[Red House] Flowers are good jade circles

When Daiyu heard them talking, she guessed that this time it might really be just a visit and nothing else.Feeling relieved, he pointed to the osmanthus tree in the distance to grind Jia Min, "Mother, I want to see the osmanthus."

"Go, bring agarwood and apricot fruit." Seeing her daughter's smiling face, Jia Min was also very happy.There is no rush to see each other, you have to slowly bring your daughter into this circle, let people know that the Lin family has a girl who is just at the right age, and only then will they receive invitations, interspersed with intentional or unintentional occasions, to appear calm Not on purpose.

Daiyu cheered, the century-old osmanthus tree had just turned yellow at this time, and before it was in full bloom, it smelled sweet fragrance with the wind.

"The Wen family's house has been in existence for hundreds of years. I heard that this osmanthus tree was planted by the first-generation family owner at that time." Xingguo Wen's family was the first time, but her news was one step ahead of others.

"It's really spectacular. I'm afraid I can't finish eating their sweet-scented osmanthus cake." Daiyu was just joking, but unexpectedly, she was stopped again.

"How can you only think about eating such an elegant thing?" A lady in a goose-yellow shirt with a golden floral skirt and a golden osmanthus wreath on her head that Jia Min scoffed at came from the tree. Then turned out.

Daiyu chuckled, "Sister is an elegant person, not like me." It was just a polite remark, and they all came to other people's houses as guests.

"That's right, we have different identities." The lady wearing the golden crown of osmanthus took a look at Daiyu's clothes. fat man.The Wen family is like this, and the people they come and go with must be the same.

Daiyu frowned, this person spoke so rudely, raised his eyebrows, Xingguo had already reported the person's name, Xia Jingui, the only daughter of Huangshang Xia's family.

It was her.

Daiyu twitched her brows, nodded and said, "It's true that it's not the same identity. Officials and businessmen are different. Miss Xia is still very self-aware. However, you don't need to belittle yourself. The Wen family is kind, and I don't think it will make you look bad."

After finishing talking, I am still interested in seeing osmanthus, so I left with agarwood and apricot fruit.

"You..." Xia Jingui was extremely angry, but the servant girl who followed quickly stopped the young lady.

"Don't worry, first ask who it belongs to. If the young lady wants to scold someone, she must scold to the point of pain."

Xia Jingui nodded slowly. Most of the officials who were willing to deal with the imperial merchants were poor.But how did she know, all she knew was that people did not eat as well as her, did not dress as well as her, and were often flattered.The earlier awe had worn off long ago, and I still felt superior to others.

Speaking of which, Xia Jingui was out of reach in the real social circle of the Lin family, and it was a coincidence that he returned to the Wen family.

"Go and find out, I want to see if their family has never taken offerings from our family." Xia Jingui was in a hurry. The family business is big and the money they have given away is also a lot. She doesn't believe that this family has never taken Xia Jingui home silver.Maybe the jewelry on her head was made with money from the Xia family.

The servant girl went to inquire about the person, and she followed Daiyu back to the Flower Banquet Hall. After another look, it turned out that it was the guest of the third grandma of the Wen family.Xia Jingui smiled contemptuously, the money that the third master ran into office was all paid by the Xia family, and the people who interacted with their family must not be important people.

She sat over and heard that the third young lady of the Wen family had a special hairpin on Kua Daiyu's head, not like the craftsmanship here.

Jia Min said proudly, "It's the craftsmen from Jiangnan, and their skills are indeed different."

"I think those master craftsmen are trying to save gold for others. Make a thin circle, say a word of skill, how much they have replaced, they really know how to live." Xia Jingui interjected, and even sat down.

Third Grandma Wen always disliked the young lady of the Xia family, she was arrogant and vulgar, she always took herself very seriously, and others were worthless in her eyes.But she is a married woman, and she doesn't need to get along with her on weekdays. It's just arranged during treats, so I can bear it.

But now, laughing at the guests she invited in public is no longer impolite, it's like making enemies for their Xia family.It's fine to make enemies for the Xia family, but don't drag the Wen family into it.

Third Grandma Wen's face darkened, and Daiyu had already spoken before her, "No, it's no match for the Xia Family of the Imperial Shang Dynasty. It's impossible to resist. If I resist, I'm afraid I'll melt the warehouse and put it on top of my head. That's good. Jiangnan Dingji's craftsmanship saves gold for others is also a correct solution, and they are as thin as cicada's wings when they enter the palace, I'm afraid they saved the emperor a lot of silver."

The craftsmanship of Dingji is known as the saying that there is one or two pieces of gold and one or two works, which means that the cost of craftsmanship is almost the same as the cost of materials for jewelry.If you are not a wealthy family, you may not be willing to invest in this kind of investment. Generally, local tyrants are more willing to save the cost of craftsmanship and put it on their heads to show their wealth.

Xia Jingui's face turned red in an instant, the maid had just inquired about the news, and saw that the young lady went in and offended someone, she really couldn't help it.Jumping around in a hurry, but dare not say anything.

