Chapter 21: Discovery
Xia Liyun followed Jinxin to deliver matcha to Li Yueshu.
The matcha was already cold when it was brought from Renhoutang, Li Yueshu didn't drink it, Xia Liyun smiled and said: "Sister-in-law wants to eat the matcha I made, it's better to let me bring the tools over and make it again, otherwise it will be better to send it over from Renhoutang after it is done, it's better to be hot and fresh from the oven, what does my sister-in-law think?" β
Sister-in-law.
Hearing this title, Li Yueshu was very unhappy.
Just because Xia Liyun is Wang Xiaojian's concubine, she can call her "sister-in-law" with Wang Xiaojian.
Since you are a concubine, you can't have a bed~ The joy of the pipe.
Thinking of Xia Liyun and Wang Xiaojian's bed. The joy of the song, Li Yueshu was sour in her heart, and she still hated.
changed a woman's bed, is Wang Xiaojian still like that?
Like a galloping horse, it can roam the grassland with its eyes closed, and the sound of horses' hooves is a little bit......
Li Yueshu seemed to see Xia Liyun's mengl under the horse's hooves-
The carnival horse's hooves stepped on the shape of fangl, and also stepped on her heartstrings, breaking her heartstrings one by oneβ
"Young lady?" Hearing Jinxin's reminder, Li Yueshu stabilized her mind.
In front of her was Xia Liyun's delicate and lovely smiling face.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you order someone to go to Renhoutang now and get all the tools for me to make matcha-"
"No need."
Li Yueshu sat with her hands clasped on her knees, and one fingernail secretly pinched into the palm of the other hand.
It's this pitiful little face that charms Wang Xiaojian, right?
Li Yueshu swallowed the resentment in her heart, smiled, and said: "Liyun, I mean to say, you can eat matcha at any time, don't be in a hurry, I made an appointment with the shopkeeper of Shui Yunxuan, and I went to his shop today to look at the jewelry, I plan to send it to Changping and you in two steps, you can go with me, you can just pick the style you like." β
Of course, Xia Liyun was happy and wanted to go, but she still said: "Since it was sent by my sister-in-law, my mind is precious, not in the style, of course, the style that my sister-in-law chooses must be the best, and my sister-in-law can choose it for me." I still went back to Renhoutang to make matcha for my sister-in-law, and when my sister-in-law came back from Shuiyunxuan, I could eat ready-made food directly after passing through Renhoutang. β
On the side, Jin Xin immediately said, "What do you mean by Aunt Yun?" Our young lady invited you to go shopping together, but you refused to appreciate your face? β
Xia Liyun smiled awkwardly: "Sister Jinxin said that she was laughing, my sister-in-law invited me to the street, I couldn't be happier, but I ...... It's just that the second young lady hasn't been ......"
"What does Aunt Yun mean, in this palace, is the second young lady even older than the eldest young lady?"
Jinxin's yin and yang are weird, Xia Liyun is unhappy, but she still said with a smile on her face: "Sister Jinxin is laughing again, the eldest young lady is the person in charge of the Wang family's back house, but after all, I am a person in the second room, and we concubines are soft-spoken, and we can't ignore the orders of the main room in everything, I think my sister-in-law will definitely be able to understand my embarrassment." β
Xia Liyun looked at Li Yueshu: "Didn't my sister-in-law say that the two steps were to be given to me and the second young lady respectively?" Then presumably the second young lady is also going to go together, right? β
Xia Liyun is a shrewd person, no matter how bad Shen Changping is, he is also his cousin, the two grew up together, and they are familiar enemies for so many years.
Li Yueshu is different, she always feels that Li Yueshu looks gloomy and evil, compared to Shen Changping, Xia Liyun feels that Li Yueshu is more dangerous, for example, last time she and Wang Xiaojian were almost about to cook raw rice and cooked rice, Li Yueshu came to knock on the door and extinguished Wang Xiaojian's fire.
