Under the carved window, Ruoyi, who had just finished breakfast, lazily leaned against the window lattice, watching the girls in and out of the house tidying up the house.Tomorrow is the day of Su Ruli's marriage, she should go to the house to add boxes to Su Ruli, but she just can't keep up."
County Lord" Aunt Zhu came in around the screen of spring flowers and rain, Ruoyi turned her head and frowned lightly and said, "I don't want to go." ”She listened to Aunt Liang about the dowry in the eldest princess's mansion, and Aunt Liang also explained the decent dowry for her, and finally told her that she was afraid that this was a means for the eldest princess to beat the second sister.She also understands that the dowry has something to do with her secretly sending a letter to the third brother, but whether the dowry is the meaning of the third brother or the eldest princess, it is not something she can manage.Although she had already made a decision, she couldn't face the third aunt and second sister as if she didn't know anything and nothing had happened.Aunt Zhu was stunned, and cautiously stepped forward to ask: "Is it uncomfortable?"
The county lord has been pregnant these days, she has been able to eat and drink, she has never vomited, and she has never been sleepy, and she also joked with Aunt Liang, saying that the little master in the county lord's belly is a mother who hurts.Could it be that the county lord's reaction came Ruoyi nodded, and when he saw Aunt Zhu's nervous appearance, he shook his head again, and only said, "I just don't want to go, and I feel sullen and panicked." ”Aunt Zhu still wanted to ask, but Aunt Liang's elbow lightly hit Aunt Zhu, and Aunt Zhu's words came to her mouth and swallowed.Aunt Liang said tentatively: "That old slave brought lychees over the house and sent things over, but it's good" Ruoyi sat up straight, her crescent-like brows furrowed, and after picking out gifts for the Shen family, she picked out several copies together for Aunt Liang to prepare, and now she can't remember what the gift for Su Ruli is.She sighed softly: "Bring the things, I'll take a look." ”Aunt Liang responded, gave Aunt Zhu a look, and turned out.Aunt Zhu also came out, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Liang, what's wrong with the county lord" Aunt Liang glanced at Aunt Zhu reproachfully, and said in a low voice: "What, I'm used to living a good life, you don't even have a little eyesight" Aunt Zhu was stunned, and was woken up by Aunt Liang's unkind words, and after thinking about it slightly, she understood, her face showed a trace of unbearability, and sighed: "Yes, I haven't sent a message for so long." ”After saying goodbye at the gate of the mansion that day, not only did the master not come to the house again at night, but he didn't send a message to the girl on weekdays, if it weren't for the few nights staring at the Cao family who said in unison that the master was fine, she really thought that the master was imprisoned by someone.The county lord didn't mention the lord again, and there was nothing wrong with it on weekdays, she thought that the county lord was a child's heart, and she forgot about it for a while recently, and she didn't think that the county lord had suppressed these things in his heart and hid them.Such a person who is as transparent as glass can hide from her eyes, Sister Liang scolded right, she has been living a good life for a long time, she doesn't need to be careful step by step, and even the county lord's mind is a little ignored.Aunt Zhu couldn't help but complain to Cao Mo again: "Is the master?"
she couldn't say the next words.In the past, the lord doted on the county lord everywhere, lest she be inconsiderate, everything was thought of, and she couldn't believe that it was a cold lord who could do it; But now the master suddenly let go, without even a word, and it is really like the nature of the master.If everything was stupid before, and now it is true, then after the county lord knows the truth, can he afford such a blow If the lord is only a temporary compromise now, it is not true, but what he did has affected the county lord, and the county lord's mood has changed because of this, and then the lord will not think that this is no longer the county lord in her heart, no matter which way it is said, it is not beneficial to the county lord, once the man changes his mind, but he can't catch it.She has been in the palace for so many years, and she has seen countless little lords who have been favored, fallen out of favor, and finally aged in the loneliness of the harem.She really didn't want the county lord to face all this in the future.Aunt Liang reminded heartily: "Right now, we have to put the county lord first. ”The rest of the things are not up to the rest of them.As long as the county lord can give birth to a child safely, whether it is reconciled with the lord in the future, or that's it, the county lord has a child by his side, the old lady and the uncle have to protect the county lord tightly, and Zuo Gongzi outside is still affectionate to the county lord, and the county lord does not need to hang himself on the tree of the lord.Aunt Zhu also nodded: "Hmm." ”Liang Mali found out the box gift prepared for Su Ruli and took it into the room.Ruo Yi opened the box, and inside the box was a pair of stone cloud phoenix pattern gold sideburns with red gems inlaid in Antai Pavilion.This pair of ruby cloud and phoenix pattern gold sideburns was ordered by her a long time ago, and at that time, she didn't know that Su Ruli would promise it to Zhao Shuhan.But now, feeling that this pair of ruby cloud phoenix pattern gold sideburns is not suitable, she has a new plan."
