atypical prostitute

Chapter 21

Perhaps it was because of a matter of concern, Li Ci's riding skills are so fast that he has no other distractions. It's a pity that seeing Yu Jing and Liu Erlang getting intimate in front of him, even though Xue Shu has witnessed Li Ci's progress, she still keeps a straight face every day.And Yu Jing, because she was sure that Li Ci would not compete with her for the golden turtle son-in-law, her attitude was also much friendlier, and even the old lady was pleasing to the eyes of Aunt Shen.When the old lady of Sizhitang took the things, she no longer picked her nose and eyes, and always said that Aunt Shen didn't care about the people in front of the old lady.

In a blink of an eye, it is the end of April, the fragrant flowers are flying down, and the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and the smell of wormwood is getting stronger.

Yuzhang King Yingzhao, who pacified Xiliang, returned triumphantly, and Wei Guogong, who was stationed in the northwest, also brought his family to Beijing to have an audience.

Perhaps because of Si'er's eagerness, the Duke of Wei accompanied the Eighth Prince Xingyuan and was still slowly marching hundreds of miles away, but the wife of the Duke of Wei had already entered the city in a carriage.

At noon of this day, just after dinner, the eldest lady ordered the ladies to go back to the room immediately to dress up and go to the old lady's place to meet the aunt.

Knowing whether Yujing can get her wish, I'm afraid it depends on the present, so Li Ci just tied up a small bun with colorful coral beads, and a round pearl flower on her hairpin. She wore a gem green skirt and a coat The light green shirt is fresh and pleasant, without losing the demeanor, but it will not take away the brilliance of the rightful owner.

Mrs. Wei Guo has a royal order, so she is naturally magnificent.From a distance, I saw two rows of servant girls standing neatly outside the Sizhi courtyard. Mother Chen in the anteroom had been waiting at the door for a long time.From the first lady down, everyone held their breaths and filed in.

Because the visitor is a guest, and the Duke of Wei has held the military power in the Northwest these years, and the holy family is honored, the Duke's wife and the old lady are sitting on both sides of the small-leaf red sandalwood bed in the center, inlaid with pearls and carved with eight immortals crossing the sea. My sister-in-law's eldest wife sat down with her.After entering, Liu Erlang first saluted the three elders, and then stood behind his mother.

Without the old lady's instructions, the children of the Fu family greeted Mrs. Wei Guogong one by one, and then stood behind the eldest lady. Only the first lady, after all, was hired by the royal family, and she was bestowed on the old lady.

Sitting still like this, the three noble ladies chatted and asked about their health, talking about interesting things at home, while Li Ci quietly glanced at Mrs. Wei Guogong.

In his early thirties, he combed his temples with high clouds, and in the middle was a sapphire and coral comb inlaid with gemstones. He was meticulous, and his forehead with eighteen pearls set off his eyebrows and eyes. The peony skirt is lined with a pink and white satin jacket with dark flowers, and it is tied with multi-treasure beaded multicolored webbing, and a silver-powder painted ink-colored gauze shawl is worn.

Li Ci thought to himself, it is really charming and charming, no wonder there are not many aunts in the family of Wei Guogong.

On the other hand, Fu's family and Liu's family are in-laws, Mrs. Wei Guogong's wife rarely visits, so naturally she spends a lot of money.After the greetings on the scene were over, the wife immediately ordered the mother-in-law to bring out the meeting gifts: exquisite jade pendants, pearl gold hairpins, gemstone bracelets, coral beads inlaid with southern pearls, and golden dolls, all of which were of extraordinary value.The old lady glanced at Yu Jing, who was extremely beautiful among the sisters, and she became more proud, and said with a smile: "My in-laws are too polite."

Mrs. Wei Guogong said: "The first lady is already a family member of heaven. If it is an ordinary object, how can I get it?"

The eldest wife hurriedly said politely: "Sister-in-law, you are being polite. This time, I was lucky enough to be selected. It is nothing more than the eldest princess seeing my jade garland pleasing to the eye, and she made a few preconditions for Your Majesty."

The old lady faintly smelled something, but kept her expression on her face, and ordered several ladies and gentlemen to come forward to receive the reward in sequence.Mrs. Wei Guogong naturally didn't favor one thing over another, she held hands one by one and looked at them carefully before rewarding the objects.

