Unexpectedly, the old lady was not polite to me. She stepped forward and bowed, and then looked at me from top to bottom with a solemn expression.
I have seen this murderous look on my head teacher before!
Before I could say anything, the other party took a pre-emptive strike and surrounded me while pouring beans out of a bamboo tube: "This must be the Prime Minister's wife. She is born with ice muscles and jade bones. She is naturally noble. It's a good sign~ "
"Look at this skin, it's like a peeled egg. It's crystal clear, delicate and smooth."
"Kangkang's figure is graceful and graceful."
"And these eyebrows, with blue eyes full of love, I am a woman who is easily moved. No wonder the Prime Minister is so fond of me."
I thought, it’s not good, I just blindly praised him when I first came up, there must be some tricks behind me!
Sure enough, I started to be fussy about my clothes.
As she spoke, she began to admire me with scornful eyes: "What a pity, your lady's dressing sense is really inferior to others."
"You must know that among the wives of officials of the same rank in Beijing, none of their outfits have been hand-made by me, Feng Baobao, and they are dressed in beautiful jewel shoes, which makes them look graceful and luxurious."
I continued to shut up, wanting to see what she was doing here.
Liu Huai'an next to him became impatient, and he instructed the old lady: "You can do it with some tricks. Have you ever remembered that you have a heavy responsibility?"
Feng Baobao laughed so hard that his red hair and misty hair on his temples almost disappeared: "Don't worry, Mr. Prime Minister, after the ingenious craftsmanship of the folk women, you can expect to have your eyes opened."
As she said this, she took out a ruler from her arms and started gesturing at me. She measured everything from the cuffs and waistline to the placket and hem of my clothes carefully and thoroughly.
While gesticulating, he muttered: "Madam is also very lucky. The prime minister ordered clothes for the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter for her as soon as she arrived. Among them, the most fashionable styles in Beijing are mainly used."
"In addition to New Year's Eve, New Year, and Lantern Festival costumes are also being booked. I heard that there are also the latest Zhu Chai jewelry."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, civilian women serve so many official wives. I have never seen any lady receive such an honor. I guess only the ladies in the palace can match the lady."
Listening to her talk with gusto, my heart sank little by little.
What exactly is Liu Huaian's plan? Doesn't he love Dai Shishi the most? Why are there so many troubles all of a sudden?
What's more, he bought an outfit with me in such a big way, and I was extremely worried that my previous attempt to win over Dai Shishi would turn out to be nothing.
I looked up at the sky sadly, wondering if the plot in the book was not like this...
Did my appearance change the plot of the book?
When I think of this, I feel like I have a headache.
Liu Huai'an looked at me with a sad face, and couldn't help but gnashed his teeth. It wasn't until Feng Baobao narrowed his eyes and left with a smile after accepting the deposit, that he lectured me with a cold face: "I said you should give me some money in front of outsiders. Are you going to split the noodles? What's the point of crying all the time? Could it be that I love you the wrong way?"
I rolled my eyes and decided to give it up: "Yes, the prime minister is right! But what is the purpose of the prime minister's sudden display of power? Is it to take me to the palace for a banquet?"
Liu Huai'an would easily get headaches when he saw me. He decided not to see me as a little girl, so he had to walk away and said as he walked: "Don't ask, just listen to my arrangements when the time comes."
After finally dispersing, I slumped down on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't do anything, but I felt very tired.
I told Huaizhu: "Zhuzhu, give me a cup of Pu'er to refresh me."
"Hey." Huaizhu agreed and cleverly started to do it.
Half a month comes in a blink of an eye, that is, New Year’s Eve.
The day before entering the palace, Feng Baobao sent his coachman and the maids to bring me several custom-made clothes, as well as the rouge and gouache I ordered from Baoxiangfang, and the Zhuchai jewelry from Liuli Pavilion.
They were all piled up in my bedroom. At a glance, the room was filled with gold and jade, which blinded my eyes.
All the maids and women crowded at the door to join in the fun, and the news naturally reached Dai Shishi's ears.
She was restless in her yard and finally decided to run over and have a look.
When she entered the door, she saw that the bed was covered with rich clothes, from the inner snow shirt to the bean paste-colored tube top, as well as the silk-cotton double-breasted jacket that gradually dyed orange and gradually dyed orange with embroidered pictures of birds of wealth, inlaid with pearls and peonies. The patterned boots looked so jeweled and splendid that she secretly gritted her teeth.
She stared at the clothes and said sourly: "I didn't expect that the prime minister really dotes on my sister. The clothes on hand are worth a lot of money, not to mention the most popular gradient dyeing style at the moment. It is a one-of-a-kind choice and rarely worn by anyone." .”
I looked at the bed full of similar styles, both beautiful and too gaudy. There were also red hairpins, earrings and jade bracelets all over the room.
She said directly to Dai Shishi: "You can choose whatever you like. I can't wear them all anyway."
As a result, Dai Shishi thought I was humiliating her. She bit her lower lip and calmed down her anger again and again before sneering at me: "I still treasure the bellyband my sister gave me last time. How can I dare to ask for something from my sister again? Otherwise, teach me The prime minister knows that he still can’t break my legs?”
She began to think that I had some agenda in giving her these things. On the surface, I pretended to be generous and ignored her past grudges, but in fact, I just wanted to win back Liu Huaian's heart. She didn't expect that I was such a scheming bitch.
And if she thinks about it, even if I am willing to give her something, I will definitely pick out the rest. The best ones have already been locked in the cabinet by Huaizhu, so why would she let them pass by?
I saw that she was as illiterate as ever, so I was no longer as knowledgeable as her, so I told Huaizhu to put everything away for emergencies.
The table full of gold, silver, and jade could be exchanged for at least a hundred taels of gold. It wouldn't be a bad idea to keep it as start-up capital in the future. It was Liu Huaian's gift anyway, so don't waste it.
Later I heard from Huaizhu that Dai Shishi often cried in front of Liu Huai'an, saying how unfair her position was. She didn't get the title of aunt, and she didn't get gifts like me, so she might as well Let Liu Huaian be sent back to Tianxiang Pavilion.
For this reason, Liu Huai'an did not give a clear response, but just spoke vaguely to comfort her, thinking about making a decision after the new year.
The next day, early in the morning, before dawn, Huaizhu pulled me out of bed. Seeing me sleepy and yawning, he stuffed a heater into my arms, and then let me sit in a drowsy state. Start dressing me up in front of the dressing table.
There were two maids waiting next to me with trays. One had the goose-yellow suit, the other had the jewelry. There was also rouge and gouache on the table in front of me.
Anyway, Liu Huai'an insisted on bringing me to attend, so I had no choice but to let them do what they wanted. After all, the prime minister's wife must not be too humble when entering the palace, right?
I woke up later and asked Huaizhu: "Will I be able to see Fan Fengchu when I enter the palace later?"
Huaizhu quickly put makeup on me while answering: "It is said that everyone should go to the fifth rank and above. Hanlin Xiuzhuan happens to be within the fifth rank, which is the passing line. No accident, the young lady can meet the eldest lady."
I smiled at the blurry bronze mirror: "Okay, you can make her look prettier for me. I want that girl Fan Fengchu to look good in her movies."
Huaizhu stopped and asked me: "I will definitely dress the lady up beautifully, but why should the lady look good on her?"
I glanced at her: "Have you forgotten the last time she bullied you in Taifu's Mansion?"
