【80】Water Pumice Stone (1) (Page 1/1)

The back garden of the General's West Mansion is only separated from the front hall by a lake, and the covered bridge over the lake is made of fine sunken wood.

Different from the front hall gathered in groups of broad praises, here are all the delicate women of the golden hairpin and green daisy, or two or three together, or three or five in groups, served by the maid to walk slowly in the garden, one by one step to give birth to lotus, although it is autumn, the courtyard is full of endless spring charm, and the green in this courtyard is particularly comfortable.

Jiang Shi, the wife of Xiwan, was sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake and chatting with several ladies who also had a fate.

However, Xijiangyue didn't have half the consciousness of the protagonist of today's banquet, and slightly exchanged greetings with the ladies and ladies who came to congratulate her on returning from praying for the family, so she got up and found a cool place behind the rockery that few people went to, and sat quietly and pranayama.

"Look, that's the daughter of the household servant who can let our current saint personally order the imperial doctor in the palace to take a look, and leave Zishu!" After practicing martial arts, Xi Jiangyue, whose ear power has become better and better, heard the girl who didn't know which family in the distance said this sourly, and suddenly, the young ladies who were still quiet around them instantly whispered.

Since ancient times, where there are many women, there are more rights and wrongs.

Xijiang Moon is still in the ancient well, and the words heard in his left ear are thrown out of his right ear, unwilling to easily slack off for a moment of practice.

Dressed in an azure dress, covered with silver silk and white satin to decorate the same color of the cloak, Li Zishu glanced at the reactions on the faces of the ladies and ladies around her, and felt proud in her heart.

This plain dress, coupled with a delicate face from Li Zixu, not only does it not look shabby among this group of noble ladies in the imperial capital, but it has a sense of freshness, which makes people feel bright.

In the Pavilion in the heart of the lake, many ladies who are accustomed to seeing people are more delicate than flowers, and they also secretly praised in their hearts that they are good at dressing up.

"The little woman has left Zishu and seen all the ladies." Lizi Shu leaned over and saluted.

Suddenly, a breeze blew, blowing up her dress, which made her shave her shoulders and waist, which was very moving.

The maid standing on the side hurriedly reached out to help her young lady, for fear that she would be blown down by the breeze.

"I have been away with my husband for many years, and when I first returned to the imperial capital, I met such an outstanding and lovely person." Jiang Shi, the third aunt of Xijiangyue, looked at Li Zishu with a kind smile on her face, "I don't know which young lady you are." ”

Lizizhi, who curtsied on her knees, trembled a little under her skirt, but fortunately she was supported by the maid around her, so as not to fall and lose her ugliness, she still had a sweet smile on her face, and replied warmly: "Mrs. Huixi, the little girl's father is the household servant Liqingxuan, and the little woman's brother is named Lizizhi." ”

"It turned out to be a young lady who left the Lang family, born with such a national color, and such a righteous brother, no wonder even today's saint has to personally order the imperial doctor to diagnose your pulse." Jiang Shi took a sip of tea, looked at the woman in front of him and smiled, as if he didn't hear the swagger in her words.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Seeing that the other party still hadn't let himself get up, Lizi Shu coughed lightly.

Seeing this, Jiang Shi seemed to suddenly remember something, so he said: "Look at my age, my memory is not very good, Miss Li's body has not yet healed, and after this ceremony, my body will definitely not be able to bear it, so get up quickly." ”

"Thank you, Mrs. See." Li Zishu, who had cursed the woman in front of him thousands of times in his heart, still had a smile on his face, "It's just that Zishu hasn't seen Sister Xi all the way." ”

"Yue'er has had a playmate named Haoyue since she was a child, and she will come over today, and Yue'er will go to pick her up." Jiang's kind smile on her face was like a luxurious pearl on her head, and she was noble and generous.

"Speaking of Miss Haoyue, it reminds Zi Shu of the day when Zi Shu Fang arrived in the imperial capital, because she was frightened and restless, so she had a little quarrel with Miss Haoyue due to a misunderstanding, and I didn't want to be unintentionally implicated in Sister Xi......" The expression on Zi Shu's face turned sad in an instant, and the brocade in his hand had already wiped the corners of his eyes, "It's all the gangs of gangsters in Qiyun Mountain, which made Zi Shu and Sister Xi have a disagreement, Zi Shu came to the door today and came to make amends." ”

Just a few words, half a tear, Li Zishu not only shirked the events of the day, but also set up a virtuous appearance of knowledge, gentleness and kindness.

In the pavilion in the center of the lake, the ladies who have been up and down in the house for a long time, even if they don't leave the house on weekdays, but the daily events in the imperial capital have never escaped their eyes and ears.

"If it's really a misunderstanding and quarrel between my daughter's family, it's good to leave Miss Li, my family Yue'er has been free and easy since she was a child, and she will not be embarrassed by such a trivial matter." Jiang Shi smiled, but he didn't break it, and with just a few words in his mouth, he had already refuted the self-regarded smart Li Zi into speechlessness, "Miss Li is not wrong, so there is no need to make amends." ”

When the ladies in the pavilion in the middle of the lake heard this, they only smiled lightly, but the voices of discussion gradually rose among the ladies and maids around the pavilion.

Seeing this, Li Zishu looked at the well-maintained Mrs. Jiang of the Xi family in front of her, and secretly scolded the old witch in her heart, but she didn't want her to detain the name of being a thief with a weak heart on herself with a casual word.

"What Mrs. West said is very true." Even though he was already angry in his heart, because he wanted to establish a virtuous name in the imperial capital, he forcibly suppressed the resentment in his heart, and changed the topic with a smile on his face, "Ladies, Zishu is also here to congratulate Sister Xi on her return with blessings. ”

"When Zishu first came to the imperial capital, he was not as familiar with jewelry and clothing as the ladies and sisters outside the pavilion, so he only brought some ordinary gadgets, and I hope that Mrs. Xi and Sister Xi will not be disgusted." After leaving Zizi's words, he opened the brocade box held by the maid next to him, and his face seemed to be complacent when he came.

I saw that two black stones of different shapes were lying quietly in the brocade box, and the stones were full of connected holes like beehives.

The young ladies who were still enjoying the scenery outside the pavilion either poked their heads out or stepped forward slowly, all wanting to see what kind of gifts this woman who came from a small place but could alarm the saints of today.

"There are even people who bring roadside stones to give away!" Among the people outside the pavilion, the young lady who didn't know which one opened her mouth first, and instantly stirred up a thousand waves with one stone.

"And the quality of these two stones is too ugly!"

"That's it, where is this gift-giving, this is clearly scary!"

“……”

Li Zishu didn't hear the reaction of the ladies around him, and only bowed down to the Jiang family in the pavilion, and then directly threw the two stones in the brocade box into the lake.

The double stones entered the water, and the splash had not yet splashed, but the young ladies by the lake were already frightened.

Li Zishu took in the reactions of the many young ladies and maids who were still mocking her, and her heart was indescribably refreshing, and her voice became sweeter and sweeter, "These two stones, called water pumice stones, as the name suggests, are stones that can float in the water. ”
