Chapter 111: The ghost lingers
In the summer, there is a lot of rain, and there is often a sudden torrential rain. The continuous drizzle alone can rain for a few days and nights, and the water level of the Jincheng River has risen significantly.
The river runs through the city from the south and winds around the city to the west. When the weather cleared, the women of the people went together to wash their clothes and skirts on the banks of the river west of the city.
After the emperor ascended the throne, he ordered the improvement of the river embankment along the river, and took strict care of the neatness and greenery, and specially invited the master of the Sijing Garden to take care of the flowers along the river. This also won the praise and lingering of envoys from other countries.
The riverbank in early spring and midsummer is often liked by girls and sons, the spring breeze blows, the spring is appreciated together, the bell is smiling, happy and chic.
Rosin put all the clothes in the cupboard on the bed and compared them, and her mouth was full of words.
"This set of goose yellow, lining the color of the young lady's complexion. This set of apricot red has not been worn yet, but the pattern is not very conspicuous, but it will be pressed by other ladies. I like this set of begonia red the most, but it's a pity that I bumped into the eldest lady today. Or this is the water green...... By the way, which outfit do you want to wear, Miss? ”
Su Xiangsi chewed a shrimp dumpling slowly, shook her head in disgust, and didn't want to go out today. As soon as the day was polished with rosin, she began to pick out dresses, and if she hadn't stopped them in time, she almost hung out all the dresses in the warehouse.
I don't expect my own lady to make any choice, Rosin exclaimed, and said with annoyance: "I haven't chosen a hair accessory yet!" Raising the volume at the half-open lattice window: "Catkins, go to the warehouse to get the head of the mutton fat jade golden silk begonia flowers." ”
"Great!"
Su Xiangsi silently had breakfast outside and let the two of them toss.
On the second day of the proposed trip to the lake, the big room and the second room sent someone to send out invitation stickers. Being kicked out of the door by the Ministry of War can make them lose face, and the relationship between the two governments has been old and dead, and it is estimated that it is a break of righteousness.
If Su Qing had been smarter, she would have used this game to help General Su's Mansion win back a little face.
After eating and drinking, sit in front of the vanity mirror and let the rosin tinker make up and hair. The more expensive and rare the hair bun with the head and face, the simpler it is, and if it is too complicated, it will look vulgar and old-fashioned.
Su Xiangsi is now a delicate age, and a slightly layered bun with this set of hair will not suppress her age, but make her whole person smart and delicate.
Sheep fat jade is rare, three begonia flowers less than the size of a palm, the cascading petals are fine and distinct, and even the stamens are a little vivid. What's more, each petal is wrapped with gold wires, and only when the sun shines outdoors can you see a flash of dazzling.
Mutton fat jade is usually polished into jade and worn on the body, and it is even rarer to have a complete set of heads like Su Xiangsi.
Traced thin eyebrows, lightly smeared rouge, and sipped lip grease. It's not an exaggeration to say it's completely new.
The aqua green dress is embroidered with yellow and white wood hydrangeas in different postures at the cuffs and neckline and the bottom of the skirt. With the moon white water pattern waist seal just embroidered with rosin, the body line is outlined.
The beauty moves and falls into the city, quiet and sinks.
Hanging the small sachet around his waist, the rosin checked it from head to place, confirmed that it was correct, and nodded with satisfaction. Other young ladies live delicately and meticulously every day, and how comfortable their own ladies are.
Which girl will practice calligraphy with her legs crossed.
On the embankment, Su Qing and Su Yiling gathered together with four or five pretty figures, and a few meters away was Su Mingyuan and Su Mingjin with their friends.
Su Xiangsi was the last to arrive, and as soon as he opened the carriage, he attracted everyone's attention. Su Qing took a deep breath, and her face struggled to keep a smile on her face.
Today's Su Xiangsi is different, and the appearance of not fighting or grabbing on weekdays is completely different.
For a while, I couldn't say what the difference was.
She has good things on her body that she often wears on weekdays, and she is not a low-key person. Why does it make people feel different when they see it today?
"Ming Yuan, I didn't expect your third sister to be so shocked."