Jia Min lightly slapped her daughter on the shoulder, and said angrily, "You said, you can arrange the royal family. Be careful, your elder sister knows it and ordered the mother in the palace to teach you the rules."

Third Grandma Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Xia Jingui with a half-smile, "I heard that the Rongguo Mansion is repairing a garden to welcome you, is it true?"

"Oh, I said just now that my daughter can make arrangements, and now you are added. For matters in the palace, just follow the order." Jia Min also laughed, and casually revealed a gold-plated multi-treasure bracelet, It is the most sought-after type of jewelry among the batch of jewelry made by Dingji this year.

Ordinary bracelets are all cast, whether they are inlaid with gemstones or engraved, there is no escape from this meaning.But this batch of bracelets is made of twisted gold threads that are as thin as hair, twisted into flower-shaped animal shapes like living things, and then set eyes or flower stamens with colored gemstones, and so on. .

I heard that the craftsmanship is extremely difficult, and the nobles with lower status in the palace can't get it. They have never been there, but this lady has one in her hand.

The lotus flowers that are closely intertwined have flowers and leaves, the complicated flowers and leaves are intertwined, and the stamens are polished smooth and bright gemstones of various colors.As far as this bracelet is concerned, no matter how expensive Xia Jingui is, she can't afford it, but this bracelet represents status, not something that can be bought with money.

Xia Jingui was speechless, Jia Min flicked off her sleeves, she has always been a low-key and restrained person, which Lin Ruhai appreciates.So, she's holding up just fine.But she doesn't mind being seen occasionally. Being low-key doesn't mean I'm inferior to you, and being restrained doesn't mean showing a smiling face when being treated rudely.

No matter how good-tempered Jia Min is, she won't tolerate someone with a different surname.

"Miss Xia, is Miss Seven of our family greeting you?" Third Grandma Wen kindly reminded, this silly child, hurry up and don't leave an eyesore.

"Yes, I have an appointment with Miss Seven." Xia Jingui restrained her arrogance rarely, stood up, and went to find Miss Seven who rescued her.

"I said Sister Xia, what are you doing to provoke them? They are the wife and eldest daughter of Mr. Lin from the household department. A virtuous concubine, she is Mrs. Lin's direct niece."

A series of names made Xia Jingui amazed, Master Lin of the Household Department, Rongguo Mansion, Concubine Xiande, each of them was a circle that Xia Jingui would never be able to squeeze into.

"I was careless." Xia Jingui drooped her head, which surprised Miss Seven, when Xia Jingui was too soft.But after thinking about it, I realized that there is no one in this world who is really unyielding, it's just that I haven't met them.Now when I encountered a hard corner, I naturally accepted it.

Xia Jingui felt uncomfortable, left the stage early, and threw dishes and bowls when he returned home, so there was no peace.When encountering such inferior people, she can only vent her anger on herself.

Both Jia Min and Dai Yu didn't take this episode to heart, and followed Jia Min to start the bustling journey of going out for guests.

Only went to the palace to make a formal decree, on the fifteenth day of the first month, Concubine Xu Xiande went home to visit her relatives.The entire Jinling was in an uproar, this kind of favor is really rare.

Rongguo's mansion is naturally decorated with lanterns and festoons, even the maids and mother-in-law have new clothes, Ningguo's mansion is honored.The other ten families of the four kings and eight princes also sent important gifts to each.All of a sudden, the flowers were blooming, and the fire was cooking oil, making the hot stove in the Rongguo Mansion even more prosperous.

At this time, Jia Min was calm and tried not to post it.Since Mrs. Wang was in the limelight, and Aunt Xue was by Mrs. Wang's side at this moment, she enjoyed all the flattery, and her face lit up three points.

Jia's mansion sent someone to post a post, Concubine Xiande went home to visit her relatives, wanted to see her sisters and brothers, and invited Jia Min's family to come to the house.

Jia Min refused at that time, saying that it was a short time for the mother to go home, and it was too late to see her sisters, so Daiyu didn't have to move forward.But Jia's mansion wrote back, saying that there was sister Daiyu in the message from the mother-in-law, and Jia Min could only hold back his anger and agree.

Lin Ruhai definitely won't go, he doesn't need to rely on a harem concubine to make friends, but he can't attribute himself to the status of a foreign relative, and it's too late to hide.Lin Jingyu stayed in the Guozijian for a good reason, and the emphasis was on her studies.

In the end, Jia Min could only take his daughter back, still complaining about Mrs. Wang, relying on her daughter's status to assign her to come, she was so angry that her liver hurt.

He held his daughter in one hand and confessed, "Be cautious in your words and deeds in front of your mother. If no one asks you to speak, don't speak."

"My daughter knows." Daiyu didn't know until she went. Not only her sister with a foreign surname, but also Shi Xiangyun, who hadn't been out for a long time, also came.

The feud between her and Shi Xiangyun is hard to say, but she knows it in her heart.Shi Xiangyun couldn't go out for a long time, and it was thanks to the Lin family that he kept sewing at home.She hated the mother and daughter deeply, on the surface they were kind and didn't care about her, and even gained a good name.Turn around and play tricks, making her indisputable.
