Yuxi originally thought that all the girls in the Zhou family's boudoir would come, but he didn't expect that only Zhou Shiya would come. As soon as Zhou Shiya saw Yuxi, she pulled her into a bit of thought: "Why are you growing taller? What do you eat every day?" It was clear that the two were about the same height back then, and they were about the same body, but now Yuxi is better than her. Half a head tall and slimmer than her.
Yuxi said, "I'm no better than you, I can eat everything." Zhou Shiya is very picky and doesn't eat a lot of things.
Zhou Shiya said with a bitter face, "You don't know that I will grow meat when I eat." She has a physique that is prone to fat, and belongs to the kind of person who can get fat by drinking water. Not to mention it's okay, it's a bitter tear when you say it!
Yuxi smiled and said, "Then you just pay attention to it."
Zhou Shiya pinched Yuxi's face and said, "And this skin is really tender!" This skin, tender and tender like white tofu, makes people want to pinch two, and see if it can pinch water. Come. It turns out that it feels very good, and I want to pinch it twice.
Yuxi pushed away Zhou Shiya's hand and laughed: "I am far behind the third sister."
Yuchen, who was standing on the side, was a little helpless, no matter when, Yuxi always liked to say that she was inferior to her. This is almost becoming Yuxi's mantra.
Zhou Shiya turned to look at Yuchen, her mouth twitching, Yuchen's skin was white and red, and her skin was smooth and tender, and her whole body also showed a luster like suet jade. Zhou Shiya is really envious, jealous, and hate, so she quickly asked: "Tell me, how did you raise it. I want to have such a good skin too!"
Yuxi and Yuchen have a good relationship, so they know more than others. As long as Yuchen's skin is touched by someone, it will leave a red mark even if it is not exerted. This shows how good the skin is, and the rumored ice skin jade skin is nothing more than that, but she can't say these things. Because Yuchen's skin is not born with such good skin, but from a medicated bath.
Yuchen talked about everything he ate on weekdays, and then concealed the period of taking medicated food and soaking in medicinal bath. But this is the case, Zhou Shishan and Duan Xinrong also listened very carefully. Beauty is a woman's nature.
The maid came over and said, "Girl, the girl from the Duan family is here."
When Zhou Shiya saw Duan Xinrong, she smiled and said, "You are finally here, let us wait for a while!"
Yuchen knew that the three of them had a good relationship. He probably had a lot of whispers to say, and found an excuse to return to Tingyun Pavilion. When he walked to the door, Yuchen heard a burst of cheerful laughter in the room, and a faint disappointment rose in his heart. She also wanted to make a few close friends like Yuxi, but unfortunately she couldn't make them. As for the reason, Yuchen actually knew it too. Sometimes being too good is also a burden. Zhou Shiya whispered: "Yuxi, don't be angry, I deliberately prevented my two concubines from coming."
Yuxi smiled and asked, "How about cousin Shishan and others? Why didn't they come?"
Zhou Shiya smiled and said, "I said that I was not feeling well, but I guess I knew that you didn't invite anyone on your birthday, so I found an excuse not to come. It would be better if you didn't come, and if they were there, we said it would be impossible. "
Yuxi didn't care either, it would be better if she didn't come, she didn't want to entertain him yet!
Duan Xinrong said: "Yuxi, you were very popular in the first two banquets. Even my mother asked me if your chess skills are really good?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's not that way, it's all blown out."
Zhou Shiya urged: "Why don't you play the next game, I will also see how good Yuxi's chess skills are."
Duan Xinrong hurriedly asked Yuxi to take out the chessboard and said, "Don't leave room for you to show your true level. I have to see how far I am from you?" She used to play chess with Yuxi, but it was all jokes. interest.
Yuxi really didn't have any room, but he lost within a quarter of an hour before Duan Xinrong. Duan Xinrong picked up the remaining chess pieces on the chessboard and played them back into the chess box, and said with a smile: "You girl, the chess skill is so good, you hide it deep enough."
Zhou Shiya reminded: "Yuxi, November is the 60th birthday of the old lady of the Pingqing Marquis Mansion. At that time, you should not steal the limelight from the main house like you did in Taining Marquis Mansion and Princess Mansion." But it offends a large group of people.
Yuxi reluctantly said: "What kind of showy, how can it be as exaggerated as you said. Besides, you don't know how my painting skills are. Those who deliberately exaggerate outside are uneasy." She won't be complimented by others. Just floated up.
Zhou Shiya also knew that Yuxi was not a pushy person, and said: "You can be low-key when you go to Pingqing Hou Mansion. Some of the Jiang's girls are not vegetarian." The prostitutes and concubines all have their own characteristics. It can only be said that Mrs. Jiang will train her own girl.
Yuxi laughed and said: "On such occasions, they won't try to play chess with me." There are also four girls in the Pingqing Hou Mansion. The eldest daughter Jiang Yi is good at piano art and painting. Come out, but the two twins Jiang Zhen and Jiang Ping are less talented but outstanding in appearance, plus they look exactly the same, they attract everyone's attention as soon as they come out. Of course, it's not that Jiang Yi and Jiang Xin look bad, but they are inferior to the twins.
