Speaking of Han Qingwan's temperament, she is more similar to the old lady. She is tolerant and hidden, always pretending to be impeccable.

It wasn't until she almost reached the peak of power that she slowly took off her disguise, at least in front of Han Youning, she no longer had to work hard to hide it.

Han Qingwan herself did not take action easily, and always acted as a peacemaker, letting Han Qinglian act as a knife, and frequently framed her.

The two of them fought fiercely, but neither of them ended well in the end. However, Han Qingwan watched from the other side and gained both fame and fortune.

Han Youning said with a smile, "I don't think my second cousin is speaking openly. It's good to say it clearly if you have anything to say."

A few words solved Han Qingwan's attempt to sow discord.

Han Qingwan didn't show it on her face, but in her heart she began to have a different understanding of Han Youning than before.

Not all fat people are stupid. The fat cousin in front of me seemed to be able to see through people's minds. She ignored her kindness from the beginning and could always find loopholes in her words.

can turn the situation around.

She also heard from her second brother what happened at the pier yesterday, and Chen Youning actually made fun of him while talking and laughing.

How can this be foolishness? It is clearly extremely cunning!

Han Qingwan cheered up and smiled gently, "My cousin is right. I can't say it so completely and nicely."

Han Youning said quietly, "Words are the voice of the heart, and words are the thoughts of the heart. The words you say have several meanings, and they are all determined in your heart. If you don't want it to sound good in your heart, it will naturally not sound good."

She smiled, looked at Han Qingwan's face, and her tone was still calm, "Look, I'm not happy right now. Although what I said is not too unpleasant, aren't you also happy?"

The smile on Han Qingwan's face was almost unbearable. She was so unabashedly sharp because she didn't have to pretend if the prince and other officials were not around!

She clenched her hands and said calmly, "My cousin is really good at joking. We are all sisters. How could I be unhappy?"

"If you feel happy, then you are happy."

Han Youning looked calm, sat down and ate some snacks with his eyes down.

In contrast, Han Qingwan obviously lost her usual calmness, and there was already a gloomy look in her eyes.

Everyone in the room and the maid were surprised. This cousin was too domineering!

The eldest lady is so kind and cheerful, but she is so ignorant!

Han Qinglian glanced sideways at Han Youning. Although she still looked down upon the inferiors, she was still happy to see Han Qingwan being choked.

Han Qingwan is too perfect and too shining. With her around, no matter how beautiful she is, she is just an inconspicuous wild flower next to the rich peonies.

Those high-ranking disciples only have eyes for the eldest daughter of Duke Dingguo, and they flatter Han Qingwan. Who can see the existence of her, a concubine?

She was born with the destiny of phoenix, and she can be a crown princess or a queen in the future.

As for myself, as a concubine, the most she can do is marry a concubine with a low family status, or a scholar from a poor family.

They were girls from the same house and fathered by the same father. How could she be reconciled to such a completely different fate?

Han Qinglian looked at Han Qingwan with a smile, pretending to be innocent and said, "My cousin's theory is quite interesting. According to my cousin, the eldest sister hates her in her heart?"

Han Qingwan gave her an angry look, "Second sister, you are naughty again."

She knows that the best way to deal with criticism from others is to remain silent and calm.

She calmly sat down next to Han Youning, her eyes fell on Han Youning's dress, and her eyes suddenly shrank.

Han Youning was dressed in plain white. She originally thought it was just plain white silk embroidered with dark patterns of flowing clouds, but when she took a closer look, she found that the quality of the dress was crystal clear, misty and misty, and exquisite. Although it was only plain white and light green,

But there seem to be dozens of combinations of white and blue gradients. Although it is plain, it has a carved and radiant feeling——

This is obviously Kesi!

The tapestry technique is complex, and even a skilled craftsman may not be able to weave one meter of tapestry in a year. Therefore, tapestry is extremely rare and rare. There is a saying that "one inch of tapestry is an inch of gold", and it has always been only provided to the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty.

Even for the empresses in the palace, only those with high status could get the silk tapestry to make clothes.

The emperor occasionally gave rewards to ministers who had meritorious service. The rewards were more for Shu brocade, but rarely for Kesi and Yun brocade.

A few years ago, my uncle won a great victory. The emperor was so happy that he rewarded his uncle with a piece of tapestry. It was said to be just one piece, but in fact it was not as big as half the length of the cloth next to it, and it was only four or five meters long.

The eldest uncle gave it to his grandmother. Grandma felt like she had found a treasure and invited an embroiderer from the famous Jinxiu Workshop in Beijing to make repeated measurements and calculations for several days before cutting it with scissors, trying not to waste any fabric.

The embroiderer used the piece of tapestry to make a jacket, a waistcoat, a handkerchief, and pieced together the remaining corners to make two purses.

She and Han Qinglian each got one of the purses. Although they couldn't make out the pattern, they happily wore them out to banquets for several days in a row, earning the envy of all the ladies.

After my grandmother got new clothes, she specially held a flower-viewing banquet and invited the ladies from the capital to come to the Duke's Mansion to enjoy the flowers. The grandmother's gown was even more enviable by the ladies, establishing her status as a flower-appreciation party in the capital.

She has a transcendent status in the circle of ladies. Even the princes and princesses respect her for her pleasant appearance.

Now that several years have passed, the jacket and waistcoat are still my grandmother's treasures, and they are only worn on important occasions. And those noble ladies always give a few compliments, and they don't feel the pattern at all.

Obsolete.

After all, the noble Kesi and Yun brocade have always led the fashion.

But now, Chen Youning is a businesswoman, and her clothes are all made of Kesi! Look at the colors, they are just fashionable in Beijing this year!

No matter how wealthy the Chen family is, they are still lowly businessmen. Using royal possessions is a serious crime of disrespect. It is to...

Beheaded.

Han Qingwan put away the strange look in her eyes and said with a smile, "My cousin, these clothes are very beautiful, and the cloud patterns are just like real ones."

Han Youning had no sense of pride in wearing Kesi clothes, and said in a casual and indifferent tone, "During my mourning period, I can only wear plain clothes, and I can't wear anything with flowers."

Han Qingwan took a sip of tea and said, "That's what my cousin said."

After hearing Han Qingwan's words, the old lady and Little Wen also looked at Han Youning.

The old lady's eyes moved slightly. She was now far away, and the lines on the dress were clearer. The clouds were three-dimensional and lifelike, as if they were floating on the dress.

No one knows what material this is better than her.

The camellias on her quilt were so vivid that they bloomed in the sky, and even attracted butterflies to land on it when she went to the garden.

Kesi.

The Chen family really relies on the fact that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, they are lawless.

Little Wen also discovered the problem. Just when she was about to speak, she heard the old lady's teacup ringing. She looked around and saw the old lady shaking her head gently.
