"Mama Jiang, can you see if this is suitable for the little lady?" Old Madam Lin of the Lin Guogong Mansion was bathed in the sun, and asked the grandmother beside her with a pink crystal bracelet in her hand.
"The old lady wants me to say, let's Miss Nuan Nuan, like you, can afford anything!"
"Well, I'll see too! You bring that box, I'll take a look at it again!" Old Madam Lin pointed to the shiny wooden box on the table that he had just taken out.
Mama Jiang hurriedly handed it to Mrs. Lin, only to see that she took out a gold chain inlaid with precious stones.
I saw that this chain was made of twenty-nine gold balls strung together. Each ball of silk was set with ten pearls. There is a gold ring at the upper end, and a sapphire is set in the middle of the ring. At the lower end hangs a round gold ornament, which is inlaid with red gemstones, and the two ends correspond to the upper ends, and the diamond-shaped gold ornaments are inlaid with lapis lazuli beads. At the bottom hangs an ovoid colorless and transparent pendant.
As soon as I took out this gem-encrusted gold necklace, I only felt that the whole interior was bright, and it looked very luxurious.
"Old lady, isn't this?" Mama Jiang recognized at a glance.
"Yes, this is still given to me by the queen mother back then, and it is said that it is the craftsmanship of the outside. It's just a trick to say that children wear it and it's quite a blessing!"
As she spoke, Old Madam Lin touched the beads, gems and transparent beads on the gold chain, and her eyes drifted away.
Mama Jiang knew that her master had thought of the past again.
She hurriedly interrupted, "Yes, old lady, you were a famous beauty when you were a child, who didn't like it when you saw it?" So in the future, Miss Nuan Nuan will definitely grow into a great beauty like her great-grandmother!"
"You old man is making fun of me!" Mrs. Lin was interrupted by her, and temporarily suppressed her sadness and said with a smile, "Our little Nuan Nuan, I don't ask her to fall into the country and the city, and her wisdom is unparalleled." As long as it's smooth, it's done!"
"That's for sure, with the protection of such a blessed ancestor like you, Miss Nuan Nuan will definitely be happy with Shun for a lifetime!"
"Somehow, Wen Fang! In my heart, I just feel very close to this little girl I have never met. Old Madam Lin said. Jiang's mother's maiden name is Jiang Wenfang.
"That's the fate between you and Miss Nuan Nuan!" Mother Jiang took the gold chain handed over by Mrs. Lin, carefully put it away, and prepared to put it away.
When people are old, they love to think about the past. Mama Jiang thought, Mrs. Lin is thinking about the deceased Queen Mother.
"There's no need to put it back, it's better to let the person from before put it away properly and send it with this box!" said Mrs. Lin.
Mama Jiang was stunned for a moment, she saw the old lady holding the pink crystal bracelet and knew that this was not in the list, as in the past, it was given to Lin Erye and Miss Nuan Nuan alone.
Oh, yes, this year, I also put a pomegranate pattern hosta to please the Li family.
But this gold chain was given to Miss Nuan Nuan according to Old Madam Lin's instructions? Mother Jiang couldn't help but wonder and looked up at Old Madam Lin.
"I know what you mean, this gold chain is the only thought left to me by the queen mother, and I didn't even give it to Frangipani, do you think I'm biased?"
Frangipani, Lin Suxin is the wife of the Marquis of Dingyuan, Lin. When she was in the boudoir, she liked this gold chain very much, and felt that whether it was the color, jade, gold beads or the transparent charm, it was rare to have good craftsmanship.
However, although Mrs. Lin loves her daughter, she is reluctant to give her this gold chain.
This is not partial, so what is it called partiality? Mama Jiang said in her heart.
It's just that Mrs. Lin is on the rise, and she can't say anything, not to mention that the master is doing this, it must have her meaning.
"Old lady, you are doing this because you love the thoughts of your juniors, what is there to be eccentric, and besides, this Miss Nuan Nuan is a real benevolence and filial piety!"
Mother Jiang said in her heart, Miss Nuan Nuan can still tell whether she is flattering to the old lady or filial piety. Not to mention the old lady Lin who has read countless people!
"Yes, I've been unsteady lately. I had a bad dream yesterday! I thought about using this gold chain from the queen mother to press her!"
"This is the kind of fruit tea that Nuan Nuan said, right? Hehe, the little girl loves beauty, and she should be beautiful when she drinks tea. The tea is all sencha with ginger and garlic, and she only likes sweet, but it's delicious!" said Mrs. Lin after taking a sip.
"It's just that the Li family is suffering, she is a more upright person, and now behind a little girl, I can guess her thoughts. ”
"But it's cheaper for you again!"
Mama Jiang took Mrs. Lin's words and said: "If you want to say that the second grandmother is really good at teaching children, you see Miss Nuan, no matter what good things there are, you have to think of you! The second grandmother will give birth to a great-grandson for you in a year and a half, and it will be more complete!"
It stands to reason that the master cannot be criticized as a servant, but Mama Jiang is different from ordinary people, so Mrs. Lin is also willing to talk to her.
"It was also our warm girl who blessed Zeshen and took away the root of her mother's illness!
Old Madam Lin couldn't help but sigh when she remembered the past, "It's also Xue's confusion, my own daughter-in-law is unwell, and I actually take care of a concubine first! It's not that I'm pressing, this mother and son have already turned against each other! It's not even that I sent a red! No wonder Ze'er is angry!"
"You dissipate your anger, the second master is a filial person, and listen to you!" Mama Jiang hurriedly said.
"Yes, if you change to someone else, I don't know why! I said a long time ago that the Liu family is not a good one, but she doesn't listen to it! You see that the child has gone to Jiangnan and has not stopped, and what cousin and niece did she give When I don't know, how can she have any cousin and niece who is clearly from the Liu family!" Mrs. Lin put down the teacup.
"Old lady, do you think that Miss Nuan will put away the gold chains and pink crystals that her great-grandmother gave her?" Seeing that Old Madam Lin was talking, the more angry she became, she hurriedly changed her words.
They all knew that Lin Nuannuan liked to hide some gold and silver ornaments, and they also heard about it. Therefore, Mama Jiang took it out and joked at this time.
"You old man is talking about our warm girl again!" said Mrs. Lin with a smile on her face.
She smiled faintly: "Don't say it, this shows the child's generosity! Wen Fang, I always feel that something is wrong in my heart these days!
Mrs. Lin said worriedly: "That child is too benevolent and righteous, so little bit knows how to put away the silver and jewelry and keep them for the adults! How pitiful it hurts! It can be seen that Yu Ze is reporting good news and not bad news! Alas, the child is suffering, I will see if I will add some to her and ......."
Mama Jiang secretly said in her heart: Isn't this called eccentricity?
Lin Nuannuan: The parents who gave birth to me, and the mother Jiang who knows me!
