Autumn hasn't spoken yet. 【Latest chapter reading. But Mrs. Zhu pursed her lips disdainfully. "I haven't worn clothes of this color since I was ten years old."

"You didn't wear it because you're old. If you put it on, you will become a demon. Autumn color, the sarcastic person, didn't say anything. was intercepted.

It was a lady who had followed Qing Niang from the garden gate to speak. She was about thirty years old. Wearing an aqua blue floor-length dress. The cover is embroidered with the same color. The corners of the eyes are slightly raised. The lower jaw is slightly pointed. Slightly dark complexion. It's very powerful to look at.

It was followed by two ladies in fancy clothes. A stocky figure with high buns. Dressed in a stone blue floral costume. One is thinner. Wearing an orange gauze dress. Jacket lake blue dark coat.

Mrs. Zhu was very angry when she was said to be like this. When I turned around, I was even more angry when I saw someone coming. couldn't help laughing: "Who am I?" It turned out to be Mrs. May. I heard that your family Mei brought you a sister back a few days ago. I guess you can't sleep again. Take a look. The circles under my eyes are all dark. ”

"You." Mrs. May seemed to have been poked in the sore foot. I just wanted to go up and reason with Mrs. Zhu. was stopped by Qing Niang, who arrived later.

"Alright. Don't laugh at yourself. Come. Get to know each other. This is the wife of the new Governor of the Division, Ai-sama. Qing Niang pointed to the autumn colors and introduced it to everyone. Then he pointed to Mrs. Mei and said to Qiu Se: "She is the lady who has experienced Si Mei's experience." The lady in the stone blue dress was the lady of Nansi Prison. The other is the wife of the Terruma Chen. ”

"Hello ladies." Autumn rose and saluted the crowd first.

Fortunately. These people are not as cold as Mrs. Zhu. All said a few words to the autumn colors.

Then. Qing Niang spoke again: "Ladies. The prefect's wife was unwell. Mrs. Tong Ju has a visitor. So today's cherry blossom viewing is just a few of us. Let's take a break. In a moment, we will go for a walk in the osmanthus forest. ”

Mrs. Zhu first smiled and agreed: "I have long heard that there are a few osmanthus plants in this mansion. There has been no special person to take care of it before. Mrs. Ma is here. They can be regarded as meeting the master. ”

Qing Niang laughed. "What is clear and does not know the master. I just like that. And I raised two more people who know flowers. I took care of it. See the flowers bloom well. I just wanted to invite you to play. It can be regarded as a pick-up for Mrs. Ai. "Say hello to the autumn colors on the side." Qiu Niang. You're welcome. These ladies are very easy to get along with. ”

"Okay." Autumn Colors smiled and nodded. But he still didn't say much. sat on the side and watched Qing Niang talk to Mrs. Zhu. A few of the other ladies would occasionally chime in a sentence or two. It's that Du Niangzi. I don't talk when I sit next to me. There was only a slight smile on his face.

Rested for a while. The group went to the osmanthus forest. The so-called osmanthus forest is just a dozen or so laurel trees planted in a corner of the garden. It was August. The green of the towering laurel trees is impressive. Among the layers of green leaves, small beige flowers bloom one after another. Dance in the wind. There is also a hint of sweetness in the fragrance of the flowers sent.

Mrs. Chen, who had been silent, suddenly took a deep breath. sighed: "Now I am in this osmanthus forest." Only then did I feel the realm of 'heavenly fragrance floating outside'. ”

"Mrs. Chen deserves to be a talented woman. It's really an export. Qing Niang smiled and praised. I asked the kitchen to make osmanthus pastries. After a while, everyone will take some with them when they leave. ”

Mrs. May reached out and tore off a flower. Squinted at Mrs. Chen. "So. This poem, the words, the occasional talk, it's just that. If you keep talking about it, how can you keep running a family? You can't arrange for the steward to do the work and read poetry. ”

Mrs. Chen's face froze. Barely laughed twice. No more talking.

"If you want me to say you're jealous. Don't talk about making poetry. I don't even know a single big word. If it weren't for the marriage contract. You can marry Mistress Mei. It's still so dark. It's no wonder that Mistress Mei doesn't like you. "Mrs. Zhu is fat. While panting, he walked with the girl ring beside him.

Mrs. May did not budge. sneered: "I can't read a word is better than some people fiddling with calculations all day long." As an official dependent, he was in the company of a businesswoman who was full of copper stench all day long. It's a shame. ”

"Hmph. I'm just collecting taxes and money on behalf of my lord. What does it mean to be in the company of a merchant woman? I think you're jealous. I've heard that you can't afford to raise too many people in your family. and he will sell the two concubines who will not bear children. I also got acquainted with you. Do you want me to lend you some money first? Mrs. Zhu said with a smile.

"You don't talk nonsense. Who is going to sell concubines. Mrs. May's eyes froze. It became a pair of triangular eyes.

"Isn't it. I've heard that Dr. Mei beat you up because of this. ”

"You ......"

Qing Niang frowned slightly. Hurriedly stopped the two. "Alright, alright. Stop arguing. There is a stone table in front of it. I've asked Yahuan to prepare pastries and tea. Let's go sit down for a while. ”

The host spoke. The two people who didn't like each other also stopped talking. With everyone walking towards the stone table in the osmanthus forest.

