Chapter 97: Why Are Flowers So Red (3)
"You are so unreasonable, obviously I saw this pot of pearl clothes first, there are a lot of huā in this warm room, why do you want to oppose me?!"
"How do you prove that you saw it first? Obviously, I was about to take it off for my girl, and you rushed out and grabbed it. ”
Zhou Danniang pushed the door into the conservatory, and Qingdai and others followed.
As soon as I entered the door, I walked around the huā path to the west, and after passing through a rattan curtain, I saw two women dressed as maids ten steps away, standing in front of a pot of peonies.
There is only one open flower on the peony branch, the ctenophora is not big, but it is round and firm, the body is graceful, the crimson sè huā petals are overlapped, the sè between the petals is shallow and deep, the whole huā is like a colorful Zhu Dan that turns sè, floating and condensed, and the end is the best product.
Zhou Danniang's face is not very good-looking, "What happened here?" ”
The two maids didn't dare to make another time, and hurriedly walked to Zhou Danniang's side and saluted, "Mrs. Shizi." ”
When Mama Gui, who was serving in the conservatory next to her, saw that the master was coming, she greeted her in a cold sweat, "Madam, four girls came from the front and back feet just now, saying that you have swam here and found that the huā here is good to come in and take a look." The princess specially instructed her to enjoy the spring hairpin today, and if anyone came here, she would not be stopped, and the slaves and maids would let the girls in. Our greenhouse is big, and the girls went to the west to enjoy the huā, and these two maids looked for the huā for the master, and at the same time took a fancy to this product of Zhu Yi, so they had a dispute.
Zhou Danniang took a look at it and said in surprise: "Bai Shao, your girl is also here?" ”
The maid who was called Bai Shao, Qing Dai and others all knew that she was Ji Chun's personal maid, and what Zhou Danniang asked was naturally Ji Chun.
Seeing that Zhou Danniang was coming, Bai Shao seemed to have found a backer, glanced down at the maid who was arguing with her next to her, and replied with a smile on her back: "Mrs. Hui's words, our girl is with Miss Friday." ”
When Zhou Danniang heard this, she frowned and muttered: "Hey! Cui Niang, why did this girl come here and not say hello to me in advance? As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at the maid wearing a lotus lotus shirt next to him, "Which house are you from?" ”
The maid listened to Bai Shao's answer, but did not express surprise, led slightly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Mrs. Hui Shizi, the slave is Wei Zi, who is serving by Princess Ning's side, and she was ordered by the princess to accompany the second girl of the Zhao family to choose huā just now." ”
Zhou Danniang's face sank a little, but she didn't expect this to be Zhao Yuhua's maid.
Zhao Yuhua and Zhou Danniang, a pair of double jiāo in the capital, competed with each other before they got married, and they had to compete for one or two every time they competed, and when they were married in the palace, they were married at the same time, one married Li Jie, the king of Ning, and the other married Li Duan, the son of the king of Qi.
Besides, the husbands of these two people, in terms of status, Li Tuan will definitely inherit the throne of Qi in the future, but he is on an equal footing with Li Jie, but now he is still a son. In terms of character, Li Jiegui is the younger brother of today's saint, and his literary style is not necessarily very outstanding, but he is proficient in music and rhythm, and he also has a bit of talent. This comparison is immediate. Zhou Danniang liked Yu Zidu, but she was pointed out to Li Block, a prodigal son, who was a big step ahead of Zhao Yuhua's Li Jie, and compared with the two, the competitive Zhou Danniang was naturally even more unlikely to have a good impression of Zhao Yuhua.
The grievances between the two are well known.
As soon as she heard that this maid was Zhao Yuhua's personal shì maid, Qingwei rolled her eyes, looked at Qingdai, opened her mouth and was about to speak, but was stopped by Qingdai's look, Qingdai stretched out her finger and put it beside Chún, lightly "shh
"Since it is from Ning Wangfu, it should have the appearance of a palace, and there is no conflict with other maids. Although this product of Zhuyi is rare, it is not a rare variety in the world. Zhou Danniang deliberately helped Bai Shao to speak, embarrassing Zhao Yuhua's maid.
That Yao Huang did not show the slightest timidity because of Zhou Danniang's reproach, "The slave maid did not intend to conflict with this white peony girl, everything is particular about the first come, first come, first come, this product Zhu Yi is indeed the slave maid saw it first, and was about to pick her before she suddenly appeared." ”
"Oh, Mama Gui, who arrived first?"
Zhou Danniang looked at the housekeeper Mama. Mama Gui saw that there was the Qi Wangfu on one side and her own prince on the other, and said with a smile: "Madame forgive the sin, the old slave only cared about sending people to follow the girls, and didn't pay attention to the situation at this end. ”
Old slippery head! Zhou Danniang scolded secretly, thinking that Mama Gui was the princess's person, so it was not good to reprimand her face, so she had to say: "Bai Shao, did you see it first or Yao Huang saw it first?" ”
Bai Shaoyuan didn't know that Yao Huang was from the Qi Palace, but she didn't take it to heart because she was Zhao Yu's maid, and after knowing her identity and origin, she couldn't help but be a little afraid, at this time, listening to Zhou Danniang's questioning tone, she immediately knew the attitude of the master's family, and swore that "it should be the slave maid who saw it first, after all, it was the huā head that the slave maid touched first, if she hadn't blocked it, the slave maid would have taken it off." ”
"Then do you know what the name of this huā is in addition to the name of Yipin Zhuyi?
Where is it produced? …
Bai Shao was stunned, how did she know this, but her own girl confessed to her to look at this Yao Huang, and she was going to grab what she picked in front of her head.
