Chapter 4 Pick-up

In the room, Chu Peijin had already gotten up when they entered the courtyard, and now she was wearing a smoky purple flower-sprinkled cloud pleated skirt and was sitting in front of the dressing table combing her hair. She really didn't expect that the original owner would have a delicate and beautiful face - if it weren't for the yellowish complexion that looked a little malnourished, she should be considered a beauty, right?

Her fingertips gently touched the delicate skin, and the touch made her heart move slightly, and then she remembered the original owner's immutable habit of getting up every morning, isn't it?

The doubts in Chu Peijin's heart became even stronger!

Gently caressing the smooth green silk, her eyes swept over the hairpins she had just picked off on the dressing table. a sterling silver filigree Ruyi plum hairpin, decorated with a few rubies the size of mung beans; A green magnolia hairpin, and a wooden double-dancing butterfly hairpin! In my memory, these are the remnants of the other sisters after they have picked them. Mrs. Xia, the mother of this body, said that she is a big sister, and she should let her sisters do more in everything. Therefore, when she distributes things, she is always the last one to take them, and no one cares whether she likes it or not.

Thinking of the memories of these predecessors, Chu Peijin forgot to pull up her hair for a while, so what everyone saw when they came in was a lazy beauty picture of Ying Ying sitting on an embroidered stool.

A small face that is still immature is embedded with a pair of large and bright eyes, perhaps because he has just woken up, those eyes are clear and reveal a faint laziness, but it makes people feel as if it should be a good time to wake up in the morning, but forget that it is noon...... The black hair of the waterfall was naturally loose at the back of the head, hanging down like silk, like the fine silk and satin......

Xia Yixue and Xia Qingluan were both stunned, they never expected Chu Peijin to look like this now! Although her face looks a little yellow, it is clearly a little malnourished, but it is indeed a little beauty embryo, if the body grows......

But Chu Peixuan didn't care as if she had seen too much. I saw her walking quickly to Chu Peijin with a smile, and pretended to be annoyed: "Big sister is getting lazy and lazy!" We've all gone to see my grandmother today, but you're fine, it's almost noon and you're still getting your makeup! ”

Chu Peijin was indeed asleep just now, so she still looked a little tired at this moment, which confirmed what Cuizhu said before.

"Sister Xuan has always been an early riser, and my sister can't compare. I wonder if my grandmother blames me? After saying this, Chu Peijin lowered her head, as if she was a little guilty and uneasy.

"Cousin Jin, don't worry."

Xia Yixue put aside the surprise in her heart and walked in front of her with a smile, raised her hand and gently brushed Chu Peijin's long hair, a look of envy flashed in her eyes, "Grandmother knows that you have always been in poor health, and she asked this morning, worried that you will not be able to adapt to the life in our house, so I asked Qingluan and me to come over to take a look." No, you've come to the right place! ”

Chu Peijin raised her head and looked at the second cousin in front of her slightly, with a standard melon seed face with curved willow eyebrows, and a pair of smiling eyes under her eyebrows as if she could speak. She was wearing a pale pink scattered emerald silk lily skirt, and a sachet embroidered with magnolia flowers was tied to her belt, exuding the fragrance of magnolia flowers, which was actually a unique temperament.

Chu Peijin responded politely: "Thank you second cousin for your concern!" ”

Xia Qingluan saw that Chu Peijin was not very enthusiastic about Xia Yixue, so she hurriedly asked with concern, "Didn't Cousin Jin sleep well last night?" ”

Xia Qingluan is one year younger than Chu Peijin and has just turned thirteen this year. Although she is a concubine, because she has a sister who enters the palace as a concubine, the only remaining daughter under the knees of the Xia family has doubled her value, and now she also enjoys the treatment of a concubine.

Chu Peijin knew a thing or two about Xia Qingwan, the eldest daughter of the Xia family who entered the palace as a concubine. In the memory of the original owner, Xia Qingwan was treated as a noble girl to focus on training when she was a child, hoping to marry high in the future to drive the lintel of the Xia family, but she never thought that she was quite competitive, and she was favored by the emperor in the draft two years ago, and was selected into the palace, and was sealed from the fourth grade of Wanyi! A while ago, because of the birth of the emperor's tenth son, he was promoted by the emperor again, and now he is a noble concubine of the third grade!

It is precisely because of this that Xia Qingluan, who is her sister-in-law and looks quite similar to Xia Qingwan, took the opportunity to also get the blue eyes of the eldest master of the Xia family, and in the past two years, she has been slowly taught by Xia Qingwan's upbringing, although she is only thirteen years old this year, she has taught a few different temperaments!

Meng Peijin smiled at her, stretched out her hand and gently squeezed her hand, and when she let go, her fingers intentionally or unintentionally stroked Xia Qingluan's blue sleeves with gold moire edges, and a look of envy flashed in her eyes, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I haven't changed my bed for many years, I just arrived at my grandmother's house last night, and I was a little excited, so that I didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, but it made everyone laugh!" ”

Seeing this, Xia Qingluan flashed a touch of pride in her heart! The Yunfei makeup satin woven flower butterfly silk yarn brocade dress she picked today is her favorite color and style, although this Chu Peijin rarely goes out of the house, this vision is good!

"Girl......" Cuizhu took a step forward cautiously, looking at Meng Peijin but didn't dare to say more.

Chu Peijin didn't seem to see her uneasiness, she only nodded lightly and said, "Come and help me comb my hair, don't tell my cousin to wait for a long time!" ”

"Yes, girl!"

"Second sister, you take your cousin and them to sit next to you first, I'll be here for a while!"

"Then you'd be faster!"

Chu Peixuan didn't like to be told by Chu Peijin to do things, when she was at home, Chu Peijin listened to her orders in everything, but now she only felt a little awkward in front of everyone, so she pursed her lips slightly when she turned around, and she never let anyone see it.

Cuizhi hurriedly went to serve tea.

It's just that before a few people can take a sip of hot tea, the sound of talking came from outside the courtyard again, and several people looked at each other stunned, but saw one of the several maids who had stayed outside the door before walking in quickly.

"The second girl, the fourth girl, the cousin girl, and the second aunt and grandmother are here!"

The second aunt and grandmother, that is, Chu Peijin and Chu Peixuan's mother-in-law, Xia Suyun.

Hearing that it was the Xia family, several girls in the house stood up and went outside to greet them, and Chu Peijin saw that Cuizhu had her hair done, so she also got up and followed. She was very curious, and she wanted to see with her own eyes the mother of the former master, who was now her own mother, who was sacred!

Out of the room, Chu Peijin saw Chu Peixuan shouting 'mother' and then rushing into a woman's arms like a milk swallow returning to the nest.