For some reason, Xia Liyun saw Li Yueshu and felt a danger signal in her heart, wanting to beware of her.
In short, she didn't want to, and she didn't want to go to Li Yueshu, let alone go out with her, unless Shen Changping also went.
Li Yueshu asked Jinxin to go to Renhoutang to invite Shen Changping to visit Shui Yunxuan together, and Jinxin came back soon, saying that Shen Changping had prepared a carriage over there, and said that there were more people there than one carriage to sit in, so Xia Liyun and Li Yueshu could sit in the same carriage.
"The second young lady can't wait to bring all the girls from the Shen family to marry on the street, no wonder a carriage can't sit down." Jinxin smiled and threw Xia Liyun a sympathetic look.
Li Yueshu said: "Is there a girl who doesn't have a call around Liyun? β
Xia Liyun smiled embarrassedly: "It's all the girls of the Shen family, and I share it with the second young lady." β
"How can there be a girl to share? When we go to Shui Yunxuan and come back, I will let you pick two of the maids at my hand. Li Yueshu said magnanimously, and asked Jinxin to change her clothes.
Li Yueshu glanced at Xia Liyun's clothes again and said, "Do you want Liyun to change her clothes too?" As he spoke, he changed his tone again, "This place is far away from Renhoutang, and when you go back and change your clothes, I'm afraid that the second young lady will be impatient to wait, so it's better to change my clothes." β
said, and changed his words: "My clothes definitely don't fit you, wait until you finish visiting Shui Yunxuan, and then I will take you to the 'Guangfulin' cloth village and cut two clothes......"
In the face of Li Yueshu's enthusiasm, Xia Liyun was heartbroken, but she was still flattered and full of gratitude: "My sister-in-law is as close to Liyun as a sister, I got married, and my uncle and aunt gave me a lot of dowries, and there were two boxes of new clothes in between, so sister-in-law should not break the bank." β
"The marriage of Master Shen and Mrs. Shen is their intention, I want to make you new clothes and jewelry, this is my intention, you can't live up to both of your intentions."
Li Yueshu changed into a blue cherry blossom collared skirt, which lined her slender figure, but she was dignified, and took Xia Liyun's hand out of the palace and got into the carriage, all the way to Shui Yunxuan.
Horse-drawn carriages sailed through Qidu Street.
Xia Liyun lifted the curtain to look at the street scene.
Qi has come to the new King of Qi, showing a new atmosphere, with many shops on the streets, people coming and going, a prosperous scene.
This made Xia Liyun, who was trapped in the cage, inevitably feel a sense of joy to come out and breathe, and the sense of oppression in the carriage with Li Yueshu gradually decreased.
The carriage soon stopped at the gate of Shui Yun Xuan.
Xia Liyun followed Li Yueshu into the gate of Shui Yunxuan, and couldn't help but look left and right: Shen Changping, what about people?
Jinxin said: "Oh, the eldest young lady, Aunt Yun, the second young lady was originally going to come together, but she was invited by the lady to go to the house, and she couldn't come." β
Xia Liyun's heart suddenly felt empty.
Li Yueshu took her hand and walked into Shui Yunxuan, and smiled Yan Yan all the way: "Changping didn't come, Liyun, you pick a step for her The style is the same, your cousins must have similar vision, you see, even the married husband is our uncle." β
Shui Yunxuan's jewelry shop can't find a second one in Qidu, and the reception is all the wives and ladies of the nobles of the family, and the families of declining officials like the Wang family are really not distinguished guests.
But Li Yueshu used to play the signboard of his aunt and Mrs. Li, so he could also get some attentive service.
The shopkeeper took out all the latest style pattern drawings for Li Yueshu and Xia Liyun to choose, and introduced on the side: "This year, the popular step shake is no longer the old style of gold bending into the shape of a dragon and phoenix in the past, in addition to being decorated with pearls and jade, there are also birds and beasts and flower branches, or mixed with hairpins, and the finished products are made, and the ladies and ladies are shining on the hairpins, and every step ......is swaying and shining."
