Chapter 47: The Gift I

In the first half of the second day, I was woken up by Zhan Lu's shout, and I felt so tired that I didn't want to open my eyes, so I turned over and said angrily: "I'm very sleepy, Zhan Lu let people sleep for a while." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"It's not that the maid is rude, it's the queen mother in the palace who suddenly rewarded a housekeeper mother, or a female official who holds the silver in the inner court. That Tong's mother has already arrived in the house, and the maid has welcomed her to live in the West Wing, and she went to settle things first. Zhao Xun can't afford it now, so I don't have to make her laugh. ”

Did King Xiao enter the palace early this morning, and only yesterday he said that he would ask the queen to give him a housekeeper mother, and he will arrive at this time. It's really a good word.

Helpless, I yawned while covering my mouth with my hands, and was helped up by Zhan Lu while enduring sleepiness.

It's easy to clean up, groom and clean up, and just used half a piece of jujube paste yam cake, Ruyi came to say: "Mother Tong came to give Zhaoxun a gift." ”

I glanced at Chifu and took her and Zhan Lu to the inner hall. Sitting on the rose chair, Ruyi led a woman in her thirties in. The complexion is very white, with a long face, slightly narrow eyes, yellowish eyes, wearing a dark purple silver line trimmed gown, combing a round bun, not messy, obliquely inserted a gold hairpin inlaid with lapis lazuli, and a pair of lapis lazuli earrings on the ears. Look simple and pretty, and the face is old and dignified.

"Servant Tong Andong, please say hello to Zhaoxun. ”

I got up with a smile, personally helped her up, and said, "Mother Tong came to me from the palace, and she was wronged. ”

"Don't dare to be wronged. The maid received the great favor of the queen, and whatever the mother sent, she naturally obeyed her orders and did not dare not be unsatisfied. "Mama Tong is neither soft nor hard.

Interesting, I said to myself.

"I'm young, and I'll ask my mother to give me advice in the future. He smiled and served tea.

After resting in the afternoon, the newly appointed maid in the house arrived.

I looked at the girls kneeling in the room, about twenty people, and I was slightly stunned for a while.

Zhan Lu came over and whispered behind him, "The housekeeper said to let Zhao Xun pick a few of his favorites." It doesn't matter if there are a few more. ”

I laughed, "This is nonsense, according to me, it's better to accept it all, and accept his affection." Don't dare to go over the prince and Liangdi. Besides, the old rules in the house are now there, so why don't I follow the rules. Looking back at Chifu, "You and Zhan Lu should think carefully and pick six." ”

I went back to the second room and continued to embroider the sachet.

At one point, Chifu came in and cleaned her hands to help me divide the line, "There are six people left." Four of them were newly bought from outside farmers' homes, and the other two were born to people in the house. ”

I bowed my head, "That's what it is." Now there are Zhanlu and Ruyi in the palace, but no one walks around for us outside the palace. Leave a few outside just bought, as long as the origin is innocent, it can always play a role. ”

I looked at the flower clusters that had taken shape on the embroidered surface and began to embroider a cluster of flames in the lower right corner.

He said slowly: "There is no need to let them come up to serve at the beginning of these new additions, and the four from outside will be placed on the third-class quota first." One of the two family members is placed in the first class and the other is placed in the second class, and then one of the original second class is selected and mentioned in the first class, and three of the third class are raised to the second class. ”

Chifu answered, and was about to speak, when Chloe came in and said, "Lady Sumire is here." ”

Chifu and I glanced at each other, then reached out and put the embroidered sachet in my hand aside, covered it with an embroidery of spring water reflecting peaches, and took care of the makeup in the mirror, and then went out.

"Sumire Yi said hello to Zhaoxun. Mrs. Sumire smiled and saluted.

I took a few steps forward, held her up, and bowed to her again, and then sat down with the guest and host, and Xue Nuer jumped into my arms from Chloe's hand, and meowed, and then fell quietly on my lap, and only looked at Mrs. Sumire with a pair of blue eyes wide open.

Mrs. Sumire praised: "The prince really loves Zhaoxun." I can't find a few of these cats all over the capital. Really cute tight. After a few words of greeting, he took a red box from the big girl Jiaoying next to him and put it on the table. smiled: "This is a congratulatory gift to Zhao Xun." Please also ask Zhaoxun not to dislike it. ”

I smiled and thanked him, and motioned for Zhan Lu to accept it.

After a few more gossips, Mrs. Sumire said with a straight face, "We northerners are straight, and I can't hide my words, so I will say something to Zhaoxun." If it's abrupt, please forgive Zhaoxun. ”

I asked with a smile, "What is it that is worthy of Sister Jianyi's solemnity?" ”

Mrs. Sumire looked into my eyes and said, "Sumire entered the mansion early, there is no concubine in the mansion, and the prince has entrusted the trivial matters in the mansion to me over the years." After Ruan Liangdi entered the house, because her body and bones have always been weak, and people advocate clean talk, she is tired of these mundane affairs, so she didn't take it over. Now that there is Zhaoxun in the house, Sumire Yi came to Zhaoxun to hand over the middle of the house. ”

I glanced at Mrs. Sumire quietly, and said with a smile: "Since my sister has been in charge of the affairs of the house, why did she rush out." Xiaoguan is young, and she wants her sister to take care of it more. "When I started Tai Chi, it doesn't mean that I am willing to take it or not. I can't tell at the moment whether Lady Sumire is sincere or tentative.

And Mrs. Sumire came suddenly, and I haven't made up my mind yet. If he takes over the authority to take charge of the affairs of the mansion from the old man in the mansion, this is a risky move, and it is very likely to break the delicate balance between Ruan Liangdi, Madame Sumire and me, and push Madame Sumire to Ruan Liangdi's side.

However, I was quite tempted, and a simple woman in the house really couldn't do anything for her family. If you take care of the trivial affairs in the house, you can bring some people under your command, and things in the outside world will be much more convenient. hesitated in his heart, but he didn't pay attention to the strength in his hand, and it was estimated that it hurt Xuenuer, and the little thing meowed and jumped off the ground.

I saw Xue Nuer run out of the house, and hurriedly motioned for Chloe to chase after her.

Turning his head to look at Mrs. Sumire again, after listening to what I said before, she looked calm, and saw that I was in a hurry, and Xue Nuer didn't pay attention to greet her, and she didn't care at all.

I'm a little embarrassed to do that. With a soft heart, he simply made his words clear: "Although how you and my sister act in the mansion, it ultimately depends on the meaning of the prince." But don't worry, sister, you have a lot of qualifications in the house, and you have always taken good care of me. Xiaoguan must respect her sister first. ”

Mrs. Sumire smiled and said softly, "Zhao Xun has a lot of heart. Jin Yi has been in charge of the palace for many years, and she also wants to take a break. With more leisure time, you can also put more effort into taking care of yourself. Otherwise, my sister is a few years older, and she is not as beautiful as Zhaoxun, so if she doesn't pay attention to it, I'm afraid that she will look even older. What a woman's family cares about the most is, in the final analysis, her husband's love and her own appearance. ”

I heard this with a little sour meaning, and I couldn't help but feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and the alienation that I had before because of Mrs. Sumire and Imperial Doctor Cao faded a little. At that time, although he had been ill for a long time, it didn't hurt much, not to mention that he didn't verify his suspicions, maybe it was just some coincidence.

Thinking about this, Mrs. Sumire will be more sincere. I gossiped with her for a long time.

Ruyi suddenly came in and said with a smile: "Mrs. Susu is here." ”