When it was Yu Jing's turn, she was stunned for a while, and said: "The second lady of the Fu family is really beautiful, I am happy to see it, but it is a pity that I can't give birth to such a beautiful embryo... Erlang, you don't have a real sister. In the future, we should treat her like a sister and love her..."

Mrs. Wei Guogong spoke indifferently, but Li Ci was terrified.

The eldest lady didn't like Yujing at all, so she was naturally happy when she heard it, and hurriedly said, "Auntie likes you, thank you soon", the old lady's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she almost couldn't hold it anymore.It was also thanks to Yujing who forced a smile on her face and said, "How can this be so high?" Li Ci couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Seeing that Mrs. Wei Guogong was still greeting Yujing, Li Ci knew that it would be him soon, so she couldn't help but concentrate on the corner of her skirt. Suddenly, she felt a round and warm thing rubbing against her feet, and saw Wei Guogong again. Behind the lady, Liu Erlang gestured to him inexplicably, so he lowered his eyes, and found that there was a white cat with fluffy hair and so fat that he could barely see its size.

It turned out that Liu Erlang wanted this idiot to come back quickly.

But cats are naturally arrogant, the more they want it to be obedient, the more it ignores it. Liu Erlang winks and winks, only for it to crawl around under Fourth Lady's skirt with its high buttocks.Li Ci was well-bred, she didn't move at all, only Liu Erlang was so anxious that he almost made a sound.

Seeing Liu Erlang's irritable face, Li Ci almost couldn't help laughing, but it's a pity that there are strict rules in Sizhitang, he dare not laugh, so he can only hold back.

At this time, Mrs. Wei Guogong was still talking to Yujing. Although she kept praising Yujing for her good life, she kept saying "Erlang wants a younger sister". Even if she wanted to stand up for Yujing, she didn't find a chance.

It wasn't until the old lady's face became more and more ugly that Mrs. Wei Guogong seemed to finally notice that the big white cat was circling Lici, and said with a smile: "Erlang, quickly bring that fat bastard back. It's getting more and more unruly!"

"It's not that A Niang is so used to it, she wouldn't even let me hug her on weekdays."

After saying "slick tongue", Liu Erlang walked up to Li Ci, Li Ci naturally took a step back, Erlang bent down and grabbed the fat white cat.The cat was really bold and used to it. After being picked up, it rolled over comfortably in Erlang's arms, revealing its pink belly. Liu Erlang also doted on it and let it roll in his arms.

Mrs. Wei Guogong gave a friendly smile, and waved to Li Ci: "This is the fourth lady? Sure enough, everyone is very handsome."

Li Ci had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked in front of Mrs. Wei Guogong. The lady was kind, picked up the coral beads inlaid with pearls, put them on for Li Ci, and said: "He is a first-class nobleman with a stable temperament. No wonder Erlang often pinches my cat and talks about it."

"Auntie made fun of me again."

Liu Erlang blushed, but Li Ci looked at Mrs. Wei Guogong calmly.

The madam glanced at her, and said with a faint smile: "Never arrogant or impetuous, with great virtues. Not bad, not bad. You deserve to be the one who got the ancient jade hairpin from Qingluan."

"Ma'am, it's absurd. Princess Meng fell in love with her wrongly, and Li Ci is terrified."

Li Ci said modestly, her heart pounding.

Mrs. Wei Guogong's wife Fang blocked Yujing's talk in Liu's house in the name of "sister", and now she is so polite about the eldest princess, I don't know what to do.

"It's a pity that such a good lady can't enter my Liu family. Erlang is really unlucky."

Madam was so direct, Lici's expression changed again and again.The old lady, on the other hand, had woken up from the shock of Yujing's rejection. She glanced at Yujing, who was smiling, and said, "I heard from Erlang that the folk customs in the northwest are simple, and they don't pick up lost things on the road, and they don't close their doors at night. It's just that there are things left in the wild." , as long as you draw a circle on the ground with a tile to make a mark, that thing has an owner."

"I just listen to the nonsense of this bastard." Mrs. Wei Guogong smiled gracefully, her eyes lingering on Li Ci for a while, and said, "But those who come from the northwest are straightforward people, and they never take what they own."

It turned out to be the case.

Mrs. Wei Guogong looked down on the two concubine daughters of the Fu family, and didn't want to get married, so she deliberately used Qingluan's ancient jade hairpin as a pretext.

