Chapter 35: Meanness
What Qingyun said is unbelievable.
Who would have thought that Qingyun would be able to heal?
Who would have thought that someone would believe in Qingyun's medical skills, be generous, and give away a thousand taels of silver tickets?
If it weren't for the fact that Qingyun didn't have any silver in his hand, who would be stupid enough to bring a thousand taels of silver tickets to Qixia Temple to go shopping, those things are very cheap, and a thousand taels of silver tickets can't be found at all, and it's for nothing if you take it.
Mu Qingzhi clenched her hand, and the jealousy in her eyes dissipated most of it, leaving only two points.
If it was given by the uncle, Mu Qingzhi would be very jealous, although Qingyun is a daughter-in-law, but everyone is the father's daughter.
The father gave them some things that his daughter's family liked at most, and he also gave them silver, but very little, if he gave a thousand taels to Qingyun, but he didn't pull out a dime for them, where would he put them?
What Mu Qingling gave was different, she and Qingyun were sisters-in-law, although they all called Mu Qingling a sister, but compared to Qingyun, it was still far behind.
They would not want to squeeze out Qingyun's position in Mu Qingling's heart, and besides, they were not uncommon.
Mu Qingxue glanced at Mu Qingzhi, and she also believed what Qingyun said.
How could my father be so stupid and give her a thousand taels of silver tickets, where can there be a place in the house for a thousand taels of silver tickets, this is not to help her, but to harm her, isn't this obviously displeasing the eldest lady?
That day, Qingyun was critically ill, and when the maid asked Mu Qingling to come back, her face turned white, and she couldn't wait to relieve Qingyun's pain, and they could see it clearly.
It's normal to give silver to Qingyun, but it's just a mistake to give a thousand taels for a hundred taels...... What kind of rush does this have to be to make such a big mistake?
Some of them didn't believe it.
But if it wasn't given by Mu Qingling, who would give it to her, besides the uncle and Mu Qingling, who else would give Qingyun silver?
Mu Qingzhi pinched the embroidered handkerchief and said with a smile, "The eldest sister treats you really well, she only has a total of three or four thousand taels at the bottom of the box, and she generously gave you a thousand taels, which is really enviable." ”
Qingyun looked down at the embroidery case on her skirt and did not speak.
Mu Qingzhi and Mu Qingxue didn't speak again.
The carriage gurgled forward, and after an hour, it came to a halt in front of the Bofu.
The maid came and helped them out of the carriage.
Qingyun and the others did not go back to the courtyard directly, but went to greet the old lady.
When I arrived at Chunhui Courtyard, I learned that the three old ladies of the three-room Mu Shangshu Mansion had come to the Bofu.
Qingyun a few fish rushed in, and stepped forward to ask for peace.
The six girls, Ying Yingfu and Qingyun, are wearing a long skirt of rattan and green Luo Mizi, which is particularly eye-catching, even if she stands behind, it cannot be ignored.
The old lady was slightly surprised, she listened to the little maid's advice, saying that there was a noble lady who wished to give Qingyun a skirt, and this skirt was worn on her, which was really good.
The third old lady also saw Qingyun, and she smiled, "I haven't seen each other for a while, and the three girls are getting more and more marked." ”
Qingyun's cheeks were crimson, and she wanted to be modest and couldn't say that Mu Qianran them, but when she thought that Mu Qianzhen hurt her jaw, she said this, not modestly, but jealous, so she simply didn't say anything.
The old lady was really worried that Qingyun would touch the nail stupidly, but fortunately she was not fooled, so she diverted the words and asked about Qixia Temple.
Mu Qingrou wanted to tell Qingyun about the situation, but the third old lady was there, she said that Qingyun lost the face of the Bofu, which was to say that the Bofu did not teach Qingyun well, and tried to hold it back, not mentioning the lottery.
But Mu Qingrou didn't say it, and Mu Qianjiao was there.
Mu Qianjiao smiled, "We met Master Huijing today, and he also talked to Sister Qingyun." ”
The old lady raised her eyebrows and asked with some joy, "What did you say?" ”
Looking at the old lady's happy appearance, the corners of Qingyun's eyes trembled, don't be happy, it's not a good thing.
Qingyun didn't speak, Mu Qianjiao smiled and said, "Sister Qingyun drew lots today, and as a result, she drew two lots, the extremely fierce lottery and the extremely expensive lottery, everyone was very surprised, and Master Huijing said that the two lotteries were drawn because Sister Qingyun's lottery posture was wrong...... ”
The old lady's face darkened.
The faces of a group of maids and women were all red, and their shoulders were almost dislocated.
Qingyun's head lowered slightly, her face was embarrassed and red, and her eyes rolled and rolled.
She raised her eyes and looked at Mu Qianjiao's smug smile, and she smiled too.
You will want to suppress the first to rise, and I will be courteous.
Qingyun turned her head to look at the old lady and said, "Grandmother, I didn't have any money to buy a wooden hairpin, but the lobby sister generously gave me ten taels of silver." ”
When the third old lady heard this, she smiled and said, "Don't have the money to buy a wooden hairpin?" Sister-in-law, if I didn't say you, Bofu wouldn't be so mean, right? Anyway, she is also a serious uncle's daughter, why don't you even have the money to buy a hairpin...... ”
This time, Mu Qianran and Mu Qianjiao's faces turned red.