Zhou Shiya said amused: "Look, you didn't care about it at all, so I was worried."
Yuxi smiled and said: "I have something to worry about, and I can't worry about many things. Besides, I don't care about those false names. I am proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I won't be able to use them when I get married in the future, but It’s all fun to pass the time."
Zhou Shiya had spoken to Yuxi for a long time, but Duan Xinrong did not agree. This made Yuxi feel very abnormal, and asked: "What's wrong with you, you haven't spoken for a long time?"
Duan Xinrong whispered: "The Jiang family invited our family to propose marriage on the official media."
Zhou Shiya asked: "Who will you propose to you?"
Yuxi felt that Zhou Shiya was often silly. Seeing Duan Xinrong's face flushed, he knew that the person to propose a marriage must be Duan Xinrong.
Zhou Shiya reacted quickly and asked: "Is it for Jiang Jing, the second young master of the Jiang family, to propose marriage? Jiang Jing, I have seen, looks good, seems to be a good student, and is already a scholar."
Yuxi frowned. She is unfamiliar with the Jiang family, but the two are relatives in-laws, and they will go to wedding wines for important events such as marriages. So she remembered clearly that Jiang Jing married Lin Furong, the niece of Madam Ping Qinghou. It is not clear why Yuxi suffered from the current situation.
Zhou Shiya looked at Yuxi's expression wrong, and hurriedly asked: "What's the matter? Is there a problem with the second young master of the Jiang family?"
Yuxi didn't say a word, she weighed in her heart how to disturb the matter.
Duan Xinrong was a little anxious, and took Yuxi's hand and asked, "Yuxi, if you know anything, you can't hide it from me!" She hadn't seen Jiang Jing, but her mother said that Jiang Jing is good regardless of his appearance, talent or character. good. Her mother's vision has always been very good, but she is still very convinced. But no matter how good her mother's vision is, there are times when she is out of standard.
Zhou Shiya began to think that Yuxi was deliberately frightening Duan Xinrong, but Yuxi still didn't say a word, and her heart also raised her heart: "Yuxi, there is nothing wrong with it? If you know something, you must tell Xinrong! This marriage Major events, one carelessness is a lifetime!"
Yuxi weighed it in her heart for a long time, and said: "I don't know why Jiang's family will go to Duan's family to propose marriage, but as far as I know, Mrs. Jiang's favorite daughter-in-law candidate is Lin Furong, her maiden niece."
Duan Xinrong's expression was uncertain.
Zhou Shiya was very surprised: "No? If Mrs. Jiang likes her niece, how can the Jiang family go to the Duan's family to propose marriage." After finishing speaking, she found that she was stupid. Old lady: "Yuxi, do you mean that it was Mrs. Jiang's idea to propose marriage at the Duan's family?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "I don't know this, but as far as I know, Mrs. Jiang likes Lin Furong very much, and she will often pick him up to stay in the Hou Mansion for a while." The Pingqing Hou Mansion is the same as the Guogong Mansion in the backyard. The real power is Mrs. Jiang. The difference is that the Qiu family has no scheming, no ambitions, and is really filial to Mrs. Han, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along very well. But Ping Qing Hou's wife Lin is different. Lin always wants to be the real head of the family, rather than a housekeeper who only handles housework, so her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been fighting wits and courage all these years. Because of the pressure of filial piety and Mrs. Jiang is also a skilled person, the Lin family has been at a disadvantage over the years.
Zhou Shiya reacted quickly: "Doesn't it mean that Jiang Jing and Lin Furong are cousins of pro-mei and bamboo-horse?" The childhood sweetheart and bamboo-horse are the most annoying.
Yuxi added a sentence: "I don't know what Jiang Jing's attitude towards Lin Furong is, but I know Jiang Yi and Jiang Xin like Lin Furong very much." She knew that things in the inner courtyard were normal, but things in the front yard were abnormal if they knew it. Up.
Duan Xinrong looked at Yuxi and asked, "Yuxi, are all these things true?"
Yuxi laughed and said: "If you don't believe me, let your mother send someone to inquire about it." Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang Lin have been fighting, but the door of the Pingqing Hou Mansion is very strict and wants It is difficult to inquire about the Hou Mansion. However, this difficulty is only relative, and the Duan family is not a small household. As long as they really make this determination, let alone Ping Qing Hou Mansion, they can find out even the news of the imperial palace.
Zhou Shiya said hurriedly: "If this is the case, this marriage can't be concluded." What Ruo Yuxi said is true, and Madam Jiang has appointed Lin Furong as her daughter-in-law! To have the Duan family agree to this marriage is tantamount to offending Mrs. Jiang, and offending her mother-in-law if she didn't get through the door. Don't think about having a good life in the future.
Duan Xinrong is not stupid, how can he not understand the truth in this: "Fortunately, I know it today, or else I don't know what will happen in the future!" Duan Xinrong and Yuxi have also known each other for five years, knowing that Yuxi is not a whisperer. Yuxi said, it must be true. Fortunately, I didn't make a date, and now it's too late to regret it.
