"The old lady told me to take my sister out for a walk. My mother and my father also told me. Even if I didn't have the advice of my elders, wouldn't I be careful as a sister! Ji Xiaolian smiled sweetly, she was already beautiful, and this smile was even more like a peach and plum blooming.

Ji Xiaotang listened with a smile and did not interject.

Next, Ji Xiaolian talked about the prosperity of Beijing, as well as the female dependents of various families who have close contacts with Xinhuatang, faintly showing off.

"It's not something anyone can climb." Ji Xiaolian meant something, "You are my sister, they always have to give me some face." ”

"In the future, I will have to take care of my big sister." Ji Xiaotang said with the trend.

Ji Xiaolian smiled, meaning that as long as Ji Xiaotang respected her as a big sister, she would naturally take care of Ji Xiaotang.

"The third sister can rest assured. …… Now there is a rare good thing, Princess Changning sent me a post and invited me to the tea party. Xiaotang, Princess Changning, do you know? ”

"I've heard of it." is limited to what she heard, although she must have heard more than Ji Xiaolian thought, but Ji Xiaotang didn't think it was necessary to tell Ji Xiaolian to know.

"You don't know about others, but you can't know about Princess Changning." Ji Xiaolian guessed that even if Ji Xiaotang had heard of the name of Princess Changning, it was impossible to understand it carefully.

Speaking of Princess Changning, Ji Xiaolian is like a treasure.

“…… Same age as me...... They are all born in the twentieth year of Yongjin......"

Princess Changning is the youngest daughter of the first emperor and the only daughter to be born. Princess Changning and the current emperor are born from the same mother, and they are both born to the Empress Dowager Han.

That's it alone. It is enough to show that Princess Changning's gold is expensive.

Moreover, Empress Dowager Han also dotes on this little daughter very much.

“…… Not only is he familiar with poetry, calligraphy and painting, but he is also good at riding and shooting......"

Ji Xiaolian's face lit up. It seems that when she talks about these, she is proud to follow. Ji Xiaotang listened silently, and could already draw the outline of this noble princess.

Talented and beautiful, the proud daughter of the sky.

Ji Xiaolian said a lot, but there was only one thing that she didn't tell Ji Xiaotang.

If the female dependents in Beijing offend the Empress Dowager Han, they may have to turn around, but if they offend Princess Changning. It will definitely not be able to gain a foothold in Beijing. And Princess Changning's temper is not good.

"Xiaotang, do you want to go with me? I was able to go to the princess's tea party. But they are all the most expensive boudoir daughters in Beijing. Although the princess didn't post to invite you, I'll take you to meet her and ask her to blame me! ”

Ji Xiaolian said this, giving the impression that she had a very close relationship with Princess Changning. And bring Ji Xiaotang. It was her great favor to Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang smiled at the corner of his mouth, but did not answer immediately.

Ji Xiaolian said this to Princess Changning and the tea party, if it were someone else, she was afraid that she would respond immediately, and she was worried that if she responded slowly, she would lose such a rare opportunity.

"Big sister is kind,...... Let me report to my grandmother and my mother. ”

"That's as it should be." Ji Xiaolian's smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes.

She thought in her heart that Ji Xiaotang was very willing, but the city government was deeper than ordinary people, so it was not revealed. On the contrary, he is so reserved.

"Xiaotang is both talented and beautiful, and she will definitely talk to the princess. The princess only posted to invite me alone. I tried my best, but I could only bring Xiaotang one. I'm sure I'll find another opportunity to bring my other sisters with me. ”

The latter words were what Ji Xiaolian hoped Ji Xiaotang would convey to Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Ji. It's not that she doesn't take Ji Xiaoyun and the others there, but Princess Changning doesn't allow it.

At the same time, when Ji Xiaolian said this, she also faintly praised Ji Xiaotang for being superior to other sisters.

No one will be unhappy to be praised like this, Ji Xiaolian thinks so.

