Chapter 10 The Banquet Provokes Troubles Initial Suspicions

Shu Fangyin returned to her yard, obviously frightened a lot, but in addition to this fright, she felt very angry, why could Shu Manyin get the old lady's blue eyes, what did she do? can't even compare to herself, so what else can she talk about, just because she is a concubine, is she destined to be trampled under her feet for the rest of her life?

Shu Fangyin, who returned to the courtyard, threw a few teacups out of anger, and Mama Tian hurriedly rushed over when she heard the sound: "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

"Mama, how can that old thing be stubborn, just because she is a concubine, can she ignore my efforts and intentions?" Shu Fangyin was already so angry that she didn't choose to speak.

"Girl, beware of the ears on the wall." Mama Tian hurriedly silenced Shu Fangyin, she couldn't let others hear this.

Seeing that Shu Fangyin didn't say anything more after listening to her words, she hurriedly went out to exchange for Hongxing: "Hongxing, the girl is in a bad mood, go guard the yard and don't let people approach." ”

"Yes, Mama." Hongxing also heard her young lady's tantrum, so she naturally knew that this matter could not be publicized at will.

Mama Tian, who returned to the house, saw the mess all over the ground, squatted down to clean it up, and said: "Girl, there will be a banquet in half a month, if the girl can gamble on the day of the banquet, not only will she be in the eyes of the dignitaries, but even the old lady and the old man will have to look up at you." ”

"Mama, this old immortal is so eccentric, even if I do it carefully, what can I do?"

"If the girl really wins the jackpot, everyone will see who is attentive and who is lazy, and presumably even if the old lady is biased, she will have to take care of other people's eyes."

These words may have played a role, and Shu Fangyin finally calmed down: "Mama is right, by the way, have you found the sword that Mama asked Mama to find last time?" ”

"Back to the girl, I found a suitable sword." After that, Mama Tian brought a square plate from the inside, on which was a sharp sword, and the scabbard was inlaid with precious jade jewelry, and the end was extremely exquisite.

"This sword looks pretty good, I'm afraid that the east yard will also come with such a hand." Shu Fangyin was satisfied with the sword, but this sword blocked all the value she had saved over the years.

"Rest assured, this sword is the only one in the world, no one is the same, this was collected by a nobleman in the previous dynasty, the sword body is picky, but because this nobleman found only the sword body left, he spent a high price to customize the scabbard, but then the nobleman was down, and he really couldn't do it, and sold everything that could be sold at home, and it took many times to get into the hands of the old slave."

"Mama has worked hard, this sword is indeed exquisite." Shu Fangyin couldn't put it down, if she could use such a sword in exchange for the attention of the Shu family, it would not be in vain for her to spend so much money.

In Lanxiang Garden, Zicao also heard the rumors outside, but she heard the follow-up, and after the old lady knew about it, she quickly suppressed these rumors, and the second lady was also reprimanded by the old lady and went back to her yard, and she didn't get any benefits there.

Seeing that her young lady was back, she hurriedly greeted her: "Miss." ”

"What's the matter, look at the joy on your face?"

"Miss, the second lady wanted to ask for a piece of the pie through rumors, but she was reprimanded by the old lady, and when she returned to the yard, she heard that there was a big fire. I said, this good man is always rewarded. She grabbed Shu Manyin's arm with a beaming face.

"You, quickly put away your expression, don't let the maids below see it, and think you're gloating." Although Shu Manyin said it, her expression was doting, after all, she was not afraid of causing trouble, it was best to provoke Shu Fangyin to jump to her feet, she was afraid that she would mess up, she was afraid that she would not mess around, and she would not find a mistake to start.

"Miss, I heard that the second miss has bought a sharp sword from someone everywhere and wants to give it to the master."

Shu Manyin understood as soon as she heard it, this was planning to start from her father, and she wanted to win her father's favor with it, plus there were still many nobles on the day of the banquet, which was not shallow.

"Then Miss, what are we going to prepare" Lilac has figured it out these days, and now the young lady is holding back her strength with the second miss, and the two of them are going to compete, but she is happy to see it, but she is worried that her young lady will be bullied.

"What are you afraid of, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, your young lady has her own way."

Seeing that Miss is so confident, Lilac and Comfrey are also relieved, they have long seen that the second miss is not pleasing to the eye, she is obviously a concubine, but she wants to be on an equal footing with her own miss in everything, relying on the love of the previous miss, I don't know how many things have been instigated, and now the miss is unwilling to befriend her, which is also what they are happy to see.

Half a month passed quickly, and the day was close to late autumn, and the weather gradually cooled down, especially in the first two days, it rained for several days, an autumn rain and a cold, and on the day of the banquet, the weather was very cold.

