"This..."Qingrong hesitated a little, this lady seems to be from an extraordinary background, and she thinks that there is a suitable screen frame, but she has never known each other... Siniang felt that it was a solution, and muttered in a low voice: "Sister, I think this is a way, maybe it will work." ”

The shopkeeper naturally knew the identity of this noble lady, and he didn't want to ruin her interest, so he also persuaded Qingrong to agree with an earnest face. Besides, whether it is to make screens or clamps, these two things are the business of his shop. After thinking about it, Qingrong responded to Wei Xunyan.

Wei Xunyan asked when he heard this: "Seriously, then let's say it." ”

Qingrong couldn't help but sigh, is this a natural stunner? It's really a smile and a smile, and it makes people's hearts ripple. She nodded, "Seriously, but I don't know what kind of tricks Madame wants?" I happen to be free today, why don't I draw one here first, so that Madame can see it before deciding? ”

Wei Xunyan thought for a while, nodded with a smile, "It's okay, I just have nothing to do all day, just according to your wishes." ”

Qingran couldn't help but quietly glance at this noble lady, and saw that the maid who followed her was also dressed extremely luxuriously, thinking that it was the woman from a noble family. Thinking about it here, Qingrong had already asked the shopkeeper for pen and ink, entered the private room, and prepared to paint.

But after a while, I saw her holding a pen dipped in paint, sketching on the paper, and a bright peony jumped on the paper. When Wei Xunyan saw it, he also felt very good, "Your painting is really good-looking, but it is slightly better than the painters here." ”

Qingrong said with a smile: "Madame's praise, I really don't dare to be, but it's just that I can paint some tricks." ”

Wei Xunyan said: "After a while, when the family wants to feast on female guests, I want to make some new clothes." It's just that I picked it, but I didn't have the favorite clamping pattern. I heard you say that you can draw, but I still didn't believe it, but now it seems that I am clumsy. ”

Qingrong saw that she was generous, and she didn't see contempt, and she also had a good impression of her in her heart, "Carving insect skills, it's good if Madam doesn't dislike it." She paused and asked, "I wonder what kind of dress Madame wants to make?" ”

Wei Xunyan glanced at her and said with a coquettish smile: "Naturally, the more gorgeous the better." ”

Qingrong smiled, although she didn't dress up like that, she also knew that it was fashionable now. "In my opinion, Madame can also use this pattern to make a few shawls, use some brightly colored materials, and match it with a high-waisted skirt, which also looks rich and gorgeous."

Wei Xunyan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "You can give it a try." She glanced at Qingrong and praised: "I didn't expect you to be more than the palace..." ”

"Madame is polite, I don't know what the rest of the Lady of Tricks wants, and when do you want it?"

"I wonder how long it will take to get the garment?"

Qingrong thought for a moment and said: "I'll ask the shopkeeper, this clamp is not ready-made, I'm afraid it will take effort to make it, and it will take time to cut new clothes, and I have to ask how long it will take." After that, he called the shopkeeper into the private room to ask, which would take more than a month, but the time for the banquet had already passed. Qingrong thought that she was making this dress specifically for this banquet, so she asked Wei Xunyan if she still needed her to paint patterns.

Wei Xunyan disagreed, and said with a smile: "Naturally, don't worry, let's talk about the screen frame, I won't change my mind easily." What's more, this feast is often there, if you want to count it, there will always be one in the future, even if I can't get it this time, I can wear it next time. ”

Qingrong nodded and smiled, this lady was born coquettish, and when she smiled, she was coquettish, and seeing that she was simple in words and deeds, she was really an innocent woman. "What Madame said is that after I finish drawing, I will send it to this shop."

Several people agreed on when to deliver the ready-to-wear and the deposit, and most of them were Qingrong and the shopkeeper said a lot, Wei Xunyan just sat there and listened, as if as long as the person next to her said that it was decided, she would cooperate. After the agreement, Wei Xunyan paid the deposit on the spot.

After the shopkeeper left the private room with a smile, Qingrong reported to Wei Xunyan in order to show his sincerity.

Wei Xunyan nodded and said, "I know, after you finish painting, you will come to the Rongguo Mansion to look for me, so you said that you are here to find Mrs. Wei." ”

Qingrong nodded in response. Wei Xunyan looked at her and sighed with a smile: "You look elegant and quiet, your sister is also beautiful, I think this is like everyone's beauty." ”

Qingrong and Siniang looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Madame's words are really false. ”

Wei Xunyan waved his hand, "But don't mention it, my daughter is very stubborn, she just causes trouble everywhere, but she doesn't stop causing trouble, but she doesn't worry about me, but like her aunt when she was a child." ”

Qingrong didn't know what to say, so she just followed her and said: "Now that the girl is still young, it's normal to love to play, so you don't have to worry about Mrs. when you're older." ”

Wei Xunyan thought for a moment, and then smiled: "That's right, my sister used to be stubborn, but now it's very different, and she is ten points more capable and dignified than me." ”

Qingrong smiled with her again, and it happened that the twilight drum sounded, and the two didn't plan to stay longer, so they said goodbye. The Qingrong sisters also planned to go home, but Qingrong seemed to remember something, so they bowed their heads and ordered Ah Zhen a few words, and they and Qingran got into the carriage first.

"Did you hear me right?" Siniang was taken aback for a moment, her eyes widened, and she looked at Qingrong again.

Ah Zhen nodded with great certainty, "It's true, the shopkeeper told me personally." He has been the shopkeeper in the Xishi store for decades, and he also knows some dignitaries, and Mrs. Nawei loves to come to the Xishi to hang out, and she has seen it many times, so she naturally won't admit her mistake, and he also said that we are lucky..."

