Chapter 107: Seven Layers of Splendor
Xu Qiyun raised his chin and said to Xu Qidie: "What am I talking about!" Then he asked the maid with a smile on his face: "Where is the county lord?" Can you be accompanied? â
The maid's expression was a little strange: "When did the county lord ask someone to accompany him!" The county lord said that there are many people today, and the Xu family is afraid that they will not be able to book a good position, so they will go over together, and wait for the flower and fruit competition to begin, and then go to the test table. â
Xu Qiyun was surprised, the lord of the five counties has always liked a lot of flattering little ladies around him, why is he suddenly so low-key today?
Then I heard Xu Qijin ask the maid: "This sister, are you the maid of Yuwangfu?" â
"Not really!" The maid smiled: "The county lord was still complaining about the second miss just now, saying that the second lady has not been to Yuwang's Mansion for a long time, and it is just a weekday, today is such a festive day, the second miss took the fifth miss out together, and I never let the county lord of my family know, and the fifth miss can coax my county lord to be angry after a while!" â
Of course, Xu Qijin knew what Shuang Lian was angry about, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "I'll naturally explain to the county lord later." Then he turned his head and said, "I and Zhuo Zhuo will go to the Frost Mercy County Lord's side, will the third sister, the fourth sister, the sixth sister, and the seventh sister go over together or continue to wait for the fifth county lord here?" If you go over together, you will leave a mother-in-law here to wait and talk to the five county lords, if not, then we will make an appointment to meet you at the flower and fruit competition later. â
Xu Qiyun's face was a little unsightly: "The second sister and the fifth sister will go, I'll wait for the fifth county lord here." â
Xu Qiyu said: "Before going out, my grandmother told me to take care of my fifth sister. "Whether to follow or stay, the meaning is self-evident.
Xu Qidie was very entangled. She finally had the opportunity to get close to the fifth sister, so she naturally didn't want to be separated from Xu Qirong. But if she went to the Lord of Frost Mercy with her, she was reluctant to give the lanterns that the queen mother promised by her third sister.
Xu Qijin also saw Xu Qidie's hesitation. Thinking that Xu Qiyu had already gone with him, it was not good to leave Xu Qiyun alone to wait for the five county lords here, so he said: "It's better for the sixth sister and the seventh sister to accompany the third sister to wait for the five county lords here, anyway, the time for the Huaguo competition is not long, and then we will be together again." â
Xu Qidie is still a little in awe of her powerful second sister, and when she heard Xu Qijin say this, where is there any hesitation. Busy with a full mouth agreed. Xu Qi'e saw that Xu Qidie agreed, so she nodded and agreed.
was about to see Shuang Lian, Xu Qirong was very excited. She hadn't seen Frost in a long time. Moreover, this time Doctor Ye has not yet informed Frost Mercy about it!
She really wanted to tell her that she could speak as soon as she saw Shuang Lian, but when she turned her head and saw Xu Qiyu who was following her without any sense of zĂ i, her blood instantly cooled down.
She will not forget how Xu Qiyu, who was usually silent at the flower viewing banquet, pointed out in front of everyone that she ate meat during her filial piety.
Come to think of this. Xu Qirong looked at Xu Qiyu quietly. Only then did I find that although Xu Qiyu's body was inconspicuous, the material was excellent, and the beads on her head looked very good.
Because Xu Qiyu's father is a concubine, Mrs. Guo doesn't like to see them in this room, and she has a very difficult time, and she will never take out a large amount of money to buy such a house for Xu Qiyu.
Xu Qirong was puzzled, Xu Qiyun was talking about the age of the people, and the uncle was an official. The big house is rich, so it is natural to put effort into dressing up Xu Qiyun. Especially on a holiday like today.
Although Xu Qiyu is the same year as Xu Qiyun, her father is a concubine, and it stands to reason that Xu Qiyun should not be overwhelmed in terms of dress. But today, Xu Qiyu's body is obviously better than Xu Qiyun's. Before, everyone's attention was on the five county lords in Xu Qiyun's mouth, and they didn't notice it for a while.
Just thinking about it, he saw Shuang Lian dressed in fancy clothes and talking to the maid beside her.
Xu Qirong couldn't help but smile dumbly, and looked at Xu Qijin as if asking, Xu Qijin shrugged his shoulders, saying that he didn't know what was going on.
Seeing the ladies of the Xu family coming, Shuang Lian immediately put on a straight face, and snorted a few times vigorously, and was really angry.
Xu Qijin took Xu Qirong's hand and said with a smile: "The county lord is a good color today!" â
Xu Qirong pursed his lips and smiled.
Shuang Lian's face was immediately full of annoyance, glaring at Xu Qijin, stretching out her fingers, and being a little aggressive: "I haven't said anything about you yet, you're good, not only don't you think about me, but as soon as you meet, you laugh at me like this!" â
Xu Qijin couldn't cry or laugh, a little helpless: "Where is the county lord?" I'm obviously praising you, why am I laughing at you? â
The frost mercy county lord looked carefully dressed today, the makeup on his face was exquisite, the beads on his head were luxurious, and the clothes on his body were even more gorgeous.
The whole person shines brightly.
Shuang Lian shook the playful little beads on her forehead, a little annoyed: "The mother concubine is really, she can get married if she dresses like this?" Shame on you. â
Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong couldn't cry or laugh again.
