The days passed quickly, and it was the day of Fu Tianheng's birthday in a blink of an eye. Everyone in Fu's house, from the housekeeper to the maids, was busy making arrangements. Even Xi'er was called to help, leaving me alone in the room.
My mother sent my maid over very early in the morning and told me not to leave the boudoir if I had nothing to do, so as not to cause more trouble to the family.
It’s just a birthday, not a wedding, so it needs to be so grand! These ancient people were really particular about it, didn’t they know that it was a waste of time and money? Not to mention the cost of these lanterns, red paper couplets and so on, this
All the leftover dishes from the dinner had to be thrown away, and it also damaged the ecological environment. This reminded me of the central government’s call: strive to build a resource-saving, environment-friendly socialist society.
Of course, the ancients did not have such a high level of understanding. They only knew how to reciprocate with courtesy, and took the opportunity of birthday celebrations to communicate with officials in the DPRK and China, laying the foundation for the use of interpersonal relationships in the future. It is best to do business for yourself by the way.
Get rich, get married, etc.
Boring! The most painful thing in ancient times is to kill time. I used to be in the dormitory, turn on the TV, turn on the computer, and the day would just go by. It’s nice here, with good food, good clothes, and many handsome guys.
The only flaw is that there is so much time! It took me a lot of effort to figure out what points these things in Mao Shi Xu Shi correspond to in modern times.
I lay on the bed and picked up a book. My mother gave it to me a few days ago. She asked me to read it carefully. She said it was some etiquette knowledge that my daughter’s family must know. It’s a pity, this tadpole article knows me, and I
I don’t know it. Fortunately, there is a saying in ancient times that excuses me: A woman’s lack of talent is virtuous. If she can be virtuous, I will be satisfied.
I remember that I was also good at handwriting back then, but it was a pity that the hero had no place to show his talents, and I was exhausted. I sighed silently.
Suddenly, a voice brought me back to reality: "Miss, I am Master Liu. I have already made the clothes you want. I hope you can take a look."
"Not bad, not bad." The cheongsam was very well made at first glance. I laid it out on the bed and looked at it for a long time, but I couldn't find even a thread. I looked at Master Liu appreciatively and saw that he was indeed a first-rate master. He was much better than me.
Got the effect I expected.
Satisfied, I took out a silver ingot and rewarded it to him.
Looking at his greedy look, I couldn't help joking: "Hey, Master Liu, don't smile so hard from ear to ear!"...
It's strange, I haven't seen my eldest brother in the past half day, hey... never mind! However, I guess the busiest person at the moment is that woman Fu Meijiao, hahaha, thinking of this, I burst out laughing unknowingly.
"Miss, why are you laughing alone?" Xi'er came in and looked at me strangely.
"Haha, it's nothing. I remembered something funny. By the way, how are the preparations going outside?"
"Well, the guests are gradually coming to wish me a birthday, and I am very happy. Miss, madam asked me to change my clothes and go out to pay my respects to him later."
"I got it." Don't I have to work hard to think of some nice words? So, I sent Xi'er away in a depressed tone, and thought hard in the room alone for a while.
"Miss, the time has come. Madam asked you to hurry up to the hall." Xi'er almost rushed in.
This girl arrived just in time. I had just packed my clothes and was ready to go. I stood up and waited for Xi'er to help me out.
"Wow... Miss, your clothes and your hair?" Xi'er's mouth opened into an O shape.
Haha~ This first audience performed well. I watched Xi'er's reaction happily, as if he was accepting the test results.
"Miss, it's strange that you are dressed like this, but you are so special and beautiful. Also, your hairstyle is so beautiful."
I glanced at her impatiently. It was nonsense. Although it was said to be a dress from the 1930s, it was still quite trendy in this shabby place thousands of years ago. As for the hairstyle, it was actually
It's just a flower with a pin attached to it. It's not a bit of personality in modern times.
I put my hand on Xi'er's hand and walked slowly to the front of the hall. It's not difficult for me to pretend to be a lady!
As soon as I stepped across the threshold of the hall, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and all eyes were directed at me. Under everyone's intense gaze, I walked towards Fu Tianheng, who was sitting in the middle, with a smile, and bowed: "
Dad, my daughter has come to wish you a happy birthday. I wish you that your life will be as long as the moon, as high as the sun, as long as the Southern Mountains, and as long as the pines and cypresses. May everything be as long as yours."
Fu Tianheng's eyes were full of surprise and he smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, okay. Yan'er, be good, go sit down at your mother's place."
Haha... The feeling of being watched by thousands of people is nothing more than this. Two words: It feels so good! Of course, I did not ignore Er Niang's jealous eyes. Today is also a happy day, and I am too lazy to meet her in the same way. She must be
My daughter Fu Meijiao didn't perform so well, she must have been very angry.
At this time, I started to look at these birthday congratulators. There were so many people. There were many tables and chairs in the hall, and it was dark and full of people. They were all wearing gorgeous clothes and smiling grandly. In my eyes,
Just like a bunch of clowns, they look extremely superficial and ridiculous.
I looked around for a week, wondering, there were so many guests, why didn’t I see the big brother coming out to say hello?!
I sat quietly for about half an hour, thinking about my worries. Finally, I couldn't stand their show-off and hypocrisy, which made me want to vomit. So, I found an excuse and slipped out with Xi'er.
.
"Miss, you look unhappy?" Xi'er asked with concern.
"No, it's just that there were too many people, which made me a little upset." I have always hated acting, and having to face so many people made me feel sick.
"Hey, miss, look towards the garden. Isn't that the young master?"
