My Lord, your wife is spreading rumors about you again.

Chapter 13: Floating Light and Brocade Clothes
"Miss Er Er. I."

Seeing that Zhu's mental defenses were being shattered by Mingli's punches and the city gate was about to be lost, a housekeeper beside her, Matron Li, stepped forward and supported her.

Li Ma Ma smiled and said, "Madam, you are confused, aren't you? Although our master is a concubine's son, didn't the old lady promise to register our Miss Yun and Mr. Cao under her name? Then she is considered a legitimate grandson. Since she is a legitimate grandson, how can she not be attentive?"

After hearing this, Zhu secretly calmed down.

Yes, the outcome between the old lady and the second girl is still undecided, so she can't take sides so early. If she makes a mistake, the loss will outweigh the gain.

She lifted her hair, and stood in the wind like a willow, smiling softly, "It's a good thing that you miss your younger brother and sister. But you just got divorced and returned home, and your husband's family has suffered a tragic death. Don't worry so much. The marriages of the sisters in the family are taken care of by us elders. Besides, your third brother and fourth sister are not of high status and have poor talents. I will be satisfied if they are just matched with ordinary people."

Zhu took Mingli's arm and said, "By the way, didn't you say you were going to pay your respects to the old lady? Are you going?"

Shancha's words echoed in her ears. She said: The third wife, Zhu, was born in a brothel, and she was a double-faced woman, living by relying on Old Lady Ming. After her elder sister got married, Mingxin was raised by her.

To find Mingxin's body, we must start from the third room.

"Didn't Third Aunt say she made some new shirts and dresses for me to try on? Are you still going?"

Zhu was choked, but her expression remained unchanged: "Yes, yes, of course I have to go, let's go."

Qionghua Pavilion

The flowers on the branches of the trees are gorgeous, the grass is lush and flourishing, the water in the pond is as clear as a mirror, the fragrance of flowers and trees is diffused, and the waterside pavilions stand by the water.

Nanny Lai, who was beside Zhu, was following behind Mingyun, and repeatedly told her carefully: "Fourth Miss, you must be careful of Second Miss. She seems to have become a different person this time. It's not easy to deal with her. Madam Wang and Young Master Yang from the second branch of the Zhang family are here today, so Madam must go out to receive them personally, so."

"Madame Lai!"

Mingyun's hair was covered with gold and jade hairpins, and she was covered in jewels, looking like a local tycoon who had become rich overnight.

She said impatiently, "Has anyone ever told you that you're really nagging? Mother is the same. It's rare for Brother Yang to come, so I should have gone to talk to him properly. Why did you insist on asking me to accompany Mingli to try on clothes? That bitch who has slept with thousands of people and fucked by tens of thousands of people, she doesn't even have the qualifications to attend the flower viewing banquet! In my opinion, she was just pretending to be rich yesterday. Why is mother so scared? And she insisted that I accompany her, it's so annoying!"

Nanny Lai didn't dare to say a word after being scolded.

She sent Mingyun to the front door of Qionghua Pavilion, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Fourth Miss, remember that the clothes here must be worn by Second Miss. Madam may be too busy, so I will go there first."

Mingyun had no intention of listening to the lecture at all. She simply covered her ears and turned to walk in. Seeing this, Lai Ma was also powerless. Anyway, she had already said everything she should say according to Zhu's instructions. As for how much the fourth girl listened, she had no way to control it.

"Oh my! What beautiful material!"

Ming Yun suddenly came to her senses. She rushed over with shining eyes and touched it carefully. This touch frightened Ming Yun so much that she shouted, "It's actually Floating Light Brocade! Mother actually used the priceless Floating Light Brocade to make clothes for that bitch Ming Li?!"

She felt a surge of anger in her chest and tightly clenched the shimmering brocade dress in her hands.

However, at this moment, Mingli was leaning against the door with his arms folded, looking very interested. Just now, someone from the Zhang family came, and Zhu didn't want to be too polite with Mingli, so she left her and hurried over. "Ahhh!"

Ming Yun angrily slammed her fist on the table. Why?! Such beautiful and precious material, there might not be many in the whole of Kyoto... No! Even in the imperial city, why did mother give it to that bitch Ming Li!
Ming Yun had her back to her. Ming Li looked at her for a while and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips. She seemed to see a halo called "jealousy" surrounding Ming Yun.

Her elder sister never mentioned to her the bad people and things in the Ming family. She was always soft-hearted and would not complain to her younger sister, so her elder sister often knew less than Shan Cha about many details in the mansion.

Shancha said that Mingyun inherited her mother's true teachings, and although she was a concubine's daughter, she was determined to fly to the southeast branch.

She put down her hand, stood up and walked in: "What a beautiful dress, the glittering brocade fur coat is dazzling and dazzling. If anyone can wear this dress to the flower viewing banquet today, he will definitely be the focus of the whole audience, and maybe even famous in Kyoto."

Ming Yun's body stiffened and she turned around immediately, and saw Ming Li walking to her side, but she was reluctant to put down the floating brocade in her hand for a long time.

Mingli raised his eyebrows and said provocatively, "This was made specially for me by Third Aunt. Fourth Sister, please return it to its original owner."

Mingli emphasized the four words "return the property to its original owner", almost emphasizing each word.

Seeing that she still didn't move, Mingli smiled slightly. She reached out and grabbed the floating brocade clothes, then pulled hard and pulled the dress over.

Mingyun didn't expect that she had so much strength and almost stumbled and fell.

"you!"

Mingyun glared at him.

She bit her red lips, looked at the floating brocade in Mingli's hand, then looked at the ordinary cloud brocade on her body. The difference was simply worlds of difference!
In fact, Yunjin Duan is also a very expensive material. The price of a sleeve alone is five or six taels of silver, which is the silver of an ordinary household for half a year. But if compared with Fuguang Jin, it is indeed not even qualified for comparison.

"Second sister." Ming Yun took a step closer and looked at Ming Li with contempt. "Second sister just got divorced and then lost her husband. The murder case in her husband's family has not been settled yet. It is not wise to come out to meet people at this time. If the bad luck on her body is passed on to us, it will affect the fortune of the Ming family. This floating brocade is priceless and should belong to the person who is most suitable for her. Second sister, what do you think, right?"

"Moreover"

Ming Yun glanced up and down at Ming Li, and seeing that she was still wearing the same plain clothes as yesterday, she couldn't help but sneer. Perhaps this was the only tattered piece of clothing she had, which was not presentable enough.
Ming Yun sneered, "All those who came to the flower viewing banquet today are from famous and prestigious families, and their status is so noble. Second sister, you look like you are going to visit a grave."

Mingli had been living in the mountains and had been wearing coarse cloth since she was a child. She was stained with blood at Zhou's house yesterday, and her clothes were also dirty, so she picked a plain dress from her sister's closet. This plain dress was much more comfortable than the one she wore before.

Even though Su Pu is simple and honest, he is not inferior to Ming Yun who is full of wealth and splendor.

She was pretty, with bright eyes, white teeth, black hair and red lips. The coarse linen shirt she wore not only concealed her flaws but also added a sense of purity to her, as if she was untainted by the world and detached from it.

But Mingyun's eyes always reached the horizon. In her eyes, the world was full of unbearable vulgar things, except for her natural beauty. She had a slim figure, with two strands of hair hanging on both sides, and she had mastered Zhu's brothel skills to perfection.

Mingli raised his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "What do you think, Fourth Sister, when I put on this floating brocade, who of us will look more like a tomb-goer?"
