The previous eldest lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion wore clothes that Bai Yunlian didn't want. When she was fifteen, she still didn't have any new clothes that truly belonged to her.
Bai Lingyue is different today. She is wearing the best red brocade dress with dark flowers. Its style and quality can be said to be one of the best in the capital.
Bai Yunlian and Bai Yunzhu's eyes were the widest. Even if the entire Bai family loved her, she had never worn such good clothes.
"Sister, this dress is really nice." Bai Yunlian said sourly.
"Isn't this the cloud brocade of Shu given by the emperor as my mother's dowry?" Bai Zixiang recognized it.
Yunjin from the Kingdom of Shu is currently the best fabric. It is woven from the silk spun by silkworms raised in the mountains of the Kingdom of Shu.
Yunjin from Shu is smoother than a baby's skin, warm in winter and cool in summer. The annual tribute from the Jin Dynasty was only a hundred horses, and only favored concubines and princes in the royal family could get them.
However, every year after the Yunjin from the Kingdom of Shu paid tribute to the capital of the Jin Dynasty, the emperor would reward the Zhenguo Duke's Palace with a few pieces. Therefore, in the entire Jin Dynasty, apart from the royal family, only the Zhenguo Duke's Palace had such treasures.
"Yes, this is Shu Yunjin. It's really comfortable to wear. I made one for my mother and one for myself a while ago."
Bai Lingyue also turned around in front of everyone very showily, her clothes fluttering like a fairy.
Bai Yunlian's eyes were red with jealousy. She also knew that there was Shu Yunjin in her wife's dowry, and she had always wanted it. Her brothers also mentioned it to their mother, but Zhou Luoyi rejected it.
Now that Bai Lingyue sees the clothes made of precious Shu Yun brocade, how can she not be jealous.
"Bai Lingyue, how can you wear Shu Yun brocade? This should be worn by sister Lian'er." Bai Zirui and Bai Zixiang said in unison.
Seeing Bai Yunlian's aggrieved look, they really wanted to take off Bai Lingyue's clothes and put them on sister Lian'er directly.
"My mother is my biological mother, and the cloth is my mother's dowry. Why should I give it to a concubine? Am I not good at wearing it or is there something wrong with my brain? I really can't use my hot face to stick to someone else's cold butt. It's still done by my brothers with ease.
Say no more, go back and drink my snow mountain silver cents, I'm so thirsty. "
After saying that, Bai Lingyue left without looking back.
It is said that murder kills the heart, and every word she just said was like daggers stabbing into the hearts of everyone present.
The tea they drank was also good. In order to compensate for Zhou Luoyi's dowry, they had to settle for the second best. Who doesn't like to drink good tea?
"I'm tired, please leave! By the way, Aunt Mei, Yunzhu, you stay." Mrs. Bai lost all face today and had no interest in talking anymore, but she kept Aunt Mei and her daughter.
Coming out of the front hall, Bai Zirui and Bai Zixiang surrounded Bai Yunlian.
"Sister Lian'er, don't be sad. There should be Shu Yun brocade at my mother's place. Since my mother used it to make clothes for Bai Lingyue, let's go and beg her and we should be able to make a set for you too."
"Yes, sister Lian'er is the face of our Bai family. Unlike that idiot, my mother should know the general situation."
The words of the two brothers made Bai Yunlian feel elated. If she could wear Shu brocade to attend the lotus banquet held by Princess Taiping next week, she would definitely be the most beautiful existence.
Those young men will definitely be crazy about her by then. Without the prince, she can prove to everyone that as long as she, Bai Yunlian, wants to marry, then she can choose the man?
"Thank you, brother. I know that brother is the best to me." Bai Yunlian kept pouring the ecstasy soup into the two of them, making Bai Zirui and Bai Zixiang dizzy. They wanted to go to their mother for cloth immediately.
In Aunt Yun's yard, she pulled Mr. Bai to sit down, and then said very worriedly: "Master, you see, now Lingyue has built a wall between us and the backyard. This means that he will fall out with us after taking the money. ah!
She doesn't care about family ties at all. Master, listen to her. The tea we drink here is terrible. Then she has snow-capped mountains and silver cents, why not give it to you to drink? You are his biological father! "
Aunt Yun said something arrogant, which made Mr. Bai feel very irritable.
If it were before, he would have gone to trouble Bai Lingyue long ago after hearing these words, but now that he has repeatedly failed in front of Bai Lingyue, he has to look at this daughter differently.
"Maybe she is angry, but after a while she will take the initiative to reconcile with us."
But in Mr. Bai's heart, he still harbors illusions.
"Sir, Princess Taiping is holding a lotus banquet next week and sent an invitation to Lian'er, but Lian'er doesn't even have a decent dress. If she can wear Shu brocade to attend the banquet, she will definitely attract the attention of those young masters.
At that time, we can also find someone to bring honor to our Bai family. "
Aunt Yun's purpose was also the same. The Yun Brocade of Shu was really beautiful, and she wanted it too, but she couldn't say it, so she could only use her daughter as an excuse.
"Well, I'll go talk to Madam tomorrow." Mr. Bai is still very optimistic about his second daughter. In the past, she was raised according to the standards of a princess. Now that something like this has happened, although it is a pity, but with Bai Yunlian With her upbringing, marrying the prince's son is not out of the question.
"Master, you are so kind." Aunt Yun came up and kissed Mr. Bai on the cheek.
Bai Lingyue returned to the backyard, and Xiao Taohong had prepared tea and fresh fruits for her.
"If you eat these at night, you will gain weight." Although she said this, Bai Lingyue was still hungry. While eating, she told Xiao Taohong, Yuan Bao and others what had just happened.
"Hahaha, Miss Mighty, you are so powerful." The carefree Yuan Bao laughed first and gave a thumbs up to Bai Lingyue.
The others were more reserved, but they all felt very happy.
"Have a good sleep tonight. Someone will come to cause trouble tomorrow. You must cheer up." Bai Lingyue yawned.
"Okay, we will definitely entertain the troublemaker well." Yuan Bao said mysteriously.
Bai Lingyue didn't take her words seriously. Among her girls, Yuanbao had the most active mind and read the most. Just go ahead and do whatever you want. She can protect her anyway.
After Bai Lingyue fell asleep, Xiao Fei and Young Master Buran on the roof spoke softly.
"Sir, is the eldest lady of the Bai family too showy? Aren't you afraid of making too many enemies?" Xiao Fei even felt that Bai Lingyue was showing off too much.
"What are you afraid of? Behind her is Duke Zhen! Even if Duke Zhen can't protect him, isn't there still a prince?" Young Master Buran rolled his eyes at Xiao Fei, a guy who doesn't understand the world.
Xiao Fei's eyes lit up, does this mean that he will try to please the eldest lady of the Bai family even more in the future?
