Chapter 121: The Nature of the Six Niangs
Out of the fifth room, the second lady and the third lady found an excuse to say goodbye and go first, and You invited the eldest lady to the fourth room: "On the day of the prince's birthday, Qi Niang wants to enter the palace to meet her, this is the first time for her, she doesn't understand anything, and she has to ask the sister-in-law to bother to give advice." ”
The eldest lady nodded: "I also just received the news, it is said that the queen personally sent someone to tell her father?" It seems that the things on the banks of the Qujiang River have also been transmitted to the palace. ”
You knew that it was impossible for the eldest lady not to know that the eldest princess of Jiyang took Ning Shaobi into the palace today, and the eldest lady said this, but because the big house and the fourth room had a good relationship, she was helping the round field, thinking of the 'girl' where she was ignorant, You was angry and hateful, glared at Zhuo Zhaojie, and reluctantly replied: "Where does she know something?" It's all nonsense from outside, but she thinks it's true. ”
"It's also very good that there is a talented 'girl' in our house." The eldest lady smiled slightly and said, "Now Qi Niang's reputation can be compared with Princess Changle's love 'girl', that Su family's little eight niangs are full of grace, I think only our seven niangs can suppress her." ”
"Sister-in-law don't want to praise her, the child's family can't help but praise, I just asked, when will she not be punished in front of her father? It's all homework that hasn't been done well! You sighed.
The eldest lady pursed her lips and smiled: "Father's requirements have always been strict, and there are Shen Xiaolangjun and our Balang as examples, Qi Niang is the little lady's family, where can Chenguang, who used to 'spend' in schoolwork, compare to her two brothers?" "There is a faint envy and melancholy in the eyes of the eldest lady, the heirs of the big house are too thin, a total of two concubines have died young, and now the only remaining Zhuo Zhiyi has not come out so far, and the 'temperament' is still so cowardly, although she is still fighting with the Shen family, but the eldest lady is really not optimistic about the big house in her heart, even if Zhuo Zhiyi is a son-in-law, with his 'temperament' is really not like being able to support the affairs of a house.
In contrast, even if the two sons-in-law of the fourth room are not very prominent characters, they can be regarded as passable among the peers of the Zhuo family, especially Zhuo Zhaocui was raised by Min Pinghou himself, which is different from the grandson next to him, in fact, after Zhuo Zhiyi was born, as the first male heir of the big house, Min Pinghou also cared, but Zhuo Zhiyi's qualifications were too poor...... At that time, the eldest lady was also looking forward to having a biological son, and she didn't pay much attention to him, and she didn't want to come down for so many years.
The eldest lady is now competing with the Shen family, in addition to the grudges accumulated over the years, it is more for Zhuo Zhao's 'Yan' consideration, the big house is thin, and Zhuo Zhiyi has no ability, she hopes that the fourth room will be able to help in the future - the fifth room has an accident now, and the fourth room's hope is a little bigger after all.
The two of them were talking while thinking about it, the fourth room was next to the fifth room, and they also arrived at the 'door', and went in to sit down in the Nianci Hall. ”
"It's not the outer chamber of Yining Fang?" The eldest lady smiled contemptuously and said, "Haven't you been together for two years?" Before, my father and Shen said that the fifth brother was not allowed to take her into the 'door', and the pressure over there has always been a peace, so the fifth brother and sister have endured it for Jiuniang, this will be pregnant, or a male fetus, do not take this opportunity to ask to enter the 'door', is it to let the child be born as an 'illegal' child, or do you plan to send the child into the house to raise the fifth brother and sister, and it has nothing to do with her from now on? If so, then what has the outer room been doing with the fifth brother? Is it difficult to have true feelings? ”
You Shi frowned and said, "How can I listen to the fifth brother and sister this time to ......?"
"The Shen family kept talking to her, but over the years, the more Shen went towards her, the more estranged she and the fifth brother became, and now it was the Shen family who openly reprimanded the fifth brother on the front foot, and the fifth brother on the back foot ran back to the fifth room to find trouble with the fifth brother and sister." The eldest lady turned the bracelet on her wrist and said indifferently, "Jiuniang's affairs have been going on for a year, and they haven't gotten better, and the fifth brother doesn't care about his own flesh and bones at all...... Such a day, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to live it! The fifth brother and sister are just in the young 'spring', and Gao Xiang is still in office, so she should have planned early...... Anyway, let's just watch the excitement. ”
"In order to hire five brothers and sisters before, the Shen family invested a lot of money." You raised his eyebrows and said, "At that time, the fifth brother was only promoted, and he also had a reputation for studiousness, and Gao Xiangcai agreed, but soon after marriage, he was 'obsessed' with the one in Yiningfang...... I'm curious, the fifth brother and sister are really gone, what kind of stepfamily does the Shen family want to marry the fifth brother? ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both smiled a little gloatingly.
