Chapter 67: Self-help
"Mama, recently, Qingyao often pestered her father to enjoy the flowers after her father's next dynasty, and my father always said that only peonies are true to the country." Wen Qingyao didn't care about her gaze, and stepped forward to hold the grandmother in the palace, "But Qingyao has been in the nunnery for fourteen years, and she is not good at embroidery, and whenever she wants to embroider peonies, she always can't find its charm." ”
Wen Qingyao frowned, as if this was a big deal, "Later, my father knew about Qing Yao's distress, so he told Qing Yao about the queen mother contained in the Fang Classic, and Qing Yao could embroider peonies as soon as she read it." ”
When Wen Qingyao said this, many young ladies were confused, not knowing what Wen Qingyao was doing, but Yuan Rou curled the corners of her mouth, and together with the grandmother who was entangled by Wen Qingyao, her eyes were much more relaxed.
Wen Qingyao continued, "Mama is from the palace, can Qingyao show her embroidered peony to Mama tomorrow?" ”
Seeing Wen Qingyao so flattering, everyone couldn't help but look at each other coldly, not wanting to, but the grandmother, who had been cold-faced, nodded, "Naturally, you can." ”
Wen Qingyao smiled happily, her smile rippled on her delicate little face, helping her to fall into the city.
It is rare for Wen Qingyao to have such a bright smile, even though Mama is serving in the palace, the ladies in the palace have their own merits, but Wen Qingyao in front of her, if she enters the palace, she will definitely be able to share the same color as the ladies with her appearance, and it is really strange to say that she has a delicate heart.
Mama looked at Wen Qingyao's eyebrows and eyes, her words were ostensibly flattering her old mama, but her words were inseparable from Xiangye, inseparable from the queen, this is a reminder that Xiangye is in charge of the family, she has any thoughts, and Xiangye's thoughts are the most important.
Mama smiled, Wen Qingyao's hanging heart let go of a little, and Mama followed Mrs. Shangshu and turned away, talking about the recent performance of the young ladies.
As soon as Mama and Mrs. Shangshu left, Ming Jinyuan rushed forward to sarcastically mock Wen Qingyao, "I thought that some people were really high, but I didn't want to, their eyes were really high, and Baba's ability to stick to people was really good." ”
Wen Qingyao ignored her and walked to Wen Yuewan's side, Ming Jinyuan only felt bored, turned his head to find Qian Biyun, and discussed what Mama would assess in a while.
Ming Jinyuan left, Wen Qingyao's face turned cold, and she scolded Wen Qingyi in a vicious whisper, "You are really disgusting, Wen Qingyi." ”
Wen Qingyi was still pretending to be innocent, Wen Qingyao reached out and took off the jade pendant on Wen Yuewan's waist, and glared at Wen Qingyi angrily, "Your selfishness almost harmed the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, are you full of tofu pulp?" ”
Wen Qingyao's words made Wen Yuewan's back cold, and she looked at Wen Qingyi, who blinked innocently, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
Wen Qingyao stuffed the jade pendant into her hand, Wen Yueying on the side still didn't understand, and took Wen Qingyao's hand, "What are you doing that you can't see others well, Mama just looked at my sister a few more times, and you just went up." Why are you so ashamed? ”
"Huh!" Wen Qingyao sneered, unwilling to pay attention to them.
Seeing this, Wen Yueying scolded angrily, "What are you proud of!" ”
Wen Yuewan took Wen Yueying's hand and scolded, "Yingying! ”
Wen Yuewan usually loves Wen Yueying the most, and she is reluctant to say a word, but now she directly scolds her.
Wen Yueying was stunned for a moment, her face was full of grievances, and when she looked up, her sister was cold, so she didn't dare to say more.
The cold light in Wen Yuewan's eyes fell on Wen Qingyi, "Second sister, you are so scheming." ”
Wen Qingyi's eyes were full of uneasiness, "What does the third sister say, don't listen to the big sister's nonsense, how can the affairs of the daughter's family cause much trouble." And I really want to help my third sister. ”
Wen Yuewan smiled and nodded, "Okay, very!" ”
After Wen Qingyao ignored them, she turned around and just left, she was pulled aside by Yuan Rou, who frowned and asked, "Sister Wen, how can you understand?" ”
Wen Qingyao looked at the worry in Yuan Rou's eyes and patted her hand gently, "I guessed it." ”
"Huh?" Yuan Rou doesn't believe it, this can also be guessed.
