Chapter 3: Losing face

Seeing that Bai Chuxia didn't have any vision, Xu Shi frowned and asked in a low voice, "Are you really looking at the soup she drank?" ”

"Yes Mother, I watched her drink it with my own eyes, and there was not a drop left." Bai Wanxia was a little anxious, and she couldn't wait to step forward and scratch Bai Chuxia's face.

"Don't worry, it's my mother."

After appeasing Bai Wanxia, Xu stepped forward to hold Bai Chuxia's hand, with a smile on his face, "Didn't my mother prepare the clothes for you to wear today?" Today are all powerful people, you should wear formal clothes, although your clothes today are also good-looking, but there are always some discordant rules. ”

Glancing at Xu's clenched hand, a coldness flashed in Bai Chuxia's eyes, and he asked softly, "Mother is talking about the rose-colored body?" ”

"Exactly." Xu nodded.

"The rose-colored shirt is very good-looking, my daughter likes it very much, especially the plum blossoms on it, my daughter also likes it very much, but ......"

After a pause, Bai Chuxia frowned slightly, looked melancholy, and then said, "My daughter thought that just a year after her grandmother's death, according to custom, her daughter should keep filial piety for three years, so her daughter put away that set of clothes, and wanted to wait for her grandmother's filial piety period to pass, and then her daughter would wear it." ”

As soon as these words came out, the voices of small praise came from all around, "The eldest lady is really filial, I didn't expect that on such an important occasion as the ceremony, the eldest lady still remembered that Mrs. Bai kept filial piety, which is really rare!" ”

"Yes, yes!"

"Well, you're doing the right thing." Xu's face was embarrassed, but it was only for a moment.

"Niangyuan also thought of this, but I felt that your etiquette was very important, so I prepared that dress for you, I didn't expect you to be more thoughtful than my mother."

Originally, she wanted Bai Chuxia to leave an impression of not knowing the number of manners to outsiders, but she didn't expect her to say that, in fact, she had long forgotten about the old lady's filial piety, and she was really blind to give this cheap girl a chance to behave.

It's just that usually this cheap girl never talks back.,What's wrong today.,I always feel that this cheap girl is a little different from usual.。

"It's good that my mother doesn't blame."

Looking at Xu's expression of swallowing flies, Bai Chuxia sneered in his heart, extremely happy.

Then he turned around as if he had just seen Bai Wanxia, and stepped forward and said, "Is my sister's shirt made in Jinyi Pavilion?" It's gorgeous. ”

Stretched out his hand and touched the golden embroidery thread on Bai Wanxia's shirt, and praised, "This gold thread and this red really complement each other, and only Jinyi Pavilion can embroider such gorgeous clothes." ”

One or two sets of gold, although the first sentence is a question, but the latter sentence is extremely positive, there is no need for Bai Wanxia to say anything, after hearing Bai Chuxia's words, everyone is sure that Bai Wanxia's clothes must be made in Jinyi Pavilion.

Jinyi Pavilion is the largest cloth village in the capital, the clothes inside are tailor-made, the fabrics are high-quality silk brocade, and even the clothes and fabrics worn by the ladies in the palace are from the Jinyi Pavilion.

These two young ladies wore such gorgeous clothes that cost so much money at the eldest lady's ceremony, and they were so gorgeous and gorgeous, showing that they were like comparing the eldest lady, it was really Sima Zhao's heart, and passers-by knew it!

And Xu originally wanted Bai Chuxia to give people the impression that he didn't know how to be polite, but he didn't expect her to return it to Bai Wanxia in a sentence or two.

I don't know the number of etiquette, I don't keep the filial piety period, I don't respect the old lady, I compete with my sister, and at the same time, I feel that Xu's partiality is obviously Bai Chuxia's etiquette, and what is prepared for Bai Chuxia is a rose-colored shirt, but what is prepared for Bai Wanxia is a red shirt.

Listening to Bai Chuxia's words just now, I think that her colored shirt was not made in Jinyi Pavilion! Otherwise, how could he ask Bai Wanxia like that!

And Bai Chuxia is the protagonist today, the protagonist's clothes are embroidered with plum blossoms, with rose red as the base, while Bai Wanxia's clothes are golden and gorgeous lines, with bright red as the base.

In comparison, the goodwill left by Xu and Bai Wanxia to outsiders was immediately lost.

In fact, this really wronged the Xu family, the clothes she prepared for Bai Wanxia were pink clothes, although they were also gorgeous, but they were not as gorgeous as Bai Chuxia's color.

But Xu can't say this, if he says it, then it will be even more confirmed that Bai Wanxia and Sister Yan are famous, and now outsiders think that Bai Wanxia's clothes were prepared by Xu's people, if they know that Bai Wanxia prepared it herself, the scolding will be even worse.

Looking at the strange eyes around her, Bai Wanxia felt even more hatred in her heart, blaming this slut, otherwise how could she be so ugly, and I don't know what method this slut used, but there were no black spots on her face, she was really angry.

Thinking about turning around and turning his head to look at Xuanyuan Ming, he saw Xuanyuan Ming's eyes looking directly at Bai Chuxia, and the hatred in his heart was even stronger, and there was also a trace of fear and panic, afraid that Xuanyuan Ming would fall in love with her because of Bai Chuxia's appearance.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and change your clothes, what do you look like?"

Bai Junxiong felt that his face was lost by Bai Wanxia and Xu's family, and he usually likes to fight, and he doesn't look at what day it is.

