Chapter 48: It's Changed Again
"The hairpin was not given to me, it was sent to my fourth sister, it was a gift from the Prime Minister's Mansion, I don't know the process, it is inconvenient to say."
Jiang Shuyun suddenly realized.
It was just a misunderstanding.
She also thought...
Ruofu and Chen Gongzi...
Jiang Shuyun looked at Jiang Ruofu, she could only see her side face, a pair of eyes caught the light of the dark night, the curtain was blown up one by one, and her forehead hair was blown, her side face was covered with a layer of yellow halo, and a pair of eyes seemed to be silent as if mixed with the complexity of the world, but it was scorching and sinking.
The wind is delicate and quiet, white and dewy, and that face is so beautiful in the night that people can't help but sink.
Jiang Shuyun couldn't help but be stunned.
------
Jiangfu,
Ming Yunluo knelt in the brightly lit main courtyard.
The subordinate moved a rosewood chair for Zhu to sit, and Zhu sat in the courtyard and watched Mingyun Luo kneel.
Huichun Road,
"Aunt Ming, where did the seventh lady go? I heard that Miss Seven has often gone out of the house recently, and she doesn't know what to do, and she doesn't ask others to follow, Miss Seven is the daughter of Jiangfu, and she is different from you, so she can't wander around like this outside. ”
Ming Yunluo looked at the people in the courtyard with disdain or contempt, and lowered his head and said,
"Today, I just asked Ruofu to go out to buy flower paper for the flower festival, presumably it is difficult to buy things, and I came back late."
Zhu looked at the light and fire in the courtyard, looking at Ming Yunluo, although he was wearing old clothes and hairpins, but his face was still dazzling, Zhu couldn't help but burn a wave of anger and jealousy in his heart.
is such a face that makes men crazy about her, and it is also this way to bow down and whisper, which makes people pity in every way, and they don't care if they will do anything out of the ordinary.
Zhu's nails painted with bright red Kodan sank into his palm, staring at Ming Yunluo,
"Aunt Ming, I won't say what your background and temperament are, you also know it yourself, although Miss Seven is not good-looking, she is also the daughter of my Jiang Mansion, since she is the daughter of Jiang Mansion, I have to set up rules for her."
"She came out unexpectedly, without restraint, an unmarried daughter, what does it mean to go out every day? Do you know that? ”
Mingyun Luo's eyes lit up, but he folded his hands and kowtowed,
"Ma'am, Jofher won't."
"The concubine knows Ruofu's temperament very well, and you also know Ruofu's character, the most cautious and submissive, how can you do something that exceeds etiquette? She also decided that she didn't have such courage. ”
"Besides, Ruofu has always been earnestly taught by you, the eldest lady is from everyone's background, you are so polite, how can Ruofu, who has been taught by you, do things that are not in line with etiquette?"
Ming Yunluo's posture is very low, and his voice is also clear and pleasant, not in a hurry, not high, not low, it is difficult not to have a good impression.
Obviously, the Zhu family came with anger, but as soon as Ming Yunluo said these words, most of the anger was strangely dissipated.
But after thinking about it, Ming Yunluo coaxed those men like this, so that people had to pity her.
Zhu is hard to quench his anger,
"Strong words, as the saying goes, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, the seventh girl has been raised under your knees since she was a child, and I taught her only in the past few months, how can I compare to your influence on her? No matter how carefully I teach her, I can't compare to my biological mother's words and deeds. ”
Mingyunluo straightened up, but still lowered his head,
"Madame, don't blame, the concubine is from a humble background, Ruofu really failed to study well with the concubine, but the eldest lady has worked hard in the past few months... of teachings. ”
Mingyunluo gritted his teeth.
"Ruofu has no second heart for you, the eldest lady, and wants to honor you wholeheartedly. How could they be willing to trouble you? ”
Zhu looked at Kou Dan in his hand,
"Miss Seven's loss of etiquette is also caused by the poor teaching of your biological mother, come and carry the board."
Ming Yunluo suddenly raised his eyes, and the light in his eyes was terrifying.
-------
Mama Du took the hand of the embroidered canopy for a moment,
"Miss Seven's biological mother?"
Yangqin Road,
"Yes, I heard that Miss Seven did something wrong, and the eldest lady wants to punish Miss Seven's aunt for teaching poorly."
Mama Du blew the foam on the tea bowl unhurriedly,
"What was the mistake?"
Yangqin Road,
"It's Miss Seventh who hasn't returned to the house yet, and the eldest lady has accused her of having more than a boudoir training."
Mama Du said,
"It's kind of interesting."
Yangqin Road,
"What does Mama think?"
Mama Du put down the tea bowl,
"Who do you think this scene is for?"
Yangqin bowed his head and said,
"The dulcimer didn't dare to say it."
Mama Du picked up the embroidery canopy, pinched the needle, squinted her eyes, and pierced the cloth with the tip of the needle.
"Who else but to show me?"
Yangqin Road,
"Mama, since you know, do you want to stop it?"
Mama Du pinched the needle, threaded the silk thread, and filled in the pattern little by little.
