Chapter 33: Circumstance
Yanran said deliberately: "Sister Yuejuan's words, let me not be able to accept it, and if I don't accept it, I won't be able to do it!" The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Between Yanran and Zeng Zhixian, it seems that something is beginning to dissipate, no longer like the original.
The three of them were still laughing, and the little girl had already walked in: "Miss, the old lady sent some things, saying that Sister Yanran should make some purse needlework and thread, and it will be a good New Year!" Zeng Zhixian nodded, Yan Ran had already stepped forward to take the things, Zeng Zhixian smiled at the things in Yan Ran's hand: "These purses, if you want to do them for a while, Yan Ran can do them." I'm here, it's good to have Yuejuan to serve! β
Yanran should retreat, Yuejuan put the curtain down before saying to Zeng Zhixian: "It's good that Miss is like this, Yanran is always given by the old lady, treat her well, and you're good to Miss!" Zeng Zhixian had already put away the smile on his face, and pressed his forehead with his hand tiredly: "Being a man is so difficult!" β
"Yanran is also a smart and steady person, not so frivolous! Miss, I can't spend many days with you, and it's rare to be like this! Yuejuan's words only made Zeng Zhixian smile lightly: "I know, but Yuejuan, people's hearts are always unpredictable, always wait for later, slowly!" β
How could Yuejuan not understand the change in Zeng Zhixian's personality after the great change, she wanted to sigh but didn't know where to sigh, when she saw Zeng Zhixian unfold her pen and paper, she knew that she was going to copy Buddhist scriptures, and she was busy serving her to polish ink and copy.
Yanran has done needlework for two or three days, and has made a few purses, and has served Zeng Zhixian this day, and was about to go back to his room to continue to do needlework, Guo'er came running: "Sister Yanran, the old lady asked you to go up and ask, how are those purses doing!" β
Yan Ran responded, hurriedly went to the upper room, Zeng Zhixian inside heard it, and frowned slightly: "You say, grandmother, will she be?" Yuejuan knew what Zeng Zhixian was asking, and comforted her: "The old lady is reasonable, besides, the old lady also feels sorry for the eldest lady!" β
is not a biological grandmother, but she can do what she is now, even if it is out of consideration for the reputation of the Zeng family, it is already good! Zeng Zhixian remembered that when he went to Qin's house that day, Mrs. Qin's words were recited, and she tightened the clothes on her body, the Zeng family always treated each other with brocade clothes and jade food, and the things left by her father and mother were also in her hands, and it was indeed a little inappropriate to think about it again.
Yan Ran entered the upper room, Mrs. Zeng asked Yan Ran about the needlework she made, Yan Ran answered one by one, and Mrs. Zeng nodded: "I know that you are a proper one, your uncle is there, and now it is good!" This sentence made Yan Ran frightened at first, and then calmed down, just lowered her head and thought about it, then raised her head and smiled: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the old lady." That day, the prince came to tell the eldest lady, and the eldest lady was worried about it, but the uncle's wife also came to say, saying that the words of Jingzhong were very bad. The eldest lady was anxious, thin-skinned, and afraid of being ridiculed by the prince, so she ordered me to visit my aunt! β
After listening to Yanran's words, Old Madam Zeng nodded and said, "They have already made a marriage, and this matter is not too polite." It's just that your eldest lady did this, which shows that I am not her own grandmother after all, and there is still a gap! β
"What you said, old lady, I'm going to dismiss it! How could the eldest lady not understand how well you treated her, old lady? It's just that the eldest lady is the daughter of the boudoir who has not been out of the cabinet after all, and she is not polite and incivil. A daughter in a boudoir wants someone to bring something to a man, although the man is his fiancΓ©, but if there is that winter baking, I am afraid that he will also say a few words. The eldest lady has a tender face, and even the prince is embarrassed to say to him, let alone the old lady? β
Old Madam Zeng looked at Yan Ran, and then laughed: "You kid, you are becoming more and more clever, these words are both tactful and reasonable!" I'm not going to say anything about it. Hugh said that it is not my own granddaughter, even if it is my own granddaughter, you look at Sister Min, after all, she is a little more intimate with her mother. This is also a human thing. Like you, it's good. It's a pity that there are too few like you! β
Seeing that the old lady Zeng was a little thirsty, she hurriedly brought a bowl of tea: "I've just been by the old lady's side for a long time, and I've only learned a little bit." Where did you become a rare person? As long as the old lady doesn't blame the eldest lady for making her own decisions, blame me for not telling the old lady first, it's enough! β
Old Mrs. Zeng took the tea brought by Yan Ran and drank it before saying, "You, the more you praise, the more you praise, good is really good, and bad is really bad." I'm just young now, and I want to live an easy life for a few years, and I don't care about those who pretend to be ghosts. I know very well what is going on in this house! β
"Who can fool the old lady into going?" Yanran's words made Mrs. Zeng smile again, and when Yanran saw Mrs. Zeng smile, she said goodbye: "The old lady has also finished asking, I should also go back and continue to do needlework, otherwise it will be a big mistake for the old lady to reward people for the New Year!" β
Mrs. Zeng nodded, and called Cui Sleeve, Cui Sleeve lifted the curtain and walked in, and Mrs. Zeng had already ordered: "Didn't Mrs. Qian'er come to look for something with me, find out a few pieces of jewelry from my youth, that color, your wife is too tender to wear." You take out the box of rubies, send them to your eldest lady, and wait a few days to wear them. β
Cui Sleeves answered and was about to look for it, but Mrs. Zeng stopped her again: "You take out the pair of gold bracelets and the pair of garnet red earrings and give them to Sister Yanran, she is also getting older, and this color jewelry looks good when you wear it!" β
Give Zeng Zhixian a box of ruby head, Cui Sleeve will not feel anything, but it can be rewarded to Yan Ran, Cui Sleeve is a little rowing in his heart, but the face is still not brought out, go in to find something, Yan Ran hurriedly said: "Old lady, you want to reward me, also look for something, this thing is too valuable!" β
Cui Sleeve has come out with a box, and he also holds the pair of gold silk bracelets and garnet red earrings in his hand, the garnet red earrings, the ruby on the top is not big, and the rare color is very pure. Mrs. Zeng had already taken the things, took Yanran's hand and put the bracelet on the earrings for her, this garnet red earring, a little on the white tender earlobe, it seems that Yanran's earlobe is white and shiny.
