Chapter 269: Pick Three
Pang Yuyan hid her face and ran away, Tanchun and the others asked, Daiyu smiled and shook her head, "The little girl's family is always so thoughtful, and now this world is different from what we were then." When we talked about something at that time, it was really worse than fatal, but now we keep talking about it, and it sounds annoying. ”
Xichun said, "What Sister Lin said is not necessarily true, but Sister Lin has not encountered it before." If you want to talk about the people of us at that time, what is the strange thing I encountered today, Sister Lin? When I came over, I met Sister Xiangyun, saying that Uncle Wei was going to go to Tiewang Mountain this time, she was idle and had nothing to do to go out for a walk, I invited her to come over, she actually said something sourly, who to look at? ”
Yingchun laughed and pointed to Xichun, "Naturally, I told you!" ”
Xichun turned around, "I don't listen, and I'm too lazy to listen." ”
Daiyu laughed, "After so many years, you still don't know her?" What's the point of this, she's as open-mouthed as a child who doesn't grow up, and she's the kind of person who won't look back if the south wall is pierced. ”
Yingchun said, "Speaking of which, Sister Yun is the most pitiful of us. Before Sister Lin returned to Beijing, it was the old lady who loved her, and she lived with Brother Bao in the old lady's blue yarn cupboard for many years. At that time, she was in our house almost all year round. Later, Sister Lin came, and she was afraid that Sister Lin had robbed her of the old lady, so she went against Sister Lin everywhere. ”
Tanchun said, "This is where she can't think of it, she said in our house that it is unpleasant to be under the fence, but Sister Lin is different, Sister Lin is in our house, food and clothing, and even the people around her are her own, can this be compared?" The old lady often didn't want to go, saying that if it weren't for her old man, Sister Lin would be able to be with her father and mother in the south, could it be less painful? ”
Xichun smiled, "The old lady loves her, and even I didn't say that she robbed me of the old lady, so I'm also surnamed Jia, right?" ”
Wu Guizhen and Feng Yunying both laughed, walked over and said, "Okay, you guys are here to enjoy the autumn scenery and drink with people's shortcomings, so that I can hear it!" ”
Daiyu smiled, "Don't talk about it, the girls' boat is coming, so they can't hear it." ”
Feng Yunying asked, "You said you were making a big show today, what are you doing?" I guessed, I didn't dare to say, I was curious and wanted to ask. ”
Daiyu said in a low voice, "Now it's time for Thirteen to choose a concubine, Brother Eaves should have discussed marriage a long time ago, the mother in the palace is very anxious, my mother is also talking every day, I am also forced to do so, if you think there is something good, just tell me, and let me know a few more people, and I don't mean to pick and choose." ”
Wu Guizhen said angrily, "What if it's picking?" Why can't we pick people like us? This is the emperor has not drafted a girl in a big way in recent years, I heard that when the emperor was there, he would choose once every few years, and the concubines of the kings and county kings at that time were also given, this is the choice of three and four! ”
When we arrived at the warm air dock, this was a room near the water, which had already been arranged, and the banquet was held here. At this time, Thirteen and Brother E'er sent the two children over and handed them to Daiyu, and the two were about to go out, Daiyu asked, "Where do you eat?" ”
Thirteen, "Brother is back, in front, call me and Brother Wei to go over to eat, let's go!" ”
Brother Shun got out of Daiyu's arms, ran to pick a chrysanthemum, pulled a bird to the phoenix and broke it, ran over, and was about to hand it to Daiyu, when he heard an "ah" sound, Daiyu looked up and saw that it was the girl of Liu Shilang's family who looked at the flower in Brother Shun'er's hand with infinite regret, it was really a pity that this flower was too precious, and Brother Shun pinched it like this, which is really a pity.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Liu Ruhui was suddenly embarrassed, and quickly stood up and saluted Daiyu, "I lost my temper, please forgive the princess!" ”
Pang Yuyan saw that it was Liu Ruhui, who had always been a girl who didn't quite agree with her, so she couldn't help but sneer, "Who should I be?" It turned out to be Miss Liu, no wonder, with Lord Liu's little money, let alone such a hundred birds and phoenixes, even if you raise two pots of flowers at home, you don't like to eat fertilizer! ”
Liu Ruhui's face was flushed, in front of so many people, she really couldn't refute. Fortunately, the maid magpie in front of her was unforgiving, and said with a smile, "It's really funny, they are all officials of the imperial court, and they all take the same money, and Miss Pang's family is not a noble with permanent property, how can Miss Pang's family be able to afford precious flowers and birds?" ”
Daiyu looked at Pang Yuyan meaningfully, and Pang Yuyan was forced to bow her head and mutter, "Who said that?" Who said I could afford it at home? ”
Daiyu smiled, "Who doesn't know that Liu Shilang is notoriously incorruptible? In a yamen like the Ministry of Industry, he is second only to the court officials, but his family is so poor that even the emperor was moved when he heard it. Such a person is eager for the court. Today, I also took a lot of effort to invite Miss Liu, and I really thank Miss Liu for giving me this face. ”
Liu Ruhui hurriedly saluted, "The princess is so serious, Ruhui can't afford it!" ”
What happened here soon reached Yun Zhen's ears, and Thirteen also heard about it, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother, is Liu Shilang's family really so poor?" ”
Brother Wei said, "I have always respected Lord Liu's character, and I heard that the girls in his family rarely go out because they have no clothes and jewelry all year round." However, Miss Liu's needlework is done well, this time, my sister took a fancy to a screen she embroidered, and bought it for two hundred taels of silver, Miss Liu was grateful to her sister, so she came to the banquet. Who would have thought that he would be so ridiculed by the Pang family girl. ”
Later, when the banquet was dispersed, Daiyu left Liu Ruhui and said, "You wait first, I'll call a car to take you back later." ”
After sending people off, Daiyu called Thirteen, "You take the little girl to help me move two pots of flowers, you must bring the pot of birds and phoenixes, and I will give it to Miss Liu and she will take it back to raise." ”
Liu Ruhui hurriedly said, "How is this good?" ”
Daiyu said, "It's rare for people to meet confidants, and it's the same for flowers, it's rare to meet people who cherish flowers. So, you must bring it, and when you go back, you will raise it, and I will reward it the same in the past. ”
Liu Ruhui was grateful, and Thirteen took this opportunity to take a good look at her, and saw that the thick eyebrows and big eyes looked extraordinarily heroic, and she also lost the squeamishness of the girls she saw on weekdays.
