Nangong Yue read the post at a glance, put her hands together, and gently rubbed the lines on the post. This post was sent by Jiang Yixi, the eldest girl of the Duke's Mansion, saying that she would come to visit her in three days. Nangong Yue guessed that her visit this time was probably because the medicine she prescribed to Mrs. En Guo last time worked.
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Yimei, change my clothes for me. Let's go to Rong'an Hall."
Yimei agreed softly, and changed into a pink dress to serve Nangong Yue. Her dark hair was wrapped with silk ribbons and a pink silk flower was tied in it, making her look more elegant and lively than usual.
In this way, Nangong Yue took Yimei to the East Room of Rongan Hall to meet Su.
Ms. Su was sitting on the Arhat bed by the window with her eyes closed and meditating. She was wearing an autumn-colored fringed jacket with crane patterns, and a green emerald hairpin with excellent water quality inserted into her silver-gray hair. She looked very solemn.
Nangong Yue saluted gracefully: "Greetings to grandma."
Before the morning and dusk were settled, Mrs. Su asked with some confusion: "Sister Yue, why are you here at this time?"
Nangong Yue replied with a respectful look: "I was about to report to my grandmother that Miss Jiang from the Duke of Enguo's Mansion sent a greeting note to my granddaughter."
The Duke of Enguo?
That’s the queen’s mother’s house!
Su sat up straight. The post she sent to the flower party last time had surprised her. She didn't expect that Miss Jiang would send a greeting post to Sister Yue today.
At this time, Mrs. Su was truly surprised. She had heard that although Miss Jiang was courteous and courteous to others and had the demeanor of a daughter of a famous family, she rarely took the initiative to pay respects to others or go to other people's houses. As a guest. I didn't expect that Sister Yue would be able to make friends with Miss Jiang and let her visit her.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Su couldn't help but feel a little pleased. It seemed that Sister Yue had made much progress in dealing with people.
Su's smile became kind and she said, "You little sisters, please handle matters between yourselves. If there is anything needed, just tell your eldest aunt and let her prepare it for you."
Nangong Yue got Su's promise and bowed before resigning.
After leaving Rong'an Hall, Nangong Yue went back to Nangong Cheng's Wanqing Courtyard.
Nangong Cheng came out quickly. She was wearing a waist-pinching red dress, which made her figure more and more exquisite. Her skin was like a piece of fine jade, exuding a radiant luster.
"Third sister, you are such a rare guest." Nangong Cheng took Nangong Yue's little hand, deliberately using a slightly naughty tone to show their closeness.
"Sister, if you say that, I will bother you every day from now on."
Nangong Yue followed Nangong Cheng into the house. As the eldest daughter in the family, Nangong Cheng's boudoir furnishings are naturally unusual. The wardrobes, tables and chairs carved from fine rosewood are exquisitely carved with delicate patterns, and the gentle and elegant style of her daughter's family is everywhere. It seems that there is an elegantly carved pear-shaped guqin stand next to the window lattice, and on it is a long guqin.
Going around the jade bamboo screen is the dressing table for all the daughters in the boudoir. On it are a diamond-shaped bronze mirror covered with brocade and a jewelry box with red lacquer and carved plum blossoms. The jewelry box is also inlaid with warm rubies. Every object in this house is of great value, which shows how much Nangong Cheng is loved by the Su family and the Zhao family.
Nangong Yue sat on the sandalwood chair with an indifferent expression. She had been the queen in her previous life and had seen more luxurious furnishings than these. Now that she saw these, she naturally would not be moved at all.
After a while, Shuxiang served tea.
Nangong Yue picked up the white porcelain tea cup and took a sip, then she explained her purpose: "Sister, I came here today to ask for something."
"Third sister, why are you so polite? If you have any questions, just ask." Nangong Cheng agreed, showing the demeanor of an eldest sister.
"Miss Jiang from Duke Enguo's Mansion sent a greeting card today. Grandma has agreed to let me entertain Miss Jiang in the Mozhu Courtyard in three days. I will also ask my eldest sister to help entertain one or two." Nangong Yue requested earnestly.
Nangong Cheng showed a gentle smile on his face and said, "Don't worry, third sister, I will definitely go there then."
She stood up and took out a set of rare luminous cups, and said, "Third sister, when the time comes, I will bring this set of luminous cups and the home-brewed wine to entertain Miss Jiang. What do you think?"
The luminous cup is made of rare dark green jade, which is rare. What’s more, Nangong Cheng’s set has a delicate texture, with alternating shades of green intertwined with translucent patterns. It is very unique and practical. It is the best.
Nangong Yue pursed her lips and smiled softly: "If eldest sister is not afraid of bumping this valuable set of luminous cups, of course I will not object."
"Look what you said, it's just a set of cups, so of course you have to put it to its fullest use." Nangong Cheng said with a smile.
The two talked for a while, and then Nangong Yue stood up and left.
……
Three days passed in a flash. It was a great day, with bright sunshine and clear blue sky.
Jiang Yixi came to visit as promised. Nangong Yue got the news and waited at the second door specially.
