Chapter 498: Beauty Album
The latest chapter of the noble girl's marriage
Even if she was unhappy in her heart, she could only personally send Su Xiyun and Mama Rong away after a cup of tea.
Of course, Su Lao was unwilling in her heart, and this unwillingness made her say to Su Xiyun at the moment of parting: "Xiyun." Remember to go early and come back early. ”
Su Xiyun heard this and didn't answer, and Mama Rong on the side smiled and said, "Please rest assured, xiǎojié went to Kunning Palace, and with Niangniang here, how could something happen to her?" Speaking of this, Mama Rong paused and said: "By the way, Niangniang asked the slave maid to take Xiǎojié into the palace this time, in preparation for her to live more in the palace, court etiquette, after all, she will be the royal daughter-in-law in the future, these are necessary to know." ”
"That's what Mama said. Said yes. The corner of Su Lao's mouth hung a smile that was even uglier than crying, and she felt embarrassed in her heart, but in front of Mama Rong, she couldn't say a word.
Mama Rong glanced at her with a smile. said lightly: "Old, then we will leave!" With that, she and Su Xiyun turned around and walked out of Chunhui Courtyard together, and walked towards the gate of Bofu together.
Su Lao stood in Chunhui's courtyard, watching the backs of the two of them go farther and farther, and the smile on her face became cold inch by inch.
"Go to the front yard and call the old man! Just say I have something important to look for him! Just go! ”
Listened to Su Lao's words. Mama Lin on the side hurriedly answered, and quickly went to the front yard to invite the eldest master.
After half a pillar of incense, Master Su hurriedly came to Chunhui Courtyard, and while walking into the house, he said quite puzzled: "Mother, what important thing do you have to call at this moment?" Did you know I'm busy? ...... children"
"Xiyun was called into the palace by the queen, and I don't know when I will be able to come back." With just one sentence, Su Lao successfully stopped Master Su's gushing complaints.
"What do you say? Xiyun went to the palace? Why? Master Su asked in surprise, at this time, he no longer said that he was busy.
Su Lao glanced at her and sighed: "I can see it, Xiyun doesn't want to go up to Baiyun Nunnery to call her mother down the mountain at all, but what she can say is that the queen mother let her live in the palace, which can be regarded as having the ability, and now, we can only find a way to get the old daughter-in-law down the mountain by ourselves." ”
When Master Su heard this, his face suddenly became difficult to look at.
"How can this girl be like this? If we don't take care of it. Will she be able to grow up so safely and smoothly? Now it's time to use her, how dare you! Old man Su said, slammed it on the table with his hand, and the teacup on top of it shook a few times and almost fell to the ground.
Su Lao glanced at him, and said with a faint expression: "It's useless to say anything now, let's hurry up and find a way!" The dowry matter could not be postponed any longer. ”
Since Mr. Su discussed it with his mother, he has always regarded the dowry prepared by his wife for Su Xiyun as his own property, and now he suddenly heard that Su Xiyun did not go to the mountain to ask his wife to come down, this is like a duck flying to his beak, how can he be willing?
"Mother, why don't we do it, and send someone up the mountain to snatch back those things in the hands of the old daughter-in-law? Anyway, it's all my brother's! She's been holding it in her hands for so many years, and it's time to return it! As he spoke, a hint of fierceness appeared on Master Su's face.
Su Lao was shocked. She hurriedly shook her head and said, "No! If you really do this, it will only make the two girls Xiyun and Qianyun hate us and Bofu to the core, and then the gains outweigh the losses! ”
"It's better to let the old daughter-in-law go down the mountain obediently!"
Listened to Su Lao's words. The ferocity on Master Su's face slowly faded, he frowned and thought for a long time, but finally had no clue: "Mother, is the old daughter-in-law willing to go down the mountain by herself?" When my brother died of illness, she was forced by us to go to the mountain after all......"
"I'm thinking about her too! If she didn't stay in the mountains, she might have remarried at this moment, how could she keep Jing'an like a jade for so many years? Su Lao said impatiently: "Speaking of which, she still has to thank me!" ”
When Master Su heard this, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and he couldn't say a word anymore.
Back then, Su Lao insisted on sending his wife to the mountain for Qing Xiu, and he broke up the mother and daughter for more than ten years. I didn't expect it to come to the old mouth, and all this turned into credit......
"Mother, no matter what, my brother and sister have been on the mountain for so many years now, and now I want her to go down the mountain, is she willing?" Master Su admired her mother's black-and-white reversal skills, but he was afraid that he would vomit if he listened to it again, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Of course!" Su Lao smiled mysteriously, and then said, "Don't worry, I will have a way to let her come down the mountain obediently." ”
"What's the solution?" Master Su's eyes lit up suddenly, and then he asked.
