Chapter 32: Dark Waves
East Mansion, Songcui Temple, East Chamber.
Mother Fang sat on the brocade pestle of the dark purple late winter flowers, embroidering things, and looking at Cui Wanqing with some worry, who was concentrating on embroidering and wiping her forehead.
Without paying attention, the needle in her hand poked into the flesh, and she subconsciously gasped.
"Mama is really, it's distracted when embroidering, it's strange not to be poked." Cui Wanqing hurriedly threw the forehead wipes in her hand into the embroidery basket on the desk, pinched Fang's mother's hand with a handkerchief, frowned and complained.
Mother Fang's eyes turned red somehow, "God doesn't know what I'm thinking?" Why can't you live a few days of comfort? It's only been quiet for a few days? She used another trick, Miss, you must not marry her. ”
Cui Wanqing took away the handkerchief, saw that there was no blood, poured the handkerchief cleanly, and wiped Fang's mother's tears.
Comforted softly: "Don't be sad, Mama, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and I believe that my grandmother will not ignore me." ”
Cui Wanqing patted her shoulder comfortingly, sat upright again, picked up the embroidered forehead with a little half, and began to embroider it seriously, this fabric is a sky blue flash, depicting her grandmother's favorite begonia flower.
"Marry the Bian family and be a widow? I don't want to, but if you come to ask for marriage over there, with the one in the palace, you can't keep it and you have to be sent out by the family again, last time it was sent to the fire pit, this time it was sent to do **? Cui Wanqing smiled at the corner of her mouth, secretly thinking that no matter whether she was the fifth miss of Cui Mansion or the ninth miss, she really couldn't be idle at all these days.
"It's better to rely on yourself than to ask for others, I don't know if my grandmother will like the forehead embroidered by myself?" Thinking of this, Cui Wanqing suddenly twisted her face and asked, "Mama, did you say that on this forehead, are we inlaid with gems or pearls?" ”
Mother Fang looked at Cui Wanqing's hand, embroidered a third of the pattern, and muttered for a moment, "The slave maid remembers that the old lady loves Dongzhu and Lufei the most, but after all these years, I don't know if her old man's preferences have changed?" ”
Cui Wanqing curled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "This sky-blue forehead is inlaid with eastern pearls, and the goose yellow brocade is inlaid with green jade." ”
Cui Wanqing didn't believe Fang's mother's words, she hadn't seen her for many years, she just didn't want to think about it too much, presumably these two things were her grandmother's favorites.
Under the daily hustle and bustle, the sixth day of the eighth month soon arrived, and the night before, Mrs. Cui specially left Cui Wanqing.
Not only did he appreciate two sets of clothes with high-quality fabrics and exquisite workmanship, a set of white jade beaded heads, a white jade bird pressed skirt, and a red gold double luan Yingluo collar, but also carefully talked about the objects on the gift list, so that his granddaughter could know it.
Cui Wanqing listened carefully and quietly, and secretly guessed the calculations in her grandmother's heart, and guessed seven or eight points, I am afraid that she will use the Ming'an Hou Mansion to ensure that she is safe.
Although it coincided with what she planned, she really didn't know what it was like to think that her family was in the way of the nobles in the palace and couldn't support herself.
It's just that the current shape is stronger than others, and he can only follow the trend.
"After all, the old lady is also planning for herself, isn't she?" Cui Wanqing thought about it, and the expression on her face softened unconsciously.
"I have instructed Mother Shu to prepare my carriage, you will take that car tomorrow, Mother Shu and your grandmother will go together, your grandmother's house, your status is noble, and the rules are also big, with the two of them taking care of you, I can rest assured." Old Madam Cui rubbed Cui Wanqing's hair and whispered.
Cui Wanqing's eyes were full of gratitude, and she leaned on her grandmother's body, "Grandmother, don't worry, Ming'er's granddaughter will definitely be cautious in her words and deeds, and she will never lose your face, so you can rest assured." ”
Old Madam Cui felt Cui Wanqing's complete relaxation, the expression in her eyes was obscure, and she didn't say much, just subconsciously followed Cui Wanqing's back and stroked it gently.
After a long time, he sighed in a suppressed voice: "Okay, it's not early, tomorrow will have you toss a day, let's rest early." ”
Cui Wanqing's actions were not deliberate, she was really greedy for this warmth, whether it was Fang's mother's concern, or Yingqiao and Brother Li's loyalty, she felt that she felt that this feeling was quite rare.
"Maybe I was too lonely and lonely in my previous life, but I felt a little bit of this in this life, so I subconsciously wanted to hold on tightly!" Cui Wanqing stood up reluctantly, and said goodbye to the old lady with nostalgia in her eyes.
"Miss Nine is getting closer and closer to you, looking at her eyes, I'm afraid I don't want to leave at all." Fu Hui smiled and helped the old lady Cui to get up, and waited for her old man to bathe with Jasmine and a few maids.
Mrs. Cui didn't take Fu Hui for the first time, she was silent all the way, and she didn't have much energy at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she was obviously not in a very good mood.
Fu Rui sighed secretly in her heart, "Miss Nine, you can ask for more blessings, the maid can help as much as she can, but her ability is limited, and the old lady is a person who cares about the overall situation, so don't blame the servant." ”
Cui Wanqing has been living in Dongfu since she arrived, and she has really bought a lot of clothes and jewelry, but only the amount of Mrs. Cui's side is already considerable.
Coupled with the old lady's reward, together, it is really more than the new clothes that Cui Wanqing has made in the past four or five years.
I went to pay my birthday today, and the clothes I wore were already selected last night, and Fang's mother and great-mother's mother helped to palm, and they specially chose two sets that were both festive and good.
At this time, Cui Wanqing in the mirror, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, a lychee red skirt with pine mist sara, a bow with a long spike and a five-color palace silk tied around her waist, like ink hair on her sideburns, just right hairpin to shake the bead flowers, innocent and innocent when she smiled.
The people who were waiting beside her couldn't help but sigh that Cui Wanqing, who was dressed up seriously, although she couldn't compare to the stunning Cui Wanyun, she also had a delicate and lovely beauty that she didn't usually have.
"Miss is so beautiful, you were born to dress up so beautifully." Brother Li praised with joy in his eyes.
Cui Wanqing twisted her face and smiled, "I said that I wouldn't let you get up early to serve, I was a tough person, I just refused to be obedient, and I really had to let Mama take care of you." ”
Brother Li accompanied him and said with a smile: "Good young lady, the maid is already ready, although I can't accompany you out of the house, but it's okay to bring a cup of tea and a piece of water." ”
"This kid is really a down-to-earth and hard-working, Miss is so blessed." Fang's mother praised Brother Li, and at the same time put the water-red orchid embroidered shawl in her hand on Cui Wanqing.
Fang Aya waited for her to change into pink embroidered shoes with orchid beads embroidered with ink silk, and this dress for the banquet was completed.
The group hugged Cui Wanqing and went to the room to say goodbye to Mrs. Cui, the old lady saw Cui Wanqing, who was very fresh, her smiling eyes were gone, and she pulled Cui Wanqing and instructed her carefully for a long time, and then let her go.
I have to say that Mrs. Cui's carriage is spacious and stable, and every case in it contains the low-key luxury unique to the family.
On the half-old purple nan wood furniture, it is either inlaid with tortoiseshell mica or jewelry stones, this simple and heavy sense of luxury makes Cui Wanqing's heart feel a little heavy.
"In my previous life, why was he so flashy?" Cui Wanqing stretched out her hand and gently brushed the wood grain on the desk, secretly feeling that in terms of enjoying life, she should still learn more from Lao Taijun
