Chapter 56: Buying

Chun Ge looked remorseful and her eyes turned red as she spoke.

Even Grandma looked at Chun Ge like this and didn't want to ask any more questions, so she even gave some advice.

Then he said goodbye hastily.

When Li Jian'an came back in the evening, it was as if nothing had happened. He just told Chun Ge again about the grades of each household, lest something go wrong at the banquet the next day.

Early the next morning, the door of Li's house was wide open. Li Jianyue, Li Jianxuan, and Li Jianhao all went to the flower hall in the outer courtyard early to wait, and Li Jian'an accompanied the guests.

Chunge wore a bright red dress with large sleeves and golden hibiscus flowers, and a bright red suede satin skirt with colorful clouds and threads.

A red gold phoenix-wing hollow hairpin is pinned to the back of the bun, and in front is a forehead ornament inlaid with eight pearls. The whole person looks gorgeous and dignified, and there is a touch of agility in the young and charming face.

When the fifth lady saw it, she subconsciously touched the white jade-wrapped gold hairpin on her head with her hand, feeling a little uncomfortable. They were both daughters-in-law of the Li family, how could one of them get a pearl and a gold hairpin without paying for it?

You can only get some third-rate stuff and don't bother with it.

What a partiality!

The fifth lady held back her anger and said nothing, and stood aside without saying a word.

On a day like today, Chun Ge didn't want to make trouble with the fifth lady.

It would be great if the Fourth Madam had not had a miscarriage and could still come out to help entertain guests. Although the Fourth Madam is a bit greedy for money, she still knows how to behave and will resolve any matters privately. This Fifth Madam is different.

Last time, when he and the Fourth Madam were checking accounts in the house, they said that a vase from your kiln was broken, and in front of a room full of ladies and maids, he insisted that the Fourth Madam replace it with a similar one.

It can be better, but it can never be worse.

It's really a headache, but I can't talk about it, otherwise I'll be bullying her younger sibling.

Afraid that the Fifth Madam might cause something to happen, Chunge only saw the Fifth Madam rolling her eyes on the frost-patterned Laokeng glass jade pendant, and quickly asked Hongyu next to her to bring out the things she had prepared.

Chun Ge took out the gold hairpin with the baby playing lotus pattern and handed it to the fifth lady, "I packed the box the day before yesterday and saw that some of the hair and faces were not shiny, so I asked someone to melt it and make a new batch. This gold

Chai, as soon as I saw it, I thought it would be a good idea for the fifth younger brother and sister to take care of him."

The fifth lady held the heavy gold hairpin in her hand, and looked at the vivid carving of the fat baby in front of her. There was also a South China Sea pearl inlaid on the hair crown on her head. Although it was smaller, it was still bright and dazzling. She was immediately very happy and couldn't stop working.

He put it on his bun and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is still good at dressing up. Look at the way she dresses her head and face is different from ordinary people."

Chun Ge laughed softly and said, "I have nothing to do. I painted it at home."

The fifth lady had a look of great admiration on her face, and she fiddled with the gold hairpin on her head from time to time.

Chunge looked at the fifth lady, whose hair was covered with pearls, emeralds, gold hairpins, hairpins, and hundred-flower buns. They were complicated and cumbersome in nature, but they looked as elegant and noble as the distant mountains.

Chun Ge felt a little heavy and panicked when the Fifth Madam put another piece of jewelry on her head.

This fifth sibling, who also comes from a noble family, sometimes likes to worry about these things and has to compete with others at every turn, but fails to get the idea right.

Chun Ge pretended to be casual, reached out to tidy up the fifth lady's hair, and pulled out a Huasheng and a hairpin.

Seeing that Chunge held her jewelry in her hand, the fifth lady hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law three, that's mine."

Chun Ge just laughed and handed everything he was holding to the fifth lady's personal maid, "Put it away for your lady. I see that some places don't seem bright. What day is it today? You dare to do such bad things?"

Put it on the fifth lady’s head.”

After a few unclear words, the fifth lady, who had already understood what Chun Ge meant, immediately blushed with embarrassment and did not refute. She watched the maid put away the jewelry, and then followed Chun Ge out to receive the ladies from various houses.

them.

The Li family is now very powerful. The queen in the palace, the princes outside the palace, the harem and the court are all favored by the emperor. In addition, the position of the eldest prince and the crown prince has been clearly revealed, so there are especially many people attending the banquet this year.

Chun Ge smiled and talked around Mrs. Gaoming's circle, fearing that someone was not thoughtful. Occasionally, she would cover up and pay attention to the movements of Mrs. Fifth.

Fortunately, the fifth lady got a golden hairpin and was very happy. Intentionally or unintentionally, she even said a few words to Chun Ge. Chun Ge was finally relieved.

Green Yu, who was waiting next to him, lowered his head and joked with Jade.

"Sister Jade, let's see if the golden hairpin Madam gave me is worth it. If it doesn't bring any benefit at all, how can the Fifth Madam go around saying that our Madam is tolerant and kind-hearted."

Jade has grown a lot after experiencing Amber's incident. Hearing this, he didn't say much. He just gave Lvyu a sharp look and said lightly: "What kind of place is this? You don't have to talk nonsense!"

They are all first-class maids, but their weight in Madam's heart is different.

Green Yu was used to being taught by Jade, and lowered her head and said no more.

Chun Ge glanced at Jade with a calm expression and nodded secretly in her heart.

This maid was finally trained.

It seems that if she stays with her for another year and a half, she should find a good marriage. With Jade looking like this, she doesn't have to worry about getting married.

After Chunge's thoughts passed, she talked with the other ladies again.

After greeting everyone to the banquet and leading everyone to the stage, Mother Li came over and asked Chunge to go to Chunyang Lake.

"Third Madam, Madam Tai has a distinguished guest over there. She pointed out her name and said that she wanted to see you. She asked me to send you over to talk."

In order to be afraid that something bad would happen today, I had recited the treat list several times early.

I remember all the rules and etiquette clearly.

Although there were many people coming and going just now, I knew exactly who they were.

The only person who can get Mrs. Li to say a word of passing is probably the only one on the list.

Chunge straightened her clothes and said gently, "I'll go with my mother right now."

Mother Li laughed.

Chun Ge went to tell the fifth lady a few more words, and asked the fifth lady if she wanted to go with him to say hello.

When the Fifth Madam heard that Chun Ge was going to the Dowager's place, she immediately shook her head vigorously.

My mother-in-law is the most partial. She says she is a kind mother-in-law and does not make it difficult for her daughter-in-law to get along with her, but in fact it is nothing more than that.

Once it falls into her eyes, everything will be fine. If it doesn't fall into her eyes, you won't get a single benefit from anything you do.

Since she had spared herself the trouble of going there to say hello at dawn and dusk, she was usually not willing to get in touch with him.

What's more, there are a lot of old ladies over there today. If they can't say more than three words, they will give money to their elders and give them a lesson. You have to be careful. How can you laugh and laugh with the ladies of the same generation here?

The fifth lady firmly refused and said she would stay here to entertain guests.

Chun Ge didn't force herself and followed Li's mother to the Madam's house.
