The roses in the Rose Courtyard are in full bloom, and the dense flowers cover the entire courtyard wall, which is as gorgeous as the morning glow, and is full of vitality under the embellishment of green leaves.
Yuxi sat in the courtyard, carefully embroidering roses on a handkerchief. Yuxi doesn't do embroidery for a long time every day, only during the day when the light is good, and he doesn't do it at other times. In my previous life, I did too much embroidery work and hurt my eyes.
Hong Shan walked in with a smile and said, "Girl, Miss Liuyin is here." β
Liu Yin came to the Rose Courtyard every time to send something over, but it was no exception, this time it was not to send something over, but to invite Yuxi over.
Yuxi went to the main courtyard to learn that the Qiu family was going to buy some jewelry for their sisters, and it would look good when they went out the day after tomorrow.
Qiu said: "Each person picks two or three. "It's not that the Qiu family is stingy, but Yujing can't move back when she sees the good things.
Yujing looked at the jewelry in the tray and said, "Two or three are too few, mother, these jewelry are so beautiful, I have to pick two more." β
Qiu Shi was already prepared, and said: "In a few days, there will be a batch of new styles of jewelry in Linglong Pavilion, and it will not be too late to add some more at that time." "Linglong Pavilion is the best jewelry shop in the capital, where the jewelry style is novel, the workmanship is exquisite, and it is the favorite of the ladies of the powerful families.
When Yujing heard this, she was no longer attached to the jewelry in front of her.
Yuxi is the youngest, so every time she picks something, she is the last: "Auntie, the third sister hasn't come yet?" This means that there are first and second, and Yuchen can't choose her well if she doesn't pick her.
Qiu Shi smiled and said, "Your third sister already has it over there." β
When Yujing heard this, a look of jealousy flashed in her eyes. Don't blame Yujing for being jealous, Yuchen's clothes and jewelry are all high-quality, even if Grandpa Guo is particularly partial to Yujing and often sends all kinds of good material jewelry, but compared with Yuchen, it is still a heaven and a place.
Yuxi glanced at Yujing and knew what she was thinking, it can be said that there is Yuchen in the Guogong Mansion, which is the misfortune of all their girls.
Qiu Shi smiled and said, "Yuxi, what are you doing in a daze?"
Yuxi walked to the tray and picked out a pair of ruby string rice flowers and a pair of red jade bead earrings. Influenced by the experience of fleeing, Yuxi is particularly fond of jewelry that looks valuable.
After Yuru and Yujing left, Qiu asked the maid to take out a golden lock of Yingluo's wealth and longevity and give it to Yuxi.
Yuxi hurriedly excused himself and said, "Auntie, this thing is too valuable, I can't ask for it." "This golden lock is exquisitely made, and with the round pearl pendants below, it is worth at least seven or eight hundred taels of silver.
Qiu Shi touched Yuxi's head and said with a smile: "This is my aunt's dowry, and I don't need it now, and my aunt doesn't have a daughter, so it's just right for you." After saying that, he put this golden lock around Yuxi's neck.
Yuxi said with some embarrassment: "Thank you, aunt." In the past two months, Qiu has sent her some things from time to time. In the past, it was all cloth to eat, but this time it was a big head.
Yuxi didn't cover it, and returned to the Rose Courtyard with the Yingluo Longevity Golden Lock, and the news in the Guogong Mansion spread quickly, and within half a day, everyone in the mansion knew that the Qiu family had rewarded Yuxi with good things.
Yujing knew that Yuxi had a golden lock of longevity, and scolded hatefully: "Sycophant." "Although Yujing is domineering, she is not stupid. Qiu's doesn't like her, for the sake of fame, Qiu's won't deduct the share that the public should give, but thinking about the good things in Qiu's hands is tantamount to a fool's dream.
Yuru knew about this and didn't speak for a while. Before Yuxi got smallpox, her mother was very kind to her, but since Yuxi recovered from her illness, her mother has become more and more cold to her.
Qingxuan saw that Yuru was sad again, and said with relief: "Girl, Madame is good to the fourth girl, that's because Madame is thinking about saving her life." Madame still loves the girl very much. β
Yuru was silent and didn't speak, she knew very well whether her mother loved her or not. Mother hates Yujing, and having Yujing in front of her naturally seems to be good to her. But since Yuxi got better, Yuru found out that her mother's kindness to her was actually on the surface.