Yao Huang glanced at Bai Peony disdainfully, "Since you don't know the origin and name of this huā, you must not be a person who understands peonies, why do you choose to choose Huā?" ”
Bai Shao hesitated for a moment, and said strongly: "What if you don't know the name and origin of huā, why don't you choose huā to see huāsèhuā shape?" Madame, do you say yes? ”
Zhou Danniang nodded: "Bai Shao's words also make some sense. ”
Yao Huang retorted: "Even if there is some truth in this, a person who doesn't understand peonies and only looks at the huāsèhuā shape, why doesn't he choose the cinnabar red over there, and he has to choose this one-grade vermilion clothes that are not as good as the crown?" ”
Following Yao Huang's point, a red sè peony by the window, the sun shines on the huā flower, its sè is like scarlet blood, bewitching and dazzling, more gorgeous than a product of zhuyi, sè ze.
Yao Huang said again: "Please forgive the slave maid for taking the liberty of saying a word, this product of Zhu Yi is also known as Duocui." Although it is not an extinct and rare variety, it is not the best, but because it looks like a flowing pill, the gods are moving and beyond the reach of the sè peonies, and it is also the best choice in this warm room. First, the slave maid was ordered to choose huā for the second girl of the Zhao family, and naturally did her best, and again, Princess Qi could make the girl hairpin such a precious huā, which shows the princess's hospitable, and the slave maid let go of the courage to choose this plant. ”
Zhou Danniang glanced at Bai Shao coldly, and Bai Shao lowered her head and had nothing to say.
Something that is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, this product of Zhu Yi, no one can take it, and Zhao Yuzhi can't take it... Zhou Danniang thought to herself for a moment, and said with a smile: "What a sharp-toothed girl, she is worthy of being trained by Sister Zhao." ”
Yao Huang Fu thanked him, "Mrs. Cheng Méng complimented." Zhou Danniang smiled and asked: "Since you know huā, you should know that there is a better one in this greenhouse, why do you choose this one?" ”
Yao Huang's eyes flashed, "Although the slave and maid view this huā is not as expensive as Tianxiang Yipin, it is better than the magnificence, beautiful and smart, and the temperament of Zhao Er girl is very consistent, so I chose this huā." ”
"Oh, is it? I have a suggestion, I don't know if I can say it? ”
"Madame, please."
Zhou Danniang smiled and said: "You don't have to be nervous, I'm just talking, it's up to you whether you listen or not." I think that the jealousy jiāo red is good, the Zhu room is embedded in the branches, gorgeous as a ribbon cut, stacked like a broken xia, its sè can crown the huā product, and it is named after a hundred huā jealousy, which is more suitable for the natural beauty of the jade girl. ”
Qing Dai originally knew a little about peonies, when she was in Wuzhou, the old lady also raised peonies for a while, and she learned a lot of varieties, knowing that this product Zhu Yi was not jealous of jiāo red.
At this time, Zhou Danniang smiled so eloquently, her words were chiseled, and although her posture was low, she was aggressive, if Yao Huang immediately refuted, she would be suspected of being pretentious, and she would be crowned with a crime of overstepping her rudeness. Looking at Yao Huang's face again, it was difficult to sè, and he lowered his eyes to peek at the peony behind him, and Qing Dai felt more and more that there was something strange in it.
"Seize the cui, seize the cui" Qing Dai murmured softly, her eyes looked at the first-grade Zhuyi, recalling what Yao Huangtou said before, this Yao Huang is a person who is proficient in gardening at a glance, she followed Zhao Yuzhi and did not choose the most precious huā, why did she insist on choosing this seemingly special but not the top first-grade Zhuyi?
Qing Dai looked at Zhou Danniang and the two maids with interest, and said in her heart, this matter is becoming more and more interesting today!
Yao Huang was silent for a moment, "The slave and maid thank the lady of the prince for her kindness, and if you are jealous, you might as well give it to this girl, and the slave and maid still choose the ...... for the second girl of Zhao."
Yao Huang didn't finish his words, and suddenly a figure sprang out from the other side, walked straight to Yipin Zhuyi, and with a click, the red huā on the top fell in response to the sound and fell into the hands of the person who came.
Bai Shao's eyes lit up, "Girl, you can be regarded as turning around!" ”
Ji Chun took the Yipin Zhuyi, walked to Yao Huang, and shook it in front of her eyes, "I took a fancy to this huā first, and ordered Bai Peony to come and pick it." What qualifications do you have to say here that you don't choose, if you want to choose, you also need your master.
She never came, so I naturally picked this huā. Also, if you know that this huā is called Duocui, you shouldn't choose it. ”
Yao Huang was angry in his heart, and saw that the huā in his hand was taken away by others, "Why can't you choose?" ”
Ji Chun glanced at Yao Huang and ignored her, turned around and saluted Zhou Danniang, "Mrs. Shizi." ”
Zhou Danniang looked at the Yipin Zhu Yi in Ji Chun's hand, and nodded with satisfaction, "Sister Ji Chun, don't be polite." ”
Ji Chun thanked with a smile, and at this time, Zhou Cuiniang also walked over from behind the green plant shelf, and she approached to salute Zhou Danniang, "Second sister." ”
Ji Chun pulled Zhou Cuiniang over, "Sister Cuiniang, I've chosen a good huā for you, come and take a look!"
This huā is famous, and no one in the garden is afraid that you are qualified to take this huā, what do you think? ”
Just when Ji Chun was showing off proudly, suddenly a voice came from behind everyone: "Miss Ji, this is a bit too much, right?" ”
As soon as everyone turned around, they saw two sisters, Zhao Yuhua and Zhao Yuzhen, standing behind.
