Chapter 301: New Year Pass (5)
Zhao Tian'er, who felt that it was time to go back, went out of the courtyard gate of the Chu family accompanied by Song Jingui's mother and daughter, and stepped on the back of the little girl lying on the ground and entered the carriage. Immediately afterwards, Peony and Narcissus jumped up one after the other, and the last one was the coachman who got into the carriage. Zhu Biao, after Zhao Han turned over and got on the horse, he led everyone back home.
Chu Hanyue, who was unhappy in her heart, turned around and entered the courtyard gate, but Chu Hanlu and Song Jingui kept watching them disappear from sight, and they didn't turn around and go back. Song Jingui, who came to life with this spirit, looked around at the crowd of onlookers who had not dispersed, and deliberately said: "I've seen it all!" Open your eyes! You should all know that our Chu family is going to turn over! The eagle sometimes flies lower than the chicken, but the chicken never flies as high as the eagle......
Chu Hanlu, who couldn't see her mother talking about this, kept pulling her clothes with both hands, intending to let her go home, but Song Jingui, who was energetic, pulled her over, raised her left hand, and showed off: "You all come and take a look, and you will have a long experience." This jade bracelet is the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites of the third grade of the dynasty, Li Wenxuan, who sent someone to give my family a dowry under the cold dew. This bracelet alone can buy it, and this street is still rich. ”
Among the people, they are not used to seeing her with teeth and claws, and they want to stand up and sarcastically say two words to her, but they are afraid that her family now occupies the power of the Li Mansion, and will retaliate in the future with a grudge. For the sake of the peace of themselves and their families, many people had no choice but to turn their heads and scatter.
There is Song Jingui who is really not used to being arrogant, so there are naturally some people who are envious, jealous and hateful of her family. is also a family with a daughter, and repeatedly thinks about why his family doesn't have such good luck? After all, this is the same as giving birth to a daughter, and the Chu family can let her daughter climb the high branches. A pheasant turned into a phoenix, and his daughter became an out-and-out money-loser. In this regard, it is inevitable that the men who are resentful, and some have begun to scold their daughters and women before they return home.
Seeing all this, Song Jingui was called comfortable in his heart. It's the first time in many years that she's made herself proud of herself. But I don't think it's a very shameful thing for my daughter to be a concubine for a big family. With his many years of life experience, Song Jingui knows very well that many people who despise him on the lips, and in his heart he wishes that a big family could take a fancy to his daughter, so that the whole family can get rid of poverty and become rich and live a good life through this method. However, it is often a one-shot deal, and there is no follow-up, after all, there are really not many concubines who can survive to the status of their husband's family. And there are very few who can be corrected.
In Song Jingui's view, even if you want to cling to the powerful and be a concubine for other people's families, not everyone has the opportunity and qualifications to do it. The daughters of ordinary people, who are mediocre in appearance, ugly in appearance, and even have physical diseases, etc., are sent over in vain. No one else will want it. Therefore, this woman is beautiful, which is the premise of being able to go to the ground.
"Mother. Why do you keep saying that? Don't you feel ashamed? Chu Hanlu, who was standing aside, couldn't help but be anxious.
Song Jingui, who would not think that she was a disgrace of her old face, would definitely scold her a few days ago, but now, it is two things that have turned the world upside down. He responded with a smile: "Oh, you haven't officially passed the door of the Li family, and you have already begun to rely on the power of your husband's family to take care of your mother-in-law." When you get past the door, it'll be fine. ”
It's hard to be shy. Chu Hanlu, who really didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, turned around sharply and walked into the yard, and Song Jingui, who was unhappy when he saw her, hurriedly turned around and chased after her, and coaxed with a smile: "Good daughter, my mother knows that she is wrong." In the future, I promise that I will definitely pay attention. What would you like to eat in the evening? My mother will go down to the kitchen to make it for you. ”
Chu Hanlu, who stopped, the red on his cheeks did not disappear, and complained: "I just went to be a concubine for him, not a main room." I really don't know what there is to show off everywhere? This has made the neighborhood all knowing, don't you feel ashamed? ”
"My good daughter, what's there to be ashamed of. If they really have such a capable daughter, they can also send their own daughter to try it. Song Jingui, who is unabated, is not afraid of being heard, but he is afraid that people will not be able to hear what he says: "If any of them can really send their daughter to the powerful family as a concubine, then I dare to guarantee in front of you that it was even more arrogant than your mother just now." Presumably, you should remember that the lame man at the end of the street had promised his daughter to an old man in his sixties who lived in the city and had a little money, and was not even an official, and he was already able to lift this tail to the sky......
Meanwhile, Narcissus, who was sitting in the carriage, was the first slave to notice the missing jade bracelet on the master's left wrist. Thinking that Zhao Tian'er had fallen, she reminded anxiously: "Big lady, the jade bracelet on your left wrist is missing." When you come, the slave and maid will see you wearing it. Now, no. Could it be that it fell into the Chu family? As soon as she said it, the peony in the car at the same time noticed that the precious jade bracelet on the left wrist of the master mother was really missing.
Zhao Tian'er, who closed her eyes, said calmly: "Don't make a fuss. My bracelet did not fall off, but was given to the youngest daughter of the Chu family. "Narcissus who went to the Chu family just now, although she doesn't use the four walls to describe her family, she can also use not being rich to decorate the other party's family background. She was unbalanced in her heart, and she decided that Chu Hanlu was just the daughter of a poor family, and even if she sold her entire family and all her belongings, it would not be worth one-tenth of the jade bracelet.
"Big lady, you also lifted that woman named Chu Hanlu too much. What virtue does she have, how can she afford your jade bracelet? "In my heart, I was an indignant narcissus, and I blurted out my truest thoughts and made my debut.
Zhao Tianer, who is also a woman, knows a woman's heart eye best, and once it is smaller, it is smaller than the eye of a needle. She behaved very calmly, and said lightly: "However, it's just a bracelet." Whoever it is given to is also sent. As long as you behave well, then Madame, I will also lift you up. ”
When Narcissus heard this, her heart burst into flames. It was inevitable that she misinterpreted the meaning of the master's mother, and even thought that Zhao Tianer would promote herself as the master's concubine. However, when she recovered from it quickly, she saw Peony sitting opposite her, and her appearance and talent were above her, and she had not yet achieved her wish.
Don't be delusional about a slave like yourself who is two grades lower than the other party. Soon thought of the right way, and correctly understood that the mistress intended to promote herself to the second-class maid, after all, there was a vacancy in this position. The journey was very smooth, and they returned to the Li Mansion without any accidents. (To be continued......)
