Six: Children of Jingmen
You can earn it if you don't have a high background, you can earn it if your fate is unfair, but there are always some things that you can't earn in your lifetime.
Gao Xueciao's eyes were dark, and she acted as an outsider and watched a scene of family harmony and happiness.
Wu, a trace of doubt swept through Gao Xuecicada's heart. Since Su Qianli's family seems to value her so much, why did they put her in Liyin Temple?
"Miss Gao? Miss Gao's ears rang, Gao Xuecian came back to her senses, saw the little lotus on the side, and instantly gathered all her thoughts, and asked what was the matter with a smile.
"Let's go this way" Xiaohe led Gao Xuecian and the two into the house from the side door, Gao Xuecian glanced sideways at the door plaque above the Guogong Mansion, the four characters of Hengguo Gongfu, majestic and chic, all in one go.
Is this a symbol of power......
"I have arranged a place for you to live earlier, you just have to live in peace, my mother said that I will talk to Mrs. about you in the evening, Mrs. is gentle, treats people very well, will help you, you can rest assured" Xiaohe said.
Gao Xuecian smiled back and said, "Madame's status is noble, I'm just a people's girl, how dare I bother Mrs., I just want me and Grandma to have a place to stay, it's just that Sister Lao, you bother to take care of it, and I don't want to go."
These words are very comfortable to listen to, Xiaohe felt useful in his heart, and said some considerate words to Gao Xueciao.
On weekdays, because she is Mama Xu's daughter, those subordinates are polite to her, and now she is even more dizzy by Gao Xuecicada.
Ri Xiao Temple
The pear trees stand in the yard, green and green, faintly revealing the white of the stars, elegant and pleasant.
In the evening, Mama Xu brought two maids over, "Three girls, these two maids are personal maids specially selected by the woman for you"
The two young maids saluted Su Qianli, "The slave Xuan'er (Miao'er) has seen the girl, and the girl is fine"
"Get Up"
Su Qianli looked at the two of them, one was taller, his facial features were upright, his expression was gentle, he was standing upright, holding his breath, giving people a sense of stability. This is Xuan'er.
The other jumped out of the way, younger, with a pair of big round eyes, shining with smart charm, a beautiful face, skin like condensation, and red cheeks that made people pity. This is Miao'er, Su Qianli smiled secretly, as her name is.
After Mama Xu left, Su Qianli saw that the two maids were still tense, and said, "I like to do things casually, you don't have to be so restrained."
Hearing this, Miao'er's beautiful eyes lit up instantly, and she was faintly happy, "Haha, the slave knows that the girl is different"
Xuan'er didn't jump away like her, frowned and looked at Miao'er and said, "Miao'er, don't be presumptuous." ”
Su Qianli smiled "It's okay", Mrs. Shi always said that she was old at a young age, and she was not as delicate as ordinary girls.
This is not to blame Su Qianli, she grew up in Liyin Temple since she was a child, and she is surrounded by nuns with pure hearts and few desires, and she can't develop an active and lively personality no matter what.
A maid came to summon Su Qianli to the main house for dinner. Along the way, Miao'er gushed endlessly to Su Qianli to popularize the courtyard attic of Su Mansion.
"Girl, this is Zhilan Lake, every summer, the lotus flowers here bloom very beautifully, huh...... Lotus seeds are even more delicious! ”
Su Qianli smiled dumbly.
"Oh, this is the wind hall where the third prince practices martial arts, there are not many others in it, there are many bamboos, they are all planted by the prince himself, and all kinds of famous bamboos have ......"
While speaking, they had already arrived at the main hall of the Su family.
The main house of Su Mansion is very large, the eaves wall is carved and the beams are painted, you can see the designer's intentions, the furnishings in the house are luxurious and exquisite, and the beautiful jade and precious porcelain can be seen everywhere.
Su Qianli looked at it, and there was an empty pineapple Taishi chair in the main seat, and two identical Taishi chairs were empty next to it.
After a little contemplation, I have the answer in my heart.
On the large round table carved from agarwood, several gorgeously dressed women and men, as well as a few young girls beside them, all sat obediently beside their mothers.
Seeing Su Qianli, she didn't dare to look around, but Su Qianli looked at them with a big sting.
There is only one female baby, about younger than Su Qianli, with red lips and white teeth, slender eyebrows, two rings of lotus buds and sideburns, wearing a water green gauze skirt, and a pair of beautiful eyes turned around Su Qianli's body, and then twisted her head.
Su Qianli also glanced at her and was silent.
"Third sister, come here" Su Shangfeng greeted Su Qianli enthusiastically when he saw her.
The originally quiet atmosphere at the dinner table was broken by her abrupt sound.
Su Shangfeng was originally an informal person, and pulled Su Qianli to sit down next to her with a big grin.
On the side, the daughter-in-law of the long room, Yang, and the third-room wife, Han, looked at each other and smiled.
Su Shangfeng is Su Shangfeng, the aristocratic lady who is the most unlike a noble lady in the entire capital, although she is famous, but after all, she is also a girl's family, and it will be difficult to say when she discusses her relatives in the future. It's also a shame that Second Master Su spoiled her like a treasure.