The little lady looks good, how can she be ashamed in her mouth?
Seeing that Xu Qijin was about to speak again, Shuang Lian hurriedly said, "Don't miss me." Jiaren is now messing around with her little white-faced general all day long, and she doesn't come to play with me anymore, Yang Mengyun is married far away, we finally meet, and you use those little ladies to persuade me, how should I live this day! â
Turning his head and seeing Xu Qirong standing obediently and skillfully, the whole person pounced on him, holding Xu Qirong's arm and shaking it straight: "It's still hello, never talk about me." â
Xu Qijin glanced at Shuang Lian: "You are embarrassed to be coquettish with Sister Rong!" â
The two of them just went back and forth, forgetting Xu Qiyu aside. If she changed to another little lady, she would have died of shame and indignation, but Xu Qiyu didn't, Xu Qiyu regarded herself as an invisible person, and the expression on her face was not a little uncomfortable.
Xu Qirong saw it in his eyes, and he was a little more jealous of Xu Qiyu in his heart. Her fourth sister is by no means as simple as it seems.
Shuang Lian couldn't say anything about Xu Qijin, she was a little angry, so she simply pulled Xu Qirong aside and muttered in a low voice: "Chen Jinling is also here today, I'll take you to see him later, and ask him to invite us to eat osmanthus balls." â
Xu Qirong's expression was very strange, and he wanted to refuse, but thinking of Shuang Lian's domineering character, he didn't say anything.
Shuang Lian said again: "I heard that you are going to fight with the lord of the Jin Dynasty today?" Compared with a little lady who is out of the house, you don't have to insult yourself! Shuang Lian's vision is high, there are few little ladies in the entire Xijing City that she can look at, and she turned her head and glared at Xu Qijin as she said: "You are a sister, and you don't stop it." â
Xu Qijin Qi said: "How does the county lord know that Sister Rong is going to compare flowers and fruits with the five county lords?" â
"The whole Xijing City knows, otherwise you think it's so crowded today, why would the county lord come out to join in the fun?" Then he said to Xu Qirong assuringly: "I asked Chen Jinling to bring his fox friends and dog friends to support you, don't be afraid, if you lose or win, Chen Jinling will buy back the Qiaoguo you made at a high price." Chen Jinling's little white face is no better, but he definitely has more money on hand than those gentlemen. â
Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong couldn't cry or laugh.
Qiu Nong hurriedly said: "The county lord doesn't have to worry, the girl has also practiced in the past few days, and the flowers and fruits she has made, the maid looks at it, and it is much better than the painting." â
Frost sighed, "That's not what I'm worried about. Raising his eyes and seeing Xu Qiyu, he swallowed back the unspoken words again.
Xu Qijin also had no choice but to say to Shuang Pitiao: "Don't worry, the county lord." â
Shuang Lian pondered in her heart, even if the whole Xijing City knew that Sister Rong was dumb, and her family Chen Jinling was waiting to marry, what were you afraid of! When I thought about it, I was immediately relieved.
Looking at Xu Wu, who was smiling, Shuang Lian inexplicably said: "It's cheap Chen Jinling." â
In view of Shuang Lian's endless and unobtrusive temperament, neither Xu Qijin nor Xu Qirong dared to accept this.
Shuang Lian said again: "Chen Jinling found someone to get some lanterns, they are very exquisite, let's go to the Lotus River to put the lanterns, I have cut all the rice paper." â
The customs of the new Chen country, on the day of the Qixi Beggar's Day, the little lady put the river lantern, and the river lantern put the little lady's wish strip. The teenagers often wait downstream, and all the river lanterns are lucky enough to float downstream and never go out, so the teenagers can pick one and pick it up. In the future, on the night of the newlywed cave room, the groom and the bride chatted, if the groom official had caught the bride's lamp, it would be a heaven-sent marriage.
Many men and women who are married often make appointments at this time, and do something on the river lantern that only the two of them know.
The lantern that the little prince found is not only exquisite, but also very chic, the lamp of the people is a double-layer petal, and the little prince is looking for a seven-layer one, with a nickname, called "seven-layer splendor".
When he was still in Yuwang's Mansion, Shuang Lian had already asked the little prince to go to the lower reaches of the Lotus River to wait for the blue seven-layer splendor.
Xu Qirong didn't know this layer, and she was a little happy when she pinched the cyan river lantern stuffed into her hand, this was the first time she had put the river lantern in her life.
On the wish note, Xu Qirong wrote: The past should be taken as a warning; Rong Hua recorded, a safe life.
Xu Qiyu also got a seven-layer splendid lamp, orange, with orange candlelight, which was very conspicuous in a river lamp.
There are so many little ladies who put the river lanterns, although Shuanglian likes to be lively, but she hates being noisy, and after putting the river lanterns, she pulled Xu Qirong to leave.
Xu Qijin smiled: "County Lord, we have to see if our river lantern will turn over in the middle of the river." â
Shuang Lian said with a big grin: "Even if you find a lamp, you have to turn it over in the middle of the water, and Chen Jinling doesn't have to say that he is a gentleman!" â
Chen Jinling is not a gentleman in the first place!
Having said that, Frost Lian still stopped, staring at the lamp on the surface of the Lotus River with burning eyes. It's just that other little ladies are staring at their own lights, and the frost county lord is staring at Miss Xu Wu's lights. Available Hearts! (To be continued......)
