Chapter Ninety-One: Acting is first-class
Hurriedly got up, grabbed Yu Qiao's arm, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the noble person to come today, Miss please sit down quickly." ”
Then he commanded, "Oranges, serve tea." ”
Yu Qiao sat down and motioned for Cui'er to offer the gift.
But it was a fine golden hairpin, a pair of jade earrings, a pair of jasper bracelets, and two fine satin.
Sheng Niangzi's hands were trembling slightly. Thinking that when she was given a blessing, the original owner only gave her a few old dresses and some cheap jewelry.
looked at Yu Qiao and asked, "With such a heavy gift, why did the young lady come?" ”
Yu Qiao said gently: "Sheng Niangzi doesn't need to be careful. A few days ago in the Golden Jade Pavilion, I accidentally saw that the lady liked this golden hairpin, and then she was disappointed and left, and my sister was not happy. Thinking about the lady's age, such a look, it should be the best to wear the best, my sister just wants to be a friend and confidant with the lady. ”
Sheng Niangzi looked at Yu Qiao and wanted to see the clues.
Yu Qiao's face became sad, and he said softly: "Don't hide it from my mother, my sister has lost her mother since she was a child." When I saw Sheng Niangzi that day, she was eight points similar to her mother. It's to find out where the lady lives, if the lady doesn't dislike it, it's good to be sisters with me? It's also good that my sister looks at her sister's face from time to time, as if she sees her longing mother. ”
When these words come out, which one is not sad.
Cui'er: Where is it like the eldest lady, there is a distance of 108,000 miles to catch the eldest lady......
But in recent days, Cui'er has some understanding of her young lady now, and she doesn't just talk and act just by playing.
Since the young lady moved out of her own mother, Cui'er pretended to wipe her tears quietly.
Sheng Niangzi also had tears in her eyes, and hurriedly got up and walked over, held Yu Qiao's hand, and said in a choked voice: "My good sister, this is our fate." ”
Yu Qiao's eyes were filled with tears, and she said: "My sister will often come to visit my sister, after my mother goes, I will leave a small property at home, and I have no brothers and sisters, and in the future, my sister's will be my sister's." ”
Sheng Niangzi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and nodded again and again: "My sister just has to deal with me, as long as I don't think I'm polluting my sister's eyes here." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then they sat down.
Yu Qiao just talked about his longing for his mother, and he didn't mention anything else about Sheng Niangzi at first sight.
After a few tea gossip, I asked Mrs. Sheng to go to Wen's house to customize new clothes the day after tomorrow before leaving.
When I got out of the door of the main courtyard, I saw a woman standing in the side courtyard, and she stood leaning against the door, wearing a somewhat faded brown dress, and her face was even more sallow.
Yu Qiao paused, guessing that this was Fuxi's original match. Naturally, the concubine was favored, and the wife was sinned.
He smiled softly at her before leaving.
Na Fuxi came back at night, and saw that Sheng Niangzi couldn't put down the box of jewelry, so he asked casually: "Did you go to Jinyu Pavilion to buy jewelry again?" ”
Sheng Niangzi smiled at him coquettishly and said, "I'm afraid that I will spend your money, right?" Don't worry, the young lady I used to serve will often give me some money for yourself. ”
Fuki didn't ask any more.
Sheng Niangzi hid it from him, so she naturally had her own plans. Finally, luck came, and I climbed up to such a young lady, and I couldn't enjoy all the clothes and jewelry in the future.
If you are blessed to know some rich sons, you can leave this pickled person.
Look at his fat body, he can tear down the roof when he sleeps and snores at night. If it weren't for the old lady forcing her to marry at that time, how could she follow him to spoil herself.
Besides, since she was originally a personal maid of the young lady, she has served her with all her heart and soul since she was a child, and in the end, in order to win over people like Fuxi, she was given to Fuxi as an object.
There was resentment in her heart.
……
When Yu Qiao returned home for the evening meal, the whole family sat neatly, and the old lady's joy was especially strong.
Sure enough, before she raised her chopsticks, the old lady smiled with a spring breeze on her face, and said to Steward Tao: "After eating, you will arrange for the people in the house to scrub the house inside and out, clean and tidy, the most important thing is to be clean and tidy, and tell the people below to speak and do things carefully, don't lose your proportion, and behave properly is the most important." ”
Steward Tao said, "Yes! ”
Wang didn't know what to do, and asked, "Is there a distinguished guest coming to the door tomorrow?" ”
The old lady said with a smile: "Isn't it just that there are distinguished guests, the Liu family of Ming'er Moxiangju sent a matchmaker to propose marriage, and it was the pearl girl who was talking about." ”
Wang opened his mouth, too surprised, but lost his speech.
The face of the raindrop sitting on the side turned red instantly, and he will be sixteen years old at the end of the year, why is he not in a hurry and why is he not happy?
Yu Qiao was even more happy, and got up and blessed Yuzhu: "Congratulations to Sister Zhu'er." ”
The others also congratulated in unison.
The old lady was also overjoyed, and advised: "Ming'er, your mother and daughter are all good at picking up, just be dignified, don't wear all kinds of colors on your body." ”
Wang said gratefully: "Mother-in-law Xie, my daughter-in-law has written it down." ”
Yu Qiao smiled: "I must get up early tomorrow to help Sister Zhu'er dress up." ”
Yuzhu's face was even more beautiful and moving, and she said shyly, "Thank you, Sister Qiao." ”
Yu Qiao looked at Song Mingqing inadvertently, she just sat lightly, she couldn't say joy or sadness on her face, but there was a strong sadness in her eyes.
Everyone is happy, but she is the only one who is sad. She has always been silent, but she still spoke: "Don't be in a hurry, let someone inquire about the character of the son of the Liu family." ”
This is an anachronistic statement, but it is most plausible.
As far as Yu Qiao is concerned, she naturally can't understand the marriage of feudal society, and the two parties may have never met, so they got married directly.
Song Mingqing said this, not all because she was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, but because her experience and maturity taught her, and there were many people among them.
The old lady looked at Song Mingqing, and there was sadness in her eyes, how could she not know Song Mingqing's sorrow.
She is in such a situation now, isn't she just in love with the person who is ruined outside Jinyuqi?
The old lady suppressed the grief in her heart and said softly: "On Qiao'er's birthday that day, Mrs. Liu fell in love with the pearl girl, and I asked someone to help inquire about it privately......"
"The Liu family has two shops dealing in calligraphy and painting in Beijing, and two shops operating the four treasures of the study, which is also the home of scholars and scholars. Liu Mingbo is the eldest son, and he has been taking the test for fame in the past few years, but after repeatedly falling off the list, that mind faded, so he simply used his mind in business. ”
"He is nineteen this year, and next year will be the year of the weak crown, and he will be able to get married when he is crowned. That's what the Liu family means, hoping to marry Zhu'er next year. ”
The old lady said this, but she still didn't say what Liu Gongzi's character was.
But the Wang family couldn't bear it anymore, got up and curtsied at the old lady: "Daughter-in-law thanked her mother-in-law for always planning for Zhu'er, Zhu'er will be seventeen next year, and she really can't delay it anymore." ”