Su Yasheng sat and waited elegantly, his eyes paused between the Yang family and the Han family for a while, sighed, and said helplessly, "Shang Feng, sit down"
Hearing this, Su Shangfeng sat down obediently. The eldest sister's words still have to be listened to.
Jun's family, Su Yankai and the old prince had not yet arrived, and the eldest grandson of the old prince, Su Hong, that is, Su Qianli's uncle, glanced at Su Qianli a few times and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. This child looks like a long man, picking on the strengths of his parents.
The eyes are indifferent, probably because he grew up in the temple, at a young age, the arrogance between the eyebrows has been faintly revealed.
Su Hong was originally a military general and liked people with personality, but now he also likes this child with a little indifference, so he asked softly, "This is the third girl of the second family" The voice was round, revealing a sense of love.
Seeing this, Su Yasheng on the side said, "This is your uncle", Su Qianli got up and said obediently, "Uncle is well"
Su Hong nodded at her and said with a smile, "It's a watery child", and the Yang family next to Su Hong pursed his lips and smiled, "Can the children of the second family be born badly?"
Su Qianli glanced at the noblewoman, dressed in luxurious clothes, wearing gold and silver, and her demeanor was calm, this should be her aunt.
"Aunt is too good"
Yang laughed, "Your uncle's sisters are all married, and now your cousins have a few little people, and they are too young to watch around often, so you have to come to see your aunt more often on weekdays."
Su Qianli said, "Aunt cares, Qianli must often bother you"
The Han family in the third room of the Su family glanced at the Yang family, and snorted coldly in his heart, this Yang family was too anxious, and rushed to the people in the second room openly and secretly.
Han's eyes are shrewd, she was born in a family of businessmen, and she always looks at people and things better than others.
Han was also a virtuous woman, but because of the loss of her husband in her early years, her temperament changed greatly, and it was difficult to be uncertain, and others did not like to associate with her.
Han's eyes glanced at Su Qianli rather sharply.
I looked at Su Qianli first, I felt that this child was like a fairy, with an extraordinary temperament, and now I looked at Su Qianli again, and it was true that she looked delicate, but this temperament should not be easy to get along with, and there was a coldness and arrogance in her eyes when she was young, and she didn't know what to do when she grew up in the future.
I didn't grow up at home.
Han Shi looked at the little girl beside him, the old man was spoiled with a basket of bad problems, and she was a heartless person, so it was better not to let her get close to Su Qianli.
Han smiled at his daughter on the side and said, "Ling'er, don't say hello to your cousin yet."
As soon as Han's words came out, Su Qianli was stunned when she saw the girl in the aqua green gauze skirt, and then quickly called out to her sweetly, sister, and looked at her with a pair of beautiful eyes. There was an unknown glint in his eyes.
Feeling the looming hostility of the other party, Su Qianli was slightly stunned.
Han said again, "Auntie, this girl is spoiled by Grandpa Guo, and her temperament is a little more jumpy, you play with her on weekdays, if she bullies you, you tell your aunt, and your aunt repairs her."
Han's voice fell, and he heard Su Shenghua laugh.
Su Shenghua smiled at Su Ling and said, "This temperament is not just a little out of the way, it's just going to the house to uncover the tiles."
Su Ling's originally well-behaved and sweet smile immediately changed, and he clasped his hand and glared at him, "That's also from the fourth brother!" ”
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. Su Qianli didn't know why, Miao'er behind her leaned down and whispered in her ear.
Su Shenghua scratched his head embarrassedly. Laughed dryly, this girl still remembers the incident that instigated her to dig out the bird eggs in the Marquis Ning Yuan's mansion.
That time, it made Su Ling properly famous in the circle of noble children in Beijing.
Before that, people only knew that the Su family in Beijing had a tiger girl Su Shangfeng, who went out with her father, and the young phoenix danced with a long tassel, and was heroic with a broken halberd, and had the demeanor of his father's general, and the cardamom years were already famous!
The Su family has many heroic and martial men, but they don't want to, the icing on the cake is that there is a well-known woman and a daughter-in-law, which makes the world envious, and it is even praised by literati and writers in poetry and songs.
Now there is a matter of Su Lingning Yuanhou Mansion digging birds, which has become a tea talk in the neighborhood.
**Playfulness is harmless, but rumors are mixed, and there are a lot of market gossip.
Han's fingertips caressed the jade bracelet on his wrist, and he glanced at Su Shenghua in a lazy and casual manner, silent.
It is also a trivial matter for Su Fu, but for the reputation of a girl's family, it is not a trivial matter, it is related to the future marriage of the girl's family.
Thinking of this, Han's eyes sank slightly.
Su Qianli also laughed lightly. Seeing that the relationship between the brothers and sisters and this Su Ling is harmonious, I think about it, the relationship between the children and grandchildren of the Su family is also good.
And what about yourself? When he was young, he had no father or mother by his side, and now, he has no deep friendship with his brothers and sisters......
Su Qianli suddenly thought of Shitai, and in just a moment, her eyes had returned to light and indifferent.
