Chapter 359: A Hot Reward
This night, there was no sleep in the palace, and outside the palace, there was also its own liveliness.
The Yan family, Yuxiu and Yushu instructed the restaurant to send two tables of wine and food, the front yard let Mu Hai take everyone to eat, and the inner courtyard Liu Wu took everyone.
The two sisters, Yuxiu and Yushu, ate a little, and then went back to the courtyard to wait for Xin'er.
didn't wait for Yuliang to come back, but he heard a commotion outside.
Mu Hai hurriedly asked Liu Wu to hurry up and say: The palace has sent rewards to the two ladies.
Yuxiu heard that the palace sent a reward, but she was a little stunned, Yuliang hasn't come back yet, and this reward is coming?
The eunuch who could send the reward had already arrived at the gate of the mansion, and Yuxiu didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly ordered the front yard to lay incense and other things, and knelt down to thank her.
There were still a lot of rewards in the palace, and the middle-aged eunuch in the lead politely asked people to put things in the hall.
Yudong and Yuliang were not there at home, Mu Hai and others were not enough, Yuxiu could only thank him, and after thanking him, he stepped forward to thank the middle-aged eunuch and politely invited him to drink a cup of tea.
Mama Gong knew the greed of the eunuch and handed over a few large purses.
The middle-aged eunuch actually put it off before he was willing to take it.
"I am tired of my father-in-law's hard work, and the saint has given so many rewards, but my brother is ...... at the palace banquet."
"You are the eldest lady of the Yan family, right?" the eunuch accepted the reward with a smile, "Xiao Langjun got the blue eyes of the saint at the palace banquet, and the saint heard that the Yan family's family depends on the eldest lady to take care of it, and the eldest sister is like a mother, and she has worked hard, so she specially ordered our family to send a Mid-Autumn Festival reward." ”
The eunuch said, and pointed to a brocade box on the table, "Here are the jewelry that has just been paid tribute this year, and the saint specially gave it to the eldest lady." After speaking, he also showed a meaningful smile.
That smile made Yuxiu's back sink, and she felt indescribably weird, this eunuch's attitude was too kind, this reward was too rich, and why did he have it for himself alone?
A series of thoughts flashed in his heart, and Yuxiu just smiled and said gratefully, "The Holy Emperor's grace is vast, and it is really a joy for the family to give up his brother to get the emperor's grace." ”
After the eunuch left, Mu Hai and the others said that it was really an eye-opener, and they had never seen anything from the imperial gift in their lives.
Yuxiu asked everyone to go to the restaurant to add a few dishes, and they were rewarded, and the glory of the master's family should make the whole house happy.
After everyone left, Yuxiu opened a few brocade boxes, only to feel that as soon as they were opened, they were full of jewels.
In these brocade boxes, the jade ring hairpin hairpin, to name a few, the most surprising thing is that in one of the boxes, a pearl hairpin inlaid with southern pearls.
Yushu looked at these jewels and couldn't help but ask Yuxiu, "Sister, the saint is really good to Xiaosi, and he actually rewarded so many good things." ”
Yuxiu echoed on her face, and said to Yushu, "Xiaosi has earned face for us, you go to the kitchen first, and then let someone prepare a few of his favorite foods." He was at the palace banquet, but he was afraid that he would not have time to eat. ”
"Xiao Si's favorite food, the cook can't make it, so I'll do it. Yushu lifted the corner of her skirt and ran to the kitchen.
Yuxiu called Mama Gong, "Mama, you have seen a lot, are these rewards too generous?"
When Mama Gong saw the bead hairpin just now, she was a little shocked. She is no more experienced than others, and her first reaction is to go to see Yuxiu.
