Early the next morning, Qin got up and dressed carefully, and by the way, got her daughter up and dressed carefully.

You can't lose your aura if you lose anything! She will go to Jingmingtang to meet Mu Qing's mother and daughter soon, so she has to be the first to win.

After more than half an hour, the mother and daughter finally got dressed.

The Qin family is dressed in bright satin with a bright red grape pattern, a stand-up collar and wide sleeves. The skirt, neckline, and cuffs are all inlaid with gold and silver threads, and embroidered with complicated and delicate bright patterns; There are sixteen pieces of Hunan skirts in gold satin, which look extremely graceful and gorgeous.

The hair bun is peonies piled on the temples, which are complicated and knotted on the top of the head, forming a beautiful cloud pattern. The emerald gemstones and pearl hairpins between the temples are full of brilliance and radiate bright light.

In addition, drop-shaped emerald pendants inlaid with beads, ruby-encrusted red gold necklaces, beaded knots tied on buttons, bracelets, rings, jade pendants, luan belts, purses, and sachets are full of amazing decorations. Dare to stare closely, it can burn people's eyes!

This is almost a more showy decoration than going back to her natal family to visit relatives during the Spring Festival. She wears almost all the best jewelry she owns.

Facing the polished bronze mirror, Qin looked at the person in the mirror, feeling very satisfied, and asked Granny Feng with a smile, "Look at my outfit!"

Mrs. Feng was naturally envious, and she praised with a smile: "Second Madam is really graceful and luxurious, the richness and demeanor of this body must blind the mother and daughter! Tsk tsk, the ring on Madam's hand is probably enough for a family of slaves It will be a year..."

Mrs. Feng's words pleased Mrs. Qin very much. Mrs. Qin raised her well-maintained white and delicate hands, and smiled quite complacently: "It's hard to get such a big, clear and pure ruby. It can be worth six or seven hundred taels, which is still the betrothal gift given by the second master back then! If it is made into a ring, it should be worth at least one thousand taels!"

"Tsk tsk, I have never seen so much silver in my life!" Mrs. Feng opened her eyes wide in surprise, tsk tsk, and praised.

Qin laughed more and more, then lowered her head and flicked her clothes, and said with a smile: "Look at my clothes and these jewelry and accessories. This outfit is enough for ordinary people to live affluently for two lifetimes." !"

After hearing this, Mrs. Feng couldn't help but sigh and click her tongue in admiration and flattery.

Qin's eyes darkened slightly, and she sighed silently. These are all her treasures at the bottom of the box, most of them were done more than ten years ago, and she hasn't bought expensive jewelry for many years! Even the material for cutting this dress was obtained with great difficulty five years ago...

After a while, Lu Yiqing also came from her own yard, smiled and called "Mother" and walked into the house. Seeing her mother's body full of jewels and jewels like a shelf of clothes and jewelry, she was stunned, her mouth was slightly opened, and her eyes were straight. I looked over.

Qin made her look a little embarrassed, so she smiled and said to her: "What's wrong? I don't know your mother?"

"No," Lu Yiqing forced a few smiles, and said, "Mother, your outfit, uh, isn't it too - gorgeous! It's not a guest to see my aunt, it seems, it seems that there is no need to - Be solemn!"

"What do you children know!" Qin didn't understand her daughter's implication at all, and she was even more joyful when she heard her say "rich" and "grand", and it was just a compliment!

Then he smiled and said: "That's exactly what it is! Give them a blow! Let them know that our family is not an ordinary family!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help raising her eyes to look carefully at Lu Yiqing's attire: the ginger-yellow bamboo-leaf-pattern cross-collared beige, trimmed with a half-inch-wide plain garnet-red border, and the beige watery long skirt with a circle of embroidery on the hem. Thumb-sized finely twisted florets. The bun is also an ordinary boudoir girl's bun, only a bead-embedded waffle in the hair adds a bit of brilliance.

Qin frowned immediately, and said: "You can't do this, it's too plain, Xiurong, Xiuhe, hurry up and help Miss go back and change again, make it brighter!"

"Mom!" Seeing that there was no way to convince her mother, Lu Yiqing had no choice but to let her dress up in such a gorgeous and golden way, she would definitely refuse, so she hurriedly laughed and said, "It's good for me like this. The clothes are new and only worn once! Let’s hurry over, it’s getting late! We’ve made appointments with our eldest aunt, second sister, and third brother, and we have to go to grandma’s place to say hello!”

"No hurry, let's get up early today!" How could Mrs. Qin agree? It was still necessary for Lu Yiqing to change clothes.

Lu Yiqing pushed left and right to resist death, but Qin had no other choice, so he forced a pair of golden silk beaded double butterfly play flower hairpins on Lu Yiqing's hair bun. The colorful butterfly is made of gold silk, and its wings are decorated with fine red sapphires and broken jade. The hibiscus flower in play is also made of ruby. , exuding a faint brilliance in the sun.

Qin looked at it carefully, nodded with a satisfied smile and said yes!

Although the hairpin was exquisite and beautiful, it really didn't match Lu Yiqing's elegant dress.

Lu Yiqing sighed inwardly, and then said with a smile: "I think I'd better change into another outfit, mother, wait for me!"