Autumn colors are left behind. Take a long breath. Although these ladies are not as vulgar as Mrs. Ding's speech. Expose each other's shortcomings, but show no mercy.

"Mrs. Ai." Du Niangzi walked up from behind. Slightly two steps behind the autumn color, he asked with a smile. "Can I ask you one thing?"

"What's the matter?" Autumn is so curious that Du Niangzi, who has not spoken much, will have something to ask herself.

"That's what I just asked. Where did you buy this dress? "Du Niangzi seems to be very curious about this." Tell the truth. My family is in the garment business. You've never seen this style before. So ......"

Autumn smiled at the color of the autumn. "It's normal that you haven't seen it. I changed this dress myself. It was originally a water-pink tunic skirt. But when I got pregnant, I couldn't wear it. There's no time to do something new. I had to change it. ”

Du Niangzi's eyes widened. "Mrs. Ai is happy. Congratulations. And you're so skillful. This dress is chic. That blue shawl goes well with it. She praised from the bottom of her heart.

"Mrs. Ai. You go faster. Don't walk with the copper-smelling merchants. "Autumn colors haven't had time to speak. Mrs. May's sharp words came from the front.

Autumn colors are stiff. When he looked up, several ladies were waiting for him in front. smiled apologetically at Du Niangzi.

Du Niangzi is also interesting. Busy means he doesn't care. "Mrs. Ai, go first. I can't go fast. Just follow behind. ”

"Then I'll go first." Autumn said hello and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize. "Ladies, you've been waiting for a long time."

"It's not going to be a long wait. It's just that I can't get used to seeing you lose your value. We've been implicated. Mrs. May's mouth made people frown.

Autumn colors are in contact with everyone for the first time, and I don't know what kind of temperament everyone is. It's not easy to talk either. Only laughing and laughing.

Mrs. Zhu then asked, "I heard that Mrs. Ai also worked as a hawker before she got married. Are you talking about business with Mrs. Du? ”

Qiu Se was surprised that Mrs. Zhu knew about her past. Could it be that he and Ai Laohu are already important to the point that others are secretly investigating? When she asked, he explained. "It was Du Niangzi who asked me where I bought the clothes on my body."

"Your garment is not a robe or a tunic skirt. It's really special. Where did Qiu Niang get it? Qing Niang asked.

"I did it myself. I can't wear the skirt with a corset waist when I'm pregnant with a child. Autumn colors explained again.

A hint of envy flashed in Qing Niang's eyes. glanced at the autumn belly and smiled: "Ah." Qiu Niang is pregnant. Take a few quick steps to take a break. If you tell me, you'll be told to go to your guest room and rest. ”

"It's fine. It's not too tiring just to walk. Autumn smiled absently.

Mrs. May glanced at her belly, which was completely shrouded in autumn colors under the folds of her skirt. Said: "Now that you have a body, you should worry less about it." Leave everything to the concubine. It's better to have a son. Your concubines are not useful. Don't use it and I'll send you one. ”

"Ahh Autumn Color's heart flickered for a moment. Could it be that this is the so-called giving concubines and concubines between superiors and subordinates between colleagues? It is said that this situation cannot be refused. To do otherwise is to offend people. What to do. Do you really have to come down?

It's weird. Why should she wronged herself. And Ai Laohu also said that he doesn't need to flatter others. He refused directly. "No need. My father-in-law doesn't accept concubines......"

Qing Niang smiled on the side and said, "Qiu Niang's family affairs don't have to worry. I've already arranged for someone to help me do it. ”

Mrs. May's face stiffened slightly. Then he laughed casually. "In that case, forget it." After speaking, he stepped forward to talk to Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Nan.

"Qiu Niang doesn't have to think about it. You just have to listen to what the ladies say. Don't just answer casually. After all, their husband's grade is one level higher than that of Lord Ai. If you say the wrong thing. It's likely that you'll be in trouble. If you really can't handle it. Just come to me. Qing Niang whispered to Autumn Color.

"I see. Thank you, Qingniang. ”

Qing Niang pointed ahead. "Come on. Go sit there for a while. I'll teach you how to play mahjong after a while. ”

Front. In the middle surrounded by a few laurel trees. A bluestone-paved path leads to a clearing. In the middle of the bluestone floor is a stone table. There are four stone benches on all sides. There are also two wooden spring stools.

"It's a nice place. The nose tip is fragrant. There's a breeze in your ears. There are also flower branches on the head to shade the sun. It's a great place to pass the time. Mrs. Chen closed her eyes slightly. Take a deep breath. A dreamy smile appeared on the thin face.

Mrs. Zhu sat on a stone bench. "Some sit, you don't sit. Sour all day long. ”

"My father-in-law said. A place like this is the best place to bury a corpse. Especially under the roots. The chubby Mrs. Nan also sat down.

Mrs. May frowned at her. "I said, Mrs. Nan, can you please stop saying such scary things."

Qing Niang was also a little annoyed that these people smashed their own yards intentionally or unintentionally. He said, "Yes." Qiu Niang is still pregnant with a child. Don't scare the baby in someone's belly. ”
