Next week, the Qingyun list ~o(n_n)o~ I hope everyone will vote for more chayexschayexs.collection~
After entering Changhe Hall, even Ye Yuanzhou was much more restrained than before, and followed Ye Chengli honestly.
Several cousins were also there, and when they saw Ye Yuanzhou, they nodded with a smile, but they were not very enthusiastic.
The three rooms and one vein are all concubines, and because Ye Chengli has rarely returned to Beijing during his tenure, he has little contact with the people in the long room and the second room, and it is inevitable that his feelings will be weak.
After Ye Qinglan respectfully saluted Chang Yuanbo and his wife, he stood aside quietly. I took this opportunity to take a few more glances at the picture of the cold forest in the autumn mountains, and I was happy and did not feel lonely at all.
After her eyes were too addicted, Ye Qinglan paid attention to a few cousins.
Ye Qingrou, the eighth lady in the second room, stood with her five-year-old sister Ye Qingru, and didn't know what to say in a low voice. Ye Qingning, the sixth lady of the long room, stood aside alone, looking a little impatient.
Ye Qinglan almost instinctively observed the demeanor of these two young girls.
Ye Qingning's appearance and posture were impeccable, but his expression was slightly arrogant, and his small chin was unconsciously raised slightly. At a glance, you can tell that you have an arrogant temperament and are not easy to get along.
But she is really beautiful, and her gestures exude innate elegance and nobility. Anyone who sees her for the first time will probably be drawn to it.
Ye Qingrou is completely different. She has a slender figure, a sweet appearance, and a sweet smile on the corner of her lips, which makes her look easy-going and amiable.
Ye Qinglan thought about it, and then took the initiative to talk to Ye Qingrou.
One of the magic weapons of social interaction, appropriate compliments and compliments are easier to get closer.
"Eighth cousin, the dress you are wearing today is so beautiful." Ye Qinglan's best thing in her previous life was to deal with all kinds of strangers, so she was naturally familiar with it.
Sure enough, Ye Qingrou's smile immediately became a lot more affectionate: "Ten cousins have a good eye, this is specially customized in the brocade weaving workshop!" ”
Ye Qinglan found the topic without much effort, and asked curiously: "What is the place of the brocade weaving workshop?" ”
Ye Qingrou smiled and explained Ye Qinglan's confusion: "This brocade weaving workshop is very famous in the capital. Even the concubines in the palace are frequent visitors to the brocade weaving workshop! ”
Different from ordinary garment workshops, brocade weaving workshops initially focused on making men's ready-to-wear garments. The materials are exquisite, the workmanship is exquisite, and the style is novel. In a very short period of time, it swept the aristocratic circle of the capital. Almost all of the nobles wore ready-to-wear garments from brocade weaving workshops.
After the name of the brocade weaving workshop sounded, it focused on developing the women's ready-to-wear market. In just a few years, it has become the most famous garment workshop in the capital.
Of course, the price of the brocade weaving workshop is also ridiculously expensive. is such a thin powder and blue dress, it costs as much as a dozen taels.
How much is a dozen taels?
Ye Qinglan has just arrived, and she has no concept of silver money for the time being. However, he showed a look of envy at the right time.
Ye Qingrou was secretly proud, but said casually: "It's nothing, I just made four new clothes, and my sixth cousin customized eight clothes at one time!" ”
Ye Qingning had been watching coldly and silently, and suddenly said coldly: "It's so sour." If you like it, just let the second aunt make more custom for you. ”
Ye Qingrou smiled, and then smiled casually: "Sixth cousin said that she was laughing." My aunt has always been generous to you, and I only have envy, how dare I make such a request to my mother. ”
These words sound gentle, savored carefully, but soft and prickly.
Ye Qingning is not a master to be messed with, the corners of his lips hooked up the arc of mockery, and he said with a smile: "The eighth cousin is really obedient and sensible, but I, the elder sister, am far behind." I'm a natural fan of beautiful clothes and jewelry, and things that don't really work. There are too many expenses on weekdays, where can you compare to your frugality. ”
Ye Qingrou was choked, her teeth itched with anger, and she had to squeeze out a smile: "Where is it, my cousin praised it falsely." ”
What a wonderful sisterly fight! Ye Qingfu's number of points is compared with the two in front of him, but it is too far behind.
Ye Qinglan watched it with relish, and secretly exclaimed in her heart.
Ye Qingning's gaze looked at him lightly, and suddenly pulled the corners of his lips and smiled: "Tenth cousin, why didn't the ninth cousin come over today?" "I obviously already know some of the inside information, but I pretend not to ask.
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly: "It's probably because of the fatigue of the journey and the feeling of being unwell." Two days off will be fine. ”
What happened last night reached Ye Qingning's ears so quickly. How broken are the maids and daughters in this inner house?
This answer was somewhat unexpected by Ye Qingning.
From the short moment they got along yesterday, it was enough to see that the relationship between Ye Qingfu and Ye Qinglan's sisters was not harmonious. Ye Qingfu was punished and grounded, which was naturally good news for Ye Qinglan. But Ye Qinglan didn't publicize it, but covered it up for Ye Qingfu, but she was also a smart person.
Ye Qingning's gaze at Ye Qinglan changed slightly.
This change is not significant, but it can't hide Ye Qinglan's sharp eyes.
Ye Qingning, who thought he was extremely smart and extremely arrogant, naturally disdained to deal with stupid and dull people. It seems that her expression just now has entered Ye Qingning's eyes.
As for why she wanted to make friends with Ye Qingning, it was naturally the reason.
Whether it was to avoid Ye Yuanzhou or avoid the Xue family and Ye Qingfu, she had to think of staying in Changyuan Bofu. As long as you can impress the cheap dad Ye Chengli, the probability of success in this matter is fifty percent.
If someone else is willing to speak for her, of course it will be better. Chang Yuanbo and his wife are good candidates, but it's a pity that they are not easy to get close. Among the rest, the Zheng family is counted.
Zheng's identity is detached, and his words are extremely weighty. As long as she is willing to open her mouth, Xue will be happy to shake off her hot potato. The question is, why did the Zheng family speak for her, a three-room concubine?
I was thinking about how to solve this problem, and the opportunity came.
Ye Qinglan smiled seemingly casually and asked, "I have long heard that the sixth cousin has outstanding piano skills, but I don't know who I studied with?" ”
The second magic weapon of social interaction is to pick the topic that the other person is most interested in when talking.
A hint of pride flashed in Ye Qingning's eyes, and he replied lightly: "The master who is responsible for teaching me the piano is surnamed Zeng, and others call her Zengniangzi." ”
Someone else's word is wonderful.
Who are the so-called other people? Naturally, he is a person who has attainments in the art of the piano. It may even be someone who has weight in the aristocratic circle. Zeng Niangzi is a woman, but she can make a name for herself in the capital, and she is by no means an ordinary person.
Thinking about it this way, it is naturally not easy to invite such a luthier to teach piano skills.
Ye Qingrou didn't interject, but there was a faint hint of envy in her eyes.
It seems that this Zeng Niangzi is only responsible for teaching Ye Qingning's piano skills, and even Ye Qingrou in the second room has no chance to learn with her.
Ye Qingning naturally wouldn't have thought that in just one sentence, Ye Qinglan would deduce so much useful information. [bookid=1430068,bookname="Zhou Xiaoyun's Happy Life"]
