Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Years Ago Are All Good News
Qian Ning raised her eyebrows, very curious about what Meng Ying said about Meng Qian's strange appearance: "I haven't seen my second sister for a few days, I really don't know if she is different." ”
Meng Ying blinked, approached Qianning, and said mysteriously: "I went to Cuiliu Pavilion that day, guess what I saw?" It's actually the second sister who is following the jade school girl red. It was like the sun was rising in the west. ”
Mengqian never loves female red, and the most impatient thing in Su Ri is embroidery to make clothes, rather than letting her embroider flowers, it is better to copy poetry books to be comfortable. When I was a child, it was also because I didn't love female celebrities that Mengqian and Mengying got so close. However, Mengqian doesn't love these things in her heart, and Mengying is lazy, and now when it's time to prepare for family affairs, as soon as Cui's spur, Mengying will do things with her heart, but Mengqian doesn't even want to touch the needle and thread. That's why Meng Ying made such a fuss.
Qian Ning was also surprised: "In this way, in the future, the second sister and the third sister can discuss the preparation of the dowry together." ”
Meng Ying didn't expect Qianning's words to change, but she still returned to this topic, she couldn't help but be a little shy, and raised her fist to hit Qianning: "Sister-in-law, why are you still ashamed of me......"
Qian Ning covered her mouth and laughed happily.
Zhao Luoyan has returned to the twenty-sixth year of the new year, and Chinese New Year's Eve is already approaching, and the Cui family is getting busier and busier. Originally, I also brought Lian Chengmei a piece of management feed, thinking that I would take her with her, so that I could share some of the burden during the New Year. Unexpectedly, after a few days of study, Lian Chengmei was found to be pregnant, although it is now in the first three months, but the first golden grandson of the Hou Mansion and the son-in-law of the world, it is too late for the Cui family to raise Lian Chengmei, and where is she willing to come out to help.
Cui's can only take care of various affairs, and from time to time I occasionally hear that he is busy until the night, but he has never mentioned asking Liu's or Qianning to help.
Lu was a little puzzled: "Mrs. Hou is also strange, I'd rather carry it alone than ask grandma to help." Mrs. Shizi is a daughter-in-law, aren't you? It's really puzzling to watch. ”
Qian Ning held a veil in her hand, her face was not raised, and Yun said lightly: "In previous years, my aunt took care of the New Year's affairs by herself, and no one helped me to come over like this, and this year should be no exception." ”
"But," Lu was still a little dissatisfied, "I also called Mrs. Shizi to study with me before, but now Mrs. Shizi can't count on it, but she doesn't mention grandma, isn't it biased?" ”
Qian Ning put the braided yarn in her hand into Lu Shui's hand, "You also said it, that's Mrs. Shizi, I'm just a young grandmother, it's different, how can it be biased." After saying that, he took a few more ropes of different colors and laid down a rope.
Dew put away the braided vein: "Grandma really thinks about it, there are a lot of gossips outside, you are good, sit in the house, it is the braided vein." ”
"So what's not? Do you want me to run to my aunt and recommend myself? Besides, I'm very useful for these connections, but I have to make them up. Qian Ning carefully picked the rope in her hand, took two wisps of green, three strands of yellow, and four strands of pink, and put the rest back into the basket.
Ordinary people weave a rope that is, three or four strands of rope, and the weave is the appearance of a twist, but Qianning is not, at least six colors, and there are many patterns of weaving, on a wind, in addition to the whiskers left below, the upper side will be made with beads, pendants, etc.
Dew picked up the colored rope that was put back in the basket and smoothed it out: "Grandma is thinking about how to make the selected ornaments?" "Qianning has a habit of making some lines whenever she starts to design, one is to choose the color matching, and the other is to seek some inspiration.
Qian Ning flexibly played the veil in her hand and smiled: "It's okay, but the main thing is not for this, but for the courtesy." ”
"Grandma is giving it away?" Dew was a little surprised, obviously unexpected.
