After sitting down, Xu Nuo held a Tang Pozi in her hands. [Full text reading] The cloth bag containing Tang Pozi has a butterfly-style pattern embroidered by Chun Tang, which is very delicate.
After listening to Du Baniang's words, Xu Nuo glanced at the bastard's maid standing behind him. His eyes slid over the thin skirt that the maid was supposed to wear during the handover between summer and autumn, and then he quickly looked at Qiyue.
She had only been beaten in the morning of July. When she saw the narrow smile in Xu Nuo's eyes, she immediately understood what she meant.
The fingers in his sleeves moved, and a stone quickly hit the maid's leg.
Qi Qi doesn't know martial arts, and his physical strength is average, but he practiced his finger strength a few years ago in order to learn darts, and the force of the pebbles he pops out is strong enough.
The bastard's maidservant was born in the family and had not suffered much since she was a child. She grew up like half a master. How could she withstand such a blow. He endured the pain to keep from screaming, but his body refused to obey and he fell to his knees on the ground.
The maid spent a long time picking and choosing today before choosing such a skirt that is not eye-catching, has beautiful embroidery and is suitable for the occasion.
Although the skirt was a little thin and did not match the weather, and it would definitely feel cold when she put it on, she still wore it decisively for the sake of beauty.
Little did she know that it was precisely because the skirt was thin enough that stones hit her legs.
Hearing a thump behind her, Xu Nuo removed her hand from Tang Pozi, turned around and asked with a sweet smile: "Where did this maid come from? She knelt down as soon as she came up, but she did something wrong?" The hairpin carved by her elder brother, It's not like just anyone who wants to see her has to be sent over eagerly.
The maidservant is the most proud person around Wang Banniang. Wherever she goes in the Wang family, people will laugh and call her Sister Hongshan. She has never been so ugly.
Hongshan felt a little aggrieved when Xu Nuo said this and stood up without thinking. Want to argue. Someone was clearly trying to harm her just now, otherwise her legs wouldn't be hurting for no reason, and they are still hurting now. Her skin was so delicate that there was probably a big bruise on her leg.
As soon as she stood up, she heard someone scolding: "Ms. Xu Liu, did you ask me to get up? Why are you so unruly!" She knelt behind her master for no reason, which was considered to have disturbed her master. He couldn't get up without nodding.
The maid saw clearly who was speaking. He lowered his head and knelt down again.
Promise ears to be sensitive and have a strong sense of direction. There was no need to look back to know that the voice came from Mrs. Ding.
What does Mrs. Ding mean by these words?
Will it help her or harm her?
It helps in the moment but hurts later.
The Xu family and the Ding family are related by marriage. How could Mrs. Ding, Mrs. Dou, be so inhumane and shout out like this without any regard?
If Mrs. Ding said this impulsively because she was devoted to Xu Nuo, Xu Nuo would not believe it. After all, Mrs. Ding has been in the circle of ladies for twenty years. This little thing won't make her lose her sense and yell.
Could it be that she is dissatisfied with her husband's sister and Ding?
In a blink of an eye, Xu promised to make this guess. I sighed in my heart that Bianjing is indeed a powerful place. Every word of the people here is a trap, and every look in their eyes is a drama.
She vaguely felt that even if Xu Qian, who was thoughtful and calculating, came here, she would be bitten into pieces.
Today is simply the pinnacle of house fighting. It was better for her not to get into trouble. She really didn't want to waste her brain cells on such internal intrigues. However, there was no way her shoes would get wet when she walked along the river, so she had to be more prepared.
Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo both belong to the Five Ghosts. They are all treacherous officials. If Wang Qin can successfully let Zhao Heng forge the heavenly book and go to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist monk. It has a lot to do with Ding Wei's early instigation, and the two of them interacted with each other.
Xu Nuo was very excited when she first traveled to Xu's house and learned that Ding was Ding Wei's sister. But now, having met Fan Zhongyan, a model of loyalty and virtue, she only has a heart to avoid Ding Wei. .
She didn't know what the relationship between Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo was during this period, but Ding Wei was a second-rank official who was involved in political affairs, and Wang Qinruo was a first-rank privy envoy, both of whom were very important figures in the court. If such an incident caused the two families to have a relationship, After a gap, she was really in trouble.
Xu Nuo turned around, and sure enough, he saw a woman in her forties who was wearing low-key clothing sitting next to the bastard, looking at her, but the probing look in her eyes was fleeting.
Lu's expression remained unchanged and she said with a smile: "I am afraid that this maid was dazzled by the gorgeous furnishings of Prince Ning's Mansion and walked to the wrong place. After she stood firm, she realized that the person in front of her was not her master. She lost her mind and knelt down. "
The words not only praised Prince Ning's palace, but also avoided the previous incident of the bastard asking for a hairpin, and made the reason why Mrs. Ding scolded her irrelevant.
Xu Nuo was shocked. Her mother was so powerful. Even if she stayed by the river all day long, her shoes would not get wet.
Mrs. Lu was a little dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Ding in her heart, but it was difficult to pierce this layer of paper, because her current status was not enough, so she could only whitewash the peace, but she would never bow her head.
Chuntang stood behind Xu Nuo, with a calm face, but the hand in his sleeve was already sweating.
There was a stone under her feet and she didn't dare to move.
