I fought back after reselling my engagement
Chapter 18 Adding Jewelry
Miss Zhen's given name is "Rong", which is very resonant. "Tomorrow, sister will go to the flower viewing party, so you have to remind me more, so as not to break the rules and make a fool of yourself."
"It's really a joke when other people make fun of you. But for a little fairy like my sister, if there's something wrong, it's still called being frank and cute." As soon as Zhen Su finished speaking, the fourth Miss Zhen laughed happily. Her laughter was like a silver bell and very pleasant to the ears.
The old lady walked in front, "Earlier I was worried that Rong'er wouldn't get along with the sisters, it seems that my worry was in vain, look at the sisters who haven't seen each other for many years, blood can't lie, once they meet, they have endless things to talk about."
Zhen Zhen and Zhen Zhu looked disdainful. The two of them had similar interests and hit it off right away.
Zhen Rong looked at Zhen Zhu's expression and felt unhappy. What did she think they were? Her maternal grandparents were so poor that they had to beg for money everywhere. Why did they still put on airs? Her mother also said that the only real daughter in the eldest house was her second sister. She had a family background, her maternal grandparents were officials, and her uncles were all officials.
The second sister got along well with her, so they were upset. However, she did not take their attic or house. She lived with her grandmother and came to take care of her grandmother on behalf of her parents.
Zhen Zhu showed her displeasure, and suddenly saw Zhen Rong rolling her eyes at her, and she immediately pouted in anger.
The old lady walked and looked around. She saw a few rose bushes in the back garden. They were very nice and fragrant. "The girls will attend the banquet tomorrow. Have you prepared your dresses and jewelry? When I came here, I passed by embroidery workshops and jewelry shops and saw many girls from official families buying new dresses and jewelry. Call the owner of the jewelry shop and I will pick out some decent jewelry for the girls."
Zhen Su bowed and said, "Grandmother, I have jewelry. My grandmother gave me some in the past, and Princess Fanghua gave me a set of gemstone jewelry from the Ministry of Internal Affairs not long ago."
It would be fine if Princess Fanghua sent fabrics, but why did she also send gems and jewelry? Could it be that Princess Dekang's mansion took a fancy to Zhen Su and wanted to marry her? The old lady was excited when she thought of this. The second young lady was born beautiful and was raised by the Su family. She had good temperament, appearance, and talent. This was very likely.
"Girl, you can wear the jewelry given by the princess in private. For a grand flower-viewing party like this, you should wear the jewelry prepared by the elders. My eldest daughter-in-law, call the people from the jewelry shop. My second daughter-in-law, show the invitation to grandmother and see how many sisters you can bring."
Zhen Su called Chunyan, and Chunyan flew over to get the invitation and also brought the fabric for the fourth girl.
The group followed the old lady into Rongning Hall.
The old lady sat on the small couch in the middle. A young maid tapped her legs, a maid massaged her shoulders, and a little maid held snacks and tea in her hands.
This is truly the life of a landlord’s wife. This is how Zhen Su dreamed of her old age in her previous life. The light in her eyes flickered again and again.
When Chunyan came in, Zhen Su presented the post to the old lady and held the satin to Zhen Rong's body, "This color looks good on you, sister. You have good skin, so you can look good in any color."
Zhen Rong took the tribute satin. It had beautiful colors and patterns. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. Mrs. Zhen San had a rich dowry, but she couldn't get this tribute satin. Only the royal family had it, and it was given as a reward to favored civil and military officials or royal relatives from time to time.
Zhen Rong said, "My second uncle is in the shipping business. He gave me some fine pearls at the beginning of the year. I will give them to my sister later. She can make them into jewelry or embed them on shoes. They will look very beautiful."
The two sisters talked passionately.
Sisters Zhen Zhen and Zhen Zhu sat together and drank tea quietly.
Zhen Zhu glanced at Zhen Rong with a proud look. Zhen Rong smiled and asked angrily, "Fourth sister gave the pearl to second sister, but not to me and eldest sister."
Zhen Rong asked, "Third sister always glares at me, is it because of this?"
Staring at her? She was clearly looking at her with contempt.
The old lady looked at Zhen Zhu, who felt a little guilty. The old lady was unhappy. The fourth granddaughter had just entered the capital, and the third girl glared at her. What did that mean? "Daughter-in-law, you have to learn the rules of the third girl."
Yu replied "yes". The old lady had disliked her since she was a child. This was the aftermath of the girl's conflict. However, her mother had passed away for so many years, and the old lady still disliked her because she looked like her mother.
The owner of the jewelry shop came and had complete sets of jewelry as well as single pieces.
Zhen Su said: "Fourth sister is the youngest, so she will choose first."
This is the apple of the grandmother's eye. When Mrs. Zhen San was less than one year old, she became pregnant again, so she was taken to the old lady to be raised. The second child was a boy. Mrs. Zhen San had to take care of her son, so Zhen Rong stayed by the old lady's side. It can be said that the old lady raised her with every drop of her shit and urine.
The old lady gave birth to three sons in a row. Although she had a daughter, she was not born from her womb. Therefore, she has a deep affection for this granddaughter whom she raised, and the love between grandma and granddaughter is as deep as that between mother and daughter.
Zhen Rong said, "Then I won't refuse." She picked and chose, and was not interested in the complete sets, which were mostly worn by girls who had reached the age of 15. She picked a few pieces of exquisite designs and then stopped. Zhen Su took a look and found that everything Zhen Rong picked was worth less than one hundred taels of silver. The pair of ruby hairpins was estimated to cost no less than six hundred taels of silver.
Yu hoped that the old lady would pay, but the old lady said, "Second girl, choose."
If she picked a bargain, it doesn't mean she has no taste. She could neither refuse nor be too greedy when she had the chance to get something for free. She picked a white jade bracelet with silver thread and a pair of white jade hairpins and stopped. They were worth about one thousand two taels of silver, comparable to the fourth girl's.
Zhen Rong immediately felt that such a discerning and elegant sister was of the same kind as her. Although the white jade was not mutton-fat white jade, its quality was quite rare. She wanted to pick it at that time, but she personally liked rubies more.
The old lady asked, "It seems from the post that you can bring someone with you, but you can only bring two people at most. Rong'er wants to go. When she arrives in the capital, she must make some friends among the boudoirs and handkerchief friends. Who will go, the eldest or the third lady?"
Yu wanted to say: The eldest girl's marriage is in sight, but this marriage will take Zhen Su away, so she cannot mention it. If Zhen Yuan knew about it, he would definitely scold her, and only this matter would count after it is done.
The third girl looked expectant, and the old lady said, "Let Zhen go, it's good for her to go out for a walk, I'll take them to have some fun tomorrow."
This is a flower-viewing party for young girls, why are you getting old?
Before the old lady said anything, Zhen Zhen stood up and selected a complete set of jewelry.
The old lady took a quick look and said, "Sisters all bought jewelry, Third girl, you choose."
The good ones are gone, what else is there to pick? The remaining styles are not worth much, let alone the old ones. The most expensive one is the jewelry selected by Zhen Zhen, sapphire jewelry. She can carry off this blue color, but with this appearance, not even Rong'er can match half of it.
The old lady said calmly, "My eldest daughter-in-law, ask the maid to take the shopkeeper to the public office to settle the accounts."
Why did the mansion have an affair?
