Soon, their new clothes arrived.

Gu Xiyan's jacket is a goose-yellow lake silk embroidered with emerald green entwined branches, an eight-piece skirt with dark patterns of emerald green brocade honeysuckle flowers, a dark green silk cloak, the hem of the cloak is woven with a bowl-sized pink hibiscus flower, and a pair of dark green shoes embroidered with five emerald green bats. Liu Meier's clothes are exactly the same as her style, texture and workmanship, but the color is slightly different. Her jacket was pink, her skirt was purple, and her cloak and shoes were dark patterns of crow blue ice cracks.

Liu Mei'er looked at it and frowned: "Aunt is eccentric, look at your cloak, how beautiful it is!" ”

Dark green embroidered with pink flowers, bright and bright with a hint of enchantment.

Gu Xiyan was thinking that this body was too ostentatious, and when she heard Liu Mei'er say this, she was in her arms and hurriedly said, "Then let's change the cloak!" ”

"Don't." Liu Meier said, "I'm not robbing you for clothes, I really think my aunt is too partial!" ”

Gu Xiyan smiled: "I'm envious of your good-looking cloak, you're so good, envy me." Wouldn't it be just right that we changed! ”

Who doesn't love pretty things?

Where did Liu Mei'er believe it, insisted on refusing to change, and said: "I am taller than you, wearing your cloak, and my calves are outside, and I am cold to death......"

In fact, Liu Mei'er is only half a head taller than Gu Xiyan, of course, this is a bit exaggerated, but it can also be seen that Liu Mei'er really didn't say this to earn clothes with Gu Xiyan. But the more she is like this, the more Gu Xiyan thinks that her confession is cute, and the more she has to exchange with her.

The two were chatting there, when they saw Bao Niang lift the curtain, and Mrs. Wei walked in.

The two were startled.

Liu Mei'er changed her excitement just now, and respectfully saluted Mrs. Wei with Gu Xiyan, Qiu Gui was busy straightening the cushion on the kang, and Bao Niang helped Mrs. Wei to sit up.

Mrs. Wei seemed to be very interested, and asked them kindly, "What are the two sisters talking about?" ”

Twelve garments were made in one go, and there was no designation for whom at that time. Why do you want to say so much?

Gu Xiyan hurriedly responded, "Just saying that the clothes are good-looking", but Liu Mei'er over there had already said honestly: "I like Sister Gu's cloak, she said to change it with me." ”

Gu Xiyan sighed helplessly.

Mrs. Wei's eyes were bright, and she said with a smile: "Miss Gu is a caring person, I don't know, can I give anything to Mei'er!" ”

What do you mean?

Test me?

As soon as she thought of the Wei Shiying she found who resembled Ye Zisu, Gu Xiyan felt that there was a fire burning in her heart.

She smiled sweetly and said softly, "This money and things are all outside the body." Nature can be made. But there are some things that I want people to see! ”

Mrs. Wei stared at Gu Xiyan with burning eyes: "Oh, you are so sure of yourself!" ”

Gu Xiyan smiled like a flower: "If a person is not sure of himself, then can you still expect others to be sure of you!" ”

For a while, Mrs. Wei's eyes were sharp, as if she had seen a chick and an eagle. It was as if he was going to eat her.

Gu Xiyan smiled calmly and calmly, looking back at Mrs. Wei quietly, like a calm sea that can contain all the storms.

One is rigid and one is soft, but they don't let it go at all, and there is immediately a sharp tension between the two.

Liu Mei'er looked at the aggressive Mrs. Wei. looked at the unwavering Gu Xiyan again, hurriedly walked between the two in a panic, and said helplessly: "Auntie." Don't be angry, I don't care about my sister's things...... Actually, this crow-blue cloak is just right for my clothes...... I'm a pink jacket and a purple skirt...... Sister Gu is a goose-yellow jacket, an emerald green skirt, and a dark green color is just right......"

Mrs. Wei's face showed impatience, her brows furrowed slightly, the corners of her mouth slightly furrowed, and she said a few words.

It's just a pity that the sound is too low. Whether it was Gu Xiyan or Liu Mei'er, they didn't hear it clearly, only Duan Yingluo, who was standing on the side, could hear it clearly.

The corners of Mrs. Wei's mouth were slightly twitched, and she said hatefully, "Silly eldest sister."

Duan Yingluo looked at the scene in front of him again, thought about Mrs. Wei's words, and lowered her head. Hold on. I didn't laugh out loud.

What Mrs. Wei said to Mama Yi, of course, Duan Yingluo was not the only one who heard it. So on the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year. The small kitchen of Huaiyuan drew up the recipe for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and Mother Liu personally went to Shangzhengju to get the ingredients. Good ground yellow beef, whole lamb hind leg, large pork tenderloin, red ground turnip, bright green Chinese cabbage, tender water tofu...... Everything is just waiting for the arrival of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Tiangong also made beauty, the weather was sunny and windless, Gu Xiyan and Mother Liu were making dumplings in the kitchen, and Baoniang ran to call her: "Miss Gu, you can rest quickly!" Madame, please come over. ”

When Mama Liu heard this, she hurriedly asked Mrs. Li to fetch water, Gu Xiyan washed her hands and went to Mrs. Wei's house with Bao Niang.

Mrs. Wei wore a real red jacket and leaned obliquely on the pillow of the big kang, with a smile at the corner of her mouth, and her eyebrows were spring, like a peony flower in full bloom, with a charming laziness in Yongrong.

Liu Mei'er and Wei Shiying arrived earlier than her, and stood sideways in front of the kang with their hands down.

Gu Xiyan hurriedly stepped forward to salute Mrs. Wei, and then saluted the two girls Liu and Wei, and the two girls returned the salute, and Qin Niang over there made tea again, and for a while, the house was a little chaotic.

Mrs. Wei took a symbolic sip of the teacup and said, "You three sisters go down and prepare, and then you will go to Yu Nian Pavilion to light that everlasting lamp on my behalf." ”

Everyone was surprised.

Seeing that it was almost time to hold the lamp, the Chinese New Year's Eve meal was almost done, why did they suddenly ask them to go to the Yu Nian Pavilion on behalf of Mrs. Wei?

Seeing this, Mrs. Wei snorted coldly and said: "Mrs. Xu said that this year, the war in Yandi has started again, and the lives have been devastated...... Go and see it for me! ”

I lit the floor lamp for Maosheng, but Mrs. Wei didn't go!

After she carefully thought about the intricate relationship between the ladies of the Yanguo Mansion. Gu Xiyan was a little apprehensive about her behavior.

But no matter what, she was willing to go. Mao Sheng didn't come back for the New Year, and there was no detailed news coming, so she was really worried about him.

It's better to be able to get rid of the anxiety in one way than to do nothing.

Gu Xiyan, Liu Mei'er, and Wei Shiying all bowed to Mrs. Wei in response, and the three of them returned to the house to freshen up.

Although Liu Mei'er is older than Gu Xiyan, in Gu Xiyan's heart, she is younger than herself, so she will unconsciously let her in everything and everywhere. It's the same this time. The two lived in the same house. Gu Xiyan asked Liu Mei'er to take a bath first. But when Gu Xiyan had just sat down in the tall pine barrel, Liu Mei'er rushed in like the wind wearing a thin obscene clothes: "Sister Gu, I don't want to ask you for a cloak...... You lend it to me to wear today, and I'll pay you back tomorrow......"

Why do you say cloak again?

Seeing that Gu Xiyan didn't reply to her immediately, Liu Mei'er waved her hand like a deflated ball, and said in a solemn manner: "Forget it." Just when I didn't say it! ”

Gu Xiyan said with a smile: "For the sake of this cloak, our two sisters made Mrs. unhappy for no reason, and you didn't say anything about it, and you didn't know how to rush in indiscriminately and startled me!" Tell me why you suddenly changed your mind again. ”

Liu Mei'er showed a depressed expression: "I saw in the window just now that Wei Shiying had already freshened up and went to say goodbye to my aunt." It turned out that my aunt had made her a cloak that was exactly the same as mine, and even the color was the same. ”

Gu Xiyan was angry. There was a faint uneasiness in my heart. But she still comforted Liu Mei'er and said: "Think about it, the price of the silk used for the cloak is more than gold, where is it so easy to find two of the same...... Maybe it's because I'm shorter. Curry only had the right dark green color, so he made it for me. Don't be angry. We'll just change it quietly! ”

Liu Mei'er smiled wryly and said, "I'm not ...... for anything else."

"I know, I know," Gu Xiyan said with a smile, "Are you unconvinced that you wear the same cloak as Wei Shiying!" You go out quickly, I'm going to take a shower, you can talk to me again. You can't comb your hair, I can't take a bath, and if my aunt finds out, we'll be disciplined again...... Do you want to be seen as a joke by Wei Shiying in the thirties of the Chinese New Year's Eve! ”

followed and rushed over, Qiu Gui, who was still holding a comb in his hand, covered his mouth and smiled on the side.

The two put on new clothes, and each combed a ring bun representing the unmarried girl, and went out to invite Mrs. Wei.

Wei Shiying arrived earlier than them. He was already wearing a cloak and was waiting for them.

The two stepped forward to salute Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei looked at the three little girls in front of her with a smile.

Liu Meier is graceful and luxurious. Wei Shiying is gentle and delicate, and Gu Xiyan is sweet and quiet.

She nodded with satisfaction: "Wait for the Huixian Assembly to send someone to pick you up." Have fun! ”

The three girls bent their knees to salute Mrs. Wei, and went out with their respective maidservants, standing in front of the shadow wall and waiting.

Liu Mei'er looked light, took Gu Xiyan's cloak from Duan Yingluo's hand and draped it on her body. Gu Xiyan forced a smile and put on Liu Mei'er's cloak.

When Liu Meier was given a cloak to wear, the mule cart of Xianji Courtyard came. The chariot was driven by a woman about forty years old, tall and stout, and moved the footstool very neatly, Liu Meier took the lead, and the three mermaids got into the carriage in a row, and Qiu Gui rewarded the woman.

When she got on the car, Gu Xiyan noticed that the woman who was driving the car was stunned for a while when she saw Wei Shiying.

When I arrived at Xianji Temple, it was still early. Different from the desertion of Huaiyuan, the Xianji courtyard is full of lights and laughter. As soon as the three of them arrived, a woman came up and lifted the curtain for them, and someone else went into the house to report. When they got off the station, they were greeted by a gorgeously dressed grandmother: "Three girls, please come with me." ”

Liu Mei'er bowed to the grandmother and shouted "Mama Qian".

Wei Shiying was very alert, and when she saw this, she immediately called out to Mama Qian and saluted her.

Gu Xiyan is embarrassed, he is also a local person who has been in society, and when it comes to being smart, he has not yet done Wei Shiying. She hurriedly followed suit.

Mama Qian glanced at Wei Shiying a few times, and then seemed to remember that Mrs. Wei often found some relatives to accompany her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but have a hint of sarcastic smile, and nodded slightly towards the three girls, which was considered a return gift.

Gu Xiyan thought about it, looking at it like this, she should also be the proud celebrity next to Mrs. Xu.

Sure enough, along the way, people bent their knees to Mama Qian from time to time on the road.
