Chapter 226: Embarrassed
The booklet is inconspicuous, with three words written on the cover of mulberry paper, a few thin pages, pinched lightly in the hand.
"What's up there?" Gu Qingzhu glanced at Mu Jincheng and lowered his head to open the first page.
In his eyes, a familiar name jumped into his eyes, and Gu Qingzhu read out in surprise: "Ranking list? β
"No, it's not this, turn the page!" Mu Jincheng hooked his neck and looked.
"Oiran ...... List! Gu Qingzhu angrily slapped the booklet on Mu Jincheng's handsome face and pushed it, jumped off the table neatly, and snorted, "What a mess of things!" β
"Oops, it's here!" Mu Jincheng quickly turned to the third page and handed it to her diligently.
"Boudoir Rankings?" Gu Qingzhu glanced at it and asked suspiciously, "Where is me?" β
"This ...... This...... The third, the young lady of the Mu family! Mu Jincheng stretched out his slender finger and pointed to the third and last name.
"Oh." Gu Qingzhu replied in a low voice, she was not very comfortable with the title of the young lady of the Mu family, in her heart, when it came to her, naturally, she only recognized Gu Qingzhu three words.
There was no unexpected surprise, Mu Jincheng said a little depressed: "We Mu family is now the only young lady of you, what is said above is naturally you undoubtedly, is it difficult, you don't want to admit it!" β
"Will admitting it change the outcome?" Gu Qingzhu glared at him, and then asked, "Why is there a string of names under the ranking next to him, and there are only three of them?" β
Her words were very awkward, but Mu Jincheng was relieved to hear it, he smoothed the hair on his ear and said: "Feng Yaji never does things according to common sense, I don't know why, perhaps, there are only three people in the entire Nancang County who can enter Langjingxuan's eyes." β
"Has the eldest lady of the Tan family always been in first place?" Gu Qingzhu pointed to the first name and asked.
Mu Jincheng said with a smile: "Isn't it, Tan Zipei has been occupying that position since she was married, and she has been so pressed that money has come back to be the third child, and now, if you take her place, she will definitely be mad!" β
Gu Qingzhu flipped the page of the booklet and asked, "What you said before, what's going on?" β
Mu Jincheng climbed onto the table, took out more than a dozen Feng Ya Ji from a secret compartment on the bookshelf, found one according to the corner mark, and unfolded it to Gu Qingzhu, he said: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, your wontons entered the food chapter of Feng Ya Ji, which is the best money to promote, so many people will come to Ding's noodle restaurant to eat wontons later." β
Gu Qingzhu was a little surprised and said, "Oh, I see, this pamphlet actually has such a big influence!" β
Mu Jincheng nodded: "It's not, otherwise, how could my father and second brother call me for questioning at this time." β
"So how do we do it?" Gu Qingzhu asked with a twist of his eyes.
"Hey, it's not a clichΓ©, it's nothing more than a lesson to me, warning not to cause trouble, not to be too ostentatious, so as not to be jealous of those who are red-eyed." Mu Jincheng said helplessly: "Could it be that we have a good reputation, we can't be happy for a while, we can only be people with our tails between our legs?" β
"Father-in-law always has his considerations, if you don't go out to help the shop, just settle down!" Gu Qingzhu lowered his head and continued to flip through the booklet.
Mu Jincheng looked at her helplessly.
After a while, she frowned and read the title lightly: "Bravely save the ninth princess, get to know the seventh prince, the Mu family is about to develop!" β
The back is sprinkled, and a whole page is written at length, Gu Qingzhu really admires the person who writes the text, looking at what he writes, as if he has experienced it personally, and some details are really written like that.
The two of them gossiped for a while before they went to rest.
On the second day, the family was neatly tidied and went out to Su Mansion at the same time.
Because Mu Jiecheng added a little daughter to Su Jin, he bought a new house next to the county office, which he just moved in in last year, and it was the first time he entertained so many guests today.
The men sat and drank tea and chatted in the hall outside, the women and children were in the inner room, the Kou family and the Lu family were elders who stayed in the back room to tease the children, Gu Qingzhu and Mu Wancheng Song Yunxiang, and other young girls and daughters-in-law of other families sat in the warm pavilion.
"Yunxiang, why don't you introduce the big guy?" A few young girls squinted their eyebrows.
Song Yunxiang said with a smile: "This is my third sister-in-law, the famous young lady of the Mu family!" β
Xu is everyone knows the ranking on the Fengya Collection, and after listening to her sour words, they laughed together.
A round-faced girl said: "Hey, people are going to have good luck, and they can't stop it, just save it, it's a golden branch and jade leaf!" β
Another tall and thin girl said: "What if you save the ninth princess, the countryman is a countryman after all, I don't know, I heard that she only needs two lotus lanterns, and she is blind to such a good opportunity!" β
"Haha, two lotus lanterns?" There was another burst of laughter.
There was a warning from her father-in-law last night, she was not good at arguing with them, and she didn't want to listen to them chewing the root of her tongue, so she got up and walked around the small yard, where the original owner planted a few bamboos and a bush of plums, she looked at it carefully, and picked a few bamboo leaves in the palm of her hand.
"Yo, isn't that the third on the list?" A domineering voice, sharp and harsh.
Gu Qingzhu turned his head, his eyebrows twisted slightly, it was really a narrow road, it was the third lady of the Qian family, Qian Man.
"Why, once you climbed the high gate, you forgot how you wagked your tail and begged me to buy your bamboo shoots and pheasants?" Qian Man sneered.
