Chapter 306: Envoy Liao (Medium)
- Chen Ke took out the gifts for Zhao Zongji's wife and children, all of which were priceless gems and pearls, but he treated them as small stones, and when he gave them away, it was a box.
"Hey, it looks like you've made a fortune." Zhao Zongji smiled and said, "It's really generous." ”
"Just take it, these things are worthless in the South Seas." Chen Ke opened his eyes and said nonsense, even if it was not valuable, if he brought it to Bianjing, it was worth it with his old nose: "I can play with my nephews and nieces as glass eggs." ”
"I'm not respectful." Zhao Zongji smiled: "By the way, God of Wealth, don't you have my sister's share?" ”
"Yes......" Chen Ke sighed lightly: "I know what happened to her......"
"Ugh." Zhao Zongji also sighed. In the summer of the year before last, not long after Chen Ke left Beijing, the king of Beihai County made the decision and married the small county lord to the eldest grandson of the late Qian Weiyan, the son of King Wuyue. The two sides agreed to get married after the New Year last year, who knew that in the winter of last year, the little son of the Qian family actually suffered from an emergency and died with a whimper.
Although there is no famous science now, it is not enough to say that you have to marry and marry a tablet, but it is inevitable that there will be a short and long-term reputation, saying that the little county lord 'Kefu' Yunyun. When the little county lord heard this, could he feel good in his heart? The lively little lady who used to be wandering around has also become out of the door and out of the door.
"Xiang'er is a strong girl, I believe she will be able to get out of the haze." Chen Ke picked up a small box of rosewood and said, "I hope this can give her a little strength." ”
"I think she'd prefer you to give it to her yourself." Zhao Zongji sighed and said, "If you are free, you can help enlighten and enlighten, your words." It works better than any of us. ”
"Hmm." Chen Ke nodded: "I know." ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After sending Zhao Zongji away, Chen Ke returned to the cross-courtyard where he lived. The Chen family is not what it used to be, and it has long been unsettled in the old mansion in the south of the city. Chen Ke paid the money, and the Cao family came forward to buy a big mansion with a garden in Jinliang Bridge from the cabbage price in Cao Ping's hand.
In this way, not only Chen Xiliang and his wife have their own main courtyard. Chen Ke's four brothers also have their own independent yards.
As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he heard the rustling sound of sweeping the floor. I thought it was a maid working, but who knew that when I looked closely, I was wearing a blue and white narrow-sleeved skirt. The one with a big broom in his hand, who is it not Du Qingshuang?
Du Qingshuang swept the floor very seriously, and he didn't seem to hear his footsteps, but how bright are Chen Ke's two tricks? At a glance, it can be seen that this little lady first trembled on her back, and then stiffened.
Chen Ke was also bad, so he stood there still and admired Du Qingshuang's infinitely beautiful back curve. The women's clothing of the Song Dynasty, in terms of color and style, was not as bold and open as the Tang Dynasty. But it's the same as the Ming and Qing dynasties. Unlike the reactionary women's clothing, which was eager to hide all the female characteristics, the women's clothing of the Song Dynasty was still used to show female charm. It's just that the way it is displayed caters to the taste of readers.
What is the reader's taste? To put it bluntly, it's a correction, so that you can't see it, you have to savor it. For example, this well-cut skirt looks ordinary and decent, but if you look at the back, you will find that it perfectly outlines the beautiful curve of the woman from the shoulders to the waist to the hips, which makes people think about it. Of course, the iron also needs to be self-hardened, no matter how good the clothes. It also has to be made of good material to wear the effect.
Du Qingshuang was still sweeping the floor, sweeping the non-existent dust, she swept very slowly, as if the broom weighed a thousand pounds. Because she was hunched at the waist, the hem of her skirt left off the ground, revealing the beautiful two-color embroidered shoes at her feet, with pointed toe toes, similar to those worn by women of later generations, except that they did not have a heel.
In the books that Chen Ke read in his previous life, it was said that women's foot binding arose from the Five Dynasties, and the Southern Song Dynasty flourished. Probably in the Northern Song Dynasty, it was already popular among aristocratic women, and it was the fashion leader of this era who led this trend, the Qinglou woman. …,
Du Qingshuang was sold into the Qinglou since she was a child, and naturally she was also entangled in her feet, but if she hadn't reminded her, Chen Ke would not have been able to connect those slender and straight feet with the three-inch golden lotus in later generations. Later, he became the head of the Fengyue team, and after reading countless feet, he realized that the original foot binding in the Song Dynasty was different from the perverted play later.
In the Song Dynasty, women only used silk to wrap their feet 'straight' but not 'bowed' before putting on shoes. In this way, it looks good with pointy embroidered shoes. To put it bluntly, their aesthetics are no different from those of women thousands of years later, but the embroidered shoes of this era have no binding force on the foot shape.
It was the uneducated group hundreds of years later, after passing through the cultural fault caused by the Mongols, who wanted to restore the clothes of the Song Dynasty, and then flipped through the ancient books and found that the original Song Dynasty women were bound to their feet. But the ancient books don't introduce how to wrap it, so they toss it blindly, and as a result, the woman's feet are wrapped into zongzi from an early age, creating a creepy 'camel's hoof' beauty.
