Chapter 51: Calculation

Aunt Sun fell ill the next day. She was moaning on the bed with her head wrapped in a handkerchief, when her two precious daughters, Pearl and Jewel, came.

As soon as Pearl entered the door, she said: "Mother, you are too useless, how can you let your girl climb on your head, even we have no face." ”

One sentence made Aunt Sun girly.

Baozhu said idly: "Lanxiang's little hooves are nothing, Mingzhu and Mrs. are the big trouble." Now my father has made four sets of clothes for her in a month, and my sister has reached the spring, and she has not yet made spring clothes. It's embarrassing to go out to a banquet. There is no good head and face in the head, and my father took away all the good heads and faces that our sisters have accumulated over the years, and now I have a few silver hairpins left, where is it embarrassing to go out. ”

Pearl hurriedly followed: "Yes, my favorite ruby Huadian, as well as the set of red gold noodles given by Cui Fu merchants, were all taken by Mingzhu's little hooves." Now she dresses up every day, either for poetry or tea, I see, more than my eldest brother and father. It's ridiculous that the man still asked her to make poems. She only knows a few words, and her husband has never been invited, and she has the reputation of a talented woman, which really makes me laugh. ”

Baozhu took it and said, "My sister still laughs at her, I think she laughs at us." In the past, when our sisters went out, the other people didn't praise us for our beauty. Now, as soon as we go out, people say that we are concubines, where are they willing to play with us? ”

Aunt Sun couldn't help but hear this, and shouted: "Enough, you don't know how to help me, what's the use of raising you when you're angry with me?" ”

The pearl and orb were startled when they heard this. Pearl hurriedly shut her mouth. Baozhu's eyes turned around and said, "Mother, actually, the idea you said last time was very good, why don't you see you and your father to invite Master Chen to dinner." But then it's up to us. ”

Pearl became interested when she heard it: "Yes, mother, you go and talk to your father." In the team, what is 'we', sister, you are so young, what is the matter with you? ”

Although Baozhu is not very old, he has developed early, and he is plump, and he already has two small buns. Although Pearl is two years older, it is slender and elongated. The bun is not as big as the orb. So Baozhu said unconvinced: "Hmph, I'm a little small, but yours is small." ”

Pearl was furious when she heard this, and was about to scold her sister. Aunt Sun raised her hand and said, "Okay, what do you say?" I'm so angry that I've forgotten about it, and it looks like we're going to get ready. ”

After saying that, she took off the veil on her head, called the little girl to re-wash her, and deliberately used a lot of fat powder to dress up the color of twelve points before stopping. When the little girl went down, Aunt Sun took out a key from her body, took out a small box by the bed, opened it, and there was a stack of silver tickets inside, and took out a few of them.

He said to his two daughters, "I still have some private money here, and I will ask someone to go with you to the street to buy two beautiful clothes and two eye-catching jewelry." As for me, I will go to your father's room and tell your father to invite Master Chen to dinner. It's just that it will be difficult for you to appear as a girl from the Xu family at that time. So be it. When the time came, I arranged for the banquet to be held in the garden, and the cherry tree in the garden had just bloomed, and I invited him to come in the name of cherry appreciation, and then the pearl danced and the jewel played the harp. So, when you buy clothes and jewelry, you have to match your dance music and piano music, don't dress up as a girl, understand? ”

Now the pearls and jewels all understand, this is to let them seduce Chen Yuanheng. Both of them blushed at this moment. Aunt Sun said: "What is there to be ashamed of, I have already provoked a family to make a living when I am as old as you." You were born to your aunt. What's the matter, it's true that you can get the favor of your husband. Think about how to dress up, how to serve wine, is it true, I spent so much money to hire someone to teach you for a few years, is it in vain? ”

Pearl and Baozhu were told by her mother, thought about it once, nodded, looked at each other again, looked down on each other very much, and took the silver ticket and went out.

Aunt Sun went to twist her already hard waist and went to Xu Zhijie's study.

Three days later, Xu Zhijie invited Chen Yuanheng to his house for a drink. Chen Yuanheng didn't want to go, but considering that they were all colleagues, and Mrs. Hu hadn't reconciled with Xu Zhijie yet, she still had to give this face. But because Chen Yuanheng was not ashamed of Xu Zhijie's character, he still kept an eye on it and invited the Bai family to go with him. Xu Zhijie didn't know what Aunt Sun thought, and when he heard that Mrs. Bai was also here, he was immediately very happy.

That night, the Chen family and his wife took Chen Wenhui to Xu's house for a banquet. Because Bai and Chen Wenhui were there, Xu Zhijie specially invited Hu and Xu Mingzhu to come out to accompany him. Aunt Sun secretly complained, but there was no way.

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Zhijie specially said to Aunt Sun: "Aunt Sun, you specially arranged the banquet under the cherry blossom tree, didn't you say that there is a show but you can watch it, why don't you see the servants coming up?" ”

Aunt Sun had no choice at this time, so she had to ask the maids to invite her, but she stood there with a worried face.

