28. Accidental in the list
It is said that the one who is close to Zhu is red, and the one who is close to ink is black, and when he gets close to Zhong Li, Dye Qing will not only learn him to wear white clothes, but also go to the spice shop occasionally when he goes out of the house to find the spice smell on Zhong Li's body.
But several stores searched for it, but they didn't get anything, and they couldn't find that fragrance. I can't help but wonder, could it be Zhongli's homemade sachets and spices? This matter was revealed, and she was not embarrassed to ask him.
Stepping into September, that is, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.
A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dye Qing sat around with Lizhu Niang and Xiang'er as in previous years, and set up lanterns. Speaking of lanterns, it was Xiang'er who taught them to tie them, and it is said that her parents sold lanterns, but later died of illness.
They would cut a lot of red paper, and then tie up a lantern with steel wire and hang it by the door and in the grove in the backyard, which also added to the festive atmosphere of this backyard.
Every Mid-Autumn Festival, Livzon will go to the kitchen by herself, make a few cakes, then fry a few side dishes, move the table to the yard, and the three of them sit together, admiring the moon and nibbling on cakes.
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is different from usual.
The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, a girl came to the front yard to report that the prime minister had invited the second lady and the third lady to the hall.
It is rare for this father to remember them in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and naturally their mother and daughter have to go to the front yard to meet them "with sincere fear". Seeing that Lizhu Niang's eyebrows were dyed with sorrow, Dye Qing secretly clenched her fists.
In the past few years, Lizhu Niang no longer seems to be looking forward to the grace of the prime minister, but is becoming more and more of the current ordinary life. On the contrary, when I was remembered for the summons, I was sad, because every time I went to the front yard, I always had to look at the face of the eldest lady.
When they arrived in the front hall, Prime Minister Ning Cheng and the eldest lady were already seated in the upper seat, and Ning Feiyang and Ning Ruoshuang were also there, sitting at the bottom of the seat, with two empty seats, which should have been reserved for them.
After saluting separately, Lizhu and Dye Qing took their seats.
As soon as I sat down, I heard Prime Minister Ning Cheng say: "Lizhu, every year the Mid-Autumn Festival Queen will hold a moon viewing conference in the palace, and will invite princes and ministers, as well as ladies and ladies and young ladies from various provinces. ”
Speaking of this, his eyes drifted to Dye Qing who was sitting in the farthest place, and it seemed that he was also a little surprised, there will be her on the list sent by the palace this year, and there was only one place for Ruoshuang in previous years.
Because this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, to put it bluntly, is a banquet set up by the queen for several princes.
Lizhu was a little stunned, she had been worried about her daughter's marriage, and she mentioned it to the prime minister several times, but she didn't pay attention to it. Why is there such an opportunity to dye blue this year? But I am still happy in my heart, Dye Qing has been locked up in the backyard for a lifetime, and has never been in contact with the outside world, this time out of the house, it may be a good opportunity.
But Ran Qing was spitting bitterness in her heart, so she wasn't interested in what kind of palace or Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Ning Cheng saw that they were silent, and commanded himself: "On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dye Qing will follow your eldest mother and second sister to the palace, Lizhu, these days, you have to teach her etiquette well, the palace is no more than your own house without rules." He frowned and looked at the old expectations on Dye Qing's body, and couldn't help but say, "Ask Curry later to get some silver and help her get some dressing." ”
"Got it, sir." Livzon replied respectfully.
The eldest lady spoke at this time: "Master, this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, if Shuang is the protagonist, I don't need to dress up too much, as long as it is decent." If you are sixteen, you were called into the palace by the queen a few days ago to live in the palace for some time, and this time you must choose a good son-in-law for Ruoshuang. ”
When Prime Minister Ning heard this, he unconsciously held his beard and smiled: "Yes, Madame is reasonable." ”
Ning Ruoshuang said shyly: "Mother! The face was already blushing, but the joy in the eyebrows and eyes couldn't help it, it was just the age when the spring heart sprouted.
returned to the backyard and closed the courtyard door, Lizhu's eyes lit up, hugged Dye Qing and said: "Girl, my mother will dress up for you this time, we won't lose your second sister." ”
Dye Qing was startled, and hurriedly said: "Mother, why bother fighting with her?" ”
Lizhu smiled, "This is not a fight, my daughter is already unparalleled, in a few years, she will definitely be able to surpass your second sister, even now, as long as you smooth up your forehead, your pretty face can't cover it, if you get a good marriage, my mother will be happy for you." ”
Ran Qing was secretly anxious in her heart, her mind was full of the white-clothed figure, how could she have other thoughts to think about anything else, not to mention, the decision in her heart, what she had been planning for a long time, although now because of Zhongli's appearance, she hesitated, but she still didn't make a decision.
pretended to be coquettish on his face: "Mother, I can't bear you, if I get married, won't you be the only one in this backyard?" Are you willing to dye it blue? ”
Lizhu was stunned for a moment, and there were tears in her eyes, "Silly child, my mother can't bear you, but you can't accompany your mother for a lifetime." One day you will marry and find a good match. It's rare to have such an opportunity, you have to take advantage of it, otherwise your father will remember you again next time, but I don't know when. ”
Dye Qing couldn't hold back her sour nose, she couldn't see Lizhu Niang so sad the most, she thought for a while and said: "That's it, mother, you make me a better set of clothes, I don't think I should change other clothes, after all, now I am competing for beauty with the second sister, and it is also bad, not to mention that if the good man is judged by his appearance, it must not really be a good match." ”
This statement made sense, and Lizhu nodded after thinking about it.
