Chapter 42: Stupid and Poisonous
The eldest lady took a lot of time, and specially found the portraits of young talents and presented them to her daughters one by one.
"Look at it, but there is a match for the eyes?" The eldest lady took another scroll and placed it on top of her daughter's bookcase.
Qi Shu was most annoyed by her mother like this, so she couldn't help but sweep the scroll to the side, "Mother is like this, it's like her daughter can't get married, why bother!" ”
As she moved, a corner of the scroll was revealed, revealing a portrait of a heroic young general wearing cloud purple gold armor.
Yao's heart was also upset, "It's not your unreliable father who actually promised your family affairs to the Sun family, my daughter has found a thousand good husbands, and she is overpowered!" ”
Qi Shu sneered, "Aunt Sun has a good calculation!" The second brother specially asked Kang Wenxiu the day before yesterday, but he mistakenly recognized Qi Wanran as me, so he was satisfied. Although I don't like Kang Wenxiu, she is also pathetic! ”
When Yao heard his daughter say this, his heart was also happy. Her daughter is naturally a concubine, even if she doesn't want a family affair, the Sun family will hold it in her hands like a treasure.
For a while, he remembered the matter again, and carefully unfolded the scroll, "This is General Ling Xiao of General Weiyuan's Mansion, who recently came from the cold and bitter land of the northwest because of his victory. Look, is it agreeable? ”
Because of the Weiyuan General's Mansion guarding the frontier and the meritorious service of defending against the enemy, many wealthy ladies in the capital are staring at General Ling Xiao's marriage. Yao's family also relied on his mother's door to get this scroll, but he was casually thrown aside by his daughter.
"Mother! My daughter doesn't like reckless men who know martial arts! Qi Shu twisted her eyebrows, glaring at the scroll with some disgust, "My daughter's future husband must be both civil and military!" ”
Yao's was angry, "There are only a few people in the Manchu Dynasty who can be civil and martial!" You're a karma, I'm afraid I'll be angry if I'm not angry! ”
"How not!" Qi Shu said with a lonely voice, "I see, the second prince is not bad......"
Before she finished speaking, she was hurriedly covered by Yao, "What nonsense! The second prince not to mention that he has become a relative, and even the side concubines have two, do you want to be angry with me! ”
"The daughter is happy with the second prince, and the others are not looked down upon by the daughter." Qi Shu also expressed his attitude, and said arrogantly.
Yao's ginger is still old and spicy, I saw her mind turn and face her daughter, "Tell me, did the second prince say anything to you?" Or have you been in contact with each other? ”
My daughter has been simple since she was a child, if it wasn't for someone to encourage her, how could she have such a monstrous mind?
Hearing Yao's question, Qi Shu's face showed a little flush. She has no dust under her eyes, and she can't get into her eyes when she is idle. But since the last time the second prince joined hands on a rainy day, not to mention being personable, just the conversation between the two of them like a spring breeze made her feel more happy.
"Mother, what nonsense! It's not that time I went to my grandmother's house, it happened to be a rainy day, and the carriage broke down, so the second prince asked me to ride together......" Speaking of which, Qi Shu's bright little face was slightly red, like March spring pink, delicate and pretty, quite a cardamom tip to explore the beauty of spring.
Yao's heart sank immediately, and he hurriedly asked Rouge to cover the doors and windows, and sat beside her in person, asking carefully.
After confirming that his daughter was safe, Yao exhaled a turbid breath, and deeply hated the second prince's temptation, which made his daughter look like a spring.
The second prince, the prince of the heavenly family, has a noble status and holds power, if he really falls in love with his daughter, he is afraid that he can ask for a name for his daughter if he directly informs the marquis.
Now that he is flirting like this, he is acting as if nothing happened, isn't he stepping on his daughter's name on the ground?
Yao Shi was a little unhappy in his heart.
But this is extremely difficult to say, not to mention Shu'er's appearance of deep feet in the mud, just saying that the second prince behaves in a style makes people unable to find fault.
If it is just a rainy day, it will cause her daughter to make a mistake, even if she picks it out, I am afraid that her daughter's reputation will be damaged.
