Chapter 41
As if he felt her gaze, Shen Mingzhen turned her head and was startled when she saw Jiang Ruan's appearance. Then she immediately said inexplicably angrily: "Who is she?"
Before the people around him could speak, they saw Jiang Ruan smile slightly, and a trace of unknown meaning flowed out from the end of his eyes, and said indifferently: "Jiang Family, Ruan Niang."
"You are Jiang Ruan?" Shen Mingzhen was stunned. She had heard about Jiang Ruan long ago. She had always had a good relationship with Jiang Susu. Jiang Susu was beautiful and unparalleled but gentle. A few days ago, because of Jiang Ruan's remarks in the court, the Jiang family became the target of public criticism. Even Jiang Susu was frowning for many days. Therefore, in Shen Mingzhen's eyes, Jiang Ruan was a rough, incompetent, cowardly and ugly girl in the mountain village. However, when she saw her today, just not only the demeanor of a noble man in the palace, in terms of appearance, she didn't want to get along with Jiang Susu, and even had a brighter and brighter look.
Jiang Ruan nodded, and Jiang Li smiled and said, "Sister Mingzhen, this is my eldest sister. My eldest sister just came back from the village and was not very familiar with the matter in Beijing. This is the first time I have come to your house."
She emphasized this way, and a trace of contempt flashed in Shen Mingzhen's eyes and said, "There is a difference between the capital and the village, Miss Jiang must take a closer look."
Reverence flashed across Dew and Lian Qiao's face. However, Xia Yan only joked with Mrs. Shen, and did not seem to have noticed this side, so he naturally would not let him go to rescue him.
Needless to say, Jiang Dan was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything. He stood there with his head down, hoping that everyone wouldn't notice her. Jiang Li had already gloated, but what was unexpected was Jiang Susu's attitude, she just stood aside and smiled and didn't speak.
This is the first time such a scene. In the last life, whenever a lady faced Jiang Ruan in a tit-for-tat way, as long as Jiang Susu was present, she would definitely help her. Perhaps it was to win her trust or to win a good reputation, but now she doesn't even want to say a good word. Could it be that she would be unable to calm down?
Jiang Ruan just smiled quietly and did not respond, so she made Shen Mingzhen's punch seem to hit the cotton, which was useless. Shen Mingzhen held her breath and simply grabbed Jiang Susu's hand: "Mom, the ladies and sisters in the hall have been waiting for a long time, let Mrs. Jiang and Sister Suer go quickly."
Shen Mingzhen was arrogant and domineering, and only mentioned Jiang Susu and Xia Yan in his words. It was an irrespectful thing, but Mrs. Shen had no intention of blame and just responded with a smile. Obviously this was a common thing. Shen Mingzhen was really the pearl in the Shen family's hand, and she grew up spoiled since she was a child.
In the hall of Shen Mansion, the ladies and ladies had been waiting for a long time, and they sat together and talked. Someone said, "I heard that the eldest lady of the Jiang family will also appear today."
"Miss Jiang's eldest daughter?" said a wife with high cheekbones: "It is the legitimate daughter who was treated harshly by Secretary Jiang. She was pitiful. She left her own mother at a young age and ended up with a miserable ending now. If it weren't for the chance encounter of the Censor Wang by chance, I would have suffered a lot."
The woman next to her smiled and said, "Although she is a poor person, she heard that she is a relative of the eight characters. There must be some reason for her to be fair in daily life." The woman's face in her life, her eyes are smiling in a slit, just like a kind-hearted and rich Bodhisattva in the temple, looking at her kind-hearted and rich. She continued, "I just grew up in the village, but I can't grow up in the mansion, and there must be something wrong with the second lady of the Jiang Mansion."
Speaking of Miss Jiang's second wife, people thought of Jiang Susu's talent and appearance at the same time, and nodded and agreed: "Miss Jiang is naturally an excellent person, and she is far from Miss Jiang."
"The contrast between Miss Jiang and Miss Jiang Er is too clear."
"It's enough that there is a Miss Jiang Er in the Jiang family. Miss Jiang Er is a talented woman in Beijing. Women who look like a woman in the mountains must be extremely rough, let alone her appearance."
The woman with a disc-faced face smiled even deeper, and nodded to the woman with high cheekbones with an unexpected expression, and started drinking tea slowly. Before the discussion was stopped, someone heard someone shouting, "Look, Mrs. Jiang and the second lady are here."
Everyone raised their heads, and Xia Yan and Jiang Susu were walking in the front. Xia Yan was dressed appropriately and showed their gentle and bookish taste just right. At first glance, they were a gentle and virtuous woman. Such outfits would not prevail over Jiang Susu.
The girl who came in a white fox fur fur, the pipa-necked jacket with a big pipa collar. The jacket was placed at her waist and looked even more slim and charming. Below her waist was a palace-white embroidered brocade skirt. The skirt was extremely large, and it was like clouds and mist in action. She was covered with a silver mouse vest, with a long hair tied with a smile behind her head, and two white ribbons were hung. She had no dew on her face, and the light cherry lips were smiling, dignified and beautiful, and her facial features were beautiful. Her innocent, simple and loneliness looked really as charming as a fairy. As we walked along the way, the women present were already full of praise.
This is common for Jiang Susu, but today is different because the crowd is quickly attracted by the people behind Jiang Susu.
The girl following Jiang Susu slowly walked forward like a ball of fire in the snow and a plum blossom in the frost and snow, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. The gold-carved butterfly wore a narrow silver jacket with a large red satin, a jade-scattered satin skirt, and a gold-cut cloud-dig red-scented sheepskin boots. This outfit was already very rich, but when worn on this girl, it was as wealthy as she should have. The white fox fur exposed by the sleeves of the big red crane flap had a silver light, which was really energetic and radiant.
The girl got closer and closer. When she saw that appearance, everyone couldn't help but hold her breath. She was already white, and under a little powder, it was like the best mutton fat jade. Her lips became redder, like the red glow in the sky in the morning. Her eyes were pitch black, and her light was as charming as spring. When she looked at it carefully, she felt that the rising corners of her eyes seemed to contain a hint of cold irony. The green snail eyebrows were long and beautiful, and Jiang Susu was already beautiful and refined. However, the girl was beautiful and vivid, which made everyone who had seen the fairy just lit up. It seemed as if she saw the lively charms appearing from the flowers, and the flowers were coming all the way through the willows.
Looking at the girl's skirt was not moving at all during her movements, her hands were folded upright on her chest, and her hair was not moving at all. However, under the appearance of the Ming people, she had a quiet and noble charm. Such a unique charm rarely appeared on young girls, which made people feel that it was only time.
What is most surprising is that she and Jiang Susu stood together, with a similar temperament. If you even look closely, you will feel that the beautiful and refined fairy suddenly lost a little color in front of this lively and fragrant elf. The pure and snow-white white is really inferior to the passionate and unrestrained red.
"It's the eldest girl of the Jiang family!" A lady murmured.
