Chapter 70: I heard that you fell and changed your piano practice
The next few days of the Marquis of Changning's mansion were quite peaceful, and the mansion was preparing for Gu Xiang's marriage in an orderly manner.
The Jiang family invited a grandmother to teach Gu Xiang etiquette, and later felt that one sheep was also herded, and two sheep were also released, so people called Gu Ying and Gu Yun over.
The grandmother was said to be very harsh and harsh, which made several girls miserable, and in a few days, Gu Yun, who was a little fleshy, lost some weight.
Fortunately, Xie Yixiao is recuperating, and these things have nothing to do with her.
But she wasn't idle, her health was better, she began to practice calligraphy, and secretly took out the calligraphy written by the original owner before to practice, for fear that she would be exposed in the future.
Fortunately, she also has some foundation, and her daughter's font is often delicate and elegant, which is originally a little similar, but it has become seventy or eighty percent after a few days of study.
The other is a problem of skill, the original owner is good at Konghou, she doesn't know this, but has two points of study on the piano art, so she simply let Mingjing say that she was seriously ill, and she realized that she fell and changed her piano, and she didn't touch Konghou anymore.
Plan pass.
The time soon came to the seventh day of the fourth month, which was the day before Gu Xiang got married, Xie Yixiao took someone to add makeup to Gu Xiang.
Previously, Gu Xiang was arranged by the Zhou family to live in Youruo Garden, and later after returning from Yunzhong Temple, he cleaned up a new courtyard for her, so that she and her maidservant moved in, and this courtyard was named Xiangzhuyuan.
It was already noon when Xie Yixiao came, and there were many girls in the courtyard talking inside, lively and lively.
When Xie Yixiao went in, the girl on the side hurriedly beckoned her to come and sit down: "Yixiao, you are here, come and sit down." ”
"Just come." She smiled, and then gave the box to Gu Xiang, "Congratulations to the second cousin." ”
Gu Xiang was wearing a garnet-red waist-length skirt, wearing a large-sleeved gown embroidered with tangled flowers of the same color, his hair was neatly combed, and he was wearing a silk inlaid lotus hairpin on his head, with beads hanging on the side, and a small hairpin of the same color between the buns, which looked dignified and festive.
"Thank you, cousin." Gu Xiang smiled and thanked him.
Gu Ying, who was talking to someone on the side, rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "I don't know what my cousin gave the second sister makeup, second sister, open it and take a look." ”
Ordinary people will not open the gift on the spot, I am afraid that the gift is general, and the face will not be able to hang it at that time, unless the person who gives the gift thinks that the gift she gave is very dignified, so let you open it and take a look.
The smile on Gu Xiang's face remained unchanged, and he glanced at Gu Ying lightly: "Fourth sister." ”
Gu Ying didn't follow: "Second sister, isn't it just a look, it's not a big deal, didn't my grandmother send a lot of good things to my cousin a few days ago, I'm just curious what kind of gifts my cousin gave to my second sister to add makeup, are you sisters not curious?" ”
Gu Ying was really unconvinced by Gu Xiang and Xie Yixiao in her heart.
She is the daughter of the long house, the daughter of the Hou Ye, and the granddaughter of the Jiang family, but the family affairs of the Hou of Wu'an fell on Gu Xiang in the second room, and the Jiang family also preferred her granddaughter Xie Yixiao even more, and gave her everything.
It's hateful!
The three or two girls sitting around her immediately nodded in agreement.
Xie Yixiao smiled softly: "It's not a big deal, since the fourth cousin wants to see it, just take a look." ”
Gu Xiang laughed: "Since my cousin said so, then I'll open it and take a look." ”
As he spoke, Gu Xiang opened the box, and there was a pair of lotus gold bracelets inside, the bracelets were slender, but the lines were delicate and meticulous, and the workmanship was very good.
This makeup gift is not too expensive, but it is not light, and no one can tell how bad her gift is.
Gu Ying pursed her lips lightly, her face was a little unsightly.
At this time, someone sighed: "Isn't this the latest twelve-flower gold bracelet from the Treasure Pavilion?" ”
"Twelve gold bracelets?" The people on the side were also surprised when they heard this, "It is indeed the lotus gold bracelet among the twelve flowers." ”
Treasure Pavilion is one of the three famous silver buildings in the Imperial City, with fine workmanship as the selling point, the things made are indeed more delicate than others, this spring Treasure Pavilion has launched a twelve-flower gold bracelet, a flower and a pair of bracelets, a total of three sets.
It's not too expensive, a pair is about two hundred taels, which is nothing for these wealthy daughters, but it is a little difficult to grab, especially to grab the tricks they want, it is even more difficult.
However, few people know that the Treasure Pavilion is the Xie family's industry, Xie Yixiao wants to buy this bracelet, it is very simple, let people say it and someone will send it over.
didn't even spend the money, and the Xie family's account was recorded.
Gu Ying's face was even more unsightly.
Gu Xiang touched the bracelet, and then laughed: "Let my cousin bother, I especially like this pair of bracelets." ”
Xie Yi smiled: "It's good if the second cousin likes it." ”
Xie Yixiao sat down in the crowd, and a maidservant brought a cup of tea, and several girls gathered around her to talk.
"I heard you're getting better, how do you feel now?"
"I look much better than before."
"It's finally relieved, we have been worried about you before, and now we are relieved to see you like this."
Xie Yixiao and Gu You used to have a very good reputation outside, known as 'Changning Ershu', Xie Yixiao is gentle and kind, Gu You is dignified and noble, and there are many little sisters outside.
When she was sick, many other girls came to see her.
She smiled: "It's better, but the illness is a bit serious, and I need to recuperate for a year and a half to get better." ”
"I see you've lost a lot of weight, but you're smiling a little bit more than you used to."
In the past, Xie Yi laughed at the girl Huaichun, but unfortunately the loved one did not have her in his heart, and he couldn't be a little depressed, but now it is different.
"I heard that you fell and changed your piano?" One of the girls asked about it.
That girl is Qin Yinqing, the daughter of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, her father is the deputy of Changning Hou, this person has also learned to be a good person, but she has been suppressed by Xie Yixiao before, and she wants to compete with her.
Xie Yi glanced at her with a smile, and his face didn't change: "I didn't fall, such an expensive Konghou can fall there, and now I put it in the warehouse, but I won't play it in the future, I will only play the piano in the future." ”
"Why? Why don't you play it? She stood up suddenly, her face flushed with anxiety.
Probably because the person who had always regarded her opponent suddenly stopped playing, she suddenly lost her goal, and she never had a chance to beat her opponent again.
Xie Yi belched with a smile, and then sighed: "There are too many interesting things in the world, why bother with the same, just suddenly want to change one, I will learn the piano hard in the future." ”
Qin Yinqing held her breath: "Really don't play anymore?" ”
"No, I've already 'wrestled' Mingzhi, how can I regret it."