Su Lao smiled mysteriously and said, "You know." ”
When Su Xiyun came to Kunning Palace with Mama Rong, she unexpectedly found that the queen was flipping through a thick picture album.
"Xiyun knocks on the queen!"
Listening to Su Xiyun's voice of asking for peace, the queen hurriedly raised her head from the book, and beckoned to Su Xiyun with a smile: "Xiyun, come on, come on, help the mourning family take a look at this book!" ”
When Su Xiyun heard this, she stood up very curiously, slowly walked to the queen's side, and then looked at the album spread out on the table, and saw that on the page spread out above, there was a picture of a beauty drawn by a court painter.
"Niangniang, these are ......" Su Xiyun said in some surprise.
"Oh, that's right, Caifeng is gone, and the palace wants to re-elect a talented and beautiful woman to be the concubine among the ladies in Beijing. These are the portraits of those ladies. The queen said lightly: "Xiyun, you come to help the palace take a look." Because of the mention of the deceased Concubine Shi, the expression on her face became a little sad.
Su Xiyun also had some bad feelings in her heart, when the Shi family was alive, although she always had nothing to find fault with her, Su Xiyun never hated each other, it was just an infatuated woman, now that she is gone, Su Xiyun doesn't want to mention all the things in the past.
"Niangniang, how important is the matter of choosing a future concubine, Xiyun is just the daughter of a little uncle's mansion, how dare she give her opinion?" Su Xiyun put down the album and took a step back.
When the queen heard this, she immediately shook her head and said, "Who said it has nothing to do with you?" You are about to marry Ye'er, and the new concubine who will enter the palace in the future will also be your sister-in-law, what's wrong with you helping the palace choose now? ”
When she said this, Su Xiyun was speechless. The queen was not annoyed, but only took her hand and looked down at the album with her.
"Niangniang, this daughter of the military department Shangshu looks good, with a small melon face, and a jīng nose ......" Su Xiyun looked at it for a long time, and it was easy to see a beauty, and she said.
It's a pity that she was interrupted by the queen when she was only halfway through her speech: "I heard that this Shangshu concubine is a left-hander, and she won't even be able to do the etiquette when she enters the palace in the future, so she can't do it." ”
Su Xiyun: "......" giant pit throwing technique.
"What about this? The face is like the full moon, and the eyes are like ......"
"It's not good, the waist is like a bucket!"
"What about this ......"
"It's not good, I'm thin, it's like a bamboo pole!"
"Mother, you better see for yourself!" Su Xiyun sighed helplessly.
The queen casually put the album aside and said, "Why don't you read it?" Well, there's another copy here. As he spoke, he conjured up a picture album as a whole.
Su Xiyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, there was actually a copy, my God, how many unmarried young women are there in the capital?
The two of them chose for most of the day, and the queen failed to pick a satisfactory candidate.
At this moment, a palace person entered the palace and reported: "Queen Niangniang, Shi Jia Si xiǎojié asks to see!" ”
The queen suddenly shook her head and said, "Hurry up!" ”
Su Xiyun sat on the side, and when she saw the queen's appearance, she was suddenly surprised in her heart, what kind of character is this Shi family, who actually makes the queen so excited? Since they are all from the Shi family, it means that this woman has a great relationship with the late concubine Shi.
Thinking of the queen's act of flipping through the album just now, Su Xiyun suddenly felt as if she understood something.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, even if Su Daiyun entered the palace, she gave birth, but if she wanted to climb to a high position, it was still very difficult.
After a while, the stone walked in from outside the door.
Su Xiyun hurriedly raised her eyes to take a look, and saw that the girl who came over was ten years old, tall, a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes slightly lowered, revealing a restrained atmosphere, her face was jīng, and she was a little similar to the late concubine, and then looked at the body, she was wearing a lotus sè stand-up collar narrow-sleeved shirt, and a white sè long skirt on the lower body.
"Jinfeng see the queen's mother, the mother's mother." Shi Sixiǎojié walked a few steps in front of the queen and stopped, and then bowed respectfully.
"Hurry up!" The queen said with a smile, she beckoned, motioned for Shi Jinfeng to come forward, and then gently took her hand and said, "How can I have time to enter the palace to see the palace today?" ”
"Back to the mother's words, Jinfeng heard that she was going to enter the palace to visit her mother, so she hurried over to take a look." Shi Jinfeng said with a smile. A noble girl seeks to marry
