Chapter 68: Show off

Going to the Qin Palace?

As long as it is related to King Qin, there is basically nothing good.

Xu Jinyu was about to find an excuse to refuse, when he heard Ji Ze smile and said, "I specially told His Royal Highness King Qin that Cousin Zheng and Cousin Jin will also go to the palace with us for a banquet tomorrow." I've already answered. ”

Zou immediately raised his eyebrows: "Always touch the light of the world, how embarrassing is we." ”

Ji Ze smiled slowly: "Aunt is polite." This time it was not the light of the Marquis Mansion, it was His Royal Highness King Qin who appreciated the talent of his cousin, so he specially asked his cousin to come to the door as a guest. ”

Hearing this, the Zou family was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "No matter what, I still have to thank the prince." I'll go and tell SΓΉ Zheng'er later, and he will be very happy to go to the Qin Palace. ”

Xiao Zou immediately asked with concern: "Zheng'er has new clothes to wear!" ”

Zou replied with a smile: "When I came from Lin'an, I brought a lot of new clothes. Zheng'er doesn't have many opportunities to go out of the house on weekdays, and the clothes are enough to wear. ”

At this time, the clothing is limited by the printing and dyeing process, and it will fade and lose its brightness after wearing it several times. When you go out of the house, you usually wear new clothes. It's not unusual for a woman to make a dozen new clothes in a season. Even men must have at least a few new clothes.

Xiao Zou smiled: "It's me, the aunt, who is too careless, and I forgot to prepare a few more new clothes for Zheng'er." It's too late tomorrow, and when I come back from the Qin Palace, I will ask the shopkeeper of the Embroidery Pavilion to come to the mansion and buy a few clothes for each of them. ”

When you go out of the house as a guest, you should care about the women who pay attention to what you wear. Why is Xiao Zou so concerned about Xu Zheng's clothing?

Xu Jinyu frowned secretly, inexplicably feeling that something was wrong. For a while, I couldn't think of the strangeness.

Xiao Zou and Zou discussed the clothes of tomorrow's guests, and the discussion was very warm and harmonious.

Ji Yu listened to it and asked expectantly, "Mother, can I also make new clothes?" ”

Xiao Zou immediately straightened his face and glared at Ji Yu: "You made so many new clothes last time, but you can't wear them for two years, and you still need any new clothes." ”

Ji Yu looked stunned and didn't dare to interject anymore.

Gu Caiping said with a smile: "Sister Yu, I have a red gold collar inlaid with jewels and gemstones, you have fair skin, you must look very good wearing it." Later, how about you go with me to the Agarwood Pavilion to see? ”

Ji Yu's eyes lit up: "Fourth Sister Gu, are you planning to lend me the red gold collar to wear?" ”

Gu Caiping pursed her lips and smiled: "If you like it, I'll give it to you." ”

Ji Yu's heart was coaxed. I heard Gu Caiping smile again: "I have worn a lot of exquisite and beautiful jewelry, the collar will be given to you, I will have other jewelry to wear tomorrow, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Everyone: ""

Tomorrow I will be a guest at the Qin Palace, but I didn't invite you!

Even Xu Jinyu was stunned.

This Gu Caiping is too thick-skinned! Just followed Ji Ze out of the house as a guest so calmly, she and Xu Zheng were relatives of Xiao Zou's family after all, and Gu Caiping's identity was delicate. How can there be a reason for a wife and sister to travel with their brother-in-law!

But Gu Caiping just said it as a matter of course, making it difficult for people to open their mouths to say anything.

Xiao Zou and Ji Ze quickly exchanged a look, and then coughed lightly and said, "Everyone knows this news, so let's disperse!" Have a good rest today, and set off early tomorrow to go to the Qin Palace. ”

Everyone came to their senses and went their own way.

Gu Caiping turned a blind eye to everyone's subtle expressions, and affectionately took Ji Yu's arm: "Sister Yu, I happen to be free now, why don't I go to the Agarwood Pavilion for a while." ”

Ji Yu hesitated slightly, couldn't resist the temptation of exquisite jewelry, and nodded.

Gu Caiping stretched out her other hand and took the initiative to take Ji Yu's hand: "Sister Yu, let's go together." ”

didn't call Xu Jinyu, and deliberately left Xu Jinyu aside.

Xu Jinyu smiled and didn't pay attention to it at all. I was about to walk to the Zou family and go back to Yinyan Pavilion together, when I heard Ji Yu smile and say, "Cousin Jin, you can come too!" It's more crowded and more lively. ”

Xu Jinyu couldn't bear to refuse Ji Yu's kindness, so she had to respond with a smile.

Gu Caiping glanced at Xu Jinyu, with a bit of coldness and provocation in his eyes. Unexpectedly, Xu Jinyu didn't even look at her at all.

He was so dismissive of her!

Gu Caiping felt a fire in her heart, and secretly planned to make Xu Jinyu "look good" later.

The four girls talked and laughed, and soon arrived at the Agarwood Pavilion.

Gu Caiping warmly invited everyone to sit in her room for a while.

Ji Yu listened to it in her ears and subconsciously pursed her lips. Gu Caiping really didn't treat herself as an outsider. It's obviously the guest room of the Agarwood Pavilion, when did it become her room?

The Agarwood Pavilion is elegantly furnished, and even the guest rooms are exquisitely furnished.

