Chapter Twenty-Seven: Spring Goes and Autumn Comes
A few days later, the queen mother Xuanbaozhi entered the palace to let Master Huitong approve the words in the Beijing spread loudly, some said that the treasure of the Wangfu Wang family, some said that she is a hundred years of rare lucky stars, and more exaggerated said that the treasure is the fairy of the queen mother of heaven next to the earth, for a time Baozhi became the heart of the heart of the eyes of the ladies in Beijing, there are men of appropriate age in the family to inquire whether the treasure has a marriage contract, fortunately, the Zhao Mansion is still in the filial piety period, otherwise the matchmaker will break through the threshold, but this is also a small official family, The truly powerful family clan can't look down on even if the life of the treasure is good.
These rumors were first spread by Tang Wan, but I heard that the person who Baozhi didn't want to mention the most also helped a lot, for example, why was Duchess Anguo also present on the day of entering the palace, and the rumors spread so fast, and there were so many versions, and thanks to him, Junyan was full of praise for Chu Yao, and recently he talked with Baozhi for three sentences without leaving Yangxi, every time Baozhi just diverted the topic, Junyan said a few words and went back to Yangxi, and Baozhi's head was big.
Afterwards, Junyan and Baozhi told Zhao Shi and Pan the whole story, Zhao was shocked and gritted her teeth with hatred for the initiator Sun, she was not ready to take Baozhi to Zhuangzi to live, she couldn't let Sun succeed.
Spring goes to autumn, Baozhi has been in his grandfather's house for two years, during this period Cousin Xingchen came back, Cousin Luohua found a famous gentleman for their sisters, I heard that it was Cui's brother-in-law to find it, Sun's son will praise his son-in-law when he meets people, and he has said that it has been more than half a year, and if Xingchen is present, he will always use her sharp Danfeng eyes to whiten her a few times.
On this day, the three sisters got out of school and went to Hemingju to eat, and before they entered the house, they heard Sun chattering in the house: "If you want to say that we have a heart, we always don't forget these sisters at home when we get good things." ”
The three sisters looked at each other and pouted, and the footsteps did not stop, and the maid lifted the curtain and entered the house, and Mrs. Zhao smiled and beckoned a few people to sit down: "It's a day today, it's hot." "I asked Cui Man to serve them iced sour plum soup, "Although this sour plum soup can't be eaten much to cool off, it's a girl in the end, it's not good to be cold." ”
"Grandmother, the sour plum soup made in your small kitchen tastes better than that made in the big kitchen." Baozhi took a few sips and put it down.
Zhao smiled: "You little gluttonous cat, everything from your grandmother is good." ”
Ji Ying also smiled and said: "Bao Yatou's mouth has always been tricky, you can taste the sugar and honey in a dish, but the food made by my grandmother's small kitchen is really good." ”
"Said that the Noble girl followed me, when I was in my mother's house, I was very mouthful, my father found a chef for me, and found a lot of secret recipes and the like over the years, and I got married and came here, this sour plum soup was boiled with the recipe I found back then." Mrs. Zhao likes to tell her children stories about the past, and Li Baozhi likes to listen to her grandmother tell these things.
Seeing that everyone was talking about eating, Sun was anxious to turn the topic back, and said with a smile: "Sister Ying, your sister Luohua asked people to bring the current fashionable glass hairpins, one for each of your three sisters." ”
Ji Ying was quite surprised: "Glass hairpin? When the first assistant daughter held a flower party, I saw that she had a glazed hairpin on her head, and I heard that the glazed hairpin of Jin Liuzhai had been bought for dozens of taels, so how could we be embarrassed to accept such a valuable thing. "Sister Luohua, a hairpin of dozens of taels, said that she would send it, how could she catch up.
When Sun got this, his face was even more proud: "When did your sister Luohua get a good thing and didn't think about you, your sister has a happy event this time, you have to prepare a thank you gift." ”
Xingchen rolled his eyes: "Happy event? Could it be that Cousin Luohua is pregnant? ”
"Yes, this is a great joy, Sister Hua has only been married for a few years..."Old Mrs. Zhao coughed lightly a few times, interrupting Sun's words.
