Chapter 016: Sending Cloth

This is the tip of the tender hair in the Wushan in the palace, the emperor rewarded the prince with a catty, and the prince gave his sister Princess Anyang a few taels. Xie Fuya went back to her parents' house and drank a pill and thought it was good, so Princess Anyang asked her to wrap two taels and bring her back.

Xie Fuya also put down the teacup and said with a smile: "This tea is the imperial tribute in the palace, and I only got two taels, and I have drunk some more in recent days, and the rest are afraid that they are less than one or two, and I can't share my sister." ”

Cai Yurong's face was displeased when she heard this, "Then forget it, bring back some tea crumbs!"

was so mercilessly sneered at by her sister-in-law, if it was another sister-in-law, she was afraid that she would have a sour face and a couple of sentences, but Xie Fuya endured Cai Yurong in both lives! In her last life, she wanted to have a good relationship with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law and win over Cai Erye's heart; in this life, she deliberately increased Cai Yurong's arrogance, so that this sister-in-law would be even more unpopular, so that she would suffer a greater loss in the future!

Seeing that Xie Fuya just smiled and didn't accept her sarcasm, Cai Yurong was even more angry.

Other sisters-in-law all love and coax the sister-in-law, and they can't wait to smile in front of the sister-in-law, hoping to make the sister-in-law say a few beautiful words in front of her in-laws and husband!

"The twenty-eighth of this month is the Queen Mother's Thousand Birthday Festival, can the second sister-in-law prepare a birthday gift for the Queen Mother?" Cai Yurong asked with raised eyebrows.

The current queen mother is the queen who was sick in bed and died a month ago, and she is fourteen years younger than the current emperor. After Emperor Xuanwen ascended the throne, he was enshrined as the empress dowager and lived in Cining Palace.

June 28 is the birthday of the Queen Mother, every year the palace will set up a banquet to invite the officials of the four grades and the ladies of the palace to enter the palace to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, which is also a good opportunity for the Queen Mother to please in front of the Queen Mother, and it is a good opportunity for each daughter to show her face.

Xie Fuya had her own plans for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, but her mind was not on the "birthday gift".

"I am now the daughter-in-law of Chengyi Bofu, and the birthday gift offered by the eldest aunt is a piece of our filial piety to the Queen Mother, why bother to give a separate son?" Xie Fuya said lightly.

"How can it be the same?" Cai Yurong said in a hurry, "The second sister-in-law is the great-granddaughter of the Queen Mother, and it is also appropriate to give a gift alone!"

Yes, if I give a gift alone to win the love of the Queen Mother, it will be the second room of the Bofu that will show my face at that time, and the second wife and sister-in-law will also have glory on their faces, right?

Heh! Think beautifully! Such an obvious thing to compete with the big house for the limelight will be done by a fool!

"Then I'll think about it. Xie Fuya didn't want to listen to Cai Yurong's nonsense, so she said perfunctorily.

Cai Yurong thought that Xie Fuya agreed, and her heart was a little more comfortable, and she remembered the purpose of her trip today.

"On the day of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, what are the second sister-in-law going to wear?" Cai Yurong's eyes fell on the begonia red dress on Xie Fuya's body, and it was difficult to hide the jealousy and envy in her eyes, "My sister-in-law has the princess's mother's affection, and there is no shortage of good clothes and jewelry." Unlike me, I only have a few clothes made in the house according to the season, and the jewelry is not new, so I don't have to be significantly shabby when I wear it!"

Although Chengyibo's Mansion has been declining in recent years because of the uncompetitive spirit of the gentlemen, the four-season clothes that the girls in the mansion have purchased are not "shabby"! Cai Yurong's dissatisfaction with this statement is nothing more than selling miserably and wanting to bargain for some bargains from Xie Fuya!

"Didn't the fourth brother of the fifth room give a few new materials to each room two days ago?" Xie Fuya picked up the teacup and gently flicked the lid, "This is more than half a month before the queen mother's birthday banquet, so let the tailor hurry up and get out a new dress for my sister." ”

"The colors and patterns of those fabrics are old, and even the clothes on the second sister-in-law are not as good as the clothes that are worn casually at home!" Cai Yurong pinched the handkerchief and said aggrievedly, "I heard that my sister-in-law got some new materials from the princess's mansion, I don't know...... I don't know what kind of style it is?"