"That's right! Change into something brighter!" Qin laughed behind her.

"Understood, mother!" Lu Yiqing smiled wryly, could she still say no

After all, I went back and changed into a long dress with pomegranate red rhombic gauze embroidered with peony flowers, so I gave up.

When the mother and daughter came to Jingmingtang, Mu Qing was already fully dressed and was sending someone to call for her son and daughter.

Grandma Liu rushed in and said, "Madam! Madam! The Second Madam and the Third Miss are here!" Mu Qing just gave an elegant and gentle "Yes" to show that she understood, and did not take any other actions.

Grandma Liu was stunned, then she smiled and said, "Don't you go out to greet Mrs. Second and Third Misses will be here soon!"

Without waiting for Mu Qing to speak, she heard Nanny Hua lightly scolding: "I think sister-in-law, you are confused! The eldest lady is Mrs. Hou, and sister-in-law. If you haven't heard of it, you have to go out to meet your younger siblings!"

Grandma Liu opened her mouth and was speechless immediately, she smiled coyly and said, "Forgive me, Da Furen, this old servant is confused!" She hurriedly stepped aside in a polite manner.

Instead, Mu Qing smiled and said: "It's no wonder you, when we never went back to the mansion, the back house of this mansion has always been headed by the second sibling, it's only natural for you to react like this!"

"Ma'am is wise!" Grandma Liu immediately thanked Dade for his flattery, intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Grandma Hua, and said with a smile, "Otherwise, this old slave has nowhere to avenge if someone dies unjustly!"

Mu Qing smiled, but did not answer her words. Madam Hua stood by Mu Qing's side, without even raising her eyelids, she just ignored her words.

Grandma Liu couldn't help being secretly depressed.

"Sister-in-law!" With a crisp call and a burst of bright and friendly laughter, Qin Shi and Lu Yiqing had already walked in.

Qin's dismounting power was indeed very powerful. When she stepped in, the sun just shone in from behind her. Against the light, everyone couldn't see her face clearly, but the sun shone on her body, reflecting the whole body. of bling. Everyone couldn't help blinking their eyes stung by the light, and looked away.

Mu Qing was also stunned for a moment, and managed to hold back the smile that reached her lips.

"Second brother and sister are here! Please sit down!" Mu Qing stood up and nodded with a slight smile.

Qin shi sat down politely with a smile, and Lu Yiqing stepped forward to meet Mu Qing, saluted gracefully, and called "Auntie!" with a smile.

"Is this the third niece? She is indeed a beautiful woman! Get up quickly!" Mu Qing looked at her and said with a smile.

Lu Yiqing stood up with a smile, and stood behind Qin Shi with her hands folded.

Lu Yiqing couldn't help but quietly looked at Mu Qing's clothes. The half-new hazy color engraved Ruyi head pattern double-breasted jacket, the light pink jacket with a stand-up collar, and the neckline was tied with a white jade buckle the size of a pigeon egg. Warm and moist, white and greasy like frost and snow, upon closer inspection it turned out to be the finest suet white jade. Wearing a moon skirt with moon white cloud patterns.

At first glance, the skirt is very plain, but as it swayed slightly, it reflected light and dark silver brilliance patterns, which are patterns worn by butterflies. Lu Yiqing was startled, and suddenly realized: Could it be that this is the finest brocade used in the palace according to legend! Looking at the material of the top, the flowing light and rosy rhyme, the texture is indescribably delicate and soft, it is actually brocade.

Looking at the red gold jadeite hairpin and the hibiscus warm jade bud on her bun, one can tell how much it is worth just by looking at the quality of the material.

The Qin family was also secretly looking at Mu Qing, her eyes couldn't help revealing a greedy light.

"Sister-in-law is still used to living here!" Qin said with a smile: "I should have come to see sister-in-law yesterday, but there are too many trivial things at hand to keep busy, and I heard that sister-in-law is busy tidying up the house here, so I don't know what to do." I don’t have the nerve to come here to cause trouble! I called two or three servants here, originally to help, but who knows that they caused trouble to my sister-in-law, won’t my sister-in-law be angry and blame her?”

"I'm not used to it at home!" Mu Qing smiled and said, "My sister-in-law Xiaoshu and An'er really liked them, and played with them for a long time! Thank you, the second sibling! There will be plenty of opportunities for sisters-in-law and sisters to meet each other in the future, and it wasn’t at that hour and a half yesterday, the second sibling is overwhelmed!”

"I knew my sister-in-law was always the most reasonable and magnanimous person, but I really was overthinking!" Qin raised her handkerchief to cover her mouth and giggled, and then said with a casual smile: "I heard that sister-in-law Did you ask someone to change all the furniture in the bedroom yesterday? Are you dissatisfied with the previous arrangement in the mansion? This is really my fault!"

These words are not only expressing to Mu Qing that Zhongfu in the Fuzhong is in charge of his own affairs, but also imply exploration.

"Nothing," Mu Qing said with a smile, "I didn't expect everything in the mansion to be fully prepared, so I ordered it in the woodware shop, so I moved back yesterday! The original arrangement in the mansion is also pretty good." OK, I love it!"

"That's good!" Qin smiled, feeling a little unhappy in her heart.
