135. On the sixth day of the sixth day, eat hot pot in hot springs

Seeing the Grand Marshal Xie bride and his sister coming, Bai Shao smiled and said, "Please sit in the middle. Bai also wants to welcome guests at the door. If there is any inappropriateness, please forgive me."

This seemed to be the tone of the male owner.

Taiwei Yao felt that Mr. Bai was very good at doing this, so he decided to start a family, which was better than flying around his wife. He nodded and said calmly: "I can do it myself, please go to work hard for Mr. Bai."

The courtyard here is naturally not as good as the century-old mansion in the capital, but fortunately, the style is quite elegant and does not cover a large area, but it is full of ancient meaning and quiet everywhere.

When Yao Shuting followed his brother and sister-in-law into the yard, he found that some guests had arrived and had already sat in the pavilion and Taichung, chatting in groups of three or five.

Before Yuan Xi became a monk, he was the leader of the noble girl in the capital. He made a lot of friends with celebrities in the capital, but this time, the guests invited were obviously carefully selected and were not allowed to enter if they were not the children of the real family.

I have to admit that some people are born good friends in socializing and do not rely solely on the support of family background.

Yuan Xi was obviously well versed in business. Although she had just returned to the mortal world from the Gaoshan Temple, she had already made friends with Mrs. Bai and showed her goodwill to her former relatives and friends without expressing her voice that she was the unattainable Miss Yuan who had caused the competition among the people in the capital and imitated her style of her eyebrows and flowers.

Yuzhu noticed that every guest was enjoying herself when she arrived here.

Mrs. Ruiguo was happily showing the dark red gems that Miss Yuan had specially found for her to several good guests. In order to match the pair of earrings given to her husband, she had been looking for such a gem of gems for a long time. She accidentally chatted with Miss Yuan Xi, but she didn't expect that she would always take it to heart.

Miss Bai was watching Yuan Xi’s new paintings with Mr. Weng. Mr. Weng praised Miss Yuan’s diligence in paintings over the past few years.

Yuzhu looked at it and felt that Bai Shuiliu was indeed a calculating person. He was willing to marry this declining daughter of a noble family. He probably liked her sociable ability?

The current mistress of the Bai family is short-sighted and always treats people as bad as the Yao family's mistress.

Bai Shuiliu is not as disrespectful as Yao Muye. Even if his mother is so popular sometimes, he can't stand it and he can't say anything about his mother. However, he always has to find some of his own body. Marrying Yuan Xi can make up for the shortcomings of the Bai family's back home.

From this point of view, Mr. Bai is still better than Yao Shao when choosing a wife. At least Yuzhu didn't see any winning points in him, and could make the Yao family a hundred years old.

I don’t know if her husband, Grand Marshal, was blinded by lard and actually abandoned such a good wife!

Yuan Xi treated Yuzhu, the young lady of the Yao family, as well. When Yuzhu took out a pair of double-eared Pixiu jade carved vases that he had carved as a gift, Yuan Xi smiled and took it carefully, and suddenly discovered the key to the exquisiteness of the pair of jade bottles.

It turns out that the mouth of this Pixiu can be opened and can directly drop copper coins from its mouth into a jade bottle. This kind of decoration that can boost wealth and save blessings is really a gift suitable for the joy of moving to house. Yuan Xi looked at it again and again, and felt quite unwilling to let go.

Of course, it was also impolitement for me to come without being rude. Miss Yuan Xi also carefully prepared the gift, so she only pulled Yuzhu and Miss Yao into her bedroom, took a set of boxes from the drawer and handed them to Yuzhu.

"I don't know the preferences of the Grand Marshal, so I don't take the liberty to prepare a copy. I don't know if this will be your favorite."

Yuzhu opened the box and saw a short velvet satin lined with an old jade jade decoration. The old jade can be seen in the eyes of insiders. Especially jade handles or close-fitting jewelry, which have been rubbed by people's hands or skin for many years, and the color changes soaked with oil are commonly known as "masking color".

In addition to the quality of jade itself and the acquired skillful hand carving, the care and maintenance of jade holders is an indispensable step. The so-called "jade nourishes everyone to raise jade" is exactly the case.

The set of old jade jewelry in front of me is not only of the best texture, but also of the skillful carving. It actually uses the carving technique that is not commonly used to carve jade pendants on the pendant of this jade necklace. Looking at the jade craftsmen of the Great Wei Dynasty, and in the age of this jade, no one except his father could carve such a fine product.

Yao Shuting did not see the allusion of the ornaments on the side, but she was born to love jade products and immediately said, "It looks so good!"

Yuan Xi unbuttoned the buckle of the necklace and said with a smile: "Beautiful jade needs a beautiful woman to set off! Only when the Madam Taiwei's skin is white can she set off the beauty of the color and gradient."

Yao Shuting looked at her sister-in-law, thinking that Miss Yuan Xi’s praise was indeed good. She saw the jade beads’ black hair on her cheeks, and the wind was flowing in her eyes. The slender neck really made up the necklace’s unique shape. If it were someone else, it might not be suitable. It was like an ornament made for her sister-in-law.

