Chapter 291 Country bumpkin

One second ago, the eldest girl of the Hou Mansion went out to greet Miss Fifth, and the scene was harmonious and peaceful; the next second the atmosphere changed, and several beautiful young girls burst out from the corner door of the Hou Mansion, followed by After these old maids and maids came out, the atmosphere became strange.

"But the fifth sister is looking forward to it. Grandma still talks about the fifth sister during lunch. It makes us sisters wait."

A burst of laughter like silver bells came from this group of beautiful girls.

A young girl about fifteen or sixteen years old came first. The girl combed a bun of birds facing the phoenix. A phoenix hairpin was inserted on her head, and a lock of hair was left around her cheeks. Wearing a gold and jade necklace, a pair of skirts and a sable cloak, and a jingle ring around his waist, he looks noble and elegant, and Guazi's face is full of enthusiasm.

The girl just came out of the side door, and even Li Shu didn't see her, and the greetings and laughter like silver bells came out.

Zhu Ping'an just slightly raised his head to look at the girl, then curled his lips, so fake.

"Grandpa, this is the second young lady of the Hou family, the daughter of the uncle's family, and is very much loved by the old lady."

An old woman behind Zhu Pingan reminded in a low voice behind Zhu Pingan that this is one of the old women brought by Li Shu. She will come to the Hou Mansion to give gifts during the holidays. She is familiar with the situation of the Hou Mansion, so she was picked by Li Shu Bring the capital.

"Five sisters, let my sister really think about it, but I want to tell my sister about the rare things in the countryside. I heard that this year the snow will fall, and the harvest may be good, hehe"

At this time, there was another narrow and coquettish laugh, and then I saw another lady of the Hou Mansion, holding an embroidered handkerchief in her slender hand and half covering her small mouth, smiling coquettishly and walking past the crowd, with a hint of contempt .

This lady must also be the master of the Hou Mansion, she looks only a little like the second lady, the second lady is elegant, and this lady is full of vigor. The eyes are big, the lips are thin, and you can tell that it is pungent at a glance. There is a pendant bun on the head, necklaces are decorated on the sideburns, and an agate hairpin is shining in the sun. This young lady is also wearing a mink fur cape, but it's a different color. It's an emerald blue cape. Inside the cape is a bijia accompanied by a pleated skirt, which looks very eye-catching.

Zhu Ping'an's first impression of her was that this person was probably aggressive, with an unforgiving mouth.

"Grandpa, this is the third lady in the Hou's mansion. She is the jewel in the palm of the second master's family, and she is most favored by the old lady." The old lady behind Zhu Pingan reminded Zhu Pingan in a low voice very dutifully.

The two young ladies from the Hou's Mansion who came here first, smiled coquettishly and came across the crowd, neither of them had seen Li Shu and the others yet. Then the voice came. It could be seen that the two of them were very confident. They hadn't seen Li Shu for several years. They expected that no matter how good Li Shu was in the country, she was just from the country, so how could she compare to herself.

The two thought to themselves that Li Shu and the others might have been overwhelmed by the prosperity of the Hou Mansion.

However, the next scene was beyond their expectations.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they heard a burst of lark-like laughter. A stunning girl about fourteen or fifteen years old led a few old mothers and maids to usher them in a graceful manner.

"Giggle. Tired sisters have been waiting for a long time. It's my sister's fault."

Beautiful girl Li Shu came, smiling coquettishly with her red lips curled up, bowing in front of the two of them, her black eyes rolling slyly.

This is Fifth Sister?

this moment. The two ladies of the Hou Mansion were shocked in their hearts. The fifth sister in their hearts was far from the fifth younger sister in front of them.

The fifth younger sister in front of me doesn’t look like she came from the countryside. If it’s not the fifth younger sister, I think it’s the princess who has arrived. The face of the fifth younger sister in front of her was exquisite and beautiful, even more beautiful than the number one beauty recognized by their acquaintances. Even the clothes she was wearing were styles that were just beginning to be popular in the royal family. It hasn't been popular in the capital yet, and they were only invited by Mrs. Wei Guogong's wife to a banquet once, and they have seen it on the princess who came to the banquet.

