Chapter 279: The Lame Duck
"I've seen the eldest lady, the third lady."
Jiang Yunqing first saluted Mrs. Chen, and then smiled at Xu: "Uncle." ”
Xu Shi hurriedly took her hand and asked her to get up, then looked at her dress, and said with a smile in his eyes:
"There was a bump on the road yesterday, and I wanted you to rest for a while, so I didn't look for you, but I didn't think that you came by yourself."
Jiang Yunqing pursed her lips and chuckled: "I heard Sister Chen say that there was a pre-hunting drumming and archery performance today, so I followed her." ”
Mrs. Chen laughed out loud when she heard this: "My Ah Ying is a leather monkey, and she is used to liking these things that dance with knives and swords, and it is a shame that she didn't give her a boy, otherwise she would have run to the battlefield this time." ”
Chen Ying didn't care when she heard this, and pouted: "Mother, how can I have it?!" ”
"No, who pestered your eldest brother to learn martial arts last time, and was found out by your grandmother and punished you for embroidering a mandarin duck, and ended up making a lame duck?"
Chen Ying's face suddenly turned red, and she stomped her feet and said: "Mother, scolding people don't reveal the shortcomings, won't I be able to embroider soon, so what's the matter, there are many embroiderers with good embroidery skills in Beijing, and not every woman can embroider......"
After speaking, as if she was looking for a helper, she turned her head and took Jiang Yunqing's hand and said, "Sister Jiang, are you right about what I said?" ”
Jiang Yunqing was amused by her, and said seriously: "You're right, I don't know how to embroider." ”
Chen Ying suddenly became angry, wrinkled her nose and said arrogantly to Mrs. Chen: "Mother, do you hear, it's not that I'm not the only one who can't embroider." ”
Seeing her angry and funny like this, Mrs. Chen stretched out her hand and poked her in the head, and said angrily:
"Come on, you don't have a door, I know that you have your sister Jiang to support your face, and I can't say you for my mother."
"It's rare to come out once, hurry up and take your sixth sister and sister Jiang to play with you, I will have a headache when I look at you."
Chen Ying rubbed her head, stuck out her tongue at Mrs. Chen and made a grimace, and then pulled Jiang Yunqing and Chen Xuan to the side.
The county lord of Shao'an came early, and there were several young girls around him.
When Chen Ying saw her from afar, he pulled Jiang Yunqing and Chen Xuan over together, and when they got closer, Chen Ying called her cousin vividly, and Chen Xuan and Jiang Yunqing saluted: "I've seen the county lord." ”
When Shao'an saw that it was them, a smile bloomed on his face.
"Come on, don't be so outside, Ah Xuan, you are Ah Ying's sister, half a year younger than me, so she will call me cousin."
After she finished speaking to Chen Xuan, she turned her head to Jiang Yunqing and said with a smile: "As for Yunqing, if you want, you can call me Shao'an or Ah Chan." ”
The lord of Shao'an is the daughter of the Qi Wangfu, and her single name is a chan character.
She can talk to Jiang Yunqing like this, and let her call her by her name, which obviously means extremely close.
The girls next to them were all nobles in Beijing, and not all of them entered the palace during the palace banquet before, and when Jiang Yunqing and Li Yunshu had a dispute yesterday, they were not all present.
Several of them only knew the Chen sisters, but they didn't know Jiang Yunqing.
Seeing that the county lord of Shao'an was so close to this beautiful girl with a gentle temperament, some of them couldn't help but smile and asked: "I don't know which young lady this is, can be so favored by the county lord?" ”
The county lord of Shao'an smiled: "Her name is Jiang Yunqing, and she is the granddaughter of General Meng. ”
"Yun Qing, this is Mrs. Xie's granddaughter, Xie Ruoyu, the fourth lady of the Xie family."