After a while, an exquisite carriage was guided by the servants of the mansion and stopped at the second gate. The first to get off was a maid of about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a light blue skirt and two combs. With her bun in her bun and her eyes lowered, she looked very calm. The maid in blue adjusted her footrest, then stretched out her hand to lift the curtain. Jiang Yixi gracefully got out of the carriage with her help.
Jiang Yixi is wearing a goose-yellow wide-sleeved skirt, with a double-balanced rose skirt and jade beads hanging on her waist. A luan bird in her hair is swaying as she walks, with tassels swaying lightly, and the light shines as she walks. , very touching.
She smiled slightly, with a small pear dimple at the corner of her mouth, and said, "Miss Nangong, it's been a long time since we last saw each other."
Nangong Yue greeted him with a smile, "Miss Jiang, please come in quickly."
The two of them talked and laughed as they walked through the verandas, rockeries, and courtyards. The scenery they saw was deep, beautiful, and yet solemn. Jiang Yixi praised her repeatedly: "As expected of a century-old family, I have never seen such an elegant courtyard in the royal capital. I’ve seen a few!”
Nangong Yue smiled slightly and said, "Everyone in the capital has their own preferences and characteristics. There is no distinction between them!" Although he was modest, Nangong Yue did not deny Jiang Yixi's praise.
Jiang Yixi followed Nangong Yue all the way to Mozhu Courtyard and entered the house.
Nangong Yue's house has a three-entry layout, and the small hall for entertaining guests is separated by a rosewood inlaid bird embroidery screen. Although the furnishings are not necessarily very gorgeous, and the ornaments on the Duobao grid are just ordinary porcelain, jade, wood carvings, etc., they give people a sense of elegance and simplicity. A large splash-ink landscape painting hangs on the wall, taking up most of the wall. Looking at it makes people feel suddenly enlightened. The three-legged incense burner with carved sapphire dragon buttons on the table is burning with a faint sweet fragrance, and it is full of freshness and mellowness. The fragrance is also something I have never smelled before. Among the furnishings in the house, only this incense burner is extraordinary.
Jiang Yixi only felt that the third girl from the Nangong family had unique tastes and was not like an ordinary girl's boudoir.
Nangong Yue smiled and greeted Jiang Yixi to sit down. Jiang Yixi took an exquisite small square basket made of purple bamboo from the maid behind him: "Miss Nangong, this is a pastry made by me. Although the taste is mediocre, it is delicious. I thought about it and it made me laugh."
"Thank you, Miss Jiang." Nangong Yue took the small basket with a smile, and then laughed, "Look at us girls coming and going, we are very unfamiliar. Sister Xi, can you allow me to call you? Sister?"
"Then I'll ask you to call you Sister Yue." Jiang Yixi hurriedly agreed and said in a sincere tone, "Sister Yue, if it weren't for your recipe, my grandmother would have suffered so much. I don't know either. How can I express my gratitude to my sister? I can only make these snacks by myself."
Since the two became sisters, the atmosphere became much harmonious, and they chatted about each other's daily hobbies.
After chatting for a while, Nangong Yue noticed that although the makeup on Jiang Yixi's face was exquisite, the area blocked by the bangs was a bit unnatural. She took a closer look and found a small acne under Jiang Yixi's bangs.
"Sister Xi, please wait here." Nangong Yue stood up, leaned behind her, and walked to her bedroom.
"Sister Yue, please help yourself." Jiang Yixi only thought that Nangong Yue was going to change clothes and didn't care.
Nangong Yue took a small porcelain box with a pattern of intertwined blue flower branches from the dressing table in the bedroom, returned to the small hall, and handed the porcelain box to Jiang Yixi.
"What is this?" Jiang Yixi was a little curious. She carefully opened the lid and saw that the light green paste in the box was delicate and refreshing. The light aroma was like lily, or like adding some mint, which was very pleasant. people.
"Sister Xi, this is my homemade ointment. It is quite effective in clearing fire and removing dryness." Nangong Yue said.
Jiang Yixi looked at Nangong Yue with some surprise, subconsciously stroked her bangs, then smiled and took them away generously. "Then I'd like to thank my sister."
Quie'er and Huamei served tea, fruits and snacks, and Yimei came over to report: "Third girl, the eldest girl is here."
Nangong Cheng's smiling voice came from outside the door: "Sister Xi, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you didn't even say a word to me when you came to the house!" There was a hint of affection in her tone.
Although Nangong Cheng and Jiang Yixi have not known each other for a long time, they have similar interests and have been on good terms since they met at the Duke of Enguo's mansion.
Jiang Yixi stood up quickly, obviously very happy: "Sister Cheng, long time no see. We will meet up soon."
"If Sister Yue hadn't invited me over, how would you have remembered me!" Nangong Cheng walked over with a bright smile. When he got closer, he ordered the two maids behind him, "Put away the fragrance of books and ink carefully."
"Yes, big girl." Shuxiang and Moxiang gently placed the luminous cup and wine on the table.
Nangong Cheng personally held the pot and poured three glasses: "Try the wine I made and see if you like it."
"Grape wine luminous cup." Jiang Yixi held up the luminous cup with appreciation.
The three girls talked about the topic of their daughter's boudoir all afternoon, and it was not until evening that Jiang Yixi reluctantly left.
