Chapter 10: Li Ji
After Yao Zhenzhen walked out of Qi Gong's carriage, she had another greeting with Qi Jiagolang.
By the time she got back to her car, it was past midday.
After she had a good meal, she let Zhao go to rest.
Since they went on the road with the Qi family, Zhao and Liu Quan have also set up temporary tents outside the car, and it is much better to sleep on their knees than before.
Night, quietly.
The laughter and noise of the Qi family team added a lot of vitality and fun to this originally quiet night.
Yao Zhenzhen held a book in her hand and read it with relish. Until the sound of the piano sounded, she reached out and pulled the curtain of the car, and looked at the sound of the piano through the slightest moonlight, with an inexplicable expression.
At this time, she remembered the gift from the royal family tonight.
She reached out and took the box on the collapse table in her hand, stroked it carefully, and said secretly, sure enough, it was a good wood, not only felt lubricated, but also faintly exuded a burst of fragrance.
Yao Zhenzhen had a smile on the corner of her mouth, only to hear the sound of 'click', the box was opened, and I saw a fine jasper orchid hairpin lying inside, and the hairpin was also inlaid with a red gemstone, which was elegant and expensive.
The workmanship is exquisite.
Yao Zhenzhen picked up the hairpin and looked at it carefully for a while, then looked out the window again, listening to the sound of the piano around her ears, and the smile on the corner of her mouth did not dissipate for a long time.
Another rush since the plague event. Yao Zhenzhen, as usual, eats every day except sleeping, eats and sleeps, and the only leisure and entertainment is reading. Occasionally, he would get out of the carriage to move some muscles, but the range was just around his donkey cart for a little while, and he never took the initiative to approach the Qi family.
On this day, Qi Jia Goro came again.
"Yao girl, we are going to play a talent game, do you want to participate?" Although he came to invite Yao Zhenzhen many times, or to eat, or drink, or to play, or to have fun, but she was rejected by meandering, but so what? Nothing could stop his heart from wanting to get close to her.
"Xie Wulang invited, and then I went over." How many times has this Qi family gorou come to her, and she has to be taken care of by the Qi family more along the way, so it's not appropriate to refuse like this.
It's not that she's hypocritical, she really doesn't like to mix with those sisters-in-law of the family. She knew that her status was low, so those gentlemen dared to look at her as if she were admiring goods, and those sisters-in-law would only sneer at her.
Speaking of which, even if she just stands there, she can give birth to some unnecessary rights and wrongs.
"Really? So much better. Qi Jiawulang didn't seem to expect that Yao Zhenzhen would agree for the first time, and it was difficult to suppress his joy for a while.
"Girl, don't you dislike those people? Why did you agree today? After Qi Jiagoro left, Zhao asked puzzled.
"Nurse, I can't keep ignoring them, we are still some time away from Ningdu City." Yao Zhenzhen said helplessly.
In her previous life, she didn't like to socialize, and now she doesn't like to be lively.
But when I think about it, it's not a way to hide myself in a donkey cart like this.
She's not really unsightly.
"That's what the girl said." Zhao also felt that her girl should go out for a walk.
She felt that Yao Zhenzhen used to be happy, but since she got better, she has become more and more able to sit still, no matter what she acts and speaks, she is much more stable than before, which is a good thing.
But she always felt that her own girl was only fourteen years old, and she was not yet in time, and compared with her sisters-in-law of the same age, she was less lively than she should have at that age.
When Yao Zhenzhen took the Zhao family over, everyone in the Qi family didn't know what they were talking about, and everyone was laughing. Even the Duke of Qi and the wife of the Qi family, who rarely showed up, were present.
"Yo, this is our beauty that Wei Gongzi can't let go, right?" The woman in the turquoise skirt looked at Yao Zhenzhen carefully and said with a smile: "Tsk, it's really a rare beauty." ”
"Shibo is good." The woman's joke, Yao Zhenzhen didn't pay attention to it, but walked straight to Qi Gong and blessed her body.
"Zhen Zhen is here, hurry, hurry up and take a seat, my family doesn't need to see me like this." Gong Qi said with a smile to Yao Zhenzhen, looking like he regarded Yao Zhenzhen as his own family, and his attitude was very kind.
"Yes." Yao Zhenzhen nodded in response.
"Yao girl, quick, sit here." Qi Jiagoro shouted with a smile, pointing to the empty seat on his side and beckoning to Yao Zhenzhen.
Seeing this, Yao Zhenzhen just nodded to him, but did not walk towards her, but chose to sit next to Qi Yao, who had never looked down on her. There is no way, who let only Qi Yao have a vacant position around her at this time, but whenever there is a choice, she does not want to take the initiative to dislike people.
