Chapter 25 Princess Yinghua

"Well, don't toss around. It's not that I want to see each other. Hurry up and see if the two women have come." Ling stopped Lianxiang from inserting a hairpin on her head and impatiently urged her to go out. Today is the day when Princess Yinghua visits the door, and the most important thing is to dress up Wanhua. Remember, tell the five ladies to take goodcare of it.

As soon as Lianxiang went out, she met Li Xunzhuo, who had folded back, and hurriedly stopped to walk. Ling heard the sound outside the door and came out curiously.

"Master, why are you back?" Ling looked at Li Xunzhuo puzzledly.

"Master Xu has something to do and won't come. I'll come back when I have nothing to do." Li Xunzhuo looked at Ling's dress and said, "Are you going out? Or are there guests coming?"

"I didn't tell you that the Duke's wife handed over a post and said that she would come to see San Niang with the princess." Ling complained in his heart that Li Xunzhuo went back to Huansiyuan for the night in the past two days and didn't care about Xiyuan at all. I asked Lianxiang to urge the two girls to come quickly. In case they come early, they will be neglected.

Li Xunzhuo nodded. Lianxiang was about to leave, but he heard him say, "By the way, call Qi Niang."

"Why?" Ling screamed.

Li Xunzhuo gave her a light look: "Since all the five women have been called, there are many seven women, and they are about the same age." Lianxiang looked at the Ling family hesitantly and had to take the order to leave. Li Xunzhuo looked at Ling with a reluctant face, "Since you have called Qi Niang to have dinner together, you should take her with you when you go out to see guests. All three are daughters. You can't favor each other."

"Since you said you can't favor each other, why do you buy so many things for Qi Niang in private? Do you think I don't know?" Ling turned around and looked straight at him.

"That's not because you are close to Sanniang. When did you think of Qi Niang?" Li Xunzhuo said.

"What about the five women?" Ling immediately fought back.

Li Xunzhuo is most annoying for Ling to talk about Shaohua. After all, this is the thorn in his heart. Shaohua is no better than Jinhua. When she asks her what she wants, she always says that as long as he gets along well with Ling. He likes such a sensible daughter in his heart, but Ling always doesn't cooperate. You talked about Wu Niang again. When did I miss Wu Niang?

Ling was about to speak, and the girls' laughter planned her words.

"Why is Dad here?" Wanhua is wearing a water-blue background floral embroidered collar light blue pair of clothes, lined with an ink-colored collar ivory white middle coat, and a frost-blue pleated skirt. The long black and soft hair coiled into a fragrant bun near the clouds, with two gold-inlaid jade hairpins diagonally on one side, and a pair of mutton fat white jade bracelets in the hand, transparent and crystal. She snuggled over and smiled charmingly. Dad, do you look good in me?"

Li Xunzhuo softened the expression on his face, "You have covered Wu Niang's beauty." Li Xunzhuo turned his eyes to Shaohua behind Wanhua, the dress of the same color as Wanhua, but not as her exquisite embroidery roll edge, and the clean and elegant long skirt decorated Shaohua like water hibiscus.

Wanhua immediately lit up his eyes, "It's Wu Niang who can't find good-looking jewelry. If you want me to say that Qi Niang's set of jewelry with Nanzhu is just right with Wu Niang's clothes." Wanhua slightly changed Li Xunzhuo's face. Shaohua sighed, "Dad, don't listen to the third sister's nonsense. Today is a good day for the third sister. How can I steal the third sister's limelight?"

Shaohua felt helpless about Wanhua's habit of comparing her with Jinhua. Anyway, everything is against the enemy, which is our victory.

"Dad, mother, daughter is late." While talking, Jinhua came slowly, but her apricot yellow dress made Ling's face suddenly black.

"What are you doing in such a fancy dress? Go back and change it!" Ling said unhappily.

As soon as Jinhua heard that there were guests coming, he immediately took out his most beautiful clothes. He never thought that Wanhua Shaohua was elegant, but Wanhua was better than the exquisiteness of the jewelry and the water. He came over happily, but he didn't expect to meet Ling's stinky face as soon as he entered the door.

"Dad..." Jinhua bit his lips and looked at Li Xunzhuo aggrievedly.

"Qi Niang is young and festive in this color. What are you doing?" Li Xunzhuo scolded Ling. Ling stared angrily and before he could refute it, the maid of the outer court hurriedly came to report: "The second master, the second lady, the Duke and Princess Yinghua are here."

Ling's heart jumped, stared at Jinhua anly, and shook his hand and left.

Li Xunzhuo also felt that it was boring to sit for a long time and went out with him, leaving three girls looking at each other in con's face.

"Qiniang, you did it on purpose, didn't you?" Wanhua saw that she was bright and itchy with anger.

Today was the day when Princess Yinghua came to visit her. Knowing that Princess Yinghua likes Suya, she specially chose this dress. First, to hide Shaohua, he is also planning to take this opportunity to bring Shaohua out to meet guests. In two years, Shaohua will be in the town, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to find a good man in the future. Shaohua also knew this, so he deliberately didn't dress up to avoid robing Wanhua's limelight.

"How come, the third sister wronged me." Jinhua blinked aggrievedly. She really didn't know what guest was coming, but she heard that Ling was going to take her to meet the guests. She must have a good identity, so she chose this dress. Is the third sister afraid of being robbed of the scenery by me, or is this guest coming to see the third sister?

"You..." Wanhua's face changed slightly, and Jinhua immediately became clear.

Lianxiang's arrival stopped a fight in time. Shaohua came forward and took Wanhua's hand and whispered, "Third sister, don't fight with her. The princess is here." Hearing Shaohua's words, Wan Hua barely pulled the corners of his mouth and strode forward.