Ji Xiaotang naturally understood what Ji Xiaolian meant, and still smiled, but there was no other emotion.

"I'll go back and wait for the news of the third sister, the tea party is tomorrow, and the third sister should also be ready to prepare." Ji Xiaolian got up and said goodbye.

Ji Xiaotang sent Ji Xiaolian out, and went to Xuanhuatang by the way.

Second Mrs. Ji was also in Xuanhuatang, and Ji Xiaotang happened to say all of Ji Xiaolian's words.

"Princess Changning's invitation!" Mrs. Ji was shocked.

Mrs. Ji didn't say anything.

"I mean, it's not going." Ji Xiaotang said. First of all, she was not interested in Princess Changning's tea party. Secondly, she didn't think Ji Xiaolian did this with good intentions.

Although Ji Xiaolian was more kind to her than Ji Xiaoyun and others, Ji Xiaotang could see that Ji Xiaolian actually didn't like her.

Even if she is naturally good at hiding her emotions, Ji Xiaolian is still too young after all, but Ji Xiaotang has experienced too much. She saw the comparison, sourness, dissatisfaction and calculation in Ji Xiaolian's eyes clearly.

Under this premise, Ji Xiaolian's intention to take her to the tea party is worth considering.

"Then let's not go." Mrs. Ji said, "The princess is not so easy to deal with, and we don't know her temper. "The most indispensable thing in the capital is high-ranking officials and noble eunuchs, the second master Ji has no official position now, and Ji Xiaotang is just the niece of the eldest master in the eyes of the people in Beijing.

Going out in such an capacity, Mrs. Ji Er was worried that Ji Xiaotang would be wronged.

"If you don't go, you won't go." Mrs. Ji also spoke. "The big girl's eyes are purring, and I don't feel very comfortable with her. …… The big grandma looks okay. ”

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Ji. Although Mrs. Ji is left-minded, after all, she has age, and she really looks at people with her heart, and she still has some eyesight.

After getting the words of Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Ji, Ji Xiaotang went to find Ji Xiaolian.

Walking back from the three small main rooms where Mrs. Ji lived, passing by three back cover rooms, followed by two exquisite small cross courtyards, where Ji Xiaolian and Ji Xiaoqin sisters lived next to each other.

Ji Xiaolian lives in the east courtyard, a small atrium, with three main rooms on it, and three east and west wings. Ji Xiaotang saw Ji Xiaolian in the upper house.

Hearing that Ji Xiaotang didn't follow him, Ji Xiaolian's face couldn't help but fall, but it was only for a moment. She's back to normal.

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't take her there. Xiaotang. Can you make it clear to the old lady and the second wife? ”

"Make it clear. My grandmother and my mother both read the big sister's good. But I'm a newcomer, I'm still young, and I don't know the rules here, so I'm afraid that if I go, I'll bring my big sister tired. ”

"If you're afraid of being burdened by you, I won't say I'll take you there. Is it that the old lady and the second wife can't trust me? Ji Xiaolian deliberately said this, but she was actually a little weak-hearted.

Mrs. Ji is still there, and Mrs. Ji looks at her with cold and scrutiny.

"Big sister, why bother so much." Ji Xiaotang smiled. "When we settle down and go out, we need more guidance from our big sister."

Ji Xiaotang's words came to this, and Ji Xiaolian couldn't say anything more. Secretly, I felt that Ji Xiaotang was scheming, and the so-called settling down naturally did not mean that he was stable in Xinhuatang, but after Ji Er became an official.

Yesterday, she occasionally heard Master Ji and Mrs. Ji talking. Speaking of Master Ji Er. said that when Master Ji entered Beijing this time, he would have at least a fourth-grade official position.

This is because the second master Ji almost scattered his family wealth to help the victims in the disaster year, and also contained the Xie rebels in the Xie rebellion case, and made great contributions to the elimination of the rebels by the imperial army.

