The temple was brightly lit, and many servants walked around, and it was very lively.

There are many valuable utensils in the courtyard, such as the altar of the eight immortals.

After Xu Nian stepped into the courtyard, the servants all saluted and said, "Hello to the second girl." "Even if she is not favored, she is the only concubine of the Xu Mansion. Superficial work has to be done, even if this second girl will not live to be twenty-five years old.

Xu Nian smiled like a white flower: "You guys are okay, please get up." "I have to say that Xu Nian's face changes very quickly, and she has always regarded herself as a little white lotus in Xu Mansion.

Her phoenix eyes lowered, glanced at them, and then moved away. I don't know whose eyes it has entered and whose heart it has always stayed in.

There were some rough maids and little maids in the outer courtyard who had never seen Xu Nian, and they were all amazed by Xu Nian's smile. I was also amazed again when I saw her. What a beautiful woman this is, now she has just turned fourteen years old, and it will take a year to reach the end of her life, but now her eyebrows and eyes are so beautiful, and she said that she will look like after her eyebrows and eyes grow in the future?

They dare not despise her anymore, the future of this kind of woman must be extraordinary, maybe she will live past the age of twenty-five, and stand at a height that they will not be able to reach in their lifetime?

So they were all really impressed. If Xu Nian knew that beauty could still be used like this, then she would cover her mouth and laugh for a long time. But I will also feel sad, when did I fall into the situation of serving in Israel, my father once said that she didn't want me and me to be trapped in one world, and Xu Nian himself naturally didn't want to.

Everyone in the world loves beauty, so the attitude towards beautiful people is always to be gentle, even if they make mistakes, it is easier to forgive, except for some jealousy of people who hold beauty.

Xu Nian's little feet are wearing brocade shoes, and she is a lotus step by step, with an innocent and weak expression on her face, giving people a feeling of being bullied, but don't forget, Xu Nian is a proper white lotus.

When she stepped into the room, the smell of sandalwood was very strong, because there were many utensils made of sandalwood in it, and the old lady liked the smell, so she naturally came to her liking. In addition to the fragrance of sandalwood, it seems that agarwood is also burned today, agarwood is extremely rare, on weekdays, there will only be more old ladies in each yard, and Xu Nian's Song Nuan Pavilion will also have, but not much, fortunately, Xu Nian has never liked to burn incense, so it is not in the way.

On the left side of the hall is an eight-sided screen, on which is the "pine crane forest" painted by the most famous painter of the time, and the floor is covered with woolen blankets, and the hooks on it are also exquisite.

There were many servants standing in a row on the right, each holding a painting in their hands, and their faces were blank. Look at the material is rice paper, a foot is expensive.

Sitting in the main seat in the hall is like the main grandmother, she has silver hair all over her head, and inserts two diagonal silver hairpins, which are decorated with Hetian jade, and are carved into the style of orchids. Wearing a lake green cardigan top and a light green long skirt underneath. Dressed formally, it shows how seriously she takes this matter today.

Looking down further, there are Yang's, Chen's, and Wang's aunts, all dressed in fancy clothes.

In fact, Xu Nian felt that the Xu family was too inappropriate to do this, and the main family had just gone, so how could he choose a husband for his children? Although there are not so many rules, the imperial court has also written that after the death of the main family, the whole house is not allowed to marry, and Fang Shou is filial piety for three years. But according to the words of the main grandmother, it is decided first, see which family is suitable, and it is not too late to marry after this day.

Therefore, it also means that this thing is carried out at night, and it cannot be known by anyone with a heart, otherwise it will definitely affect their family's business.

Xu Nian didn't care, after all, it wasn't her who was in power, and they knew who they were if they ruined the Xu family's industry.

"Greetings Grandma." Xu Nian saluted. In this house, the main grandmother can talk alone, Xu Xin has something to do to go to Jinghua, and the rest are the aunts left by Xu Zhi, Xu Nian does not need to salute them.

The main grandmother taught Xu Nian with a calm face: "I have been saying that I can't get sick for the past few days, and I have even waived my daily greetings, but now I am resting?" ”

Looking at Xu Nian, who was kneeling on one knee at the bottom, was wearing a white feather dress, her face was satisfied, this dress was sent to Songnuan Pavilion this morning, she felt that Xu Qingqing's choice of husband and others should not be too cold, and the girls who could come forward in the house had a new dress.

Xu Nian said in a soft voice: "Back to the main grandmother, Nian'er accidentally caught a cold a few days ago and kept coughing, I was afraid that my illness would be passed on to the main grandmother and my sisters, so I didn't dare to come out...... Ahem. She covered her mouth and coughed again, looking at her sick appearance, it didn't look like she was pretending.

The main grandmother thought again, no matter how this "mongrel" is, she will never live to be twenty-five years old, and she will find a family and marry her, but she is not bothered, thinking of this, her face is better.

She said: "Xu Nian, sit down, give your sister a palm today." Your sister will come later. ”

Xu Nian nodded yes, then sat down slowly with his mouth covered, and Zhuji was always beside him to help smooth his back.

Only then did the grandmother notice this lovely-looking little girl, and she wondered: "Xu Nian, this is the person sent by the prince?" ”

Xu Nian replied: "Yes, Zhuji served me very well. ”

"There are fewer people in your yard, I'll send some people over another day. "The main grandmother suddenly thought that Xu Nian was a person who was appreciated by the prince, otherwise how could she give the people around her to Xu Nian, a ghost spirit?

