Chapter 291 Country Bumpkin
One second, the eldest girl of the Hou Mansion went out to greet the fifth young lady, and the scene was harmonious and peaceful; the next second, the atmosphere changed, and several flowers and jade flowers poured out of the corner door of the Hou Mansion. The little girl, followed closely by the accompanying old ladies and maids, after these people came out, the atmosphere became strange.
“But the fifth sister is here. Grandma was still talking about the fifth sister during lunch, which makes it easier for us sisters to wait.”
A burst of laughter like silver bells, from came from among this group of beautiful girls.
A girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old came first. The girl wore her hair in a bun with hundreds of birds facing the phoenix, a phoenix hairpin on her head, and a strand of hair left in an arc. She has fragrant cheeks, a gold and jade necklace around her neck, a double-breasted skirt and a sable cloak, and a jingle around her waist. She looks noble and elegant, and her face is full of warm smiles.
The girl had just walked out of the side door, and even Li Shuren didn't see her, when she burst into greeting laughter like silver bells.
Zhu Pingan just raised his head slightly to look at the girl, then curled his lips, so fake.
"Uncle, this is the second young lady of the Hou Mansion, the daughter of the uncle's family, and is quite favored by the old lady."
An old woman behind Zhu Pingan reminded him in a low voice, This was one of the old ladies brought by Li Shu. She would come to the Hou Mansion to give gifts during festivals. She was familiar with the situation in the Hou Mansion, so she was brought to the capital by Li Shu.
"Where is the fifth sister? I miss you so much, but I have to tell you about the rare things in the countryside. I heard that there will be heavy snowfall this year, so the harvest may be good, haha"
At this time, there was another narrow and charming laughter, and then I saw another young lady from the Hou Mansion, holding an embroidered handkerchief in her slender hands and half covering her small mouth. She walked past the crowd with a delicate smile, with a taste of contempt. .
This young lady must also be the mistress of the Hou Mansion. Her appearance is only slightly similar to that of the second young lady. The second young lady is more elegant, while this young lady is more aggressive. With big eyes and thin lips, you can tell he is aggressive at first glance. Her head was combed into a pony bun, and her temples were decorated with necklaces. An agate hairpin shone in the sun. This lady also wore a mink cloak, but the color was changed to a turquoise blue cloak. Under the cloak was a pleated skirt, which looked very eye-catching.
Zhu Ping'an's first impression of her was that this person was probably competitive and unforgiving.
"Uncle, this is the third young lady in the Hou Mansion. She is the apple of the second master's family, and the most favored by the old lady." The old lady behind Zhu Pingan reminded her in a low voice very dutifully. Zhu Pingan.
The two young ladies from the Hou Mansion who came over first came over the crowd with charming smiles. Neither of them had seen Li Shu and the others yet. The sound has arrived. It can be seen that the two of them are very confident. They have not seen Li Shu for several years. They expected that no matter how good Li Shu was in the countryside, he was just from the countryside, so how could he compare to them.
The two of them thought that Li Shu and others might have been so surprised by the prosperity of the Hou Mansion that they couldn't help themselves.
However, the next scene was far beyond their expectations.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they heard a burst of laughter like a lark, and a stunning girl about fourteen or fifteen years old led several old ladies and maids to greet them gracefully.
"Giggle. Tired sisters, you have been waiting for a long time. But it is my sister's fault."
The stunning girl Li Shu walked over, smiled coquettishly with her red lips, and bowed in front of the two of them. , the dark eyes turned cunningly.
Is this the fifth sister?
This moment. The two young ladies in the Hou Mansion were shocked. The fifth sister in their hearts was very different from the fifth sister in front of them.
There is no trace of the fifth sister coming from the countryside in front of me. If I didn’t say it was the fifth sister, I would have thought it was the princess who had arrived. The fifth girl in front of them has a delicate and beautiful face, even more beautiful than the most recognized beauty among their close friends. Even the clothes she wears are the styles that have just begun to become popular in the royal family. It has not become popular in the capital yet. They were only invited to a banquet by the Duke of Wei once and saw it on the princess who came to the banquet.