Bodhi has no tree, where to stir up dust.
After some casual conversation, Su Qianli almost recognized these people. The former prince of the country has four children, three sons and one daughter, and the head of the third house, Su Mo, went out with the army in his early years, but unfortunately in a battle, he slept on the battlefield with the grandfather of the former country.
This is why there are two empty pineapple chairs in the main hall.
The fourth son has moved out of the Su family's main house from the civil service. And his daughter entered the palace as a concubine.
Nowadays, only the long room, the second and third rooms are still in the Guogong Mansion.
"What did you say, you laughed so happily" Suddenly, the rich voice of the old man Su interjected. The crowd stood up to greet them.
At the first glance of entering the door, Su Lao Guogong saw the dazzling snow color, the young man was neither humble nor arrogant, and his indifferent expression made Lao Guo's eyes full of vicissitudes of life slightly stagnant, but he recovered in an instant.
Smiled and pulled her over, "Old man, look at the old man's great-granddaughter" The old grandfather's eyes were full of sincere love, which made Su Qianli a little shy and overwhelmed.
She has always been cold and doesn't like to be too close to people. Therefore, I don't know how to get along with people.
Su Lao Guogong has been fighting outside all the year round, his palms are rough, his daughter's skin is light and delicate, and Lao Guogong only gently touched the top of Su Qianli's head.
"It's just that I'm a little thin, and I'll ask someone to make up for you more when I turn around," Su Laoguo said slowly.
"Thank you great-grandparents for your care"
Jun and Su Yankai glanced at each other, smiled and said nothing, just remembering what Fang had just said in the study, Jun's heart tugged again.
At this time, a voice as warm as the wind suddenly came, "It seems that I have come at the right time," a young man in a green shirt strode over.
Su Qianli raised her eyes and saw that the young man's green shirt was elegant, gentle and elegant, his slender body was like a green pine in the forest, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of chic and soft.
sighed in my heart, the son is like jade, unparalleled in the world, he is talking about such a person.
Jun told Su Qianli, "This is your third cousin, named Su Tongying"
It turned out to be a cousin, "My cousin is well"
Su Tongying's eyes swept over everyone with a smile, and finally stopped at Su Qianli, a trace of surprise flashed in her warm eyes, and then nodded at her.
When Han saw his son coming back, he was full of joy, "It's early to come back today, and I don't see it so early in the past."
"Amer, what are you doing in a daze, don't you take off the cloak for the son" Han's personal maid Amer blushed slightly and stepped forward to take the cloak.
Su Tongying's handsomeness, due to the early death of his father, has been by Su Yankai's side since he was a child, and he is naturally exposed to a bit of elegance.
However, unlike Su Yankai's scholarly elegance, he is elegant and elegant, and there are countless supporters inside and outside the house.
Green pine and jade standing, can be literary and martial, the young man listens to the rain song upstairs, the red candle tent, waving his sleeves, and a painting in his hand, he can move the world. Martial arts can fight on the battlefield, and Wen can be famous all over the world, which can be described as a young man with ambition and high spirits.
If you are a son, how can you not sink into it. Miao'er thought.
And the proud young man smiled warmly at the moment, "I heard my mother say that this sister is coming back, the Su family has a third child, and now there is a third girl"
This ridicule, everyone was happy again. Only Su Ling was indifferent, seeing that the great-ancestor obviously loved Su Qianli very much, and pouted dissatisfiedly.
As her mother said, after Su Qianli came back, she was no longer the beloved child of her great-grandfather.
The mind of a young child, but it is also human.
The young Su Ling is full of vigor, beautiful appearance, smart and intelligent, and she is also a concubine, why does Su Qianli go out of the limelight everywhere, and only compete with this cousin, but I don't know that so far all year round, she has not really been able to enter Su Qianli's eyes......
Unwillingly, the man had already left.
In the middle of spring, the grass and trees are fragrant, the capital is a smoke willow painting bridge, a thriving prosperous scene, the noble family of Beijing, the eaves are pecked high, and occasionally the swallow passes by.
In the thirteenth year of Jingcang, the year-long war between Dayuan and Zhao ended in the defeat of Zhao, and Emperor Zhao was invited by Emperor Jing to send his fourth son to Dayuan to promote the friendship between the two countries.
After this war, the heyday of the Great Yuan gradually appeared.
Under the city of the Son of Heaven, it is prosperous and prosperous, and the streets where people come and go, showing peace and calm.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the crowd. I saw on the street, two happy teenagers, one blue and one red, driving horses at a gallop. The handsome young man rode in the wind, which made people look sideways.
The blue-clothed young man smiled at the red-clothed young man and said, "Ziling, I haven't seen you for a few days, and the art of imperial horses has grown again."
"You're not bad!" The young man's eyebrows and eyes are like a galaxy, shining brightly, and his red clothes are grinning. The handsome face is full of unruly arrogance.
"Haha, then let's end in the pear forest in the north of the city, today, I will not lose to you again"
"Lose three times in a row, Qin Ying, if you lose to me again today, I will find someone else tomorrow" The young man in red said, and the two of them rode their horses together, leaving their backs to everyone.