The Hu family is a heartless person, and they don't see anything, but the Chen family and his wife are human spirits, and when they saw the face of this Aunt Sun, they knew that something was wrong, and they gave each other a look, and they were secretly on guard.

After a while, the sound of a piano sounded, the music was cheerful, and with the music, a beautiful woman with a flower face and a moon appearance and a light veil came. I saw the beauty wearing heavy makeup, combing her beard, sticking long tassels, wearing a light gauze skirt as thin as cicada wings, and when she jumped up with the music, her slender thighs and white and tender skin loomed. The beautiful woman who played the piano seemed to be a young girl, but her face was also covered with heavy makeup, wearing a bandeau skirt, draped in light gauze on the outside, and a pair of white and tender semicircles were exposed on her chest, but the scale was a little small.

Chen Wenhui felt so familiar when she saw this dancing beauty, and then looked at the beauty who played the piano, she was even more familiar, and her eyes floated to the seat while playing the piano, what a joy was that charming eye.

Chen Yuanheng and Bai didn't feel it, although this dancing girl and Qin Ji were beautiful, their skills were average, but the two of them had even seen the singing and dancing in the palace, so they didn't feel anything.

Xu Zhijie was surprised, Hu was also surprised, Mingzhu was the most outspoken, and exclaimed directly: "Why are Sister Pearl and Sister Baozhu, why do you wear so few clothes, aren't you afraid of freezing?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Chen Wenhui understood, no wonder it was familiar, it turned out to be these two sisters, no wonder she invited her father to eat and drink, she was waiting here.

The Bai family had heard the name of this aunt and daughter before, and as soon as they heard what Mingzhu said, they immediately knew it. Just kidding, the Bai family used to be a master of house fighting in the capital, and I don't know how many people I have seen like this, but I haven't seen a eunuch girl do this kind of thing. The Bai family is also from a concubine, and I really feel that these two concubines are really embarrassed.

Chen Yuanheng also understood, this Xu Zhijie is really incorrigible, he has lost the face of a scholar, how can he let his biological daughter come out to do such a thing. Thinking of this, Chen Yuanheng said in a deep voice: "Lord Xu, we are added as colleagues, how can we let our daughter come out to be cold, now it's still the cold weather in spring, be careful about the cold, let's go down quickly and change into some thicker clothes." ”

Xu Zhijie, who said this, blushed, glanced at Aunt Sun fiercely, and said, "Don't let them go down quickly, it's embarrassing, it's really not on the stage." ”

Hu Shi's whole body trembled: "Xu Zhijie, you are so shameless." You have treated me badly for so many years, no matter your daughter, spoiling your concubine and killing your wife, I put up with it, I didn't expect you to be so shameless as this. I formally propose to you today that I want to reconcile and leave. ”

When he said a word, Xu Zhijie was stunned, he never thought that his wife, who had been educated in three virtues and four virtues, would ask for peace and leave. In the past, no matter how he tortured his wife, his wife was obedient, because she was born in a scholarly family, and the Hu family did not abandon women, only festival women, what happened today, she actually wanted to reconcile.

Aunt Sun was ashamed to death, thinking that this was the end, not only did she not slap in with Lord Chen, but also offended Lord Chen's wife, so the master might not be able to make her angry. Her life in the house was even more difficult. Suddenly, she heard that Hu Shi was going to reconcile with Xu Zhijie, and suddenly it was like a pie falling from the sky, and she didn't know how to get better if she liked it.

Bai was originally very angry, this Xu Zhijie arranged for his concubine to seduce his father-in-law in front of him, this is really unbearable, he was thinking about how to deal with Xu Zhijie, when he suddenly heard Hu's words, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately applauded in his heart. What a great opportunity. Be sure to help Sister Hu grasp it. Thinking of this, he hurriedly glanced at Chen Yuanheng.

Chen Yuanheng looked at his wife's eyes and understood, this is an excellent opportunity, so that because of this reason, he can get back the dowry smoothly, and he can use it to please his boss because he is afraid that Xu Zhijie will treat Mingzhu like those two concubines, so as to win the custody of Mingzhu.

Chen Yuanheng immediately said: "Lord Xu, we are colleagues, your wife should have persuaded me to make peace, but your behavior today makes me very cold, what if you dress up Mingzhu and send it to the powerful one day, Mingzhu is the righteous daughter who held a ceremony to recognize me at the big banquet." In order for my righteous daughter not to be humiliated in the future, I advise you to reconcile and leave your wife. And the pearl has to be raised by the lady. ”

Hu Shi was just angry and asked for peace. When Chen Yuanheng said this, he realized that this was the good opportunity he had been looking forward to for a long time. immediately rushed over and bowed down in front of Chen Yuanheng, shouting: "Lord Chen, the people's woman Xu Hu asks your lord to administer justice for me and send me a letter of reconciliation." ”

At this moment, Xu Zhijie was completely stupid.