Qingrong was also stunned, she had just come to Yongcheng, and she had never seen any officials, so naturally she had never heard of the Rongguo Mansion. Qingran usually doesn't pay attention to these, so naturally she doesn't know, so she arranged for Ah Zhen to ask the shopkeeper for words. When she was in the store that day, the shopkeeper was so earnest, she guessed that Mrs. Wei's identity was not ordinary, but she didn't expect that she was so valuable, she was actually the sister of the current queen!

Siniang frowned and said worriedly: "This is too much of a coincidence!" The queen's mother's family, if they knew that this screen was made by the virtuous concubine, how could they feel comfortable? ”

This is not bad, the ladies in the backyard are afraid that they are not happy to see the concubine favored, let alone to congratulate this joy, they and the Wei family could not be close from the beginning... Qingrong couldn't help frowning, "But if you regret it at this time and don't keep your promise, I'm afraid that you will offend this Mrs. Wei, wouldn't it be even worse?" ”

Siniang answered: "Then find a reason?" Or do you call yourself sick and fool the past? ”

Qingrong shook his head, he still felt that something was wrong, Mrs. Wei was originally idle and looking for recreation, and it was reasonable to be sick for a while, could she still be sick for a lifetime? "Is this inappropriate, I think Mrs. Wei has a pure heart, maybe she won't be able to get along with us in this matter, it's better to follow her meaning generously, and take one step at a time."

Siniang also felt that she had to do this, but she couldn't help but slander her, which was too much of a coincidence, but it was like making a fool of herself...

The morning drum has been sounding for a long time, and as soon as the door is opened, pedestrians will pour out like flowing water. Qingrong had already told the Wang family that he had prepared a carriage to go to the Rongguo Mansion. Lu Wenzhong and the Wang family also couldn't believe that she knew this Mrs. Wei, but after listening to Qingrong's words, they also knew that some things should be unavoidable.

"Siniang really said that she wouldn't go?" Qingrong is dressed up in the room, in the past, she was in the mountains, and it didn't hurt to face the sky all day long, but now she can be regarded as a guest, and it is rude not to dress up again.

She had agreed with Wei Xunyan before, and when the painting was finished, she would show it to her and then send it to the store. Therefore, after finishing the painting yesterday, she bowed to the post and went to the Guogong Mansion.

Song Ying nodded and said: "Siniang specially asked me to inform Sanniang, she woke up this morning and felt unwell, so she didn't go to the Guogong Mansion, let Sanniang be careful." ”

Qingrong: "This is strange, he told me a few days ago that he wanted to go with me to see the grandeur of this mansion." She stopped the movement of the hairpin ring and thought: "She has been in the past few days, since she went out by herself that day, she has not been interested, and she always looks thoughtful, but what happened?" Shall I go and see her first? ”

Song Ying hurriedly shook her head and stopped: "Sanniang don't worry, Siniang is fine, it's just that she hasn't rested well these days, so don't miss the business." ”

Ah Zhen also said: "Yes, Sanniang, Siniang is measured, what can it do?" ”

Qingrong nodded, didn't think much about it, then took his things and went out with the maid. "Then I'll come back and see her."

Out of Kangning Fang, the Lu family's carriage drove in the direction of Yongqing Fang. Qingrong remembered that Siniang said that this Yongqing Fang is a gathering place for princes and nobles, adjacent to the imperial city, and the largest brothel in Naxi City is just a square away, which can be said to be rich and noble. When she was about to pass the gate of Yongqing Fang, she lifted the curtain and could see the magnificent city gate, with black tiles on the vermilion wall and high pecking on the eaves, showing the atmosphere of heaven. If I hadn't come to look for Mrs. Wei today, I don't know when I would have seen such a scene.

The carriage slowly stopped, Qingrong was getting out of the carriage, and Madame Wei had already ordered the maid to wait for her here. At this time, a carriage paved with gilded moire carriage and heavy brocade purple curtain fell on the road, which was full of luxury. Even the maidservants accompanying him outside the carriage were also dressed in extravagant and extraordinary clothes, and anyone who looked at them knew that the carriage was a very wealthy family.

An accompanying maid said to the car: "County Lord, this seems to be the Lu family's carriage." ”

After the maidservant finished speaking, the sound of lifting the curtain sounded in an uproar, and a crisp voice came from inside, "She? Is it here? After saying that, she also got down from the carriage, and when she saw that the person who came was a face she had never seen before, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and motioned to the maid beside her, "You go." ”

The maid understood, so she walked towards Qingrong, looked her up and down, and said arrogantly: "But the lady of the Lu family of Taishi Ling?" ”

Ah Zhen stepped forward and replied, "Exactly, this is my third mother." ”

The maid was a little impatient and said, "I'm asking about the third mother of the Lu family, what did you say when a servant came out to interject?" ”

Ah Zhen was annoyed, but she didn't expect such an unreasonable maid to come, "You! ”

However, the maid beside Mrs. Nawei, Ah Yan, had sharp eyes, and hurriedly asked the maid next to her to go back to report the news, and came out to play a round and said with a smile, "It turned out to be the lord of the Ming county, and it really missed the distance." Then he turned around and introduced to Qingrong: "Sanniang doesn't know, that is the Ming County Lord in the Yongwang Mansion." ”

Qingrong understood, although she didn't know where the county lord's inexplicable hostility towards her came from, she still politely saluted the county lord Ming, "I've seen the county lord, the county lord is fine." ”
