Chapter 16: Beautiful
After the old lady spoke, the wives of the third and fourth rooms led their respective concubines and concubines from the east house to turn the screen of the rich peony and walked over. When the old lady saw her daughters-in-law come out, she moved her arms in order to make Shu Yao sober, Shuyi lowered her head and smiled, her sister Shu Yao was so easy to wake up?
Guerjia bent his knees to the taciturn and plainly dressed eldest lady: "I've seen my sister-in-law." ”
The eldest lady was busy holding Guerjia's wrist, looking cramped and uneasy, she was the eldest son of the concubine Zhihe and his wife, but Zhihe died early, she had no son by her side, she could only guard her daughter Shuyu to live, when Zhihe was alive, she was also a unfavorable, the biological mother was a girl in the old lady's house, and after the old lady married into the duke's mansion, she stopped the decoction, and desperately gave birth to the eldest son of the old lady, Zhihe, at that time, the old lady always thought that she could give birth to a son-in-law, and the eldest son Zhihe was just a matter of face, so Zhihe's body and bones have not been very good, A typhoid fever killed Zhihe.
The old lady thinks that the eldest lady Nala overcomes the blessing and has been cold to her, even the eldest granddaughter Shu Yu doesn't like it very much, just waiting for Shu Yu to point out the marriage after the draft to get some benefits for the house, beside the eldest lady Nala Clan, the same silent eyebrows and eyes are ordinary, and the girl who can only be called beautiful is Shu Yu, Guarjia can see from Shu Yu's new gown that the condition of the long house is not very good, and the financial power in the house is in the hands of the old lady, and every month Nala has no income except for monthly money and silver.
Although the Nala clan is from the big family, but she is a concubine, the mother's illustrious bin is not enough to give her a decent dowry, after the death of Zhihe, the eldest lady Nala clan's maiden family is more and more cold to her, and the daughter who can't earn benefits for the family, the mother's family can't remember, not to mention that the biological mother of the Nala clan has long since died, and the grandmother will remember the widow in the Duke's Palace?
"Second brother and sister don't need to be polite." The eldest wife, Nala, has rarely been taken so seriously, so she is a little cramped, "The second brother and sister are Mrs. Fate, it's good to have this heart, I can't afford it." ”
"Where did my sister-in-law come from? You are the eldest sister-in-law, how can you disrespect the eldest sister-in-law because of the name of the command, there is no reason for this. The Guerjia clan replied that people couldn't make mistakes, and Zhiyuan nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, don't disrespect the eldest sister-in-law." ”
The third wife, Tong Jiashi, and the fourth wife, Liu Jiashi, could only step forward and bow to Guerjia's kneeling: "I've seen the second sister-in-law." ”
Guerjia is not the eldest sister-in-law, but she is the second sister-in-law, they also have to respect, Guarjia's words are all trapped by the eldest lady Nala clan, and they can't afford to disrespect the reputation of the sister-in-law, the eldest lady Nala clan's lips are slightly hum, and she cautiously looked at the old lady who was sitting on the kang and still holding Shu Yao, wanting to show her innocence, but the old lady didn't look at her at all.
The Guerjia clan didn't feel a little guilty, who was innocent in the inner house? In addition to her own children and husbands, if you can use it, it will be a big deal to help her in the future, the eldest lady does not know how to forge ahead after losing her husband, blindly retreats, and fights with different people, even the servants with face dare to sweep her face, and even raise her daughter Shuyu to be submissive, take a step back and open the sky? The Guerjia clan never believed that she was not strong enough, so she was waiting to be stepped on and used.
"Sixth sister, wake up."
Shu Yao heard an extremely pleasant voice in her ears, opened her misty eyes, rubbed her eyes with her little hands, and met the beautiful girl in front of her, "You are the fairy on the painting?" ”
"Sixth sister said it was funny, I'm your cousin Li Zhiqing."
Is she her cousin Li Zhiqing? Since leaving Huizhou, Shu Yao was ordered by Guerjia Tyr to watch out for her cousin Li Zhiqing, Shu Yao pretended to listen seriously, but rarely remembered it in her heart, she was her, Shu Yao was Shu Yao, she couldn't go together, Shu Yao didn't have jealousy in her past life or in this life, she was very slow to do other things in her previous life except for professional knowledge, this life started from the crossing, the Guerjia clan never let her be wronged, she suspected that Li Zhiqing also crossed over, but whether she crossed over has nothing to do with Shu Yao, Shu Yao never thought of recognizing Li Zhiqing.
When she saw Li Zhiqing, Shu Yao had a trace of jealousy for the first time, not because of anything else, just because of her appearance, Li Zhiqing's eyebrows can make women jealous and envious, you can know how stunning she is, now she is only ten years old and has such a standout, after growing up, Shu Yao believes that she will be more beautiful than now, "Alluring the country and the city, the peerless beauty is you." ”
"Sixth sister, I can't afford to be the one who is alluring the country and the city, but the old lady is well raised and looks neat."
Li Zhiqing is wearing an aqua blue cardigan cheongsam, with a cloud pattern of gold thread on the neckline and cuffs, and a random piece of head jewelry is genuine, especially the eye-catching head wearing a blue crystal step shake, the blue crystal is made into a droplet shape, shaking with Li Zhiqing's movement, exuding a pure and extremely blue color, which seems to be surrounded by water, adding a bit of gentleness to the bright Li Zhiqing, and showing her unique temperament more and more.
Shu Yao was taken out of the old lady's arms by Li Zhiqing, the old lady was finally able to relax, pinched her arm, and became more and more satisfied with her granddaughter Li Zhiqing, she just said a few words to make Shu Yao sober, much stronger than several daughters-in-law, the granddaughter is not only filial, her appearance and talent are top-notch, and she has the favor of the queen mother in the palace, the old lady is counting on Li Zhiqing to match the prince, the only thing that hinders her is that her background is not high, although she is raised in the Duke's Palace, but she is the Han military banner, her father died early and the family declined, and the prince's fortune and Jin can't do it, This is the most painful thing for the old lady, why is her granddaughter not her own granddaughter?
"Second aunt, I see that the sixth sister has a slight deficiency disease, I know that the second aunt is not short of ginseng and other precious medicinal materials, and there are also prescriptions to regulate the body of the sixth sister." Li Zhiqing sent Shu Yao back to the Guerjia clan like a big sister, looking up at her eyes as clear as stars, but she was proud of her sister, "It's very good to get ginseng pills in the house, the second aunt might as well let the sixth sister try it." ”
"Ginseng?" Guarjia frowned, "The best ginseng is not common. “
"The second aunt doesn't know, my cousin is the most capable, there are many roots of ginseng, if you lack ginseng, He Shou Wu and other medicinal materials to find your cousin, you will not be disappointed."
Guerjia was puzzled, and spoke to Shu Jing, the second daughter of the third room, who was also raised in front of the old lady, her little face was ruddy, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and a little innocent, there was a blood-red eyebrow mole between the two curved eyebrows, Shu Jing's clothes and accessories were luxurious and exquisite, more like a girl about ten years old than Li Zhiqing.
Shu Yao's pupils widened, and the table seemed to be placed as an apple, if I was not mistaken, it seemed to be an apple from Red Fuji, how could there be a red Fuji in ancient times? Who planted it?