Gu Caiping instructed Chaoxia to bring over the jewelry box. There are three layers of jewelry boxes, the first layer contains all kinds of gold hairpin and hosta earrings, and the second layer contains gold bracelets, jade bracelets, jade pendants and the like. On the third floor hangs a small silver lock.

"The jewelry in these two layers is reserved for daily wear, and the jewelry in the third layer is the jewelry that is worn when visiting the house." Gu Caiping said with a smile while opening the silver lock.

Such jewelry boxes are not unusual. Ji Yu and Ji Yu are both daughters of the Hou Mansion, and of course there is no shortage of jewelry. However, when Gu Caiping opened the third layer of the box with a little ostentatiousness, even Ji Yu couldn't help but admire: "Fourth Sister Gu has a lot of precious and exquisite jewelry. ”

A hint of pride flashed in Gu Caiping's eyes, and she responded with a pretended understatement: "These are all given to me by my grandmother and mother, and I can barely wear them to see people." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Jinyu as if intentionally or unintentionally

The feelings are specially shown in front of her!

If Gu Caiping wants to take the opportunity to make her feel inferior or something, I'm afraid she will be disappointed. Reliving a life, what she thinks about every day is how to take revenge and protect her relatives, and where is there any interest in paying attention to this kind of childish and boring show-off competition.

Xu Jinyu was secretly amused in her heart, and praised in her mouth: "Sister Gu is really blessed, the elders in the family love you so much, and they have rewarded you with so many precious and beautiful jewelry." ”

Gu Caiping's heart was comfortable, and the corners of her lips curled: "Sister Xu praised it." Probably because Sister Xu used to live in Lin'an for a long time and was not familiar with the popular jewelry styles in Beijing, so she felt that these jewelry were delicate and beautiful. In fact, these are really common, not unusual. ”

The words reveal the superiority of the famous ladies in the capital. almost didn't say that Xu Jinyu was a native bun from the countryside.

Ji Yu frowned, and there was a hint of unhappiness in her expression.

Xu Jinyu was not angry at all, and responded very calmly: "What Sister Gu said is true." When I used to be in Lin'an City, I was also well-informed. But as soon as I arrived in the capital, I knew what it meant to be prosperous and rich. If nothing else, the style of the dress and the variety of new jewelry opened my eyes. ”

Ji Yu's brows furrowed, and there was a hint of a smile in her eyes. Xu Jinyu always has the calmness to turn embarrassment into leisure, but shows Gu Caiping's superficiality and meanness.

It seems that she doesn't have to worry about Xu Jinyu anymore. Just relying on Gu Caiping, I want to humiliate Xu Jinyu, but I am afraid that I will bring humiliation on myself.

Sure enough, I heard Gu Caiping say pretending again: "Sister Xu, can I have suitable jewelry to wear tomorrow?" If not, I'll lend you some. Tomorrow will go to the Qin Palace, if it is too shabby, it will be the people of the Weining Marquis Mansion who will be lost. ”

Xu Jinyu replied slowly: "I came to the Hou Mansion to seek refuge with my aunt, and my aunt has already specially prepared jewelry for me. Don't bother with my sister. ”

After a pause, he kindly reminded: "Sister Gu can be more careful when she speaks in the future." It's better to say less words like that just now, otherwise, if it reaches my aunt's ears, I'm afraid that my aunt will think that you deliberately instigated it, and she will definitely not like it in her heart. ”

This time, Gu Caiping was speechless, and his face turned red and white.

Xu Jinyu suddenly smiled sweetly: "That being said, Sister Gu has a good intention, if I refuse to do so, wouldn't it hurt Sister Gu's heart?" Then I'll pick two pieces of jewelry at random. ”

Gu Caiping: ""

It's really cheap and good!

Also, what is it to pick two pieces of jewelry at random! She's borrowing jewelry, not giving jewelry!

Ji Yuqiang couldn't help laughing. In terms of cheekiness and black heart, Gu Caiping is too far worse than Xu Jinyu. However, whoever asked her to provoke first, now she deserves to be played by Xu Jinyu.

Ji Yu had already been impatient to hear it, and urged: "Fourth Sister Gu, aren't you going to give me a collar?" Hurry up and show it to me. ”

Xu Jinyu also smiled and agreed: "Yes, Sister Gu take out all the jewelry!" I'm waiting to pick two! ”

Gu Caiping smiled a little stiffly, and took out the jewelry in the third layer one by one and put them on the table. I'm dying in my heart!

She originally conceived a good idea, and humiliated Xu Jinyu fiercely by picking jewelry. But why is this happening now?

The first thing that catches your eye is the jewel collar. Brilliant and exquisitely crafted, the various colored gemstones inlaid on it are almost dazzling.

Ji Yu fell in love at a glance, and happily put the jewel collar around her neck: "Do I look good when I wear it?" ”

Xu Jinyu was full of praise: "You look so good wearing this collar." While talking, he picked out a hosta and put it on: "How about I wear this hosta?" ”

Ji Yu immediately reciprocated: "It looks so good to wear." ”

Xu Jinyu picked up a golden hairpin inlaid with huge eastern pearls: "What about this golden hairpin?" ”

Ji Yu nodded again and again: "Jin Hai is also very beautiful." ”

"Where's this jade bracelet?"

Gu Caiping was almost dumbfounded as he watched from the sidelines.

Didn't you say just pick two? What's going on with this sweeping posture now? Wait a minute! That gemstone bracelet is my favorite, ah R1152
