Chapter 83
Lin Miaomiao doesn't like to stay in bed, she usually gets up as soon as she is called, but today for some reason, Qiuyue called her several times, and she was still lazily lying on the bed.

"Aren't you too hot?" Qiuyue took off the thin quilt from her body, "It's time to get up, the old lady is waiting for you to celebrate her birthday."

Lin Miaomiao got up unwillingly, after washing, Qiuyue combed her hair, wanting to comb it to be more luxurious, she shook her head: "It's dead again, it's the same as usual."

"How can this be the same as usual? It's the old lady's birthday, and there are a lot of guests here. You have to be decent." Qiuyue advised.

"Grandma likes any hair I do, so this is it!"

Qiuyue: For some reason, I feel that the lady is a little bit angry.

Qiuyue combed Lin Miaomiao into a single-snail bun, tied it tightly with a red and white hair band, opened the jewelry box, and picked out a multicolored golden phoenix hairpin, a dotted emerald green feather hairpin, and a pair of ruby ​​and bead gold hairpins. She was about to wear it to Lin Miaomiao, but Lin Miaomiao picked up a pink peach bead flower and a jadeite silver hairpin with bamboo knots, and put them on her head.

"Put on some makeup." Qiuyue opened the powder box.

Lin Miaomiao frowned: "What kind of makeup are you wearing? I don't look good, do I? I have poor skin, don't I?"

Of course... no, Lin Miaomiao's skin is worse, so no one else in the world can be regarded as good. Miss Gu is beautiful, but when it comes to skin, how can it compare to Miss who can pinch water at any time?

"Then put on some rouge, it will look better." Qiuyue said with a smile.

"You mean I look bad?"

"Uh... no." What happened to Miss today?Very angry!

In the end, Qiuyue wanted to put some lipstick on Lin Miaomiao, but Lin Miaomiao refused.

Qiuyue shook her head, so let's face up to the sky without a face, anyway, they are not as beautiful as you when they paint.

Lin Miaomiao came out of Fengtang Courtyard, and at the door, she bumped into Gu Qingluan as expected.Mrs. Gu seems to have a pair of eyes on her recently, and she follows her wherever she goes. No, I have been lingering in the house for so long, and Miss Gu can go by herself, but she has to wait for her outside, which makes her Almost thought Miss Gu fell in love with her!

Compared with Lin Miaomiao's low-key, Gu Qingluan has too many eyes, a plain white dress, a purple translucent gauze dress, the cuffs and the front are embroidered with young phoenixes with gold thread, the robe is agitated by the breeze, The lifelike young phoenix seemed to be flying around it, making her immortal and beautiful.Her makeup is also extremely delicate, and her lips are so red that people can't take their eyes off.

Lin Miaomiao opened her mouth.

Gu Qingluan raised her eyebrows: "I'm drooling, girl."

Lin Miaomiao hurriedly wiped her mouth, where could it be? !Bad woman, lied to her again!

Gu Qingluan smiled triumphantly, raised her proud head, and walked away gracefully.

Lin Miaomiao stomped her feet and followed her with her newly purchased fish tank: "This is my house, why do you look more like a master?!"

When the two arrived at Zhihui Courtyard, everyone was almost there. The elders led the guests to the courtyard where the banquet was held, and those who stayed with the old lady were all from Lin Miaomiao's generation.

As early as four years ago, Lin Miaomiao's elder sister and second elder sister married one after another, both of whom were from the capital city. The elder sister's husband's family was from a scholarly family and opened a private school. My brother-in-law's family and Yao's family are in the same business, and they opened a bodyguard agency, but it is said that the business is not very good, and they have changed it to a bank.

After the eldest sister got married, she gave birth to two sons in a row, and she almost walked sideways in her husband's house, while the second sister who was born as a concubine had a little bit of trouble with her children and only got one daughter.However, the Lin family is very powerful, and the second sister's husband's family did not dare to neglect easily, but, after all, she did not give birth to a son, and the mother-in-law inevitably moved her mind to take a concubine and invite her aunt. , the second sister suffered a lot, but she didn't dare to go back to her mother's house to cry. Later, Pei Lang learned about the situation of the second sister from nowhere, and came to the door to reprimand the second brother-in-law. The threat of Zhuangyuan Lang should not be underestimated After that, no one dared to trip up the second sister.

As Pei Lang helped the Lin family more and more, his status in the Lin family skyrocketed, and even the old lady
"Old lady, Miss San and Miss Gu are here." Dongmei reported softly.