"Why block?"
Mama Du raised her eyes and said to the dulcimer,
"Don't you want to see what Miss Seven will do?"
—————
Jiang Ruofu came to the door, Jiang Shuyun just said that he wanted to visit after all, it was just a pretext, and now he sent Jiang Ruofu home, and said,
"It's a little late today, and I'm afraid it's inappropriate to visit again, so I'll go back first."
Jiang Shuyun's maid handed the two wooden boxes to Jiang Ruofu
"This is the flower paper used in the flower festival, which I carefully selected, not easy to collide with others, the first time I saw you, I failed to meet you, now this is my meeting gift, not a valuable thing, but it is also my heart, and please be sure to accept it."
Jiang Ruofu didn't shirk much, the flower paper is not a valuable thing, but it is just a piece of heart, and it would be too rude to refuse like this.
Jiang Shuyun is gone.
Jiang Ruofu immediately stuffed one of the wooden boxes into Xiao Yu's arms, and Xiao Yu was surprised,
"Miss?"
Jiang Ruofu covered her mouth and said in a low voice,
"Don't make a sound."
"Hurry in, go straight back to Qinghui Garden, don't stay."
Xiao Yu nodded hurriedly.
Jiang Ruofu entered the house.
Along the way, there was no one along the way.
When passing by the bamboo forest, a figure came out,
"Miss Seven!"
Jiang Ruofu stared at it, but it was Ye Dong.
Ye Dong was on crutches, panting,
"Miss, don't go over."
"The eldest lady is arresting you, and now in anger, as soon as you appear, you will definitely be punished together."
Jiang Ruofu ignored him and walked away.
Ye Dong stopped her,
"Miss Seven, don't go over."
Jiang Ruofu stood still,
"Why?"
Ye Dong branched out,
"The eldest lady is in the courtyard now, and..."
Between the lightning and flint, Jiang Ruofu seemed to suddenly understand something, and she said in a deep voice,
"My aunt is there, isn't she?"
Ye Dong didn't answer, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
Jiang Ruofu went straight to the main courtyard.
I met the minions who were carrying the red lacquered plates to the main courtyard.
Jiang Ruofu entered the main courtyard, and the main courtyard was brightly lit, surrounded by a group of people, silent.
Zhu sat in the center, looking at Kou Dan in his hand.
And Ming Yunluo knelt on the ground, restrained by a few minions and couldn't move.
Jiang Ruofu knelt down and said,
"I've seen the eldest lady."
Zhu sneered,
"The Seventh Girl is back?"
"What, you still know you're coming back?"
The smile was jarring.
Jiang Ruofu Dao,
"I'll return tonight, Mrs. Lao is bothered."
The Zhu family was about to reprimand, but Jiang Ruofu said,
"It's just that there was a reason why I had to go back late."
Zhu sneered,
"Seventh girl, what do you have that you need to do in the middle of the night?"
Jiang Ruofu lowered his head and respectfully presented the wooden box,
"Ruofu is indeed stubborn, but he met his cousin Jiang Shuyun on the way."
Zhu's gaze changed.
Jiang Ruofu opened the box, and the gorgeous flower paper inside spread out.
Layers of people appear in front of you.
Jiang Ruofu smiled with a humble smile,
"Sister Shu Yun said that I have always admired your bearing and open-mindedness, and I also admired that you could teach such a gentle and virtuous daughter as the fourth sister. Thinking about it, thinking that the Flower Dynasty Festival was coming, she personally went to the market to select some flower paper, each of which she carefully selected, which must be different from others, and will definitely make the fourth sister stand out at the Flower Dynasty Festival butterfly fluttering party. ”
"Originally, my cousin wanted to hand over these things to you personally, but she didn't want to meet me by chance. Recognize that I brought these things here, and that I was late because I had been talking to my cousin for a while. ”
Zhu's eyes lit up and looked at Yuan Liu,
"Go and bring it in."
Yuan Liu took the box from Jiang Ruofu's hand and handed it to Zhu, Zhu took the box, if he got a treasure, the skin of the flower paper was smooth, reflecting the fire in the courtyard,
One of her hearts almost jumped out of her chest.
It's for her to hug the lotus!
It's for hugging lotus!
Jiang Shuyun's overtures are, to a certain extent, the overtures of his descendants.
If there is no conclusion in the sect, how can Jiang Shuyun easily show favor to her!
Zhu held the box tightly, his heart beating extremely fast.
Rubbing the paper, her hands trembled,
Her hugging lotus is really about to fly on the branches!
The descendants value her, in the future, who else can stop hugging the lotus on this road?
Sure enough, it is useful to show favor to Mama Du, although Mama Du is alienated on the surface, in fact, she secretly indicated to Dazong that she wants to choose her lotus, and the reason why she is so strict with Hushe these days must also be because of avoiding suspicion! Lest there be twists and turns, it must be!
Zhu held the box tightly.
She looked at Jiang Ruofu.
Jiang Ruofu and Mingyun Luo both knelt in the courtyard with low eyebrows.
Both were respectful.
Zhu was contemptuous.
