Abandoned Woman Remarried: Love Leng Nian General

Chapter 83 Longevity
The time for the old lady's birthday finally arrived, and the whole General's Mansion was full of joy. The actors from the Qingxi Opera Troupe were singing on the stage. The Indus Courtyard of the old lady is not close, only the sound of gongs and drums can be heard vaguely.

Su Fengjin lowered her head to embroider her embroidery, and now she has embroidered the last set of clothes at the end of autumn, this set Su Fengjin embroidered with crabapple flowers, Wanzhu sat beside her, holding the thread, and said anxiously: "Miss, today is the old man It's my birthday, why don't we go? What will the people around us say about us then?"

It has been raining for several days in a row recently, but today is sunny, which was originally an auspicious day, Su Fengjin said softly: "If I go, they won't be happy. If that's the case, why bother to spoil their interest?" .”

Wan Zhu pouted: "Then we won't go, anyway, every time we meet them, it won't do any good, so we might as well stay in the east room."

Su Fengjin was embroidering with lowered eyes, and she still had three sets of clothes, so she finished them all. When the time comes, she will deposit the money in the bank. If she needs to use it in the future, she can get it in time, which is better than leaving the money in the east room. good.If there was a day... a day when she had nowhere to go, she could still escape.

Su Fengjin was thinking carefully, Chun Ya came over with a basket, and said to Su Fengjin: "The flowers are all dried, what do you want to do for snacks?"

Su Fengjin glanced at the flowers and shook her head: "It's been raining a lot in the past two days, so you can dry them again and do it tomorrow."

Chunya put the basket down, looking at Su Fengjin's leisurely look, she was a little anxious: "The old lady's birthday has already started, you really don't want to go and see it?"

Wanzhu took a dried flower and said angrily: "What's there to look at? Could it be that my lady will live a long life if she looks at the old lady a little more? Those high-ranking officials are not good-hearted people, and they can talk about it." If it sounds bad, let's not go, right, miss."

Chunya snatched the flower from her hand, hating iron for being weak: "Hmph, I'm too lazy to tell you, your young lady deserves to die of old age in this crappy place!"

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes, and suddenly lost interest in looking at the embroidery on her hand.

Aunt Fang came out of the room and said softly to Su Fengjin: "Grandma is also the official wife who is bestowed on the present day. Although Lan Xin is a regular wife, in terms of status, you should be higher than her after all. The slaves are already prepared." After taking off the clothes, grandma wants to change to give a congratulatory speech? I can also teach those people outside to see that grandma can be a family. If the master hands over the management of the general's mansion to grandma in the future, grandma will also have a convincing Not for the first time.”

As soon as the old lady Su Fengjin was mentioned, she became frightened, and her hands and feet turned cold in an instant: "Do you really have to go? Aunt Fang, I..."

"That's the old lady in the mansion, grandma should go there. Didn't grandma embroider the picture of Baifu before? It just so happens that this birthday can be used, and such a congratulatory message does not lose her status as a grandma." Aunt Fang helped After Su Fengjin enters the room, there is a plate on the table in the room, and on top of the plate are neatly folded robes, which are very gorgeous, and Su Fengjin can recognize the embroidery all the year round. Like a feather coat, it is cool and gorgeous.

"This is Yunjin! How could it be..." Su Fengjin was a little confused. Such a luxurious material was originally only available in the palace, so how could it appear here.

"It turned out that I was rewarded for your meritorious service in water control a few days ago. According to your size, I ordered the people in Wenxiuyuan to make a few sets of clothes. Look at the craftsmanship of Wenxiuyuan. It is worthy of being embroidered by the royal embroiderer." Yes, although it is not as good as grandma's embroidery work, but it is the same from a distance, look at the care that grandpa has for grandma, it is really hard work, you should go there on this birthday." Aunt Fang Wrinkles appeared from laughing, and I was so happy to touch the brocade material.

Su Fengjin was silent for a while, then went to the closet, and picked out a plain robe with tangled branches of begonias. Although the clothes are better than those made of brocade, they are also made with sincerity.

"Return that dress, I'll just wear this one."

Aunt Fang stared at the dress with disgust on her face: "Why are you so confused! Those adults outside and the young ladies of your family are not dressed in brocade clothes, you are ashamed to go out in this tattered dress, isn't it a beating?" Grandpa's face?"

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes, with a bit of emptiness in her eyes, and said slowly: "I was originally laughed at by them, but now that I'm wearing my own clothes, it doesn't matter, those ugly words... I heard a lot, I... …what else is there to lose.”

Festival?reputation?Family?Or her life?

Aunt Fang suddenly felt distressed, she sighed and had to follow her.

When Su Fengjin went to the front yard, she immediately saw the large theater stage, on which there were actors singing softly, a group of high-ranking and noble ladies were sitting around the old lady, Lan Xin was dressed in rich and brocade clothes, and she was extraordinary. With a temperament, he controls the entire birthday banquet with one hand, looking like the hostess of the mansion.Mrs. Wei also helped Wei Lanxin. Wei Lanxin stood beside Zhan Qingcheng, accompanying him to wander among many distinguished guests and dignitaries, pushing glasses and changing dishes with ease.

