Chapter 516
At this time, Zhao suddenly laughed and interjected: "The sixth girl is really smart! Things that I haven't played before, this one tried two hands, and I can play more and more smoothly, and I won the seven girls who used to win, but it's really not easy! ”
After a pause, he looked at Cen Xiyan twice, and continued: "Look at the sixth girl's dress, head and face today, and the ornaments are also very eye-catching, and this face is also handsome, among the young ladies in the house, she can be regarded as a top-notch talent!" I also heard that a few days ago, the six girls made two peerless poems at the poetry meeting led by Miss Lin Jiasan, and now the six girls are rumored in the capital to be brilliant, the six girls are so smart and clever, talented and beautiful, but the pride of our Cen Mansion! ”
When Zhao said this, the smile on his face was very sincere, and his tone was also very affinity, as if he was really praising Cen Xiyan.
But many of the people here are human spirits, and many people have heard some other flavors from these words.
Old Lady Cen glanced at Zhao, frowned slightly, her lips moved, and she wanted to say something, but thinking that today was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the New Year's Eve, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth again.
Li Shi looked at Zhao Shi and also frowned, his eyes were a little cold, but he just pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Cen Xihan stretched out his hand below and secretly pulled his mother to ask her to say a few words, but Zhao didn't hear it, and smiled at Cen Xiyan.
Cen Xifen stared at Cen Xiyan with an unkind look.
Cen Xiyan sneered in the bottom of his heart, this Zhao family really has no memory! During the New Year, I ran to her again to find myself unhappy!
But before Cen Xiyan could speak, Cen Xiqin exploded first!
Cen Xiqin looked at Zhao, squinted, and sneered, "Sixth Sister is naturally talented and intelligent, you don't need Aunt Zhao to say this, everyone knows it!" But I listen, Aunt Zhao, why are your words so wrong? You're probably stirring up feelings between us sisters, are you? ”
Cen Xiqin's words were very direct, and he didn't leave any face for the Zhao family!
No matter how special Zhao's status is in Cen Mansion, Cen Xiqin is Miss Yan, and if she wants to lose face, Zhao can only listen!
Zhao's heart was cold! A stiff and uncomfortable expression also appeared on her face, but she quickly adjusted her expression, and smiled helplessly at Cen Xiqin: "Miss Seven, what are you talking about, how can I provoke the feelings between your sisters?" I really didn't mean that! I just saw that Miss Six won the silver, and I was happy for her for a while, so I couldn't help it, and just said a few more words, Miss Seven, don't misunderstand me! ”
Zhao's previous words praised Cen Xiyan as the first person with the most beautiful appearance and the most outstanding talent among the young ladies in Cen Mansion, and his purpose was really to provoke the relationship between Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin and Cen Xifen.
After all, Cen Xiyan is a concubine, and she has overshadowed the limelight of the two concubines, thinking that Cen Xiqin and Cen Xifen will not be happy when they hear it!
Before, her daughter Cen Xihan was obviously the most outstanding one among Miss Cen Mansion, but now Cen Xiyan's limelight faintly surpassed her daughter's momentum, of course she was very unhappy in her heart, and she couldn't help but want to find something unhappy for Cen Xiyan!
However, Cen Xihan's reputation for talent and appearance, in the years when the capital was loud, no one said anything similar to provoke, so no one thought anything before, but now that Cen Xiyan is named, it is not right to hear it when Zhao says this.
And the only person who was provoked was Cen Xifen, who didn't have much brains, and everyone else could hear some unusual flavors from these words.
In fact, Zhao is also a smart person, but Cen Xiyan's limelight is about to surpass Cen Xihan, and she is a little unbalanced in her heart, so her eagerness is more obvious.
Cen Xiyan glanced at Zhao and said lightly: "Then thank you Aunt Zhao for your praise." ”
Cen Xiqin also snorted lightly and said to the Zhao family, "Did you misunderstand? Hmph, it's better to misunderstand, you'd better really not have the intention of provoking......"
"That's it!" Old Mrs. Cen frowned, and scolded: "For the New Year, you can't let the old woman save my worries?" ”
Cen Xiqin saw that Cen Taijun was angry, so he hurriedly hugged Cen Taijun's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, granddaughter knows that she is wrong, don't be angry, grandmother, you are the most kind, so don't frown, it looks so serious!" ”
Old Taijun Cen was coaxed by Cen Xiqin like this, and suddenly softened her face, nodded her forehead again, and scolded with a smile, "Ghost clever!" ”
Zhao also hurriedly said: "Oh, it's all my mouth, and I said the wrong thing during the New Year, I really deserve to be beaten!" As he spoke, he slapped his mouth lightly.
This little turmoil is over.
In the afternoon, everything that was ready to worship the ancestors was ready.
After dinner, Cen Biao ordered someone to open the ancestral hall of Cen Mansion, and the men in the family, led by Cen Biao, went to give the ancestors a photo and sacrifice.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, women are not allowed to participate in ancestor worship and sacrifice, Cen Xiqin was a little curious, and wanted to sneak over to see it several times, but was stopped by the sharp-eyed Cen Xiyan.
Cen Xiqin wrinkled his little face and said sadly: "Sixth sister, I'll just take a sneak peek, and I won't be discovered!" ”
Cen Xiyan slapped her unceremoniously and said, "With your three-legged cat kung fu, do you still want to hide from your father, eldest brother, and third brother's ears?" They are all people who have been practicing martial arts for many years, so don't be overpowered! If you are found out and know that you have committed a taboo, see that your grandfather, father, and mother will not punish you! ”
Cen Xiqin stuck out his tongue, didn't dare to peek again, and obediently went back to the house with Cen Xiyan.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, we must observe the New Year.
In the evening, the family sat around Mrs. Cen, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was always very harmonious and lively.
When he was approaching, Mrs. Cen ordered his subordinates to set off firecrackers and began to pick up the God of Wealth.
Cen Xiqin, a girl who loves to be lively, heard the sound of firecrackers, couldn't sit still, pulled Cen Xiyan out of the yard, covered her ears, and watched the firecrackers.
The firecrackers in this era are still very simple, and there are not as many varied and colorful fireworks varieties as in the 21st century, but Cen Xiyan still sees it with relish.
The sound of firecrackers is the taste of the New Year......
After taking over the God of Wealth, the family sat together for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and of course dumplings were indispensable for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Cen Xiyan was lucky, and after biting the first dumpling, he ate a copper coin.
Cen Hongyi and Cen Hongmian have already heard that during the day, Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin were compared to Galaha, and they pressed their names and won a lot of money.
At this moment, seeing Cen Xiyan being the first to eat the copper coin, Cen Hongmian couldn't help but laugh and joked: "No wonder the sixth sister has such good luck, it seems that this year is really going to be rich......
