Chapter 49 Ning's gift 1
In the garden, the seventh aunt Ning was sitting on the beauty's couch eating the crystal pear cut by the maid. The white pear was cut into small pieces by the maid and put in a white porcelain plate. Ning stretched out her hand and picked up a wooden two pointed hairpin-like thing with a slender jade finger, gently picked a piece and put it in her mouth.
Under the beauty's couch, a maid in cyan clothes was beating Ning's legs. Seeing Ning's happy face, she tentatively said, "Auntie, I went to the raccoon room to send her aunt's clothes today. Unexpectedly, she was ridiculed by the jade girl in Meifang Garden."
"Oh?" Ning frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
It was Dai Yue, the maid who quarreled with the jade in the raccoon room. When asked by the Ning family, Dai Yue hurriedly said, "This morning, the maidservant went to the raccoon room to deliver her aunt's clothes as usual. She happened to meet the jade girl and saw that the maidservant was also there. The girl actually said a lot of yin and yang. They are all talking about your bad.
Dai Yue said and beat Ning's leg. Ning listened and said, "Go on, what did you say?" Dai Yue blinked her eyes and curled her lips, and her face was full of contempt: "What else can it be? It's just because the master rested in the fourth aunt's room last night, and his eyelids were raised above his head, saying that you don't deserve to argue with the fourth aunt at all, and that Miss San is also popular now, not as good as you and Miss Four..."
Ning's hand holding the pear paused and said, "Say!"
Dai Yue seemed to be embarrassed for a moment, but still said, "It's not as good as you and the fourth lady. A bitch is a bitch, and he can't get the favor of the master."
"How can that be!" Hearing this, Ning was furious in an instant. His pretty face turned white. With a strong wave of his hand, he swept the fruit plate in front of him to the ground and smashed it.
A group of maids hurriedly knelt down. Ning shrank her legs and sat on the couch and said to the girl kneeling down, "Get out of here."
The girls hurried out, but Dai Yue stayed and took a fan to Ning's fan and said, "Auntie, don't be angry. The one in Meifang Garden can't compare with your appearance."
Ning likes to listen to compliments, but when Dai Yue said this, his mood stabilized a lot.
Yes, she is younger than that woman. How can she have her own beauty? The master went to her place just for a moment of freshness.
"That's all. Don't be angry with such a villain." Ning waved his hand and said to Dai Yue, "Let the girl clean up here."
With that, he stood up and walked to the dressing table. The person in the mirror smiled with a pink face and was infinitely coquettish. Ning was very satisfied and said to Dai Yue, "Come and dress me up."
Dai Yue walked over and picked up the jewel-inlaid ivory comb to take care of the green silk for Ning. After a while, a gorgeous bun was combed. Ning looked left and right, took the red gold tassel and put it on his head. While looking carefully, he asked, "I'm going to Yong'an Hall to see the master later. The chicken soup I asked you can be stewed. ? "
Dai Yue hurriedly replied, "I got up early and ordered the kitchen to stew it. Now it's warm in the pot. If my aunt wants it now, I'm going to serve it and bring it to you."
Ning put on the hairpin, stood up and said, "Then go quickly. The master likes chicken soup the most. In the past, I sent it away, and the master was very happy."
Dai Yue took the order, and Ning carefully described her makeup in front of the mirror. She didn't stand up until there were no flaws. Dai Yue had already put chicken soup in the food box. Ning went over and looked at it and said, "Come with me."
Dai Yue is the girl who Ning family served with her when she was in the brothel. She is also a little beautiful. Ning was once a servant in the brothel and had a good talk. At that time, Xia Chuanyuan was also attracted by Ning's talent and married back to be an aunt. In the north, many court officials would have one or two from the brothel. It is not surprising that the chosen aunt or concubine is like this.
Dai Yue is also a girl who came out of the brothel. Although she has not really been a brothel girl, she has been trained many skills to attract men since she was a child. In addition, she is deeply influenced by her. Of course, she should not be underestimated. Therefore, although Ning brought her to the house, she never took her to Xia Chuanyuan.
"Yes!" When Dai Yue heard this, she was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly and agreed. Although her face was trying to hide it, it still exposed the happiness in her heart at the corners of her eyes. Ning Shi glanced at Dai Yue, who bowed her head and was so shy, and there was a quarrel in her heart.
I come from a humble background and don't have a son. I can only hold the master. This is a young leather bag, but my face will eventually grow old. On that day, what else can I attract the master? You'er is a daughter and a concubine. If I can get a good marriage, I can also borrow some light, but it can be seen as Today, there is nothing good about it. However, Xia Mengning, when Ning remembered the way Xia Mengning spoke to her a few days ago, she was furious. At least she was older than her. How could she make her ridicul?