Old Madam Zhao frowned and said, "Say something in front of a few little girls." ”
Sun quickly stopped talking and let the maid hold the jewelry box and let a few girls pick up the hairpin, Baozhi saw the three hairpins lying in the jewelry box and couldn't help but admire, one is a peach blossom made of pink and white glazed petals, stacked into a peach blossom on the sandalwood hairpin, like a peach branch that has just been broken, the other is a big white treasure flower in the middle, surrounded by blue and red glass, you can imagine how Jiying will be born on the head, gentle and dignified, the last one is a pile of small red begonia of falling tassel hairpins, lively and small, very suitable for Baozhi, It seems that Cousin Luohua has already thought about the three of them, and the three hairpins are all selected according to the temperament and personality of the three of them.
The three of them had a tacit understanding to choose the hairpin that suited them, Baozhi thanked Sun with a smile and then said to Mrs. Zhao: "The hairpin sent by Sister Luohua is so beautiful, I will receive it in the box when I go back, and wait for Tang Wan to make her greedy." ”
Xingchen pouted disdainfully: "I don't have any vision, it's just a glass hairpin, I can really speak." "She has always disliked slapping horses, she thinks it's good and won't say it, a word doesn't taste right when she says it from her mouth, once Bao Zhi was afraid to see the stars and didn't even dare to say anything, but now she gradually understands that the stars are not bad, and most of the people who listen to her talk are in the left ear and out of the right ear, and don't care about her.
Sun was not happy, her daughter sent them something, I don't know how to thank and say such things, it is really an uneducated wild girl, she is an elder, if she teaches her a few words in front of her mother-in-law, I am afraid that she will dislike her mother-in-law again, so she swallowed her anger secretly.
Zhao saw that Baozhi had been fiddling with the hairpin, so he beckoned Baozhi to pass, and took the hairpin to Baozhi and pinned it on his head: "I think this hairpin is the best with your silver-red butterfly and brocade shirt." ”
Mrs. Zhao looked at Baozhi with a smile, among the grandchildren, she was most pained by Baozhi, how to look at it: "I made the clothes for a long time, how can the children still wear them so quickly, I think I just opened the library and selected some materials to make a few summer clothes and autumn clothes for a few children." After speaking, he asked Sun to go to someone to open a warehouse to find materials, "Only look for that good material, and it is not beautiful to keep it and turn around and recruit insects." ”
Sun's stubbornness should be, on this hot day, the old lady wants to come out one by one, and those good materials are not left for the future granddaughter-in-law to these outsiders.
Ji Ying said: "Grandmother, we eat and live here every day, how can you make clothes for us again." ”
Mrs. Zhao doesn't like her eldest daughter and doesn't like Ji Ying very much, if others say this, she will feel sensible and well-behaved, Ji Ying said that she felt that she was twisting and wanted to refuse to welcome, and frowned: "Then you will make a few fewer pieces, and let your mother do it for you another day." Ji Yingden made a big red face.
Xingchen didn't hold back and sneered, and bit his ear with Baozhi: "Look, the sycophant is in the wrong place." "Baozhi is helpless.
Zhao was busy playing a round game: "If you want to say that their children are the most sensible, these two stupid children will not even say thank you if they have received so many benefits from their grandmother." ”
Bao Zhi and Xingchen hurriedly stepped forward to thank Old Lady Zhao.
Sun wiped the sweat that was dripping down and asked a few rough mothers-in-law to bring the cloth they found, and Mrs. Zhao picked out a few expensive silk and silk yarn to let Sun send them to Luohua, and said: "She has the body to make a few sets of wide clothes to wear, although the Hou Mansion is not short of these, but in the end it is our mind." ”
Sun touched the precious silk and smiled with satisfaction, these fabrics are all old materials, and if you have money, you must have bought them: "Then I will thank you for Luohua first." ”
