Chapter 40 Favor

"Maybe it's like you," Caique on the side heard it and smiled and said, "After all, it's your grandson. The old lady was one of the best ladies in the capital back then. Whoever heard that you are not good at being the rules and talents are the best. The big girl looks transparent. Perhaps she is born like this, and she can still raise the style of the palace even in the village."

"You are just sweet-mouthed," Mrs. Jiang laughed and scolded: "I don't know what good that girl promised you, but she actually spoke for her like this."

"I'm not flattering the big girl, I'm trying to please the old lady." Caique replied.

Mother Zhang also laughed: "Mrs. Don't worry so much. It's a good thing for the young lady to understand the rules. I see that it's one of the best ladies in Beijing. The Jiang family has such a person, so proud."

Mrs. Jiang nodded: "I just hope she can do better tomorrow."

The next morning, Lian Qiao called Jiang Ruan to get up early. Jiang Ruan told Bai Zhi to take care of Madam Zhou, so today's trip was followed by Lu Zhu and Lian Qiao. Lu Zhu served Jiang Ruan too early, and Lian Qiao couldn't wait to help Jiang Ruan change her clothes. Lu Zhu smiled and said, "Sister Lian Qiao looks so anxious. Those who don't know think that it's Sister Lian Qiao who is visiting today."

"I'm talking nonsense, let's see if I don't tear your mouth." Lian Qiao said: "We girls haven't dressed up well for many days. I've said that we girls are beautiful women. As long as we think of the eyes that fall from those people when our girls go out later, I have to be very happy."

Jiang Ruan smiled: "The beauty in Jiang's mansion is not me."

"Miss is talking about the second girl?" Lian Qiao was straightforward and said regardless of it: "Miss Second girl looks good, but it's too light. She looks good now when she is younger. If she is older, she will look a little boring if she continues to be so plain. Where is the charming color of our girl?"

Jiang Ruan laughed: "Do you know that these beautiful and refined beauties are now prevalent in Beijing, but they are as vulgar as me."

Dewdrops were tying things on the whole table, but when they heard this, they couldn't help but speak, "Miss is wrong. The literati and poets all said that they love lotus and are not stained with mud, but people in the world often spend a pot of money to ask for a pot of Luoyang peonies. Can anyone see who spends money to ask for a pot of lotus in the pond?"

Lian Qiao nodded: "That's the reason."

Jiang Ruan shook his head and said nothing. After dew brushed his hands, he asked Jiang Ruan to sit in front of the dressing table: "What kind of hair do the girl want to comb?"

"It's up to you." Jiang Ruan said: "Just not lose etiquette."

After a long time of incense, the carriages outside the Jiang Mansion were ready, with two carriages in total, including Jiang Susu, Jiang Ruan, Xia Yan, and Jiang Dan and Jiang Li. The two carriages must be set off together to Shen Mansion. Shen Shilang and Jiang Quan had some support in the officialdom, and they had always had a good relationship.

When Lian Qiao Luzhu followed Jiang Ruan out of the house, she saw Jiang Li and Jiang Dan had arrived from afar. The two stood beside Xia Yan and talked to Jiang Susu. Jiang Li was the first to see Jiang Ruan and smiled and said, "The eldest sister has such a great face, which has made her mother and sisters wait for a while."

"It's Jiang Ruan's," Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "After all, it's the first time I entered the Shen Mansion after I came back. I found the nanny in the yard and asked some things, so as not to lose etiquette when I got it. Others would only say that the people in our Jiang Mansion don't understand the rules."

Xia Yan smiled kindly: "What are you doing when you say this? Ruan Niang dresses up like this today and is so beautiful."

Jiang Li and Jiang Susu's eyes simultaneously showed a strange color. They wore large red satin and narrow silver jackets with jade, satin skirts with flowers, and small sheepskin boots with gold and red clouds. They thought that Jiang Ruan would be unable to suppress such a dress and would only let the clothes set off. Unexpectedly, Jiang Ruan was extremely incompatible with this dress, as if she was born with this dress for her, without any restraint. Instead, she spread a kind of nobleness and tranquility to the extremely passionate red, and then she was filled with a hint of charm, which made people stunned. Everyone present felt that the beauty was aggressive, and the bullying lady in front of her was completely unfamiliar.

Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "The sisters are very beautiful too. My mother can kill me if she says this."

With such a warm and affectionate conversation, the few of them got on their own carriage. After getting on the carriage, Jiang Susu snuggled in Xia Yan's arms, paying attention to Jiang Ruan from the corner of his eyes. He thought that the three of them would feel uncomfortable in the same carriage. Jiang Ruan would hold this travel note and look at it. His eyes were peaceful, which made Jiang Susu, who wanted to speak, difficult to speak.

We were at peace all the way, and after a while, the carriage stopped in front of the Shen Mansion. Several people got off the carriage, and the servant who led the way at the door of the Shen Mansion came out to greet him. Xia Yan handed over the post, and soon a rich old lady walked out of the door and said with a smile: "Mrs. Jiang is here, our wife has been waiting for you for a long time."

Xia Yan responded with a smile. After walking for a while, he was led into the hall. Mrs. Shen was already waiting for tea. When she saw Xia Yan, she was very intimate and said, "Sister doesn't come to sit often these days. If it weren't for my birthday, I'm afraid I'd be looking forward to you."

Xia Yan also laughed: "Ruan Niang has just returned these days and is busy taking care of her. Don't blame me."

Mrs. Shen turned her head, her pair of shrewd eyes fixed on Jiang Ruan, and a hint of surprise flashed: "This is Miss Jiang, she is such a beautiful lady."

Jiang Ruan stepped forward to greet him, and after hearing Mrs. Shen's slightly unrestrained words, he was still calm and said generously: "Mrs. Shen praised her."

Mrs. Shen's eyes seemed to be looking at an object. Lian Qiao and Luzhu were dissatisfied with her. She turned her body calmly, covering Mrs. Shen's inquiring gaze.

A trace of resentment flashed in Jiang Li's eyes, and she came forward unwillingly and smiled sweetly at Mrs. Shen: "Hello, Madam."

Mrs. Shen's attitude towards Jiang Li was very cold. She responded and looked at Jiang Susu, and smiled: "Su Niang has become more and more charming these days. Looking at her like a little fairy, I'm jealous."

"Mom, why are you jealous?" Before he finished speaking, he heard a sweet voice coming from outside. A girl in pink shirt walked out of it. When she saw Jiang Susu, she rushed over excitedly: "Sister Suer!"

Jiang Susu smiled and took her hand: "Sister Mingzhen."

Shen Mingzhen is the pearl in Shen Shilang's family. Shen Shilang has three sons, but only one daughter. Jiang Ruan's last life had the only impression of Shen Mingzhen, which was Jiang Susu's friend in the boudoir, but for some reason he was always hostile to himself. Every time she had a conflict with Shen Mingzhen, Jiang Susu rescued the situation. He said that he was a fool, and only knew the piano skills and dances that only vulgar dancers could do, and Shen Mingzhen also had a great contribution.

In the previous life, Jiang Ruan didn't understand. She had not provoked Shen Mingzhen, so why did Shen Mingzhen insist on going against her? Now when she thought about it, she completely understood. In the road where enemies were everywhere in the previous life, the distance between life and death was separated. When I saw this old friend, time suddenly flowed, and I returned to the time when everything had not happened, but I didn't know what the ending of Shen Mingzhen in this life was.