Moreover, women in the Song Dynasty did not bind their feet when they were young, but they were only entangled when they were older and more beautiful. How else to say that there is no China after Yashan? It's terrible to have no culture......
From Chen Ke's point of view, foot binding in the Song Dynasty also had an impact on the feet, but the impact was far less than that of high heels. In his previous life, he could accept women wearing high heels to abuse themselves, and there is no reason not to accept this kind of foot binding in the Song Dynasty in this life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Feeling his thief's gaze, patrolling up and down on him, Du Qingshuang's face was red, his ears were red, his hair was soft, he hugged the broom tightly, and after a while, he trembled slightly.
Seeing that he had gone too far, Chen Ke hurriedly coughed, strode in and said, "Qingshuang, where is the maid?" How did you sweep the yard? ”
Du Qingshuang still turned her back to Chen Ke, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I let them go, I have to learn to do it." ”
"What are you doing?" Chen Ke turned to her and saw that Xiao Nizi's eyes were red, and he was not surprised: "Which one is this singing?" ”
"No, it's nothing, I'm blinded by the wind and sand." Du Qingshuang wiped the corners of her eyes, stuffed the broom back, lowered her head and said, "You're back, I'll fetch water for you to wash your face." ”
"Oh." Chen Ke nodded and followed her into the house.
One in. Du Qingshuang hurriedly took off his robe, took off his head on tiptoe, and then leaned down, ready to give him the boots on his feet.
"Anyway, you have to let me sit down first." Chen Ke smiled bitterly, he has grown so big, he has never tried to stand and take off his boots.
"Oh......" Du Qingshuang was at a loss all of a sudden.
Chen Ke sat on the official hat chair behind him and pulled Du Qingshuang up. Hold her hands and say, "Qingshuang, what's wrong with you?" Who told you anything? ”
"No, no one said anything to me......" Du Qingshuang said in a voice like a mosquito: "I heard from someone." ”
"Who?" Chen Ke frowned.
"Those sisters who have been concubines for others." Du Qingshuang whispered: "They said." To be a concubine, you have to be conscious of being a concubine, you have to be diligent, you can do anything, you have to be restrained, and you can't treat yourself as your master...... Otherwise......"
"Or what?"
"It'll be like them." Du Qingshuang bit her lower lip, and tears came down: "I will be kicked out of the house by my wife......"
"Hey......" Chen Ke couldn't help but laugh: "What a mess this is." ”
"This is a lesson in blood and tears." Du Qingshuang whispered.
"Nonsense." Chen Ke smiled bitterly: "Yes." The ones you took in were kicked out by your wife. But most of An Ansheng has given birth to children, why don't you ask them? ”
"I can't see ...... like that"
"That's not it." Chen Ke smiled and hugged her in his arms and said, "Don't listen to their nonsense, if you marry me, you can only enjoy endless happiness and no hardship." In the future, it will be the same when the little sister enters the door, you are sisters, not master and servant, you don't have to have a burden. ”…,
"I'm just scared ......" Leaning on his warm arm, Du Qingshuang sobbed even more: "I'm afraid of my cold and lonely son." Don't please your wife. I'm afraid that I won't be able to do anything, and my wife will kick me out of the house. He cried and said, "I'm not afraid of being kicked out and embarrassed, I'm afraid I'll never see you again, woo woo ......"
"Silly boy, impossible." Chen Ke hugged her tightly. Comforted softly: "It turns out that you have been reluctant to enter the door, just worried about this?" Actually, I originally wanted to rely on you, I didn't want to enter the door, just live outside, and we also lived a life of a home outside the home. ”
"you, three sentences won't work." Du Qingshuang was actually aggrieved. She was not wronged to be a concubine. It's the attitude towards Chen Ke...... As soon as they met, they didn't say a word, so they carried people home, and then there was no follow-up. Who is not wronged? All she needed was a few gentle words to warm her heart.
This woman with a cold appearance is not as assertive as Qimei'er. Since he obeyed him, he naturally accepted it......
"What I'm saying is true, I really want to cling to you. But now is a special period, I have a very powerful enemy," Chen Ke said softly: "In the future, our enmity will become deeper and deeper, and I really don't feel at ease when you are outside, so I am temporarily wronged at home, and when the wind and waves are calm, you can do whatever you want, how about it?" ”
Chen Ke's words worked like this, Du Qingshuang's heart suddenly dissipated, she curled up in his arms like a kitten, and whispered: "I don't want to be alone, where are you, where am I, unless you don't want me......"
"Hahaha......" Chen Ke laughed happily: "I'm dead in this evil old society!" ”
"The old society?" Du Qingshuang was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
"I'm happy to talk nonsense." Chen Ke opened his eyes and smiled: "Qingshuang, let's go do something." I've been going to die for the past two years......"
"Didn't Qimei'er feed you?" Du Qingshuang smiled slyly.
"How do you know?" Chen Ke was taken aback.
Du Qingshuang got up from his arms and giggled: "As soon as I get close to your arms, I can smell the unique fragrance on her." ”
"So powerful?" Chen Ke picked up the placket of his clothes and sniffed it vigorously, and found that he really wanted to, so he scolded with a smile: "This woman, it's okay to be so fragrant." He laughed and said, "But we are innocent, at least so far." ”――
Partition -
