Chapter 14 Punishment

At this time, it was evening, Xu Cancan had just left Qingxin Courtyard after school, and he met Xu Yilian and Xu Yitong, and the three sisters went to Chunhui Courtyard together.

Mrs. Xu was entertaining Hui Xin, the nun in charge of the Songshan Bodhi Nunnery, who had come from afar, and told the three sisters to play by themselves.

Xu Cancan was the main guest, and instructed Hongyun to let the mother-in-law set up a table and embroidery pier under the pine tree, and served some tea and melon and fruit snacks, and the three sisters chatted and did needlework in the sunset.

Xu Yitong didn't love female red, so he threw it aside, took an apple and played, and glanced at Xu Yilian with big eyes several times, and then asked: "Third sister, I heard that Fu Yuchen, the eldest son of the Dingguo Mansion, is eighteen years old, and he should have said that he should have said that he was married, why hasn't the sixth lady been married yet?" ”

Xu Yilian was bowing her head and embroidering a lotus flower on the white silk handkerchief, and she didn't raise her head when she heard the words: "Not only the sixth miss Fu Meiying, but also the seventh miss Fu Guiying is not married!" ”

Xu Cancan's gossip heart was sheng, and he looked at Xu Yilian with his eyes. Xu Yitong was more straightforward than her, and asked directly: "What are you for?" ”

Xu Yilian glanced up at Xu Yitong and continued to embroider: "I don't know what to do!" ”

She glanced at Xu Yitong, and then lowered her head and said that she didn't know what to do, Xu Cancan guessed one thing in her heart: Maybe it's because Fu Yuchen is a concubine, and it is unknown if the Duchess wants to recruit a son-in-law.

Xu Cancan felt that he would never be able to intersect with Fu Yuchen, so he was a little gloating when he knew that Fu Yuchen had seven sisters, but he guessed the meaning of Xu Yilian's words, but he was a little sympathetic to him!

Xu Yitong said yearningly: "Alas, I heard that Mrs. Shu is very kind to Fu Yuchen, a concubine, and she will give whatever she wants!" ”

Xu Yilian glanced at her like a fool, but didn't say anything, lowered her head and continued to embroider. This sister-in-law wants to say that her mother treats her badly, and if you think about it with your brain, you can understand Mrs. Shu's thoughts!

Xu Cancan looked at Xu Yitong's wild and beautiful face in the afterglow of the sunset, and sighed in his heart: The education of the concubine is still not as good as the concubine!

She picked up the cup and took a sip, then said, "Fourth sister, haven't you heard of 'drowning'?" ”

"Drowning?" Xu Yitong's face was ignorant, "What do you mean?" ”

Xu Han's family follows etiquette and pays attention to "a woman's lack of talent is virtue", so Xu Yilian and Xu Yitong both stopped studying after two years of school, and raised in the boudoir to serve the elders diligently. Xu Yilian was personally upbrought by Xu Han, and she treated Xu Yitong as laissez-faire.

Xu Yilian glanced up at Xu Cancan, there was no expression on her flat face, Xu Cancan hurriedly said: "If you don't know the way, forget it!" She took a big red pile yarn flower made by herself for Xu Yilian to see: "Third sister, is this flower beautiful?" ”

"It's getting more and more refined!" Xu Yilian took the pile of yarn flowers and took a closer look, "Second sister is so skillful!" ”

At this time, Xu Tinghe's three aunts walked in with the maids and came over to greet the three girls.

Xu Yitong's biological mother's surname is Wei, who was originally a flower girl in Yuwangtai, who was raised by Xu Tinghe as an outer room, and only when Xu Yitong was ten years old did he get Xu Han's consent to take him in. She was born very similar to Xu Yitong, tall and plump, with big eyes and red lips and three-dimensional facial features, wearing a rose-red cardigan, she is a wild beauty.

She was deeply favored by Xu Tinghe, so she was a little proud, and after a little blessing, she got up, looked at the pile of yarn flowers in Xu Cancan's hand and said with a smile: "If the second girl likes to pile yarn flowers, I have more there, let the maid send you some!" ”

Xu Cancan glanced at Xu Yilian, saw that she was sitting precariously without saying a word, and knew that she was the most respectful and humble, so he smiled and said, "Xie Lu Aunt Xie." I'm just playing with it, and I don't usually wear it much! ”

She really doesn't like to wear yarn flowers, and she doesn't usually wear them, she only loves those gold and jade gemstone jewelry, and occasionally wears seasonal flowers when she is serving.

Aunt Wei was about to speak, but Aunt Yin on the side glanced at Xu Cancan, her eyes flashed, and she pulled Aunt Wei's sleeve: "Sister, let's ask the old lady to go!" ”

Aunt Yin and the tall and plump Aunt Wei are just the opposite, they are still small, with a slender figure and beautiful facial features, wearing a silver-patterned cicada yarn silk dress and a jade flower skirt, which looks quite pitiful.

Xu Cancan had long recognized Aunt Yin as the maid beside her grandmother back then, her name was Green Cloud, five years ago, the Yellow River flooded Xu Shunhe bought Green Cloud from the victims, thinking about waiting for Xu Cancan, but was asked to leave by Mrs. Xu! Xu Cancan remembered that when he bought Luyun, his father not only did not take the opportunity to lower the price, but in addition to being worth silver, he also gave Luyun's father and brother a lot of grain and rice to save their lives! She just didn't expect that Luyun was given to her uncle by the old lady when she was thirteen years old three years ago. Looking at the sixteen-year-old Green Cloud and thinking about the thirty-five-year-old uncle, Xu Cancan felt a little disgusting.

Aunt Yin glanced back at Xu Cancan, and pulled Aunt Wei away like a gust of wind.

