Chapter 349 ?
After saying this, Qiu Wuhen stood up and looked at Liniang. Liniang understood. After Qiu Wuhen went out, she asked Xuehua to go to Miss Jin to get some flowers that Madam needed for the first day.
To use it for embroidery, she actually sent Xuehua away, because Liniang felt that it was better not to let others know what she was going to tell Madam about. After all, it was not a very glorious thing.
Su Jinxiang finished her meal absent-mindedly early in the morning. Yu'er sent the woman who was the rough messenger in the outer courtyard to tell the concierge that the young lady would go shopping later and prepare a carriage. Now that there were two carriages at home, they had already inquired that Madam was not going out today.
, then Qiu Wuhen takes one away, and there is still a carriage available.
"Yu'er, did you tell Dong Lang the place to meet?" Su Jinxiang sat in front of the bronze mirror, and Yu'er combed her hair. Although Su Jinxiang in the mirror was thirteen years old, she could already see some beauty and appearance.
Like her mother Luo Shi.
"Miss, you have asked me ten times early in the morning. I told Mr. Dong last night that you would be waiting for him at Jingxiang Pavilion in the east of the city."
Su Jinxiang glared at Yu'er from the mirror, but Yu'er was not afraid because she saw a smile on her young lady's lips.
"Do you think it's okay for me to wear this outfit?" Su Jinxiang asked anxiously.
Yu'er is only one year older than Su Jinxiang, and it was only after they came to Beijing that she was bought into the house to follow this third girl, but she felt that Su Jinxiang was very similar to a widow named Zhang Cuilian in their village. Yu'er's mother always said
That Widow Zhang couldn't think of anything else but thinking about men all day long. She didn't work or cook, and didn't even care about her children. She just dressed up and leaned against the crooked-necked tree in front of her door.
Seducing men passing by.
Yu'er didn't know why the childish little girl in the mirror was more anxious to get married than her elder sister. It was great to stay in this family, and she was much happier than the sisters in her village who had not yet left the palace. But
The third girl said she didn't want to work, but in Yu'er's mind, all the work in the backyard was not considered work. Moreover, when she returned to the room, she had a maid serving her tea and water. This third girl was really in a blessed state.
She doesn't know how to be lucky. She doesn't even know that her mother said that a girl's happiest time is when she is unmarried. She doesn't understand why this third girl has not thought about a good life, but she is her own lady after all.
, she cannot disobey her.
"Okay, she looks good. She looks good in anything she wears." Yu'er said with a flattering smile.
At this time, in Su Jinsong's room, Liniang saw that Su Jinsong's face had darkened after she finished talking about this matter. She saw her clenching her hands on the table, her lips pursed tightly, and her eyes lowered.
Chui said nothing. Liniang had rarely seen Su Jinsong lose his composure like this. She was afraid that she would be angry, so she quickly stepped forward to comfort her in a low voice.
"Madam, please don't worry. This matter may not be as serious as Perfect imagined, but it's just a child's temperament. Let's ask first."
Su Jinsong seemed to be holding a long breath. After a while, he let out a long breath and sighed: "Get the car ready, you accompany me to the Liu Mansion."
Liniang didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly went out to tell Xuehua to prepare the car, and then came back to dress Su Jinsong. Su Jinsong was not a wordy person. After a while, the two of them went out. As soon as they reached the door of the courtyard, they saw
Su Jinxiang brought Yu'er over here.
"Madam, I'm afraid I have to go out, so I'll come here and tell you about this."
"You find a way to get back to her, I'll wait for you in the carriage."
Su Jinxiang saw the eldest sister walking towards the door without looking back. Yu'er on the side said gratefully: "Miss, looking at the lady's dress, it seems that she is going out. If the lady is going out, then we will not have a carriage when we go out today.
.”
Su Jinxiang became anxious when she saw this. She was supposed to go out last night, but she was stopped by that damn Jin Xiyan. She didn't even eat breakfast so early today, but she still didn't catch up. Thinking of this, she didn't care and quickly pushed away.
Pushing Yu'er, he said urgently: "Hurry up and tell Madam that we are going out today. Let her wait for us."
However, Yu'er instantly withered and said, "Miss, what are you going to say to Madam? Do you want her to send you to Jingxiang Pavilion to meet Mr. Dong?"
Su Jinxiang was stunned, and before she could speak, she saw Liniang walking over. Su Jinxiang was always rude to the servants in the yard, but she was the only one who didn't dare to treat Liniang. She was the stewardess of the Qiu Mansion, and she was also the wife.
Secondly, she heard that Liniang had such good skills that she could fly over walls and climb over walls. Although she had never seen it, she didn’t want to see it for fear of offending this very beautiful but not so beautiful person.
A woman who loves to laugh.
"Third Miss, where are you going?" Liniang stepped forward and bowed.
"I, I... I was just going to say hello to eldest sister. Is eldest sister going out? Can you take me with you? I also want to go out and have a look. I haven't gone out for a long time."