Zhuo Zhaojie heard this, so he said softly: "It turns out that the fifth aunt really has the intention of going?" I still think I got it wrong. ”
The eldest lady smiled and said, "That's right, she just wants to leave!" Didn't she see Aunt Shen be able to get up after she left? Today's fainting is probably also 'made' by herself, just to find an excuse to leave, otherwise why didn't Aunt Liu go to the Shen family, but found the big house? Why don't you borrow our hand to push her so she can go? ”
The fifth lady Gao is the young 'daughter' of the prime minister Gao Xianling, and she loves it very much, Shen asked Zhuo Fangya to marry her, and naturally it is also a lot of help for Zhuo Fangya, where did she think that the husband and wife were not in harmony, and now Gao can't bear to give birth to the idea of harmony - Gao is really gone, with Zhuo Fangya's reputation of now pampering the outer room and 'forced' to leave his wife, as well as his academic abandonment after indulging in 'obsession', 'female' and 'sex', who is not willing to give him his 'daughter' as a step-room!
The Shen family let Zhuo Fangya marry the Gao family, just to compete for the position of the prince, so that Zhuo Fangya can increase his weight in the heart of Minping Hou, and don't want Zhuo Fangya to snub and treat the Gao family and Zhuo Zhaobao badly.
Zhuo Zhaojie muttered: "I heard what the fifth aunt said, and the fifth uncle was too much for Jiuniang. ”
The eldest lady glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's not that we are talking about your fifth uncle behind our backs, he is a person who likes to be angry and doesn't like people, such as your fifth aunt, even Jiuniang is also your fifth uncle's flesh and blood, he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it, people he likes, such as the outer room, you see, if the outer room can really enter the 'door', regardless of the birth of boys and 'girls', maybe he will be a treasure......"
You Shi answered lukewarmly: "It's this reason!" So it's not easy for your fifth aunt all these years, and 'privately' speaking, it's too hard for her to endure it until now. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie heard You's words, he was slightly stunned, and realized that You's was using Zhuo Fangya to compare Ning Shaobi - but the words were not clear, although Zhuo Zhaojie felt that Zhuo Fangya had nothing to compare with Ning Shaobi, but it was not good to say this directly, so he had to pretend not to understand.
The eldest lady had also heard of Zhuo Zhaojie's 'sexuality' and indulgence, and she was afraid that her mother and daughter would quarrel when she was here, so she smiled and said: "Okay, anyway, it's all a matter of five rooms, isn't it Xiao Qiniang who is going to be busy now when Xiao Qiniang enters the palace?" ”
The topic shifted to entering the palace, and the eldest lady saw Zhuo Zhaojie sitting up straight when she heard this, so she comforted, "Don't worry, the queen is kind, and you are a 'daughter', even if there is a misdemeanor, please blame, the queen will not blame you." ”
Zhuo Zhaojie said obediently: "Yes." ”
The eldest lady 'handed over' the general path of the Changqiu Palace, although there was a palace person to guide her when she entered the palace, but it also prevented no one from going to the wrong place when there was no one around, as for the etiquette rules in the palace are not very strict, Zhuo Zhaojie listened attentively, compared to what Shen said, there is no difference, thinking that it is Shen who enters the palace in the end, if something really goes wrong, Shen will also fall into the responsibility of teaching no way, and there is still the eldest lady here, Shen will indeed not hide or nonsense on this.
After saying this, it was time to eat, You Shi looked at Chenguang and asked the eldest lady to eat in the fourth room: "I also know that the queen mother is tolerant and generous, but this child is the first time to enter the palace, and she has to be well consulted in all aspects, so why don't you use the meal and then guide her?" ”
The eldest lady said briskly: "You don't keep food, I'm going to come over when I go back, the queen is very tolerant of the little Langjun and the little lady from each family, but our Qiniang is now also a famous person in Chang'an City, and this can't help but dress up well when entering the palace." ”
"But I want my sister-in-law to help me with my palm." You Shi said with some embarrassment, "It's just that I haven't had time to make her new clothes in the past two days." ”
The eldest lady groaned and said: "It's nothing, I just asked someone to make a few sets of dresses for Liuniang, she hasn't had time to put on her body, the two children seem to be in shape, and she will ask someone to get two sets with Liuniang to call Qiniang to try." ”
You Shi hurriedly said: "How can you rob Liuniang?" ”
"It doesn't matter, Liuniang has always been sensible." The eldest lady smiled and said, "You can just go back and make up some pastries and snacks for her, that child is just greedy, and he doesn't care much about clothes." ”
You's looking for the eldest lady is actually for this, Zhuo Zhaojie has not had time to buy a large number of new clothes when he came to Chang'an, she has a lot of dresses when she was in Moling, but first, it may not be the same as the style that is popular in Chang'an, secondly, Zhuo Zhaojie is still growing at this age, last year's 'spring' outfit may not fit this year, these days, Zhuo Zhaojie is still wearing last autumn, Ban went north to Chang'an for her, especially calculated the size of a few sets, and for the sake of 'flowers' will You's people rush out of the work- In the past few days, Zhuo Zhaojie has been in and out, and was taken to the other courtyard by Minping Hou, and several clothes have been worn.