Wen Qingyao looked at her so pure and lovely appearance, and patiently said nonsense, "I have never seen the jade pendant that the third sister is wearing today, the jade pendant is carved with orchids, and she will not pay attention to it easily, but today, sister, you reminded me, I thought about it a little more, and besides, the eyes of the third sister are not right." ”
Yuan Rou listened carefully, Wen Qingyao smiled gently, and continued, "Therefore, I thought, after the death of the concubine, this year is the queen's mother's preparation for the Hundred Flowers Festival, and the queen should also be the person the queen's mother believes." ”
Yuan Rou had already begun to believe Wen Qingyao's words, and approached Wen Qingyao, "Then how does Sister Wen know that the jade pendant is a concubine?" ”
Wen Qingyao smiled, "I guessed." The saint often praises the concubine Hui for her orchid heart, and the concubine likes orchids, and everyone in Beijing knows it. ”
Yuan Rou was shocked, "Sister Wen, where is this nonsense, Sister Wen is too smart." ”
Wen Qingyao looked at Yuan Rou with admiration in her eyes, her eyes were gentle, and Yuan Rou said, "If I were as smart as Sister Wen, I wouldn't be bothered by the many books that my grandfather asked me to read. ”
Wen Qingyao took the initiative to hold her, "Don't be arrogant, you are pure and intelligent, and you are beautiful." ”
These words of praise made Yuan Rou smile happily, Wen Qingyao has always been cold, never took the initiative to approach people, today not only took the initiative to hold Yuan Rou's hand, Yuan Rou was overjoyed in her heart, Mo said that she was praised by Wen Qingyao, she was really happy.
The young ladies spoke in twos and threes, but after a while, Mrs. Shangshu came back with her grandmother, and the content of today's assessment is just the etiquette learned some time ago, as well as the meaning of a hundred flowers.
The ladies remember the meaning of the hundred flowers well, but they have a special headache for the cumbersome etiquette. Except for Wen Qingyao, who did an elegant and perfect job, the rest was still a little worse.
When Mama was assessing, her eyes fell on Wen Yuewan's waist again, and when she saw that the jade pendant was gone, her eyes looked at Wen Qingyao more and more relaxed.
After Mama's assessment, Mrs. Shangshu left with Mama, and the young ladies dispersed.
Yuan Rou followed Wen Qingyao and walked out, "Sister Wen, looking at Mama's appearance, it should be fine." ”
Wen Qingyao smiled and thanked, "Fortunately, you reminded me." Thank you, Sister Yuan. ”
Wen Qingyao said this, but Yuan Rou was embarrassed, "Sister Wen, I don't dare to say more." You don't have to thank me, I didn't really do anything. ”
Wen Qingyao shook her head, Yuan Rou's reminder was particularly important, she remembered it in her heart, "There is a flower girl in my house who makes flower cakes that are really delicious, I will bring you tomorrow, okay?" ”
Yuan Rou laughed again, "Is it better than the dim sum in Baoyue Building?" ”
Wen Qingyao nodded slightly, "Naturally." ”
The friendship between girls is actually very simple, treat each other purely, and you can make friends.
Wen Qingyao said goodbye to Yuan Rou for the time being, turned around and got into the carriage.
Inside the carriage, Wen Qingyi had been crying silently, Wen Qingyao didn't want to look at her, and Wen Yuewan had a cold face and angry eyes.
Only Wen Yueying didn't know what was going on, and felt that the three of them were inexplicable, and she looked out the window angrily.
The four of them didn't speak, the carriage slowly returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, as soon as they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wen Qingyao took the lead in getting off the carriage and hurried to the main courtyard.
Wen Yuewan pulled Wen Yueying and left in a hurry, Wen Qingyi's eyes were panicked, and she got out of the carriage and hesitated for a moment before walking to Lan Tingge uneasily.
