From her mother's words, she also heard the meaning of wanting to betroth her to Cousin Yang. Jiang Zixian, who had a secret heart, entangled Zhu Junyang. It has to be said that this girl has a strong heart, and she was not scared off by Zhu Junyang's big ice cube, but became more frustrated and courageous.
"Let go!!" Zhu Junyang didn't even look at her, the corners of his phoenix eyes lightly glanced at Jiang Zixian's hand holding his rein, the threat in his tone was obvious.
"Don't let go!" Jiang Zixian was not frightened by his indifference, her face was puffed up, and her round eyes were shining with pitiful light. Yu Xiaocao beside her felt pity in her heart. Xiaojun Wang is too boring, how can such a beautiful girl be treated so rudely
Zhu Junyang didn't talk nonsense with her, he had seen many women like this who thought that she could get the life she wanted by climbing a high branch. What about my cousin? The envy of the low-key and luxurious decorations in Prince Jing's mansion, the longing for the life of the mother and concubine who dotes on the mansion alone, the covetousness for the exotic flowers and plants in the garden... For a woman like this who stalks her to achieve her goal without regard to shame, he has never done anything to her. It's for the sake of relatives. On the surface, he pretends to be innocent, but inside he is a big wild wolf. This is Zhu Junyang's evaluation of the famous ladies in the capital.
Zhu Junyang's patience was exhausted, he poured his inner energy into the reins, and shook it slightly. Jiang Zixian felt a numbness in her hands, and a force came, pushing her backwards. When she staggered and stood still, King Yang had already shaken the reins and galloped away.
Jiang Zixian pursed her lips, and her eyes shone with an unyielding light. Didn't my aunt say that Cousin Yang likes simple, beautiful and cute types? Isn't she cute enough
His eyes turned to Mrs. Fang and Yu Xiaocao, and he glanced at the plaque of "General Zhaoyong's Mansion" behind Mrs. Fang. A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes: It's just a third-rank idle job. How could Cousin Yang make friends like this? family
When she saw Xiaocao's big eyes that were as clear as a clear spring and full of spirituality, she felt jealous. If she had such big talking eyes, my cousin wouldn't treat her like this, right
Looking at Xiaocao's clothes again, Jiang Zixian turned her almond eyes, and a smile spread on her face: "Mrs. Fang, your girl looks really fresh, I just need such a beautiful maid. Can you Sell her to me?"
Jiang Zixian's father did not have a high position, he was a fourth-rank minister of Honglu Temple. But her grandfather, that is, the father of Princess Jing, is the Taifu, one of the teachers respected by the current Emperor.
Although my husband is a military officer, there is no need to curry favor with any grand master, but one more thing is worse than one less thing, Mrs. Fang's tone of voice to Jiang Zixian is quite polite: "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang. The little girl you said Girl, she is my husband's adopted daughter..."
The disdain in Jiang Zixian's eyes was even worse. The fact that General Fang recognized a small peasant girl as a foster daughter has already spread in the capital. Being able to appeal to General Zhaoyong and let him take the initiative to recognize her as a righteous daughter, this little girl is young and has a deep scheming mind. Jiang Zixian stopped buying her to cater to Prince Yang's wishes.
Seeing Jiang Zixian leaving like a proud peacock, Yu Xiaocao raised her eyebrows, no wonder the Xiaojun Wang looked down on her, she was the same in front of her, but another behind her back. Do all the ladies in the capital have so many faces
"Cao'er, don't be angry! Some people always like to rely on the power of their ancestors, their eyes grow on the top of their heads, and they get used to it after seeing them too much. However, you don't have to give in blindly when facing such people. After all, you are The daughter of our general's mansion!" Mrs. Fang didn't like Jiang Zixian's behavior, a daughter of a fourth-rank official, but she still regarded herself as a princess, and everyone else had to support her
Instruct the chief steward of the general's mansion to settle down Yu Hai. Mrs. Fang then led Yu Xiaocao into the Hanging Flower Gate and came to the inner courtyard. The entrance is a zigzag veranda, the steps are paved with stones, and the peaches and plums are in full bloom on both sides. The garden is full of colorful flowers and clusters of flowers. There are rockeries and small pavilions dotted among them. The courtyard is small but very unique.
After walking through the second courtyard, you will come to three halls, in which there is a large rosewood screen. Turn around the screen, and behind the hall is the main courtyard behind. There are five upper rooms on the front, all carved beams and painted buildings, with corridors and wing rooms on both sides. Seeing his wife leading a girl in, a few girls in red and green from the corridor greeted her early.
"This is Miss, I'm looking forward to you. No wonder our wife is always thinking about it. Standing together is really like a mother and daughter." The person who spoke was a girl in pink, eighteen or nineteen years old. Age, should be one of the other two big girls of the godmother.
