Chapter 142: Moves
The sixth girl in the second room, Hua Rui, and her mother, Aunt Tong, have a very low sense of existence.
Aunt Tong said that she was sick and had not been out of Hongxun Hospital for many years.
Hua Rui is still like that, as if she is afraid of stepping on ants when she walks.
But such a mother and daughter really don't have their own minds? Not necessarily!
When she returned to the house, Hua Jin saw that Lingxiang was helping her pack up her clothes and jewelry, and this time she came back from Changyi, and she got a lot of new ones.
Seeing her come back, she stepped forward with a smile, "Fifth girl, this time Princess Su returns to her hometown, we should also get ready." Although Lingxiang doesn't often follow her in and out, everything in the room is well organized, and she is thoughtful and reassuring.
Hua Jin also understood Lingxiang's prompt, but she had her own plans for the future, and she didn't want to show it in front of her princess sister.
But she couldn't hurt Lingxiang's kindness, and just said softly at this time: "Fate will have a destiny, and we will do our duty." ”
Ling Xiang listened to her girl's words, and remembered what she heard Yingxiang, who was assigned to the third room, say: The third lady has already prepared, and this time she will use the princess to return to the house to find a good marriage for the third girl.
Lingxiang thought that the fifth girl didn't have her own mother to take care of her, and her maid usually took care of her a lot, so she always had to do something within her ability.
Now that I heard the fifth girl say such things at a young age, my heart was a little sour, and at the same time, I couldn't help but admire her behavior even more!
Oh, yes! Because fate will have a destiny, she hopes that the five girls can live a comfortable and happy life in the future!
The most lively thing this night is the three-room Qingfeng Garden.
As soon as the third lady Liu returned to the room, she asked her subordinates to call her eldest daughter, Hua Fei, into the inner room, and instructed her henchmen to guard the door.
She beckoned Hua Fei to her side, and took out a red lacquer carved lotus-patterned wooden box with a small lock hanging from the six-door tall cabinet in the room.
"Mother, what's in here?"
Liu patted the wooden box mysteriously with his well-maintained hand, "This holds your future." ”
"Future?" Hua Fei was puzzled.
"Isn't it?" Liu's eyebrows fluttered and he opened the small lock with the key.
Hua Fei looked over curiously, and the moment the wooden box was opened, she couldn't open her eyes.
She squinted and saw the three sets of red gold heads in the box blooming with dazzling gilt brilliance.
Liu smiled proudly, "These three sets of jewelry were designed and created by the master of Cuilou who paid a lot of money a year ago, and they are all popular styles in Beijing today. ”
"Mother, it's ...... you make so much jewelry"
Liu Shi poked a finger on Hua Fei's forehead, "Why did my mother give birth to you as a stupid goose when she was so smart...... Your eldest sister princess is going home to wake up soon, and my mother won't let you shine! Now that you are in the boudoir, if you are in the eyes of your eldest sister, you don't have to worry about your mother like this. ”
Hua Fei smiled slyly, "Mother, eldest aunt, she just revealed the news that the eldest sister is coming, you started preparing years ago, this ability to listen to the news is really extraordinary!" ”
"You girl, don't put your cleverness on this useless thing." She wanted to stretch out her finger to poke Hua Fei's forehead again, but Hua Fei deftly dodged it.
Liu Shi took out a butterfly hairpin with red gold and rubies from the box, "Show off the many skills you usually learn in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”
He put the fluttering wings and the jewel-shining hairpin on Hua Fei's head, and compared it and said, "My daughter is really beautiful." Na Zhan Hairpin said solemnly: "The most important thing is to show the true strength of our house, and my mother can give us a lot of dowry." ”
"Got it, Mother." Hua Fei was afraid that she would be verbose again, so she could only nod her head, "My daughter is good at behaving." ”
Only then did Liu relax his heart.
In the west courtyard of Qingfeng Yuan lives Aunt Zhao, the biological mother of three rooms and four girls.
Because the relationship between the third master Zhang Yuhong and the third lady Liu has always been very good, Aunt Zhao feels that she is a superfluous person in this courtyard. She is also a person with a weak sense of existence like Aunt Tong.
It's just that today's Aunt Zhao's heart, which has been silent for many years, seems to be about to move, and she, like the Liu family, called Huacai to her cross-courtyard.
On weekdays, Hua Cai rarely comes to Qingfeng Yuan's cross-hospital, and even if she wants to come, Aunt Zhao will say that she is not sick.
Which mother doesn't want to be close to her daughter, but she feels that her humble background will only make Huacai have no good future.
Hua Cai entered the main house of Aunt Zhao across the courtyard, and saw that the big kang was full of cages and boxes.
"Mother!" Hua Cai happily walked to Aunt Zhao's side, "Are you feeling better?" ”
Although Aunt Zhao is not young, she has a beautiful appearance, and she has a pair of good skin, delicate porcelain white, and some morbid beauty.
"Call Auntie!" Aunt Zhao glanced at Huacai with some disgust, and saw that she came by herself, so she didn't say anything more.
"Mother!" Hua Cai called out affectionately again, and pulled her sleeve like a coquettish child, "Cai'er hasn't seen her mother for several days." ”
Aunt Zhao heard her say this, seeing her behave like this, even her heart was about to melt, where would she be willing to let her set up any rules.
Call Niang Niang, call Niang, there is no one else here, Aunt Zhao lowered her eyes and blinked, controlling the tears that were about to be shed, "Cai'er, you see these are the private items that my mother has saved over the years." She pointed to something spread out on a kang.
Hua Cai picked up a small carved silk jacket from an open cage, "Mother, this dress is so beautiful, why haven't I seen you wear it?" ”
"This is what your grandmother gave me when my mother lifted my aunt, and I only went on once, so I should be able to exchange a lot of silver." After speaking, he opened a wooden box painted with red lacquer and gold, "There are also these pieces of red gold jewelry, all of which are styles from more than ten years ago, you can melt them and then make some of the latest styles." ”
Hua Cai listened and hurriedly put down the carved silk jacket in his hand, "Mother, what are you going to do?" ”
Aunt Zhao sighed lightly, "Mother has nothing to do for you, that's all." This time your big sister is here, you have to seize the opportunity to perform well. She covered the wooden box containing the red gold jewelry, and wrapped it in a cloth wrapper with the carved silk jacket, "You take the carved silk jacket as a small one, and get the silver money to make jewelry." ”
"I don't want it." Hua Cai stood up anxiously, "The child is not short of clothes and jewelry. ”
Seeing that she was so distracted, Aunt Zhao sighed and poked her forehead with her fingers, "You fool!" Usually Mrs. treats you well, but you can see the intimacy at this critical moment. My mother heard that she had started to prepare for your third sister before the Chinese New Year, not to mention the three sets of red gold heads, and the clothes of the best materials were made as many as ten sets. Although my mother's ability is limited, I can't let you be compared too much. "The hearts of parents all over the world are like this, pitiful and respectable.
