Beijing.
It had snowed heavily last night. When they got up this morning, the courtyard was covered in silver and white. A thin layer of snow covered the flower beds and the ground paved with green stone slabs.
Her aunt was awoken by a burst of bell-like laughter in the morning. She subconsciously pushed her husband beside her and found that he had already woken up and was on duty.
Yingying furrowed her delicate brows and sat up in her warm bed, stretching her waist. The charcoal fire was burning fiercely in the room, and the servant maids sleeping in the bedroom would add some beast gold charcoal every two hours.
This kind of charcoal did not have the smell of smoke when it was burned. Instead, it had the fresh air of pine branches.
This year’s winter was particularly cold. The eldest Princess empathized with the Hanlin Academy’s auspicious scholars for the new year and specially ordered people to send over thirty Jin of beast gold charcoal used by the palace. The princess of Lin an also empathized with the Shu ji shi’s cautious and conscientious work in the new year, and specially ordered people to send over thirty Jin of beast gold charcoal.
Thus, his aunt used this good thing that only the royal family could enjoy.
His aunt was very happy and praised Xu Erlang during dinner. After ten years of hard work, not only did he get the recognition of the chief Assistant, but the two princesses also valued him so much.
Second uncle laughed at his aunt for being too young. The things that the princess gave to the royal family were all about being legitimate. The Xu family only had one Erlang who was presentable.
The second son was just a tool for the two princesses to take care of the Xu family.
Of course, second uncle Xu would never tell his aunt about this.
“It’s so noisy …”
The beautiful woman was wearing a thin inner garment, her black hair messy. Coupled with her dazed expression, she actually had a bit of a young girl’s coquettishness.
Clang … The Auntie pushed the door open, and the cold wind blew in her face. She shivered, and the only nightgown she had left was gone.
However, the scene in front of her made her forget about the cold.
In the courtyard, two girls, one older and one younger, were rolling on the ground, leaving a trail of marks on the snow.
this is snow, ” Leena said. it’s the first time I’ve seen snow in my life.
“This is the first time I’ve seen snow in my life,” Xu linging said.
The two of them were covered in blood and foam, looking like two snowmen.
“Xu lingying!”
His aunt screamed.
In such cold weather, those who dared to play like this were either fools or did not want to live.
The little boy was shocked. He raised his little head and looked at his aunt, then said loudly,
“Not good, mother has discovered us. Let’s quickly leave.”
“Alright,” Leena quickly said.
Then, the two of them rolled far away.
Xu lingyue had woken up naturally and had heard her stupid sister and her stupid master’s argument outside, but she didn’t pay attention to them.
He was going to the Prince’s Mansion as a guest today to deal with the female guests, so he had to dress up well.
“Young miss, what clothes are suitable for you to wear to the Wang family today?” The maidservant tilted her head and pondered.
wear simple and elegant clothes. The Wang family is used to being rich. If we dress up gorgeously, they might laugh at us for being a show-off.
Xu lingyue was dressing up in front of the mirror. In the bronze mirror, the young girl had an oval face, big eyes, and three-dimensional features, exquisite and beautiful.
She was wearing a light blue Coat, a puffy dress, a brocade and fur cloak, and a pair of sheepskin boots embroidered with golden thread and clouds.
She didn’t appear to be gorgeously dressed, but also wore the temperament of a lady from a noble family.
“Bring the things with you.”
“Alright,” he said. The maidservant crisply replied.
She immediately left the room with the servant girl and had breakfast in the inner hall. At this time, Xu lingying had already changed into a clean set of clothes and taken a hot bath.
The little bean still had her usual child-like hairstyle, like two meat buns, but she wore a beautiful little dress and looked quite ladylike.
However, when she stood next to her beautiful sister, she could barely be called cute.
The aunt looked at the water clock in the hall and urged, ‘
“It’s time to set off. Erlang, remember to take care of your younger sisters. Lingyue, don’t always look like you can be bullied by anyone. You’re not representing yourself right now, you’re representing the Xu family.
“Lingying, don’t be a glutton when you reach the Wang family. Don’t mess around. Do you understand?”
It was a day off, and Xu Erlang was going to the Wang family to discuss matters with Chief Assistant Wang. He was going with his sisters.
The three siblings put down their bowls and chopsticks, rinsed their mouths with salt water, and left the Xu estate, boarding the carriage.
The coachman carefully and slowly walked on the ice-covered wet street.
It took half an hour to get from the Xu clan to the Wang clan, but because the road was slippery and difficult to walk on, it took an hour.
Xu Erlang jumped off the carriage and turned to help Xu lingyue get off the carriage. Xu lingying had already jumped down from the other side.
The three siblings were led by the steward into the depths of the palace.
In the bedroom, chief advisor Wang stood by the screen, and Madam Wang led the maidservants to change his clothes.
I remember simu said that the young lady of the Xu family is not to be trifled with. The eldest daughter-in-law is snobbish, and the second daughter-in-law is narrow-minded. When you see her later, you have to watch her from the side and don’t make things unpleasant.
Chief advisor Wang said.
“Their eye sockets aren’t that shallow, they know what to do.” Madam Wang said with a smile.
She was a little surprised that the old master was so concerned about these minor details.
“Old master, Lord Xu has arrived.” A servant stood outside the door and reported in a clear voice.
“Invite him to the study.”
Chief advisor Wang looked at himself in front of the bronze mirror and smoothed the folds of his clothes. He looked at Madam Wang and said, “”Have you prepared all the gifts?”
Madam Wang nodded with a smile.
In the inner hall, Wang si mu was holding a teacup and tasting the fragrant tea while listening to her two sisters-in-law’s endless nagging.
The eldest sister-in-law’s name was li xianghan. Her father was a Minister in the Ministry of Revenue. His position was not high, but it was linked to silver, so he was somewhat snobbish.
The second sister-in-law’s name was Zhao Yurong. Her father’s position was even lower, only the official Registrar of the court of judicial review..