Ling was chatting with the Duke's wife and Princess Yinghua. When she saw the three girls coming, she quickly asked them to salute.

After the three girls saluted the Duke's wife and Princess Yinghua in order, they obediently stood behind the Ling family. The lady of the Duke looked at the three girls with a kind face and said to Ling with a smile, "It is said that Mrs. Li Ge is so blessed that she raised three flower-like women. Now it's true at a glance. These three ladies have seen a lot, but I didn't expect the two little ladies to be so exquisite.

"The old lady is polite. They are all just three stupid maids." When Ling heard the praise from the wife of the vassal, she immediately smiled.

"The second lady is polite. Who doesn't know that the third lady is dignified, smart and sensible, and has done a good job. It's a great blessing for anyone to marry. The wife of the Duke of Fan said and took a special look at her niece, Princess Yinghua.

Princess Yinghua is a woman of nearly 40 years old, but because of her good maintenance, she looks five or six years younger than her real age. A ginger-yellow embroidered satin with lotus pattern is lined with a red gold satin camel horse skirt. The clothes are neat and elegant. Looking at Wanhua's eyes were also a little more intimate. Seeing that she was obedient and polite, he nodded with satisfaction. Everyone who knows Princess Yinghua knows that she likes to dress brightly, but she doesn't like others to pass her. Shaohua's eyes were also gentle and kind, but when he saw Jinhua, he frowned slightly, but smiled and said nothing.

"What is the ranking of these two girls?" The wife of the vassal saw too many young women and was not too picky about the three girls.

"This is Wu Niang, 13 this year. My father loved her and took her to Pu'an until a few days ago. Ling enthusiastically pushed Shaohua out and glanced at Jinhua again: "That's Qi Niang, Aunt Su."

"They are all beautiful women like flowers." The madam of the vassal nodded and smiled, "What kind of craft do you know?"

As soon as she heard the wife of the vassal state inquired, Ling was immediately happy. If this fell in her heart, even if she didn't need to speak in the future, the Duke's wife would help. But before Shaohua could speak, Jinhua couldn't wait to step forward and take out the embroidery he had prepared earlier.

"Please have a look. This is the veil I just embroidered for my mother." Jinhua handed a rich handkerchief to the Duke of the Fan. She took it, blinked her eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled at Ling, "I said that the second lady is blessed. Look at how filial the seventh lady is. This skill is much better than that of my wife."

"If the old lady doesn't dislike it, I can embroider one for the old lady." Jinhua said eagerly.

"Qi Niang, don't be presumptuous! Mrs. Fan said politely. I don't know how many times the craftsmanship of the little wife of the Fan family is better than you. Don't retreat quickly. Ling is very angry with Jinhua's seizing the limelight.

The lady of the vassal didn't care, but just smiled and looked at Shaohua, "What will Wu Niang do?"

In the eager attention of Ling and Wanhua, she said with a smile, "I've been practicing Pipa recently." The wife of the Duke of Fan seemed to be a little surprised, "Can you make a pipa?" Most of the little women next to her are learning to play the piano kites, which is rare. Even Princess Yinghua has cast her eyes on it.

"What music can you play?" Princess Yinghua's voice was gentle, like a girl's voice.

"Mr. taught me a few songs, but I'm not familiar with them." Today is not the day for her to steal the limelight. It's better to treat her as a mural, so Shaohua answered in a low-key manner.

Princess Yinghua said "Oh" and looked slightly disappointed, but she thought that her future daughter-in-law was not Shaohua, and she was quickly relieved. The wife of the vassal answered with a smile, "When it comes to the lute, I will do it until the two wives are good at playing the lute. One is General Dingxi's wife and the other is Mrs. Xing Yongbo. Unfortunately, the two of them failed to play a song together, and they don't know its height.

Hearing this, Ling asked curiously, "That day, I seemed to see Mrs. Xingyong also go to the Duke's Mansion. Did you ask the old lady to help the little lady's palm?" After walking through the scene, Ling asked the three girls to retreat.

"No, her little wife is the same age as her fifth mother. Contrary to you, she refused to marry for Lang Jun. Hearing the sigh of the lady of the vassal, Shaohua, who dared to step out of the door, suddenly stopped and couldn't help hiding at the door to steal the sound. I don't know how many times she has come. Every time she is polite, I can't say anything. Since people don't like it, I can't force it.

Ling immediately came to his spirits when he heard the gossip, "Why, Mrs. Xingyong's vision is so high?" Which lady is this time?

"Don't blame her for her high vision. Which of the four gentlemen of Shengjing is not the Ruyi Langjun who is the tip of the women's heart. It's your big man. Nowadays, people are all inquire. If Erlang hadn't been in Beijing, I'm afraid many people would have come to inquire. The wife of the vassal state said. It's just that I don't know what kind of woman Mrs. Xingyong's favorite is. I don't know ten or twenty people who come to inquire about me. I also picked several for her, but she shook her head.

"I heard that the matter of Yan Jialangjun has been decided by the palace, and it may be Princess Shang." Princess Yinghua said coldly.

"This is also possible, but Mrs. Xingyong didn't leak any information, and I can't help it." The wife of the vassal said angrily that in fact, she wanted to help Yan Kaizhi promote a good thing. The Langjun is elegant and has an extraordinary temperament, which makes people want to find a good marriage for him at a glance.

Yan Kaizhi wants to be a princess?!

Shaohua's brain is a little messy, which is impossible.

However, listening to the tone of Mrs. Fan, Mrs. Xing Yongbo has repeatedly rejected other people's kindness. It should have been selected. So, does she have no chance at all?
