Chapter 760 Gift-Giving and Circumcision
When it was Situ Yanfei's turn, it was she who gave Zhuo Qing a salute and called out affectionately: "Third sister-in-law." "The two of them are the most intimate handkerchief friends, and the relationship is naturally extraordinary.
The family sat down around a table for breakfast, and there was no distinction of condescension or inferiority.
Just picked up the chopsticks, the next person came to report, Tong Yuwen came to the door.
Zhuo Qing noticed that without waiting for her sister-in-law's instructions, the subordinate had automatically added a pair of chopsticks to the dining table, completely treating Tong Yuwen as her own family.
In order to marry Situ Weiguo, Zhuo Qing often went to Situ Mansion to find Situ Yanfei, and naturally she was also very familiar with Tong Yuwen.
Not long after the subordinates retreated, they led Tong Yuwen in.
Everyone stood up to greet them.
After Tong Yuwen greeted everyone, he handed the brocade box he had been holding in his hand to Zhuo Qing. "Miss Qing, oh no, it's time to change your name to sister-in-law. I punish myself! After saying that, he slapped himself twice on the left cheek with a playful face, amusing everyone.
Zhuo Qing is also very familiar with Tong Yuwen, and unceremoniously accepted the brocade box and handed it to Ziyuan behind him.
Everyone sat down for breakfast and had a good time.
After breakfast, Situ Weiguo told Zhuo Qing to go back to his room early to rest, and he went to practice.
Even if he didn't fight, he didn't waste his martial arts for a day.
The two widowed sisters-in-law also went back to their rooms.
Tong Yuwen and Situ Yanfei accompanied Zhuo Qing back to the room.
After entering the house, Zhuo Qing couldn't drive the two of them away immediately even if she wanted to rest, so she beckoned them and ordered Ziyuan and the others to serve tea and snacks.
Situ Yanfei and Zhuo Qing kept chatting, and Tong Yuwen watched quietly drinking tea.
Calculating the time in his heart, Tong Yuwen looked at Situ Yanfei and suddenly asked, "Cousin, I remember that when my cousin came back from the frontier, he helped you bring a few gadgets from other countries, can you send one to me?" ”
Situ Yanfei asked in surprise: "When the third brother gave it to me before, didn't you say you didn't want it?" Why are you interested again now? ”
Zhuo Qing glanced at Tong Yuwen, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled: "Yanfei, he, he must be holding gadgets to please his sweetheart." "This sweetheart must be the fifth princess, no doubt.
Situ Yanfei twisted her eyebrows when she heard this, looked at Tong Yuwen's acquiescence, and said worriedly: "The fifth princess is a daughter, haven't you seen anything?" Cousin, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to give her these gadgets, right? ”
Tong Yuwen smiled and said, "It's okay, I have prepared other gifts." ”
“…… All right. Situ Yanfei stood up and asked, "You go back to the room with me to get it?" "Although she doesn't like the fifth princess, who makes Tong Yuwen, a cousin, like it! She could only reluctantly accept it.
Tong Yuwen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I'm too lazy to move, you go back to the room and bring it to me, go quickly." ”
"Hey! You're not at all polite! Situ Yanfei crossed her hands on her hips and glared at Tong Yuwen.
Tong Yuwen raised his eyebrows with a hippie smile and said, "We are not outsiders, so we need to be polite?" Hurry up, I'll wait. ”
“…… You wait! After Situ Yanfei glared at Tong Yuwen helplessly, she obediently went to get it.
After Tong Yuwen saw Situ Yanfei leave, he retracted his gaze and looked at Zhuo Qing. "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you for something."
Zhuo Qing was vigilant in her heart, and asked gently: "Now that you and I have become a family, there is no need to speak so politely." ”
Tong Yuwen smiled with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I want to ask my sister-in-law for you to ask for a piece of jewelry for the fifth princess."
You also know that I am a big man and I don't understand the quality of jewelry.
And the jewelry sold in the silver building outside is not exquisite enough, where can you compare to your sister-in-law, you were born in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you are knowledgeable, and the jewelry on your body has an extraordinary origin. After speaking, he took out a small brocade box from his cuff, and after opening it in front of Zhuo Qing, only a huge ruby was placed inside.
"Give it to my sister-in-law." Push to Zhuo Qing's side.
Zhuo Qing glanced at the dazzling ruby in the brocade box, the large size was very rare, but he was still reserved and did not stretch out his hand.
looked up at Tong Yuwen and smiled meaningfully.
It's no wonder that he gave gifts as soon as they met at breakfast, and now he flattered her so much.
In the past, in order to marry Situ Weiguo, she had curryed favor with everyone in Situ Mansion, including Tong Yuwen in front of her.
Now feng shui takes turns, and it is the other party's turn to please her.
Reached out and pushed the brocade box back. "Now we are a family, I am your cousin-in-law, giving the princess a piece of jewelry that may become my future brother and sister, don't you look down on your sister-in-law like this?"
Tong Yuwen smiled and pushed the brocade box towards Zhuo Qing again. "It's just because it's a family, so it's not good for your sister-in-law to break the bank. After all, it is unusual to please the princess, and when the time comes, let my sister-in-law cut her love, Yuwen and I will also feel very guilty. ”
Zhuo Qing did not push the brocade box back with a smile in her eyes, but looked up at Ziyuan and ordered, "Go and bring my jewelry box." He looked down at Tong Yuwen and asked, "I don't know what style of jewelry Yuwen you want to give to the fifth princess?" After all, I have too much jewelry, and the princess has never seen anything rare? ”
Tong Yuwen caught a glimpse of Ziyuan not moving out of the corner of his eye, pretending to be embarrassed and thinking for a while, and then said: "The style is best to be rare, oh, by the way, she likes jade silk and gold flowers, and it is best to drop some hairpins such as silver silk tassels." ”
Zhuo Qing: So specific? It seems that I have already had an idea! Look up at the asters. "Did you hear me?"
"Yes." Zi Yuan bowed slightly, entered the inner room, and according to Tong Yuwen's request, found a hairpin on Zhuo Qing's dresser.
Tong Yuwen saw that the matter was halfway successful, his heart relaxed slightly, and he looked at Zhuo Qing and pleaded: "Sister-in-law, I hope you can keep this matter secret for me, I don't want to leak the news in advance to let the princess know, I want to surprise her." ”
"Understood, understood!" Zhuo Qing smiled and nodded.
Because Tong Yuwen also asked Situ Yanfei to give a small gift to the fifth princess, Zhuo Qing believed it without any doubts.
Soon Ziyuan walked out, and there was a similar hairpin she could find in the tray, and it was placed between Zhuo Qing and Tong Yuwen. "Miss, Yuwen Gongzi, this is all the hairpins that the slave can find according to Yuwen Gongzi's requirements."
Zhuo Qing smiled and reached out to push the tray towards Tong Yuwen. "You pick, see if you have what you like."
Yuwen immediately lowered his head and carefully selected, but he soon found that some of these hairpins were jadeite but did not have silver tassels, or both, but they did not have any golden flowers.
There is no hairpin that meets the three conditions.
Zhuo Qing looked at Tong Yuwen with a disappointed expression, and asked with concern, "Didn't you look at it?" "I was a little unhappy in my heart, although her jewelry was not as good as Zhuo Ran, but she was also one of the best among the nobles!
Tong Yuwen stared at the hairpin and didn't speak, could it be that the fifth prince remembered it wrongly? Why isn't there here?