She just saw with her own eyes the moment when the lady and Qiyue looked at each other, and she also saw with her own eyes that the stone flew out of Qiyue's sleeve and landed on the crook of the maid's leg. If it weren't for the blanket here, someone would definitely have noticed it when the stone fell to the ground!
When did Qi Qi become so bold? How dare he use such a method in such an occasion? If any lady discovered it, it wouldn't be a matter of how many times he would be slapped.
Chuntang was frightened for a while. He glanced at Qiyue and found that her expression did not change. She bit the tip of her tongue to calm herself down.
After returning home, you must ask your wife and Qiyue!
The bastard was unhappy and wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang beside her.
Then a few more ladies came in and sat down quietly after saluting. The previous farce seemed to have passed away and no one talked about it again.
Everyone in this room started talking nonsense again, Xu Nuo listened, and all they could feel was the glint of swords and shadows in the hall. What was interesting was that these "sword-wielding" people were either smiling or cheerful, and all of them were kind-hearted, gentle and virtuous.
Xu Nuo was extremely bored and glanced at the two county heads sitting on either side of Liu Xiuyi and Princess Ning.
The Lord of Jiaren County was very elegantly dressed, and his hair accessories were even more dazzling. He looked down on everyone and talked to several ladies of the same age.
On the other side, County Lord Lejiang promised to meet her for the first time. She was in her early twenties, with a delicate and elegant face, and her expression was neither happy nor worried. She was very calm, showing the dignity that a royal family should have.
County Princess Lejiang was the only daughter of King Chen, the fifth son of Song Taizong. King Chen had no children. County Princess Lejiang was doted on when she was young. Unfortunately, King Chen passed away nine years ago, when she was only thirteen years old.
Fortunately, County Master Lejiang made a good marriage when she was twelve years old. She was not completely helpless without her father, and she got married as soon as she had hair extensions.
Le Jiang held the five-year-old little county head in his arms. The little county head had a chubby face. His eyes were like two grapes. The black pupils were large and very energetic. The lips were standard cherry lips, both red. It was small and kept opening and closing, making Liu Xiuyi on the side laugh non-stop.
The child seemed to be more perceptive than the adults. Xu Nuo just looked over there with his peripheral vision. Unexpectedly, the little county owner suddenly turned his head, winked at her, and laughed.
Xu Nuo immediately looked away and calmly picked up the tea cup.
County Master Lejiang followed his daughter's gaze and smiled slightly, without saying much.
After lunch, the snow happened to stop.
Liu Xiuyi and Princess Ning held hands and led a group of female relatives out to enjoy the plum blossoms.
Although the snow has stopped, cloaks to keep out the cold are indispensable. The maids took out their cloaks and put them on their masters.
Liu Xiuyi's cloak is pink, but Princess Ning's is pure red.
Xu Nuo saw a flash of pride in Princess Ning's eyes, and secretly thought that Liu Xiuyi could wear a red cloak years ago, or a golden Nine Phoenix cloak. The more proud Princess Ning is now, the more unhappy she will be in the future.
The snow on the road leading to Merlin had been swept away, and no moisture stained their boots even after they walked all the way.
When they arrived at the backyard, Xu Nuo saw a more beautiful view than expected.
She had been to many well-known scenic spots in her previous life, but she had never seen such a peaceful scenery. This plum forest was indeed worth seeing and could be regarded as one of the most beautiful sights in the capital.
A piece of white connects the sky and the earth, and only the red plums are hidden under the snow, which is vaguely visible, and people can't help but get closer and take a closer look.
The plum grove is in the shape of a long strip, about ten paces wide but seventy or eighty paces long, dividing the garden of Prince Ning's Mansion into two areas.
There is a hexagonal pavilion on each side, and there are already maids waiting outside the pavilion. One is for the ladies, and the other is for the ladies who have not left the pavilion. The pavilions on both sides are not far apart, and everything on the opposite side can be seen clearly. Chu.
Xu Nuo gave Lu a reassuring look and walked over with Chun Tang and Qi Qi.
She originally thought she would see Hu Ling or Aunt Twenty-One today, but unexpectedly she didn't see any of them. According to their status, they should have been invited. Why not come?
Appreciating snowy plum blossoms is indispensable without reciting poems, composing poems, playing the piano and ordering tea. There was no problem with the last two promises, but she was half-aware of the first two. If she really had to write lyrics, she would have to steal famous works from this period and later, but she couldn't remember even a single sentence of the poem about Mei at the moment.
In Bianjing, this type of banquet is an opportunity for the ladies who have not left the court to show off their talents and accomplishments. If they can gain some fame on such occasions, the benefits will gradually appear in the future.
Sure enough, when everyone entered the pavilion, some asked for pens and ink, and others asked for harp.
When someone was playing the piano, Wang Biniang walked up to Xu Nuo and asked with a smile: "Xu Liu Niang, I heard that you have been studying female craftsmanship with Mrs. Qiao recently. How are you doing now?" There was unconcealed ridicule in her tone.
When the bastard said this, others immediately asked Xu Nuo with concern. Curiosity was secondary, the main point was to make Xu Nuo lose face.
Xu Nuo smiled, and out of the corner of his eye he saw a mocking look of pride on the brightly dressed County Lord Jiaren, while County Lord Lejiang had the same calm expression as before.