There are sachets and purses made of embroidery that you can get your hands on," Aunt Liang thought carefully for a while, and said: "The old slave remembers that there are a few illegal purses among the gifts sent by each family.The county lord will wait for a while, and the old slave will go to look for it. ”Aunt Liang acted properly, and it didn't take much effort to dig out the five Wei Jin purses and send them to Ruoyi.Ruo Yi looked at the five purses on the plate, and couldn't tell whether they were good or bad, but felt that the patterns on them were beautifully embroidered and lifelike, as if they could attract butterflies.She reached out and took out the rich peony land: "That's it." ”Without waiting for Aunt Liang to ask, she said again: "Aunt Liang went to get a silver ticket of 1,000 taels." ”"One thousand taels," Aunt Liang asked in surprise.Ruoyi nodded: "Yes, one thousand taels." ”Yesterday, the fourth sister told her that after calculating, the public middle school gave her a dowry of 5,000 taels, which was 1,000 taels more than the second sister, so she would give the extra 1,000 taels to the second sister.This thousand taels is all her pressed box silver, and if she wants more, she doesn't have it anymore.She can't let go of what her little brother and Cao Mo gave her unconditionally.What's more, between the third brother and Su Ruli, she will still favor the third brother, so she will keep some distance from now on.Aunt Liang saw that Ruoyi's attitude was firm, not like an idea that came to her mind when her brain was hot, so she didn't ask much at the moment, opened Ruoyi's dressing box, and took out the silver ticket from the bottom mezzanine.Ruoyi directly folded the silver ticket into small squares and stuffed it into the purse and handed it to Aunt Liang: "Send this over." ”Aunt Liang took the purse, stretched out her hand and pointed to the ruby cloud and phoenix pattern gold sideburns on the table, and asked: "Then this pair of ruby cloud and phoenix pattern gold sideburns will also be sent over to add makeup to the second girl" Ruo Yi thought for a while, and finally shook her head.Aunt Liang was not surprised, she knew in her heart that the county lord had completely had a relationship with the second girl.Aunt Liang took the lychee to the General's Mansion and went straight to Su Ruli's courtyard.Su Ruli watched Aunt Liang enter the door with lychees, she was a little surprised, she put down the doubts in her heart, and asked: "Fifth sister went to see grandfather first" Aunt Liang was short and said: "The county lord is a little uncomfortable, let the old slave come over to congratulate the second girl." ”She raised her hand slightly, and Lychee sent the brocade box in her hand: "This is the box prepared by the county lord for the second girl." ”Su Ruli listened to Aunt Liang's congratulatory words and sent the brocade box in front of her, her mind was empty, and the corners of her eyes couldn't help but moisten.The fifth sister did not come to her mother's move, or did the fifth sister have a gap with her Su Ruli There are already a lot of female dependents in the house, most of them are the daughters of the Zou family, and several older ones frowned slightly when they heard Aunt Liang's words.They weren't unhappy because Ruoyi didn't arrive, but the word "add a box" in Aunt Liang's words.Adding boxes and adding makeup, there is only a word difference, but the intimacy is obvious.Adding a box is a gift for the family, and adding makeup is the friendship between sisters, even if it is a handkerchief, a beaded flower, it is also the heart of the sisters.And this Changle county lord only adds boxes, not makeup, which can't help but make people think deeply.Su Ruli couldn't hold back, and asked: "Aunt Liang, where is the fifth sister uncomfortable" The eldest and youngest grandmother of the Zou family felt that Su Ruli's words were a little rude, and hurriedly helped to make up: "The county lord is pregnant, it should be a bad thing, and it is inconvenient to come." ”Aunt Liang just smiled slightly, motioned to Lychee to put the brocade box on the table, lowered her body again, and said, "The old slave still has to go back to the old lady, so he will retire." ”Su Ruli also felt that she had lost her temper just now, and embarrassedly asked Aunt Liang to bring a few polite words back to Ruoyi.In the house, many people's eyes are staring at the brocade box on the table, the box is small, it looks ordinary, the eighth girl of the Zou family is only seven years old this year, the child's heart has not been removed, come over: "Second sister, open it and take a look, what is a good thing." ”Su Ruli didn't want to open it in public, but seeing that everyone in the house was concerned about the brocade box, she couldn't save face, so she had to open the brocade box in public.The eight girls of the Zou family glanced at it and complained: "It's just a purse, how can I say that my cousin is also the sister of the county lord, don't you feel cold when you only send one purse?"