Yuxi didn't know that because a long-lived lock would make many people miss, she returned to the Rose Courtyard and asked Mo Ju to open the wardrobe.
Mo Ju smiled and asked, "Why did the girl remember to look at the clothes?"
Yuxi said: "If I am going to my uncle's house tomorrow, I will definitely dress more festively." β
On the day of going to the wrinkled house, Yuxi was wearing a water-red dress, combing two mustaches, with a pair of ruby strings of beads wrapped around it, a rich and long-lived golden lock around her neck, and a pair of gold bracelets on her hands, plus white and tender, such a dress was extremely festive.
Yujing is also wearing a bright red dress, but Yujing is a big girl, and dressing is not the same style as Yuxi. Yuru was wearing an autumn-colored dress, and she was dressed up decently, she stood with Yujing, and Yujing was definitely the one who caught the eye.
Unfortunately, this was short-lived. When she saw Yuchen in the upper room, Yujing's face was not very good-looking.
Yuchen was wearing a royal blue dress, and she didn't deliberately dress up, but even if she was just dressed up ordinarily, where she stood she was like a jade girl made by Guanyin Bodhisattva, and immediately turned Yujing, who had been carefully dressed for a long time, into scum in seconds.
Yuxi's dress was originally festive, but with Yuchen's presence, it was immediately lined with tacky. As if she didn't know, Yuxi stepped forward with a smile and shouted, "Third sister." β
Yuchen nodded, and greeted Yuru and Yujing again. It's a pity that every time the two face Yuchen, it's very unnatural.
The Zhou family of Changping Hou Mansion is the old lady's maiden family, and the old lady and the current Changping Hou are siblings. At this time in his last life, Yuxi's health was not yet complete, and he was still recuperating in the Rose Hospital, so the birthday banquet of the prince and wife of the Marquis of Changping had nothing to do with Yuxi.
The Changping Marquis Mansion is not as spacious as the Guogong Mansion, but it is also extremely rich and rich, and it is extremely exquisitely arranged everywhere. The subordinates and servants are also very well-behaved.
When I arrived at the Marquis of Changping's Mansion, the first thing I went to see was Mrs. Zhou. Old Mrs. Zhou was dressed in a golden dark pattern dress with 10,000 characters, and she looked kind and kind.
Old Madam Zhou looked at Yuxi and said with a smile: "This child is happy when he looks at it." "The old people like to be lively, and they also like to look at cute children in white and tender.
When you meet your elders for the first time, you have a greeting gift. Mrs. Zhou rewarded Yuxi with a gold bracelet, which was also inlaid with five huge pearls.
The people in the room looked at the gold bracelet with strange expressions. Without him, although this thing is valuable, no one will wear it, it's too cheesy.
When she went out, the nine girls of the Changping Marquis Mansion asked Yuxi with a smile: "Will you wear the gold bracelet in the future?"
Yuxi didn't want to say this, but said, "It's too heavy to wear." "Of course, the heavier she is, the more she likes it, it's worth it!
Shixu giggled: "Then you can wear it when you grow up." "I've never seen anyone so open-minded.
Yuchen frowned, but she didn't get angry when she looked at Yuxi, and although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't say anything.
When they arrived at the garden, a delicate little girl came over and shouted to Yuchen, "Sister Chen, you are here too!"
Yuchen introduced the two of them: "Sister Shihua, this is my fourth sister. Zhou Shihua himself is ranked sixth, seven years old this year.
Zhou Shihua looked at Yuxi, covered her mouth and smiled: "Cousin Yuxi is so cute." β
Yuxi didn't feel embarrassed, but said generously: "Thank you cousin for the compliment." "It's not as good as Yuchen's beauty and talent, anyway, no matter how you wear it, you have to be scumbag, so you just dress it festively, which makes people like it.
It's not that Yuxi hasn't been to the Zhou family in her previous life, but several girls in the Zhou family are cold and indifferent to her, and she herself has low self-esteem, so she can avoid it when she goes to the Zhou family as a guest. I don't know if it's because of Yuchen's introduction this time, Zhou Shihua has a very kind attitude towards her.
Shiya, the eighth girl of the Zhou family, who is also four years old this year, said with a smile after seeing Yuxi: "Ah, you look so good." β
Yuxi looked at the other party with some embarrassment. This week, Shiya was also wearing a water-red dress, with a circle of red coral beads around her mustache, and a gold jewel on her chest. What's even funnier is that the two are not only dressed, but also have some similarities in appearance, both have round faces, and they are white and tender. If it weren't for Yuxi's shorter, others would definitely think that the two would be twins.
