Halfway through the play, everyone was watching with great concentration. Jin Chao, however, was not interested in the drama. She picked up the pastry on the side and ate it. She went out in a hurry and didn't have time to eat anything. Now she was hungry. He thought the pastry tasted good and ate more of it. The pastry was a bit dry. Jin Chao picked up the blue and white teacup on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat. He didn't dare to move too much for fear of disturbing others watching the show.
After putting down the tea cup, Jin Chao took out the embroidered handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, then put it on the coffee table. She turned her head and saw someone looking at her with a smile on her face. It was Gu Jinhua. She smiled back, a little embarrassed that others were looking at her as she was devouring her food.
After the opera was sung, it was time to set the table. Only then did Gu Jinchao see his father. Together with Master Gu Er and Master Gu, the three brothers were talking and laughing and had no grudges. After the father came over, he first called Aunt Song over and whispered a few words to her. They both laughed. The father was handsome and Aunt Song was delicate. They were a perfect pair.
Aunt Song took out her brocade handkerchief and wiped the white frost on her father's eyebrows. Her father looked down at her and let her wipe it.
Gu Lian and Gu Lan were sitting together and said, "Your mother is so kind to your father"
The female family members in the room were silent for a moment. Gu Jinchaozheng was talking to Gu Jinhua, and his voice became softer. Gu Lian said the wrong thing, but Gu Lan had to step aside: "it's my biological mother, Aunt Song. My mother stayed at home due to illness and didn't come."
Gu Lian stuck out his tongue nonchalantly: "I saw it wrong!"
"Everyone's attitude towards Gu Lan is different. There is such a favored aunt and biological mother, and there is also a sick and frail mistress. She may turn into a legitimate daughter one day
The Gu family¡¯s banquet was very luxurious. Hot dishes, cold dishes, hot pot, fruit plates, and cakes were served slowly by the maids and wives, as if they were flowing water. After eating these, there were frozen pears and dried fruits, but Jin Chao had no appetite because he ate too many pastries, so he just ate some hot dishes and a fruit plate.
After leaving the banquet, the gentlemen naturally had other things to discuss, and the wife asked all the women to go to Xingxian. The garden there was full of plum blossoms, which were blooming very well. It had just snowed the night before yesterday, and now the sky was blue and empty. It was fun to set up a table in the yard.
Mrs. Tai asked her to bring the horse crane and dice to play with, but she went back first. Gu Jinhua and several visiting ladies, as well as Gu Jinxiao's wife, and the eldest young lady played horse crane together, while the second lady took a group of unmarried girls to work as prostitutes and talk tricks.
Gu Jinchao was sitting in the corner, holding a small piece of fabric and embroidering butterflies casually, stitch by stitch slowly, not in a hurry.
Before she finished embroidering a butterfly, she heard Gu Lian's voice: "Sister Lan, your lotus embroidery is so beautiful! It's light pink and white, just like the real thing! The dragonfly parked on it is also beautiful, The wings are actually transparent"
Gu Lan smiled sheepishly: "I just learned it casually from my mother. Sister Lian deserves a lot of praise."
Gu Lian smiled and said, "Don't be embarrassed. I'll show my mother whether the embroidery is very good" He took the embroidery cloth to show it to the second lady. The second lady was also amazed. For a while, everyone gathered around to see. They all applauded.
Gu Lan pushed her fallen hair to her cheeks, pursed her lips but couldn't help but smile: "My embroidery skills are nothing. Master Xue, who taught my eldest sister embroidery skills, was once a disciple of the Ji family of the Suzhou embroidery family. Yan I offered three hundred taels of silver to Wanxiu Pavilion in Beijing, but Master Xue didn¡¯t even go"
When Mo Xue heard this, her hands clenched. Gu Jinchao remained silent while looking at him, embroidering his own butterfly unhurriedly.
"This second young lady is too scheming. She knows that although the eldest lady learned from Master Xue, her embroidery is poor, but she still insists on talking about it, making it clear that she will make the eldest lady look embarrassed!"
Since Gu Lan said this, everyone naturally wanted to give her face, so the second lady turned her eyes to Gu Jinchao and said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of patterns we embroidered, sister Chao, but show it to us, so as to open our eyes!"
Gu Jinchao stood up unhurriedly and saluted: "I am disappointed with my second aunt. Although Jinchao learned from Master Xue, the embroidery skills he learned were not one thousandth as good as the master's. He was afraid of slandering Master Xue." I won¡¯t use it to show off my reputation.¡±
Gu Lan then explained: "I was negligent. Although our eldest sister is not good at embroidery, she is good at playing piano and chess. It may be that she spends too much time on this and does not practice embroidery often, so she is a bit rusty. Well" It sounded like he was defending her.
Gu Lian snorted: "What's the use of studying piano and chess for a girl in a boudoir? She's not a prostitute in Yangzhou Fireworks and Willow Lane. It's serious to learn from the female housekeeper well! I see, it's precisely because of this, My cousin, no one comes to propose marriage!"
Hearing this, twoThe lady had no choice but to scold her: "It's getting more and more outrageous! You haven't even got haircut yet, what a prostitute, where did you hear that!"