"That's right," Qian Ning raised a small section of the vein, looking at the sun to see if the color matching looked good, "Lord Wan and Lord Ting often send letters, and those little gadgets, I also repay the favor." Besides, their family affairs have just been decided, and my gift is also deserved. ”
Perhaps taking advantage of the festive atmosphere of the New Year, King An's Mansion and Wendingbo's Mansion, the Cui family coincidentally announced the marriage contract, which caused a boil in the capital for a while. Thinking about it, the hot Anwang Mansion, the noble princess, just quietly fell to the people. Especially these two families, they are not very noble in the capital, the Cui family is easy to say, at least Master Cui has a smooth career, and Wen Dingbo said that it is the uncle's mansion, but in fact, there is nothing except a skin. How can a person from such a background actually get two young women who are the most noble in addition to the princess? There are those who can't eat grapes and say that the grapes are sour, saying that they knew that the vision of the palace was so low, and they also had the courage to step forward, and more to inquire about Fan Tao and Cui Liang, the two quasi-county horses, to see where the sacredness was. As a result, the two sons became famous in the capital.
In contrast, the two young ladies of the Yonglie Marquis Mansion, Mengqian and Mengying's marriage, are unknown. It was also before the New Year's Festival, the Hou Mansion exchanged Geng posts with the Chen family and the Li family, and then combined the eight characters.
Cui's was already busy with the New Year, and he had to divide his energy to manage the marriage between Mengqian and Mengying, so he was so busy that his body was on fire, and the bubbles on his mouth stopped after they grew, so he was busy until midnight.
However, this matter has nothing to do with Qianning. Since the snow banquet, Song Wan did not invite Qianning to the palace as a guest because she wanted to marry, but the letters never stopped, and she also sent her own embroidered small purse and handkerchief, although it is not as delicate as the needlework, but after all, it is from the hand of the county lord, and Qianning should return the gift with affection and reason.
Qian Ning looked at the sun for a while, and felt that the color was quite pleasing to the eye, so she put it down, opened the jewelry box again, and selected the pendant tied to it from it.
When Zhao Luoyan entered the door, what he saw was Qianning's concentration on choosing the pendant. Lowering his head, pursing his lips, revealing a touch of snow-white neck, coupled with his smart fingers, Zhao Luoyan inexplicably felt a sense of tranquility.
It was still Lu Shui who saw Zhao Luoyan first, and hurriedly stood up: "Shizi." ”
Qian Ning raised her head, put the work in her hand into the basket, and got up to salute: "I didn't know that my husband was coming, it was rude." ”
Zhao Luoyan waved his hand and motioned for Qianning to get up, while he took a few steps forward, picked up the yarn in the basket, and looked at it carefully: "I didn't know you had such a skill, this yarn looks much more exquisite than what you usually see." ”
Qian Ning leaned over and said: "I also pass the time, the so-called can make perfect, the more you do, the better it is." ”
Zhao Luoyan just looked at it casually, put it back and still sat on the main seat: "I came back from the academy and brought you some gifts, but I haven't had time to bring them over." After speaking, let the little guy take the little clay figurine over, a group of clay figurines, with different expressions, some carrying water, some juggling, and some walking dogs, although the carving is not very exquisite, but it is better to be close to life, and it is interesting to see.
Qian Ning ordered Lu to accept it, and thanked: "Thank you for the gift of the prince." ”
Zhao Luoyan picked up the teacup and ate tea, "If you like it, it's fine." ”
In addition to asking for peace from the Cui family and the Tian family, this was the first time Zhao Luoyan had been alone with Qianning since he came back, and Qianning was not in a hurry to speak, but just sat quietly. For a while, the two were speechless.
I thought that I wouldn't meet, Qianning should be very happy to have arrived, but I didn't expect Qianning to be so calm, Zhao Luoyan couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, coughed, and said: "I'm ready for the New Year, is the lady also going to make some new clothes and new jewelry?" ”
