002: The maid delivers clothes
With Mu Jinge's words, Mu Huanyan naturally moved to Lanxingju quickly, because this was originally designed by their mother and daughter, and they wanted to lure Mu Jinge into the game. Of course, that's only when Mu Huanyan in the previous life saw them as relatives and believed it, as for now? I can only laugh......
Lanxingju is undoubtedly much more luxurious than the small courtyard where Mu Huanyan originally lived, and the high-end mahogany furniture all shows the majesty of the General's Mansion, but living here, Mu Huanyan's mood is not as happy as in his previous life. Because she knew that the road ahead was full of thorns, and this was just the beginning.
"Eldest Miss, Second Miss's birthday party is about to start, hurry up and dress up." Wang took Mu Huanyan's hand and asked her to sit in front of the dresser.
At this time, two maids came, one in red and the other in blue. One of them said: "Eldest Miss, this is the clothes and jewelry that Madame asked the maidservants to send, Madame is worried that the eldest lady will not have suitable clothes for a while to attend the banquet, and she will lose the face of our General's Mansion, this dress is made of fine cloud brocade, and it was originally made for the second lady." The second lady is humble, and she gave this dress to you, so you better change it quickly. The maid said, with a hint of disdain on her face.
Mu Huanyan couldn't help but stare at her coldly, the chill in her eyes almost froze the air in the room, obviously startling the maid. However, the chill was gone in an instant. Mu Huanyan said slowly: "Since my mother made clothes for me, it means that she still has my daughter in her heart, and as for my sister's willingness to give me Yunjin who makes her clothes, it is our sisterhood." No matter how poor I am, I am also the eldest daughter of the general, which can be described as a veritable general's daughter, even if I am such a noble identity, how can I lose the face of the general's mansion! If my mother thinks I'm ashamed, how can she take me out of the small courtyard on the south side, are you trying to embarrass my mother by talking like this? ”
The maid was really taken aback by Mu Huanyan's words, she didn't expect that the eldest lady who had been living in the small courtyard in the south would speak so sharply. Mu Huan's words revealed that she was the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, with a noble status, and emphasized that it was Mrs. who picked her up from the small courtyard in the south, and she was afraid that she would turn over in the future. The maid hurriedly knelt on the ground and said nervously: "Miss, I'm sorry, the maid didn't mean that, the maid has always been speechless and can't speak, and I ask the eldest lady to forgive ......" Another maid with jewelry also quickly knelt down together.
Mu Huanyan squinted at the two of them with cold eyes, and although the two maids hung their heads, they could still feel Mu Huanyan's inviolable appearance.
"Nurse, take the clothes and jewelry, and as for those I don't want to see, let them get out of my sight at once."
Wang took the things, and the two maids quickly got up, blessed their bodies, and ran away.
Wang looked at the goose-yellow clothes and jewelry, with a smile on his face, "Huan Yan, you haven't worn new clothes for a long time, the quality, workmanship and style of this dress are very suitable for you, wear this dress, and at the birthday banquet for a while, I don't know how many sons and daughters of wealthy families to attract, and I can find a good family." ”
"Jewelry left, tear clothes!" Mu Huanyan said seriously, without a little hesitation.
"This ......" Wang's eyebrows were twisted, and he didn't understand what Mu Huanyan meant, why did he tear this beautiful dress? Of course, Wang didn't understand, there was pollen on this clothes, Mu Huanyan had always been allergic to pollen, and once it was stained with pollen, his body would be extremely itchy. Madame had brought this dress to make her look ugly at the banquet, and she still remembered the scene at which the crowd had seen her laugh.
Mu Huanyan knew Wang's question, and said softly: "Nurse, you carefully check that dress." ”
Wang looked at the clothes over and over again, put them in his nose and asked, only then did he find something unusual, threw the clothes there, and said angrily: "You are well known to be allergic to pollen, and Madame, this is too much, and I will go to find scissors." ”
"Wait."
Mu Huanyan suddenly called out to the Wang family.
"What else does the young lady command?"
"Nurse, this dress is yellow, and the pollen stains the clothes are also yellow, Madame is using a trick, and she doesn't want me to find out, if I don't wear this dress, she will definitely be suspicious. Fortunately, the weather is good today, so you hurry up and get a basin of hot water. ”
"Okay."
Wang made a basin of boiling water, Mu Huanyan asked her to shake her clothes vigorously, then wrung out a towel dipped in hot water, and gently wiped her clothes.
"Will this work?" Wang asked.
"I can't completely clean the pollen off my clothes, but I can clean some of it, and a little bit won't make any difference to me."
Mu Jinge's birthday was in the early spring, when everything recovered, and all the plants in the yard were sprouting, a thriving scene.
Yuxiuju has long been a guest, this residence is a place for the general's mansion to entertain guests and banquets, not too luxurious and not too shabby, but has a fresh and peaceful color, which is very in line with Mu Yaotian's moderation posture. ,
There are many noble ladies who come and go, and they are followed by their personal maids and mothers, all of whom are dressed up beautifully and moving, in fact, this kind of banquet is nothing more than a way to help the sons and daughters of wealthy families choose a husband and wife, and others will naturally not let it go.
