Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

The mother and daughter were talking and discussing while waiting for Mother Zhou to return.

Li Wanrou was thinking about it and she couldn't wait to get up, and she worried: "Mother, what if that village woman refuses to borrow? Where has she seen such a good thing before? Where can she let her go? "

The second wife said: "This is about your lifelong event. She is ashamed not to ask her to borrow two pieces of jewelry? Humph, if she doesn't give it, it would be too unkind! Don't worry, Mother Zhou can't borrow it, I Go personally!"

Li Wanrou then let go of her heart, and smiled happily, "Thank you, mother!"

When I heard that Mother Zhou was back, Li Wanrou couldn't wait to order her to come in, staring at her hand: "Where is the thing?"

Mother Zhou was taken aback, and she didn't care about saluting, she had to say: "The old slave didn't borrow anything back, the lady over there said--"

"What are you talking about!" Li Wanrou angrily turned to look at the second lady: "Mother, did you hear that? That village woman refused to borrow it!"

The second lady's face was heavy, and she said coldly: "Did you make it clear? Didn't I explain to you? How important this banquet is to Wanrou, her sister-in-law married well, is it not good for her Did you make it all clear? Let's talk about it, but borrowing, why is she so stingy?"

Li Wanrou also had her eyes shining, staring at Mother Zhou, almost staring a hole in her.

Mother Zhou trembled subconsciously, and hurriedly said, "Madam, Miss, and the third wife said that she also received an invitation from Miss Zhu's family, and she will go to the banquet the day after tomorrow, so she has to wear the jewelry herself— "

"what!"

"what did you say!"

The second wife, mother and daughter, yelled in unison, staring at each other.

"It's impossible!" Li Wanrou screamed: "She's nothing! A vulgar village woman from the country, what kind of status is Miss Zhu Liu, how could she invite her! You must have been cheated by her!"

The second wife glanced at her daughter, but her expression was a little uncertain.

Miss Zhu Liu invited her daughter, and then Lian Fangzhou?

Li Wanrou was still trying to question Mother Zhou. The second lady sighed and stopped her softly, and said softly: "Well, Wanrou, don't blame Mother Zhou! This kind of thing can't deceive people, even if she is stupid. I don't think I will lie like this!"

"Mother! Why are you helping her too!" Li Wanrou stamped her foot with anger.

"How can my mother help her?" The second lady took her daughter to sit down with pity, and said to Mother Zhou: "You go out first!"

Mother Zhou was relieved and hurriedly agreed to quit.

The second lady's eyes flickered, and she sneered: "Wanrou, do you remember those rumors that you heard a few years ago?"

"Rumor? What is it?" Li Wanrou didn't expect her mother to make such an inexplicable sentence. After being astonished, she became a little angry.

At the moment, she only cares about the banquet she is going to attend. What rumors are not rumors, what to do with her?

The second lady sighed softly and said, "You! What else? Isn't it just the rumor between Miss Zhu Family Six and your third brother?"

Li Wanrou was stunned, and she suddenly realized: "This is what you are talking about! Oh, mother! When is it, what are you talking about!"

"You stupid girl!" The second lady sighed: "If you think about it carefully, why did Miss Zhu Liu suddenly invite you to a banquet and invite Lian Fangzhou? Back then, she admired your third brother with all her heart and looked forward to marrying him. of!"

"But the third brother married Lian Fangzhou!" Li Wanrou's eyes brightened, and she finally understood something.

but--

"But mother told me what does this have to do with me? Mother, I don't have any brilliant jewelry, what can I do the day after tomorrow! I don't want to be underestimated!" Li Wanrou said in annoyance.

No matter how much the second wife, Rao, feels sorry for her daughter, she has to admit her daughter's big nerves, so she has to say patiently: "Think about it, a village woman in Lian Fangzhou, but married your third brother, how can you call Miss Zhu Liu willing? If your guess is correct, Miss Zhu Liu invites you to go, she must be to make friends with you, through you, through our family, in front of your third brother to talk more about her, and Lian Fangzhou, she will definitely try to call Lian Fangzhou is embarrassed!"

Li Wanrou thought for a while, clapped her hands and smiled: "Yes, it must be so! Otherwise, how could Miss Zhu Liu invite people like Lian Fangzhou to go!"

The second wife gave a "Yeah" and lifted her spirits, saying: "So Miss Zhu Liu will definitely be close to you, Wanrou, you must seize the opportunity to make good friends with Miss Zhu Liu! If she embarrassed Fangzhou, remember Stand far away, don't talk too much to help her, you know?"

The second wife was obviously too tall to look at Li Wanrou.

Li Wanrou rolled her eyes when she heard Bi, and said, "Mother, what are you talking about! How could I speak for her? I wish she was embarrassed! Humph, that country village woman, how I really look at it is not pleasing! Wait for her to become The laughing stock in the whole capital, see if the third brother wants her!"

The second wife smiled with relief: "If your third brother doesn't want her, then Miss Zhu Liu is very likely to be your sister-in-law, and then—"

"Mother, don't worry, I will be close to her!" Li Wanrou's eyes lit up and she was overjoyed.

The mother and daughter smiled at each other, quite contented.

"But, mother, what jewellery will I wear the day after tomorrow! I don't have any good jewellery that can hold it down!" Li Wanrou became distressed again.

The second lady gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, let's buy it now!"

Only then did Li Wanrou rejoice, and she hugged the second lady's arm and cuddled against her and said coquettishly: "You still love me the most!

It was the day of the banquet in a blink of an eye. After breakfast, Lian Fangzhou changed clothes and combed his hair to go out.

She has never been very particular about these things, and besides, there is no good feast. Today, she may not know what will happen, and there is no need to show the limelight.

Only a lilac color embroidered primrose four gentlemen water blue bamboo leaf bordered satin face placket and narrow sleeves, a white collared shirt with white eyebrows and a loose pleated skirt.

Wearing the fallen widows, except for the eight-treasure-dotted aster flower studded with silver tassels, there is no outstanding hairpin ring, and the pair of mutton-fat white jade bracelets on the wrists.

The grace is elegant, fresh but not petty.It looks peaceful and calm, does not win eyes, and does not fall into identity.

Li Fu didn't need to go to court today, nor did he go to Yamen, so he circled Lian Fangzhou all morning.

Seeing that she changed her clothes and came out, she said: "I'll take you there! Or, just go in and say hello, then wait until the banquet is boring, what do you do? If you want to appreciate the chrysanthemum, I will take you to the protection of the country Go to the temple, I heard there are a few very good chrysanthemums there!"

Lian Fangzhou knew he was worried about himself, for fear that he would be tricked by Zhu Yuying.

However, what should come will always come.
