The sisters returned to the outer room, and the old lady said with a smile: "Today's hour is almost inseparable, you should also go to Xingning Garden to learn the rules, right?" ”

"Yes." The girls nodded in unison.

Sun said: "Old lady, I will study as usual today, and I will take Sister Yi back to Dingguo Mansion tomorrow morning, and then Mama Zhan will take other girls in Xingning Garden as usual." ”

The old lady smiled and nodded, as if he hadn't heard anything wrong from Sun's words.

Qin Huining, who was staring dryly on the side, finally couldn't help it, pulled Sun's sleeve and said timidly: "Mother, don't you take your daughter?" I also miss my grandfather and grandmother a little. ”

In fact, Sun was originally a little hesitant.

Just now, Sun Yu came to say that the Duchess of Dingguo wanted to see the palm bead that Qin Huaiyuan had just recovered, but she didn't say that she wanted to see her adopted daughter. But after thinking about it, they said that they wanted to see their granddaughter, but they didn't say which one they wanted to meet, so they just pretended to be confused and brought Qin Huining with them.

"Nature is going to take you." Sun gently straightened Qin Huining's sideburns: "Let's go tomorrow morning." ”

Qin Huining took Sun's arm and laughed coquettishly.

The sixth lady on the side said enviously: "Auntie, if you have the opportunity to take your nieces to your house another day, I heard that the garden of Dingguo Mansion is bigger than ours, and the scenery is beautiful." ”

When the second lady heard this, her face was a little ugly. She glared at Miss Six, but Miss Six was not as obedient as usual, but looked at Sun with red eyes on her face.

Sun was fluttering by Miss Six's words, nodded and said, "If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely take you all with me." ”

"Yes, thank you, auntie." Miss Six smiled sweetly.

Seeing this, the old lady didn't think much about it, just treated the children as innocent.

"A family of relatives, it's good to move around more, this time it's Sister Yi who just came back, I think I have something to say when I see my grandfather and grandmother, next time you all go, you all have a chance."

And the girls saluted, yes.

Qin Yining still lived a very fulfilling day. However, Xu is going to Dingguo Mansion tomorrow, but Qin Huining seemed absent-minded when she was studying, and she couldn't remember the etiquette and gesture that Mama Zhan said to Qin Huining several times, and Mama Zhan was too lazy to speak.

Moreover, Qin Yining also found that Qin Huining always looked at herself with more resentful eyes, as if she had a grudge against her.

In the afternoon, I went to the study in the outer courtyard to listen to the master's lecture through the screen, and when I returned to the Sydney Courtyard in the evening, it was already dark.

Qin Yining thought that she was going to see the Duchess of Dingguo tomorrow, but because she didn't know what kind of character the other party was, she was a little apprehensive in her heart. instructed Ruilan to prepare what she would wear tomorrow, and asked Mama Zhan to help her look at it to make sure that there was nothing wrong with the matching, so she stopped.

However, lying on the stepping bed, she still carefully recalled Bao's mother in her mind that day.

It is said that "things gather by like, and people are divided by groups", Bao's mother is a powerful person around the Duchess of Dingguo, and naturally she will have a little bit of the style of the Duchess of Dingguo, and she will be a little assimilated with the master when she speaks and acts.

After thinking carefully about all the possible difficulties and thinking of a countermeasure in his heart, Qin Yining fell asleep completely with peace of mind.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, after asking the old lady to say goodbye, Qin Yining went back to Sydney Courtyard to wash and change clothes.

She chose a wide-sleeved brocade jacket in a pastel plain satin weave with a goose-yellow eight-panel skirt and a scarlet white rabbit fur collar cape on top. The color of the water is bright, so that Qin Yining does not lose the delicacy of a young girl, but also the brightness of a girl, and in terms of clothing and workmanship, she will not lose the pomp and circumstance of everyone's ladies.

As for the head noodles, Qin Yining chose a pair of small cloves and a begonia hairpin in the jasper head face given by the third wife.

Qin Yining's ink hair is green, and the hairpin with a begonia flower head hairpin is matched on the bun of Suiyun, which looks black and shiny, and the hairpin is delicate and precious.

"Mama, I don't need fat powder at my age, right?" Qin Yining looked at the bottles and cans on the dressing table, the fragrance came straight to his nose, and he was a little panicked.

Mama Zhan smiled and combed Qin Yining's broken hair on her sideburns, and said with a smile: "Girl is excellent like this, you are naturally beautiful, young girl's family, you don't need those goose yellow powder, but it's cold outside, you only use a light jasmine balm to even your face, so as not to let your skin be blown by the wind." ”

Qin Yining smiled and nodded: "It's all up to Mama." ”

went to the Dingguo Mansion, and Qin Yining only brought a Ruilan with him. could have brought a grandmother with her, but under Qin Yining's observation, she found that Mama Zhu was a good person who was silent and couldn't take the lead at all, and Mama Zhan was not a subordinate by her side, so she just gave up.

In order to go out, Ruilan also changed into a turquoise jacket today, wearing a magenta fur collar and a long armor, wearing red and green, relying on her young and steady, she also looks very pleasing.

"Girl, the sedan chair has been properly prepared. The eldest lady said that the carriage stopped outside the second gate, and went out through the west gate, so let's go to the second gate to change carriages first. ”

Qin Yining got into the sedan chair, holding the delicate hand warmer in his hand, Ruilan followed the sedan chair, and went out of the second door after a short time.

