Queen's Handbook

Chapter 21 Invitation


"Put it all away." Su Yunfei said to Taoyao.

Tao Yao nodded, she was very happy, the young lady also had her own money, so she would not have to look at the kitchen to live in the future.

Su Yunfei sat back on the kang with a lot of thoughts, and re-evaluated Lin Jingru's weight in Su Yongchang's heart.

Only after thinking for a while, Taoyao ran in mysteriously, with a smile on her face: "Miss, I have your invitation card." While handing it to Su Yunfei, she stepped forward and said softly: "Slave maid Aunt Lin was grounded for three days after listening to a few wives talking outside, it seems that the master is very angry today, and I went to Aunt Wu for lunch."

In the past, if Su Yongchang went back to the backyard, he would eat in Hengwu Courtyard.

It seems that Aunt Lin is not that important, at least in Su Yongchang's eyes, the rules that are not set by him are important.

Su Yunfei's mood brightened immediately, and she took the post with a smile, but frowned when she saw the big gilt characters on it.

The one who invited her was Dingguo Duke's Mansion, her maternal ancestral home.

If the person who received the invitation at this time was the real Su Yunfei, she would be very happy.

In the past ten years, the original owner's comfortable and stable life was almost always in Dingguo's mansion.But after she was eight years old, Dingguo's mansion never sent anyone to pick her up again, and even though they had not broken off contact with the prime minister's mansion, they were not as close as normal in-laws.

In the past two years, Su Yunfei was still able to meet people from Dingguo's mansion at some banquets, but she often couldn't speak a few words, and would be teased and made a fool of herself, so that she was not forced to apologize, To be ridiculed and ridiculed.Once, she was even almost pushed into the lake. Although she managed to escape by grabbing an old tree by the lake, she fell down in embarrassment and scratched her skirt.

Since then, the heroine has become more submissive, even if there is a banquet, she only dares to hide in the corner, afraid of seeing people and even more afraid of making a fool of herself, but she still cannot avoid being tricked by someone with a heart.

As time went by, the young ladies of the Duke's Mansion also looked down on this cousin more and more, and they were unwilling to get in touch with her, so as not to be involved in making a fool of themselves together.

How could someone like Su Yongchang who cherishes his feathers allow his daughter to keep humiliating him outside.Lin Jingru suggested at this time that she should be restrained in the Linjing Garden in the name of self-cultivation, which is called learning the rules.

Su Yongchang naturally readily agreed, and handed over the matter to Lin Jingru.

In fact, Lin Jingru never really invited anyone to teach him anything, but he often punished her for starvation and copying books to practice calligraphy in the name of not learning well or doing wrong.

So Su Yunfei's life became more and more difficult, just because whether she did well or not, with Lin Jingru, it was all determined by her mood.As a result, she became more and more timid and cowardly.

And all of this is thanks to Lin's mother and daughter. In order to let Su Yunxi take the limelight, she attended the banquet of the noble daughters of the capital alone as the lady of the prime minister's mansion. Some embarrassing noble ladies spared no effort to trouble her, make her look ugly, and finally became the laughing stock of the noble ladies circle in Kyoto.

As for justification?

The former Su Yunfei naturally defended herself, but with the help of Lin Jingru who pretended to be gentle and caring, all her defenses turned into sophistry in Su Yongchang's eyes. In the end, she only got more severe reprimands and punishments.

Later, she didn't dare to speak anymore, and she always looked like a doormat all day long, and she was more and more disgusted and disgusted.

But at this time, Dingguo's mansion, which had not been in touch for a long time, suddenly sent someone to send her a post.

This made her a bit confused for a while, and she also couldn't figure out why Dingguo's estrangement from her back then was out of a protective mentality. They wanted to use this indifference to dispel those things, and wanted to make fun of her by humiliating her. The idea of ​​the people in Dingguo's mansion, or something else.

However, when soldiers came to block them, and water came to cover them, Su Yunfei didn't pay much attention to this matter.What's more, the post said that it was the sixth day of the next month, and she was invited to participate in the poetry meeting held by Miss Dingguo's mansion.It's only eighteen now, and there are still more than half a month until the sixth day of next month.

These are not the most important things to her right now.

The most important thing for her now is to find a way to make money, and she doesn't want to be stretched to do anything, she just depends on people's faces.

Asking Taoyao to put away the post and put it away, she began to think about how to make money.

Although she has 200 silver now, but if she really wants to do something, it is still not enough.

After thinking about it, she had an idea in her mind, so she called Tao Yao over and asked, "I remember you said last time that you have a third brother? Did you walk outside?"

Tao Yao didn't know why Su Yunfei asked this suddenly, she thought she remembered the porridge last time, so she knelt down and said obediently: "Yes, yes."

"I want to ask him to help me with some things. I don't know if it's convenient or not?" Su Yunfei asked tentatively. After all, she didn't know what Taoyao, the third brother, did or how capable she was, but right now She really couldn't find anyone she could use, so she could only pin her hope on Tao Yao for the time being.

Tao Yao was very surprised, didn't she want to blame her?At the same time, he was also very pleasantly surprised, and said with a little excitement: "It is my honor to be able to do things for Miss."

Su Yunfei walked to the desk and made a list.This ink, paper and inkstone was asked for just now, Tong Guan sent her only clothes and jewelry in addition to money, it seemed that she still felt that this young lady would not be able to learn to read and write.

"You take 80 taels of silver and give it to your third brother, and ask him to help me buy the items on the list." Su Yunfei handed the list to Taoyao, and said: "Please ask him to help me with the rest of the silver. Pay attention to shops with a reasonable price, if there is a cosmetic shop that is not well managed, it would be the best, if not, then rent a shop of a normal size, but the location should be in a place where the maids of big families often go."

Tao Yao nodded her head one by one.

In the evening, Tao Yao mysteriously entered the room carrying a small package: "Miss, everything you asked for has arrived."

"Take it to the Xici room." Su Yunfei said, and she also walked to the Xici room.

In the afternoon, she asked someone to tidy up the Xici Room, leaving only a few chairs, two long tables, and a dressing table.

At this time, she was instructing Taoyao to arrange the things in the small bundle by category.

Tao Yao looked surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Miss, what do you buy bamboo charcoal for?"