They wanted to interrupt the third old lady, but they didn't dare.
The old lady's face was originally black, but as soon as the third old lady preached, her face turned blue again.
At this time, Mu Qingxue leaned into the old lady's ear and muttered a few words, and all the anger on the old lady's face dissipated, and she changed to a smiling face.
Mu Qingxue didn't want to help Qingyun, but she knew that after saying it, the old lady would be happy, and it was more important to praise the old lady than to suppress Qingyun.
The old lady said angrily, "You kid, even if you are in a hurry to go out, you will not bring the wrong silver ticket, treat the silver ticket of one thousand taels as fifty taels on the body, Qixia Temple is lively, but they are all small stalls, where to find them, you can't be so frizzy and careless in the future." ”
This time, the face of the third old lady turned blue.
Qingyun nodded obediently, "Grandmother, I made a note of it." ”
Even if the old lady was so happy, Qingyun also knew that the wrong posture of her asking for a sign was in the past for the time being.
Then, Qingyun stood there quietly and listened to the old lady laugh and said, "In the end, it is the daughter of the Bofu, how can she not have silver on her, but she has money on her body, and she can't stick it on her face, right?" ”
The third old lady hadn't suffered a loss in front of the old lady for a long time, and her face was red with embarrassment.
Mu Qianran and Mu Qianjiao complained bitterly in their hearts, in order to save face, no, they told Mu Qingrou and Zheng Shirou of Weibei Houfu about pinching each other again.
The third old lady just broke back some face, and the concubine of Shangshu Mansion went out, but she didn't quarrel with anyone.
The old lady was a little displeased when she saw Mu Qingrou, so she was locked up for three days and copied hundreds of family precepts as a punishment.
Mu Qianran saw that the third old lady's face was a little better, but it was still not enough, so she said, "I heard that Sister Qingyun is married, Zhennanhou chose Sister Qingyun between her and Jiang Xiao, the eldest girl of the Jiang family, Jiang Xiao is scorching, and Sister Qingyun can beat her, which is really surprising." ”
Mu Qianran said, and Mu Qianjiao followed her words, "I have only compared poetry and paintings with Qingrou and them before, and I haven't compared with Sister Qingyun. ”
The two sang and harmonized, Qingyun was a little impatient, and said, "I'm not good at poetry, and I can't compare to two cousins." ”
Mu Qingrou stood aside, holding back her anger, it was clear that Qingyun had made a bigger mistake than her, she was scolded, but she didn't do anything!
Mu Qingrou's eyes rolled, and she smiled and said, "Third sister, don't be modest, you can be favored by the Marquis of Zhennan, you say you don't know anything, who will believe it, the lobby sister They want you to compare with her, you can compare it." ”
When she said this, the old lady's face turned cold again.
My sisters didn't help, but helped an outsider suppress Qingyun!
But Mu Qingrou said so, no matter how Qingyun is compared, it is not just as simple as losing, but cowardice.
The dignified concubine of the uncle's house, even if she loses, she must lose openly!
In this way, Qingyun was driven to the shelves and had to compete with Mu Qianjiao and Mu Qianran.
Mu Qianran felt that this was not enough, and pulled Mu Qingrou and the three of them together.
Given that Qingyun said that she was not good at poetry, she was better than paintings.
Qingyun's headache, she might as well compare it to poetry, but she still has a lot of famous sentences in her mind.
It's not like she doesn't know how to paint just by painting.
Because she can embroider, painting is the most basic skill of embroidery, but most of the embroidery patterns she can draw are in her impression......
She has seen Mu Qianran's paintings, the painting is good, she wants to win, it is really difficult, she must win by surprise.
She understood what Qiu He said, if she wanted to please the old lady, she had to suppress a few girls in Mu Shangshu's Mansion, and she made Mu Qianran lose their face, and the old lady looked at her eyes, and she could pinch out the water.
Like and dislike, the difference is too obvious.
Mu Qingzhi asked the old lady, "Grandmother, let's compare painting, what do we paint?" ”
The old lady smiled, "Just draw what you like, and it's limited to two teas." ”
Everyone agreed that what you like is what you are good at, and it is much fairer than specifying what to draw.
Soon, the maid came over and told her that the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were ready.
Mu Qingrou went to the warm pavilion in a few places.
There were six tables with identical furnishings.
In addition to pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, there is only paperweight.
Paper, which is high-quality rice paper, has two sheets on each table.
Everyone picked a seat and painted with their hearts.
Outside, the old lady and the third old lady were chatting, and the conversation was naturally about the marriage between the Hou Mansion in Zhennan and the Anding Bo Mansion.
The status of the Hou Mansion in Zhennan is extremely high, and it is difficult for the Mu Shangshu Mansion to climb high, but what Qingyun promised was the eldest young master from the outer room, and the third old lady was a little disdainful.
Time was in small talk, and it passed quickly.
Mother Sun reminded, and the old lady nodded, "Let them bring the paintings." ”
Qiu He went to the warm pavilion to spread the word.
