Chapter 9 Cheng Wei has a good brother
"It's irrelevant to the second sister, I've always been like this, I don't know how to please people." Admitting that it is not as good as others, it is always unpleasant, Cheng Wei subconsciously pursed his lips, but he didn't know what he thought, a pair of Danfeng eyes were like broken diamonds, although the clothes were light, pale as a piece of dried plum, at this moment, it suddenly burst out with dazzling brilliance.
Even Han Qiuhua, who has always been steady, couldn't help but be stunned, and then sighed in his heart, it's a pity that his cousin Wei has a pair of excellent eyes!
Cheng Wei didn't know Han Qiuhua's sudden regret, and said seriously: "But the second brother told me that a person's character is taught, but his temperament is innate. Any kind of temperament has merits, if you disguise your temperament for others, you will live a very tired and tiring life, I just need to be myself and have a clear conscience. ”
"Cousin Wei, Cousin Che is right. He is really attentive to you, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, you don't have time to ask me, just ask Cousin Che more. ”
Cheng Wei raised his eyebrows slightly: "Of course, the second brother is the best brother and knows everything, but it's ridiculous that Cheng Tong always wants to snatch the second brother away!" She didn't know that as early as five years ago, the second brother said that only I was his sister, and no one could replace me. ”
Five years ago, it was when Cheng Wei's father appeared with his wife and child.
When the little girl said proudly, her eyebrows fluttered, and she seemed to have no other troubles.
Han Qiuhua couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how could his cousin's heartless temperament be bad in the eyes of people who can really appreciate it?
She suddenly had a narrow mind and asked, "What about Cousin Ya and Cousin Yao?" ”
"Huh?" Cheng Wei was stunned.
Han Qiuhua chuckled: "You just said that Cousin Che only recognizes you as a sister." ”
Cheng Wei was suddenly asked, opened his mouth, and said with some humility: "I didn't say it again." ”
But somehow, thinking of her second brother's words, she couldn't help but be happy in her heart, and at the same time a little ashamed.
Chen Lingyun always scolded her for being domineering, but sometimes she was right.
Seeing this, Han Qiuhua was no longer embarrassed, and stretched out his hand and said, "It's here." ”
In front of me is a two-story wooden building, simple and elegant, and there is a long corridor connected to it. The stone table under the corridor is round and square, and the moonflower plain brocade cloth is spread with water, and it is full of all kinds of pastries and nuts; The stone benches are of different lengths and are scattered, and they are all covered with thick cotton pads with makeup on the eyebrows; Every half a foot or so, a maid stood by the pillar to listen to the instructions, and a maid kept an eye on the brazier so that the charcoal could be added in time.
After seeing this scene, Chen Lingyun's eyes flashed with envy. She lives in Bofu, although she is treated the same as Cheng Wei and others, they are two personal maids and two little girls, but as soon as she comes out, not to mention that compared to the Weiguo Mansion of Yutang Jinque, even the pomp and circumstance of ordinary noblewomen are not as good.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glared at Cheng Wei secretly.
Mother is right, there is no more annoying person than the mother and daughter in the second room.
Cheng Ya picked up her mother's cheapness, not to mention, she also spent all her family money when she went out of the cabinet, her grandmother said that the princess's dowry should not be too shabby, Cheng Ya benefited from the uncle's mansion, but she has been the princess for many years, and she has never seen the slightest benefit in the house, not to mention, but in order to support the princess's face, she has to hand over money every year, which makes it more and more difficult in the house, and she has to live a tight life.
Chen Lingyun was thinking angrily, when Han Qiuhua's voice sounded at the right time: "After walking for so long, my sisters are tired, so let's rest here first, clean my hands and use some tea and pastries." ”
Hearing this, Chen Lingyun subconsciously looked around, and it happened that there was a wooden carved high table on the side, on which there was a blue and white porcelain basin, the basin was filled with water, and there was a little maid in pink clothes half-squatting next to the high table, who was adding charcoal to the brazier with tongs.
She thought that the pink-clothed maid took the hand of the tongs and then handed the basin to herself a little unclean, so she stretched out her hand and washed it in the blue and white porcelain basin, and then picked up the soft towel half on the edge of the basin and wiped it.
Halfway through the action of wiping her hands, Chen Lingyun noticed that the atmosphere was different, and couldn't help but raise her eyes, but saw that everyone was looking straight at her with different expressions.
Chen Lingyun cast an inquiring glance at Cheng Tong on the side.
Cheng Tong's expression was embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
Chen Lingyun was even more confused, but she also knew that she was afraid that something was wrong.
The two girls who had been laughing secretly before laughed softly in unison.
Han Qiuhua glared at the two of them warningly, and smiled at Chen Lingyun like a spring breeze: "I forgot to say that this water is cold, and I neglected the sister of the Chen family." ”
As he spoke, he said to the maidservants who were standing, "Why don't you go and change the water quickly." ”
The maidservants all raised their eyebrows and said yes, and lined up with blue and white porcelain pots, only a slightly younger one showed a little strangeness.
And this team of maids has not yet entered the wooden building connected with the corridor, there is a team of maids from the wooden building out of the stream, settled silently and soon arrived in front of the women, a group of two, one with a glass basin, one with a snow-white soft towel, all half squatting in front of the girls, and said in unison: "Please clean your hands." ”
The clear water in the glass pot is translucent, and there are rose petals floating on it, and there is a faint sweet fragrance.
If it was other precious fragrances, Chen Lingyun might not be able to recognize it, but she was deeply impressed by this sweet fragrance.
At that time, her mother took her back to Bofu not long ago, one day her brother came to visit and gave her a bottle of perfume, she was enthusiastic to share it with her cousins, but it was deliberately broken by Cheng Wei, who was hot-eyed, and what was even more annoying was that Cheng Wei still didn't admit it, and finally turned out a bottle of light orange perfume to show her, saying that this is a "clever nature" of "condensing orange fragrance", and Cousin Che only sent it, and he couldn't focus on the heat!
And this faint sweet fragrance is the taste of "condensed orange fragrance".
Chen Lingyun's face quickly turned red.
At this time, how could she not understand, what Han Qiuhua said before that the water was cold and replaced, it was clearly for her to round her face, and what was placed in front of her was what the girls needed to clean their hands!
Her face was white and red, red and white, staring at the fragrant glass basin and eager to find a crack in the ground to get into!
At this time, there was the sound of water, and then there was a girl's chuckle: "Okay, let's withdraw quickly, this kind of weather, if it is cold, it will be cold, so as not to use it wrong for a while." ”
Chen Lingyun stood up suddenly, her face was so embarrassed that she could drip blood, she glared at the girl who was talking fiercely for a moment, she couldn't hold back any longer, and ran out with her hands in her face.
Cheng Tong has always been good friends with Chen Lingyun, and when she saw this, she wanted to stand up and chase after her, but she usually took the route of weak willow and wind, so she stood up suddenly, hurriedly supported her forehead, and sat back on the stone bench with a weak "oops".
Cheng Yao grabbed Chen Lingyun and stroked her back with her hand, while comforting: "Cousin Lingyun, don't cry, it's not a big deal, who hasn't made a mistake?" It's not good for you to wait for your cousin to see you. ”
The words were reasonable and considerate, and I don't know when several teenagers who were already standing by the plum tree on the other side of the corridor nodded secretly and cast appreciative glances.
PS: On this day, I always feel as if I forgot something, I was lying down and wanted to sleep, and suddenly I remembered that I forgot to update! Ahem, it's understandable that the poor guy who has been sick since he sent a new book and works overtime from time to time has an almost poor memory occasionally