Gu Lian was rarely scolded by her mother. She looked at Gu Jinchao angrily and said, "That's how it is. She also beat their girl silly! Who dares to marry her back as a wife!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but Gu Jinchao asked with a smile: "Sister Lian, you said I beat my girl silly, who told you?"
Gu Lian was simple-minded and couldn't hide the matter at all, so she immediately said, "Sister Lan told me!"
"Then did she tell you why I hit this girl?" Gu Jinchao was approaching step by step. This Gu Lan was making irresponsible remarks to ruin her reputation. She just tolerated Gu Lian's provocation and mentioned the matter of leaving incense. , but I definitely can¡¯t bear it.
"Sheshe wants to save her sick brother, but you don't allow her to save" Gu Lian actually didn't hear clearly, and he hesitated when he spoke.
"Then let me tell you, her brother is not sick, but owes a large sum of money to the gambling house, and his leg was broken because he could not pay the debt. My girl did not tell me that I needed money when she came back, but directly She stole something from my dowry, and I didn't even have time to beat her. She scared herself crazy. Can you blame me for this?" Gu Jinchao smiled and said, "Sister Lian, you have to listen to what others say. Be careful."
"Thenthen you shouldn't kick her out of the house" Gu Lian still wanted to argue.
" Gu Jinchao didn't want to tell her anymore. How could a concubine who had never experienced anything in the world be so careless in what she said and did.
"If you forgive everyone who steals things, tell me, will they do it worse next time? If every girl and woman has learned the lesson, won't the whole house be emptied in an instant? I'll hurry up. She left without hurting her, which is the most benevolent thing."
"Sister Lan" Jin Chao said with a smile, "Don't accidentally misrepresent your sister's deeds next time. From this point of view, you don't know how much of the things outside are revealed. Although you don¡¯t like me very much, I am your sister after all, and my father¡¯s honor is yours. If you don¡¯t think about me, you have to think about my father, don¡¯t you think so?¡±
??The way everyone looked at Gu Lan was different for a moment. Gu Lan's face was ugly, and Gu Jinchao made a big deal out of it with just a few words. Not only did he abdicate the responsibility, but he also wanted to put all those things on her! Did she need to misrepresent what she had done? There was nothing good about it in the first place!
She bit her lower lip and looked at Gu Jinchao, with a low voice: "It's my sister who is wrong I just heard people say that. It's just that I have always liked the eldest sister. How could I misinform you about something?" I just said a few words casually to Sister Lian Don't worry about it, I I will apologize to you right now! Don't take it seriously!" He looked very weak and pitiful.
The second lady didn't want to cause any unpleasantness on this Chinese New Year day, so she smoothed things over: "Since it was unintentional, Sister Chao should forgive Sister Lan, after all, they are two sisters. I think Sister Chao's embroidery skills are good, and you He is good at piano skills, and his personality is complementary to that of one strong and one soft"
Jin Chao sat down and responded with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, Second Aunt. We are sisters and we have no grudges."
Although Gu Lan regained some face, she still had the reputation of being a gossip, and everyone looked at her with a bit of embarrassment. Aunt Song was playing tag with the Fifth Madam and others, and was unaware of the scene here. Gu Lan secretly thought that she had made a mistake. How did she know that Gu Lian was so out of control
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Gu Jinchao¡¯s words, but Gu Jinchao did not pursue us. Although he was angry, he did not get angry, and remained calm when he sat down, which made the second lady understand a little more. The rumors outside must be rumors deliberately amplified by someone with intentions
¡°No wonder she¡¯s angry. If she were slandered, she would be even more angry.
Gu Lian didn't know that she was in trouble, so she pouted and said, "Even if the girl's incident has nothing to do with herit's true that her embroidery skills are poor."
"Sister Lian, who's the embroiderer?" A smiling voice sounded, and the three of them stepped into the middle, but it was Gu Jinxiao, the eldest son of the Gu family, who spoke.
Gu Lian jumped up and walked towards them: "Brother is here? Didn't you go horse racing outside the city?"
Gu Jinxiao said: "Forget it, how could father allow us to go horse racing outside the city? I originally wanted to come to Hengxianju to play chess, but I didn't expect you to be here."
Gu Lian nodded and said: "We were just talking about embroidery skills. My eldest cousin's embroidery skills don't seem to be good!"
Ye Xian said casually: "I think her embroidery skills are pretty good."
Gu Lian was a little curious: "Cousin, have you ever seen your eldest cousin's female beauty?"
He slowly took out a light blue brocade handkerchief from his sleeve and said with a smile: "This brocade handkerchief belongs to your eldest cousin. The orchids on it are green and lifelike. There are also small seal poems embroidered on the side. ." Gu Jinchao's hand gently touched his sleeve, and then he remembered that his brocade handkerchief had just fallen where he was watching the theater. How did it end up in the hands of the Crown Prince Changxing! He actually took it out so openly!
The second lady¡¯s expression changed immediately, with a smile on her face: ¡°Let me see how it works.¡±
The handkerchief was handed to her hand, carrying the faint fragrance of orchid, which she had smelled on Jin Chao before.
Jin Chao has been growing orchids in her room recently. Not only is the room filled with orchid fragrance, but her body is also stained with it.

It was at a theater, how could it have ended up in the hands of the Crown Prince of Changxing! He actually took it out so openly!