Sure enough, Mrs. Fang pointed at her and scolded with a smile: "You girl, you are eloquent, and every word you say enters people's hearts. Isn't that right! Your wife and I are closer to Cao'er than mother and daughter! Cao'er , This is my big girl, named Lin Lang. There is also a green dress named Hu Po, who is quieter. You can recognize all four big girls, pick two who will vote for your temper, and run for you. "
Yu Xiaocao hurriedly shook her hand and said: "No need, godmother, you are used to these sisters, I'm going to pick them out, isn't there no one in front of you? Godmother, listen to me. If the godmother is only you, it’s okay to lose one or two maids, but you still have little Linlin, and the two maids have to serve you and help take care of my little brother, how can you be busy? You You also know my temperament, just pick two little girls for me!"
Mrs. Fang was a little worried: "Little girl, how can they use Pearl Linglang so easily?"
Linglong really has an exquisite heart, she said with a smile: "Madam, I will go to Miss's place to take care of her for a few days, and take the little girls with me, so as not to treat Miss poorly."
Mrs. Fang knew that Linglong was a decent person, so after thinking about it, she nodded and said: "Okay! You go and help out with some girls who need to be trained. From now on, Cao'er will have more time to live in the mansion! You can't miss it People serve."
Seeing Linglong volunteering to serve the young lady, Linlang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, "Linglong is indeed the roundworm in Madam's belly. You know what Madam thinks!"
To be honest, Lin Lang didn't think of being a girl as a big deal in her heart. In her opinion, Yu Xiaocao is not as good as the old cousin, at least she is related to his wife. The goddamn girl the general recognized looked petty and rustic, and she really couldn't do it. What can be achieved by following such a master
She thought so, and so did many little girls in the house. Apart from Linglong, the older girls beside the madam are not too young, and they might be released after twenty. In front of Madam, if she behaved better, it might not be impossible to be promoted as a big girl in Madam's eyes.
However, some little girls don't think so. On weekdays, Madam attaches great importance to this daughter-in-law, and not only often sends some delicious and interesting clothes and jewelry, but also often talks about it. If she is chosen by the young lady, she will be a big girl directly, and she will have to struggle for many years!
No matter what these little girls think in their hearts, they don't have the autonomy to make decisions. When Yu Xiaocao was choosing, she paid special attention to the eyes of the little girls, and didn't pick those that flickered, wandered, or avoided her eyes. I picked a few with upright and clean eyes, but didn't pay much attention to their appearance. However, when you pick them out, the four little girls are all juicy and pretty!
Mrs. Fang was a little worried, afraid that the daughter-in-law would simply judge people by their appearance, and that she would pick someone with ulterior motives. She could see that King Yang treated her daughter very differently, and her own daughter was a bit out of touch. If these beautiful girls have other thoughts, I'm afraid...
Yu Xiaocao didn't think so far, she looked at her four newly appointed girls and expressed that she was very pleased. Who doesn't like pretty things
At this time, the nanny walked out of the ear room with her brother in her arms, came to the lady's side, and said with a smile: "Young master kissed the lady after all, and I will look for you as soon as I wake up. I'm not happy if I don't see you." As soon as Xiao Linlin saw his mother, he stretched out his chubby hands, begging for a hug.
Yu Xiaocao hadn't seen little Linlin for more than half a year. When she saw the fat, beautiful and cute little brother, she couldn't help stretching out her hand, cut off the beard from the middle, and took the little guy over. The nanny was a little worried, she opened her hands to protect her, and said in her mouth: "Miss, don't look at the young man's age, take it seriously, let's be a servant!"
Unable to fall into the warm embrace of his mother as he wished, Xiao Linlin squinted his mouth and just wanted to cry out for you to see, but he smelled the good smell on Miss Sister, so he hugged Xiaocao's neck with his arms like lotus root joints , buried his face on her neck, sniffed lightly, then raised his head, pouted and kissed her face a few times, smearing Xiaocao's saliva all over his face.
Mrs. Fang was very happy when she saw it, and said with a smile: "Oh, our Linlin still remembers his sister, and knows that her sister is the closest person to him besides his parents!"
The nanny also nodded frequently, and said in surprise: "Yes! The young master is not close to anyone except his wife. Even the master, the young master has never kissed him!"
Mrs. Fang put Xiaocao and her son in her arms, kissed her precious son, and said: "Lin'er and Cao'er are destined. If I didn't know Cao'er, I would not be able to conceive Lin'er. Lin'er and Cao'er My sister is close, isn't this some kind of fate?"
When Lin Lang heard this, what else is there? It seems that Miss's position in Madam's heart is not what she expected. Be careful in the future, you can't wait for this lady who came halfway. Thinking of this, the smile on Lin Lang's face was a little sincere: "Yes, yes! Our young master still remembers Miss, is this the so-called fate of siblings?"
In the midst of everyone's laughter, Xiao Linlin washed her sister's face with saliva, and then hugged her neck tightly, no matter how many good things anyone said, she just wouldn't let go. Mrs. Fang felt a little sour in her heart, and slapped her son's fat butt a few times.