Although Master Ji Er was born as a Jinshi, he has not been an official for many years, and he is all in the locality, and he has achieved the highest grade of seven grades. Now that he is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, he can also be promoted to the third level. It's really rare, and when the time comes, it will be the upstart in Beijing.

At that time. Ji Xiaotang's identity is very different from now.

Ji Xiaolian was unhappy in her heart, sent Ji Xiaotang back, and came to see Mrs. Ji again, and told Mrs. Ji like this.

"That's it." Mrs. Ji thought that no matter how smart Ji Xiaotang was, he was also from the countryside, and his knowledge was limited after all. If you want to suppress and suppress Ji Xiaotang's spirit, by the way, return some colors to Mrs. Ji and the second room's family, and there will be many opportunities in the future.

Ji Xiaolian was unwilling to be reconciled, thinking that this was a rare opportunity, and it was a pity to let it go, and she just took advantage of Ji Xiaotang's unstable foothold.

Mrs. Ji looked at her daughter and understood in her heart. The reason why Ji Xiaolian was so persistent and wanted to lend Princess Changning's hand was that she felt the threat of Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaolian did feel threatened.

She relied on her beauty and talent, but as soon as Ji Xiaotang came, she first surpassed her in beauty. Then Ji Xiaotang had a conversation with Yang, which was even more out of her reach.

There is also a good arrangement in Ji Xiaotang's house, she once asked secretly, knowing that it was all Ji Xiaotang's idea.

Such Ji Xiaotang simply compared her to a vulgar and unliterate country woman. And this is exactly what she secretly used to describe Ji Xiaotang and other people from Qingyuan before.

When the second master Ji gets the official, Ji Xiaotang will definitely stand out when she walks among the ladies in Beijing, and she will also be overshadowed.

This is something that Ji Xiaolian can't accept calmly no matter what.

Princess Changning's post gave her a good opportunity.

"If she doesn't go, I'm scared to think about it, I'm going to take her there!" Ji Xiaolian turned to Mrs. Ji for help, "Mother, you can help me think of a way." ”

Mrs. Ji wanted to ignore it, but Ji Xiaolian begged hard, but she refused to give up.

"You......"

The eldest lady sighed secretly, her daughter is good at everything, but she is too competitive and competitive, and it was obvious when she got along with her cousins when she was a child, and there were some turmoil at that time, which made her and her aunt embarrassed a few times.

Although she sighed a little, Mrs. Ji didn't think that Ji Xiaolian's competitiveness was really bad.

Ji Xiaolian actually followed her and her aunt.

If the aunt didn't compete and compete, she wouldn't have opened up such a situation in the old mansion. If she hadn't been competitive, she wouldn't have the good days of Xinhuatang now.

Xiaolian is more competitive in order to compete for a better future.

"It's better to ...... like this," Mrs. Ji said carefully in her heart.

"Great idea!" Ji Xiaolian immediately turned her worries into joy. "After all, they live in our house, and they are new to our house, so they don't have to believe what we say. If we want them to become deaf and blind, we have to do it! ”

"Only this once." Mrs. Ji asked Ji Xiaolian not to be too happy, "This matter involves the princess, even if she guessed it later, it is difficult to have a proof, and it is not easy to care." But it won't work out in the future. ”

Ji Xiaotang controlled the back corner door on the east side, and then waited for the second master Ji to get the official. They can't fool Mrs. Ji and the people in the second room anymore.

"This time is enough." Ji Xiaolian said with a smile.

As long as things go smoothly this time, Ji Xiaotang and the female dependents in the second room will have no future in the capital. Even, the two-room family can't live in the capital. At that time. The Erfang family left the capital with Mrs. Ji, and Xinhuatang would return to its former state.

Ji Xiaolian said this.

In this regard, Mrs. Ji couldn't help but look forward to it. Mrs. Ji can live in Beijing for a few fewer days, she can't ask for it.

……

Xuanhuatang

Ji Xiaotang was only wearing homely clothes and sitting on the kang, and he was fiddling with a model of a sea ship with Changsheng. The model is a ruler long, made entirely of crystal, and made to scale. Just like a real sea ship, there are crew members dressed in Western costumes on the deck of the model, which is also vivid.

