Chapter 26 (1/2)
One second remember, provide you with wonderful novel reading. ”Grandma, this hairpin is really beautiful. I haven't seen it before. Did I give it to you?”
Aunt Jiang looked up and down at Xu ranyun, who was looking in front of the mirror after she was dressed up, with a proper smile on her face.
Sure enough, this flattery flattered Xu ranyun. She smiled and said: ”Isn't it? I just brought it back to me. I said it was the Dragon Boat Festival today. Let me wear this hairpin. It's beautiful, but I'm afraid the price is not low. Look at the layers of golden flowers on it, gold is all. But I don't know how much effort it took to buy this skill. Where can I buy it at ordinary prices?”
”Isn't it? Jinhua is nothing more than skillful craftsmanship. The most valuable thing is the Pearl in Huaxin. It's so big and mellow that she can't get down without a hundred liang of silver.” aunt Jiang saw Xu ranyun happy and naturally worked harder to make fun of it. Suddenly, the girl outside the door said that the two young masters had cleaned up, so she asked for instructions: ”Grandma, let's go now. The old lady always likes to be lively. It's not good if she goes late.”
Xu ranyun nodded and went out with aunt Jiang. She saw that Duan Maoming and Duan Maochuan were also well packed. She praised a few words and looked around the yard. She saw that the door monkey, peach tree branches, Artemisia argyi and other things had been properly inserted. Then she took several girls and women to the old Taijun in the north courtyard.
Coincidentally, I happened to meet Xue Zhilan on the road. He took his two sons Duan maofan and Duan Maosen, followed by Aunt Jing, who was very beautiful. Two beautiful women stood together, one as beautiful as peaches and plums and the other as elegant as orchids. It was really very pleasing to the eyes.
Xu ranyun was also very beautiful. However, standing in front of the two women, he was also a little ashamed. Because of his jealousy, his face was full of a smile and said, ”why don't you see sister Yu?”
Xue Zhilan smiled shyly and gently and said softly, ”she's not very sharp these two days. She's afraid of the wind. I simply let the wet nurse look after her and don't let her go out. Speaking of it, what about sister Qin? Why can't she see? Isn't she uncomfortable?”
”It's not. I probably got cold in the quilt yesterday. I had stomach trouble this morning.”
As they spoke, they walked side by side. They secretly looked at each other's clothes and jewelry. At a glance, they knew everything in their hearts. Duan Tingxuan was obviously very fair. Each person had one exquisite jewelry, each with its own merits. The Phoenix hairpin on Xue Zhilan's head was no worse than the golden hairpin on Xu ranyun's head. Even the Jasper hairpin on Aunt Jing's head looked worse than these two The noble spirit of a flat wife is also special, which is very suitable for her pure and ethereal temperament.
What an amorous seed.
This is the same evaluation of Duan Tingxuan in the hearts of women. Of course, it is not commendatory. However, the husband is this temperament. No matter how they compete for favor openly and secretly, they can't monopolize the heart of the king. They can only bite their teeth and scold secretly in their heart. On the surface, they have to pretend to be harmonious, and they have to spend more time on words to belittle others and raise themselves.
When she came to Lao Taijun's house, she saw that Mrs. Yang had arrived. The middle-aged beautiful woman sitting next to her was Mr. Duan's flat wife Liu Min, who was also Mr. Hou's cousin. Everyone in the family called Mrs. min.
Different from his bastard son, the old Marquis's heart belongs to his cousin, but his feelings for his wife are very weak. This is also the fundamental reason why Mrs. Yang is always afraid that Duan Tingxuan's son-in-law will be taken away. It's normal to have such a rival in love. The pressure is great, and it's a bit of a victim delusion.
Liu Min has only one son, Duan tingye. He has an idle job as a first-class general. He usually takes care of family affairs and is very popular with the old Marquis. This inevitably makes him think about the position of the son of the world. However, at present, Duan Tingxuan's position in the Dynasty and the royal family is very strong, so Duan Erye can only bury his caution in his heart.
At this moment, he and his wife Shi sat next to Lao Tai Jun Fang, talking and laughing to make the old lady happy. At the bottom of Liu Min's head, there stood a cowardly woman, aunt Lin, who was in the room that Lao Tai Jun Fang gave to Duke Duan. They had a son and a daughter, but they all followed their mother's weak and cowardly nature. At this time, they all bowed their heads and stood behind their mother without saying a word.
As soon as Xu ranyun, Xue Zhilan and others arrived, the atmosphere immediately became lively. The women talked and laughed for a while. Seeing that it was nearly noon, old Taijun Fang frowned and said, ”why hasn't xuan'er come down yet? Today's Dragon Boat Festival, he is even busier when he takes a day off in the Yamen?”
