Chapter 102: Crowd Plotting (1)
Claustrophobic all his life, Rao is heart has been prepared, and Jin Ran is still tight. Eating fasting and chanting Buddha in the temple every day, accompanied by the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, can only wear green robes and linen shirts in the flowery years...... Jin Ran's heart was a little blocked, but she also understood that all this was caused by Zhang Qi's own crimes, which contributed to such a result.
"Ran'er, it's too late today, you should go back and rest early. Time is gone, so I don't care about anything today, let's wait until tomorrow. When the time comes, we'll counsel with your grandmother. ”
Jin Ran nodded hesitantly: "Okay, mother, you just have a plan in your heart." She wanted to intercede for Zhang Qi, but she couldn't say it anyway.
After all, Zhang Qi himself did something wrong, and Jin Ran would not let the other party go because the other party was his friend, not to mention that this time Zhang Qi hurt Jin Ran's own brother and best friend, Princess Ming'an. Jinran does not have such a sober-minded "kindness" and can forgive others on behalf of the victim.
Li Ying helped Jin Ran to walk back slowly, and she cautiously persuaded Jin Ran: "Miss, don't feel uncomfortable. What Miss Zhang Qi did to Princess Ming'an has nothing to do with you, and you didn't know anything about it before. ”
Jin Ran shook his head silently: "I'm not uncomfortable because of this, I'm because of Zhang Qi herself...... I feel uncomfortable. ”
Li Ying was not inside the room just now, she had been guarding outside, so she was not very clear about Zhang Qi's experience and experience, so she couldn't talk about any sympathy, Li Ying's impression of Zhang Qi now was still to seduce her third young master.
Jin Ran didn't hide it from Li Ying, Li Ying was the big girl next to her, and she had the right to know about this kind of thing, otherwise Li Ying would not be able to do things for Jin Ran in the future. Therefore, Jin Ran slowly told Li Ying what Zhang Qi and Mrs. Zhang said.
Li Ying's mouth opened wide in surprise, and she said in disbelief: "Miss, what's the difference between this and selling your sons and daughters?" But one belongs to the poor family, and the other belongs to the rich family. This Mrs. Zhang family regards Miss Zhang Qi as her daughter. Didn't she treat Miss Zhang Qi like a maid? ”
Li Ying was also torn and dragged by her mother to the Sheng Mansion and sold, so she actually felt a little sympathy for the behavior of the eldest lady of the Zhang family towards Zhang Qi, and the eldest lady of the Zhang family sent Zhang Qi to the palace, and in the future, she would enjoy the benefits brought by her daughter's entry into the palace at home, isn't it just selling her daughter?
Li Ying is also five or six years old, and her mother thinks she is a drag, so she sells her little daughter, and she uses the money from selling her daughter to buy a roast chicken and bring it back to the youngest son of the family. These are still seen by the servants of the Sheng family who bought Li Ying back, so Li Ying is not as disgusted with that Zhang Qi as she was just now, but a little sympathetic.
Li Ying sighed softly: "Miss, you also said that many of these young ladies are pointing to getting married, and the Hou Mansion is such a good family as if they said they would retreat." What is going on in the mind of Mrs. Zhang? ”
Jin Ran snorted coldly: "What do you think?" I'm afraid it's not thinking about the glory and wealth in my head, right? It turned out that he couldn't even take care of his own daughter. ”
After just a few words, Jin Ran returned to her yard, she went to a lot of places today, and there was such a thing at night, she was so tired that she fell asleep in a few moments. Even Li Ying quietly added a quilt to herself.
There was no word for a night, and in a blink of an eye it was the second day.
Jin Ran slept sweetly the day before, but the next day he woke up half an hour later than usual. But because she got up early, it's not too late today.
When Jinran got up, Li Ying hurriedly ran to her and replied: "Miss, get up quickly." This lady and the old lady of the Zhang family are now in the main hall. ”
"Why so early?" Jin Ran was taken aback, this old lady of the Zhang family is old, and she can be regarded as the highest in the mansion now, where can anyone control her? Therefore, the old lady of the Zhang family has always gotten up a lot later than other juniors, and Jin Ran thought that after she had finished washing, her grandmother and her old man would get up.
As soon as Jin Ran heard that the Zhang family and Mrs. Zhang had arrived, he hurriedly urged Li Ying: "Li Ying, hurry, hurry up and help me clean up." She hurriedly pulled a bun, because of the hurry to fall a lot of broken hair, but this does add a bit of freehand chic to Jinran, Li Ying has always paid great attention to Jinran's dress, seeing the unexpected effect of this move did not comb again, she held a pair of gold thin slices inlaid with rubies of tassel small clips, while to Jinran's head hairpin while persuading: "Miss, don't worry, this old lady of the Zhang family can't speak rashly, in the morning, all the brothers and sisters are gathered together for breakfast, The old lady would not say such a thing to the lady in front of the juniors. ”
Li Ying is right, this old lady of the Zhang family attaches the most importance to the face of the family, and she also likes the red tape of those families the most on weekdays, she arrived so early today just to show everyone in the Sheng family that she attaches great importance to this matter, and it is absolutely impossible for her to discuss this matter at the breakfast table where everyone gathers.