Qi Jia Goro was a little disappointed when he saw this.
"Hey, who made you sit here? Didn't the fifth brother leave a place for you! Qi Yao saw her sitting over, and said with a displeased face.
"Excuse me." Yao Zhenzhen nodded to her, and sat down directly, ignoring her.
"Why are you so cheeky, you go to the fifth brother, I don't welcome you." Qi Yao said angrily.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, and you're ignoring me." Qi Yao saw that she was pouring tea and water by herself, ignoring her, and she was even more angry.
"Sister-in-law of the Qi family, I know that you don't like me, and similarly, I don't like you either, but tonight I hope we still coexist peacefully, less trouble, and save time to spoil everyone's interest, you and I are not good-looking." Yao Zhenzhen looked back at her, her voice was soft, but her tone was extremely cold.
"You, how dare you talk to me like that." Qi Yao looked at her in disbelief.
She grew up in Fengdu with her father since she was a child, because the family is powerful and noble, she is not respected and afraid wherever she goes, this Yao Zhenzhen dares to talk to her like this.
"Sister-in-law of the Yao family, since she can get into the eyes of the eldest prince of Wei, she must have some outstanding ability, right? Let's open our eyes tonight. ”
At this time, Yao Zhenzhen raised her eyes to look at the person who spoke.
I saw this woman, dressed in a jasper skirt, with a plump and enchanting figure, and a pair of seductive eyes were revealed under the heavy makeup, and the eyes were full of calculation.
It turned out to be her?
A smile appeared on the corner of Yao Zhenzhen's mouth, and she got up and replied loudly, "Who should I be?" It turned out to be Lihime. ”
This Li Ji was originally a favorite concubine in Wei Quan's mansion earlier, because she was good at dancing and knew some hooking skills, she was very popular with Wei Quan. But after Yao Xunmei entered the mansion, her limelight in the Wei Mansion became more and more unusual, and over time, because of Wei Quan's exclusive favor of Yao Xunmei, she couldn't even see Wei Quan's face.
Later, when Wei Quan went to Fengdu, he personally selected a few concubines and went together.
Poor thing, this Li Ji is in it. She thought that she was accompanying Wei Quan to go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but in the end, Wei Quan was just to win over Duke Qi and deliberately brought them with him, in order to give them to Duke Qi as gifts.
Yao Zhenzhen had seen this Li Ji from afar when she was in the Wei Mansion, but she was also a rare beauty, thinking of so many people, she dared to speak freely as a little concubine, and she must have won the favor of Qi Gong.
Since ancient times, concubines have been like clothes, and concubines are even more popular among the royal elites.
If you want to blame, you can only blame this world.
"Gong Qi, you may not know, this woman also has a sister, and you must have heard of her sister's name." Li Ji took a glass of wine in her hand, brought it to Qi Gong, and said with an ambiguous expression.
"Oh? Let's hear it. As soon as Qi Gong heard that he also knew him, he asked with some curiosity.
"Has Gong Qi ever heard of the first beauty of Weiyang---- Yao Xunmei?" Li Ji said with a smug face.
"This Weiyang No. 1 beauty Ji ---- Yao Xunmei's reputation, the old man knows a thing or two, but unfortunately he has never seen him!" Qi Gong said with some pity.
Dajin, the people are open, and the so-called celebrities and gentlemen are all free and easy, and they are honest and honest. Because of advocating the beauty of nature, not stuck in things, and not formal, so any true temperament revealed by this Qi Gong will not be scorned by people.
"Wei Quan Suri loves Yao Xunmei very much, and he is reluctant to let her come out to meet people easily, but in this world, no one who has seen Yao Xunmei does not fall under her pomegranate skirt." The woman said with an exaggerated smile.
completely said that Yao Xunmei was a woman in the land of hooking, as if she knew how to hook people.
"If that's what Li Ji said, then Yao Xunmei is even more beautiful than the first beauty in Kyoto?" Someone heard Li Ji praise Yao Xunmei like this, and how stunning she was, and asked with some curiosity for a while.
"I've never seen the most beautiful woman in Kyoto, but she is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen." Li Ji smiled and said, "Isn't it, sister-in-law of the Yao family?" ”
"What does this have to do with the sister-in-law of the Yao family?"
"Both of them are surnamed Yao, isn't it?"
Everyone followed Li Ji's words and turned their eyes to Yao Zhenzhen, and immediately discussed.
"Yes, Yao Xunmei is my sister-in-law." Yao Zhenzhen looked at Li Ji with a smug face and said, "But so what? What the hell do you want to do? ”