It's a pity that after Lici consciously noticed Liu Erlang's thoughts on Yuci, he made up his mind not to have any connection with him.Therefore, Mrs. Wei Guogong's tactful and polite remarks made a big deal out of a molehill.

It's just that Mrs. Wei Guogong didn't know. Seeing her silent, she thought that she was just like Yujing, and she was full of grievances and discomfort at the moment, so she just rewarded a big golden doll with Yuxin casually, and then called Lici to come forward. Holding her in his arms, he was very intimate, and said some scenes such as "my mother's family and Shen's family also have some friendship", "I like you when I see you".Li Ci didn't bother to be perfunctory, just kept giggling "hehe".In the end, even the eldest wife couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "Ladies, you still have homework in the afternoon, so let's go down first."

The ladies were already standing with their feet trembling, but now they got the amnesty order and hurriedly bowed and retreated.

……

……

Perhaps because of the feeling of sympathy, after leaving Sizhitang, Yujing did not go back to her room immediately, but accompanied Lici for a ride.

As soon as Yuhuan and Yuxin walked more than a hundred steps, Yujing sighed quietly, wiped her tears and said: "Do you think today is particularly ridiculous, this uproar is out of self-indulgence."

Li Ci knew that it would be better to pretend to be stupid than to say anything at this time, so she said, "...how could it be? I see that my aunt is quite kind."

Seeing that she was ignorant and ignorant, Yu Jing suddenly raised her voice: "Look at you, you are always smart, but you are so ignorant today. If you think about what Auntie told us, she praised her on the surface, but...in the bottom of her heart, see But we are concubines."

Li Ci smiled wryly, Yu Jing was really exquisite and terribly sensitive.It's just that the previous episode was already pretentious, and now I can only murmur suddenly: "...why...she still..."

Seeing that Si Niangzi had finally opened her mind, Yu Jing took her hand and said in a low voice: "Auntie is a good trick. She snatched up the conversation before the ancestors, and used the hairpin that the eldest princess rewarded you as an excuse. You don't want to offend others but He also made it clear."

"But... the eldest princess...how is it possible..."

What the Eldest Princess said at the Fu family's small banquet had already been spread among the circle of noble ladies.Because the eldest princess's kindness to Fu's wife is well known, when this word came out suddenly, all kinds of opinions arose.It is more plausible to think that the eldest princess originally intended to be a wife of the Fu family, but unfortunately, the old lady of Hua Guogong is used to being bitter and mean, and there is a big disturbance between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, and the granddaughter-in-law can only let go.Of course, it is also absurd, such as the statement that "the eldest princess is going to let Fu's wife replace Princess Kanghui and the Turkic people to get married".The only thing that is certain is that the eldest princess does not intend to let the fourth lady be her daughter-in-law for the time being.

Seeing Li Ci's bewildered face, Yu Jing felt very cordial immediately, and even intended to confide in her heart.

"I originally thought that the status of this concubine is not as noble as that of a concubine. If I put down my face to fight for a good place for myself, it's so much to offend the eldest wife's jokes. But I didn't expect that Mrs. Wei has never You think highly of us as concubine daughters. Even if you become a concubine daughter and have the eldest princess take care of you, you will still be ridiculed."

"I did blame you. I thought you and I were both concubines. Why do you look down on me? Now that I think about it, what you said to me still makes sense. Women should respect themselves. If people don't want you, they can't look down on us. When the concubine comes out, why bother to flatter her face by licking her face?"

Yu Jing smiled coldly: "It's a pity that although Mrs. Wei Guogong's words are smooth, she has no vision. Not to mention, you got the unique ancient jade hairpin of Qingluan in my dynasty, and your life is extremely expensive. How can you be the second son of a Duke's mansion?" Is it possible for the young master to be a match? It's me, except that I am not as good as Yulan, and I am not better than her in terms of appearance and talent? If it weren't for my aunt's lack of knowledge, she thought that Erlang of the Liu family was my good match, and she wouldn't accept this supercilious look."

Having said that, Yu Jing paused.

"I'm not afraid of making fun of you if you say it, maybe one day the Duke and Madam who despised me today will kneel in front of me and salute me."

Unexpectedly, the second lady would say such ambitious words, Li Ci was stunned, and said after a long time: "It is the best that the second lady has such ambition."
