Chapter 41
When the examination was going on, all the noble ladies in the capital were not idle. In the unprecedented atmosphere of worshiping literature, women were increasingly not considered to be virtuous without talent, and talented women gradually became a title that the noble ladies of the upper class competed for.
【】
Yu Zhu looked at the post that had just been sent and asked Qin Si who was waiting on the side: "I have been away from the capital all year round. What is going on with this Zhixin? Tell me."
Qinsi was very flattered when she was asked something. She thought for a moment and quickly lowered her head and said respectfully: "This was originally a party where the noble ladies from the capital gathered to play. Later, it was added to the display of poetry, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting."
, Every spring, not only the men compete, but the noble ladies also compete to win or lose." After she finished speaking, she thought about it and then carefully complimented: "This Zhixin Club is not something that ordinary noble ladies can enter, because of their talent and talent.
, looks and family background are both indispensable. It’s really amazing that the young lady received the invitation just after she returned to Beijing.”
Looking at the maid with a sincere face with a half-smile, Yu Zhu said lightly: "Really? I've only been famous for a few days since I returned to Beijing. It's just a game for young ladies with a noble enough status.
Appearance is secondary."
Qinsi was fully confident that this young lady was still young and she must have loved to hear good things. She didn't expect to be so calm and could not hear any emotions or anger at all. She couldn't help complaining in her heart that this master was not easy to serve. Because of her little thoughts just now,
A look of sarcasm appeared on her face.
Zaoyuan couldn't bear it and stepped forward to rescue him: "Do you still want to go, then?"
"Okay, now that this post has been sent, there's no reason not to go." Yu Zhu muttered, suddenly changing from the enigmatic demeanor just now to the coquettish and naive look of a boudoir lady: "I made fried wheat noodles for my brother last night.
I’m exhausted, and the person who posted this post doesn’t know how to be considerate, it’s really annoying.”
She turned her head and smiled innocently at Qin Si, and said delicately: "Qin Si, go and tell your mother, I will go when Zhixin meets, and ask your mother to prepare the carriage and horses."
Qin Si's little thoughts were restrained, she bowed and hurried out.
As expected, Yulan also received the post. Qinsi looked very angry when she came back. Before Yuzhu asked, she told everything she saw and heard at Cui's place.
It turns out that after receiving the post, Yulan took it for granted that Yuzhu was too young and must not have received it, so she went to show off to Mrs. Cui, saying that she would definitely give credit to the family, and she secretly belittled Yuzhu, her legitimate daughter.
"Humph, I heard a few words outside and was furious, so I ran in and told my wife that the second girl's face at that time was of any color, and she left without even bowing to my wife."
Yu Zhu just smiled after hearing this. This concubine is really disabled and her character seems to have been fixed. However, she still can't underestimate it. If she does something that hurts the enemy a thousand times and hurts herself eight hundred, she will have no place to cry.
To sum it up in one sentence, it’s not good to be too stupid. It’s completely impossible to infer based on common sense. I don’t know how she will take action.
Being a legitimate daughter may not necessarily be easy, but being a legitimate daughter with a powerful mother is very comfortable. Yu Zhu does not need to spend too much effort to please his father and manage his servants, but he is still the most favored and valued by his father, and his servants also follow him.
I don't dare to slight the third lady. This kind of dignity is not obtained by threatening the servants to do things for themselves, or by beating, scolding and scolding them. It is a matter of course. No one will ask "why". This is the right person.
The difference between common people, coupled with Cui's quiet planning, tilted the balance even more, so that there is almost no comparison at all.
Therefore, Yu Zhu has never been angry at Yu Lan's provocations and sarcasm from time to time over the years. At most, he only listens to a few nonsense words. In terms of unpleasantness, it is not even half as bad as the various humiliations and difficulties he suffered when working in his previous life, let alone what.
There will be no real impact. Others will even think that the legitimate daughter has such a broad mind, so why bother to take care of her? If you have that time, you might as well study more and have something in common when talking to your father, that kind of
She wouldn't do the stupid thing of losing the watermelon and picking up the sesame seeds.
After a while, someone came from the old lady. It turned out that all three girls in the house except the fourth girl, Lin Yuju, were invited. The old lady was very happy and said that she finally had an extra girl in the family this year, and she ordered the girls to do their best.
Dress up, don't lose the face of the Hou Mansion.
Because it was the first time for her daughter to participate in an important social event, Mrs. Cui was not at ease. She rushed to Yuzhu's Youzhu Residence in person, fearing that her precious daughter would deal with it carelessly again. If she left a bad impression, she would want to clean it up in the future.
It's difficult.
"This one is too plain, no, how can a little girl's house be so plain? This is no better than at home..." Ms. Cui babbled and turned around again to dig hard in the large mahogany carved round corner cabinet.
"Mom, I've changed four pieces of clothes, and I can't even lift my arms... wasn't the one just now pretty good?" Yu Zhu was thinking about whether to make a doll for my mother and let her change its clothes every day.
, so as not to trouble yourself.
In the end, Ms. Cui was finally satisfied with a small jacket made of evening haze, purple damask, tender yellow, folded branches of magnolia and precious flowers, twill weft brocade and thin brocade. It was paired with a white silk-painted pick, twelve pleated skirts with crimson edges, and a pair of skirts at her feet.
Small embroidered shoes with pink and purple bottoms embroidered with ivy and green lace.
He then directed Zaoyuan, who was good at combing her hair, to give Yu Zhuwan a bun with a small purple butterfly wing ball-studded pearl hairpin and a gem-encrusted butterfly play double flower gilt silver hairpin. After thinking about it, he found another pair.
The magnolia bud-shaped earrings hang from the jade-like earlobes.
After getting dressed, Ms. Cui finally breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing that her daughter didn't want to put on makeup, she didn't force her to do it. She just let her apply some balm, trace her eyebrows, and sweep the corners of her eyes.
"Don't be vindictive when you go. The most taboo thing for our young ladies is to be petty-minded and aggressive. As long as there is a quarrel, no matter who started it, it doesn't matter whether it is right or wrong. The reputations of both parties will be ruined. Zhu Yatou can't do anything about it.
You can't hold back your anger." The more Ms. Cui thought about it, the more worried she became. If only noble ladies were not invited to the banquet, she would have wanted to follow her and look at her precious daughter. "Also, if others treat you well, you will be stupid.
Believe everything, there are many people who talk sweetly but don't know what they are talking about. Of course, you can't act like a petty person and make others laugh." Ms. Cui wished she could tell her daughter all her experiences and save her from being hurt.
However, dear mother, no one is a god, so how can she remain unharmed for the rest of her life? You are destined to be unable to protect your daughter throughout her life. It is not easy for a woman to survive in this world, and her daughter will have to walk out of your protection sooner or later.
It’s so dark that you can’t see the road outside alone. No matter what the consequences, no one can help you. You have done enough. Please leave the rest to your daughter to face. Live a new life, everything in the world, greed.
Angry and delusional thoughts are, at best, nothing more than getting it, I am lucky, but not getting it, I am destined.
that is it.
Rain Bamboo wore an elegant and decent smile, walked with great grace and dignity, like a clump of green bamboo dancing in the rain, growing vigorously and stubbornly.
