Chapter 52: Wisdom Pattern
"Alas, your brother is not angry, he is jealous with those shameless people all day long, and Uncle Zhen is also involved, your brother refuses to say in detail, and I don't want to ask carefully, but I can guess one or two, in short, thanks to meeting Aunt Sun, this life was picked up, I just told the old lady, my aunt is short-tempered, but he is also a sentimental, but you can bear with me more." Aunt Xue said to Yingchun in a slow voice.
"Welcome girl, don't be angry with your uncle, he came back with you this time, I heard that he also brought a lot of things, I don't think he is as unbearable as you said, my uncle is about to go on the expedition, don't make him angry at this juncture." At this time, Jia Mu also said to Yingchun.
Yingchun listened to these words, but her heart was very depressed.
Can't you guys see that he hurt my face and made me angry with him? If I don't fight back, it's already my self-cultivation.
Yingchun complained in his stomach, but he still said with a smile on his face: "Where will I provoke him, I usually hide away and don't talk to him, I won't be angry with him, ancestor, aunt rest assured." Yingchun said as he reached out and touched his cheek.
"You," Aunt Xue smiled helplessly, and said: "By the way, I heard yesterday that in the time-honored clothing hall in Beijing, in the spring of February, there was a great clothier, and the noble women of the entire capital were vying for the clothes she made. β
As soon as Aunt Xue's words came out, Jia Mu, Xichun and others were frightened, and looked at Yingchun with straight eyes.
When Yingchun heard this, he frowned and smiled, and then said, "This is a long story, eh, that clothier is indeed me." β
"Second sister, this is not like you." Xichun said in surprise.
"I swear I don't need his grandson's money, so I have to find another way." Yingchun said with a light smile.
"Ouch, the second girl is really amazing, I heard that Februarychun is now squeezed out of the head and can't squeeze in, I originally wanted to ask for a wedding dress for your sister Bao there, but I had to give up, it turns out that the second girl still has this craft, why didn't I know it before." Aunt Xue said with a smile.
"Auntie has won the award, and Sister Bao's wedding dress is naturally wrapped around me." Yingchun said hurriedly.
"Ying girl, the injury on your face this time, but his hand because of this?" Jia Mu began to listen to the two of them silently, and then suddenly asked in a deep voice.
"Well, thisβthis does have something to do with thisβ" Yingchun said hesitantly, touching his cheeks.
She was thinking about how to explain this matter to Jia Mu and the others, but she saw a noise outside the door.
Yingchun raised his eyes, but saw Xue Pan pulling Sun Shaozu, invited by his brother-in-law, and only let him inside.
"Let them remove this small table and replace it with a big one, Mother, I just asked someone to go to the store to get that fine Taibai wine, and today I want to have a drink with my brother-in-law." Xue Pan shouted at the top of his voice.
"It's time to fight, why are you so unruly! I haven't seen my ancestor yet! Aunt Xue said angrily in a low voice.
"It's okay, I haven't seen my grandson-in-law for a long time, so let's sit down together." Jia Mu looked at Sun Shaozu and said with a slightly cold expression.
It's one thing to help Xue Pan, it's another thing to beat her granddaughter.
"Thank you, grandmother, son-in-law to meet grandmother." Sun Shaozu saluted, and saw that Jia's mother was slightly cold, and Yingchun touched her injured cheek with one hand, thinking that this woman had counted him down at her family's female relatives again.
"The son-in-law came to the door, it was a distinguished guest, mandarin duck, go open the cabinet and put the screen with the wisdom pattern." Jia Mu said to a maid behind her.
The mandarin duck received the order and walked out.
Sun Shaozu didn't know what Huiwen was, but the Yingchun sisters and Aunt Xue in the house were taken aback.
"The ancestor can see that he loves his son-in-law, I have only seen this screen twice, and today it is my son-in-law." Aunt Xue said with a smile.
Aunt Xue is a kind person, not to mention that Sun Shaozu helped Xue Pan, so this is said very kindly.
As soon as Sun Shaozu heard that it was such a rare thing, he hurriedly bowed down and thanked him repeatedly.
At this moment, Jia Yu actually came with Mrs. Xing again, Jia's mother thought that the two of them were here to ask for peace, and she didn't want to say that she wanted to stay and have dinner with Sun Shaozu.
So she asked again: "What about the second master, since this is the case, it is better to call together, it is rare for us to have a meal together so neatly." β
Jia Yu naturally didn't dare to say that Jia Zheng was going to deal with the boxes of things brought by the Zhen family, so he hurriedly replied: "The second master only had a colleague to talk about things, so he went out." β
Jia Mu sighed, her eyebrows sank, but she immediately laughed again and said, "Since that's the case, let's just eat." β
So I called Sister Feng Li Kun, Yingchun was a guest at this time, so she sat with Aunt Xue next to Jia's mother on the left and right, and Xichun sat in Yingchun.
At this time, the maids brought out the wisdom screen and put it on. When Sister Feng saw it, she smiled again and said, "It is said that the son-in-law is a coquette, and the ancestor has turned out all the family wealth this time." β
Everyone laughed, but saw Mother Jia say to Sun Shaozu: "Son-in-law, do you know what this is?" β
Sun Shaozu looked at the screen, but saw that it was a color of red sandalwood openwork, which was embedded with red gauze embroidered flowers and cursive poems, he didn't know how to appreciate this thing, but just thought it was good-looking, so he said: "This screen looks more exquisite than other places, although I don't understand, but listening to my aunt and sister-in-law, it can be seen that this thing is naturally very rare."
"It's not strange that you don't understand it, don't talk about you, in this capital, I'm afraid there aren't many people who have seen this thing." Jia Mu smiled, and then said to Sun Shaozu: "The embroidered jewels on this screen are all from the hands of a Gusu woman named Hui Niang. β
Mother Jia paused for a moment, and then said: "This Hui Niang, is also a lady of the family, her father's official, no smaller than our family, Hui Niang is talented, this is the family of scholars and eunuchs, and is good at calligraphy and painting, these embroidery works, are made according to the previous dynasty of everyone's broken branches and flowers, the color is elegant, you see these grass words, are embroidered with black velvet, and the handwriting turns, weight, and even breaks are no different from the pen grass, so this world is a rich and noble family, competition and seeking, but it is a pity that this Hui Niang died early in her life, and died at the age of less than eighteen, Therefore, there are very few Hui embroideries left. β
Jia Mu said this, sighed, and then turned to Sun Shaozu and said: "Son-in-law, you see, this Hui Niang, for these eunuchs to do these embroidery, if her parents and brothers stop it, how can we see such exquisite Yingluo, besides, these embroideries of hers are circulated in the hands of these scholarly eunuchs, and no one says that she does not abide by women's morals and humiliates the family, just because this tailoring and embroidery is one of the requirements of women's virtue and appearance, and there is no transgression." β
"My family has always been spoiled with girls, and Ying'er has always been docile, I naturally don't discipline her much, when I get to my husband's house, if there is a place that can't be done, you should discipline and discipline, but if it's because she makes a few clothes for the daughter of a famous embroidery family, you hurt her like this, my old bones, but I can't stand it."
After Jia Mu said this in one breath, she stopped talking, only picked up the teacup, and looked at Sun Shaozu while drinking tea.
Yingchun listened, but she was stunned, she didn't expect that Jia Mu would stand up for herself like this, a warm current instantly gushed out from the bottom of her heart, and her throat felt a little choked.
