"I customized the clothes for Jin'er. Naturally, they are only suitable for Jin'er. There is nothing wrong with the clothes and the sewing." Mrs. Kong said solemnly.
She had to say this, but she was still riding a tiger.
After Mrs. Kong finished speaking, Jiang Linglong was on the verge of fainting.
"Sister, Cuju's clothes were custom-made for me by my grandmother. When you borrowed them, I told you so. You said it's okay."
Jiang Jinxin looked at Jiang Linglong with an innocent face: "The clothes and jewelry that my grandmother customized for me are all excellent, and she chose the best things."
To prove this, Jiang Jinxin also pulled out a hairpin from her head and pointed to the earrings on her ears: "These were all sent by my grandmother, and they are all custom-made for me."
The young girl, perhaps to prove that what she said was true, even handed the hairpin to the nearby guests.
Someone subconsciously reached out and took it and looked at it.
As soon as I took it, I felt something was wrong, so I passed it to others. Some were really curious, while others took it casually. The hairpin passed through the hands of several people.
"This... doesn't seem right!"
There is humanity.
"It seems wrong, the weight is wrong." The other person who took over said casually.
"Does this seem fake?" You said bluntly.
"This...can't be possible!"
Hearing what they said, more people stretched out their hands, some took it and shook it, and fell silent. Others looked at Mrs. Kong in astonishment. Many people already understood in their hearts that this hairpin was not made of real gold.
Mrs. Kong was on pins and needles. When Jiang Jinxin took off the hairpin and passed it out, she knew it was not good. Before she could stop her, the hairpin had already been passed out.
"Jin Xin, take off your hairpin and let me take a look." The old lady turned her eyes gloomily and said suddenly.
Jiang Jinxin nodded, reached out and pulled out another hairpin, and brought it to the old lady.
The old lady took it, bumped it in the palm of her hand, and asked Jiang Jinxin to take out the earring. After trying it out too, she looked at Mrs. Kong: "Mrs. Kong, what do you mean?"
Things turned out like this, and the Jiang family lost so much face. After calming down, Mrs. Jiang frantically wanted to pull a top cylinder.
"Old madam, I don't understand what you mean! I gave the clothes to Jin'er specially. How can I borrow custom-made clothes from others? I can't force myself to put them on and stretch my clothes just because the eldest daughter in the house can't fit them. Did I give you the wrong clothes?" Mrs. Kong Tai was not someone to be trifled with, her face darkened and she said coldly.
"What does this jewelry mean?" the old lady said coldly.
"I gave the jewelry to my granddaughter. I just think it's pretty and more suitable for girls, so I let her wear it and play with it. What do you think is wrong, Madam?"
Mrs. Kongtai asked back.
I didn’t say it was real gold jewelry, just for fun.
There are indeed some pieces of jewelry that just look beautiful but may not be valuable.
It's just that the hairpin and earrings in front of them are not outstanding at all. At first glance, everyone thinks they are real gold.
"The old lady is asking me this now. Do you think I gave it to the wrong person? I gave it to my granddaughter, and I gave it to Jin'er. As for the others..." Mrs. Kong glanced at Jiang Linglong contemptuously, "I really don't know. What are you talking about! Madam, since there is a banquet in the house, you should prepare a few more sets of clothes! Even a concubine is decent. "
After Mrs. Kong Tai finished speaking, she walked away directly.
The old lady was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She looked at Jiang Linglong and scolded fiercely: "Come here, take the eldest girl down."
This time, two women passed by, one on each side. They didn't allow Jiang Linglong to say anything at all. They took Jiang Linglong and went down. The female relatives present looked at me and I looked at you. They were speechless for a moment.
What the hell is this!
They just happily came to a banquet and built a relationship with Zuo Xiangfu. They never expected to encounter such a thing. It was very embarrassing.
"Mother, do you want to take a rest?" Kong stood up, supported the old lady, and whispered.
The old lady glared at Mr. Kong fiercely, which meant that even Mr. Kong was resentful.
"Grandma, there's still a banquet." Jiang Jinxin came over and held the old lady's other side, whispering.
The old lady calmed down, tried to calm down the anger in her heart, and gritted her teeth hard.
"Grandma, would you like to go back and rest for a while?" Jiang Jinxin suggested.
The old lady nodded. She actually had no intention of sitting down and being polite to others. She was burning with anger, feeling that everyone was secretly laughing at her.
Suppressing her anger, she spoke to several old ladies with unusual identities, and then told Kong to continue to entertain guests. She held Jiang Jinxin's hand and left first.
If she stayed any longer, the old lady was afraid that she would vomit blood.
After returning to the inner courtyard, she sat down in the main room. After drinking a glass of hot water, the old lady recovered and looked up at Jiang Jinxin: "Jinxin, what on earth is going on?"
Knowing that the old lady was still doubting herself, Jiang Jinxin was well prepared and calmly told the story in detail. Compared with the previous one, this time even the dialogue was added.
"I borrowed it from you three times?" the old lady said solemnly.
"Yes, I refused the first two times. The eldest sister came here by herself the last time, and said that she was just casually accompanying a few girls with whom I had a good relationship. She walked around a few times and it wouldn't get dirty. I could wear it again later. ." Jiang Jinxin said.
