Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 21 Ingots
At the banquet, Mrs. Sun could not help but feel a little depressed when she heard what they were whispering to each other.The master who invited them here only exchanged a few words with them when they arrived, and then stopped talking to them. She remembered that the steward said that Cheng Dashan's officials were not enough in Chang'an City, and she didn't want to talk to these people when she first arrived in Chang'an City. When the wives of the officials have conflicts, they can only pretend not to know, but they think in their hearts: "You look down on me, and I still look down on you. If you go to the countryside and everyone can't even do housework, what's the use?" ?”

She didn't feel anything, but Jin Hua and Yin Hua felt aggrieved.These ladies laughed as soon as they said their names, and then pretended to be very interested and asked them about some farm work, and they were always surprised when they heard a little thing.After talking for a while, they talked about the newly released jewelry in the city. The two sisters had only been to the street once, and they hadn't bought anything yet, so naturally they couldn't talk to each other.

The host of this banquet is Cheng Dashan's boss, and all the guests are invited by his comrades, and many of them are from rough backgrounds, and their wives may not all be from noble backgrounds.It's a pity that these few wives from humble backgrounds, because they are not familiar with each other, just look around when they see Mrs. Sun, and have no intention of going forward to make friends, and the same goes for their daughters.

In short, the family went out happily, but came back with a dark face, only Cheng Dashan was drunk and had a happy face.Mrs. Sun didn't bother to talk to him, and took her daughter back to Cheng's house.Once I went back to the main room, I saw Zhuhua was there, playing with Xiaohua by herself.

"You're still smart." She said, and asked her what she had for dinner, and she felt hungry after asking.This Laoshizi banquet is really meaningless, she didn't even eat enough.

"Are you hungry, do you want some noodles?"

Jinhua nodded, Yinhua hesitated for a moment and then nodded, even Zhuhua, who had dinner, booed, "I want it too, just half a bowl."

"Okay." Mrs. Sun nodded, ordered as she wished, and took off the headgear in the room.

"Mother, is the banquet fun?" Zhuhua asked cautiously, why didn't they look so good when they came back?

"Not fun."

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Dashan came in and asked, "What's not fun?"

"It's nothing." Mrs. Sun said lightly, and when he approached, she couldn't help covering her nose with her hands, "You smell too much alcohol, go away and come back after the smell dissipates."

Cheng Dashan smirked a few times, picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it up in the teapot, then swayed to the couch next to him, closed his clothes and lay down.Sun sighed helplessly, turned around and saw that Zhuhua was still staring at her curiously, and said, "You are right not to go, there is no child as young as you there."

It's normal for Zhuhua to think about it carefully. Taking her daughter out in ancient times also has the meaning of making people look at her. She is a five-year-old doll who can see something, so naturally no one will take her with her.Seeing that the two older sisters were silent, Zhuhua walked up to Yinhua with a smile and touched her sleeve.

"Second sister, your new clothes are so pretty, with flowers sewn on the sleeves."

"What's so interesting." Yinhua said angrily, pulling the sleeve out of her hand.

Originally, she was very happy to go out wearing the newly made clothes today. Although the clothes were made in a hurry, the materials and styles were good. She even asked Xia Xiang to help her embroider some patterns on the sleeves. Said that the patterns on her sleeves have some "mountain and wild taste".Hmph, don't think she can't hear it, isn't that just saying she's ugly?
Zhuhua was not angry either, she turned her head and hugged Sun's leg flatteringly, "Mother, I want to sew Huahua too."

"Okay, what kind of flowers do you want to sew?" Mrs. Sun asked patiently.

"Sewn a circle of gold ingots."

Sun laughed when she heard it.Zhuhua became a little anxious, she held Mrs. Sun's sleeve and said, "Mother, what are you laughing at, don't you like gold ingots? Gold ingots can buy a lot of things."

"Vulgar." Yinhua snorted.

Zhuhua immediately pointed at her and said, "Mother, listen, the second sister doesn't like gold ingots, and all her gold ingots will belong to me from now on."

"Okay." Sun replied with a smile.

Now Yinhua was in a hurry, she quickly pulled Sun's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Mother..."

"What kind of style are you doing? I've never seen you like this before." Mrs. Sun pressed her forehead and said.

Yinhua withdrew her hand embarrassingly, glared at Yinhua, and was afraid that Mrs. Sun would really give her money to her younger sister, so she said, "Mother, you can't be partial to my younger sister."

"When have I been biased?" Mrs. Sun asked coldly, "You used to take your sister's calico as well. Anyway, your sister doesn't like these. Why do you care about my sister now? Even if it was poor before. At that time, I never shorted you for anything, let alone now."

Yinhua pouted her mouth silently, staring at the ground bitterly.

"I'm still annoyed by saying a few words, but the older you get, the less sensible you become." She hugged Zhuhua as she spoke, "We embroidered gold ingots, all four of us embroidered clothes, and embroidered them for New Year's wear. We don’t expect other people’s eyes to live our lives. Let alone now, hasn’t my old lady been said before, haven’t you heard those ugly things from the people in the village? It’s nothing. If you take these words to heart, they are words, if you don’t take them to heart, they are farts. You don’t care if other people’s farts smell good or not.

We are from the countryside, what's wrong with the ones from the countryside, I still don't like the awkward attitude of the young lady in the city.Both of you, and Zhuhua, listen carefully, you will learn the rules in the future, but you must not learn the attitude of the lady who thinks she is superior to others.Did you hear it all? "

"Understood." Zhuhua replied loudly.Jinhua and Yinhua naturally agreed, but Jinhua was obviously relieved, while Yinhua was still a little reluctant.

After a few days, Mrs. Sun had people make four coats of similar styles, with patterns of gold ingots embroidered on the sleeves and collar.There will be a banquet later, and the family will wear this to go.Other people's families always prepare new clothes for banquets, but their family only wears this outfit every time, as if they are afraid that others will not know that they love money.

After Yinhua went to a banquet again, she didn't want to go. She was relatively young among the young ladies, and Mrs. Sun didn't force her to follow.Jinhua didn't want to go at first, but she gritted her teeth and went because of the clothes. Zhuhua also comforted her by asking her to try other dim sum, so she could save money for a meal of dim sum for the family.The amount of food in the banquet venue is not very large, but there are plenty of snacks. The other ladies are busy chatting and trying to taste it, only Jin Hua only cares about eating.

The officials and family members in Chang'an City secretly ridiculed their family, and even the senior officials tried to persuade Sun, but Cheng Dashan didn't say anything.The places where men and women go to banquets are separated. He didn't know that other people's wives always change into new clothes every time they come. Besides, Mrs. Sun's clothes are also new. It's only been a month since she made them. Several times, why not new?After looking at it for a long time, he even thought the pattern was pretty, and asked Mrs. Sun to help him make one too.So during the Chinese New Year, the clothes of the family of four were all embroidered with patterns of gold ingots.

Zhuhua was also worried about whether Mrs. Sun would enter the palace to pay respects to the queen and wear this attire. Later, when she heard that the wife of a fifth-rank official was not qualified to enter the palace, she also put it aside, and the seriousness caused to herself There is no idea about the large number of ingot-patterned clothes in the house, anyway, she can wear almost everything when she is young.
