Chapter 7: Sisters
Huaxi took the incense box from Hongliu's hand and followed Wang's mother into the house.
Xiao Shi leaned on the lapis pillow crooked on the three screens of flowers and birds inlaid with nan wood, and was smiling and talking to a round-faced girl sitting next to the collapse, and the round-faced girl took a beauty fan in her hand and gently fanned Xiao's wind. On the chairs below, two girls sat on the left and right, and they both listened to Xiao and the round-faced girl.
Xiao Shi caught a glimpse of Huaxi coming in, stopped and waved his hand to signal Huaxi to come closer.
"Old lady Ann!" Huaxi blessed his body, and handed the incense box to the maid who served, "This is the fragrance of the gods." Because it is a wet fragrance, it will be dissipated after a long time, and the efficacy will be poor, so I don't dare to make more, you can use it to see, if you think it is good, I will make it. ”
"Okay, Huaxi has a heart. Come, meet the five girls of your uncle's family. Xiao pointed to the round-faced girl next to him.
"Hello Fifth Sister Xiao!" When Huaxi heard this, she saluted Miss Xiao Wu.
Miss Xiao was sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a dresses with a dark green ribbon tied around her waist, and her figure was a little fat. With a round face, her facial features are not very beautiful, but she has a pair of crooked smiling eyes, which are bright and shiny when they blink, as if she can speak, which makes her face three points more vivid.
"The old lady was talking about her sister just now, and you came while talking." Xiao Wu girl is familiar with herself, and handed the fan to the maid who was waiting by Xiao's side, stood up and enthusiastically pulled Huaxi up and down and looked, "My sister is an elegant person, not only handsome, but also able to make incense." The old lady is eccentric, such a good sister hides it privately, and she doesn't let Xiao Wu see it sooner! ”
Xiao Shi said angrily: "You poor girl! I'm still afraid that Huaxi will be damaged by you. ”
Huaxi pursed her lips and smiled, and said a little shyly: "Fifth Sister Xiao is round and jade, Huaxi is not as good as her sister's birth." ”
"Yo, look at how good this new sister is. I can't think of such an apt word to say that people are fat, no, no, it should be said that people are plump and rich. ”
On the right hand, next to the collapsed edge, the egg-faced girl covered her face with a handkerchief and chuckled, her eyes were bright, and she was charming in anticipation, and she was a beauty. However, when the girl's eyes swept over Huaxi's face and turned to Miss Xiao Wu, her eyes were full of mockery.
The atmosphere in the room cooled down for a moment.
The corners of the fifth girl's mouth froze, and the anger in her eyes flashed, and then she hooked up a larger arc, "What Sister Yunlin said is extremely true. It's a pity that the princess of Thailand doesn't like to be too thin, otherwise she was at the plum banquet last year...... Hehe, where is the turn to get someone else. ”
It turned out that the beautiful girl who just spoke was Mu Yunlin, the sixth girl in the house, and the daughter of the long house of Mu Jizhong's wife Yin. Because the eldest grandmother Yin is the concubine of the late imperial uncle Duanjing Wang, although the status of the biological mother is not high, but she is also from a serious official family, so Mu Yunlin can be regarded as a royal bloodline, plus her appearance is the most outstanding among the sisters, and she is quite favored by the old lady.
Yun Lin was poked to the sore spot by Miss Xiao's snatching, her pretty face turned pale, she glared at Miss Xiao Wu fiercely, and then turned her head to glance at Huaxi.
Hua Xi, who was swept by Yun Lin's eyes, shrank her neck, bit her lip, pursed her lips and stared at the tips of her shoes aggrievedly, sighing silently in her heart, I don't know what happened at the plum banquet? Look at this posture, these two clearly don't deal with each other, and their words have become a fire break of firecrackers. Hey, none of us can afford to mess with us, so we have to pretend to be "weak".
"Okay, you two little enemies are filial piety on weekdays, why are you confused today? didn't bother my grandmother, but also scared Sister Huaxi. Come, you have been standing for a while, sit down and say. ”
The tall girl opposite Yun Lin got up and pulled Huaxi to sit down on the left-hand side.
Huaxi was attracted by her gentle voice, and couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at the girl in front of her, fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a plain white dark flower dress, with a white jade flowing cloud hairpin on her head, her complexion is good, although she is not as good as Mu Yunlin, but her dignified and generous temperament is not comparable to Mu Yunlin.
