Chapter 39: The Feast (1)
The girl in yellow is surnamed Huang. Because he has a yellow surname, he likes yellow things very much. The clothes should be worn in warbler yellow, the sachet should be decorated with goose yellow, and the head and face should all be gold hairpins, gold hairpins, gold steps, and gold beads - gold is also yellow.
At this time, the golden-headed Huang Zhengqi girl also noticed the strange looks of the little sisters, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”
The fifth girl looked around, glanced at the other girls, and then said in a low voice: "Lan Shi's name...... Don't take it. ”
Miss Wong: "Why? ”
She was puzzled: "I was born in the spring, so it's just right to take this name." ”
The fifth girl whispered even more, "Don't you know? ...... at home The word that follows the Ming Court is Lan Shi. This was taken by His Majesty himself. ”
Miss Huang didn't react at first, she didn't pay much attention to this. But her father is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and she can be regarded as a family of eunuchs, and she still knows a little about the major events and big names in Kyoto, so she quickly remembered it, so she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Ah! Yes! Yes! ”
She hurriedly said: "Just because I didn't say it, just because I didn't say it." ”
This kind of behavior made the feast bell curious, but looking at Miss Huang's expression, she also knew that she shouldn't ask now. However, she had heard some things about the Sui family from the fifth girl in the carriage today, and probably knew that this person named Sui Mingting, who was named Lan Shi by His Majesty himself, was the only son of Sui Boying, the former prince and the later great corrupt official.
The son of a criminal minister naturally cannot be mentioned.
The girls stopped talking about this person, but talked about the Song family. And they know it, too!
"God, Song Qingyun didn't even raise it...... It's a pity that the girl of the Mo family, that is a very good sister, I went to the banquet that year and soiled my skirt, and she wiped the mud with a handkerchief for me. ”
Miss Huang sighed, "If it weren't for the fact that my family didn't have a brother and sister to kiss, I would have been her sister-in-law." ”
The fifth girl is considered an "insider", and said Song Qingyun fiercely, "That is, ruining the reputation of other girls!" The Mo family is also good-tempered, if it were my family, hum. ”
Everyone naturally knew the news of Yu Xingzhi's departure from Beijing, although they didn't know the specifics, but they could guess that Ning Guogong's family was ruthless, so they were very envious, "Your mother is also very good...... When did your third brother and fourth brother say goodbye? ”
The fifth girl said helplessly: "Looking at what my father means, I can't wait for them to be admitted to the top prize and then get married." ”
The three girls laughed together and said, "Your brothers are already talented and good-looking, if they are still admitted to the top prize, how can they live with other people's brothers?" ”
Miss Huang teased in a low voice, "But your two brothers are stuffy gourds...... God, when I think of him not saying a word for ten days and a half months, I don't dare to marry, I'm afraid that I will suffocate to death at that time. ”
She's a talker.
As soon as these words came out, there was another burst of laughter. The feast bell was discovered, in fact...... Kyoto says that the rules are strict, but both the ladies and the girls are extremely "wanton" in private. When they talk about men, they have no scruples.
For example, Miss Huang talked about the ranking of young men in Beijing who are worthy of husbands. First of all, Song Qingyun was excluded and said: "At first, he was worthy of the top spot, but now he ...... Tsk, who wants it? ”
Then speaking of Yu Xingzhi, he took the hand of the feast bell and said, "Sister Sheng, you are also unlucky." ”
Finally, talking about Zhou Hao of the Zhou family, the third young master and the fourth young master of the Ning Guo family, as he spoke, he suddenly stopped, and began to sneak around like a thief again: "Actually, when I don't talk about Suilan today, I have forgotten him." But speaking of which...... When he was in Kyoto, no one could compare, right? ”
The fifth girl bowed, "Yes, I met him once, and he is different from my sons. ”
Feast Bell wondered, "How is it different?" ”
The fifth girl said to her, "You haven't seen him, you may not understand what I say, but if you see him, you will know what the angry horse means." ”
In fact, when they rode through the long street with Ming Ting, they were still young, but when it came to his appearance, his manners, and his skills, they all knew something.
"It is the companion of the East Palace, and His Majesty personally gave the words, and the scenery is infinite."