Early in the morning, Shu Manyin let the tent be promoted, and let a few girls dress herself, today she wore a moon-white low-sprinkled flower crewneck shirt, revealing a high-necked pipa button middle shirt inside, a frost-white tuanhua placket on the outside, and a royal blue gold silk trimmed skirt.

Lilac was worried that her young lady would catch a cold, so she added a cloak, which was made of white fox fur that her father had hunted for a year, and the thick white fox fur ring was in the swan's neck, which made her palm-sized face more and more exquisite.

As the daughter of the Shu family, today is destined to attract attention, Shu Fangyin wants to press her, and today can be regarded as a dress up, and when Shu Fangyin came over, everyone saw that she was wearing a square neck shirt with tender yellow water lines, a jacket covered with goose egg whites, and a dark blue * skirt.

Seeing that everyone was waiting in the front hall, she also saluted the elders, and Zhou took the hands of the two girls affectionately: "You guys, you must not be idle today, now put on some things first, and save yourself from being hungry for a while." ”

"Yes, Man'er, Fang'er, there are a lot of officials and ladies from various families who came today, and you should also take care of them together." Shu Zhenyuan agreed.

"My daughter knows." Both saluted at the same time.

It's just that the two of them staggered their eyes for a moment, and Shu Fangyin glanced at Shu Manyin angrily.

Soon the guests for the banquet arrived, and Shu Fangyin, in order to highlight herself, deliberately came over when the guests arrived, but she didn't expect it, and just after arriving, she saw Shu Manyin receiving guests in the flower hall.

Her face suddenly became a little unsightly, and then a young lady who was good friends with her came over: "Fang Yin, why are you late today, your eldest sister has a good meeting here." ”

"It's Miss Li, the eldest sister is a concubine, and she should have come early." She deliberately couldn't speak clearly, and secretly looked at Shu Manyin as she spoke.

"Did your big sister bully you?" This Miss Li is the second lady of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites, although she is also a concubine, but there is an excellent eldest sister in the family, and her temperament is a jump, so she has not been very favored at home, and the reason why she is good friends with Shu Fangyin is also because she has always been unpleasant to Shu Manyin.

The enemy of the enemy is a friend, Shu Fangyin knows this truth well, so when Li Jiaonu publicly clashed with Shu Manyin for the first time, Shu Fangyin secretly found Li Jiaonu and said something about her sister who has been favored since she was a child, and her temperament is arrogant and so on.

"I don't think she's a good person, I just look like she's good all day long, but she's a bad one inside, Fang Yin, don't be afraid, I'll definitely help you out of this breath." Her righteous appearance made Shu Fangyin laugh in her heart.

Shu Manyin was talking to the wives of several families, but suddenly saw Li Jiaonu coming towards her with Shu Fangyin.

"Miss Shu is so hospitable, she can't even take care of her sister." Li Jiaonu's provocative appearance suddenly made Shu Manyin understand that her good sister was stumbling again.

"Sister Li, don't say it, I missed the time myself, I don't blame my sister." Shu Fangyin pretended to be anxious and grabbed Li Jiaonu's sleeve, and the people around her secretly paid attention to the movement here when they saw this scene.

"Miss Li, today's banquet at my family, as the children of the Shu family, should accompany their mother to the banquet, the Shu family was preparing for the whole house half a month ago, and I was afraid that my mother would work hard, and secondly, I was worried that the banquet was not good, so I waited in this flower hall early, I don't know where Miss Li thinks I am not good enough?"

Shu Manyin just wants everyone to know that the matter of this banquet was decided half a month ago, she and Shu Fangyin are both daughters of the Shu family, and they should have advanced and retreated together, but now one is at the banquet, and the other has only appeared late, isn't it clear who is who?

"You ......" Li Jiaonu was furious, and just wanted to step forward to say something, but Shu Fangyin pulled her sleeve: "Sister Li, it's really my reason, don't blame my sister." ”

In the blink of an eye, he put the reason on himself, and Li Jiaonu shook off Shu Fangyin's sleeve vigorously: "You are really good, hum." With that, he quickly left the flower hall and went to a place with many female guests.

Shu Fangyin glanced at Shu Manyin timidly, she never found that when this woman started a fire to train people, she didn't dare to look directly, at this moment, she suddenly lost her grasp of what was going to happen next.

The ladies and ladies around just now saw this scene, and it was not so harmonious to come to the Shu family, but many noble ladies were still satisfied with Shu Manyin, and they did not directly hurt the face of the sister-in-law, but they also beat it up, and they maintained the dignity of the house even more, but they were not surprised. As for the second lady of the Shu family, the little family is a little angry.

Shu Fangyin didn't expect that she originally wanted to give everyone a picture of being bullied by her sister and tarnishing Shu Manyin's name, but she was reversed into the army, and she didn't expect that these noble ladies would now have a bad impression of themselves.
