Chapter 179 (1/2)
After dealing with Qiao's family, the old lady ordered her servant girl to carry out five sewing baskets with colorful thread, beads the size of soya beans, agate, jade and jadeite. She said to the five little girls headed by Fu Rong: ”it's Dragon Boat Festival. You can make colorful silk and wear it on your wrist to celebrate. I remember that everyone gave me a bunch of them. The best thing to see is to have a reward.”
The five women expressed their thanks.
Shen Qing took the initiative to invite a few sisters: ”grandmother and second aunt talk, let's go to my side to make up.”
Fu Bao didn't like her, but he didn't dare to face Shen Qing in front of the old lady. If he didn't speak, he should have.
Fu Rong had never met Shen Qing when he came to Beijing late in his previous life. He only knew that Shen Qing married Fu Bao's Lin family cousin. Later, Fu Bao entered the prince's mansion with some element of pique. Fu Rong was very curious about Fu Bao's relationship. He was very happy to see the excitement.
Seeing that both she and Fu Xuan should answer, Fu Mi nods a little uneasily.
The five girls moved to Shen Qing's yuxuexuan.
Fu Rong sat next to Fu Xuan. They also made colorful threads at home. Before entering Beijing, they tied them for Guan Ge'er in advance. Qiao's and Fu Wan's made them were put on Guan's wrist, and Fu Rong's and Fu Xuan's were tied to his wrists. Colorful thread is also called long life thread. It can protect the little guy's health and live a long life.
”Three elder sister, why does the second aunt call you thick?” Everyone is quiet. Shen Qing, as the host, intends to enliven the atmosphere.
Fu Rong looked up at her.
Shen Qing is twelve years old. Fu Baomi is one year old. She has willow eyebrows, apricot eyes and snow skin. She looks like an old lady.
”Because I couldn't pronounce clearly when I was a child, I always said Rong into Nong, so I got such a nickname.” Fu Rong explained in a low voice that he picked up a Red Agate Bead and strung it on the colorful line.