Especially the jewelry she wears, let alone the delphinium hairpin she wears on her head, with a string of crystal clear black pearls in her exquisitely carved bird's mouth. The pearls were so moist and exactly the same size. The value of this string of pearls was probably much more than the ones they had on themselves.
“Thanks to my sister, the harvest is pretty good. As for the pearls, we harvested several carriages and hundreds of corals.”
As if Li Shu didn't see the shock in the eyes of the two sisters, she pouted her mouth and started counting with her slender hands.
"Ahem, fifth sister, your third sister is asking about the harvest in the fields?" The second lady of the Hou family coughed.
"Then I don't know. It turns out that the third sister likes Tianli." Li Shu looked at the third young lady of the Hou Mansion with an innocent face, as if she was looking at a country bumpkin.
The third lady from the Hou Mansion had a dark look on her face. She was about to speak when another young lady from the Hou Mansion came over.
“Hello, fifth sister, I am Zhu’er. Fifth sister is really beautiful, more beautiful than the fairies in the paintings.”
The person who spoke was the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion. She had a round and cute face, and looked like the time had passed and she was harmless to humans and animals. She wore a pony topknot, a sable cloak, and a lot of jewelry on her body. No less beautiful than the other ladies.
"Hello, sister Zhuer." Li Shu replied with a slight smile.
"Giggle. I heard that the fifth sister has brought the fifth brother-in-law. Pearl should take a good look at it."
The sixth lady of the Hou Mansion giggled and smiled from Li with her little tiger teeth exposed. Shu passed by and walked towards Zhu Pingan.
Then, Zhu Ping'an watched the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion come to him with a sweet smile on her face.
"Giggle. Is this the fifth brother-in-law? I heard that you are a country bumpkin?" Miss Six of the Hou Mansion looked at Zhu Pingan with a round and lovely smile, showing her little tiger teeth, and asked, looking very innocent and innocent.
Zhu Ping'an didn't react at all, but Li Shu on the other side looked a little bad after hearing this.
"Fifth sister, are you tired from the long journey?"
When the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion asked Zhu Pingan, she was also paying attention to Li Shu. At this moment, she saw Li Shu Shu's face looked a little bad, so she asked with a look of concern.
"Thank you, Sister Zhu'er, for your concern. It's nothing. I'm just annoyed by the crows on the way here." Li Shu looked moved, holding an embroidered handkerchief in her slender hand to cover her lips slightly. , replied.
"Then sister, you should have a good rest."
The sixth lady of the Hou Mansion said with concern, and then turned to look at Zhu Pingan, and continued to ask curiously like a little white rabbit:
"Are you really a country bumpkin? I have never seen a country bumpkin like you?"
To be honest, looking at the Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion in front of him, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but think of those species called Green Tea Biao. This one is probably the cute sister Biao: pretending to be cute and cute in front of others. , looks like he is harmless to humans and animals, and the years are peaceful, but in reality he is good at scheming and has greater ambitions than anyone else.
After hearing the cute and innocent question from the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but reveal a simple and honest smile.
"Ahem, a good-looking boy like you, with a pleasant voice, pure and refined, handsome and smart, floating like catkins in the wind and a curious boy, to be honest, you are a country bumpkin like me." Zhu Ping'an showed a naive smile. replied.
He is indeed a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.
The following words must mean that for a good-looking boy like me, I have never seen a country bumpkin like him.
Hearing this, the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion could not help but look at Li Shu with a little pride, baring her little tiger teeth.
However, the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion was a little surprised to find that Li Shu was also smiling and looking at this with interest. It's strange. I shouldn't be adding fuel to the fire, but why am I laughing?
"Ahem, a good-looking boy like you, with a pleasant voice, pure and refined, handsome and smart, floating like catkins in the wind and a curious boy, to be honest, you are a country bumpkin like me." Zhu Ping'an showed a naive smile. Continuing, “One can Beat ten!”
Miss Houfu looked at Zhu Pingan in shock.
“Zhu Pingan, don’t make fun, don’t scare sister Zhuer” said Li Shujiao next to her. Smiling, he said angrily to Zhu Ping'an. (End of this chapter)
