Chapter 39 39. Diligence

Shen ordered the maids to line up all the clothes and jewelry they had brought, selecting from left to right and comparing them.

 Suddenly I brought over an azure snow satin coat and skirt, but I felt that the color was more elegant. Another gauze skirt with gold embroidery and white butterflies and flowers was more suitable, but I had a headache as to what jewelry to match it with.

“Han’er, do you think this is good?”

  The Bai Sihan who was asked was currently leaning on the soft pillow of the bed.

  Not to mention being woken up by her mother early in the morning, she didn't even have time to wash up.

With a face like a peach blossom and skin as good as snow, she is an iconic beauty. Unfortunately, those charming fox eyes are listless and sleepy at the moment.

She gathered up the lamb blanket around her body, frowned slightly, and said slightly angrily to Shen who was wearing gold and silver next to her.

"Mom, it would be too anxious to choose these so early in the morning. Anyway, there are two days left for the Wei family's banquet, so we can just choose in the afternoon. The weather in Dongdu is too cold, and my daughter didn't even sleep well last night. We are still comfortable in Qiongzhou, there are still green trees outside at this time of year, look at these dry branches, you can’t even look at them.”

"Look at what you said. You only see the desolation outside, but you don't know the bustle inside. If you don't prepare in advance, it will be a big deal if you are compared with others. Just watch, wait until you go there When you come back from the banquet, mother will have to be more alert to take care of you. I am afraid that you will not be willing to go back to Qiongzhou by then."

At Mrs. Bai's birthday party, although there were also young masters and young ladies, most of them came with the elders of the family, so they were very restrained.

Nowadays, most of the people invited to the Wei family's banquet are young ladies and young masters from aristocratic families. Young people are lively together, so naturally they have to dress up more carefully.

Bai Sihan heard this too much and became impatient.

However, the other party is my mother, so it’s hard to say anything.

“Mom, if you compare everything with me, won’t your daughter suffer a loss?”

"Hahahaha, yes, yes, my daughter is so beautiful, even if she enters the palace and becomes a noble concubine, she will do it."

Bai Sihan rolled her eyes and was too lazy to say anything more.

On the other hand, Mrs. Shen next to her couldn't help but frowned after looking at the items in the jewelry box.

“Nothing good can be made in Qiongzhou, and this jewelry is incomparable to what the ladies in Dongdu City are used to wearing.”

I picked up a wishful gold hairpin with disgust. It looked like a good thing before, but now that I have seen many emerald and tourmaline ones, it seems a bit vulgar.

Looking back at Miss Wei's luxurious style, even if it can't compare with her, it can't be much inferior. Otherwise, how could the limelight still fall on my daughter.

Just as I was thinking about what to do, I heard that Princess Wen Yi’s mother Qian was here.

   Mother and daughter both saw suspicion in each other's eyes, and after a little tidying up their appearance, they asked Mother Qian to come in.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw clothes and jewelry piled on the couch. Qian's mother did not show any sarcasm, but followed the rules and greeted the two of them without looking away.

 “Greetings to the third lady and the second lady.”

“Well, get up, mom is here, but what are the princess’ orders?”

 Wen Yi's status can be ignored in front of the rest of the Bai family, but Shen didn't dare to entrust her with it, so she still called her the princess' empress.

"Our princess said that the second young lady has not given gifts to elders since she entered the house. This is not a sign of negligence, but the old shopkeeper of Zhenbaozhai had something to do at home a few days ago, so he delayed it. Now, as soon as he opened the door, he handed over the jewelry that had been prepared. It was sent over, so the princess asked the old slave to send it over quickly, and the second lady may like it after taking a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, he motioned to the girls at the back to come forward and open four palm-sized jewelry boxes.

 For a moment, everyone in the room took a breath. There is a red gold necklace, a white jade hairpin inlaid with red coral, a sapphire blue bat flower hairpin, and a begonia-shaped tourmaline jade hairpin.

Everything is exquisitely carved and valuable, making Shen's eyes almost fall out.

 “Are these for Han’er?” He was a little stumbling when he spoke.

Mother Qian bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Exactly, I hope the third lady and the second lady don't dislike it."

"No, no, no, Dongqing, please accept it for the young lady. Thank you very much for the princess's love. I will say that in this house, the princess is the best. She has a bodhisattva heart and her status is there. Humph, the big room That one can’t even compare to the princess!”

 In what he said, he was extremely disgusted with the way his eldest aunt Lin acted, and he almost said outright that she worshiped the superior and ignored the inferior, and picked the good ones.

Mother Qian was disdainful, but she didn’t show it at all on her face.

She hated this kind of people the most in her life. They were like flies chasing odors. They pounced on them when they saw an advantage, even losing face.

She couldn't bear to listen to the eldest sister-in-law who was making irresponsible remarks and stirring up dissension, so she suppressed the discomfort in her heart and spoke.

"As soon as the things were delivered, the old slave went back first, and the princess couldn't be without anyone."

 “Okay, it’s easy for Mom Qian to leave. We won’t keep any more.”

Shen's smile at this moment was all from the bottom of her heart. She came to whatever she thought of. The things sent by the princess really saved their worries, so her expression towards Qian's mother was a little more sincere.

After the people left, Mrs. Shen showed a greedy look, "Han'er, have you seen it? The princess likes you so much. It seems that she is going to marry into Prince Kang's Mansion. Prince Kang's Mansion will definitely come to this banquet. People, just pick the one you like."

With what he said so confidently, the children and grandchildren of Prince Kang's family became cabbages in the market, left to the mother and daughter to pick and choose.

 What a shameless statement!

"Mother..." Bai Sihan shouted coquettishly, her face rosy and she seemed a little shy.

 But Mrs. Shen felt even more proud when he saw her like this.

In the east cross courtyard, Bai Siruo was practicing pot throwing in the courtyard with great concentration. When he saw Qian’s mother coming back, he immediately put down the arrow cluster in his hand and asked a little excitedly.

 “Have they accepted the things?”

“After accepting it, the third lady laughed so hard that she couldn’t even close her mouth.”

Bai Siruo raised her eyebrows. She knew that with their mother and daughter being pushy, it would be strange to be upset when the jewelry got broken. She would not bear the pain and give up the jewelry she had ordered earlier at Zhenbaozhai. and sent it over.

 Thinking this in my heart, my face was filled with joy.

On the other hand, Qian's mother next to her was a little confused, "Miss, you have always disliked the second young lady, why did you give her so many good jewelry this time?"

“Didn’t my mother say that the Bai family is both prosperous and devastated? If you want to attend the Wei family’s banquet and don’t order anything honorable, it will also be a loss to the Bai family, right?”

Mother Qian nodded, that’s what she said, but she didn’t believe it.