Jiang Jinxin said it seriously.
"You two don't have the right body shape, why would she do this?" the old lady asked.
Jiang Jinxin shook her head: "I don't know either! Grandma, does the eldest sister only have one set of Cuju clothes? Why do you have to borrow mine? And this set was given to me by my grandmother."
Mentioning the gift from Mrs. Kong, the old lady felt depressed again and sneered again and again: "What good gift can she give? You mother and daughter are determined to treat her as an elder and be filial to her, but she doesn't take it to your heart at all. It's a gift from her." They are all stuff, torn clothes, fake jewelry, An Xinhou Mansion will be completely embarrassed."
Thinking of Mrs. Kong's strong words just now, the old lady was extremely angry, and she sprayed all her resentment on Mrs. Kong's body without any ambiguity.
I lost so much face today, all because of Mrs. Kong.
"Old lady, the clothes are here." A woman reported outside the door.
"Come in!"
A woman came in holding a piece of clothing and respectfully presented it to the old lady. It was the same set of Cuju clothes that Jiang Linglong was wearing just now. The top was obviously turned up.
The old lady stood up with a gloomy face, walked to her mother-in-law, picked up the clothes and looked at them. It was indeed stretched, and the broken place of the thread was clearly visible. It was not the kind of cut, with a smooth cut.
Was it really just an accident?
The old lady didn't believe it and looked at Jiang Jinxin again suspiciously. Jiang Jinxin blinked her eyelashes and focused on her clothes, not noticing the old lady's inspection.
The clothes were cut by her and sewn by her. The lines were not cut, but some were broken with a needle, and then they were really stretched by Jiang Linglong.
There is nothing unusual about the appearance, so don’t be afraid to check!
In order to make this set of clothes look the same as the original, Jiang Jinxin cut the lines on the material carefully and carefully picked them out one by one, and then sewed them together, using the original threads without any difference.
All day yesterday, she took two Yangliu and worked meticulously for a day, just to make this dress look exactly the same as when it was originally delivered from Anxinhou Mansion.
Even Mrs. Kongtai couldn't recognize that someone had tampered with her.
"Old madam, these clothes... don't fit the figure of the two girls." A woman suddenly said.
The old lady paused, then put the clothes she was carrying in front of Jiang Jinxin, and made a sign that the clothes were longer.
"Measure it!" The old lady handed the clothes to the person next to her and sat down again.
A woman took a ruler and measured it carefully.
"The clothes are long, but the sleeves are about the same. The body shape is similar to that of the second girl, but a little too long. If the second girl wears this set of clothes to perform Cuju, she may step on the skirt and fall." The woman who measured the clothes quickly He came to a conclusion and reported it to the old lady.
If it is other clothes, it will not fit and lose dignity if it is too long, but it will not cause any accident. But this Cuju clothes cannot be too long. If you run and step on the skirt that is too long, then He would have to fall down, and it would be Jiang Jinxin who would make a fool of himself.
In other words, no matter who wears this piece of clothing, something will happen.
"Anxinhou's Mansion, what an Anxinhou's Mansion." The old lady's face turned green with anger, and she slammed the table hard, furious.
Jiang Jinxin lowered her head, with deep eyes under her long eyelashes. Aunt Gu wanted to promote her status, and wanted to succeed in the position of the main wife after killing her mother.
Mrs. Kong Tai fawned over Jiang Xuncheng, and even at the expense of her own worth, she found a reason to recognize Aunt Gu as her adopted daughter and promote Aunt Gu's status.
But now the two collusions are over this time!
After something like this happened, let's see if they can still make some plans in the future?
Aunt Gu and Anxin Houfu are destined to stand on opposite sides...
Suddenly there was a cry outside, and a woman came in to report: "Old madam, Aunt Gu and the eldest lady are here!"
Aunt Gu is very busy today, really busy.
From getting up in the early morning to now, we were busy together in the big kitchen. Either there was something missing here, or there was something missing there. She couldn't leave even if she wanted to.
This was different from what she had imagined.
At this time, even if the banquet was not hosted by her, she still had to entertain the guests in front, letting the guests know that she was the woman in charge of the middle minister of the prime minister's palace, and she was not a useless Kong family at all.
Kong is just taking on the name. The only one who can really make the decision and help these ladies is herself. Kong is nothing, she is just taking on the name of the wife of the main wife. The prime minister promised himself , the position of the main room will be yours soon.
Aunt Gu wanted to go out to receive guests, wanted to show her face in front of others, and wanted to be affectionate and affectionate with Mrs. Kong. As soon as she hit it off, it was natural for her to finally recognize her.
But now, she has none of this dignity and is still busy. This is the old lady's intention. Even if Aunt Gu is unwilling, she can only wait.
Fortunately, she also asked Mrs. Yiyang Bo for help. As long as the atmosphere is set in place, the rest will happen naturally. She only needs to go out once at the right opportunity.
Calculating the time, Aunt Gu put aside the affairs in the big kitchen and no longer cared about the old lady's wishes. After sorting it out, she led people to the guest room. The meeting should be almost over, and it was appropriate for her to go there now.
Aunt Gu should have been there when the accident happened. With Aunt Gu around, Jiang Jinxin's plan might not go so smoothly, but something happened on Aunt Gu's side too, and she was late...
