Chapter 32: After being ugly for so many years, Miss Ben is used to it
The winter sky seemed to be gray every day, and the thick clouds piled up in the sky to let in the sunlight, only the howling cold wind mixed with the silver snowflakes dancing in the sky.
Yun Yu stood by the window in white obscenity, looking at the snow outside the window and couldn't help frowning.
In such weather, she would rather hide in the house and bake the charcoal fire with the soup woman than go out in the wind and snow.
Xiao Tao'er respectfully held the copper basin with both hands, and the copper basin was clean water for cleaning hands, as well as the petals of freshly picked flowers.
In addition to Xiao Tao'er, there are two new maids in the house, one is called Qingyan and a little egret.
The two of them were carefully selected by Mama Liu, Qingyan's personality is lively, and Bailu's temperament should be steady, and this static movement is very well matched.
"Third Miss, today is the queen's birthday banquet, let's not be too late. Seeing that Yun Yu didn't seem to be very happy to move, the egret reminded him.
It's impossible not to go, who asked the prince to speak in person, and this time when you enter the palace, you must bring the lady of the Hou Mansion?
Just a few days ago, the old lady forced Yun Jingyuan to let him recognize Su Xian as her sister-in-law, and she had to take Su Xian into the palace to show her face in front of those nobles.
Yun Jingyuan agreed, but he felt that since he wanted to take Su Xian to the palace banquet, then all the young ladies in the Hou Mansion should go, including Yun Yu, the young lady from the Hou Mansion.
The old lady was unwilling, as soon as the concubine of the Hou Mansion went, it would not be Su Xian's turn to show her face, but Yun Jingyuan's attitude was tough, and the old lady had to grit her teeth and agree.
A few maids were about to go out after dressing up Yun Wei, when the little maid outside hurriedly ran in and replied, "Third Miss, your carriage is broken, I'm afraid you won't be able to go." ”
Yun Yu smiled and didn't speak, but the little peach on the side was in a hurry, she pointed to the little guy and asked, "Yesterday, I asked the people in your stable to inspect the stables, why did the carriage break down?"
The little guy couldn't speak, but knelt on the ground and begged for mercy and shouted: "The little one has been checked yesterday, and the carriage was fine at that time, I don't know why this carriage broke down as soon as it came this morning......
"Dare to quibble, it's clear that you are not doing well......"
"Wronged! Miss wronged......"
"Okay, now is not the time to pursue it, think about sending Miss into the palace first, don't miss the time. The egret interrupted the argument between the little girl and the little peach.
"Are there any other frames in the house?" asked Egret.
"No, the frames of the house have been distributed to the ladies in the house, Miss Xian's car has broken down this morning, and the last spare car has also been used by Miss Xian. The little guy said worriedly.
"Then go and ask whose carriage is more spacious and would like to ride with my young lady?" said the white herret.
"The ladies of the house have been gone for a long time...... But the little ones remember that there was a horse-drawn carriage in the big kitchen......"
This made Qingyan on the side blow up, she rolled up her sleeves and was about to pull the little girl's ears and scolded: "Bastard, what nonsense are you talking about? You should also let the third lady sit in the carriage that pulls vegetables? Are you really fooling us as people from Jinxiu Academy?"
Today's change is definitely not an accident, Yun Yu can figure it out with her toes.
Why was the carriage good yesterday but broken this morning? Why was the spare carriage used by Su Xian? What's even more inexplicable is that the ladies of the entire Hou Mansion have left, but no one is waiting for her, and no one has even come to inform her, isn't it obvious that someone doesn't want her to go?
Since I don't want her to go, I just don't go, there are many rules in the palace, but I don't feel comfortable going, and I have to talk and laugh with the eyes of so many people, it's boring to think about it.
"Then let's not go, anyway, I don't think I'm in good health, I can't stand the bumps of the carriage, let's go back to the house and sleep." Yun Yu said lazily, not in a hurry that she couldn't go to the palace banquet.
Mama Liu came over with a cup of bird's nest, and when she heard Yun Wei's words, she immediately objected: "Miss, don't mess around, how can you not go to this palace banquet if you say you don't go?"
"Mama, this is not my nonsense, this is really no way, I can't take the maid all the way to the palace, right? Yun Yu said coquettishly.
How do you know that Mama Liu didn't listen to Yun Wei at all, it seemed that she saw through Yun Yan's careful thinking and said lightly: "The old slave has already sent someone to inform the prince, and the prince will come back directly to pick you up after the early dynasty, and you and the prince will go to the palace for a banquet together." ”
This seems to be a reason that can't be refused at all, but looking at Mama Liu's reaction speed, she must have known that Yun Yu's carriage was going to break down today, so she was able to inform Yun Jingyuan so early.
There was still a while before Yun Jingyuan came back, and Mama Liu really didn't like Yun Yan's makeup, so she asked the maid to change Yun Wei's clothes and makeup again.
"Today is not only the palace banquet but also the birthday of the queen's mother, the young lady is too plain to wear is not good, it is more safe to be festive. Mama Liu said.
Yun Wei had no choice but to let the light pink gown she wore before not take off, change into a red gown, and then put on a royal blue skirt.
The neckline of the gown has a circle of white fox fluff, which looks very cute on the body.
Mama Liu combed Yun Wei into a delicate bun, she looked left and right for a long time but still felt that something was missing, so she rummaged in the jewelry box for a long time and did not find a suitable hair accessory.
"Mama, what do you think of this?" Yun Yu took out a box from the small drawer on the side and handed it to Mama Liu.
Mama Liu opened it and saw that it was a beautiful golden silk phoenix feather flower, and the beautiful color was just right for Yun Yu's hair.
"Sure enough, Mama Liu's craftsmanship is good, and Miss is really good-looking in this dress, like a little fairy. The crowd praised.
If it weren't for the veil to cover the scars, Yun Yu felt that the word fairy had nothing to do with her at all, especially when she saw the scar on her face when she looked in the mirror, her mood was extremely distressed.
On weekdays, she feels that it doesn't matter if she stays in Jinxiu Courtyard, and she can also bring a veil to cover her face when she leaves the house, but she must take off the veil when she meets the queen at the palace banquet, but she is afraid that she will be the laughing stock of everyone again.
"Forget it, anyway, after being ugly for so many years, Miss Ben is used to it, I don't care about this time, if others want to laugh at it, just laugh at it, Miss Ben just ignore them. ”
Yun Yu took off her veil and threw it aside, a little helpless, and turned her face away to stop looking at the scars on her face.
Yun Jingyuan hurried back, and as soon as he entered Jinxiu Courtyard, he heard Yun Yu's lamentation, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
In fact, in previous years, Yun Yu was not very willing to go to the palace banquet, and every year at the palace banquet, some people would laugh at her ugly appearance, if she was not arrogant, I was afraid that those people would bully her.
So now it seems that he can understand why Yun Yan's personality in the past was so irritable.