The shopkeeper had a lotus flower, and Li Yueshu pointed to two of the drawings for Xia Liyun to choose, and there was nothing unusual in the whole process.
Shui Yunxuan came out and went to Guangfulin Buzhuang again.
The same, under the sign of Dr. Li's wife, he received quite thoughtful service.
I ordered the jewelry, ordered the new clothes, and went home.
Xia Liyun was in a trance.
Looking at Li Yueshu's soft, kind and beautiful smiling face, holding her hand and chatting for a short time, Xia Liyun felt that she was probably a villain's heart.
No matter how bad this Li Yueshu is, can he be worse than Shen Changping?
Shen Changping will only bully her with obscenity, where is it like Li Yueshu who is sending clothes and jewelry, showing favor like this, it seems that he really wants to envelop her.
After all, they are all concubines in the Wang family's house, and there is no reason not to get along with her.
She is the concubine of the second room, what is the matter with the big house? It was not Li Yueshu's husband who robbed it.
Thinking like this, Xia Liyun gradually breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and took the initiative to talk to Li Yueshu about the Shen family, about Shen Changping's troubles since he was a child, and intentionally or unintentionally alluded to Shen Changping's escape from marriage.
Li Yueshu said: "Liyun, you forgot, Changping told me about this matter. β
Xia Liyun was stunned, yes, she actually forgot that Shen Changping's little slut would expose her own stain without confessing to herself.
This made Xia Liyun feel a little depressed.
was depressed, when he heard Jinxin in front of the carriage exclaim: "Isn't that the second son?" β
The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and Li Yueshu asked outside, "What's the matter, Jinxin?" β
The curtain of the car was lifted, and Jinxin's stunned and panicked face poked in: "The slave maid saw it...... The slave and maid saw ...... Second son......"
When Li Yueshu pulled Xia Liyun down from the carriage, she saw the words "Jin Meilou".
It's a big row of noodles, and there are guys soliciting business in front of the store, rubbing powder, and hairpins and flowers in their ears.
The song of the warbler, the laughter and laughter kept floating out of the two floors, what an xh nest.
It's not ......
Xia Liyun was stunned.
Li Yueshu had already asked Jinxin: "Jinxin, you read it right?" β
"It's the second son, the slave and maid can't be mistaken." Jinxin was sure, and he still showed an angry expression.
Li Yueshu was also angry, looked at the words "Jin Meilou" from a distance, and said: "This uncle is too unorthodox, the head of the family just gave him a wife and a concubine, he ...... If Mrs. knows about this, Mrs. will be sick again, Liyun, what do you say? What to do? β
Wang Xiaojian visited Jinmei Building, and Xia Liyun was also very annoyed.
When he was with her, he was fake again and again.
I haven't had anything to do with her, so I turned my head and came to visit Jinmei Building, what kind of trouble is Wang Xiaojian doing?
She can't wait to go in and pull Wang Xiaojian out right now-
"Liyun, why don't you go in?"
Xia Liyun had that thought in her heart, and Li Yueshu proposed.
Of course Xia Liyun didn't dare, she glanced at the door of Jinmei Building, and was embarrassed: "But sister-in-law, I'm a woman, how can a woman go to this kind of place?" β
"Then is it just watching Uncle make a mistake? You're a woman in your uncle's house, won't you give him a hand? In case Uncle lingers in this kind of place in the future, then who else does our Wang family rely on? β
Li Yueshu made a lot of sense, but Xia Liyun was helpless.
What if she broke in rashly and pulled Wang Xiaojian back? I'm afraid that Wang Xiaojian will be even more to her from now on-
Xia Liyun was in a dilemma, when she heard a voice sound: "Cousin Yueshu-"
Everyone looked towards the place where the voice came from, but saw a young man in a skirt waving a fan.
