Chapter 17: The Same Cup
A group of unmarried girls followed Miss Fu Liu and Miss Fu Qi into the Red Maple Residence.
The red maple house is full of maple trees, but it is not yet the season when the maple leaves turn red, and there is oil and green everywhere, and seven small wooden buildings are scattered among the green trees, which is as beautiful as a Western oil painting.
Xu Cancan likes Hongfengju very much, and he couldn't help but look at it again and again after Xu Yilian, his eyes were full of admiration. Xu Yilian took a slightly full step, walked side by side with Xu Cancan, and whispered with a smile on her face: "The Dingguo Mansion is beautiful, right?" ”
Xu Cancan nodded.
Xu Yilian smiled again: "The palace is more beautiful!" ”
Xu Cancan: "......" didn't expect that Xu Yilian, who has always been old-fashioned, would also have a lively time.
The banquet had already been arranged, and all the attendants were maids in red dresses.
The girls who could come to the Dingguo Mansion to participate in the banquet were all from noble backgrounds, and many of them were related to each other, and they were soon divided into different camps. Xu Yilian has not joined any camp for the time being, but is looking at the roses outside the building with Xu Cancan.
There was a sound of "Sister Lian" from behind, Xu Cancan hurriedly turned around to look, and found that it was three girls in gorgeous clothes. These girls didn't look at Xu Cancan, but only looked at Xu Yilian: "Sister Lian, we are all waiting for you!" ”
"Minrong, Yunrong, Ami!" Xu Yilian walked over with a smile.
The three girls hugged Xu Yilian and walked towards the building.
Xu Yilian also seemed to have forgotten Xu Cancan, and she didn't look back to follow these cousins.
Xu Cancan was most afraid of being isolated, so he followed cheekily and followed Xu Yilian.
Xu Yilian and her three cousins walked to the square table and prepared to sit down, Xu Cancan was about to sit down next to Xu Yilian's cousin, Xu Yilian beckoned to her: "Second sister, come over here!" ”
Xu Cancan sat down beside Xu Yilian.
The three girls of the Han family didn't seem to see Xu Cancan, and they talked to Xu Yilian about the affairs of their relatives. Xu Cancan smiled and listened to them, as if he knew them very well. Anyway, the Han family is a poetic heirloom, and they dare not make rude acts on such occasions.
The three girls from Xu Yilian's foreign family, the Han family, were very unpleasant when they saw Xu Cancan for the first time, and they couldn't say what they were doing, so they wanted to cold her. Who knew that this country girl was so thick-skinned, she had to bake them.
As if she had just remembered, Xu Yilian introduced to Xu Cancan: "Second sister, these are the sisters of my uncle's family!" ”
Xu Cancan hurriedly got up and saluted.
The three girls of the Han family also stood up and saluted.
There is also a vacant seat next to Xu Cancan, which is the seat of the main family. Xu Cancan was guessing whether it was Miss Fu Liu or Miss Fu Qi's position, and Miss Fu Sixth walked over with the support of the maid.
Miss Fu Liu and Fu Yuchen are not like each other at all, with a small nose and small eyes, five short figures, purple begonia skin and a red gown embroidered with gold thread roses, and the skirt is also edged with gold thread, which looks very strange.
She seemed to like Xu Cancan very much, and as soon as she sat down, she accosted Xu Cancan: "Second Miss Xu, you are not doing this, your jade head is very good!" ”
Xu Cancan smiled: "It's from the eldest mother." ”
Miss Fu Liu's face was envious: "Your jade bracelet is strange and beautiful, let me wear it, right?" ”
Xu Cancan was just about to speak, Xu Yilian on the other side pinched her waist, just pinching Xu Cancan's itchy flesh, Xu Cancan couldn't help laughing, and her body involuntarily avoided Xu Yilian and tilted towards Miss Fu Liu.
Miss Fu Liu thought that Xu Cancan was close to her, so she unceremoniously pulled Xu Cancan's arm and took off the jade bracelet on Xu Cancan's wrist - Xu Cancan's skeleton was small and her wrists were thin, and she could handle it easily.
His jade bracelet instantly arrived in the hands of Miss Fu Liu, Xu Cancan was surprised in his heart, his face was calm, and he squeezed out a smile.
Miss Fu Liu was not tall, but her wrists were quite thick, and she desperately shrunk her short and fat fingers into a ball, and she didn't get into the bracelet at the least.
Xu Cancan's eyes looked at his poor jade bracelet, but he couldn't make a sound. This set of jade head lady just let her use it, and didn't say to give it to her, in case something goes wrong, she can't afford to pay for it!