Yuzhu looked at herself in the bronze clerk and was a little dazed for a moment. The more she looked at the necklace, the more familiar she looked. She suddenly remembered that although she didn't remember seeing her mother with her own eyes, she had seen a portrait of her mother in her father's bedroom. The portrait of her mother was wearing the ornament in the brocade box!

Her appearance looks like a mother. When she wears this jade ornament, it seems like a portrait hanging in front of her eyes, which evokes memories of her old childhood for a moment.

First, there was the jade peanut bracelet and the old jade jewelry. Yuan Xi gave it to him intimately connected with his father and mother, and he tried his best to show his kindness to him. Yuzhu felt that a person as smart as Yuan Xi would give him these two gifts, which must be of profound meaning.

But when his sister-in-law Yao Shuting was sitting aside, Yuzhu naturally couldn't ask. She smiled and thanked Miss Yuan Xi for her generous gift.

Yuan Xi took another box, which was a gift to Miss Yao. Miss Yao opened it and found that it was Su Xuezhai's rouge powder that was very popular now, but the boxes containing the gouache were all made of tortoiseshell inlaid with tourmaline stone. It was obvious that it was a special top-quality product, very exquisite, and it was indeed something that girls were keen on.

"I heard that Miss Yao likes the fragrance of magnolia flowers, so I made a set in Su Xuezhai. The color of rouge is also the light pink of peaches, which is not as thick as others. I wonder if it can match Miss Yao's skin color."

Yao Shuting has been lazy in the past few days and has not been able to choose a new gouache product for a long time. This fresh color suddenly aroused the girl's love for beauty. She naturally liked it very much, so she thanked Miss Yuan for her kindness.

While chatting, the three of them walked out of the door and walked through the corridor, they happened to meet the young people opposite.

Yuzhu looked up and saw that the one who was walking in front of her wide robe was the Bai family Qilang!

Seeing this, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Yao Shuting beside me.

Yao Shuting's eyes seemed a little dazed. After sweeping over the young people quickly, he seemed to freeze somewhere for a moment, and then lowered his head slightly with a pale face and stopped looking at people.

Yuzhu sighed in her heart, reached out and grabbed her sister-in-law's hand, held her and said hello to these talents, and then bypassed her.

Bai Qilang was very embarrassed to look at Yao Shuting again, but when he looked up, he couldn't see him for a moment.

The beauty of a girl lies in constant changes, like a colorful butterfly that stretches out her wings, always makes people look forward to it.

Yao Shuting has not yet lost her girlish childishness, giving people a sense of petiteness and cuteness. However, the bloodline of the Yao family has begun to make her exude a unique aura, and her eyebrows and eyes are gradually opening.

Bai Qilang really loved Yao Shuting, and this love was interrupted because it could not withstand the torture of self-esteem. Now looking at Yao Shuting's increasingly charming appearance, the subtlety in his heart is hard to describe.

But now the two are strangers, and there is no longer the past tea party when they pass by, their eyes meet and their lovely beauty. How come this scene is not sad?

The girl just kept her head down, and hurriedly avoiding it as if he was a ghost. Bai Qilang felt a little thrust in his heart at that moment.

Unfortunately, the girl walked too fast, and in the end she pulled her sister-in-law forward. As a result, she accidentally seemed to have tripped by someone, and she almost fell down with a low voice.

Fortunately, a young man stretched out his hand in time and grabbed Yao Shuting's arm.

Yuzhu was staggered by her sister-in-law. She waited steadily and looked up. The one who supported Yao Shuting was the younger brother of the old general Yuchi. If she remembered correctly, she seemed to be listening to someone calling him at the wedding banquet.

The young General Yuchi seemed to have followed his childhood habits and was not very talkative. After holding Miss Yao with his big palm, he looked at her deeply, then turned around and continued to move forward with his companions.

Yuzhu was a little worried and asked the owner of Miss Yuan Xi softly: "Young Master Bai Qi came alone? Why didn't you see his fiancée?"

If Yuan Miaoer was there, Yuzhu decided to shorten the itinerary and only let Yao Muyezi stay and talk to the bureaucrats. She must take her sister-in-law back first. Otherwise, if the scene of kissing me and me would have to sprinkle salt on the wounds of people.

Yuan Xi smiled slightly after hearing this: "I have many distinguished guests in this mansion. How could anyone who is not from a decent background collide? And the one you are talking about may not be the fiancée of the 17th Young Master."

After all, Yuan Xi is about to become a member of the Bai family, and the hidden information she knows about the Bai family is naturally more detailed than that of outsiders. Yuzhu is not easy to ask again. If Yuan Miaoer is not here, it will be relatively better for her sister-in-law.

But from this point of view, the statement that Yuan Miaoer claims to be a descendant of the Yuan family is probably unreliable. Yuan Xi has always been elegant and moderate. This is the first time Yuzhu has heard her evaluate people with such a serious comment.

However, judging from the current situation, Yuan Xi really likes the reputation of the Yuan family.