However, the girl has been doing well recently. She has been in the limelight in the house, and she is also ambiguous with the son of the King of Dingxi. Ning thought for a moment, she is also a common girl. Why didn't you choose my Youer? In terms of talent and beauty, You'er is not inferior to her.
Now the wife of Meifangyuan has also come to compete for favor. If she still fights alone like this, I'm afraid that she will be eaten meat and drinking blood, and there will be no bones and dregs left. No! In the past, I tried my best in the brothel to get Xia Chuanyuan's idea, that is, I had already inquired about Xia Chuanyuan's identity, so I made a little trick. I stood out from so many clean people in public and was received as an aunt by the Prime Minister's mansion. Unfortunately, now, the competitors I faced are no longer those who have no origin. The girl in the brothel is a group of powerful old goblins.
Sitting on the embroidered stool by the table, Ning's heart can be said to be full of turns. After thinking about it, if she wants to increase the weight of competition for favor, she has to introduce Dai Yue to the master. With her appearance and scheming, it is not difficult to win the master's favor. In this way, the master can also come to the garden more, and he will have more opportunities to meet the master. .
Thinking of this, although Ning had a ten thousand unwillingness in her heart, she still said to Dai Yue, "Go to see the master, you can also pick out the bright clothes. Don't be disgraced all day long."
Dai Yue didn't expect Ning Shi to say such a thing. The expression on her face was surprised and happy. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed twice and said, "Thank you, aunt, thank you."
Ning gave the girl around him a look, "Take my water-sleeved Luo shirt skirt to Dai Yue."
Dai Yue and the girl walked into the inner room. After a while, Dai Yue changed her clothes. The water-red skirt cleverly set off the woman's beautiful figure, wearing a long woven coat of the same color, which made her more beautiful as a flower.
"It's really a beautiful embryo. Dai Yue, with your beauty, it's wronged to be a little girl beside your aunt." Ning looked at the beautiful moon like a flower, and her heart was sour and astringent, and she couldn't help saying sarcasm.
Dai Yue just changed into new clothes. Looking at the envious look of the girl next to her, she already knew how beautiful she was. She couldn't help but be slightly complacent. Her appearance was not even as good as the seventh aunt. Now after listening to Ning's sarcasm, she couldn't help shivering in her heart. Ning was also from a brothel. She is only jealous and vicious. She is willing to introduce herself in front of the master, which must also be forced. If she hadn't deliberately said such a thing today to stimulate her, how could she think that the fourth aunt was also competing for favor, and how could she be willing to introduce herself to the master?
Thinking of this, Dai Yue immediately looked loyal and knelt on the ground and said, "My aunt saw that the maidservant showed me the way. I dared not forget my aunt's great kindness. No matter how glorious the maidservant is, she is still the maidservant beside my aunt, not to mention that my aunt is naturally beautiful and graceful. It's just the quality of willows, the light of fireflies, how can it be compared with my aunt?
Ning Shi felt much more comfortable after saying such words, and it is not good to blame Dai Yue too much at present. After all, she is still counting on her to attract the master's heart.
Thinking about it, Ning helped Dai Yue up with a smile. "You girl, you often kneel down and let others see me and think I'm a man-eating monster. Come on, I have some jewelry here. You can wear it."
She pulled Dai Yue to the dressing table. Ning pressed her on the embroidery stool and stood behind her and looked at the face in the mirror. She had to say that she was really old, but so what? Even if she was old and yellow, she would fight for the glory of the rest of her life.
"Look, you really have a handsome face." Ning ordered the girl beside him to dress up for Dai Yue and draw her makeup. Finally, she took out a jasper hairpin embedded with begonia flowers from the box, obliquely inserted it on Dai Yue's bun, took three-color pearl earrings, and gave Dai Yue a pair of excellent white jade bracelets.
With such a dress, Dai Yue seemed to be a different person. Ning looked carefully and said with a smile, "Sure enough, people rely on clothes and gold. Such a dress is like a fairy coming down to earth."
Dai Yue was about to kneel down again and was helped by the Ning family. Ning said anly, "Don't kneel easily. In the future, we will be sisters."
As soon as Dai Yue heard this, she immediately shook her head, "No, how can I be with my aunt and sisters?"
After hearing this, Ning's original self-preparation was much less, and she just asked so tentatively. Even if Dai Yue was liked by the master, she could only lift the girl through the room and say it bluntly, which was no different from the slave.
"Well, since you insist on doing this, I can't force others. It's getting late. Let's go."
After Ning finished speaking, he walked in front of him. Dai Yue hurriedly took the food box and followed him in the direction of Yong'an Hall.