Jin Ran nodded again and again when she heard Li Ying's words: "Li Ying, you are right, my grandmother has shown her side of protecting her shortcomings in Zhang Zi's incident before, and it is her favorite Qi who has an accident today, and my grandmother still doesn't know how to mess around." Forget Li Ying, let's all be slow, I don't want to face this kind of thing early in the morning. ”
Jin Ran sighed, she said helplessly: "I guess my grandmother got up so early and my second aunt was there to play right and wrong, she has always been reluctant to see the Sheng family and my uncle's family, and now Zhang Qi of the Zhang family's big house is doing this kind of thing to my brother, she doesn't know how proud she is behind her back." ”
Jin Ran is confident that he will solve the affairs of the Zhang family, but the premise of solving it well is that there is no-stirring stick in the middle to stir things up. No, as soon as the second lady of the Zhang family came out, the old lady of the Zhang family came to kill it menacingly early in the morning, and her mother didn't know how to have a headache when the time came, on the one hand, the Zhang family was the Zhang family's maiden family, and on the other hand, it was the son of Zhang's own in-law who was calculated, and it can be said that the palms and backs of the hands were full of meat.
Coupled with the old lady of the Zhang family, this matter is really difficult to do, and the eternal companion green lantern ancient Buddha in Zhang's mouth doesn't know if it can be done.
Jin Ran simply sent a little girl to talk to her mother, bluntly saying that she slept too late yesterday and didn't have the energy to go to her mother's place to eat, so that they didn't have to wait for themselves, and it was not too late to eat breakfast first.
Now the time is free, Jin Ran simply began to slowly and leisurely freshen up, even the Poria cocos cream that is not used much in the vegetarian day has been applied, Jin Ran looked at herself in the mirror and was a little dissatisfied, she muttered to herself: "Hey, my complexion is too ruddy." No matter how you look at it, you don't want to look like you haven't slept well. ”
Jin Ran looked at it and simply took out a bowl of flour fat from the makeup box, this fat is one of the best-selling things in Jinran's rouge gouache shop, which is made of pearl powder, ginseng, barley ground powder and viscous honey blended. The color of Jinran's jar is snow-white, and it is much whiter than Jinran's complexion, you must know that Jinran is fair-skinned among the nobles in Kyoto.
Jin Ran had always thought that this jar of flour fat was too white to apply before, but today is just right. She took a small spoon and gently scooped out a little bit and rubbed it in the palm of her hand, and gently blended her two hands together, applying it to the ruddy area. A lot of pearl powder, angelica and other substances were added to this facial fat, so the covering effect was very good, and Jin Ran applied his lips vigorously, so that the red lips that were originally as bright as rouge were also dyed a little pale before stopping.
She tugged at the shawl on her body, untied the knot at her neckline slightly, and tried to create a look of being overwhelmed before she sat down and had breakfast.
What didn't match her soft exterior was Jinran's amount of food, and she drank slowly three bowls of porridge and a few scallion oil golden silk rolls with those plates of red oil side dishes before going out.
Jin Ran was dissatisfied, but she got up late, and when she went out, she was eating and pretending, which took a long time. Therefore, when Jin Ran arrived at Zhang's main room, everyone had been waiting for a long time.
The Zhang family is naturally looking forward to the later their daughter comes, and the other ladies of the Zhang family, of course, except for the second lady of the Zhang family, are all looking forward to Jinran arriving earlier and quickly fishing Zhang Qi out.
Mrs. Zhang originally thought that no matter what kind of reaction Zhang Qi had, the name of this Zhang Qi draft would be reported, and she would run for the election no matter what, plus Zhang Qi's appearance was a first-class standout, and the chance of being selected was great. As for the Zhang family, didn't something happen to Sheng Jinyi and his daughter, it didn't matter if the old lady came to pressure the Zhang family and asked them to give up the responsibility of their daughter.
Mrs. Zhang's calculation is not bad, but she sent someone to inquire yesterday, and the person who is happy with Sheng Jinyi turned out to be Princess Ming'an, and Sheng Jinyi was drugged yesterday and went to the small courtyard where Princess Ming'an stayed.
In this way, no matter how much the Zhang family forgives, as long as Princess Ming'an, who is favored by the emperor, whispers in her father's ear, her Qi'er will never be selected.
Therefore, the main purpose of this Mrs. Zhang's main house is Jinran. As everyone knows, the relationship between the Lord of Jinrui and Princess Ming'an is very good, although Zhang Qi made a big mistake, but it is not without hope of turning around to let Jinran say a few words.
Therefore, the eldest lady of the Zhang family got up early, and rushed to the main house of the Zhang family as soon as she had breakfast.
But to the surprise of the eldest lady of the Zhang family, Sheng Jinran did not go to the main room of the Zhang family to have breakfast today. As for Princess Ming'an, who she was thinking about, she went back to the palace early in the morning, and she didn't know what to do.
