Chapter 57: Mingyue's suspicions
In her previous life, she had seen countless pieces of jewelry, and she also knew something about these things. The appearance of gilt ornaments and pure gold ornaments is similar to that of ordinary people, but only those who know how can see the subtle differences. Looking at the position of the ornament, with the old lady's temperament, I am afraid that it is real gold, so it is so rare to put it there.
Aunt Lin looked at Yun Jinxi silently, she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart, she just thought of her daughter, if her Yao'er was favored by which prince and prince, wouldn't her status be higher than Yun Jinxi, "Jinxi is now married to the General's Mansion, and the people she will contact in the future will be princes and princesses." Yao'er, this girl, knows that she is staying in the house every day, and you, the sister, will take her with you the next time you go out and see the world together. ”
See the world? Yun Jinxi snorted coldly in his heart, but said respectfully on his face: "The General's Mansion has a special status in Cangliang Country, and it is not appropriate to have too much contact with royal people. My father is now the prime minister, and he is loyal to the king as an official in the court, and it is not suitable for him to have close relations with the prince and the king. Jin Xi and her sister are both young ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is nothing for Jin Xi to take her sister out to attend the banquet, but if the above person thinks that the Prime Minister has other thoughts, it is a big crime to bully the king. ”
Yun Jinxi's words blocked Aunt Lin's request to death, and she sat there with a gray face, and the chopsticks in her hand couldn't do anything about the tofu in this bowl. Old Madam Yun didn't know a few big characters, so she naturally didn't know anything about the twists and turns in the court. But she knows what it means to bully the king, and if she doesn't get it right, she will punish the nine clans, so she immediately glared at Yun Jinxi and said: "What bad luck did you say early in the morning, since you are married, stay at home honestly, study hard to learn the female workers, don't marry out and can't even make a piece of clothes." ”
After a period of rice, Aunt Lin didn't know the taste of food, and Old Madam Yun lost her appetite when she thought of that bully. Only Yun Jinxi faced a table of breakfast, which was a taste bud open, and he drank two bowls of single-stem rice porridge. She can't enjoy such treatment like an old lady in Meiyuan, and if she doesn't eat the food in front of her, she is sorry for her foodie attributes.
As for the old lady asking her to stay in the house and not go out at will, she couldn't ask for it. Because of her marriage with the General's Mansion, she has never been treated in the circle of aristocratic ladies these days, but she has received a lot of invitations. was worried about how to refuse, but it happened that if she got the words of the old lady, she could do her own life as a housemaid. Since King Xi could say that to himself in front of so many people in Duobao Pavilion, he knew that he would not give up. She can't afford to provoke such a person, but she can still afford to hide.
After returning to Meiyuan, Yun Jinxi first flocked to his bed. I drank wine last night and had something on my mind, and I didn't sleep until the third watch. Caught up to greet the old lady, Yun Jinxi didn't sleep for a few hours. Yun Jinxi fell asleep not long after, and Xiang'er was in the courtyard complaining to Mingyue about what happened in Xiangrui Hall just now.
Mingyue listened carefully and did not let go of every detail. She has not forgotten the things explained by her master, and the things around the young lady must be made clear to him in every detail.
"Is the old lady really so partial to the second lady?" Mingyue asked puzzled.
Xiang'er nodded, pouting and angrily hugging Yun Jinxi, "It's not all granddaughters, how do you feel that our young lady is like a child begged outside." If Madame was still there, she would definitely not let Miss suffer such a grievance. ”
Saying that those who don't want to listen are intentional, few people in the Prime Minister's Mansion mention Yun Jinxi's biological mother, Mrs. Su, Mingyue had inquired about some news before coming. Mrs. Su died when Yun Jinxi was less than a year old, and Aunt Lin happened to be pregnant at that time, and the two things had nothing to do with each other, but she always felt that things were not so simple. When writing a letter to Lu Yi, he also wrote down his suspicions.
For two months in a row, except for the fifteenth day of the new year, when he went to Xiangrui Hall to greet the old lady, Yun Jinxi stayed honestly in Meiyuan. She is not idle, the wedding dress or something, is to be embroidered for it. She won't torture herself like this, Xiang'er's embroidery is good, and she secretly took out the embroidered handkerchief to sell it before to supplement the expenses of the two. Yun Jinxi picked up the pen and designed a set of wedding dresses for herself, different from modern white wedding dresses and Xiuhe dresses, Yun Jinxi's wedding dress is a Western-style princess dress, and the upper part of the body is designed according to the appearance of a frank neck. This can not only hide her wishes for a wedding dress, but also not hurt customs in ancient times.
As for herself, after drawing the design drawings, she devoted herself to developing her own cosmetics in the laboratory. In addition to the previous ones, she also made contouring powder and specially trained Sixi's sister Lian'er. When Yun Jinxi's small class started, Meiyuan was the most lively, and all the maids and women in the Xiangfu ran to Meiyuan to listen to the class.
After Aunt Lin heard this, she was naturally dissatisfied with such a situation under her nose. Immediately, he found someone to ask Ali about his situation.
"The eldest lady only taught how to use those powders and creams, and nothing else. By the way, she also said what yoga to do every day to exercise the body. The slave and maid look neither like a practicing family, nor like a dancer. Every time I went to Meiyuan to practice yoga, there was a crying father and a mother, and the slaves and maids were panicked when they heard it. The woman said, recalling what she had heard outside the wall, and goosebumps were raised. After the man went down, Aunt Lin held her forehead and wondered what Yun Jinxi was planning.
"Auntie, when will this eldest lady get these things? The old slave has always felt that the eldest lady has changed since she didn't return overnight last time. The second lady said that she was in a mass grave at the beginning, isn't this eldest lady possessed by some wandering ghost, do you think about the previous eldest lady, she dared to go against you? Mama Lin said as she rubbed Aunt Lin's temples, "If you are really possessed, then Aunt Lin must take precautions, this is a big deal!" ”
"Possessed?" When Aunt Lin heard this, her heart was also a little relieved. Originally, she didn't believe in these, looking at the Xiangrui Hall burning incense and offering to the Buddha every day, she sneered in her heart, if this worship of the Buddha is really useful, everyone simply don't have to do work, just kneel there every day and pray. But after listening to Mama Lin's words today, she had some ideas.
Aunt Lin's eyes flashed with a hint of calculation, regardless of whether she Yun Jinxi started the class to win people's hearts in the house, the potential hidden danger is a hidden danger after all, and it is only when she eliminates it that she is down-to-earth.
"Mama Lin takes the silver and goes to prepare something for me......"
