The gold-painted box has two layers. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The upper layer is filled with rouge gouache and other things, Qin E looked at them one by one, and it was the tonka powder, Yuanshan Dai and Dianjiang rouge that were highly sought after by the ladies and ladies of the capital.

Qin E opened the second floor, only to see that under the lights, it was bright, and it was actually a full layer of jewelry.

The phoenix hairpin of ruby, the bracelet of Nanzhu, the hairpin of the emerald, the ring of opal, the jade bracelet of verdant dripping, there are more than a dozen.

It is not a set, but it is all valuable jewelry that can be taken out on weekdays,

Gray Wen exclaimed in a low voice: "Such a handful of jewelry is worth the boxes of things sent by Princess Chun." ”

Qin E was also surprised.

Although she was injured in order to save her, it would be too good for her to be courteous to herself as the county lord.

Thinking of the kindness and enthusiasm that the county lord of Jianing had shown to him from the beginning, Qin E's heart became more and more unsteady.

There must be some reason why I didn't find out.

Qin E locked the box and handed it to Gray Wen: "Find a place to put it away." ”

Gray Wencheng took the thing in fear and retreated cautiously.

The second grandmother sent the sweet soup in, and Qin E asked her: "Second grandmother, you came back today to report the news, why didn't the old lady know that the county lord was also here?"

Second Lady: "I didn't see the old lady when I came back, the third lady sent a maid to ask, I said that the eldest lady went home after lunch, and the maid left without listening to the next sentence." ”

Qin E said: "You didn't finish it on purpose, right?"

The second grandmother said: "I can't hide anything from the eldest lady." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Don't do this next time, my foundation is unstable now, let the old lady see that I can't save you from suffering hardship.

The second grandmother said: "Don't worry, eldest lady, I will be careful." ”

The next day, just after breakfast, the third lady came over.

"Are you all settled?" his eyes didn't look at Qin E, only stared at the things in the room.

Qin E was not angry, and she looked around.

He said with a little sourness: "It is worthy of the Chunwang Mansion, the things sent are good, and the house is much more beautiful all of a sudden." ”

Qin E thought to herself, it turned out that there was nothing in the house, so naturally it was not as good as it is now.

I watched everything that should be seen, and He didn't stay any longer, drank a bowl of tea and left.

Back in his own courtyard, He was silent on the chaise longue.

A little girl picked fresh flowers, and magpies were inserted into Ho's favorite vase and placed on the windowsill.

"Madame, look at how gorgeous these flowers are. ”

He glanced at it lazily, frowned, and said, "What's the use of flowers looking good, it's not inserted into a broken bottle." ”

When the magpie heard this, she knew that she was not happy when she saw Qin E's things. After thinking about it, he turned around and gave her grapes to eat.

It has passed the height of summer, and grapes are not an ordinary item in the capital, and the price is very high, and He likes to eat them very much on weekdays.

Sure enough, seeing the grapes that were as crystal as amethyst and smelling the fragrant fruity smell, He's face was slightly better.

The magpie picked up the grapes for her and persuaded: "The two plum bottles in the eldest lady's house are indeed beautiful, but these two things are as rich as the riches in the lady's house." ”

He Shi spit out the seeds and said angrily: "What do you know, just these two things are worth half of my room." ”

There was a sound of talking outside, and the magpie went out to take a look, and came back to say, "It's Mother Shen from the big kitchen who came to buy silver this month." ”

He Shi's willow eyebrows were upside down: "Urge, urge, but a few days too late, just like this." ”

The magpie smiled: "They also don't have money to buy vegetables, so they're in a hurry." ”

"Just talk to you. He lowered his voice and said, "Have you returned the money you put out?"

The magpie also lowered his voice and said, "Not yet, I have already asked Chen Yongcai to urge." ”

He Shi frowned: "You call him a little sharper, you delay things, and everyone has a good life." ”

The magpie asked, "What now?" I see that the big kitchen is really in a hurry, and if she doesn't get the money, she will go to the old lady, but it will be troublesome. ”

He Shi held his head and said: "Go and give her the thirty taels in the cabinet first, don't say what I gave, say I'm uncomfortable, you do it yourself, take it to the emergency." When she returns to me, she will give her the rest. ”

The magpie hurriedly responded, opened the small cabinet, took out a bag of silver, and took it out.

It didn't take long for the voices in the yard to disperse.

He walked around the house twice and said to the magpie who came back, "Let's go, let's go to the old lady." ”

entered the small mountain house, but saw that the second lady Qi was also there.

He Shi was very dissatisfied with her demolition of the stage yesterday, and said, "The second sister-in-law is also there", so he didn't say more.

After Qi left, the old lady glared at her and said, "It's early in the morning, who are you not happy to show it?"

He pouted, pulled the old lady's sleeve and said, "The second sister-in-law is used to being a good person, and I am annoyed when I look at it." ”

The old lady pulled back her sleeve: "I know you are angry that she didn't give you face yesterday, but do you know that thanks to her reminder, you didn't cause trouble." ”

He Shi was puzzled: "What trouble did I cause?"

The old lady nodded her forehead and said, "Have you ever thought about why the Chun Wangfu sent those things? Why did you let Princess Chun's most important Mama Lu send them? Why did you send them to the small mountain residence and didn't show them to me?"

He was asked with a blank face.

The old lady sighed and said: "You are shrewd on weekdays, and when it is critical, you think about that cheapness, and you can't use it at all." ”

"Reward a little girl, they are all to give some clothes to wear and eat, but you also saw yesterday, and the first thing is two boxes of ornaments. This was specially sent to her by the county lord of Jianing when he saw that Yuan Niang's room was empty. ”

"The princess also sent Mama Lu to send her directly to the small mountain residence, which looked like a courtesy, but in fact, it was to say that I was mean to my granddaughter and supported her. ”

The old lady glared at He: "Although I don't want to see her, you shouldn't try her like this, just live in Lanwan Garden, it's his old son who nodded." But you should also clean up that house, so that people can see it and laugh at us. ”

He was aggrieved in his heart, and said in his heart that this was all instructed by you, I haven't seen you say anything for so long, and now I have lost face, but I am all to blame.

I was unhappy, but I didn't dare to say it, so I held my breath and carried this black pot down: "It's my dereliction of duty that I didn't do a good job in this family." ”

Seeing that she obediently admitted her mistakes, the old lady felt a little more comfortable, and comforted her: "You are young, and in front of a huge family, it is understandable to take care of one or the other, just don't do it again." ”

After thinking about it, he said, "What is Yuan Niang's monthly rule?"

He said: "Ten taels a month, unmarried young lady, this is the convention." ”

The old lady looked at her and said nothing.

The rules are like this, but which young lady has no reward, no parents' subsidy? Just ten taels of silver, rouge and gouache are not enough.

But she didn't like Qin E, she listened to it, and she didn't stand up for her.

Seeing that she didn't ask again, He Shi breathed a sigh of relief. She did give ten taels a month, but Qin E and Qin Yan together had a total of ten taels.
