Chapter 163: Lying Down, I Was Shot
Su Xiyun couldn't help but take Su Qianyun's hand and stepped back, Qi Lao is not a good stubble, every time he comes to Bofu, he can make Su Lao angry half to death, so many guests are here today, if she says something ugly, Su Lao will be anxious, and these of them who are granddaughters will suffer, so it's better to stay away.
Although Su Qianyun was pulled aside by Su Xiyun, her eyes were still staring nervously at the door, and the anxious expression on her face revealed the worry in her heart. Su Xiyun saw it from the side, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but with so many people present, she couldn't say anything.
After a while, the bead curtain at the door was opened by the maid from the outside, and a woman wearing a dark purple mink jacket and a beaded hairpin on her head walked in from the door with the support of two little girls like flowers and jade. Her mouth was as sweet as honey, and when she saw this room full of noble women, even if she smiled and stepped forward to greet her one by one, it was Su Lao, the owner of today's birthday star, who was completely left behind by her.
Seeing that Su Lao was so disregarded in front of so many people, Su Lao was so angry that he almost attacked on the spot.
Fortunately, reason told her that today was her own birthday banquet, and if she was angry in public, it would really make Qi Lao happy. So she forcibly suppressed this anger, and had to put a smile on her face, but the smile never reached the bottom of her eyes.
Qi Lao himself greeted those noble ladies and introduced his two granddaughters, Su Feiyun and Su Qiangyun, to the ladies and gentlemen, and the two little girls were beautiful and charming, so they naturally received a lot of praise. Qi Lao glanced at Su Lao triumphantly in his busyness, which seemed to say: Look, your birthday banquet is not fulfilling me in the end!
Su Lao almost blackened her face angrily, she hadn't ceremoniously introduced her Qianyun to these noble ladies yet, okay? How could you let Qi Lao go first! This is obviously her birthday party! In her heart, she couldn't wait to tear apart Qi Lao, who stole her limelight. But there was nothing to be done.
In fact, Su Lao was too worried, since the time when the two noble brothers and sisters came in with Qi Junhan, Su Xiyun and Su Qianyun have become the most eye-catching characters at this banquet, what about Qi Lao's introduction of Su Feiyun and Su Qiangyun? Those noble ladies have very vicious eyes, and they have long known that they are just the side daughters of the Cheng'an Mansion, will people let the serious daughters of the Bofu not look at them, but go to see them?
Everyone's expressions were faint later, and Qi Lao was a little disappointed in her heart, but she had always thought about it, and she understood that it was not an overnight thing to let her two granddaughters be accepted by these noble ladies of the world. At the moment, he was not entangled in this, but finally walked towards Su Lao, whom he had been fighting with for decades. Su Feiyun and Su Qiangyun naturally followed behind their grandmother. The two of them bent down with a smile and saluted Su Lao.
Qi Lao walked over with a smile and directly grabbed Su Lao's hand, and said, "Sister-in-law, today is your birthday, brother and sister, I am here to congratulate you!" As he spoke, he ordered someone to bring up his congratulatory gift---- a large screen, two feet wide, and placed there, which instantly attracted all the attention of everyone in the hall.
This is not the most surprising, the more carefully look at the more people are surprised, only to see that the screen on the head, with a variety of colored silk threads, gold threads, silver threads, embroidered large and small, different shapes, different postures of birds and birds, the most eye-catching in the middle, is a whole body embroidered with gold thread of the phoenix, embroidered vividly, everyone to see, always feel that this phoenix has the potential to spread its wings and soar. I couldn't help but be even more surprised.
This screen is embroidered for a picture of a bird and a phoenix.
Qi Lao triumphantly took in the eyes of everyone present, and immediately smiled and said to Su Lao: "What's the matter?" My two granddaughters, who are not successful, have made progress in embroidery, right? Sister-in-law? ”
Su Lao's face darkened the moment this super screen was lifted, but fortunately, everyone was busy looking at the screen at that time and didn't notice her expression and eyes.
Su Xiyun noticed it, she always understood that Su Lao was the most disgusted person who was disobedient and someone who stole the limelight with her in public. Qi Lao happened to be guilty of both. Su Xiyun knew that Qi Lao would be angry, but she didn't know how she would turn the situation around, so she only secretly prayed in her heart that Qi Lao would not go too far, because in that case, Su Lao would definitely start cleaning her up before the banquet was over, so wouldn't there be no one to block Su Lao?
I don't know why, Su Xiyun just likes to see Su Lao being speechless by Qi Lao.