Gu Qingzhu said: "It's just business, you love me, you pay me, I will naturally give you mountain goods, what do you want!" β
"Huh! What a big breath, you earned me a tael of silver for a basket of bamboo shoots and a pheasant, if I didn't pity you from the mountains, would you pay such a high price?! "Money is aggressive.
"What you bought is not a basket of bamboo shoots and a pheasant, but four freshly cooked meals, besides, the one or two silver you gave, I weighed, only more than nine yuan, you ate a table of dishes I made, and gave me less money, acting like this, which is what everyone did, no wonder you fell off the list!" The anger that I endured in the house, following this reason, was vented at this time.
"You ......" Qian Man's face was so angry that his face alternated red and white, and he gritted his teeth and said: "You are on the third list, I want to know what else you have besides luck!" β
Tan Zipei walked in, heard her words, and said indifferently: "The handkerchief she embroidered, the birds, fish and insects are as fresh as life, the silk ingots she spins can weave the best brocade, and the tea she makes, I'm afraid ordinary people can't drink it, just ask Miss Qian San, where is she not worthy of being on the list!" β
Qian Man saw Tan Zipei speaking for her, and she was even more angry: "Those vulgar jobs, I grabbed a handful in the countryside, embroidered and spun spindles, when did it become the judging standard for the ranking of Fengyaji!" β
"No one can guess Lang Jingxuan's judging criteria, but even if it is not this, he will not regard the third lady as a horse whip slave!" The two daughters of the Tan family and the Qian family have been fighting for the first place in Nancang County for many years, and recently they have been fighting for each weaving mill.
Song Yunxiang walked over with a light lotus step and said: "The two sisters don't quarrel, there are still a few sisters inside, if everyone is bored, you can play the piano to relieve your boredom." β
Qian Man has never looked down on Song Yunxiang, but after listening to her words at this time, he glanced at the corner of his eye and said, "This is quite interesting!" β
As she spoke, she shook her whip and shook it in.
Tan Zipei walked over and took Gu Qingzhu's hand affectionately: "Don't be afraid, what I am eating today is the full moon wine of the county lord's daughter, even if they have the intention to make trouble, they don't dare to be presumptuous here." β
"I'm not afraid." Gu Qingzhu shook his head and said lightly, "The list is not what I want to be on, and it is not me, it's just an identity, Miss Qian San is angry, probably more concerned about this." β
Gu Qingzhu is not stupid, she was cooking in Changlong that day, and she saw that Qian Man had thoughts about Mu Jincheng, and the position of the young lady of the Mu family was inevitable, and now she was suddenly replaced by her, a country man, so it is not difficult to understand that she has resentment and hatred.
Tan Zipei took her arm and warmed up the pavilion: "She has always been domineering, thinking that everyone should let her, just ignore her." β
In the warm pavilion, there was already a girl playing the piano, another woman was dancing to the music, and the others watched with relish, and after a while, several people took turns to play, and Song Yunxiang played the best.
"Yunxiang, what will your third sister-in-law do, let her open my eyes too." A woman in a blue acacia flower giggled.
Song Yunxiang covered his mouth and pretended to be embarrassed: "Don't embarrass me, my third cousin said that his daughter-in-law is from the countryside, and we are not allowed to bully her!" β
"Did the third master really say that? It's just a trumpet flower inserted on the white jade pile, but it's a pity that the jade tree is in the wind, the handsome and elegant third master! Everyone felt sorry for it, and the sound of tsk was endless.
Another girl with a new jade hairpin with the treasure of Sansheng said: "Song Yunxiang, aren't you wrong, I heard that the third master is a wife slave, and now the door is not out of the second door, either to go to private school, or to accompany the daughter-in-law to barbecue with thrush, and live a beautiful life!" β
A delicate girl beside her pouted and said: "Where did you hear these words, I heard that they got married for only one day, and the young lady got lost in Xifu, a person who can get lost in his own home, how can the third master see it!" β
Gu Qingzhu listened on the sidelines, she was not annoyed by these people's nonsense, but she keenly discovered that the Mu family had almost no secrets to speak of, and even such a thing in the Ruihua Courtyard could be spread to the people and become a topic of conversation after dinner.
Qian Man pursed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said with contempt: "Young lady of the Mu family, your cousin is not embarrassed, you should always give so many of us a little face, if you have any talent to show it, you can't help but show it, and you are worthy of your reputation as the third on the list." β
"If you want to listen to the music, I'll just come." Tan Zipei stepped forward and said.
"Miss Tan's piano skills, mountains and rivers, skillful atmosphere, the world knows everything, don't bother those little ones today." Qian Manpi didn't smile, and turned his head to look at the people in the room.
"You ......" Tan Zipei sulked.
Her move was really ruthless, and she used praise to frame Tan Zipei, making it impossible for her to help Gu Qingzhu.
"Don't go too far, bully my third sister-in-law and don't understand the rhythm!" Mu Wancheng blushed and said.
Qian Man bent down slightly, and said evilly: "Fourth Miss, why don't you make a song for your third sister-in-law?" β
"Cousin Yunxiang!" Mu Wancheng looked over for help.
"Don't be the Monkey King without the golden hoop stick, what kind of ability is it to ask others!" Qian Man snorted coldly.
"That's how you want to hear what I'm playing?" Gu Qingzhu smiled, and a chill grew in his eyes.
Qian Man sneered: "What, are you planning to come to a song?" β
