fourteen this year, and she is two years older than you, so we all have to call her sister." ”
Scholar Li is a cabinet bachelor, and his official residence is from the second grade, so it is no wonder that he has that momentum.
Mingzhu smiled at the girl and nodded shyly, and whispered, "Sister Li." He stopped talking, but looked at the girl in front of him quietly.
At the first glance of her, Mingzhu had a feeling that she couldn't pull out her sight. It's not that she's good-looking, but because of the kind of fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl who shows a little flattery.
Although he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, he is much more mature than those modern girls who wear school uniforms and can't see their curves. He didn't wear a cheongsam, but wore a blue lotus green Han family lady's beautiful clothes, embroidered with a delicate 'swastika' on the placket, and a pair of pointed shoes with pink and blue and white exposed under the pleated skirt. This is a pair of small feet unique to the children of the Han family, Ying Ying is less than three inches.
The hair is not very blue, but it is thick, and the lips are red and small. The white little face was smeared with a light layer of rouge, and it looked very good. The most eye-catching thing is her pair of watery handsome eyes, looking forward to being sultry and charming, like an invisible hook, which makes people reluctant to look away.
With a smile and a smile, she can provoke the words of a group of female companions, and she is a leading girl.
Mingzhu looked at her with a strange gaze. I can't help but have a good impression of her. After all, as the daughter of a Han family, she can still mix so well in this group of Manchurian aunts and grandmothers, which is enough to see the high pole of her ability.
Mingzhu was not surprised that her little feet were wrapped, after all, she lived in a mixed place of Manchu and Han. The Han girls there have to wrap their little feet from an early age. She also used to lie on the wall and watch the cui girl next door being pressed by her mother, and her grandmother held a long strip of burnt yellow cloth and wrapped it layer by layer. Cui Niu cried hoarsely, like killing a pig.
I couldn't stand it after just one glance, and I couldn't help but rejoice that I was a Manchu, so I didn't have to wrap my little feet, and I didn't have to bear the pain of breaking my bones.
She was observing others, and others were just like her, scrutinizing this figure.
Wu Ya Mingzhu is very beautiful, and her slightly immature little face has begun to show her charm, compared with Li Langu's charm, the girl is pure like mountain spring water, although her heart is a tease.
The fleshy cheeks can't stop the clear eyes. A hook at the corner of the mouth makes the deer bump into a foolish laugh. The long eyelashes are as long and curly as the hair of the country next door. The only downside is her size.
As a twelve-year-old girl, her body is taller than the average girl, thanks to the sufficient nutrition in the past six months, the girl is like a small sapling growing up. However, he only cares about vertical development and forgets about horizontal. Here Mingzhu is so inferior that she can't hold her head up in a group of girls.
Compared with Li Langu's turbulent waves, Mingzhu's current xiaolongbao is not even an A-cup. Although he is tall, he is the type that can't figure out the front and back when he lies flat. This is still to be glad that the robes of the Qing Dynasty do not show their figure, and Mingzhu wears a lotus pink robe to wear a straight feeling, not so skinny.
Unconsciously touched the flat chest of the running horse, Mingzhu looked at Aunt Lan's eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Tuyan ~~~~ This kind of rush to be compared to others in this regard again is really uncomfortable~~~~~
Wu Ya Mingzhu said, it turns out that the small breasts will be with you for a lifetime, no! It's something you can't get rid of in a few lifetimes. After all, in her previous life, she was a girl who shouted "I am proud of my breasts, and I am the fabric of the country".
Yu'er just sat down for a while, and was pulled away by other friends, looking at a little girl like a courtesan, Mingzhu was ashamed. sighed in my heart, I haven't seen her for two or three months, and Yu'er, who is two months younger than herself, has become a big girl, and her practice is able to hold the audience.
No matter how big Mingzhu is, she can still hear the whispers of the girls around her. As a freshman in the upper circle. It's a very sour feeling to be treated as a rare animal. Everyone was divided, Mingzhu lowered her head and listened to it sincerely, her heart was just full of helplessness, sure enough, there are many people who are popular, but it is really difficult for her to be an otaku girl and socialize like a flower and butterfly.
Bored, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds and looked at the stage. I saw two maidservants standing on both sides, and a person with gorgeous and dazzling clothes who looked like a noble concubine was in the middle, shaking his head and covering his sleeves and babbling and singing.
The man's head was full of pearls, powdered and greased, and his figure was very enchanting. The eyebrows are looking forward to a thousand styles.
Under the skirt, a pair of big feet wearing old black cloth shoes were exposed, and it could be seen that it was a man.
In these years, the actors are all men. Those famous actors who are famous in the capital are all men dressed as women.
Although Mingzhu looks a little cold, there are still girls who are not afraid of her stinky face to talk to.
Looking at the girl on the other side with her small mouth closed and spit out so many words, Mingzhu was also convinced, this is probably the legendary long-tongued woman who specializes in arching the corner.
"Don't look at her as a high-minded person, in fact, her status is lower than all of us, it's just for the sake of her father, Scholar Li, and she doesn't care about her. Don't go with her, or you'll lose your identity, don't you know? The girl said and stopped to look at Mingzhu, as if she had to give an answer.
Mingzhu nodded perfunctorily, and continued to listen to the secret history of the Qing Palace that this little long tongue had to say about himself in those years.
"Have you heard? She has already seen each other, and she will get married next month, and she doesn't stay at home to embroider her wedding dress but she is like a flower butterfly and throwing flowers and grass around, this is still a Han girl, and also, I heard that her marriage was found by herself, or a son-in-law, it was a shame to die. Isn't it just that you are afraid of marrying and being angry with your mother-in-law? It's just a sneaky trick. Look at her mouth, she will say that the flowers are going to be defeated. In the future, the son-in-law must not be bullied to death by her. It's just a big female bug."
Ha? Mingzhu threw a melon seed into his mouth but fell.
Door-to-door son-in-law? Is that okay?
Mingzhu is like opening the door to a new world, with a face full of shock, mixed with a hint of surprise.