Old Madam Zeng didn't allow Yanran to take this thing off: "You are fourteen years old after the New Year, big girl." It's time to dress up, it's time to wear some jewelry, how can you still be like a little girl, don't wear any jewelry? β
"The old lady's eyesight is so good, Sister Yanran wears this garnet red earring, very beautiful!" Naturally, Emerald Sleeves will not let go of this opportunity to be touted. Old Madam Zeng's eyes narrowed when she smiled: "Young girl's house, it is the Lili Suo who should be dressed up beautifully, so that she looks good, instead of shrinking her neck, what is that said?" β
"The old lady's words, I wrote it down, in the future, in front of the old lady, I must be beautiful and beautiful, and not embarrass the old lady!" can be selected to be next to Mrs. Zeng to be a first-class, of course, Cui Sleeve is not a stupid person, and hurriedly smiled and complimented. Old Madam Zeng looked at Yanran again, and then let go of her hand: "In the future, it's a big girl, you have to dress up like a big girl, go back!" β
Yan Ran should be, and went out with Cui Sleeve, Cui Sleeve brought the box of ruby jewelry to Zeng Zhixian's room, Zeng Zhixian listened to Cui Sleeve's words, and hurriedly asked Yuejuan to accept the box jewelry, and let Cui Sleeve sit down and drink tea.
Cui Sleeve naturally didn't dare to sit down and drink tea, but said with a smile: "The old lady has always loved the eldest lady, and even the most important Yanran around her has been given to the eldest lady." β
"Yanran is indeed stable and proper!" Zeng Zhixian only responded to this sentence, and Cui Sleeves smiled: "The old lady also rewarded Yanran jewelry, saying that she is already a big girl, so she should dress up better, the old lady is really thoughtful!" β
Zeng Zhixian's eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, who can't hear such an obvious provocation? When you are a three-year-old? Zeng Zhixian didn't speak, Yuejuan had already taken the reward money and walked over, and put it in Cui Sleeve's hand: "Sister Cui Sleeve has worked hard, and the old lady has to serve you!" β
Cui Sleeve took the reward and hurriedly thanked the reward and retired.
"Miss, Cui Sleeve and Qing Dang are very good, Qing Dang complains about Yan Ran, and Cui Sleeve will also make a stumbling block for Yan Ran!" As soon as Yuejuan waited for Cui Sleeves to leave, she hurriedly opened her mouth to defend Yanran.
"I know that I don't have any other thoughts about Yanran, after all, she is the person my grandmother gave me, and she is usually loyal to her grandmother!" Zeng Zhixian glanced at Yuejuan before he said slowly. Is it self-defeating? Yuejuan hurriedly reflected on whether she was wrong? After all, in Yuejuan's view, it is impossible for her to marry with Zeng Zhixian, so only Yanran is the best candidate to marry Zeng Zhixian. Zeng Zhixian's trust in Yanran is beneficial to both parties.
"Miss, the old lady just rewarded me with two pieces of jewelry, and Sister Cui Sleeve is not good to come and tell you when she is here!" Yuejuan was still thinking, Yanran had already lifted the curtain and walked in, and when she was talking to Zeng Zhixian, she had reached out to get the earrings on her ears, Zeng Zhixian stopped her: "You wear what your grandmother rewards, grandmother's eyesight is really good, this pair of earrings, it's just right for you to wear them!" β
Although this red color is positive, the stone is only the size of a grain of rice, and it is just right to make a small clove, but it is decorated with two pearls, and the ladies and ladies wear it, and they can't help but be stingy. Yanran heard Zeng Zhixian say this, so she put down her hand and said to Zeng Zhixian: "The old lady is always my ......"
"I know these things, Yanran, who in this house can not listen to grandmother?" Zeng Zhixian's words seemed to be infinitely gloomy, and Yanran couldn't help but whisper: "Miss, the old lady treats you not just for the reputation of the Zeng family!" "Raising a kitten and a puppy, I can't bear it after a long time, let alone a big living person?
This is the first time that Yanran has spoken out to Zeng Zhixian, and Zeng Zhixian also smiled: "I hope you are right!" β
