Chapter VIII
At the end of autumn, everything is adjusted to zero, there is some frost and cold dew in the early morning, Qiu Xi deliberately took out a bamboo blue embroidered tea white cloud pattern short undergarment from the big box, the collar button, sewn with milky white rabbit fur, after Nanqing put it on, it was a little more delicate than usual.
"This is still brought from home, and the embroidery girl at that end is more delicate than the one in the capital, girl, do you say it?" Winter Shadow said while tidying up Nanqing's skirt below.
Nanqing is commanding the little girl to bring the pair of pearl earrings for her, and smiled when she heard this, "No matter how good Lin'an is, it can't compare to the prosperity of the capital, but now I like such elegant clothes, and the embroidery lady in the house does it together, and it is not as good as Lin'an embroidery to my liking. ”
Qiu Xi turned her face and glanced at Nanqing, her eyes flashed with some strange light, she has always been careful, she has long found that the girl's preferences have changed a lot, if the girl would never wear such light clothes before, Nanqing used to like the brightness of the thick ink and heavy color, with the radiance of the rising sun, Nanqing is always the most eye-catching focus of the banquet when she is in Lin'an, but now it has become a light ink painting, the scorching and dazzling light seems to have converged overnight, replaced by a warm and soft look between the eyebrows.
It's okay for the girl to be like this, Qiu Xi thought in her heart, this is the capital and you don't need to be in Lin'an, if the girl is stronger everywhere than before, she will inevitably be excluded in the Earl's Court.
"Hey," Winter Shadow happily agreed, eager to write now.
"I want the slave to say, didn't we have a few embroidery girls at home, just let the young master send it over, where does it cost so much." Winter Shadow thought for a moment and then said.
Nan Qing was slightly stunned, and for a moment remembered the young master in Dongying's mouth and said, "When will he come over." ”
When the old man Song returned to Lin'an and passed by the Min River, he bought a boy by the river, long Sven and handsome, with a thin figure as straight as the silver poplar on the riverbank, the old man Song paid attention to it when he saw it, and asked the traffickers to bring him over, and looked carefully, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a fair complexion, and an outstanding charm on his body, I heard that he was also born in a rich and noble family, but because of an accident, Brother Gongzi fell into trouble and fell into a slave. He didn't doubt him, let people bring him to his side, and made himself a scholar, and later saw that he was very intelligent and sensible, the old man Song was pitiful, and he was worried about his young granddaughter, so he accepted him as a righteous son for his son who died early, thinking that after a hundred years, Nanqing also had a support, his name has not changed, and he is still called Mu Chenliang, but the Song family has changed his name from top to bottom and called him a young master.
Nanqing's memory of Mu Chenliang was a little blurred, he only remembered a pair of indifferent eyes, he was also a Chengyuan three years before going to Beijing, Nanqing sighed lightly.
Qiu Xi saw that Song Nanqing was silent, thinking that she had committed a girl's taboo, Nanqing had never allowed anyone to mention Mu Liangchen in front of her before, so she said, "Girl, although the young master has a cold temperament, but it is really good to treat the girl, the girl has only been here for less than half a year, how many things Lin'an has sent to the house, and the person that the old man looks at is no longer any worse." ”
Nanqing nodded, in his previous life, Mu Liangchen had always kept his oath and tried his best to protect her, in that life, Kang Anping had a tire, and He Jia refused to let her go, and wanted to give her a cup of poisonous wine, but Mu Liangchen worked hard to save her life.
Seeing that Nan Qing was willing to listen, Qiu Xi and Dong Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The two dressed Nanqing, and the three of them went out as usual.
When she arrived at the old lady's house, Kang Shanyao was sitting on the chair below, with a smile on her slightly round face, and when she saw Nanqing coming, the smile on her face was deeper, and she said, "Sister Qing'er is here, and my grandmother mentioned Sister Qing'er to me, saying that Sister Qing'er has a good eye, and the clothes and jewelry that I matched for my grandmother these days have never been on a business trip." ”
Mrs. Kang also smiled, "You, don't praise your sister, you are not much worse, you are all grandmother's good granddaughter." ”
Song Nanqing's eyes swept towards Kang Shanyao, knowing that Kang Shanyao had been the earliest in Mrs. Kang's courtyard in the past few days, and this was to compete with her for favor.
"Grandmother, Arrow has said hello to you." Song Nanqing knew that Mrs. Kang liked this style the most, so she deliberately suppressed her voice and said it softly.
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Kang beckoned her over, "Today, the tailor master of Yunshang Fang is here, and when your sisters come, let them make you a few clothes." ”
"It's still my grandmother who feels sorry for us."
As he was talking, he saw the eldest lady of the big room Cao leading the fourth girl Kang Shanjia, and the second lady leading the fifth girl Kang Shanying to come together, and the fourth room Tang and the seventh girl Kang Shanqing followed behind them like a tail.
Cao is about forty years old, wearing a long gown, a cloud ink skirt underneath, a perennial smile on his face, his eyes are not big, and he occasionally flashes when he looks at people, and he looks like a shrewd woman.
At this moment, as soon as she came in, she first greeted Mrs. Kang, and then asked the eldest girl on the side what the ancestor ate yesterday, and counted the fresh melons and fruits sent over this morning, saying that she would send them to the old lady.
The second lady, Zhuang, pursed her lips and gave her a very disdainful look, then shook the silk handkerchief in her hand and sat on the second chair at the bottom left.
Kang Shanjia glared at Kang Shanyao fiercely, she was wearing a scarlet dress with a large camellia embroidered on her head, the bloom was moving, her face was long and light, a pair of phoenix eyes, her nose was slightly collapsed, but she liked to paint heavy makeup the most, that one look did not learn Cao's three points of sharpness, but was a little nondescript, Kang Shanyao only did not see it, only smiled and accompanied the head.
Kang Shanying is the same age as Song Nanqing, she is the concubine of the second room, she looks like the delicate biological mother, with a small melon seed face, willow eyebrows, long and delicate, looking at the side face with a kind of thin and beautiful beauty.
"Grandmother, with Sister Qing'er, I forgot about our sisters." After Cao finished speaking, Kang Shanying's eyes curved and smiled sweetly.
"You are all grandmothers' sweethearts." Mrs. Kang smiled, "You weird, you have learned to compete with your sister for favor." ”
Kang Shanying's mouth has always been well-behaved, Zhuang's gave birth to two sisters-in-law, this daughter is just a concubine, although she doesn't look down on it, but she has never been sad, sometimes she sees Kang Shanying talking pleasingly, and she also rewards some things.
And Kang Shanying flattered her in front of the old lady and usually fought for her a lot of face, so Zhuang took over and said, "Speaking of which, the cousin has been in our house for so many days, and the sister-in-law hasn't even prepared clothes for the cousin. ”
Song Nanqing glanced at Cao's and said with a smile, "The second aunt's eyes are no more powerful, the eldest aunt has never been less involved in Nanqing's share, but Nanqing is used to wearing clothes over there, so she can't change it for a while." ”