Yuxi is a scumbag in communication, and replied: "You are also very good-looking." β
Zhou Shiya couldn't squeak: "Well, both of us are good-looking." "Zhou Shiya is the only girl in the second room, and she is a concubine, so she is very favored and very naΓ―ve.
When Zhou Shihua heard this, she was speechless: "Fourth sister, is there such a princess who sells melons and boasts?"
Zhou Shiya turned her head sideways, blinked with a pair of big round eyes, and asked, "Sixth sister, don't you think I look good with my fourth cousin?"
Zhou Shihua chuckled and said, "Good-looking, my eighth sister is the best." Eighth sister, fourth sister is boring alone, can you play with her?"
Shiya gave Zhou Shihua the back of her head and said to Yuxi: "Cousin, there are a lot of delicious foods in the pavilion over there, let's go over there." β
Yuxi knows that her poor communication must be improved, and making more friends is not only about talking to multiple people, but also accumulating contacts. She naturally won't shirk Shiya's overtures.
Shiya took Yuxi to a pavilion and asked the maid to bring fruit snacks. Swept the fruit on the table, and said to the maid next to him, "Go and bring the lychee sent by my uncle." β
Yuxi has eaten lychees, but he has eaten very little, after all, it was transported from southern Fujian, and ordinary people can't afford to eat it. Rao is the Guogong Mansion, and he doesn't eat it much: "No need, that thing is very cheap!"
Shiya pursed her lips and smiled: "This is sent by my uncle from southern Fujian, and I don't need money." β
Yuxi was a little embarrassed: "It's better to keep it for yourself!"
Shiya felt that Yuxi was too abrasive: "I'll eat it for you, why are there so many words?"
The maid quickly brought a plate of lychees. After Shiya peeled it off, it revealed the tender and white flesh inside, and seeing that Yuxi was not in a hurry, she said, "Hurry up and eat, otherwise they won't be able to eat when they come." "It's a private collection, not for everyone.
Yuxi thought for a while and didn't be polite, the two of you and I ate one by one.
Zhou Shihua looked at Yuxi and Shiya from a distance, felt that the two got along very well, and said to Yuchen with a smile: "I heard that the fourth cousin is very wooden before, I think it's quite interesting!"
Yuchen also smiled: "Since the fourth sister has recovered from her illness, she has become much smarter. β
Zhou Shihua thought it was very interesting. This time smallpox ravaged the capital, and four children in their family were infected and died. Those who can survive are lucky.
When she went back, Zhou Shiya also took Yuxi's hand and said, "Cousin, next time we will wear the same clothes, well, we have to wear the same jewelry." In this way, when others look at us, they will definitely think that we are twins. Hehe, it's so interesting to think about. β
Yuxi had a wooden face, this little girl had been talking in Thunderbolt Bala for a long time in the morning, and she was not too tired, she was really nagging: "I'll talk about it next time!"
Go to the Marquis Mansion of Changping and get a chatter friend.
Yuchen had been to the Changping Marquis Mansion several times, and knew the temperament of the eighth girl, so he said to Yuxi with a smile: "Cousin Ya is actually very easy to get along with in addition to liking to talk. β
Yu Xi said with a wooden face: "I know. "People have shortcomings, and she has many shortcomings. As long as you have a good heart, everything else is fine.
Qiu Shi knew that Zhou Shiya asked Yuxi to wear the same clothes as her next time, and thought it was very interesting: "Yuxi, wait for next time you will dress up like Shiya, I look at it very interesting." β
Yuxi immediately shook his head and said, "Don't." "She doesn't want to be looked at like a monkey!
Qiu Shi just joked, and when he saw that Yuxi was unwilling, he didn't say anything about it: "Yuxi, you have to go out and walk around more in the future." "The maid told her about what happened just now, Yuxi's appearance today is not good, but because Yuxi is going out for the first time, she is not harsh. However, she decided to take Yuxi out to socialize more in the future, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to speak, which would be a big trouble.
Yuxi naturally won't object: "Okay." She watched Yuchen and Zhou Shihua mingle with each other, getting along so well, she was envious and ashamed in her heart. It is not unreasonable for the old lady to favor Yuchen, Yuchen is impeccable in every aspect.
Thank you Li Shiyi, landyshiu for the reward, and thank you for your collection message, group hug.