I changed into a small oil-walled pony car and arrived at the west gate after a while.

There was already a long queue of trains parked in front of the west gate.

Mrs. Xiangye wants to go back to her parents' house, and this time she is still taking her daughter openly, so naturally it is impossible to leave in a carriage like last time. This time, just the carriage in which the master rode prepared two canopy tassel cars, followed by the flat-headed carriage where the old mother sat with a good face, and then two carriages with gifts, followed by servants and maids, guards and others, adding up to dozens of numbers.

Qin Yining stepped on the red lacquered stool on the feet and got into the first carriage, and as soon as he lifted the curtain, he saw that Sun and Qin Huining were already sitting in the main seat, and Mother Jin was sitting on the side of the lower hand, and when she saw Qin Yining coming in, she hurriedly saluted and said hello.

Qin Yining returned the salute and saluted the Sun family.

Sun is wearing a deep and shallow purple dress today, and the silk cloak on the outside is extraordinarily luxurious, and there are almost no traces of time on her delicate face, only her dignified and bright.

Qin Huining's bright dress was beyond Qin Yining's expectations.

Qin Yining sat opposite Mother Jin and began to look at Qin Huining openly.

The turquoise silk cloak, the water blue gown of Yunjin, the color of the whole body is very elegant, but the makeup has been put into it, the willow eyebrows are slightly raised, and the fat powder is just right, especially the red lips like rose petals, echoing with the red jade beads on her earrings, which brightens her whole complexion a little.

is really good-looking in such a dress, beyond her original dignified, showing a bit of the first edge of the show.

Xu was uncomfortable being looked at by Qin Yining, Qin Huining frowned slightly and said, "What is Sister Xiaoxi looking at?" "The red lips are lightly opened, and the teeth are white.

Qin Yining said with a smile: "Miss Huining looks so good in this dress, she can't help but look stupid." ”

"It's not as beautiful as Sister Creek's natural beauty." The acid in the words is hard to hide.

She had tried her best not to lose to Qin Yining in terms of appearance, because she thought that since it was the first time she went to the Dingguo Mansion, Qin Yining would definitely dress up carefully.

Who would have thought that Qin Yining would not apply fat powder and not wear much jewelry?!

The most hateful thing is that the charm and brightness in Qin Yining's appearance are innate, and they can't hide it even if they don't apply fat powder.

Originally, Qin Huining was still a little proud, but sitting opposite Qin Yining, he also felt that his pride was shattered into scum.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Mother Jin coughed lightly, glanced at the Sun family who was half-closed and pretended to sleep, and said with a smile: "Fourth Miss, you go back to the Dingguo Mansion, can the old slave introduce you to the Dingguo Mansion?" "The attitude is very respectful, and the impatience of the first meeting is gone.

Qin Yining knew that these people were used to stepping on highs and lows, so he was not annoyed, but smiled gratefully: "Thank you, Mother Jin, I just wanted to ask you." ”

Mother Jin explained to Qin Yining in a low voice.

Although the Dingguo Mansion is noble, but the poetry and books are handed down, the rules in the family are extremely strict, don't look at the high power, but the children of the family, especially in the three generations under the management and control of the Dingguo Duke and the Duchess of Dingguo, whether it is the family or the side branches, have never bullied men and women.

And what made Qin Yining feel most surprised and admired was that the sisters of the Dingguo Mansion were very united with each other. What kind of intrigue, conspiracy and framing, if you are caught by the Duchess of Dingguo, you will be severely punished.

The Duchess of Dingguo said that if the family cannot be united, how can it resist foreign invasion? A flower looks good from the outside, but if it is rotten in the roots, it will not live long. Mother Kim's tone was honorable.

Qin Yining deeply agreed.

In such a comparison, it seems that the Xiangfu is a bit dirty......

There are only two rooms in Dingguo's family, and the Sun family is the eldest daughter, but in the third line of the clan, the two brothers above are extremely fond of the Sun family.

"The girl's eldest uncle and second uncle are both military generals who fought against the Great Zhou, and they should not be in the mansion now. But both aunts and uncles were there. There are six sisters in the clan, five of the young masters, and the eldest is the uncle who came to the house yesterday......"

Mother Jin talked about the atmosphere of the Dingguo Mansion, and talked about the people of the Dingguo Mansion, and Qin Yining took a few closer looks.

By the time the carriage came to the Dingguo Mansion, Qin Yining had already understood the composition and atmosphere of the Dingguo Mansion.

"Is my aunt back?" Outside the carriage, there was a happy voice from the doorman, and then someone spread it to the house: "Go and tell the old lady that the aunt and the lady are back." ”

The curtain of the car was raised, and the people set up the red lacquered wooden stools for the feet, Mother Jin jumped out of the car first, and served the Sun family to get out of the carriage, Mother Cai and Bitong supported Qin Huining, and Ruilan held Qin Yining.

Go up the steps, enter the side door, and as soon as the group passed the instrument gate, they saw two noble ladies with a group of young girls coming out.

"I said I'll come back later, but your second sister-in-law has to come out early and wait, saying that you can be there soon, and we can't do it now." The older woman grabbed Sun's hand and said affectionately, "Oh, it's so warm in your hands." ”
