The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 43. A nest of snakes and rats
The faces of Xia Yan and Jiang Susu changed slightly at the same time, and the husbands had already quietly talked about them: “What kind of mountain village girl, I think this attitude seems to come out of the palace.”
“That is, looking at the same as Miss Jiang Er, how can it be so bad.”
“The appearance is also good, and it’s a bit brighter than the second lady.”
For the first time, the focus of everyone has never been on Jiang Susu alone. Jiang Ruan still walked from the front without squinting, his expression was not fluctuating, with a smile on his face, as if he had not come to Shen Mansion for the first time. Such calmness and calmness teaches those who originally wanted to watch the excitement can’t help but admire. The round-faced woman had already turned dark, on the contrary, the lady with high cheekbones nodded repeatedly.
The ensuing Shen Mingzhen was already furious, and gave Jiang Ruan a vicious look, then walked over to hold Jiang Susu’s hand, and walked into the women’s seat without looking at Jiang Ruan again.
Xia Yan smiled a little earlier, as if he hadn’t seen it, and laughed with Madam Shen and walked into the seat to sit down. Although Jiang Li is arrogant, she also has good friends among the ladies. Xu deliberately isolates Jiang Ruan, so she also pulls away Jiang Dan, who he doesn’t pay much attention to. Regardless of whether it was intentional or unintentional, Jiang Ruan was left alone by the side of the table, not knowing how to sit down.
Although the ladies and ladies were surprised by Jiang Ruan’s appearance and manners, all the guests present were familiar with Mrs. Shen, and naturally they wanted to maintain friendship with Jiang’s Mansion. Jiang’s wife is Xia Yan instead of Zhao Mei, and anyone who knows will not take the initiative to break the siege with Jiang Ruan. What’s more, Jiang Ruan’s appearance is too prosperous, and the lady sitting with her is afraid of being robbed of the limelight. For a time, there was only one lonely family member left.
Standing behind Jiang Ruan, Dewdrop and Forsythia were both a little dull. Thinking of coming to Shen Mansion this time as a visitor, it would be an unreasonable embarrassment.
But at this moment, a clear female voice heard from the table: “Miss Jiang, sit here.”
A cardamom girl stood up in the women’s seat. This girl was wearing a blue and white cotton-padded jacket, her complexion was slightly darker, but her face was very beautiful, with a hint of heroism between her eyebrows. This young girl also knew Jiang Ruan from the last generation, named Lin Zixiang, and is the eldest daughter of Lin Taishi today. He is an extremely righteous person. In the previous life, Lin Zixiang married the third prince as a side concubine. Although Lin Taishi had little power in the court, he had a decisive position. Lin Zixiang was not favored after marrying the third prince. Lin Taishi was the emperor. After dismissing the official position, the life was extremely depressed. The three princes had human faces and beasts, and there were groups of concubines in the mansion. The children in Lin Zixiang’s stomach were killed by one of the three princes’ favorite concubines. The three princes maintained their favorite concubine, and Lin Zixiang took it if he could not bear the humiliation. The knife and the concubine died together.
The woman in the palace in the previous life treated it as a joke. Jiang Ruan felt embarrassed at Lin Zixiang, but such a fierce woman ended up in a tragic end. After death, she was even used to talk about it, which is really unfair. Jiang Ruan had seen Lin Zixiang from a distance at the palace banquet of his previous life. Lin Zixiang, who was dressed in plain clothes, caught Jiang Ruan’s attention at a glance at a crowd of gorgeous Yingying and Yanyan. They are a kind of people, married to people who are unwilling to marry, and are imprisoned in small cages for their entire lives.
Jiang Ruanchao Lin Zixiang smiled, walked over and sat down beside her, Lin Zixiang nodded at her, Jiang Ruan said softly: “Thank you.”
“It’s just that I can’t understand them.” Lin Zixiang said: “The rich and nobles are always so self-righteous, but they make a little girl embarrassed everywhere.”
Looking at Lin Zixiang’s serious look at such old-fashioned words, Jiang Ruan laughed, and his feelings for her grew a little bit more.
Jiang Ruan talked with Lin Zixiang, and Jiang Li was bitter in his heart. Shen Mingzhen said this to Jiang Susu, and frowned upon seeing this scene: “What is Jiang Ruan’s ability? Lin Zixiang usually has his eyes to look up to the sky, so why would he talk to her!”
Jiang Susu smiled and said, “Big sister is always so cute.”
“Clearly a fox meizi.” Shen Mingzhen said angrily. In a blink of an eye I saw Jiang Li staring at Jiang Ruan, and thought for a while: “Sister Su’er, I see Jiang Li also hates her, how about helping Jiang Li?”
Jiang Susu was stunned, and then smiled: “Why do you say that, don’t make any crooked ideas. Big sister has just returned from Zhuangzi. If something goes wrong, her reputation will be damaged. How will you behave in Beijing in the future?”
Shen Mingzhen also laughed: “Sister Su’er is a bodhisattva heart, but you also score someone. You see today she specially wore this red dress, isn’t it just to steal your limelight. Knowing that you love plain but dressed so brightly , I think it’s a provocation. Sister Su’er, you can’t bear it.”
“This…” Jiang Susu hesitated, and his hesitant appearance fell in the eyes of Shen Mingzhen even more aggrieved, and he said: “Sister Su’er, don’t be afraid, I will stand for you.” After speaking, Jiang Li rushed to the other side. Beckoned: “Sister Jiang Li!”
Jiang Li turned his head flattered, got up and walked to Shen Mingzhen’s side. Among the great ladies in Beijing, the prostitute and the prostitute are actually divided into two circles. Although Jiang Li tried her best to please Shen Mingzhen, Shen Mingzhen only made friends with Jiang Susu, and she could only feel jealous. Now Shen Mingzhen took the initiative to greet her, even though she knew there must be a purpose, she still responded with a smile.
A trace of contempt flashed in Shen Mingzhen’s eyes, but her smile was sweet, and she hooked her little finger: “Sister Jiang Li, I have a whisper to you.”
Jiang Li came over, and Shen Mingzhen whispered a few words in her ear. Jiang Li’s expression was a little surprised at first, then he became hesitant, and he glanced at Jiang Susu who was sitting on the side hesitantly. Jiang Susu just bowed his head to drink tea, still with the same smile as usual, and taught people that he couldn’t see his emotions.
“Sister Jiang Li, can you think about it?” Shen Mingzhen raised her eyes to look at her, her voice becoming more and more delicate: “I did this all for you.”
Jiang Li was silent for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: “Okay, thank you Sister Mingzhen for your perfection.”
Shen Mingzhen giggled, and took Jiang Li’s hand to sit down beside him: “In that case, let’s talk more.”
Jiang Li paused, and Yiyan sat down beside her, and the two of them got together and started talking in a low voice.
While doing all this, Jiang Susu sat down drinking tea, seeming to have no idea what Shen Mingzhen and Jiang Li were doing, only when Jiang Li sat down, he raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Ruan far away. There is a hint of cruelty in it.
But when she didn’t want her to raise his eyes, Jiang Ruan seemed to feel her gaze, turned his head slightly, his eyes met, Jiang Ruan smiled at her. The corners of the raised eyes showed a clear smile, but Jiang Susu’s back was cold for no reason. When I looked again, Jiang Ruan had already turned his head, and everything seemed to have never happened.