A prostitute, an ugly-looking, submissive.
How could such lowly two people have the opportunity to compete with her?
Even if it is to carry shoes for Huhe, these two people will not be qualified in the future!
Why should he make them enemies?
Thinking so, Jiang Ruofu was still respectful, and added fuel to the fire,
"The eldest lady, you are broad-minded, well-taught, virtuous and generous, the great sect also values you, and believes in the character and talent of the fourth sister, Ruofu is just mediocre, and knows that he will never have the opportunity to compete with the fourth sister, and he will never dare to speak falsely."
"The fourth sister will definitely be above the clouds in the future, and the phoenix will fly for nine days."
Jiang Ruofu straightened up half of his body, stretched out his hand and folded it in front of his forehead, bowed down, and said in a high voice,
"Ruofu congratulated the fourth sister in advance on her blossoming flowers and smooth journey."
She bowed deeply.
The light of the fire in the courtyard fell on her, illuminating half of her body, and her light-colored garments burned as if they had been burned.
The firelight was also reflected in her eyes.
In her afterglow, there was Aunt Ming, who was also kneeling on the ground, her clothes and hair were a little messy, and there was mud on her body, which was embarrassing. A pair of eyes looked at her, but their eyes were red.
The eyes of the entire courtyard looked at her, and Jiang Ruofu's hands were slowly clenched in his sleeves.
Zhu closed the box, glanced at Jiang Ruofu arrogantly, and said contemptuously,
"Since there is a reason for today's incident, then let you go."
Such a person really has no qualifications to compete with Baohe, and it is a waste of thought for her to deal with it.
Zhu stood up, held the box, and walked into the house.
Jiang Ruofu said in a loud voice,
"Mrs. Xie, you are magnanimous!"
Jiang Ruofu slowly straightened up.
The subordinates in the courtyard left one after another, and the minions carrying the red lacquered plate passed in front of Jiang Ruofu, who stared at the red lacquered board.
If she hadn't come back in time today.
This board will hit my aunt hard.
In candlelight,
Mingyun Luo took medicine for Jiang Ruofu,
"Look at you, kowtow so hard today, your forehead is blue."
Jiang Ruofu took the warm veil and just smiled comfortingly,
"It's okay."
"Don't worry, just get some sleep."
Her sideburns were scattered.
Mingyun Luo picked it up for her, suddenly wet her eyes, and choked up,
"It's all my fault, I don't have the ability to protect you."
Jiang Ruofu held Ming Yunluo's hand, shook his head and said,
"No, it's not my aunt's fault."
"It's all because her daughter is too flamboyant, which makes the Zhu family target and affects the aunt."
Ming Yunluo looked at her, his eyes were filled with tears, and he suddenly said,
"If only there was someone who could take care of you and take good care of you."
Jiang Ruofu just didn't answer.
She understood what her aunt meant, and now that she was married, it was time to start choosing a husband.
Jiang Ruofu held Ming Yunluo's hand,
"Auntie, I'm not going anywhere, I'll stay with you and my brother, take care of you for the rest of my life, and accompany you."
Mingyun Luo burst into tears,
"How can you live this kind of life with me for the rest of your life."
"I don't want you to marry more powerful people, I don't want you to fly on the branches, raise your eyebrows, I just want to have someone who is good to you, who will accompany you for the rest of your life, take care of you, and not bully you."
"Even if you marry lower, it doesn't matter, the most important thing is not to be a concubine, the pain of being a cheap concubine, my aunt has endured enough."
Jiang Ruofu clenched Ming Yunluo's hand, she pretended to be relaxed and said,
"Auntie, don't think about it, who can I marry? The eldest lady will definitely not prepare for me, and my father is afraid that he will not remember me, I just want to accompany you, accompany my brother, and live a dull life. ”
Jiang Ruofu said, his nose was sour, but he couldn't help choking and avoided the topic.
"After a day of shopping on the street today, I went to bathe in the dust."
Jiang Ruofu sat in the bathtub, looking at the rising heat, and involuntarily wet his eyes.
She is not qualified to be delusional, and she does not expect anyone to save her from this cage.
What she knows best is that she can't rely on anyone, and only by herself can she turn over.
Jiang Ruofu closed his eyes.
————
The scroll waits outside the screen,
"Master, is this water hot enough?"
Wen Guqi untied his shirt and climbed on the screen casually,
"You get out."
Song scroll busy,
"Yes."
Wen Guqi stepped into the bathtub with his long legs.
The stars on the horizon are connected, and the moon forms a circle.
The half-quarter moon slowly turns into a full moon.
Jiang Ruofu's thoughts were mixed, he sighed, opened his eyes, and saw a curling mist.
Reach for your clothes that you hang on a small shelf.
Unable to touch it, she waved her hand to dispel some of the fog.
Seeing the scene in front of her, she was still a little hesitant and couldn't react.
Wen Guqi stretched out his hand and waved the mist, and saw a small shelf not far away.
Hanging a conspicuous white lotus robe.
Wen Guqi: "......?" ”
Jiang Ruofu: "?!!! ”