"You two hid her so tightly, and you're afraid that we won't be able to rob her."
"I have long heard that the third lady of General Su's Mansion has finally witnessed her true face today......"
What girls care about most is nothing more than comparing jewelry and clothes. The moment I saw Su Xiangsi, I was amazed and envious at the same time. After all...... In the end, she is the daughter of General Su.
"It's such a big shelf, let everyone wait for you together, I really take myself seriously." The girl in the lake blue dress is the daughter of the Zuodu Yushi surnamed Ma, and her temperament is relatively fiery.
In her eyes, Su Xiangsi is a bully. Relying on the support of General Su's Mansion behind him, he dared to save Xu Qiuqing's face even if he didn't know his talent.
The last one to come, even if it comes, it is more eye-catching than the people present, and more conspicuous than Su Qing Haitang Red.
Su Xin stood firmly on the ground, bowed slightly with a few young ladies and said with a wry smile: "Things are complicated in the house, and it is the first time for me to take over such a big business, so I am a little late." All the pastries and tea on the cruise ship today are carefully prepared by me, and I hope you don't dislike it. ”
Everyone present was stunned, hearing that the third lady was taking care of the residential courtyard alone, but they didn't expect that they would be able to intervene in the management of the mansion. When people in a large mansion live together, they must not only be able to take care of it, but also understand the world.
"Don't blame my third sister, otherwise I'll be angry, I begged her for a long time to take her out of the house to relax." Su Qing made a round and beckoned everyone to get on the boat.
There are more than 20 people in the master's retinue, but fortunately, General Su's Mansion has the strength to rent a large cruise ship that can accommodate everyone.
The boat is slowly moving on the river, and occasionally encounters a few small boats enjoying the scenery together, and the boats on Su Xiangsi's side are full of young talents and fairies with extraordinary appearances, which attracts the attention of others.
The people who are invited today are acquaintances with each other.
Su Xiangsi is alone again, with no friends and no friends.
Acquaintances always talk speculatively when they get together to talk, Su Xiangsi sits a little farther away, after all, he is not familiar with each other, and it will always be embarrassing to forcibly mix together.
Everyone is also interested in mentioning the rumors they heard half a month ago, and they don't mean to call Su Xiangsi when they talk and drink.
"Third sister, we want to play drumming and passing flowers, why don't you join us." Su Yiling's gaze swept over her, even if her stomach sat in a corner, it still attracted people here.
She had a hunch that her third sister would be terrible in the future.
Su Xiangsi smiled and nodded: "I haven't played it yet, and I still need everyone to let me order." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's just a little game to pass the time." The other sons hurriedly followed.
Childe and Miss sat interspersed, and willow branches came out of Su Qing's hands, and the rhythm of the maid's drumming became faster and faster. The willow branch sped up and passed through everyone's hands.
The drum beat suddenly stopped, and everyone stood up for their movements. The willow branch stayed in the hands of Miss Ye, the daughter of the head of the Hanlin Academy.
Miss Ye is the most demure boudoir woman Su Xiangsi has ever seen, with a light smile on her lips, quietly listening to other people's words carefully, and occasionally inserting a sentence or two is also soft and soft.
A note was pulled out of the bamboo box, and there was no text in it. Miss Ye covered her mouth and snickered: "I'm disappointed everyone, I won an empty ticket in the first round." ”
Su Qing then regretted: "I thought I could listen to you play a song." ”
In the coaxing, the willow branch began to pass from Miss Ye's hand, and Su Qing just took over the willow branch drum and the sound suddenly stopped.
Everyone laughed out loud and applauded Su Qing to hurry up and draw lots. He pulled out a slip of paper with the word 'dance' written in cursive writing.
Su Qing and Le Ling whispered and danced with the vocal music on the deck, and the name of the talented girl is also well-founded, and it can be seen that the strength is good after a few simple dances.
Barely a dance, Su Xiangsi swept the reactions of other people without a trace, and only the sons and buddies were immersed in it.
The dance slowly stopped with the music, and before the people on this ship were born, there were bursts of applause on the other ship.
Su Xiangsi looked for prestige, couldn't help but not roll his eyes, and sighed lightly in his heart.