"Eight girls" and "eight sisters" Su Ruli and the eldest and youngest grandmothers of the Zou family spoke in unison, but the words still fell into the ears of many people.Su Ruli was a little annoyed, but the eighth cousin was only seven years old, and she couldn't reprimand, so she had to say, "I like it very much." ”Su Ruying was displeased, her words seemed to be speaking for her fifth sister, but they were not thoughtful.She picked up the purse, looked at it carefully, glanced at the eight girls of the Zou family, and said lightly: "Eight girls, you have to take a closer look at this purse." ”The eight girls of the Zou family didn't look at it, "It's not just a purse, although it's pretty." ”The grandmother of the Zou family took a closer look and praised: "The fabric of this purse is weft brocade, with Suzhou embroidery on it, and the marks of the five ladies of Suzhou are on the side corners."
Suzhou five ladies, only 20 embroideries a year, one is hard to find. ”The embroidery of Suzhou Wuniang, even if it is just a purse, is extremely rare.But what she didn't say was that no matter how rare it was, it was just a purse, it was enough to add makeup, and it was really cold as a box.Su Ruli's heart warmed, "Fifth sister still remembers my preferences. ”She remembered that at the Huang family's recognition banquet, she praised the Su embroidered handkerchief that Huang gave to her fifth sister, and the fifth sister intended to transfer it to her.Sure enough, the fifth sister still has a heart.The eighth girl of the Zou family was a little annoyed, she was young, but she had heard the name of the five ladies in Suzhou, and her curiosity rose, "I'll take a look." ”She grabbed the purse in her hand and looked through it carefully, and felt that the purse was bulging, like something, "Hey, there is something in it." ”She flipped out the contents, and a few silver tickets were opened in front of everyone's eyes.The eldest and youngest grandmother of the Zou family laughed: "This county lord is really a clever person, originally this purse was added to makeup, and the box was added to the purse." ”Is this really the case, Su Ruying doesn't think so, and Su Ruli doesn't think so either.They all thought of the matter of the Zou family's dowry.At the beginning, the Zou family used the fifth sister's dowry as an excuse, and now the extra 1,000 taels were sent back in this way.Is this the idea of the fifth sister, or the idea of the people around the fifth sister, or the idea of the grandfather, what does this mean Su Ruying lowered her eyes and said nothing, but Su Ruli blushed.The next day, Su Ruli got married.Once again, the general's mansion hung up red lanterns high, and the doors of the mansion were opened to welcome relatives and friends who came to congratulate them, and the mansion was full of joy outside the mansion.Ruoyi didn't come early, but saw that the hour was almost up before going out.Ruoyi got off the carriage at the gate of the mansion, and before she got on the soft sedan chair, Yuling hurriedly greeted her: "My fifth aunt and grandmother, you can be regarded as coming, the second girl has been waiting for you." ”"Wait for me" Ruoyi was surprised, isn't this bride the busiest, on the day she got married, she slept until dawn and got up, and Aunt Zhu nagged all day, saying that other girls got up before dawn to freshen up.Aunt Zhu smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the second girl is panicking and wants the sisters to accompany her." ”Yuling also responded beside her: "Yes, the girl has been flustered in the morning, but later the four girls and the seven girls came, so the girl was more relieved." ”Ruoyi was still a little hesitant, but when she heard that Su Ruying and Su Ruke were also there, she was relieved, got into the soft sedan chair, and said unhurriedly: "If you have anything to panic, put on your hijab, close your eyes, and go out." ”The oranges and dates next to "poof" couldn't help laughing.Aunt Zhu smiled and shook her head: "Look at what the girl said, how heroic." ”Ruoyi arrived at Su Ruli's yard, Su Ruli was combing her hair, listening to Mrs.
Quanfu singing: "Once you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about being rich; The second comb is combed to the hair, disease-free and worry-free; Three combs to the hair, many sons and many longevity; then comb to the end, raise the case and raise the eyebrows; the second comb is combed to the end; Bi Wing Fly Together; Three combs to the end, forever knotted with one heart.There are heads and tails, rich and noble. ”She stopped, and she remembered that when she got married, she also listened to Mrs.
Quanfu sing such a combing song.She is indeed as sung in the song, rich and noble, disease-free and worry-free; But the man was no longer with her.She looked back at Aunt Zhu, very aggrieved, and said in a low voice, "Auntie, I miss him." ”t1706231537:
