Halfway through the play, everyone watched it very attentively. Jin Chao was not interested in the play, she picked up the pastry on the side and ate it, went out in a hurry, and didn't have time to eat anything, but now she was hungry. I thought that this pastry tasted good, and I ate a lot of it, and the pastry was a little dry, Jin Chao picked up the blue and white teacup on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat, not daring to move too much for fear of disturbing others to watch the play.

After putting down the teacup, Jin Chao took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and put it on the coffee table casually. turned her head sideways and saw a person looking at her, with a smile on his eyebrows, it was Gu Jinhua. She also smiled back, a little embarrassed, and her gobbling up appearance was also looked at by others.

After the play is finished, it's time to set up the table. Gu Jinchao saw his father at this time, and together with Gu Erye and Gu Wuye, the three brothers talked and laughed, and there was nothing to worry about. After my father came over, I first recruited Aunt Song over, and whispered a few words to her, both of them laughed, my father was handsome, and Aunt Song was delicate, but they were really a pair of beautiful people.

Aunt Song took out a brocade and wiped the hoarfrost on her father's eyebrows, and her father looked down at her and let her wipe it.

Gu Lian and Gu Lan sat together, and said, "Your mother is so good to your father......"

The full house of female dependents was silent for a while, and Gu Jinchao was talking to Gu Jinhua, and his voice faded. Gu Lian said the wrong thing, but Gu Lan had to come down: "...... It was my biological mother, Aunt Song, who stayed at home due to illness and did not come. ”

Gu Lian stuck out her tongue indifferently: "It's me who read it wrong!" ”

Everyone's attitude towards Gu Lan is different, there is such a favored aunt's biological mother, and there is a sick and weak mother, maybe one day she will turn over and become a concubine......

The Gu family banquet is very luxurious, hot dishes, cold dishes, hot pots, fruit plates, and pastries are slowly served by the girl's mother-in-law, like flowing water. After eating these, there were also frozen pears and dried fruits, but Jin Chao had no appetite because he ate too many pastries, so he gave up after eating some hot dishes and fruit plates.

After the table, the old men naturally had other things to discuss, and the lady asked the ladies to go to Hengxian Ju, where the garden was full of plum blossoms and bloomed very well. It had only snowed the night before, and the sky was blue and empty, so it was fun to set a table in the yard.

Mrs. Tai asked her to bring a horse crane and dice to play, but she went back first. Gu Jinhua and several visiting wives, as well as Gu Jinxiao's wife, and the eldest and youngest grandmothers shared the table and played horse hanging, and the second lady took a group of their unmarried girls to be female celebrities and talk about tricks.

Gu Jinchao sat in the corner, holding a small stretch and embroidering butterflies casually, embroidering slowly with stitches and threads, and he was not in a hurry.

Before she finished embroidering a butterfly, she heard Gu Lian's voice: "Sister Lan, your lotus embroidery is so beautiful!" Pale pink and white, just like the real thing! The dragonflies parked on it are also beautiful, and the wings are transparent......"

Gu Lan smiled embarrassedly: "It's just that I learned it casually from my mother, and my sister has won the award." ”

Gu Lian smiled: "Don't be embarrassed, I'll let my mother see if the embroidery is very good...... "Take the embroidery bandage to show the second lady, the second lady is also amazed, and everyone gathered around to see it for a while, and they all applauded.

Gu Lan pulled the slippery hair to his cheeks, pursed his lips and couldn't stop smiling: "My embroidery art is nothing, Master Xue, who taught the eldest sister embroidery, was once a disciple of the Ji family of the Su embroidery family, and the Wanxiu Pavilion in Yanjing asked for three hundred taels of silver, but Master Xue didn't go......

When Mo Xue heard this, her hands clenched. Looking at Gu Jinchao, he was still silent, embroidering his butterfly unhurriedly.

These two young ladies are too scheming, knowing that although the eldest lady is under Master Xue, her embroidery is clumsy, and she has to talk about this, and she clearly wants to make the eldest lady ugly!

Since Gu Lan said this, everyone naturally wanted to give her face, so the second lady moved her eyes to Gu Jinchao and said with a smile: "I don't know what patterns we embroidered with my sister, show it to us, so open your eyes!" ”

Gu Jinchao stood up unhurriedly and saluted: "But let the second aunt be disappointed, although Jinchao learned from Master Xue, the embroidery skills he learned are less than one-thousandth of the master's, and he is afraid of tarnishing Master Xue's reputation, so he won't take it out to show his ugliness." ”

Gu Lan then explained: "It's my negligence, although our eldest sister is not good at embroidery, she is good at piano and chess. Maybe it's because I spend a lot of time on this, and I don't practice embroidery often, so I'm a little rusty......" sounds like a defense for her.

Gu Lian snorted: "What is the use of a woman in the boudoir, what is the use of studying piano and chess, and she is not the dusty girl of Yangzhou Fireworks Willow Lane, it is only serious to learn the female red housekeeper!" I see, it is precisely because of this that no one in the lobby sister came to the door to propose! ”

Hearing this, the second lady also had to reprimand her: "It's too much to talk about!" You haven't reached the end yet, what a dusty woman, where did you hear about it! ”

Gu Lian was rarely scolded by her mother, and looked at Gu Jinchao angrily and said, "That's the case, she also beat their girls stupidly!" Who dares to marry her back and be a lady! ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but Gu Jinchao asked with a smile: "Sister Pity, you said that I beat my girl stupidly, who told you?" ”

Gu Lian was simple-minded, and he couldn't hide things at all, so he immediately said, "Sister Lan told me!" ”

"Then did she tell you why I hit this girl?" Gu Jinchao approached step by step, this Gu Lan, gossip everywhere ruined her reputation, she just provoked Gu Pian and she endured it, and when she mentioned the matter of Liuxiang, she couldn't bear it.

She ...... She wants to save her sick brother, you don't allow her to save ......" Gu Lian actually didn't hear it clearly, and she was hesitant to say it.

"Then I tell you, her brother is not sick, but owes a large sum of money to the gambling house, and his leg has been broken because he cannot pay the debt. My girl, when she came back, didn't show that I needed money, but directly stole the contents of my makeup, and I didn't even have time to beat her, and she scared herself crazy. Can I be blamed for this? Gu Jinchao smiled and said, "Sister Pity, you have to be careful when you listen to others." ”

"That'...... Then you shouldn't have driven her out of the house......" Gu Lian still wanted to argue.

Gu Jinchao didn't want to talk to her anymore, how could Miss Yan, who had never experienced the world, talk and act so carelessly.

"If you forgive everyone who stole something, you say, will they be even worse next time? Every girl has learned something, isn't the whole family emptied in an instant? I drove her away without hurting her, and I have done my duty. ”

"It's Sister Lan'er......" Jin Chao smiled, "Next time, don't be careless, you will miscommunicate your sister's deeds, so it seems that I don't know how much of the things outside were told by you." Although you don't like me very much, but I'm your sister-in-law, my father's face, you don't think about me, you have to think about my father, don't you say? ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Gu Lan for a while, Gu Lan's face was ugly, Gu Jinchao turned a thousand pounds in a few words, not only brushing off the responsibility, but also wanting to push the original things on her head! Did she use her own misinformation for what she had done, there was nothing good in the first place!

She bit her lower lip and looked at Gu Jinchao, and her voice was low: "Is my sister wrong...... My sister just listened to what people said. It's just that I've always liked the eldest sister, how could I mispass on the things next to you, I just casually said a few words to Sister Pian...... Don't worry about it, I ...... I'll pay you for it! Don't take it to heart! "He looks very weak and pitiful.

The second lady didn't want to cause any unpleasantness on this New Year's Day, so she played a round: "Since it is unintentional, Sister Chao should also forgive Sister Lan, after all, they are two sisters." I think Sister Chao's embroidery is good, and you are good at piano, and your personality is also a complementary ......."

Jin Chao sat down and responded with a smile: "Second Aunt Xie praised us, we are sisters, and there is no mustard." ”

Although Gu Lan has regained some face, she has always lost her reputation for liking to chew the root of her tongue, and everyone is a little embarrassed when they look at her. Aunt Song was playing tags with the fifth lady and others, and she didn't know the scene here. Gu Lan secretly made a mistake in her heart, how did she know that Gu Lian was so uncontrollable......

However, Gu Jinchao responded to the words in moderation, and did not chase after him, although he was angry, he did not have a seizure, he was still calm when he sat down, and the second lady who watched it understood a little more in her heart. The rumors outside must be specially amplified by someone with a heart......

No wonder she is angry, if she is slandered, I am afraid that she will be even more angry.

Gu Lian didn't know that she was in trouble, so she pouted: "Even if the girl's incident has nothing to do with her...... It's true that she has poor embroidery. ”

"Sister Pian'er said that who is a bad embroiderer?" A smiling voice sounded, and I saw the three of them stepping into the center of the horizontal oblique, but it was Gu Jinxiao, the eldest son of the Gu family, who spoke.

Gu Lian jumped up and greeted them: "Is the eldest brother here?" Didn't you go racing outside the city? ”

Gu Jinxiao said: "Don't mention it, how could my father allow us to go horse racing outside the city." I wanted to come to Hengxiju to play chess, but I didn't expect you to be here. ”

Gu Lian nodded and said, "...... We were talking about embroidery just now, and the embroidery of the lobby sister doesn't seem to be good! ”

Ye Quan said casually: "I think her embroidery is not bad." ”

Gu Lian was a little curious: "My cousin has seen the female celebrity of the lobby sister?" ”

He slowly took out a pale cyan brocade from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "This brocade is your lobby sister's, the orchid on it is blue and blue, lifelike, and there is a poem embroidered with a small seal next to it." Gu Jinchao's hand lightly touched the sleeve of his shirt, and then he remembered that his Jinpai fell in the place where he was watching the play just now, how did it get into the hands of Changxing Hou Shizi! He took it out in such a grand way!

The second lady's expression changed suddenly, and she still had a smile on her face: "I'll see how good it is." ”

The handkerchief was handed to her, with a faint scent of orchids, which she had smelled on Jin Chao.

Jin Chao recently raised orchids in the room, not only the room was full of orchids, but even she was contaminated.
