Chapter Ninety-Five: Frontal Begonia Flowers
On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the weather was excellent, and early in the morning, there were bursts of cheerful laughter in Zhang's mansion, but this laughter had nothing to do with the wax moon.
Chang Mama was sent by her to wait for the rabbit in the shop in the name of helping, and the city around her temporarily sent a third-class girl who served her to call Layue, and Layue originally shirked in every possible way and said no, but Zhicheng was very resolute to take out "The young lady of the dignified Zhangfu didn't even have a subordinate, and it was really unorthodox" to stuff this girl over.
looks like fourteen or fifteen, but he has an honest appearance of Checheno, not like the Chunhong given by his mother-in-law at the beginning, and he is a tricky and thief at first glance.
This is very carefully selected for herself, Layue is silently grateful to the city in her heart for finally caring about herself in this matter, and even thinking in her heart that she will not tell him the life experience of the city, so they will be separated so well, each will go his own way, and the end of the world will not bother from now on.
Seeing that this little girl was waiting for her to wash her face and comb her hair, her hands were shaking, and Layue sighed and suddenly thought of Xue Xiaoxi's sister and brother, those two children were also so afraid of everything at the beginning.
Presumably, this little girl usually doesn't have a good time.
"What's your name?" Layue thought of using her for a month, if she waited so tremblingly every day, it would not be very comfortable, so she chatted with her without anything to relax the fear in her heart.
"My name is Little Bean." The little girl replied in a whisper, and the hand holding the hosta for the hairpin of the moon shook off, and the hairpin fell to the ground and broke into two, so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept crying and kowtowing for mercy.
"It's just a hairpin, get up, re-hairpin is something else, there are so many hairpins in the makeup box, what are you crying about?" Layue was a little pitiful, and she was a little tired of such a child, "Get up and dress up for me, let's go enjoy the flowers." ”
Xiaodouzi didn't expect it to be so easy, she didn't beat her, and she didn't scold her, so she spared her, and she secretly made up her mind to wait for a month after gratitude, and begged the young master well, so she stayed with the young lady.
Layue gestured and took out a pair of bracelets inlaid with red gold and multicolored gemstones, put them on, and asked her, "What did you care about at the young master's end?" ”
"Pipe sprinklers, sweepers, and watering flowers." Xiaodouzi was less afraid to speak this time, and his hands were much more stable.
Seeing that she combed her hair well, Layue praised her a few words, rewarded her with a pair of golden banana leaf earrings, and found two sets of clothes she wore when she was a girl in the old years and gave them to her, so that she could dress up more beautifully.
Xiaodouzi couldn't help but shed tears again, afraid that the young grandmother would be bored, so she wiped her eyes and tried her best not to cry. When I was on the young master's side, Mrs. Juan Niang was most tired of them wearing beautiful dresses, and she was beaten and scolded every day, where could she get such a generous reward, it was better for the young lady here.
I like the young lady more and more, and I serve her more dedicatedly, so I took it upon myself to match a set of very bright and colorful clothes for Layue, but Layue saw through her mind and said with a smile, "Xiaodouzi wants me to dress up more beautifully than the new young woman?" ”
Xiao Douzi hung her head and didn't speak, and only said after a long time, "The young lady looks much better than the new young lady when she is dressed, and the scar on her forehead Xiao Douzi has an idea, I don't know if the young lady likes it or not." ”
As soon as Layue heard the interest, Xiaoyun and Li Qing couldn't think of how to cover this scar, did Xiaodouzi have a way?
"Little Bean's mother used to be a girl who served the Oiran in the green building, and there was an Oiran with a green birthmark the size of a soybean under her eyes, and the Oiran was very dexterous, and she drew the birthmark into a Mo Lan, and everyone followed suit, and the little bean looked at the shape of Mrs. Scar's scar, and if you use rouge to draw a bright red begonia flower, it will look tight."
Begonia flowers? Layue looked at Xiaodouzi happily, "Xiaodouzi is so smart, think of such a method, you can draw it for me to see." ”
After a while, Layue looked at the half-opened gorgeous begonia flower in the corner of her forehead in the mirror, and sure enough, as Xiaodouzi said, she added a layer of smart and pretty feeling, and the scar was painted into the center of the flower, which was darker than the surrounding petals, but more layered, making the flower look like the real thing.
This is really an unexpected joy, although Layue doesn't care about the broken phase, but in the end, she is also a woman, and if she doesn't care, she must also want to be beautiful in her heart.
She smiled and took Xiaodouzi's hand, changed the set of clothes Xiaodouzi chose into a moon-white plain skirt, and said with a smile, "Xiaodouzi, do you think this looks better?" This begonia on the forehead is already red and gorgeous, and if you wear such a bright dress, it will become a big flower basket, and it will show this begonia with plain color, and it will not become the focus of the crowd, don't you say? ”
Waiting for the city to send someone to call them to go, when Layue appeared at the gate holding Xiaodouzi's hand, she obviously saw a flash of hatred and jealousy from the bottom of Juanniang's eyes, as well as the disgusted look on her mother-in-law's gloomy face, and the amazing appreciation and love that appeared in the city.
But he didn't dare to praise Layue for her good looks, and her mother and Juan Niang were there, so he had to say without a trace, "Yueniang is dressed up well today." ”
Then he helped his mother into the carriage at the front, and went up to accompany her, but he really did not have the courage to sit in the same carriage with his two wives, for fear that they would quarrel.
In the car behind, Layue and Juan Niang sat opposite each other, both extremely disgusted, far away from each other, and no one cared about anyone.
As long as she didn't come to provoke herself, Layue didn't bother to say a word to her.
But the begonias on her forehead today are so good, Juan Niang is about to go crazy with jealousy, watching her lazily leaning in the carriage with her eyes half-closed, she looks coquettish and seductive, and she forgets her mother-in-law's advice on impulse, and blurts out vicious words.
"Sister's makeup is really ingenious, more beautiful than the purple jade girl in Jinling."
Comparing Layue to a famous prostitute is a great humiliation for her, and she is full of waiting for Layue to ask herself who Ziyu is, so as to take the opportunity to humiliate her.
But how could she have thought that Layue would know Ziyu from thousands of miles away.
Seeing that Layue's eyes opened after hearing this, her eyes looked at her like knives, and said coldly, "If I were you, keep your mouth shut, my purpose has always been just to leave the Zhang family, and I don't want to mess with you about these things, if you don't have long eyes and have to provoke me, then don't blame me for being ruthless and not saving you face." ”
I didn't expect Layue to speak so directly, Juan Niang's face turned red, but she didn't believe her words, so she was not afraid of death and tried again, "Are you really willing to leave the Zhang family?" I've heard your rouge shop say that I've been losing money, and now the shops that are about to lose money are closed, aren't you coaxing me, the city of seeing likes you, and deliberately retreats into the city of domination and refuses to let you leave? ”