Especially the jewelry she wears, let alone the delphinium hairpin she wears on her head, and a string of crystal clear black pearls held in her delicately carved jade beak, the pearls are so moist, The size is exactly the same, the value of this string of pearls is probably more expensive than the ones on their own.

"Thanks to my sister, the harvest is not bad. For pearls, there are a few carriages and hundreds of corals."

As if Li Shu didn't see the shock in the eyes of the two sisters, she pouted and counted with her slender hands.

"Ahem, cough, fifth sister, your third sister is asking about the harvest in the field?" The Second Miss of the Hou Mansion coughed.

"Then I don't know. The third sister actually likes the fields." Li Shu looked innocently at the third lady of the Hou Mansion, as if she was looking at a bumpkin.

The third lady of the Hou Mansion had black lines on her face. Just as she was about to speak, she heard another lady of the Hou Mansion coming over.

"Hello Fifth Sister, I'm Zhu'er, Fifth Sister is really beautiful, even more beautiful than the fairies in the paintings."

The person who spoke was Miss Six of the Hou Mansion, with a round and cute face, and she looked peaceful and harmless to humans and animals. She was wearing a ponytail, and she was also wearing a sable cape, and she was wearing a lot of jewelry. It is not inferior to those of the other young ladies.

"Hello, Sister Zhuer." Li Shu smiled slightly and replied.

"Hehe. I heard that the fifth sister brought the fifth brother-in-law, Zhu'er has to take a good look."

The Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion showed her small canine teeth and giggled coquettishly as she walked past Li Shu and walked towards Zhu Ping'an.

Then, Zhu Ping'an watched the Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion come to him with a coquettish smile on her face.

"Hehe. This is the fifth brother-in-law. I heard that you are a country bumpkin?" Miss Six of the Hou Mansion looked at Zhu Ping'an with a round and lovely smiling face and asked, showing an innocent and naive look.

Zhu Ping'an didn't respond yet, Li Shu on the other side had a bad face when he heard the words.

"Fifth Sister, are you tired from traveling?"

When Miss Six of the Hou's Mansion asked Zhu Ping'an, she was also paying attention to Li Shu at the same time. Seeing that Li Shu's expression was a little bit bad at this moment, she asked with a concerned expression.

"Thank you, sister Zhu'er, for your concern. There is nothing wrong with my sister. It's just that the crows croaking on the road when I came here are annoying." Li Shu replied with an embroidered handkerchief in her slender hand, slightly covering her lips with a touch of emotion.

"Then sister should take a good rest."

The Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion said with concern, then turned her head to look at Zhu Pingan, and continued to ask curiously like a little white rabbit:

"Are you really a bumpkin, I haven't seen a bumpkin like you yet?"

To be honest, looking at the Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion in front of him, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but think of those species called green tea watches. Harmless to humans and animals, with a peaceful appearance, but in essence, he is good at scheming and has greater ambitions than anyone else.

Hearing the cute and innocent question of Miss Sixth of the Hou Mansion, Zhu Pingan couldn't help showing a simple and honest smile.

"Ahem, a good-looking boy like you, with a nice voice, pure and refined, beautiful and intelligent, floating like catkins in the wind, and curious. To be honest, I'm such a bumpkin." Zhu Pingan smiled naively. replied.

Sure enough, he is a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.

The latter words must mean that a good-looking boy like me has never seen a country bumpkin like him.

Hearing this, the sixth miss of the Hou Mansion couldn't help but show her small canine teeth and glanced at Li Shu with a little pride.

However, the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion was a little surprised to find that Li Shu was also smiling coquettishly and looking at it with great interest. Strange, shouldn't it add fuel to the fire, how come I laughed.

"Ahem, a good-looking boy like you, with a nice voice, pure and refined, beautiful and intelligent, floating like catkins in the wind, and curious. To be honest, I'm such a bumpkin." Zhu Pingan smiled naively. He continued, "One can hit ten!"

The Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion looked at Zhu Ping'an with a dumbfounded look on her face.

"Zhu Ping'an, don't make jokes, don't scare sister Zhu'er." Li Shu next to her smiled coquettishly and said to Zhu Ping'an.
