Chapter 332: Chrysanthemum appreciation
September is the most comfortable time of the year, the sky is crisp, the wind is light, if you don't want to do those messy things, you can eat wine and enjoy chrysanthemums in the imperial garden.
Cheng Wei found his eldest cousin Han Qiuhua in a group of warblers and swallows.
Han Qiuhua came with the Duchess of Weiguo, Tao, and has been sitting quietly beside her, elegant and low-key.
Cheng Wei walked through the crowd, saluted Tao, and then held Han Qiuhua's hand: "Big cousin, let's go enjoy the flowers together." ”
Han Qiuhua obtained Tao's consent, walked into the crowd arm in arm with Cheng Wei, and asked her in a low voice amid laughter: "I heard that the distant cousin of Bofu is actually ...... But really? ”
Cheng Wei nodded lightly: "Hmm." The eldest cousin also heard about it? ”
Han Qiuhua smiled and didn't say much.
Naturally, she heard about it.
These days, the eldest brother has made trouble several times, and he wants to marry the distant cousin of Huairenbofu, and his grandmother is sick. Grandfather was angry, picked up a stick and beat him, beating the eldest brother so much that he couldn't get out of bed, and the Guogong Mansion has been really lively recently.
"How are my grandfather and grandmother? It's been a long time since I've been to see them. ”
"It's all good, cousin Wei, don't worry." Han Qiuhua was afraid that she would ask more, so she pouted, "Cousin Wei, who do you think that girl is?" ”
Cheng Wei looked over, and a purple-shirted girl not far away was leaning slightly, sniffing a pot of ink chrysanthemums on the flower stand.
She only saw one side, but this face had been repeatedly depicted in her mind since she learned that the second brother had decided to marry her, so she recognized it at a glance, it was the big girl Fang who Han told her to contact more.
Han Qiuhua pulled Cheng Wei. smiled and said: "When I see my future second sister-in-law, I don't go up to say hello." ”
Cheng Wei's feet seemed to have taken root and couldn't lift them. A little embarrassed, he said, "I, I don't know what to say." ”
Han Qiuhua couldn't help but quip: "It's all sisters-in-law who are afraid to deal with their sister-in-law, why did it turn around for you?" Don't worry, Miss Fang will definitely be kind and pleasant when she sees you. ”
Cheng Wei still can't open his legs.
If she is really a sister-in-law who is bent on looking forward to her brother's wife, of course she is fearless. But she had a different mind about her brother and faced her future sister-in-law. In addition to being ashamed and sour, it is more about running away if you want to. She thought, she couldn't see anyone. You can lie to yourself not to be sad.
"Let's go, my eldest cousin will accompany you." Han Qiuhua stretched out his hand to pull Cheng Wei.
It is already a family affair that has been decided, and it is rude to meet it on such an occasion and turn a blind eye.
Cheng Wei was pulled by Han Qiuhua before taking a step. I saw a familiar figure approaching Miss Fang. Immediately afterwards, there was a snap, and the pot of black chrysanthemum fell from the flower stand, and the flower pot shattered.
This movement immediately attracted a lot of attention to look over.
Xu Jiafu was half a foot away from Fang Rong, shook the hem of his skirt, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so careless, not to mention damaging the chrysanthemums for everyone to enjoy, and splashing me with dirt!" ”
Although the pot of black chrysanthemum was broken. attracted everyone's attention, and Fang Rong was still calm. He bowed and said, "I'm sorry, this sister, may I ask which house you are from, and I will order someone to send a new skirt to your house when I turn around." ”
Xu Jiafu sneered: "To put it lightly, my skirt is made by the best embroidery girl in Huaxiuzhuang, can you afford it?" ”
The skirt made by the best embroidery lady in Huaxiuzhuang is indeed expensive, but under the humility and courtesy of the other party, it is a little ugly to say it bluntly.
Cheng Wei was a little surprised.
In her impression, although Xu Jiafu has a detached temperament and often has amazing behaviors, he is not such a mean person.
