Jia Hu of the Red Chamber

Yuanchun is over twelve years old, and it is a good time on the branches of cloves and the tips of cardamom, and it has a good appearance again, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, straight nose and cherry mouth, and anyone who sees it will praise him.

In addition, as the eldest daughter of the second master, Jia Zheng, Yuan Chun is loved in every possible way in the Rong Mansion. Except for the elder brother Jia Zhu, who is a compatriot of the same mother, no one can surpass her. But he is a bit lonely, and he promises to be outstanding in appearance and talent.

The daughter's family is precocious than the man's. Although the old lady and the second wife didn't say it clearly, Yuan Chun also vaguely understood that this trip to the Duke of Qi's mansion for a banquet meant to let the wives and grandma see her, so she didn't dare to be sloppy at all. The phoenix wears a peony crepe skirt, with pearls on the earlobes and beautiful jade hanging from the waist. The pendulous ponytail is decorated with small emerald green phoenix hairpins. The tassels on the mouth of the phoenix hang slightly, and a pearl the size of a little fingernail hangs just beside the ear. The dignified and quiet temperament adds a little playfulness, generous and bright without losing the liveliness of a girl.

The second wife, Mrs. Wang, chose this kind of clothes for her eldest daughter, hoping that Yuan Chun would become a blockbuster and overwhelm the crowd. Although Yuan Chun was a little worried about the taste of Chen Er, who was still in her boudoir, who knew her mother? Girls don't like to be pretty, but they still happily wear new clothes to the banquet.

In front of the old lady of the Chen family and the wives and grandmas, Yuan Chun also received countless compliments like when he was at home. A blush quietly appeared on his round face, which looked like his biological mother, but his brows and eyes were still very peaceful, and his expression could be considered indifferent. The demeanor of everyone is full of ten, and Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Wang are all approving in their hearts.

But when he got to the group of girls and saw the eldest girl from the Zhou family who was engaged to the big house Jia Hu surrounded by Wang's cousin Xifeng, most of Yuan Chun's joy dissipated.

Zhou Jie, the eldest girl of Zhou, wore a light pink embroidered brocade dress with hundreds of flowers today, covered with a colorless monofilament gold printed cage skirt, and the butterfly dancing pattern embroidered with gold thread on the light and transparent cage skirt was lifelike.The shadows of the two skirts overlap each other, and the breeze is like a person coming from a flower, and butterflies dance around the body.

Zhibi's Yuanchun wears a group of tribute satin specially sent by Aunt Wang's family, which looks like an imitation of Dongshi.

Look at Zhou Jie's bun on her head, she doesn't use hairpins, she just strings pink pearls and wraps her bun lightly, and uses jade fish as her feet, and the bun is decorated with red treasure stamens, which is elegant It's chic, and it's even more old-fashioned than the hair accessories on her head.

Yuan Chun grew up so big, and it was the first time that girls of the same age were compared to her in terms of dressing. she.

As a last resort, Yuan Chun had no choice but to bear with himself and went to see the ceremony. If the mess of the Rongguo Mansion was not counted, the relationship between Miss Zhou and Yuan Chun should be very close.

Zhou Jie was listening to Wang Xifeng's witty words without saying a word. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Yuan Chun approaching. She hurriedly got up and said hello with a smile. Generous and decent.

In addition, Zhou Jie was more gentle than Yuan Chun in the eyebrows. The two girls bowed to each other, and they looked like ladies. Others still felt that Zhou Jie was more amiable.

Zhou Jie was polite and courteous, while Yuan Chun maintained his dignity and would not say harsh words. After the courtesy, Yuan Chun took his cousin Wang Xifeng away with an excuse.

Knowing that Yuan Chun was going to interrogate Wang Xifeng behind her back, Zhou Jie was not annoyed, she waved her round fan calmly and went to talk to the second daughter of the Chen family, Ah Jiu.

Speaking of which, it was the second girl Chen's idea that no one paid attention to Jia Yuanchun when he came here.

Originally, because her aunt married into the Zhou family, and there was some festive relationship between the Zhou family and the second room of the Rongfu, Miss Chen didn't want to see Jia Yuanchun very much, but now when Jia Yuanchun came here, she was dressed in bright red again, and Miss Chen felt even worse For dislike.

It turned out that Second Miss Chen followed her biological father Chen Ruiwen in appearance. When the sisters get together, they are most afraid of colliding with other people's clothes, and they will be judged as "far worse than so-and-so".

After a long time, even if the girls who were friends with Miss Chen didn't think so, the maids and mothers who followed could tell a little bit, and they would report to their wives and grandmas when they went back. Gradually, girls from various families came to Duke Qi's mansion again For the banquet, she put a lot of thought into her clothes, especially avoiding the bright red color.

——Ajiu of the Chen family loves big red the most, and there is no one who doesn't know about the girl from the noble family in Jingzhong.

Jia Yuanchun's facial features are a hundred times better than Miss Chen's, and she is much more beautiful than Miss Chen in red clothes, but Miss Chen is the master today, she is annoyed, and no one will deliberately stick to Yuan Chun's side to hinder Chen Er The girl's eyes, so that when Yuanchun came, the first time I met all the girls, I didn't even have a recommendation.

Yuan Chun is not dull, she can also feel that girls from other families don't like to get close to her, but she is also used to arrogance, and she really can't do things like walking over with a smiling face and taking the initiative to flirt with others, so she has to pull Gossip with Wang Xifeng.