The rest of Aunt Sun also hurried up. She looks like she is in her twenties, with a round face and almond eyes, and a medium stature, she is the biological mother of the fifth girl Xu Yilan, and she is also the maid of Mrs. Xu.

Xu Yilian took the interaction between Aunt Yin and Xu Cancan in her eyes, but continued to embroider quietly.

Xu Yitong looked at the back of his biological mother blankly, and couldn't tell what it was like. Before she was ten years old, she lived in the house on Qingshi Street with her biological mother, Aunt Wei, at that time, her father was hurt, her mother was loved, how free and happy, where is it like now, being detained by her mother, and her sister taught this, like a bird in a cage, it is really uncomfortable!

She looked at Xu Yilian, who was concentrating on embroidery, and Xu Cancan, who was focusing on making piles of yarn flowers, and felt jealous in her heart. Xu Yilian is a grandson, her father's official position is getting higher and higher, her grandmother will definitely tell her a good family business, and the future scenery is certain; Although Xu Cancan is from a small family, her father has already signed up for her election, if she becomes a palace concubine in the future, she will be decent, not only herself, but even Xu Yilian will have to kowtow when she sees her......

Xu Cancan seemed to be concentrated, but he was really distracted. She didn't expect Fu Yuchen, who was known as the first tyrant in the capital three years ago, to be in such a difficult situation. Xu Cancan put herself in his shoes and thought about it, she was really sympathetic - she forgot that she was now far away from her parents and involuntarily in a situation that was not as good as Fu Yuchen!

As soon as she freshened up at night, Mei Xue, the big girl beside Xu Han's, came over with a burden. She carried her burden and saluted: "Second girl, this is what Mrs. asked you to send here!" ”

Xu Cancan ordered Xiaoxiang to take the burden, be polite, and say some words of thanks.

It was already late, so Mei Xue didn't stay long, and she retired.

Xu Cancan gave Biyun a look, and Biyun immediately stuffed a piece of broken silver that she had just taken out from the bedroom to Mei Xue. Mei Xue was in a good mood when she got the silver, and whispered: "That set of noodles is the wife's dowry, it is very valuable, don't lose it!" ”

Biyun thanked Mei Xue and sent Mei Xue out.

After Mei Xue left, Biyun took another candlestick and lit it to make the room brighter, and then opened the baggage for Xu Cancan to see.

When Xu Cancan saw Mei Xue coming in, she thought that the eldest lady was afraid that she would embarrass the Shilang Mansion, so she prepared in advance the hairpin ring jewelry and dress that she would wear to the Dingguo Mansion tomorrow, and she really guessed it.

Biyun placed the objects on the bed in order so that Xu Cancan could inspect them.

Biyun opened the flat red lacquer box, inside was a complete set of jade heads, green like a crystal clear lake, hairpins, step rocks, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc., all inlaid with silver, so beautiful that it made people palpitate.

Xu Cancan rubbed it, and his heartbeat was faster.

Biyun put away her head and face, and took the dress for Xu Cancan to see.

Xu Cancan unfolded the dress and found that it was an embroidered white magnolia gown and a turquoise floor-length pleated phoenix tail skirt, which looked very beautiful.

She loves beautiful clothes and things the most, and she immediately liked it very much, and ordered Biyun to take it well, so as not to wrinkle.

When I greeted the old lady early the next morning, the three sisters got together and found that they were all dressed up, and they couldn't help but have some comparisons.

Xu Cancan is a jadeite inlaid silver head, embroidered white magnolia gown and a turquoise floor-length pleated phoenix tail skirt, which looks beautiful, pure and elegant; Xu Yilian's facial features are plain, in order not to let the jewelry and clothes press down, she wears a set of gold-inlaid red coral heads, a cardigan embroidered with light pink peach blossoms and a white pleated skirt, which looks a little more delicate; Xu Yitong's facial features are three-dimensional, with big eyes and red lips, so although he wears a ruby inlaid gold head, a red cardigan and a rose red satin skirt, he is not tacky and gorgeous.

Xu Cancan and Xu Yilian were okay, they praised each other a few words, only Xu Yitong stared at Xu Cancan's jade head with burning eyes, obviously very envious.

Xu Yilian looked down on Xu Yitong the most when she couldn't get on the stage, and said to Xu Yitong's maid red heart with a fierce face: "It's time to go, don't help your girl out of the court!" ”

Red hearts hurriedly stepped forward to support Xu Yitong, Xu Yitong was very angry, shook off the red hearts and said loudly: "No need to help, I will go by myself!" ”

Xu Hanshi heard what Xu Yitong said in the hall, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The fourth girl is not stable, there is no need to go out and be embarrassed today, go back to the house and think about it for three days!" ”

When Xu Yitong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he cried: "Mother is eccentric, I'll go find my father!" ”

Her biological mother, Aunt Wei, ran over to talk to her last night, saying that Fu Yuchen, the only son of Dingguo Gong, was lustful by nature, and if he took this opportunity to be taken by him, maybe he would come to work in the future, and when the prince died, Fu Yuchen became the emperor, and she became a mother. Therefore, Xu Yitong was looking forward to it and tried to dress up, but she didn't expect to be grounded when she was about to set off, so she felt very painful, and she knew that her father was resting today and was in the front yard, so the crying became louder.

Before Xu Hanshi could speak, the two sturdy mothers-in-law came up and dragged Xu Yitong out.

Although Xu Yitong was dragged out of the coffin, the heart-rending howl was still faintly heard. Xu Cancan was a little frightened and stood there silently.

Xu Yilian smiled slightly, walked over and took Xu Cancan's hand and said, "Mother still has to wait for grandmother, I can't leave for a while, second sister, let's go to my house and wait first!" Xu Cancan smiled and nodded: "Okay!" "