"At the age of five, he entered the palace to accompany the prince, at the age of thirteen or fourteen, he wandered to the country, and at the age of fifteen or sixteen, he followed Boying and began to make friends with the ministers...... It was a spring breeze back then. ”
"He is very good-looking, lush and green, with a long body, once on a snowy day, he came to my house for a banquet wearing a crane, talking and laughing with a wine glass, and how many girls were blinded."
"There are also men who recommend pillow seats! He didn't want it, he didn't get married, and he didn't have a concubine. I have heard that a monk told him his fortune, saying that he had a great calamity before he was twenty-five years old, and he must not marry or get close to women......"
A forgotten person, it's okay not to talk about it, but when it comes to it, no one can't help but say a few words. Everyone remembers a few little things about him, and the little things are different, but in the end, they all sighed, "It's a pity, there is such a father...... He died at the age of twenty-one, and he didn't live to be twenty-five. ”
The feast bell also sighed: "Listening to you, I can also imagine what kind of scenery he was at that time." The young man in fresh clothes is nothing more than that. I've never seen anything like it. ”
Her husband is sick, there is no light in his eyes, and he sits in that small courtyard all the year round and looks at the clouds in the sky, which really can't be regarded as a freshly dressed angry horse.
When I arrived in Kyoto, my cousins weren't like that, they were all sullen, and the third cousin smiled beautifully, but he also looked very steady, not a person who played horses and roamed the streets.
Miss Huang: "Later, there were people in Kyoto who imitated his words and deeds, but it has always been difficult to draw the skin and bones, if you want to say that I, Suilan's body is really good, I heard about the case of the imperial examination that year, he almost died in order to expose the truth......"
Just as he was about to continue, he saw the fourteenth girl from the Zhenguo Mansion come over with two little maids, and said with a smile: "I said, you are hiding here and whispering, and you don't go to drink with your sisters-Sister Xixi, you know poetry and books the most, why don't you go?" They all told me to invite you. ”
Miss Huang was a little unhappy when she heard her speak, "Fourteen Niang, you are really bad at talking, you should say that we are all powerful, why do you praise Sister Xixi alone, in case we are careful to hold grudges, what should you do?" ”
Another girl in the pavilion wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "You are angry with Fourteen Niang, but we are angry with Xixi - who only makes everyone know that she is powerful, but not that we are also powerful?" ”
You're welcome to be so weird! The feast bell looked at them quietly, and realized that the kindness they had just had was gone, and was replaced by an obvious target.
She got to know this group of girls one level deeper.
The feast bell stood aside and didn't speak, but the fourteenth girl couldn't get up and down her face for a while, white and red for a while, and finally said with a grueled smile: "I just can't speak, I really don't mean anything else, don't be surprised." ”
The fifth girl returned to her usual shyness at this time, and whispered, "It's okay, let's go." ”
The group went to the middle of the garden. After a while, a thirteen lady came to greet her. She said wittily, "But I found it, ah-yo-yo, I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you all lost weight?" Although the wind is not strong today, you must stand firm and don't be blown down by the wind. ”
looked at the feast bell again, "This sister is a girl from the Sheng family, right?" Today, there are several sisters and sisters who say that you are like a fairy concubine, I didn't believe it before, but now I can believe that there is such a beauty in this world. ”
Then he said to Miss Huang: "In the past, we were good, you won't want me if you see your good sister, right?" I'm going to cry yes! Don't be biased! ”
Speaking of such a person, Feast Bell thinks this is really a good girl. As soon as she thought like this, the fifth girl reminded her, "Don't be deceived by her, she is like this, she has to say good things when she sees everyone, and the dogs on the side of the road have to praise a few words of long hair, but she is a ruthless person behind her back, and people like Fourteen Niang have suffered a lot in her hands." ”
Feast Bell: "......"
She took a deep breath, only to feel that there were a lot of people, and it was really strange.
At this time, they had reached the middle of the garden, and as far as the eye could see, there were about twenty girls who were drinking here, and they were already looking at them.
She took another deep breath.
- It's the first time I've seen such a girl from a small place.
That's a lot of people.