And although You scolded Zhuo Zhaojie and Ning Shaobi for not telling him if they had made an appointment in private, they also knew that this time when they entered the palace, whether it was the eldest princess of Jiyang or the queen, they would definitely look at Zhuo Zhaojie from the perspective of looking at the future Yongcheng Hou Shizi's 'woman', You hated the 'daughter' for being ignorant and willful, but now, he couldn't look at her and ignore her, and he couldn't say that this time he would do everything he could to dress up the 'girl' and strive to leave a good impression.
Listening to the words of the eldest lady, You Shi smiled and said, "What are these?" I'll send Liu Niang a set of jewelry when I go back. ”
"That's too heavy." The eldest lady shook her head, "It's all my own family, don't care about it like this." ”
The two of them decided the matter, You asked someone to set the meal, after using it, Zhuo 'Yu' Niang personally sent the dress, looking at her face 'color' is really not angry, the eldest lady and You discussed which dress should be worn on the day Zhuo Zhaojie entered the palace, hairstyle, jewelry, etc., she quietly sat down in front of Zhuo Zhaojie and said, "You want to enter the palace?" ”
"Exactly." Zhuo Zhaojie saw that Zhuo 'Jade' had an envious 'color' on her face, and said curiously, "Sixth sister, haven't you been there?" ”
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang pursed the corners of her lips and said, "You don't know that the queen is heavy and light? I'm not a person who matters, who has nothing to do, and took me into the palace to recruit the queen? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie sneered: "I'm talking too much." ”
"In the past, the eldest sister often followed her mother into the palace when she was there." Zhuo 'Yu' Niang squinted at her and said slowly, "At that time, the eldest sister often hid lychees in the palace, and the good Langjun was in her purse or sleeve, and brought them back to the house for us to ......."
Zhuo Zhaojie immediately understood what she meant because of the peach 'flower' cake, pursed her lips and smiled: "Sixth sister, don't worry, if I have this lychee good Langjun in front of me, I will definitely think of it." ”
Hearing this, Zhuo 'Yu' Niang's eyes lit up, she glanced at her affectionately, and said softly: "Qi Niang is really understanding...... In fact, the eldest sister used to bring miscellaneous plum cakes, lychee sweet dew cakes, frosting 'jade' bees, fragrant 'medicine' grapes, jujube rings, pear 'meat'......"
She said two things, Zhuo Zhaojie was still smiling, listening carefully, speaking of three or four things, Zhuo Zhaojie's face was embarrassed, and when it came to five or six things, Zhuo Zhaojie's face was 'pale'......
It's just that Zhuo 'Yu' Niang mentioned dim sum and danced with her eyebrows, not caring about her face 'color' at all, and gushing: "Licorice 'flower', ginger and plum, plum 'meat' cake, water red ginger, Tianling red rose cake, Qianguang Nafu cake, Liuqian white 'jade' cake, condensing soft gold cake, Liuzhu treasure cake, Fu Yu Yu Lake cake, wind dance lotus leaf cake, ......"
Zhuo Zhaojie's face was blue and red for a long time, and then he carefully pulled Zhuo Zhaojie's sleeve and whispered: "Sixth sister...... You...... You still say, what two things you don't like to eat? ”
"I love them all!" Zhuo 'Yu' Niang's eyes were shining, and she said quietly, "Good Qi Niang, you see, I specially brought you a few purses, so as not to get your 'dirty'!" ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and showed a stack of at least seven or eight purses that were more than twice as large as ordinary in his sleeves, with fine stitches and 'fine' cuteness, Zhuo Zhao was stunned, and asked sneeringly: "Is it ...... Did you just do it? ”
"How is that possible?" Zhuo 'Yu' Niang squinted happily and said, "It's been done a long time ago...... Now that the peach 'flower' cake is almost gone, isn't there still a lotus 'flower' cake next? I'll make it for you to go to your aunt's house and other people who have good cooks, don't worry, there's a layer of oiled paper in it, and I don't want to 'get your skirt' dirty!" ”
".................." Zhuo Zhaojie admired this sixth sister so much!