I followed the direction Xi'er pointed, and it turned out to be the eldest brother. He was standing under the rockery facing us, and there were several others beside him. They were too far away to see who they were. Although it was in ancient times, I was very sad to find:
I'm still a little short-sighted.
I rushed over immediately, "Brother, why are you here? Yan'er hasn't seen you for several days. I miss you so much." I happily took Fu Luoli's arm.
Huh? Fu Meijiao is actually here too?! No wonder I only saw her mother and not her just now.
Well? Song Yufeng? The evil man, and that General Zhou, why are they all gathered here?
"Yan'er, why are you dressed like this?"
I looked at this group of people with disdain and fully accepted the stunning looks they cast. Some were admiring, some were incredulous. Hey, shall I surprise you?! My inner sense of accomplishment almost swelled.
Fu Meijiao was the only one who looked at me resentfully. She was wearing a long pink dress underneath and a transparent gauze shirt outside. Her face looked particularly cute and rosy. It seemed that she had been dressed up carefully. At this moment,
It must be very frustrating to see me stealing the limelight.
"I'm very satisfied with your stunning eyes, but it doesn't need to last so long, right?" If I kept staring, I would get goosebumps all over my body, so I broke the silence and raised the corners of my mouth proudly.
"Miss Fu is really different today, I can't help but marvel!" The evil man looked at me meaningfully, with a brief tenderness flashing in his eyes, and a playful evil smile on his lips.
I was too lazy to pay attention to him, and looked straight at Song Yufeng, the man who had embarrassed me and made me lose face.
He looked at me without saying a word, half-smiling but not smiling, acting very naturally, as if he could see every move I made.
What are four grown men and one woman doing here? I looked around and saw no entertainment tools. Did the ancients also like pure chats or heart-to-heart conversations?!
"Sister, are you dressed like this today because you knew Mr. Song was coming?" Fu Meijiao stood next to Song Yufeng with a charming smile on her face.
This damn woman, thanks to me and him having the same father, why are you always making fun of me and laughing at my jokes in front of outsiders? I looked at her with no expression on my face. Silence is golden, I am not willing to waste my saliva.
"Oh, brother, have you noticed that your sister has lost a lot of weight since she was hit by a carriage that time?" After saying that, Fu Meijiao looked at Song Yufeng deliberately and suddenly became very shy.
"I've lost weight. With a sister like you who slanders me in front of outsiders all day long, how can I not be angry about losing weight? It's all thanks to you!" I paused, "It's okay if you like others.
, do you need me to be your foil? Sister, let me tell you about men." At this point, I deliberately looked at the expressions of the four men in front of me.
The four men did not hide their inner anger at all. Their faces were bruised and white, and they all frowned and stared at me with wide eyes. It was obvious at a glance that the self-esteem of men was hurt!
At this point, I no longer care whether the person next to me is my eldest brother or not, I just cursed him in one breath: "You four arrogant guys, don't think that just because you are handsome, women will follow you and fall at your feet. You are too naive."
"You are not the only male animals in this world who are superior. Let me tell you, I don't care about you!" I glanced at them one by one with contempt, waiting for the bomb to explode.
"Very good, then why did you write a love poem to Mr. Song in the first place?" Fu Meijiao said aggressively.
Damn girl, you are going to piss me off to death. The protagonist who was scolded has no complaints at all. What kind of truth is this? You pig will fight for them instead?!
"Have I ever written?/You are wrong. I, Qian Meiyan, don't even bother to do such stupid things. In fact, I just see my sister suffering from lovesickness, and I want to do a favor to help my sister. These kind of things, they are actually
Miss, I'm not interested at all. I'm too lazy to ask for it." I regretted it as soon as I finished saying it. I noticed that Song Yufeng looked defeated and looked extremely lonely. The evil man half-squinted his eyes and looked at me coldly.
.That General Zhou is even more terrifying. He clenched his fists. I suspected that he was going to beat me. Even my dearest eldest brother was staring at me now.
Sigh... Then I remembered a sentence from Sun Tzu's Art of War: The time, place, and people are favorable. In this feudal patriarchal society, there are none of the three things, and I am definitely the one who will suffer! I turned away and stuck out my tongue in annoyance, only to blame
I am too impulsive!
"Master, Miss, what are you doing here? The dinner party has started. I want you to go and entertain the guests as soon as possible." Zhang Ma stood in the corridor and shouted to us urgently.
The savior is here!
"You can stay here if you like, I'm leaving first." I hurriedly said this sentence, wishing I could grease my feet and escape the scene of the disaster quickly.
Plop... Oh my god, I accidentally stepped on the hem of the skirt and made close contact with the ground. After all, it's all Master Liu's fault. Why is the skirt so long? I'm not a three-inch golden lotus.
You didn't mean to throw me to death.
"Ouch, it hurts me so much, Mom." I sat on the ground, hugging my ankles and yelling.
Hearing the cry, Xi'er hurriedly chased after her: "Miss, where did you fall? Does it matter? Let me have a look?"
At this time, I discovered that there were five pairs of feet under my eyes.
"Miss Fu, this is retribution." The evil man stood aside and gloated.
"Yan'er, where are you injured?" Yeah? Why did Song Feng call me Yan'er? Didn't I call me Mei Yan before? I looked at him blankly, feeling strange.
"Yan'er, why are you so dazed? Is there nothing wrong?"
"Hey, are you mistaken, Fu Luoli, I'm your biological sister. Who said it's okay? It hurts me to death. Wu... Wu... you don't even care about me?!" I said to Fu Luo angrily.
Li glanced at me, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze out a few tears. Humph, who made you not help me just now? This is your retribution.
Seeing me crying, Fu Luoli quickly took me back to her boudoir. Before leaving, she asked Fu Meijiao to entertain Song Yufeng and the others well.
