Chapter 63: Let's Talk
"Miss, if you're sleepy, let's go a little later, right? We won't be in a hurry to go out after you take a nap, right?" Hua Chan looked at the yawning Jiang Ruohua with some worry.
"nothing."
Jiang Ruohua rubbed his eyes, yawned, washed his face with water, and after feeling refreshed, he said, "Let's dress up."
Hua Chan held a comb in her hand. To be honest, she felt a little sleepy today. She yawned and combed Jiang Ruohua's hair. Three thousand black hair was half rolled up and fixed with an enamel vase hairpin, with a hairpin inserted into it. The two peonies that had just bloomed this morning were eye-catching in red and pink. They also tied two small velvet flowers as a foil, put on pearl earrings, and lightly licked some rouge. The bright beauty looked towards the peonies in full bloom and disappeared. Enchanting, only noble.
"Miss, you still look best like this." Hua Chan said with a smile, "In the past, the slaves and slaves given by the Third Madam have all been put away. Our lady is still most suitable for dressing up like this. You can tell at a glance that she is the Duke of the country. The lady of the house.”
Jiang Ruohua smiled. It was really not suitable for her to dress too elegantly. Besides, she had to get such good things every year. It would be a pity not to wear them. The third lady asked her to keep a low profile. People who claim to be princesses can't dress up. If you are too flamboyant, only those who suddenly become rich will dress up and show off their teeth and claws.
But now I think about it, considering her status, these outfits are not too much. On the contrary, they are deliberately dressed up to make people feel that they are not worthy of the stage. Especially after becoming the Princess of Ying, she should behave as a princess. Regulations, what clothes should go with what jewelry, cannot be overstepped, but the dignity of being a princess must not be lost.
She was dressed plainly and couldn't stand on the stage anymore. Jiang Ruoting shone even more under her background. The same simple and plain jewelry was just right on Jiang Ruoting of Xiaojiabiyu.
I don’t think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the more unlucky I feel.
After packing up neatly, I left the house and got on the carriage. The first place I went to was not the dazzling shops on the street. Instead, I took a different route and went to Liu Mansion first.
"Sister Liu."
Jiang Ruohua poked her head out of the carriage and greeted Liu Xiyun who was standing in front of the door.
"Sister Jiang." Liu Xiyun smiled and led the girl towards the carriage of Jiang Mansion. A servant helped her get on the carriage. After she came in, she sat next to Jiang Ruohua, "I've been feeling bored these days. I was in a panic, but it turned out that they were either busy or not free. Fortunately, Sister Jiang was going out, so she asked me to come and have a look. "
Jiang Ruohua chuckled lightly and signaled Hua Chan to serve the tea. The Jiang family's carriage was spacious and stable, and there was a small table in the middle for tea and snacks.
"Originally, I wanted to call the second sister to join me." Jiang Ruohua motioned for her to drink tea, "Unfortunately, today the wife has to check the homework of several sisters. It is a pity that she can't go out. Since she happens to have time with Sister Liu, she still has to trouble Sister Liu today. Come pick some things with me, and then choose some gadgets for your sister at home."
"Sister Jiang, don't be polite to me." Liu Xiyun drank her tea and fanned gently. "I just can't be idle. If Sister Jiang has more leisure, we can go out for more walks in the future. I I heard that a theater has opened on West Third Street, and it sings all new songs. Let’s go and listen to it together when we have some free time after shopping.”
"Of course that's good!" Jiang Ruohua nodded, "If it sounds good, we can go together when the Xie sisters are free."
Liu Xiyun was very interested along the way. When she received the invitation yesterday, she hurriedly asked if Jiang Ruohua was going out in the next few days. After receiving Hua Chan's approval, she happily made an appointment to go out together. She heard that they were going to the horse farm in Zhuangzili. Liu Xiyun was really excited about playing, and went to get two pieces of cloth to cut an equestrian outfit. When Mrs. Liu found out, she couldn't laugh or cry.
"I don't know how to ride a horse, but I am active in tailoring clothes. Princess Shangyang is also going that day. You can't break the rules just to have fun!"
Liu Xiyun imitated Mrs. Liu's speech, and she did so well. Jiang Ruohua and several servants in the carriage couldn't help laughing. Jiang Ruohua said: "If you are interested in riding horses, I can teach you. There are good horses trained by horse trainers at the horse farm." Horse, would you like to choose a tame one?"
"Okay!" Liu Xiyun became interested as soon as she heard this, "Sister Jiang, it turns out she can also do equestrian skills? I never knew about this before. You hid it so well!"
"You must not be coquettish when you are taught at home, and besides, I am really embarrassed to show off my talents to others like that." Jiang Ruohua gave a random reason and blushed slightly, "If it gets smashed, it would be a bit embarrassing. "
Liu Xiyun swallowed the snack in her mouth and sighed: "My mother also taught me this all the time. Seeing how you were in the past, I'm afraid if you become a princess, you have to be more dignified and not arrogant. It's okay. My family and my aunt didn’t even mention the marriage, and I didn’t want to marry my cousin, the King of Yue, and become the princess.”
"In that case, you still want to congratulate me. Now I don't have to be a princess." Jiang Ruohua joked with her, "Don't tell me, I feel really relaxed."
Looking at each other, the two couldn't help but smile. Liu Xiyun leaned in the carriage and said: "Actually... when I saw you for the first time, I was still wondering why I brought you with me... I'm sorry, I was really mean to you at that time. The thing is that we don’t even understand it at all. We have also advised Sister Jiang not to waste time on you, especially since you are from such a good family background, but you are so focused on King Ying. Logically speaking, you don’t have to be like this. It should be His Highness King Ying. Relying on the power of your family, Zhao Yuexi sees you like a mouse sees a cat..."
At this point, Liu Xiyun seemed to feel that this was too straightforward. She lowered her head slightly and said, "I'm sorry, but you can get away from it. Now I am really happy for you."
Jiang Ruohua smiled and laughed off what Liu Xiyun said. After all, it was something that really happened to her. She calmly and calmly talked about the past and said: "Thank you sister, actually... the world gave me this kindness. Thinking that my father had no heirs, if I were the wife of the royal family, it would also be a recognition of the Jiang family. Unfortunately, I was young at the time and my view was too one-sided. I only thought that King Ying was the same age as me among the princes. Similar, but extremely excellent.”
"His excellence may allow the Jiang family to make further contributions to the Qi Dynasty." Although he no longer cares about the past, things that need to be explained still need to be explained clearly. Jiang Ruohua said eloquently, "And I am the Duke of the country. As a young lady from the palace, she is also a princess given by the Holy Spirit. It is her duty to plan for the royal family and my mother’s family. And as a royal wife, I will only indulge in some little people. If it goes against my face, how can I be able to take on the role of a woman in the world? The name of a model?”
"After all, she is pursuing her career in her position. As a quasi-princess, her words and deeds must be worthy of her reputation and status. As for Miss Zhao, she admires the prince as much as she loves him. What does it matter to me? I She wants my princess’s dignity and her favor. Although she behaves inappropriately, the prince is willing to change for the better.”
