Chapter 16 We Are All Slaves of Comparison

Zhang Mengyao saw that the opportunity had come, and when she was dragged by Zhang Mengfan's hand, she fell down on the stone steps inside the door.

"Oops", Zhang Mengyao held her ankle and said to Zhang Mengfan, who was stunned on the side, with a crying voice: "Third sister, why do you have to work so hard?"

Seeing this, Meng Shi even asked someone to help Zhang Mengyao up, glanced at Zhang Mengfan, and didn't say anything.

Zhang Mengyao barely stood up, bowed to Meng Shi with her feet and feet, and said with a crying voice: "It's all Mengyao's bad, crooked feet, so I'm afraid I can't go." ”

Meng Shi thought for a while and said, "Then go back and rest, it just so happens that the doctor is coming to see your sixth sister, go back and ask the girl in your room to send a message to show you your feet, and other things, I'll talk about it when I come back." ”

When Zhang Mengyao heard this, she was helped back by the maid, Zhang Mengfan saw that the matter was pulled on herself, and she was unhappy, but it was difficult to argue, so she could only be quiet and not speak.

Jiu Ge and Xia Zhi are now witnessing everything behind them, and they are speechless, this battle between wealthy families is really in all aspects. But Jiu Ge didn't bother to care about these things, they fought if they loved to fight, and when they found the clues of Xiao Jin'er, who would stay here?

The group went out, and the mother-in-law in the outer courtyard was in charge of a bunch of people and three carriages. Meng Shi naturally sat in the first car, Jiu Ge and Zhang Mengke sat in one, and Zhang Mengfan took the last one. got into the car, the accompanying maid and lady walked on one side, and then there were the grandmothers in the outer courtyard, a large number of people in Wuyang, so not magnificent.

The road is slippery on a snowy day, although the snow on the road has been cleared, but the ground is still wet, and it will freeze again when it snows.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is in the north, and to the west is the official road on the periphery. The outer official road is just a block, so the road is smooth, and soon you will reach Xishan.

At the foot of the West Mountain, the pines and cypresses are evergreen, and the dark green color corresponds to the white snow of the branches, and the landscape is picturesque.

The group got off one after another, and the foot of the mountain had been surrounded and guarded by the officers and soldiers summoned by the imperial historian, and the mountain pass was waiting for some grandmothers, and when they saw that Meng took three girls to get out of the car, they immediately greeted them.

The leading grandmother led everyone to greet Meng and the female relatives in the rear, and said, "Please take the ladies up the mountain to play first, and then go to invite the lady when the nunnery has prepared the meal." ”

Meng Shi said a few polite words, and then took the three girls and the accompanying maid and grandmother up the mountain, and Jiu Ge followed behind without saying much.

At this time, the snow has stopped and the wind is not blowing, so it is a good time to enjoy the scenery. Walking to the mountainside, a quaint nunnery appears in a field of red plums, which is extremely elegant. There are many people in the red plum forest, all of them are young ladies and girls who enjoy the flowers, all of them are dressed up amazingly, and they are really more beautiful than flowers.

Zhang Mengke led Jiu Ge to the flowers, and the cold fragrance of red plum suddenly hit Jiu Ge's face. The clothes Zhang Mengke wore only showed its effect at this moment, in the red plum and white snow, the only missing touch of sky blue was worn on Zhang Mengke's body at this moment, which was indescribably pleasing to the eye, attracting countless eyes.

Of course, the audience will also focus on Jiu Ge behind Zhang Mengke, this cold person, in the lively party, seems too dusty and cold, and it is difficult to approach. However, the stunning face and outstanding figure cannot be concealed by a plain dress.

Soon, Meng's anger became in the pile of official wives, and all the ladies were complimenting her dignified and demure eldest daughter and her stunning second daughter, and the admiration was endless, and Meng gradually turned to Zhang Mengfan in the distance and smiled slightly. Yes, even if her fifth aunt and the prime minister are as deep as the sea, the daughter born will also look at the eyes of her mother-in-law, not even half of the beauty of her daughters, and in the future, plus the background, the status of their mother and daughter is not comparable to the so-called five aunts born in Xianmen.

Zhang Mengfan here didn't know about this powerful relationship, and made friends with a few young ladies from Jiuqing's family. The royal family of Xiliang Kingdom is the top, then the family of the princes, then the three dukes (that is, the prime minister, the Taiwei, and the imperial historian), and then the Jiuqing (that is, Fengchang, Lang Zhongling, Weiwei, Taifu, Yanwei, Dianke, Zongzheng, Zhiguan Internal Envoy, Shaofu), and finally the local officials.

Zhang Mengfan can't find a sense of superiority among the princes and the three dukes, but it is different in the Jiuqing family, the prime minister's status is much higher than them, although Zhang Mengfan is a concubine, but her status is also with the prime minister's house, and she is at the top of the Jiuqing family.

At this moment, Zhang Mengfan looked back and forth on the road, she heard her father say that there will be a prince of the family who will come to the banquet today, and this lunch is almost over, and no one has come.

"Sister Fan has been looking at the way, but what about the family?" Li Yuxiu, the young lady of the Li family in Shaofu, looked at the two Jiu Ge in the distance, and asked pretending to be concerned.

"Isn't Sister Fan's family on the other side, it's really talented, and even a girl of mine likes it very much. "I don't know which lady on the side also followed to help.

Soon, the topic of everyone's conversation changed from Zhang Mengfan to the two of Jiu Ge who were unaware in the distance.

"Yes, especially the eldest lady, her eyes for picking clothes are first-class, seeing that she is all blue, gentle and not quiet, she is really a wealthy lady, we can't compare, we will only pick some cheesy red. After the woman finished speaking, she also deliberately glanced at the orange-red clothes on Zhang Mengfan's body.

Zhang Mengfan was so angry, he was all kinds of unconvinced, but he couldn't say anything on his face, since his clothes and makeup had been compared, he couldn't lose in terms of bearing. Then he smiled and said: "Yes, although my eldest sister is a little pampered, after all, she was born well, and I can't envy it." When everyone heard the word pampered, they slowly changed their minds.

Zhang Mengfan saw that the goal was achieved, and his face was a little proud, most of these people, when facing people who are better than themselves, will rack their brains to think of what they are better than the other party, so as to find a balance. She Zhang Mengfan is best at grasping this kind of balance, and the same is true for others.

But this Mengke is really hateful, she can't compare to her status at home, and she can't compare to her beauty outside, so she has to find a fault in her and let everyone see it.

Zhang Mengfan thought so, and slowly walked out of the crowd and went to the nunnery.

Jiuge here is really boring, a group of children at the age of high school students just look at those flowers that are no different, and they look at it for an hour, and they are also endurance enough. Jiu Geyuan was still interested in looking at the beautiful girl, and after watching it for an hour, he was about to be blinded. And this eldest lady looks delicate, her ability to stand is not bad, and she doesn't get tired of standing for an hour?

Fortunately, at this time, the sister-in-law of the nunnery came over to shout for dinner, and Jiu Ge was amnesty, and immediately dragged the eldest sister to Meng's side.

The vegetarian food in the nunnery has no taste, it is not as good as the vegetarian food in the modern temple, and Jiuge did not eat much, so he retreated to the teahouse next door to drink tea.