Miss Fu Liu spent a long time, but she still couldn't let her fat hand get into the jade bracelet, so she had to return the bracelet to Xu Cancan. But in an instant, she found the golden silk phoenix hairpin on Xu Cancan's bun again, her eyes lit up, she stretched out her hand and pulled it out, and said with a smile: "Hey, this phoenix hairpin is beautiful!" ”
Xu Cancan smiled: "Sixth girl, this is what Madame just rewarded!" ”
Miss Fu Liu didn't seem to hear what Xu Cancan said, so she directly inserted the phoenix hairpin into her bun, regardless of the fact that there was already a similar phoenix hairpin on it.
The smile on Xu Cancan's face was even deeper, she knew what it meant to be shameless.
After eating a few bites of food, Miss Fu Liu began to pay attention to the ornaments on Xu Cancan's bun again, and after careful consideration, she repeatedly took away Xu Cancan's jade-inlaid silver distraction.
Xu Cancan took a bun in vain, and took several deep breaths before suppressing his anger. And Miss Fu Liu's head full of hairpins swayed left and right, very beautiful. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, Xu Cancan looked up, and found that Fu Qi girl strode over, her apricot eyes were shining, her pretty face was red with anger, and she couldn't help but be stunned.
Miss Fu Qi left the table just now, and when she heard the maid Yinzhu say that the sixth sister had committed her old problem again, she couldn't help but get angry and immediately walked over.
As soon as Miss Fu was beautiful for a while, she felt a lightness on her head, and she was busy covering her head to look, but she found that the seventh sister was pinching her jewelry in her hand, and she was about to speak, but she was glared back by her sister's eyes.
Miss Fu Qi apologized to Xu Cancan first, and then distracted herself from the golden silk phoenix hairpin and the jade inlaid silver and put it back into Xu Cancan's bun.
Xu Cancan hurriedly humbled a few words.
When Fu Qi girl left, she was afraid that Fu Liu girl would repeat her old tricks, so she also dragged Fu Liu away by the way.
At the end of the feast, the ladies gathered in groups to enjoy the garden. The gardens of Dingguo Mansion are well-known throughout the country, so of course you should appreciate them.
Xu Yilian found an opportunity to leave the three cousins of the Han family and took Xu Cancan to a bamboo forest against the wall, and then said, "Second sister is frightened today, right?" ”
Xu Cancan nodded again and again.
Xu Yilian covered her sleeves and smiled: "This Fu Liu girl is also a treasure in the capital, and the Dingguo Mansion is rich and rivals the country, but she just loves to take advantage." ”
Xu Cancan also smiled: "Miss Fu Qi was born very beautiful!" "Miss Fu Qi's big eyes, pointed eyes, white chin, fair skin, and high nose bridge are considered a beauty, and when she is placed with Miss Fu Liu, she doesn't look like a sister.
Xu Yilian bowed slightly, and pulled Xu Cancan onto a path.
Xu Cancan was a little thirsty, so he asked Biyun to find her some tea.
Biyun came over quickly, holding two white porcelain bowls with a tray in his hand, and gave Xu Yilian and Xu Cancan a bowl each. Xu Cancan lifted the bowl and took a look, and found that it was Pu'er, she took a sip and found that the water temperature was just right, and couldn't help laughing: "Biyun, you are so amazing!" ”
Biyun's face was a little red when he was praised.
Xu Yilian and Xu Cancan walked forward with a bowl, and just entered Luxue Nunnery through the small door, they saw a group of beautiful women with flowers and branches surrounding a bent man, not knowing what Lu Dao was doing.
Xu Yilian glanced at it, approached Xu Cancan and whispered, "Fu Yuchen's concubines!" ”
Xu Cancan was taken aback and couldn't help but look over.
The beauties were shocked and gossiped, "Childe, what's wrong with you", "Childe's concubine is so scared", "Childe, I'll help you go back to the house", but no one was willing to leave to get mouthwash for Fu Yuchen.
A gust of fragrant wind came with the wind, and the aroma was mixed with wine, which stimulated Xu Cancan to sneeze immediately.
The man who was surrounded covered his mouth when he heard the voice and straightened up, and his height above everyone made Xu Cancan immediately recognize him-Fu Yuchen.
At this time, Fu Yuchen had already changed into a white cool shirt, with a black jade belt around his slender waist, and a jade crown on his head, which looked very good.
Xu Cancan looked at Fu Yuchen in a daze.
Fu Yuchen's phoenix eyes looked at the bowl in Xu Cancan's hand.
After a while, Fu Yuchen strode over, reached out and took the white porcelain bowl in Xu Cancan's hand, he took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, feeling as if there was still a strange smell in his mouth, so he rinsed it a few more times, and drank all the tea left in the bowl after the last time.
There are a lot of people around, all of them are women, and they all watched Fu Yutan gargle and drink tea and vomit one by one. Fu Yutan was unconscious, handed the empty bowl to Xu Cancan, and turned around and left with a simple thank-you gift.