The old lady hurriedly said, "Come in!"

Lin Miaomiao and Gu Qingluan slowly stepped into the sight of everyone. The beauty of the two sisters made everyone gasp in amazement.As if walking down from a mural, one is the snow lotus blooming in the clouds, and the other is the clouds falling on the snow lotus, each of which is different in beauty and blends in with each other.

Lin Miaomiao greeted everyone and gave the fish tank to the old lady: "May grandma have today every year and today every year!"

The old lady was amused, and hurriedly asked someone to fill it with water, and put the pair of cinnabar swords in. The cinnabar swords seemed to like their new nest very much, and they jumped in the water for a while, making the old lady lean forward and backward with laughter.

Apart from the paintings that Xiao Yunzhi gave her, this fish tank is her favorite.

Gu Qingluan also gave her a gift, which is a pair of magnetite bracelets, which have the effects of calming the mind and nerves, calming the liver and subsiding the yang, improving ears and eyesight, and are most suitable for people of the old lady's age.

"Miss Gu has a heart." The old lady thanked her sincerely.

Gu Qingluan smiled slightly: "One family does not speak two different languages."

Everyone couldn't help but startled, a family?Is this female wife not treating herself as an outsider too much?Not in-laws!

Gu Qingluan shook his fan and looked at the sky.

Lin Miaomiao: How embarrassing~
Everyone sat for a while, and the little guys from the second room also came to celebrate their birthdays. Lin Yuan took the lead. She is now eleven, and she has a slender figure. Her facial features follow Cui's. The old lady had a purse embroidered by herself, and the old lady happily accepted it. Then came her younger brother Lin Xuzhi, who was only six years old and couldn't do handwork well. He copied a few poems for the old lady. I was also very happy. In the end, the concubine born to my concubine brought back from Qingzhou to Beijing by my second uncle, who was about the same age as Lin Xuzhi, sent a jar of origami cranes I folded myself.

The only regret is that the eldest brother accompanied the eldest sister-in-law back to her natal family to visit relatives, and did not have time to return to celebrate the old lady's birthday.

Not long after, Dongmei came into the house to report that the Pei family had arrived.

Although Pei Lang became the number one scholar, he still lived in the Lin family. The Pei family that Dongmei talked about was probably Pei Lang's parents and younger sister.

Mr. Pei was outside, chatting with the three gentlemen of the Lin family. Mrs. Pei and Ms. Pei entered Zhihui Courtyard. Pei Lang was less than two years old when his mother passed away. This Mrs. Pei was the stepwife and gave birth to Pei Lang A pair of younger brothers and sisters, the younger brother is studying in his hometown, and the younger sister is brought to Beijing.

Pei Lang grew up in the capital since he was a child, influenced by various parties, his temperament is outstanding, no less than the children of the aristocratic family, Mrs. Pei's mother and daughter seem to be slightly inferior.Mrs. Pei helped the golden step on the bun, and along the way, she showed the gold ruby ​​bracelet on her wrist. The golden light shone so brightly that the whole room couldn't open her eyes. Without realizing it, she saluted the old lady with a smile: " I should have come to visit you a long time ago, but these days, I have been busy tidying up the Zhuangyuan Mansion, so I was delayed! Knowing that today is your birthday, I will come to celebrate your birthday in person no matter what I say!"

The old lady smiled: "Thank you very much, you still remember me, the Zhuangyuan Mansion has been completed?"

"It's done, no, Brother Lang picked me up right away!" Mrs. Pei said proudly, and called out the door: "Brother Lang, why don't you come in?"

"Here we come." Pei Lang lifted the curtain and came in. Everyone was shocked by the appearance of Yushu facing the wind.He looked at Lin Miaomiao without squinting, with tenderness in his eyes.

Lin Miaomiao didn't dare to look at him, she lowered her head and played with the tassels in her hand.

A trace of disappointment appeared on Pei Lang's face, and he was about to say hello to Lin Miaomiao when Gu Qingluan blocked him.

"Miss Gu." He greeted politely.

Gu Qingluan rolled his eyes in disdain.

Pei Lang sat back on his seat. Over there, Pei Bing finished greeting the old lady. The old lady rewarded her with a golden face. She was overjoyed. She felt that the Lin family was really rich and treated Lin Miaomiao like her sister-in-law. She stopped being so repulsive, smiled and sat next to Lin Miaomiao, and when she got closer, she realized that Lin Miaomiao was so beautiful by nature without makeup, and she felt a burst of envy in her heart: "Sister-in-law."