"Sister is ......?" Huaxi asked weakly.
The girl smiled, like a spring flower blooming, stunning at a glance.
"Hehe, I'm your fourth sister Yunyi."
Mu Yunyi, the daughter of the second room.
Huaxi smiled back, "Hello fourth sister!" ”
"Come, I'll show you around. This is Yun Ning, the seventh sister of the third room. Yun Yi pointed to the sweet-looking and cute girl next to her seat, and then pointed to the opposite side, "Over there are the sixth sister Yun Lin and the fifth sister Yun Xin from the big room." ”
Huaxi had asked Mother Liu to inquire clearly about the young ladies and sons of the Mu family's third room, Yun Ning and Yun Lin were born from the concubines, and only Yun Xin was born from the concubines. Last time, I saw Mu Xiuyuan, the third brother in the second room, and Mu Xiuwen, the eldest brother in the big room, and Mu Xiucheng, the second brother in the concubine, didn't see it.
Huaxi stood up and saluted one by one, Yun Ning smiled at Huaxi, Yun Lin simply took the tea bowl and drank tea, Yun Xin bowed slightly.
This time, the atmosphere eased a lot.
Seeing this, Xiao Shi said: "I am tired and go into the inner room to rest." Your little sisters are here to talk. ”
Wang's mother helped Xiao to the bedroom.
Yun Yi proposed to go and sit in her yard.
Miss Xiao Wu tugged on Yunyi's sleeve and said happily: "Okay, I haven't been to the fourth sister for tea for a long time." ”
Yun Lin glanced at Xiao Wu, and snorted coldly in her nose, "It's like you can't afford to eat tea." ”
Xiao Wu looked at Mu Yunlin with a smile, "I just like to eat the fourth sister's tea, what's wrong?" Unlike some people who can't even serve tea well......"
Yun Linqiao's face was flushed, obviously angry, and she gritted her teeth as if she wanted to eat people.
"Xiao Wu, are you finished? Don't think that if you like the princess of Thailand, you can marry into the palace. After speaking, Yun Lin was dazzled.
It seems that because of the plum banquet, Mu Yunlin must have made a fool of herself on it. Huaxi secretly speculated, and when she raised her head, she happened to see Yun Lin looking at herself, her eyes were a little weird.
Yun Lin quickly stopped glaring at Xiao Wu and ignored Huaxi. Huaxi frowned slightly, puzzled.
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then hooked the corners of his lips disappreciatively, "Then let's wait and see." ”
"Alright, don't make a fuss. Since I was a child, I haven't seen you stop. Are you still going to my hospital? ”
Xiao Wu said: "Go, why don't you go?" ”
"I didn't feel well, so I went back first. Fifth sister, didn't you just say that your aunt had a pretense to go and take a look? Yun Lin couldn't see Xiao Wu, and she didn't want to leave alone, so she wanted to leave with her sister.
Yun Xin's facial features are delicate, not as beautiful as Yun Yi, Yun Lin is bright, Yun Ning is sweet, and her delicate and can't help but have a unique charm and pity, so she softly agreed, and looked at Yun Yi and Xiao Wu timidly, "My aunt is sick, so I won't accompany Xiao Wu's sister to eat tea, so I'll leave first." ”
Yun Yi didn't say much, nodded in agreement.
Out of the Lotus Fragrance Courtyard, the two sisters of the big house were separated from Huaxi and the others.
Miss Xiao Wu pulled Yun Yi to walk in front and bite her ears, while Hua Xi and Yun Ning followed behind.
"I haven't heard the incense made by my sister anywhere else, so I don't know what it used?"
Yun Ning gently shook the colorful butterfly and peony fan in his hand and opened his mouth to ask, and Huaxi said the medicinal materials and usage curative effects.
"This smells weird and exquisite." Yun Ning's big eyes flashed twice, and then said, "Hey, the incense fragrance used by my sister is special, is it orange fragrance?" ”
Huaxi smiled and asked, "Hmm! I don't know what incense Sister Seven likes? ”
"Do you have any other recipes?"
Huaxi nodded, and Yun Ning said excitedly: "My sister can make apricot blossom fragrance?" ”