Yao was worried for a while, and he didn't have the heart to tell his daughter, so he only frowned and left.
said that she was sad and bleak, and her daughter-in-law Hu was very proud in front of the eldest son Qi Tianheng because of her father's outspoken reputation.
Some time ago, because Yan'er was pregnant and had a miscarriage, the resentment that had accumulated was vomited, and the whole person was a little relieved.
Although Qi Tianheng is ridiculous, he loves her good color in the end, taking advantage of the Hu family's good mood, he has done a few clouds and rains, and for a while he actually threw the warbler Yanyan aside, which is rare and rare for the Hu family.
The Hu family naturally took advantage of this to recuperate well, and strive to win a man in one fell swoop, so they also had the foundation of gaining a foothold in the Hou Mansion.
In the blink of an eye, on the twenty-third day of August, the widow of General Weiyuan's Mansion handed a post to Wanqing to the mansions of the friends, wanting to invite the ladies of various famous families to come over to enjoy the flowers.
Although it is in the name of appreciating flowers, it is actually taking advantage of the fact that the little uncle Ling Yao has not yet returned to the side, and shows him a good family.
The ladies and ladies who got the posts in each province all tried their best to win the first place at the flower-viewing banquet.
Yao's is no exception, in order to completely suppress her daughter's thoughts, she spent a lot of effort on this flower-viewing banquet, not only did Yunjin Pavilion embroider the girl personally come to tailor, but also played a number of new heads, each exquisite and meticulous, quite ingenious.
Because the kite saw the two tortoiseshell turtles on the heads of the three girls from a distance, the wings of the fluttering phoenix butterfly were lifelike, and the special said that he listened to Shi Jin, and his eyes were full of envy.
"The third lady was really born in a honey pot, and it was the first time I had seen such a big butterfly hairpin. The butterfly pendant on the head of the fourth lady was actually smaller than this one. ”
Shi Jin was wearing a half-new green dress at this time, and the red bean earrings on her ears were as red as blood swayed slightly with her movements, making her face more and more like a peach.
She looked at no one around, and quietly nodded her eyebrows, "The eldest lady is deliberately looking for a good husband for the third lady, what's the matter?" Kite also wants? ”
Kite blushed because of Shi Jin's words, but she still said boldly, "Kite is still young, but she is a sister, what do you like?" ”
Shi Jin's eyes suddenly appeared in front of Cui Xiucai's appearance, and he smiled because he picked the corners of his mouth, "We can't help ourselves as slaves, and we have the kung fu to think about this, but it's better to work hard and get a lot of rewards." ”
"That's right," Kite looked quite teachable, but still turned to Shi Jindao, "Sister, do you remember Mr. Du?" ”
"What Mr. Belly Mr. Stomach? We are detained in the backyard every day, where do we know? Shi Jin responded casually.
Seeing that Shi Jin was not enlightened, Kite nodded at her and said, "Mr. Du is the bookkeeper of our Hou Mansion, young and promising, and he is very liked by the maids." I see, Mr. Nadu and his sister are a good match. ”
Shi Jin glared at her, "Don't talk nonsense!" When I leave the house, I will have to be twenty and five, and I dare to think about anything. ”
The kite is also emotional. She is the son of a family, because Lao Tzu Niang is on an errand in the Hou Mansion, she has been walking around in the Hou Mansion since she can remember, and she knows some maids.
He grabbed Shi Jin's arm and said affectionately, "If it weren't for my brother's love to play with money and drink, it would be good for my sister to be my sister-in-law." ”
The two played for a while, and Shi Jin squeaked again before she stopped making fun of herself.
.
The maids were joking innocentially, but Second Master Qi couldn't care about it at this time.
He was leaning on the second floor of a restaurant at this time, and through the half-open window facing the street, he watched the cars and horses on the street through the gap.
Opposite the restaurant is a pharmacy, the carriage of the Chen family, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is parked in an inconspicuous corner, and a woman wearing a white hooded skirt covered with light gauze is holding a stack of medicine bags and hurries to the carriage.
"How many times is this?" He asked a young guy next to him.
"Huiye, this is the third time this month." The little guy bowed his head and replied respectfully.
Qi Mojing lightly picked the corner of his lower lip, the human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, the second daughter of the Chen family is really stupid and poisonous.