If she can marry into the General's Mansion, wouldn't it be a help to the Xu family, although the door is not the right one, but it is not too much to be a flat wife by virtue of Xu Nian being the daughter of the first family of Shangjia, right? A flat wife is equivalent to a concubine, but it is better than a concubine.

She looked at Xu Nian again, and nodded with satisfaction, this girl can't do anything else, she looks like she is first-class.

Xu Nian didn't know that her life had been secretly planned again.

If Xie Changan knew that Xu Nian's grandmother was interested in him, he might wake up laughing in his dreams. It's just that he will never agree to his wife, she deserves him to carry a sedan chair into the door and be his wife. But he didn't know, so now he could only secretly feel sad.

Those present had evil intentions. Especially Yang, she fell in love with the red bean gold ornaments on Xu Nian's head, so she always looked at it with her eyes, and Xu Nian was a little uncomfortable to look at, so she patted Zhuji and asked her to block Yang's sight, and Zhuji understood. Seeing that he couldn't see it, Yang's face changed, and he pouted and whispered: "It's really a long skill, once the master mother dies, I can't control you as a slut." ”

Because the voice was so small that no one could hear it clearly, the grandmother saw that her face was not right, and her mouth moved around again, so she couldn't help asking: "What are you talking about, your mouth is so broken, I released you in advance, and you want to be locked up again?" ”

This sentence successfully frightened Yang, and she hurriedly said, "Mother, I'm just talking to myself." ”

When the grandmother saw that she was sincere, she followed her. asked Xiao Yu, who was standing next to him: "Why don't you go and see why the third girl hasn't come yet?" ”

Xiao Yu replied in a low voice: "I just arrived, and I said that I will come over soon, and the girl is so beautiful today." ”

The main grandmother showed a proud look: "That's natural, how far can the children of my Xu family go, at least better than that." Although she didn't say it explicitly, Xiao Yu still roughly knew who she was talking about, so she just smiled and didn't answer.

Then she still thinks that the second girl is more beautiful, and the heart is more beautiful. But I only dare to think about this in my heart, and I will never dare to say it.

Thinking like this, Xu Qingqing finally stepped into the door of the hall. She was wearing a red long dress, embroidered with canaries, and lip grease on her mouth, which was so red that people wanted to kiss her, and she had a girl's bun on her head, but she chose a full set of red makeup, and she was a little beauty.

Xu Sui followed behind, she was wearing a very ordinary peach-colored shirt and skirt, with a white hosta.

There was no expression on her face as before, and Mu Ran's appearance made people feel that she was very dull and boring.

"Grandma~" Xu Qingqing did not salute, but ran to the main grandmother and coquettishly, her delicate little face was full of shyness.

Xu Sui obediently saluted and consciously found an inconspicuous place to sit.

The main grandmother touched Xu Qingqing's face lovingly, and said with a smile: "Where did this little beauty come from, grandma's heart has melted." ”

Xu Qingqing blushed shyly: "Grandma, this dress is so beautiful, and I also like the head and face, thank you grandma." There was joy in his eyebrows. But when she saw Xu Nian sitting in the seat wearing a white feather robe, her mouth suddenly pursed.

Xu Nian is so beautiful that she is ashamed of herself, if Xu Qingqing is a beautiful woman, then Xu Nian is a peerless beauty, this level is much worse.

She knew that the grandmother had made new clothes for the girls in each courtyard, and Xu Sui also had them, but because she saw the new clothes Xu Sui was wearing first, she had a preconceived idea that the clothes made by the grandmother for them were not as good as her.

Actually, it depends on the face, Xu Sui always has a straight face and doesn't like makeup, so he naturally can't wear the beauty of clothes, and Xu Nian's white feather clothes are also of the same material as them. It's just a change of color and some feathers.

She called Xu Nian: "Sister, you're here too, I haven't seen you for a long time recently." "Actually, it's only three days.

Xu Nian smiled: "Recently, I got sick, my sister knows, if you want to, I can come directly to my yard." It's just that I've been in bed and the room is always stuffy, so I'd be glad you could come. She knew that it was impossible for Xu Qingqing to set foot in her room.

Because Xu Qingqing has been instilled in her since she was a child, she should stay away from Xu Nian, don't be sick, and naturally stay away from where she sleeps, so where is she willing to walk into that cold room.

Yang couldn't help but open his mouth: "Is it possible for the second girl to stay in bed all the time?" ”

Xu Nian nodded: "Yes, second aunt." ”

"Sister, sister knows, today you also know what we are here for, sister, do you want to ......" Xu Qingqing blushed, full of a little daughter's attitude.

Xu Nian sneered in his heart, these paintings are specially painted for you, the third girl of the Xu Mansion, I will choose whose face this is, not to mention how rare can you take a fancy to me?

But Xu Nian was still grateful: "Sister, sister is really happy for you, if you can marry a good husband, we will all envy you to death." ”

Xu Qingqing couldn't tell whether Xu Nian's words were true or false for a while, so he didn't answer, but said to the main grandmother: "Grandma, let's start." ”

The main grandmother nodded.