Liniang looked back at Su Jinsong who had disappeared at the gate, then looked at Su Jinxiang again and said, "Where are you going, Miss Three? What are you going to buy?"
Su Jinxiang didn't care much after hearing this, and quickly said with a smile: "Sister Liniang, Yu'er and I want to sell some embroidery threads on the street."
"Now, isn't it true that the third girl's sewing work is all given to Miss Jin to help her embroider?"
"Sister Liniang, our young lady wanted to learn how to embroider just because she saw Miss Jin doing it well." Yu'er said quickly.
Su Jinxiang on the side also nodded repeatedly, and Liniang said: "I can't make the decision on this. Why don't you ask Madam yourself? But when we go to Liu Mansion, there is no embroidery village around."
When Su Jinxiang heard that she was going to Liu's Mansion, her eyes suddenly lit up. Isn't that the east of the city? It was like God was helping her. She quickly said: "It doesn't matter. Why don't you let the coachman take the eldest sister to Liu's Mansion first, and then send us off?"
Can I go buy some needlework?"
Of course, Liniang saw the expressions of Su Jinxiang and Yu'er. Liniang thought for a while, then smiled and said: "That's fine, but the carriage is too small and can't fit in. Why don't Yu'er stop going and leave it later?"
Please go shopping with the third girl."
"this……"
Su Jinxiang also knew that her brother-in-law usually used the slightly smaller carriage, and the larger carriage was reserved for the eldest sister. Originally, there was no problem in seating four or five people, but the eldest sister put a few desks, bookshelves, and some cushions in it.
This way, not to mention four people, even three people are a bit crowded inside.
"The madam is waiting for the servants. Are you going, Miss Three?" Liniang urged.
Yu'er glanced at her young lady and tugged on her sleeves anxiously. After all, they were two children who were no more than thirteen or fourteen years old. They had no idea for a moment. Just as they were hesitating, Su Jinxiang shook her head and said: "Forget it."
Well, then I’d better not go. Sister can’t be without people around me, and I don’t have a fixed place. Walking around takes time, so you go ahead. It won’t be too late for us to go tomorrow. By the way, you won’t go out tomorrow.
Bar?"
Su Jinxiang thought that she would ask Yu'er to go out to deliver a letter later, and now she had arranged the carriage to avoid being unable to leave tomorrow.
Liniang smiled and said, "I don't know yet, but that slave has resigned."
Su Jinxiang watched helplessly as Liniang's graceful figure disappeared from sight. She couldn't help but stamp her feet fiercely and muttered: "I hate it!"
Liniang hurriedly walked to the carriage and got in. The carriage started to drive slowly. It was very warm inside the carriage. Su Jinsong was leaning on a pile of cushions. She rarely looked so lazy, even if it was just her and Liniang.
Personally, she also sat upright and acted very well-educated. She was really like this today... Liniang thought about it and poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her.
"Madam, have a cup of tea."
Su Jinsong then stood up to take it and smiled at Liniang, but the smile was really ugly.
"I thought she would follow." Su Jinsong put the tea to his mouth, took a sip, and then placed it on the table. Liu's driving skills were very good and there were few bumps.
Liniang smiled and said, "Madam, she still understands her sister." After saying that, she saw Su Jinsong snorting and looking very sarcastic.
I also told you about the bright eyes.
Su Jinsong said: "There is no chance that a female university student will be admitted."
Liniang said: "Madam, you think this Dong Lang is someone the Liu family knows?"
Su Jinsong glanced at Liniang, thought for a while, and said: "I was just thinking about what kind of girl Xiang'er is. I watched her grow up, and in the blink of an eye she actually wanted to secretly carry us..."
She really couldn't say the word lover to her sister, so she frowned slightly, sighed, and said: "So I want to ask my adoptive mother, if it's really someone the Liu family knows, if possible, we can arrange this marriage."
Come on, don’t wait until...sigh,"
"But since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers. Even Mrs. Su and the eldest lady don't know about this matter."
"It's okay, let's go check out the situation first, and then I'll tell my mother and grandmother."
At this time, Qiu Wuhen was entrusted by the Imperial College to give calligraphy lessons to the students.
Seeing that Qiu Wuhen was so young when he stood on the podium, and most of the people in the Imperial College were already past their thirties, and had failed despite repeated attempts, they heard that Qiu Wuhen was just an imperial doctor, and in terms of reputation, he was just a scholar.
, all look down upon him. But it is quite remarkable to think that someone can use his status as a scholar to get an official from the sixth rank.
He may not be able to write if he is an official. This calligraphy still requires some effort. The time you practice is too short and not enough. People have practiced for twenty years, but you can’t compare after practicing for two days. And this can be said to be absolutely amazing.
Most people were older than Qiu Wuhen and felt that they spent much more time on the brush than Qiu Wuhen, so they were really puzzled that the Imperial College would invite such a person to teach calligraphy.
