I can't help but feel a little embarrassed in my heart, but now, they can only take one step at a time.

Before she entered the courtyard, she saw that the courtyard was full of girls with different costumes from the Guogong Mansion, and when she saw Jiang Yuanliu coming in, the girls from the Guogong Mansion saluted her: "I've seen the eldest lady." ”

The expressions of the slaves and maids of the Yuan Kingdom Mansion were slightly stunned, and then they also saluted: "I've seen Miss Jiang." ”

"Get up." Jiang Yuanliu didn't have the heart to deal with them now, but just replied lightly, and then stepped into the house with Chun Tao.

Every time I crossed the threshold, I saw the little girl who lifted the curtain and greeted herself loudly, for fear that the Duchess inside would not know that she was coming.

As soon as he stepped into the inner room, he saw the old lady sitting on the first seat as the head of the family.

And to the left of her seat sat a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing a long skirt with a lake green moire pattern.

Next to the beautiful woman sat a young girl wearing a goose-yellow floor-length dress.

Presumably, these two people in front of them are the ladies and ladies of the Yuan State Mansion.

When the three people in the house saw Jiang Yuanliu coming in, their eyes immediately looked at Jiang Yuanliu, and the old lady's eyes quickly flashed a trace of displeasure.

But then he quickly hid the unhappiness, and said with a smile: "Look at you, you are not in good health, why did you come here?" ”

Jiang Yuanliu walked up to the old lady with a smile, saluted her with a graceful posture, and said respectfully, "Greeting grandmother is my daughter's daily homework, how can I be lazy because I am unwell."

Hearing this, the old lady was angry in her heart, what is the daily homework, since she moved back to this country's mansion, Jiang Yuanliu has only been here a few times?

Now as soon as she heard that the lady and young lady of the Yuanguo Mansion were coming, she ran over, and she looked like an unconscious person.

It's just that in front of outsiders, the old lady naturally can't get angry, so she can only pretend to be deaf and dumb and swallow this anger, and then said kindly, "Chun Tao, don't hurry up and help your young lady up, her body is weak, and she is the most tired." ”

Immediately, he pointed at Jiang Yuanliu and said with a smile to the lady of the Yuanguo Mansion: "My granddaughter is the most filial, and she is also diligent on weekdays. It's just that because of the occasional cold yesterday, I got up late today, and I ask Mrs. Yuan not to blame. ”

The lady of the Yuanguo Mansion listened to what the old lady said and smiled: "It is really rare to be as filial as the eldest lady among these young people, old lady, you are really blessed." ”

It's just that who can't hear the old lady's words?

On the surface, he was praising Jiang Yuanliu, but in fact, he said that Jiang Yuanliu was now in a relationship with Gu Houfu, so he was pampered and arrogant and deliberately postponed the time to come to ask for peace under the pretext of illness, and his temperament couldn't help but be a little frivolous.

Jiang Yuanliu didn't say anything, but walked to the opposite position and sat down quietly, calmly listening to the old lady's malicious slander against him.

There was a cold light in the half-drooping eyes, but there was always an extremely soft smile on the corner of his mouth.

And when the old lady saw that the lady of the Yuan Guo Mansion mentioned Jiang Yuanliu, she had to speak: "Liu'er, don't come and see Mrs. Yuan and Miss Yuan soon." ”

Jiang Yuanliu slowly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up obediently, walked to the round and jade Mrs. Yuan, and said respectfully: "Jiang Yuanliu has seen Mrs. Yuan. ”

"What a boy who knows how to be polite, hurry up." Mrs. Yuan said with a smile, her voice was extremely gentle, but there was a hint of shrewdness in her tone that could not be ignored.

Then Jiang Yuanliu came to Miss Yuan again, and the two sides stood up and saluted together: "I've seen Miss Yuan (Jiang)." ”

Jiang Yuanliu raised her head, the young lady of the Yuanguo Mansion in front of the meeting looked very similar to her mother, her face was ruddy, and her good-looking apricot eyes revealed the same calculation and shrewdness as her mother, and she really fulfilled her mother's true inheritance.

It's just that this Miss Yuan family, like Concubine Huirong, rarely participates in banquets on weekdays, and even does not participate in banquets between Miss Boudoir on weekdays, so Jiang Yuanliu knows very little about her, and only knows that this Miss Yuan Family's boudoir is the pearl of the old lady of the Yuan Mansion.

When Jiang Yuanliu looked at Yuanyuanyuan, the other party also observed Jiang Yuanliu carefully.

Especially when he saw Jiang Yuanliu's beautiful and vulgar face, Yuan Yuanyuan said with a smile: "Miss Jiang is really captivating, which makes Yuanyuan feel ashamed." ”

Jiang Yuanliu couldn't help but smile lightly when he heard this, and said modestly: "Miss Yuan is really an award, Yuanliu is just an ordinary person, how can she bear the name of this alluring city?" ”

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yuanliu turned back to his seat, sat quietly and did not speak.

Mrs. Yuan on the side took the opportunity to observe Jiang Yuanliu carefully, but when she saw the phoenix hairpin on Jiang Yuanliu's head, a look of surprise quickly flashed in her eyes, and then she pretended to be unintentional and said, "The phoenix hairpin style on Miss Jiang's head is really chic. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention turned to the phoenix hairpin on Jiang Yuanliu's right sideburn, and a trace of panic quickly flashed in the old lady's eyes.

Immediately said in a deep voice, "Liu'er, do you know that this phoenix hairpin is not something that anyone can wear, where did you get this phoenix hairpin?" ”

Even if the old lady is ignorant, only this phoenix hairpin can only be worn by ladies and ladies with special status.

Although Jiang Yuanliu is said to be the daughter of the Guogong Mansion, he also has no such qualifications.

If this matter spreads, I am afraid that even my own grandchildren will be implicated.

Jiang Yuanliu looked at the old lady as if she wanted to blame herself, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, and then slowly spoke: "Back to grandmother's words, this is what the girls sent to her granddaughter's yard this morning, and her granddaughter saw that this phoenix hairpin style was exquisite and beautiful, so she used it, I don't know what's wrong?" ”

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that I see that this phoenix hairpin is a bit like the one that Princess Ping brought back then. "Since it was sent to the courtyard by the maids, Jiang Fengmao naturally knew about it.

Mrs. Yuan would not delve into this matter, but showed great interest in this hairpin.

As soon as these words came out, even Yuan Yuanyuan, who had been smiling and silent, stared at the phoenix hairpin in Jiang Yuanliu's hair, although there was a smile in his eyes, but the envy in his eyes was faintly revealed.

As soon as the old lady heard Mrs. Yuan's deliberate explanation, her heart immediately swelled with anger, and after she heard that Jiang Yuanliu was given marriage to Gu Jinshu in the mansion yesterday, her heart ached faintly.

At this time, I heard that this phoenix hairpin was the phoenix hairpin worn by Princess Ping back then, and I was even more angry and clenched my hands.

It's just that if this phoenix hairpin really flowed out of Princess Ping's hands, then now the phoenix hairpin is either Pingwangfu or Gu Houfu.

In other words, they have now fully recognized Jiang Yuanliu's identity, if they take the opportunity to embarrass Jiang Yuanliu at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that this girl will not take the opportunity to take revenge on her grandson in the future.

Thinking like this, the old lady barely suppressed the anger in her heart after a while, but now she didn't want to see Jiang Yuanliu at all.

So he reluctantly said with a smile: "Liu'er, you might as well take Miss Yuan to the garden of the Guogong Mansion for a walk, lest I talk to Mrs. Yuan, and you young people will also find it boring." ”

Jiang Yuanliu saw that the old lady wanted to drive herself away, and knew that this phoenix hairpin must have suppressed the arrogance in her heart this time, so she got up with a satisfied smile.

On the other side, Yuan Yuanyuan had long wanted to sit here and listen to their lectures, so she just used the excuse to go out, so the two walked out of the front hall one after another.

The two walked silently on the path of the Guogong Mansion, and a breeze blew from time to time in the surrounding bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves made a 'swish' sound, which added a touch of dynamic beauty to the Guogong Mansion.

Jiang Yuanliu carefully read the surrounding environment, but Yuan Yuanyuan's eyes were looking at Jiang Yuanliu carefully.

Only then did he speak: "Miss Jiang, you are now the envy of the entire Kyoto daughter." ”

Seeing that Yuan Yuanyuan finally couldn't help but speak, Jiang Yuanliu stopped to look at her, and asked with a smile: "Miss Yuan, how can you say this?" Yuanliu never felt that he had anything to envy. ”

Yuan Yuanyuan was not annoyed when he saw Jiang Yuanliu like this, but with a regretful tone, he continued to speak: "The little marquis asked for marriage in public yesterday, and this matter has spread all over the streets and alleys of Kyoto. Miss Jiang can be said to be the winner of the bird's screen, isn't she the envy of everyone who is so lucky? ”

This sentence sounds like a compliment, but what it contains is a slow disdain for Jiang Yuanliu.

Bird screen selection? Whether this Miss Yuan is exalting herself, or taking the opportunity to belittle Jiang Yuanliu, I'm afraid you don't need to think about it to know.

And Jiang Yuanliu looked at the expression on her face quietly, and seeing that Yuan Yuanyuan was still smiling, Jiang Yuanliu also smiled and said: "Yuan Liu has been raised outside since he was a child, and he knows that he is incompatible with the ladies in Kyoto, and he will become a laughing stock in the eyes of others." ”

Hearing this, the smile on Yuan Yuanyuan's face immediately dissipated, and he looked at Jiang Yuanliu with apologetic eyes in his eyes, and immediately explained: "I'm sorry Miss Jiang, this is not my intention. I just envy Miss Jiang for being able to get a good marriage.

How many of the women of our clan like us can be truly happy? With the courage of the little marquis yesterday to ask for marriage, that is also Miss Jiang's blessing. ”

After speaking, Yuan Yuanyuan's hands twisted the Juanpa in his hand, looking like he didn't know what to do.

Seeing her explain like this, Jiang Yuanliu looked at Yuan Yuanyuan with a completely unscheming look, so he said with a soft look: "Miss Yuan, don't be like this, Yuan Liu is just joking." Let's go, I'll take you to the garden of the Guogong Mansion now. ”