She saw that Yuxiu's face was slightly cold, and she hurriedly swallowed back the words she was about to pour out, and now that Yuxiu spoke, she thought for a while and replied, "The slave maid has been in the capital for all these years, and she has also seen the rewards in the palace. When the holy gods rewarded, they were mostly jewelry and antiques, and the tribute jewelry was given to the families of foreign ministers, all of which were rewarded by the queen mother and the queen mother. ”
Sure enough, something is wrong!
Yuxiu only felt a cold sweat in her palms. She has the experience of her previous life, and she is no longer a little lady who has never been in the world. Seeing those jewelry, it is like the entanglement of those benefactors of Qinglou, just to win a smile from the beauties.
But Emperor Wu, who had never seen himself, how could he think of rewarding these?
"It may also be that Xiao Langjun is winning glory in front of the emperor today, and I heard that the lords and envoys of those small border countries are here today. Xiao Langjun's flower and bird characters are the first in the world. Seeing Yuxiu's confused look, Mama Gong guessed that the eldest lady should not have been able to face the saint, so she had to guess better.
Yuxiu can only think like this first, after all, the eunuch just said that it was Yuliang who mentioned that the family relied on his own care, and Emperor Wu gave the reward.
The royal gifts should not be neglected, and she and the palace grandmother moved these things to the wing room to collect them.
It wasn't until midnight that the carriage sounded, and it was Yuliang who had returned.
Yuliang was young, and when he was in front of the palace, he was excited and watched the palace banquet lively, but he didn't feel anything. When he got into the carriage, he couldn't stay up from drowsiness.
After the carriage stopped, he followed Yan to the carriage and took Yuliang out.
The carriage was sent by Li Chengyun, and the little guy who followed the carriage was eloquent, and said all kinds of Yuliang at the banquet, and after receiving the reward, he drove the carriage back to restore his life.
Sui Yan put Yuliang on the bed, Yuliang turned over, and fell asleep.
Yuxiu swallowed back what she wanted to ask, let Sui Yan bring water in, washed Yuliang's face by herself, took off his clothes and shoes and socks, covered him with a quilt, and let him sleep well.
Yushu cooked a few dishes, and when she heard that Yuliang had already slept, she put the dishes in the kitchen first, and she and Yuxiu also went back to the house to rest.
Walking back to the courtyard, the moon in the courtyard was as bright as silver, "Sister, the moon here doesn't seem to be as round as our house." ”
Yuxiu looked up, nodded and said, "Yes, if we are at home, when the moon is hanging in the sky and there are crickets everywhere, we can also go to the river to admire the moon." ”
"You can also eat the salt-and-pepper loach made by my sister, I haven't eaten it for a long time. When Yushu thought of the Mid-Autumn Festival, she thought of the beginning, when the four brothers and sisters went home down, Yuxiu made salt and pepper loach to add vegetables. The four of them ate happily in the courtyard.
At that time, I was admiring the moon in the yard, leaning on the bayberry tree planted by my father, listening to the roaring flow of the river outside the door, and the fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
Yushu thought about her home and asked Yuxiu, "Sister, when are we going home?"
Go home?
"Tomorrow, we'll go home tomorrow. By the way, I can also go to Yanshan to see Master Hong and Uncle Hong, and I don't know how their injuries are. When Yuxiu heard Yushu say to go home, she felt like an arrow in her heart, and blurted out that she would say tomorrow.
Although the capital is a prosperous place, the memories she left in the capital are never good. What's more, in the current capital, there is no Zhou Ming and no Yudong......
She was full of fear and couldn't speak, it turned out that she was really just a weak woman? Perhaps, it was because she thought that someone could shelter her from the wind and rain, so she became a weak woman, right?
"There are also uncles and aunts, I don't know if my uncle is fat or thin now. When Yushu heard that she would go home tomorrow, she smiled and didn't think that Yuxiu said that there was anything wrong with leaving tomorrow. She also doesn't like the capital, and she has long wanted to go home.
The sisters thought that they would go home tomorrow, but they couldn't sleep happily, so they simply packed their luggage in the house first.