Su Lao smiled reluctantly, and spit out a sentence from his mouth: "There is growth, it's been so many years, if you haven't grown yet, then don't talk about me, even you, your own grandmother, can't stand it, isn't it?" As she spoke, she stared at Qi Lao with blazing eyes.
This is obviously a compliment, but secretly it is actually a mockery of Su Feiyun and Su Qiangyun, just one embroidery has been for many years, and at this time, there is still a face to show in front of people, it is really shameless!
Qi Lao's face changed suddenly, but she was stunned for a moment, but she still smiled and said: "Isn't it, after so many years, these two children are a persevering person, and they can even persevere, and they are expensive!" But I heard that Xiyun hasn't taken an embroidery needle for a long time, didn't she only embroider two handkerchiefs when Daiyun got married? What gift did she send this time? Show me? She carried a gun and a stick for a while, openly and secretly elevating her granddaughter, but she belittled Su Xiyun very low.
Su Xiyun sat there and rolled her eyes speechlessly, was she getting shot while lying down?
As soon as Qi Lao's words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
"I wronged us Xiyun when I said this, I asked her not to do those needlework every day, and the girls in our Bofu are not from those small families, what about decades? It's not like I'm going to be an embroiderer in the future! I always hold a sewing basket every day, aren't you tired of panic? As long as you can embroider, you don't need to go for so long, with that kung fu, you can do something else? For example, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, oh, by the way, you girls in Dongfu don't need this. Qi Lao smiled sarcastically, and immediately put a little smug on his face: "My Xiyun is smart and dexterous, no worse than your two granddaughters, oh, come and see, this is the longevity picture sent by my family Xiyun today, you all come and take a look!" As he spoke, he asked someone to take out Su Xiyun's picture for Qi Lao to see.
Su Lao gave her a long face today because of Su Xiyun's Magu birthday picture, and at this time, Qi Lao was not allowed to slander her, if it was usual, she would definitely turn a blind eye. In addition, Qi Lao said that Su Daiyun was married, which hit Su Lao's sore spot again, so she spoke unkindly.
Everyone listened to this conversation mixed with the strong smell of gunpowder, and they were silent, in fact, many people felt that Su Lao was right! After all, the embroidery of the bird and the phoenix is excellent, but the painting is not new, it is all a few years ago, and naturally it cannot be compared with Su Xiyun's novel and unique Magu birthday picture.
However, some people think that Su Feiyun and Su Qiangyun's bird and phoenix screens are good-looking, after all, painting is simple, but embroidery can only be done after years and months.
Su Xiyun was stunned when she heard that Su Lao actually had such a high opinion of her in his mouth, did Yang come out of the east today? The old witch can actually say such a thing? But she was only happy for a moment and came back to her senses: Having said that, maybe Su Lao thought in his heart! Maybe she's there at the moment, secretly cursing her, and maybe she's not going to be there.
Su Xiyun calmed her mind and stood there silently, and suddenly, she felt two vague lines of sight from the right hand side looking towards her, and there was a strong hatred in those sights.
Su Xiyun immediately turned her head and looked at Su Qiangyun's hateful eyes that she didn't have time to retract.
Su Xiyun quietly withdrew her eyes, and rolled her eyes helplessly in her heart, these days, being praised by others for a few words will cause hatred, who is she recruiting? But this Su Qiangyun girl is also a little stingy, isn't it just that Su Lao said a few words, as for this? But in her heart, she secretly raised her guard against Sister Su Qiangyun. Today's matter, she doesn't take it seriously, but it doesn't mean that others don't take it seriously, what if the sisters secretly give her a hand?
It's better to be on guard.
Qi Lao never thought that Su Lao would not care about his 60th birthday today, and he would embarrass her in front of so many people. As Su Lao's words were finished sentence by sentence, her face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and she just wanted to make a hysterical mess for her, but at this time, someone hurriedly walked to the center of the hall with a painting.
Qi Lao was standing closest to the middle, she was the first to see the painting, and she was a little incredulous at the moment, this, this, this was actually painted by Su Xiyun's little hoof? That's impossible! In fact, the ladies around have already seen it once, but everyone loves good things, and this second time they opened it, they were still as excited as the first time, and they couldn't stop making a "tsk" sound in their mouths.
Before Qi Lao could speak, Su Qiangyun, who had already looked at the painting from head to toe, had already pointed at Su Xiyun with her finger and shouted loudly: "Impossible! You never paint, you don't draw it! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent.
