Chapter 4 Instigation
The capital is still as prosperous and lively as ever, the royal family is countless, no matter what kind of chaos happens in the capital, as long as someone does not want it to spread out, the capital will always sing and dance, a peaceful faction.
The annual chrysanthemum appreciation conference is coming, and countless rich ladies are excited, this is the best time for them to choose their sweethearts!
Because the Tongbuntang exam is not long separated from the chrysanthemum appreciation conference every year, this year it was simply put together.
In this way, this chrysanthemum viewing meeting has become a banquet to reward the children of the nobility.
In previous years, the old lady gave Su Yiyao a few clothes casually, because she was the one who dragged the entire Su Mansion back, but this year is different, this year's exam and the chrysanthemum conference are put together, and it can't be said if you don't make clothes.
So, early in the morning, the old lady went to the maid next to her to invite Su Yiyao, saying that there was a new tailor in the house, and the eldest lady was asked to pick it too.
Bai Zhi and Luluo suddenly became happy, and then accompanied Su Yiyao to the hall again, Bai Zhi said happily: "Miss, don't be sad, doesn't Miss like chrysanthemums the most?" Now it's okay, you can go to enjoy the chrysanthemums. ”
Su Yiyao was speechless all the way, she knew Mrs. Su's thoughts. Chrysanthemum appreciation, that is the place where dignitaries choose daughters-in-law, many families, all hope that their daughters are as beautiful as possible, although the old lady does not like her, but she is the daughter of Sufu after all, if it is favored by a blind aristocratic son, in exchange for huge benefits.
At the annual chrysanthemum appreciation conference, Su Yiyao is the one who is isolated and left out, and the reason for this naturally does not need to be detailed.
Speaking of which, she was infatuated with Mu Changge but also because of the chrysanthemum, just because Mu Changge said back then, "Pity this white chrysanthemum is delicate and helpless." ”
Since then, she has identified this handsome man.
She felt that she was just as delicate and helpless, and like the white chrysanthemum that was ignored by everyone, people also regarded her as a bad thing.
Su Yiyao had the idea of sympathy, she felt that this man would definitely pity her in the future, but she didn't know that it was just a man's joke.
Later, Su Yiyao learned from the ladies of other families that the man was Mu Changge, the sixth prince of the current emperor.
But young people like it for no reason, like it, it's like an old excerpt in the old city, soft words.
Su Yiyao thought all the way, but she didn't realize that she had arrived in the hall, and it wasn't until the green pothos reminded her that she reacted, moved the lotus step lightly, and stepped in.
The old lady was dressed in a red robe and sat on the Taishi chair drinking tea, Su Yiyao glanced at it, and wanted to laugh out loud, the old lady is close to the age of antiquity, wearing such a gorgeous material, it looks nondescript.
Su Ningfu is standing behind her mother at the moment, it stands to reason that on this occasion, it is not the turn of the concubine to go out to steal the limelight, but the old lady is not in the house, so they can only let them come.
So, she and Su Ningfu both got invitations to the flower banquet.
Su Yiyao honestly asked the old lady to say goodbye, and Aunt Zhao pulled her to the table with a smile: "The eldest lady is finally here, come and pick up the fabric, and let Mo Niang measure it for you later." ”
Su Ningfu also stepped forward with a smile: "My sister's body is better, I've already finished picking, so hurry up and pick my sister." ”
As soon as these words came out, the topic was pulled to Su Yiyao without missing a trace, obviously blaming her for being late. The old lady took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Earlier, don't think that you are a concubine, you can act recklessly." ”
Su Yiyao glanced at them, too lazy to care about them, and slowly paced a pair of pink embroidered shoes to the table with the fabric.
Mo Niang stood at the table with low eyebrows, she was the tailor of the Su Mansion, and she handled the new clothes up and down the Su Mansion every year. She worked as an errand in the palace when she was young, and her skills were very good.
Su Yiyao looked at the fabric on the table, a begonia-colored one, which had been picked out and put aside, needless to say, it must be Su Ningfu's.
The scene of the previous life flashed through Su Yiyao's mind again, at the banquet that day, Su Ningfu was wearing a begonia-colored flower lily thin skirt, and the people lined were more delicate than flowers.
And she, wearing a bright red dress and carrying the golden jewelry that the old lady gave her, became a joke.
And the bright red fabric was naturally selected at the instigation of this scheming aunt and sister-in-law.
As expected, Su Ningfu laughed and said: "The eldest sister has white skin, and she is a concubine, with a noble background, that big celebrity is the most suitable person, and she can also show that her sister is white-skinned and snowy, which is really very flattering." ”
The old lady glanced at Su Yiyao and didn't speak, but there was a sneering smile on the corner of her mouth.
Su Yiyao looked at the looks of all of them, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, what a good show! What a trick!
The scene of the eldest lady is not there, Su Yiyao has been bullied since she was a child, the people up and down in this mansion have their own ghosts, which one is really for her sake, the clothes that the old lady sends every year are just what Su Ningfu doesn't want.
They decided that Su Yiyao didn't know how to pick clothes.
The bright red clothes are to match her complexion, but it looks too cheap, and with the addition of gold jewelry, she is the daughter of a small man in the market.
Back then, Bai Zhi and Luluo wanted to persuade her to throw away those jewelry, but Su Yiyao was so shrewd that day, she just dressed like that, and she was in a hurry to lose face.
Su Yiyao looked around and let out a sneer, it was really ridiculous! Do you still want to make a fool of yourself now!
Su Yiyao sneered, pointed to one of the silk silks, and said, "That's it." ”
It was a lotus blue material, too old-fashioned, no daughter's family would be willing to wear such an old material, if there was no luxury all over the body, it would not be able to suppress this color, and Aunt Zhao would not dare to wear such a color easily.
Aunt Zhao's eyes flashed, she felt that this eldest lady seemed to be different today, but she didn't say what was different, so she had to smile and say: "Why did the eldest lady choose such a dark color, the eldest lady is young, but she has to wear it brightly and lively, so as to show everyone's beautiful demeanor." ”
The old lady asked the maid to bring her over, although she didn't like Su Yiyao and wanted to deliberately make Su Yiyao ugly, but she didn't want Su Yiyao to affect the entire Su Mansion alone, this color was so dark, it would make people think that their young ladies in the Su Mansion were old-fashioned, and it would hinder Su Ningfu.
So, she also said: "Yes, this color is too dark, Yao'er should change it." ”
Su Yiyao didn't speak yet, but Su Ningfu on the side said with a smile: "The eldest sister's vision is good, this lotus blue, I think it's pretty good, the eldest sister has never worn such dark clothes, it's good to give it a try, she must be full of luxury." ”
Mo Niang listened on the side, she already knew it in her heart, she looked at Su Yiyao with a calm face, and couldn't help sighing. This eldest lady of the Su family is really stupid and ignorant as rumored by the outside world, doesn't she know that the second lady with a honey-bellied sword is really changing the law to make her ugly?
