Chapter 6: Greasy Things

The annual Lantern Festival is approaching, it is a good time to meet beautiful women and meet talents, everyone will wear the most beautiful clothes on that day, and welcome the Lantern Festival with the best appearance.

The City Lord's Mansion set up a banquet on the same day to invite the big families in the city, and the Jiang family was also on the invitation list.

Because the head of the family is away, the eldest young master is far away, and the only people who need to attend are the main mother, the second and third misses.

The three of them went out together to buy the outfits needed for the banquet, create jewelry, and then tailor new clothes.

As soon as Su Ying stepped into the store, the guys in the store surrounded her and said, "Madam, come and see, this is the new fabric in our store, this is finely made, and it is the best to cut new clothes." ”

Su Yingsu touched the satin with her hands, the material is indeed smooth, the style is also generous, the pattern is novel, I think it is good, you can consider it.

"The jewelry in our store is also very good, you see. ”

"Man'er, Mu'er, look at what you like. ”

On the case, there are jasper bracelets, exquisite hollow gold chun, each piece is delicate and gorgeous. "Do you have a favorite between the two young ladies?"

"This, this, and this, I want them. ”

Jiang Yiman wore at least three different bracelets on one hand, and the gold and jade shone with a faint halo in the sunlight.

Su Ying smiled: "Man'er, you have chosen all of these, and you don't leave any for your sister." ”

"These are good-looking, my daughter just wants them. Jiang Yiman pulled Su Ying's arm and said coquettishly.

Jiang Yimu didn't pay attention to Jin Yu, and was opening his mouth to excuse himself.

Su Ying waved her hand and asked the shopkeeper to take out the things, "Take out the set I just saw." ”

Exquisite dotted emerald grass head insect inlaid with pearls and silver hairpins, cloisonne red coral earrings, ivory white Ruyi hairpin, emerald gold and jade ring......

Earrings, hairpins, jade bracelets, necklaces, there is no shortage of the same, all of them are exquisite, and they are not inferior to the jewelry worn by Jiang Yiman.

Su Ying inserted a flower butterfly into Jiang Yimu's bun and asked her to look in the mirror. "It's good-looking, what does Mu'er think?"

"Not bad. Jiang Yimu responded lightly.

"Shopkeeper, I want this set. Su Ying was generous and bought everything she valued.

Su Ying took out the dress that had been prepared for a long time, "Mu'er, this dress was made a few days ago, and I haven't found a chance to show you, now I try it, I don't know if it fits you!"

"Thank you, Mother. Jiang Yimu took it obediently and went to the back room to change clothes.

Jiang Yiman couldn't see it, "Mother, why do you want to give her such a good thing, giving it to her is a tyrannical thing." ”

Su Ying persuaded: "What are you talking about, she is your sister, and she has the same blood as you." ”

Jiang Yiman sneered, his eyes full of disgust, wishing there was no such person. "Whoever wants to be of the same blood as her, the unknown person is not my sister. ”

The voices of the mother and daughter were not loud or small, and they just entered Jiang Yimu's ears, whether they were intentional or unintentional, they would not move their eyelids when they heard too much.

Jiang Yimu knew that his identity was really bad, his biological mother gave birth to him on a snowy day, and his father took his infant self into the house with his mother, which was indeed not right.

I used to be favored for a few years, but when my mother died of illness, my father rarely came to see him, and gradually the girls in the house bullied him openly and secretly.

Although on the surface, the food, clothing, housing and transportation arrangements were proper and there was no mistake, Jiang Yimu did not feel that he was the Jiang family for a moment. They enjoy the filial piety of their mothers and children, and they treat themselves as indifferent to themselves forever.

Everyone got up early to prepare for the Shangyuan Festival. Playing dragon lanterns and lions outside, it is lively and lively, and it is peaceful. Such a beautiful picture is not the best time of the day, only when it is dark and the whole city is lit up......

In the night sky, the round moon sometimes hides behind the clouds, sometimes appears in the sky. The cold moon is particularly lively and lovely because of the red lanterns, and the firelight of the lamps is like dazzling meteors.

Before going to the feast, everyone can also enjoy the scenery along the way. Jiang Yimu simply wore a cinnamon green full-breasted Ruijin skirt, and the soft skirt wrapped Ying Ying's thin waist, outlining a tall and well-proportioned figure.

"Man'er is not well, go and urge her. "I said that I would go to see the lantern festival together, but Jiang Yiman was late in arriving during the agreed period, and Su Ying asked someone to hurry up.

After everyone's long wait, Jiang Yiman was late.

When she walked past Jiang Yimu's side, the fragrance came, and there was a sweet and greasy smell of peach blossom pollen.

Jiang Yiman's face was as ruddy as a peach blossom, and he was really enchanting in his dress, with an apricot red monofilament on the flower's half arm, half covered and half hidden, revealing a long bandeau with maple brocade inside, and a flower-inlaid red treasure silver collar under his neck.

"Mother, do you see if your daughter is beautiful. Jiang Yiman's pair of Danfeng eyes hooked people's souls, revealing the autumn waves of ten thousand styles, and the red and tender Dan lips smiled, and couldn't help but let people come forward to kiss Fangze. It fully reveals the girl's affection.

Su Ying looked at Jiang Yiman dotingly and smiled, "Of course my mother's heart and liver are beautiful, let's go quickly, don't delay the effort to look at the lanterns." ”

By this time, the night had begun, and the streets were crowded with people. It's really "the fire trees and silver flowers make the whole city, and thousands of heads are crowded to enjoy the lanterns." Mo Weiren is called the first scene, the billion-mega star Doucan Dragon Palace. ”

Colorful lanterns hang on the trees on the side of the street, and all kinds of animals look cute and cute.

Guessing lantern riddles is an indispensable part of the Lantern Festival, and the local custom is that if you answer 12 lantern riddles correctly in a row, you will be awarded the lantern king selected this year.

Su Ying saw that Jiang Yiman was quite interested, and encouraged: "Mu'er, Man'er, try it!"

Jiang Yiman has a maid named Xuefu by his side, Bing Xue is smart, very good at guessing riddles, and can solve hundreds of riddles.

The boss reads out the rules and reads out the first puzzle: sometimes it falls on the mountainside, sometimes it hangs on the treetops. Sometimes it's like a round mirror, sometimes it's like a sickle.

Jiang Yiman couldn't think of it, so he rescued Xuefu: "What is the answer?"

This mystery is too simple, Xuefu didn't think about it, and immediately whispered in Jiang Yiman's ear: "Miss, the mystery is the moon." ”

"The moon. Jiang Yiman was categorical and loud.

"That's right, the riddle is the moon, Miss can continue to guess. ”

"Boss, you say. Jiang Yiman was full of confidence.

"Tao Ling is the most pitiful, the mountain path is carefully cultivated, and after the group is cold, the east fence of the palace is alone. ”

"Chrysanthemums. Jiang Yiman reproduces the correct answer of Xuefu.

Jiang Yiman relied on a helper to guess eleven riddles correctly one after another.

The shopkeeper reminded him to accept it when he saw it, "This young lady, you can take the prize home if you give it up now, but if you get it wrong, you will fall short." ”

Jiang Yiman was impatient, "Shopkeeper, you just have to come up with the question." ”

The shopkeeper had already discovered that Jiang Yiman was a little greasy, so he asked him to open a scroll and show the title to everyone.