Lin Miaomiao was taken aback: "You called me?"

"Yes!" Pei Bing smiled and nodded.

Gu Qingluan knocked on the table with his fan: "Hey, you can eat food randomly, but you can't talk nonsense, you know?"

Pei Bing glared at her displeasedly: "I didn't talk nonsense! Miss Lin is going to marry my eldest brother, she is my sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Pei exchanged pleasantries with the old lady for a while, her eyes glanced at Gu Qingluan and Lin Miaomiao, to be honest, from the perspective of age and temperament, Gu Qingluan was the first thing she caught sight of, Lin Miaomiaomei was beautiful, but she was too beautiful. Like a child who hasn't grown up.

"That's..." She pointed to Gu Qingluan.

The old lady said: "Sister Miao's wife, Miss Gu."

It turned out to be that orphan girl, and she definitely wasn't good enough for Lang Geer, or... after the appointment of Miss Lin, take her back and give her to Lang Geer as a concubine?Considering that she was born in such a beautiful place, if Brother Lang could give birth to a male and a half female, it would not be impossible to raise her as a noble concubine.

Gu Qingluan still doesn't know that she is being taken into the bag by a little Mrs. Pei, and she is persistently driving away the flies beside Lin Miaomiao: "I said, Miss Pei, you are shameless yourself, don't peel off the shame of others , Did Lin Miaomiao say she was going to marry your elder brother? Did the two families get married? Did the elders agree?"

Pei Bing was so angry: "My mother is here to propose marriage today!"

Gu Qingluan raised her eyebrows disdainfully: "Hey, if you mention it, you have to agree? Go ask the old lady if she will marry Lin Miaomiao to your elder brother!"

The old lady patted Mrs. Pei's hand, and said with a smile on her face: "Brother Lang and Miao Miao, it's time for us to be together long ago. They grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they know the basics. It's much better than a blind marriage."

Gu Qingluan: "!"

"Isn't it?" Mrs. Pei laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. "After Brother Lang was admitted to the first prize, he said that the person who said his relatives was about to break through the threshold of my family! But I didn't agree to any of them. In my heart, Miaomiao It's my daughter-in-law! It's your birthday today, I think it's better to hit the sun than to choose a date, so let's settle the marriage between the two children!"

"I'll ask someone to call her mother." The old lady gave Dongmei a wink, and Dongmei opened the curtain and went out.

Pei Lang looked at Lin Miaomiao and smiled softly.

Lin Miaomiao clenched her fists and stood up suddenly: "You...you...you haven't asked me, do you want to marry me?"

Marriage has always been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Who cares if the child is willing or not?Even the Yao family and the old lady dote on Lin Miaomiao so much that they feel that her elders should be the masters of her life.

The old lady was stunned for a moment.

Lin Miaomiao clenched her fingers tightly, her knuckles turned white due to too much force: "I won't marry my cousin."

"Why?" Pei Bing looked surprised.

"Because your eldest brother is not worthy." Gu Qingluan said calmly.

"Who says my elder brother is not good enough for her? My elder brother is the number one scholar! What is she? The daughter of a merchant! If it weren't for the fact that she flattered my elder brother since she was a child, my elder brother would marry her? Princess She wants to marry my elder brother! What's more, she is still a worn-out shoe! Being able to marry my elder brother is simply a blessing from her previous life!"

Everyone in the room turned black.

Is this Pei Bing out of his mind?How dare you slander Lin Miaomiao in the Lin family!Lin Miaomiao and Pei Lang, who is pleasing whom?And what does the phrase broken shoes mean? !

Lin Miaomiao didn't bother to find out who was pleasing anyone, but after Lin Miaomiao was brought into the palace by a little tyrant in her previous life, those concubines would often say harsh words, she really hated those words to the extreme, she Looking at Pei Bing with a pale face: "What do you mean by broken shoes?"

Pei Bing also realized that she had said something wrong, but it was impossible for her to admit her mistake. She hung her neck and muttered: "Who doesn't know about you and Jing Shizi? No one wants you anymore... "

"Who said I don't want her anymore?"

A cold voice suddenly rang at the door, and everyone followed the sound, and saw Jingxi, dressed in dark black clothes, walking faintly against the light, under the pearl curtain, deep in the pearl light.