Those true and false words reached Su Fengjin's ears, and she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and couldn't figure out why she came to such an occasion.

"The general and his wife are truly a match made in heaven."

"Yes, yes, this child's matter must be taken care of, my family is already the mother of two children..."

Zhan Qingcheng just took a sip from the wine glass and laughed it off, but Lan Xin was able to exchange greetings with them in a dignified and decent manner.

Su Fengjin turned around and wanted to leave, but she heard Zhan Qingcheng's voice close at hand: "Jin'er, why do you want to leave when you come?"

Su Fengjin had no choice but to freeze in place, turned her head away under Aunt Fang's urging, and when she raised her head, she met Zhan Qingcheng's deep eyes, with a smile on his lips, against the sun, his outline became a little blurred.

"I... Aunt Fang said that I should come to give a congratulatory gift." Su Fengjin tightly held the handkerchief in her hand, with a pair of empty eyes on her cold face. If it was before, Zhan Qingcheng would not be able to see anything, but now Zhan Qingcheng has already touched her half through, so he knows that the more expressionless she is, the more violent the waves in her heart will be.

He held Su Fengjin's hand and chuckled softly: "It's rare for you to be nervous, don't worry, I won't let others make things difficult for you."

Zhan Qingcheng led Su Fengchang to the stage so openly, Su Fengjin struggled constantly, and whispered: "Let go! I'll go by myself."

Zhan Qingcheng didn't let go, he dragged Su Fengjin to the old lady's eyes: "Mother, Fengjin is here to celebrate your birthday."

The old lady put down the flower cup, glanced leisurely at Su Fengjin: "It's rare for you to have such thoughts."

These words contained some metaphors, Su Fengjin lowered her head, pretending that she could not hear the meaning, knelt on the ground, and said solemnly to the old lady: "Su Fengjin respectfully wishes the old lady a long life."

Seeing her hopeless appearance, Aunt Fang felt anxious liver pain, came to Su Fengjin's side, smiled at the old lady: "Grandma has already started preparing gifts for a long time ago, and it took three months I stayed up quite a lot of nights, and finally finished embroidering the picture of a hundred years of life, and I wish the old lady a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longer life than the South Mountain."

The old lady touched the jade ruyi in her hand, it was clearly hot summer, but a huge shed was built in the front yard, and several canals were dug in the front yard, and ice was brought in to soak in the water. It's cool, but Su Fengjin's body is cold at first, and after kneeling on the ground for a while, she feels very cold all over her body.

The old lady glanced at her, with a decent smile on her face: "It's hard for you to worry about it so much. You are not in good health, so you should go to rest earlier. Help her back to rest, and don't get sick again."

Aunt Fang quickly helped Su Fengjin up: "Yes."

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes and wanted to leave, Zhan Qingcheng suddenly said: "Mother likes this picture of Baifu?"

The picture of Baifu was carried up by Anji and Kang Fu, and placed in front of the stage. The character "Fu" was embroidered with gold thread, and each character was different. The words are all around that one, looking at it from a distance, it seems to be luminous, eye-catching.

The old lady just looked at the embroiderer and was very happy: "This embroiderer is really exquisite. Is it really you who embroidered by yourself?"

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes and replied in a low voice: "Return to the old lady, I embroidered it."

Just as Su Fengjin was about to answer, Liu Yuxiang took the old lady's hand, glanced at Su Fengjin with strange eyes, and smiled flatteringly at the old lady: "Old lady, it's really a coincidence, it's not easy for me to trust someone a few days ago I just got Mr. Yuliu's picture of Baifu, and I was about to present it to the old lady, but I never thought, but the grandma taught me to take the lead, and I don't know what to give to the old lady right now."

The lady from the noble family held a silk, bamboo and jade fan and smiled lightly: "Since that's the case, why don't you take out Mr. Yuliu's pair as well. Speaking of which, Mr. Yuliu hasn't released any new embroidery for a long time. Well, it’s almost extinct this year, and I don’t know if there will be new products in the future.” Mr. Yuliu’s embroidery has now been sold at a high price because of the lack of embroidery.

Mrs. Wei looked at Su Fengjin, saw that she was thin and thin, with her head lowered and she looked like a gourd, she didn't feel that she could pose much threat to her Lanxin, after all, this Su Fengjin, regardless of her talent, appearance or handling of affairs The methods are inferior to Lan Xin's in everything, but looking at the eyes of Zhan Qingcheng and Su Fengjin, I feel a little uneasy. No man has ever looked at a woman with such warm eyes, unless...

The old lady patted Liu Yuxiang's hand and smiled kindly: "If you are interested, you can bring it here for everyone to see Mr. Yuliu's handwriting. Speaking of which, I haven't heard of Mr. Yuliu's new work for more than a year. It's like embroidery."

Liu Yuxiang took a handkerchief in the old lady's hand, and said in amazement: "Ah, I'm afraid this handkerchief was also embroidered by Mr. Yuliu. It is double-sided. It looks really delicate, and so does the purple lilac flower." It looks good, it looks real, I can't learn this kind of embroidery by myself."
