Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 283 Simei and the Fourth Young Master (3)
"Aunt Wen, you have prepared too many things for me. I still have several sets of dresses. I really don't lack anything."

Qingli hastily declined, and if she owed too much favor, the devil Chunyu might use this to threaten her in the future, asking her to do some dangerous and tricky things. Don't blame her for being a villain, as the devil Chunyu has a criminal record.

"Why are you being polite to my aunt? I just like a little girl like Jiaohua."

Wen was very happy, because she saw something unusual. Her son with facial paralysis was still sitting in his seat and did not leave. The distance between the two of them was very close, but he did not escape. This was the first time that he did not escape.

"Ma'am, today you have an appointment with Mrs. Liu from the Shangshu Family of the Ministry of Punishment."

Immortal Grass whispered next to Wen Shi, if his wife went out with Miss Li, she might not come back at the appointed time, after all, Madam Liu sent her mother-in-law to deliver the message, and the two parties also agreed on the time.

"Oh, look at my memory! I'm really old!"

After being reminded, Wen remembered what had happened, and she said apologetically, "Xiaoli, my aunt is going to be a guest at the Shangshu Mansion. It's an appointment in advance. Why don't you go with me? There are several people in the Shangshu Mansion too. Miss, I can also talk with you."

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, the Shui family?That's not the house of the peach-eyed fiancée. Speaking of which, when she first arrived in the capital, she still had a relationship with Miss Shui's family. If she followed her to the Shangshu Mansion, how would she get along with Miss Shui's family? Would she play whips with her?Qingli wiped the sweat from her forehead, saying nothing.

"I'll take her shopping."

Qingli was thinking about how to refuse, and to find a reasonable reason. At the critical moment, Chunyu Wen uttered these few words, and Qingli was relieved. Safety.

"That's just right, you can spend more time with Xiaoli for me, and buy back everything you fancy."

Wen shi confessed to Chunyu Wen a few words, and asked Madam Yu and Du Juan to pick out some more jewelry for Qingli. Eight years old is not too young, and most of the ladies in Kyoto who are engaged to be married at the age of eight are very young, and everyone starts to put on makeup , There are also a lot of hairpin rings inserted on the head.Qingli was originally from a low family background, if she dressed poorly, she would be looked down upon.

During this trip, Qing Li was in the large and luxurious carriage of the General's Mansion, Yu Yu was busy making tea in the carriage, and Du Juan introduced some interesting facts about Kyoto.

In Kyoto, you don’t need to know that there are six departments, and you don’t need to know where Jing Zhaoyin’s yamen is, but you must know the “Four Beauties of the Capital” and the “Four Princes of the Capital”.

When it comes to the four beauties of the capital, it is basically an event that is selected once a year. On the third day of March every year, the royal family in Beijing will hold a large-scale flower viewing feast.

Candidates for the four beauties in the capital are all official ladies above the fifth rank between the ages of 11 and above. Yunying is required to be unmarried, so that she can receive the invitation letter for the flower viewing party, but because the age span is a bit large, those beautiful girls Miss, it is very likely that she has maintained the title of Simei in the capital from the election to her marriage, and the Simei in the capital can get the first dowry from the queen when she gets married. This is definitely a very honorable thing, beautiful, With status, this is simply the object of obsession that the young masters in the capital have been chasing.

"Miss Li, the four beauties of the capital are not just about being beautiful. They are all proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they have been cultivated since childhood as great ladies."

Du Juan clenched his fists in front of his chest, with a dreamy expression, as if he was also a fan of the beauty among them. It was unexpected that women could worship women like this.

"Sister Dujuan, I'm very curious about Simei, please introduce me quickly."

Beijing Simei, it sounds good. I don’t know if the eldest brother can become a fifth-rank official when she is 11 years old. In that case, she is also eligible to participate in the beauty pageant. The name and so on are secondary. People are afraid of being famous. Afraid of being strong, all she wanted was the first dowry given by the queen.

"In the four beauties of the capital, my favorite is Miss Shuijia, Shui Lingli. She is the daughter of Shui Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. She just got married at the beginning of the year. She is the fiancee of the genius doctor Bai Ruochen. As long as we meet, we will fight, Miss Shui's whip is good, it flies up and down, and hits Mr. Bai's face, Mr. Bai has lightness kung fu, he retreats back and flies out, Miss Shui chases after him..."

Du Juan just likes Miss Shui's heroism, talking about the excitement, dancing, from the simple introduction of Simei, to the storytelling of Shui Lingli and Bai Ruochen, even so, Qingli still listens with gusto, sees the peach blossom eyes deflated , is still a very happy thing.

"The old slave will continue to talk."

Nanny Yu took a look at Du Juan, she usually thought that this maid was quite stable, but now she completely revealed her secrets, her face was flushed, her eyes were bright, and she giggled from time to time.

"Miss Shui family, Du Juan, has already said that there are still three people left, let the old slave come one by one."

Nanny Yu poured a cup of hot tea for Qingli, and then put out a lot of melon and fruit snacks and preserved fruits from the drawer. Qingli was not full in the morning, so she also ate preserved fruits, and listened to Nanny Yu talking about the big gossip in Kyoto.

"The second person is Miss Shui's sister-in-law, Bai Ruochen and Mrs. Bai Kexin's younger sister. She is 13 years old this year, but I have never seen her before. I heard that she looks like a fairy, but she has been in poor health for many years. , I can't see the wind, so I seldom participate in the banquets in the capital, but those who have seen her are shocked."

Qingli nodded. The Bai family is probably a family of genius doctors. Bai Ruochen is so powerful that he couldn't heal his own younger sister. This is really... She must be the type of sister Lin, a woman who is cherished by others.

"The third place is Princess Qinghua. She is the eldest daughter of King Lunan who guards the southeast. She is also the most beloved niece of the Holy Majesty. She grew up with the Queen Mother in the palace since she was a child. She has nothing to say about her appearance, but her personality. Leng Ao, the old slave met twice by chance when he followed his wife into the palace."

Mammy Yu's comments were more to the point, Qingli just said, there must be someone from the royal family among the four beauties, otherwise it would be embarrassing, don't they all say that the royal family's genes are the best.

"The fourth place is Yin Yuexi. Her father is Lord Yin, the left governor of the second grade. Lord Yin is upright, upright and honest, and has a very good reputation in the capital. However, some people say that he is a stone in a latrine, which is smelly and hard. Listen. Speaking of his lack of understanding of common affairs, those who came to give gifts to the door were often kicked out of the house, and the number of servants in the family was pitiful. It all depended on Mrs. Yin's wife to save money. My lord is the poorest Beijing official, so Miss Yin often disguises herself as a man and hangs around the market in order to do business to earn money, but these are all rumors, and the rumors must not be true."

Finally, the introduction of the four beauties of the capital is finished. Everyone has a very strong background. It seems that beauty is one aspect. This is really an era of fighting for fathers.