Today Wang Xifeng was wearing a light-yellow blouse and a bean-green long skirt, and she wanted to tell Yuan Chun not to wear red clothes to come to the Duke of Qi's mansion, but she felt it was too late, and she wanted to slap the second girl Chen and the eldest girl Zhou in the eyes. Unfavorable, so they just grind their teeth with Yuanchun on small things.

It can't be blamed on Wang Xifeng for not helping Yuanchun, she really can't protect herself.

Wang Xifeng's father, Wang Zisheng, had been dismissed from office a few years ago, and had to stay at home. Now that the Jia family's eldest brother and two brothers are both out of filial piety, Wang Zisheng sees a glimmer of hope for recovery.

He was about to move up and down, but he heard that this position was under the nose of Zhou Mu, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, on Wednesday. From now on, his fortune, wealth and official fortune will be in his hands. It turned into fear, and almost fell ill from the news.

But in the affairs of the court, he can do whatever Wang Zisheng says, if he refuses at this moment, maybe there is no hope in this life.

The power is charming, Wang Zisheng gritted his teeth, and was ready to take the blame, and prepared the big gift to visit Zhou's house.

The master on Wednesday has been behind closed doors so far.

Wang Zisheng really regrets that his guts are green. He poured too much yellow soup in the old year, and helped his younger sister, Mrs. Jia's second wife, Wang to do such things, so that he forged such a big enmity with the Zhou family. Now it is easy to tie up. If you don't understand, how can you let Wang Xifeng and Jia Yuanchun get closer.

This time, Wang Xifeng accompanied Mrs. Wang to the Duke of Qi’s mansion to celebrate her birthday in the name of the uncle of the ruling county. After memorizing those words, he refused to give up, and when the time came, he had to let his daughter board the car.

According to the relationship between relatives, it is natural for Wang Xifeng and Jia Yuanchun to talk together, but with this level of concern, Wang Xifeng really wholeheartedly hopes that Miss Chen will come out to host soon, and everyone will gather together to play, so as not to prevent her so embarrassing.

Miss Chen Er didn't keep the girls from other families waiting for too long. She went back to her yard and changed into blue clothes before coming out to meet the guests. The smile on her face was very decent, she didn't feel unhappy about the temporary change at all, maybe she left in a hurry , The panting sound was slightly heavier than usual when speaking.

"I'm the one who came late." The second girl, Chen Yingying, gave Jia Yuanchun a vague glance.

Zhou Jie returned to Beijing for a short period of time, although she and Miss Chen had met a few times, she was not familiar with her, so she just laughed and said it was okay with everyone, but the eldest girl of Duke Liu's family had played with Miss Chen since she was a child. The two of them talked about everything, and their love was not comparable to that of others, so they immediately refused to forgive each other.

"You sisters are all here waiting for the master's house. You are full of tea, you are better off, leave us here, and Babaer will go back and change clothes. I don't know what kind of fairy you are going to meet today."

Although he didn't mention his name, Yuan Chun's heart skipped a beat.

Second Miss Chen covered her mouth and smiled, and hurriedly apologized to everyone, naturally everyone turned sideways to avoid it.Seeing that no one was willing to accept the gift, even Miss Liu giggled and dragged the girl to hide, then she suggested with a smile: "Since none of them are willing to accept this gift, I have earned it. Today the garden is full of leaves and flowers, We sisters finally get together, so we naturally want to have fun. Let me be the host, let's compete to learn, if we lose, we will be punished, if we win, we will get our own prize, how about it?"

They are all twelve or thirteen-year-old girls. They were raised at home with gold and jade since they were young. It is inevitable that they will have the idea of ​​fighting for power when they get together.

For a while, there was a burst of sweet voices in the garden, but it was all people talking endlessly about the competition.

According to Yuan Chun's mind, she practiced playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she has the highest attainment in piano skills, and she was extremely looking forward to someone suggesting a piano competition, so that she could go along with the flow and show one or two, but after waiting for a long time, no one mentioned the piano word.

After all, the second girl Chen still decides the fighting poems, with flowers as the theme, and the rhymes are not limited.

Miss Liu refused again.

"Chen Ah Jiu has a biased heart. He was born in Chongyang, so he must have memorized chrysanthemum poems. Now he only replaces chrysanthemums with lotus flowers, and then turns autumn love into summer love. Isn't it possible to use it to scare us? ?”

Speaking of this, Miss Liu couldn't hold back her laughter, and pointed at Zhou Jie with a smile: "Look, this cousin is close, who doesn't know that girl Jie is always quick-witted? Anyway, I can't compare , now I have to see that my sister and sister took the number one spot in advance, and I don’t know if Chen Ajiu can give me a good ranking because her elder sister also calls me a younger sister anyway.”

The eldest daughter of the Chen family has already left the cabinet, and she married the uncle of the Liu family, the brother of the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

Master Zhou and Master Zhou are all confidantes today. After Zhou Jie returned to Beijing with her uncle’s family, she often received posts from everyone’s girls, and she went there a few times casually. Seeing, the second daughter of the Chen family is today's master, Miss Liu specially praised these two, everyone was not very satisfied, they all laughed and joked together.

Jia Yuanchun's words and deeds at home on weekdays are like stars holding the moon, when did he suffer such neglect?All the girls gathered around Miss Chen Er and Zhou Jie, even her cousin Wang Xifeng moved over, her silver teeth almost gnawed.

If it wasn't for the wife and grandma who sent someone to call the girls over soon, Yuan Chun would hardly be able to hold back her dignified and generous smile.