Could it be because Miss Fang and her second brother are married?
She had been paying attention to Fang Rong just now, and when she saw Xu Jiafu walking over, although the two had no physical contact, the pot of flowers just fell down, maybe it was Xu Jiafu's hands and feet.
Cheng Wei knew that Xu Jiafu knew kung fu, and it was not difficult to do this.
At this time, Cheng Wei couldn't watch anymore, no matter what, Fang Rong was her future second sister-in-law, and she couldn't look at her ugly.
"Sister Jiafu, on August 15, the crown princess rewarded me with a Yuehua skirt, and I haven't put it on yet, I think it's better than Huaxiuzhuang's skirt, will I compensate you for it?"
No matter how good the dress of Huaxiuzhuang is, no one dares to say that it is better than that in the palace.
Xu Jiafu glanced at Cheng Wei in surprise and rolled his eyes: "It turned out to be Sister Wei." She stained this skirt, and it's not you, what is the reason why you pay for her? ”
Cheng Wei suppressed the bitterness in his heart, and smiled calmly in front of everyone's eyes: "Sister Jiafu, doesn't Sister Jiafu know that Miss Fang is my future sister-in-law?" ”
She said, looked at Fang Rong, and introduced: "Sister Fang, this is the sister of Xu Siqing's family, and she is a world friend of my family. ”
As soon as these words came out, many girls remembered.
This Xu eldest girl, it is said that she also discussed marriage with the second son of Huairenbo Mansion, although she has just started, it is nothing, but it is difficult to protect people's hearts and minds.
Speaking of which, when I saw Miss Fang, there were a few people who were not pantothenic.
So young and handsome Zhuangyuanlang, when they rode a horse and paraded the streets, they all hid upstairs and quietly saw it, and now who is not jealous of the good luck of Miss Fang, but hates that his father and mother are not loyal to the Hou Mansion quickly.
"It turned out to be Miss Xu, I'm really sorry." Fang Rong bowed again, and said to the little palace maid who was a little overwhelmed not far away, "Please help me move an empty flower pot." ”
"Oh, good." The little palace maid hurriedly ran to the bottom of the rockery, picked up an empty flower pot and returned.
Fang Rong stretched out his hand to take it, squatted down, carefully moved the ink chrysanthemum out and put it into the empty flower pot, compacted the flower pot with the soil in his hand, and then seemed to play with the branches and leaves of the ink chrysanthemum at will, and then asked the little palace maid to lead her to clean her hands.
The women couldn't help but be taken aback when they looked at Mo Ju, who had put the flower stand on the re-arrangement.
This pot of ink chrysanthemum looks even more durable and windy than before.
The women didn't say anything, but in their hearts, they glanced at each other, and the eyes they threw at Xu Jiafu were either mocking or disdainful.
Xu Jiafu didn't care at all, and pulled the process slightly: "Sister Wei, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's talk." ”
Although Cheng Wei was very dissatisfied with Xu Jiafu's actions today, she always felt a little guilty about her marriage, so she didn't struggle, and she pulled her to a place where there were few people.
The two stared at each other for a moment, and as soon as Xu Jiafu spoke, he went straight to the point: "That big girl Fang is your future second sister-in-law?" I see, it's not better than me! ”
She seemed to be a little annoyed, and reached out to pinch Cheng Wei's cheek: "When I went to your house, you were like a thief, for fear that I would occupy your second brother." Now that you have changed to Miss Fang, you have maintained it everywhere. Sister Wei, you are so favoritous, I don't rely on it. ”
Cheng Wei waved her hand away: "So you can't get along with Miss Fang?" ”
Xu Jiafu rolled his eyes: "It's not that I deliberately can't get by, I'm not afraid that I will behave too well and fall into the eyes of nobles." If I enter the palace, I will have to suffocate to death. There's no way, the girl in the garden is the eldest girl who has a hatred for my husband, and you still don't allow me to kill two birds with one stone and let out my anger? (To be continued.) )