Mu Huanyan followed the Wang family and was walking towards Yuxiuju, not far away, Mu Jinge was wearing a pink dress, wearing a gauze shirt of the same color, and the skirt was embroidered with various colors of peony flowers, peony flowers have always been her favorite, and because peony is the king of flowers, this is something that Mu Huanyan knows very well. Mu Jinge's maid mother behind her was surrounded by each other, talking and laughing, highlighting her favored status in the General's Mansion.
It just so happened that Mu Jinge also saw Mu Huanyan, and then quickly walked towards Mu Huanyan. "Sister." She called out cordially, and the maid mother behind her symbolically saluted her, and then followed closely behind Mu Jinge.
When facing Mu Jinge, Mu Huanyan clearly saw that there was a red mole on Mu Jinge's eyebrows, and there was no doubt that the only difference between her own was that the red mole on Mu Jinge's eyebrows was real, while Mu Jinge's was fake.
"Sister, I'm so beautiful today, but I can compare all the ladies in the yard." Although Mu Huanyan didn't want to say such a thing, she knew that praise could make a person's IQ drop quickly, so she still said such a sentence very naturally, and she didn't see anything unusual at all.
Sure enough, Mu Jinge's face showed a touch of joy, holding a handkerchief and covering her face, she was extremely shy, she already had delicate makeup on her face, and the jewelry on her body was also the best in the entire mansion, which made her look extremely beautiful. In contrast, Mu Huanyan's plain appearance can't be compared with her, plus she has just recovered from a serious illness, her face is pale, and she is living a bitter cold life in the South Courtyard, so she looks even more thin and weak.
"Sister's mouth is so sweet, let's not delay here yet, let's go over and sit down." Mu Jinge took the initiative to hold Mu Huanyan's hand and led her forward.
"Second sister."
Mu Jinge and Mu Huanyan turned their heads at the same time, Mu Huanyan saw the third sister Mu Yunchu, she was wearing a light purple cardigan, lined with a floral long skirt, with a hairpin ring on her head, and her skin was like goose fat.
"It's the third sister, come and see the eldest sister." Mu Jinge has always maintained her gentle and virtuous appearance, and of course she will not let go of such a good thing to win over the feelings of her sisters.
Mu Yunchu snorted coldly, glanced at Mu Huanyan with the rest of his eyes, then looked at Mu Jinge with a smile, and said, "I don't even know who she is, isn't your sister the only one in the mansion?" ”
Mu Huanyan didn't care about this kind of hurtful words anymore, her heart was already like ice at the moment, but hatred made her live in the world.
Mu Jinge had a blank face, glared at Mu Yunchu, and said in a blaming tone: "Yunchu, you are too ignorant, you keep calling me second sister, how can you say that there is only one sister in the house, the eldest sister was just recuperating and rarely went out before, but now the eldest sister is in good health, her mother has asked her to move out of Lanxingju, her identity is above me, I have to call me the eldest sister, how can you be like this?" ”
Tut-tut...... is so beautiful, Mu Huanyan in the previous life was gradually bought by Mu Jinge, and she poured out her heart and lungs, which is such a beautiful word, so that the mother-in-law and maids in the house feel that Mu Jinge is the most knowledgeable and tolerant lady. But how could Mu Huanyan, who had relived a lifetime, believe it lightly?
Mu Yunchu's eyes drooped slightly, his long eyelashes were like butterfly wings resting there, and his red lips pursed gently.
"What's the matter, you're still coquettish, do you blame me for saying something serious?"
Mu Yunchu raised his head and wanted to speak, but Mu Huanyan immediately spoke: "Jin Ge, it's not in the way, I'm the boss, how can I have a plan with the third sister, the third sister is young, I must not be ignorant and angry with her?" The words are full of tolerant words, but in fact, they are telling everyone how ignorant this third sister is!
Mu Yunchu's eyebrows frowned deeply, his teeth were bitten lightly, and he pointed at Mu Huanyan and said, "You, you are too much, you coffin boy, I won't recognize you as my eldest sister!" ”
Coffin boy! These three words hammered into the ears of everyone present. The mother-in-law and maids in the back talked in low voices, these are three words that are very taboo in the general's mansion, and Mu Yaotian also ordered that the mansion is not allowed to talk about itself.
The Wang family's body behind Mu Huanyan also shook, and he was so angry that his hands were tightly clenched together, Mu Huanyan just frowned slightly, and suddenly saw Mu Yaotian walking towards this side not far away. So he had an idea, with a crying face, and said uncomfortably: "Third sister, I don't know where to make you unhappy, how can you say that I am a coffin boy?" "The people in the General's Mansion basically know that she is a coffin boy, but they can't say it clearly, now that Mu Yunchu said so, how could Mu Huanyan let go of such a great opportunity.
Obviously, these words played a role, Mu Yaotian's face sank, and without saying a word, he rushed forward and slapped Mu Yunchu in the face.
