Chapter 153: Demonization
Bai Jiujiu pursed her lips secretly and rolled her eyes at her vaguely.
Soon the second round began, and I don't know if God is helping Bai. Mengting, after a few turns, the flower fell into Bai Jiujiu's hands. Seeing this, Meng Ting immediately stood up and said, "When I was in the boudoir, my sister's dancing was far better than mine, and now it must be blue, everyone should appreciate it." ”
When everyone heard this, they were really interested, after all, white. Mengting's dancing posture is already one of the best.
How could Bai Jiujiu not understand this little trick, since the other party wanted her to make a fool of herself, how could she easily let her get her wish.
Facing everyone's burning eyes, Bai Jiujiu stood up and whispered a few words to the maid beside him.
"Humph! Airs. "Others may not know, but white. Meng Ting is very clear, as a concubine, it is not easy to survive in the back house, then there will be a chance to learn talents, Bai Jiujiu is afraid that she doesn't even know what dancing is.
White. Meng Ting sneered in her heart, just waiting for a while to see Bai Jiujiu's joke.
After a while, the maid beside Bai Jiujiu brought paper and ink, and everyone said in their hearts, this is to paint.
Although surprised, they all maintained the reserve of everyone's ladies, did not go up to watch, Bai Jiujiu calmly lifted the pen and sketched it carefully on the paper.
I saw peonies leaping on the paper, and faintly formed a human face, everyone looked at it, isn't that the county lady?
"I wish Mrs. County will always be more delicate than flowers." Bai Jiujiu put down the pen and bowed to the person above.
Who doesn't like to be praised, the county magistrate's wife is naturally no exception, after hearing this, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were dyed with a smile, "Someone." ”
The maid came up with a tray, and when she saw the contents of the tray, everyone breathed in unison, and there was a delicate step in it, and the gold wire was stacked to make the shape of a butterfly, shining in the sun.
Mrs. County Ling called her forward, and a smiling hairpin was in her hair.
"Thank you, Madame, for the reward."
White. Meng Ting hated her teeth on the side, you must know that there is no reward when she dances.
Glancing at her proudly, Bai Jiujiu stroked the steps between his sideburns, and deliberately made a slight noise.
Not many people took this episode to heart, and the county magistrate's wife saw that everyone was not interested, so she proposed to go to the garden to enjoy the flowers. White. Meng Ting's vicious gaze always followed Bai Jiujiu, and at this time, she saw that there were several ladies between herself and Mrs. County Ling, and she couldn't get forward, so she simply deliberately slowed down and fell behind.
"Mengting, what's wrong with you, why do you look preoccupied."
Hearing this, white. Meng Ting's heart was secretly happy, but her face deliberately frowned, "It's nothing, it's just ...... Hey, forget it. As she spoke, she also glanced vaguely at Bai Jiujiu in front of her.
"What's the matter, is your sister-in-law bullying you? Hmph, the concubine is the concubine, and it can't be on the table. "Mrs. Lin has always been good friends with the Bai family. After Meng Ting's meaningful eyes, she suddenly felt upset for her.
"No, it's ......" White. Meng Ting bit her lip lightly, and a little hesitation flashed in her eyes. After a while, he sighed, "Well, I really don't want you to be deceived. Jiujiu showed up in the embroidery workshop all day long, and she was a little unclear with her foreign man. ”
"What?! No, I don't think Mrs. Xu is such a person. ”
"Why not, I think she's just a restless person, and she used to be grandstanding at the banquet."
Some people who were jealous of Bai Jiujiu's limelight took the opportunity to fall into the ground, while others, although they were half-convinced, also had some opinions about Bai Jiujiu.
The crowd was talking energetically, when suddenly a man came over.
When they looked up, they found that the person was Bai Jiujiu, but the root of the tongue behind his back was heard by the main owner, and they couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
"I didn't know, it turned out that I had an affair with a foreign man, so why didn't I say it." Bai Jiujiu's voice was very calm, but it gave people a sense of oppression inexplicably.
Several ladies looked at each other and said with a dry smile, "Mrs. Xu, we are joking." ”
Some people are at least a little ashamed, and have lowered their heads and stopped talking, but some are thick-skinned, but their faces are full of disdain, as if they were not the ones who spoke ill of people just now.
Bai Jiujiu smiled slightly, "Really." ”
Then, her face sank, the smile on the corner of her mouth disappeared completely, and her sharp eyes glanced at the woman who was laughing the most, "Mrs. Lin, I learned an interesting thing a few days ago, do you want to hear it?" ”
Mrs. Lin is a wealthy businessman in Fenchuan County, with a lot of wealth, and her mother's family also has a brother who is an official in the capital. Meng Ting said the most energetically.
Hearing this, she glanced at Bai Jiujiu and said disdainfully, "What's the matter?" ”
Bai Jiujiu didn't mind her attitude, and casually played with the flower branches on the side, "I heard that Master Lin is raising an outer room outside, extremely young and beautiful, originally I didn't believe it, but when I saw you today, I believed it three points." ”
As soon as the voice fell, the room was silent.
This is clearly said to mean that she is old and decrepit, and her husband is stealing fish outside.
Without waiting for Mrs. Lin to speak, another noble lady who often followed Mrs. Lin said unhappily, "How can you talk like this, there are some rumors outside, how can you take it seriously." ”
"There is no wind and no waves, if this is really fine, why don't others talk about others."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent, as if there was a little truth.
For a while, countless eyes involuntarily turned to Mrs. Lin, Master Lin has always been known for his cleanliness, he doesn't even have a concubine at home, and he is even more single-minded to Mrs. Lin, they are not less envious on weekdays, and Mrs. Lin often shows off in front of them.
In Fenchuan County, those who have a little money or face in the family are proud of taking concubines, and those who don't have two concubines in the family will be laughed at by bad people.
Who would have thought that Master Lin would not take concubines, but he would raise women outside.
Mrs. Lin was shocked and angry, and shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, my husband is very good to me, you don't chew your tongue here." ”
"Whether it's nonsense or not, Mrs. Lin will find out as soon as she checks it." Bai Jiujiu hooked her lips and chuckled, she didn't have a weak heart, that confident appearance made everyone half-convinced, and secretly wondered if it was true?
Mrs. Lin was looked at by everyone with sympathetic eyes, and her whole body trembled with anger.
You must know that raising an outer room is not as good as taking a concubine, and Master Lin obviously didn't take Mrs. Lin in his eyes, which is very different from what she said in front of everyone before.
Originally, some ladies were still envious of Mrs. Lin being able to reconcile with her husband Qin Se, but now they secretly laughed.