Looking at Bai Chuxia in front of him, Xuanyuan Ming took a step forward and said, "Chu Xia, do you still recognize me?" ”

On weekdays, I often hear rumors about Bai Chuxia from the outside world, but she doesn't leave the house because she looks too ugly, and at the same time, Bai Wanxia often alludes to Bai Chuxia's unbearable appearance in front of him.

Although he didn't have any expectations for Bai Chuxia at first, anyway, he was going to marry the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhang Xunfu's granddaughter, and she looked like nothing else for him, but if she was so beautiful, he was a little excited in his heart compared to her ugly appearance.

"See Prince Ming, Prince Lang, Daddy."

did not show how close she was to Xuanyuan Ming, Bai Wanxia saluted in turn.

For Xuanyuan Ming, she couldn't wait to step forward and solve him immediately, as well as Bai Wanxia, but she couldn't let them die so easily, she wanted to let them lose everything, let them enjoy the pain of having nothing, let Xuanyuan Ming enjoy the pain of failure, and let Bai Wanxia be loved but couldn't be loved.

Doesn't Bai Wanxia care about her reputation the most! Do you care most about her title of the first beauty in Eastern Qin! She's going to make her lose all the things she cares about.

Feeling that Bai Chuxia did not have any preferential treatment for himself, nor did he give him another look, and even saw some hatred in Bai Chuxia's eyes, Xuanyuan Ming was a little hesitant in his heart.

What's going on? Didn't she say that she embroidered handkerchiefs and purses in the boudoir every day in order to marry him? Why doesn't it look like what Bai Wanxia said?

"Well, now that you're fully staffed, let's get started!" Seeing that Bai Chuxia's temperament is so outstanding, and at the same time he is so attentive to her grandmother, Bai Junxiong is very satisfied.

He rarely sees this daughter, and he only sees him a few times a year, Xu said that she doesn't like to go out, and he rarely goes to her courtyard, looking at today, there are some differences compared with usual, but Bai Junxiong didn't think about it so much, he just thought that Xu gave her some etiquette yesterday.

Back in the room, Bai Wanxia angrily slammed the teacup on the table, as well as the porcelain ornaments in the house, this damn slut, she was so embarrassed today, I will never let her go.

The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, seeing that there was nothing in front of me that could be broken, I grabbed Xiao Cui and knelt on the ground trembling, stepped forward and started work left and right and slapped Xiao Cui in the face, treating Xiao Cui as Bai Chuxia, while beating and scolding.

"You damn slut, you make you so crazy today, you don't have spots on your face, you frame me like this today, you blame you slut, make me so embarrassed today......"

"Woo woo, I'm sorry Miss... Miss, I'm sorry..."

Xiao Cui just cried and knelt for Bai Wanxia to beat, not daring to run or move, she had never seen Bai Wanxia so angry, Miss had always been gentle and had never hit her......

Performances

Today's people are the families of some colleagues, and after they sit down in turn, the maids come up with various delicacies, and then there is a performance.

For performance, Bai Chuxia thought of the previous life, Xu had never taught her any singing and dancing, and she couldn't understand anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, claiming that she was a woman who was not talented and virtuous, but she had put all her thoughts into Bai Wanxia.

It was in this performance that she was poisoned by the peach blossom soup in her previous life, and her talent that she couldn't handle it made her lose face.

So since then, everyone has said that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is extremely ugly, with huge black spots almost all over her face, and she has no talent, which has pushed her into the cusp of this leisurely public. This also confirms that she didn't go out for the first fourteen years because of her ugly appearance.

Because of this, after she and Xuanyuan Ming got married, she studied hard, and she learned all the talents that she had not learned in the first fourteen years.

In this life, she will never follow the path of her previous life.

The meals were all set, and Bai Junxiong said to Bai Chuxia: "Today is your ceremony, Chu Xia, you will be the first to perform, as the beginning of this banquet!" ”

"Okay, father," Bai Chuxia got up, bowed to Bai Junxiong, and said lightly, "Father, my daughter has something to ask for, I don't know if my father can agree." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Bai Junxiong smiled at Bai Chuxia and said that he was very satisfied with what she did today.

"Before the grandmother's filial piety period has passed, the daughter has the courage to beg her father not to have a sound of courtesy and joy at this banquet." Bai Chuxia said softly, his face was calm and not panicked at all, just like a beautiful girl.

"It's rare that you have this filial piety, yes." Bai Junxiong agreed, I don't know why his eldest daughter is today, she seems to be so polite and filial, which is far from the past.

Seeing that Bai Chuxia said that there should be no sound of etiquette and music at the banquet, Xu's brows furrowed slightly, afraid that she would not perform singing and dancing, so he couldn't help but speak: "If Mother knew that Chu Xia was so filial, she would be very happy to come to Quanxia to know." ”

"But, after all, today is Chu Xia's big day, if my mother knows that because of her, Chu Xia has passed this coming-of-age ceremony so casually, I'm afraid my mother will not be at ease."

Hearing Xu say this, Bai Junxiong pondered, "Your mother is right. ”

And Bai Chuxia pursed her lips and sneered, she knew that the Xu family would not let go of the opportunity that could make her lose face so easily.

Said softly, "The father, grandmother usually loves the sound of the piano and loves the mountains and rivers, so the daughter will make a song of the mountains and rivers and dedicate it to her grandmother, hoping that her grandmother can hear it under the nine springs." ”

"Okay." Bai Junxiong nodded, very satisfied with Bai Chuxia's words.

The people in the hall saw that Bai Chuxia was so filial, and he had an attitude of retreating into advance, and the people around him praised him even more.

This prime minister's eldest lady didn't expect to be such a wonderful person, not only is she so good-looking, but she also knows how to be polite and filial, and Wang Ye Ming is really blessed! I think this marriage should not be far away.