Rushi stood aside and lowered her eyes, and her heart swelled with contempt for this Cai Er girl!

As soon as Cai Yurong said it, Xie Fuya's mind flashed and she had a new idea!

Xie Fuya turned her head to the maid standing on the side and said, "Rushi, go to the library and bring the fabric I brought back from the Horse Mansion a few days ago to pick the second girl." How can I let my sister wear old clothes to the palace banquet?"

"Yes, Grandma. Ru Shifu received the order, and when he left, he glanced at Cai Yurong, who was happy.

Soon, Rushi led the two little girls back, each holding a two-color fabric in their hands.

Rushi asked the little girls to put the fabric on the table, and Cai Yurong couldn't wait to walk to the table.

It is worthy of the material given by the princess, it is better than the material sent by the fifth room!

Cai Yurong reached out and touched the four pieces of fabric, and her eyes lit up!

The brocade of white maple on a red background is soft and cool to the touch, and if it is made into clothes, it is suitable for this season to wear! There is also this tender yellow cloud veil, which is draped over the skirt of the dress, which can not only reveal the pattern of the clothes, but also make people extremely luxurious! The piece of water-blue plain brocade is also beautiful, and the blue color is refreshing! Only the purple fragrant cloud yarn is a little darker, and it is almost the same as giving it to the mother and mother-in-law in the house to make clothes.

"These three pieces of material...... It's so pretty. Cai Yurong touched this piece and touched that piece, looking like she couldn't wait to ask for it all.

Xie Fuya saw her sister-in-law's greedy face, and the corners of her mouth hooked slightly: "I think it looks best to make a small wide-sleeved dress with white maple on a red background, and a yellow pleated Luo skirt." It's better for my sister to choose the material with white maple on a red background. ”

When Cai Yurong heard this, she hurriedly grabbed the piece of fabric in her hand, turned her head and smiled at Xie Fuya: "Since my sister-in-law said this, I'm welcome?"

Xie Fuya smiled, raised her hand and said, "What are you polite to your family?" I feel that the cloud gauze is also lining you, and it is better to make a gauze that is draped on the outside. ”

"That's exactly what I thought!" Cai Yurong picked up the cloud veil as well, and her eyes fell on the aquamarine brocade again.

Cai Yurong thought that Xie Fuya would generously give that piece of plain brocade to herself, but she heard her second sister-in-law say to the maidservant: "Rushi, you will send that piece of plain brocade to the eldest grandmother for a while, and say that I gave it to Sister Min to make clothes." ”

Sister Min is the eldest daughter of the uncle Cai Chengfeng and the grandmother Wen, and she is five years old this year. The dough is very cute, every time I see Xie Fuya, I am not afraid to shout "second aunt", and I will sweetly praise the second aunt for being good-looking.

When Cai Yurong heard that Xie Fuya was going to give the fabric to Dafang's niece, she immediately said unhappily: "Sister Min is only a little older child, how can she use such valuable materials to tailor her? Isn't it a waste?"

Xie Fuya smiled on her face, and said lightly: "The second girl should call the tailor to enter the house and tailor it earlier, I am afraid that this dress will still be changed after it is done, and it is not good to delay the second girl to wear it at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet." ”

Cai Yurong heard that Xie Fuya didn't like to point fingers, anyway, she had already got two pieces of fabric, which was enough. Just as Xie Shi said, she hurriedly asked the tailor to make clothes! Glancing at the piece of water blue brocade again, Cai Yurong let her girl hold the fabric and say goodbye to Xie Fuya.

As soon as Cai Yurong left, Rushi couldn't help but ask Xie Fuya, "Why is grandma so used to the second girl?

Xie Fuya slowly wrapped her fingers around the handkerchief and smiled: "I just give me what I am willing to give, and what I don't want to give...... No one can take it away!"