This is Master Ji San's trip to sea this time. Seeing it from other sea ships, he immediately thought that Ji Xiaotang would like it, so he tried every means to get it for Ji Xiaotang. Ji Xiaotang took it out at this time and taught Changsheng to know the sea ship. On the other hand, he also told some interesting stories about the sea of Master Ji San.

Not only Changsheng listened attentively. Even the other people in the room, including Mrs. Ji, also listened to it with relish.

Ji Xiaolian came at this time.

“…… Princess Changning sent someone over, and somehow, the princess knew that I had a sister in Beijing, so she specially sent someone to ask my sister to go to the tea party together. …… Princess Xu wanted to hear about the disaster outside and the situation of the thieves, and happened to know that her sisters were from Ren'an Mansion......"

Everyone in the room was stunned.

"I can't help it, if my sister doesn't go, I'm afraid that the princess will blame me. She may say something in front of the Queen Mother and Long Live Lord, my father and second uncle are afraid that it will be difficult to get along. …… Xiaotang didn't go. Or Xiaoyun goes, or ......, as long as you go to one, the princess will be able to explain. Ji Xiaolian showed a helpless look.

"It doesn't matter who she is, what I say, what if I don't go!" Mrs. Ji looked left and right, and when she saw that Ji Xiaotang didn't speak, she straightened her face and stared at her eyes to speak.

Ji Xiaolian was speechless for a moment.

Ji Xiaotang and Mrs. Ji didn't speak.

"We're not going!" Mrs. Ji then instructed Ji Xiaolian, "Go and call your father and your mother, I will tell them!" ”

Ji Xiaolian didn't expect things to develop like this, and she was already dumbfounded. She had already heard Mrs. Ji say that Mrs. Ji was domineering, but it was just at home, she didn't expect that when she heard the name of Princess Changning, Mrs. Ji would be like this.

Is Mrs. Ji really ignorant to this extent!

"Old lady, this ......" things don't work out like this!

Seeing that Ji Xiaolian didn't listen to her, Mrs. Ji became more and more angry.

"Okay, okay, I can't call you, and I can't call the eldest lord and the eldest wife. I'll go find them myself, and they will be able to close the door and not see me! As Mrs. Ji spoke, she was about to get up angrily.

Ji Xiaolian was completely stunned, and her face turned red.

She has never seen a person like Mrs. Ji, why is her thinking completely different from that of the ladies of the houses in Beijing, what about the reason, what about decency, how to say that she will turn her face!

In this matter, they should have curried favor with her and begged her.

Mrs. Ji got up when she was busy and went to persuade Mrs. Ji.

Ji Xiaotang turned around and raised Ji Xiaolian in a low voice: "Grandmother and my mother don't know the situation in the capital. For such a thing, it is natural to invite the eldest aunt to come over and discuss it together. Grandmother relied on her aunt very much, and in this matter, she naturally listened to her aunt. If the big sister continues to be here, it is inevitable that she will ...... (suffer), it's better to go and call the eldest aunt quickly. ”

"Grandmother, my mother and I are persuaded by me and the eldest sister, and the eldest sister can rest assured."

Whether Ji Xiaotang will go to the tea party or not is ultimately decided by Mrs. Ji. This also means that Mrs. Ji will have to bear the responsibility for the consequences of Ji Xiaotang's departure.

In addition, Ji Xiaotang relieved Ji Xiaolian in front of Mrs. Ji, and Ji Xiaolian owed Ji Xiaotang a favor.

The corners of Ji Xiaolian's mouth twitched, and she had to get up and leave to find Mrs. Ji.

Seeing Ji Xiaolian go away, Mrs. Ji stopped making noise.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Ji asked Ji Xiaotang.

"Grandmother doesn't have to ask, when the eldest aunt comes, everything will be up to the eldest aunt." Ji Xiaotang smiled and said.
