Chapter 306 Provocation
Qi Rong went directly to the front yard when he left Tingxiang Courtyard, and then went out of the house, and did not return until early in the morning, changed his clothes and entered the palace to participate in the court meeting. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Seeing that Qi Rong didn't spend the night in Tingxiang Courtyard, the agitation in the house finally calmed down a little, but someone thought he saw hope and was stirring in the room.
When she got up early, Bi Xi looked at Qian's mother worriedly, "Mom, the prince didn't spend the night in Tingxiang Courtyard last night. ”
Mother Qian's right hand with the hairpin paused, and then smiled: "If you are not here, you are not here, and it is none of our business to leave or right." ”
Bixi took the hairpin in Qian's mother's hand and helped insert it into the hairpin, "Why is it none of our business, I offended the red sleeves yesterday." ”
Mother Qian frowned slightly, "This hairpin is not good-looking, it's too quiet, let's change it to a green hairpin." ”
Bi Xi looked at the gold silk inlaid ruby double luan dotted emerald hairpin on the bun, blinked, and carefully chose a bat-pattern-inlaid enamel dot emerald hairpin from the makeup of the mirror stand, "Mom looks good at this one." ”
Mother Qian glanced at it and nodded casually, Bi Xi hurriedly changed it, "This morning, I made my mother's favorite jade dumplings in the kitchen, and I also cooked goat milk, and I helped my mother bring some back." ”
Mother Qian looked at the breakfast set on the kang table, and felt depressed for no reason, when she needs to be so careful when she eats something, what fresh food in the house was not sent directly to her before?
"Is the prince back today?"
Bixi nodded hurriedly, "I'm back, I didn't come back until the beginning of the day, and I changed my clothes in the front yard and went directly to the court." ”
The corners of Mother Qian's mouth hooked up a smile, "You will prepare Lianxiang's dowry list, and you will go with me to see the princess later." ”
Bi Xi was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated: "Mom, this is not good, after all, the prince did not stay overnight in Tingxiang Courtyard, you go to tell the princess like this, if there is really a good one, how can you explain to the prince?"
Mother Qian glanced at Bi Xi funny, "Do you know such a simple truth?"
"Then what is my mother looking for the princess?"
"Naturally, I went to meet people and talk. ”
Looking at Qian's mother's mysterious appearance, Bi Xi hurriedly asked, "Who does Mom want to see?"
Mother Qian pursed her lips and smiled, beckoning, "Come here with your ears." Then he whispered in Bixi's ear.
After breakfast, Mother Qian took Bixi to Jinxiang Courtyard, just as Zhen Wanyi had breakfast and was about to go out for a walk.
The red sleeves standing at the door glared when he saw Mother Qian coming in alone, and said in a strange voice: "Yo, Mother Qian is a distinguished guest, how can you have time to come here." ”
Mother Qian walked straight in the direction of Zhen Wanyi, got up and said with a smile after saluting: "Princess, this red-sleeved girl couldn't eat the cannon early in the morning, and her anger is so big." ”
Zhen Wanyi also glanced at the red sleeves strangely, she hadn't seen her appear since last night, and she looked like she was looking like she saw her this morning. But in the face of Qian's mother, she still defended her own people, "She, her body is not comfortable, mother don't care about her." Why did Mom have time to come over today?"
Mother Qian didn't hold on to her red sleeves, and took out a list from her sleeve pocket, "This is the dowry list that Mama Mu asked me to list, saying that it was according to Mother Li's example, but I don't know how much dowry Mother Li put when she got married, this capital is not as good as Qinghe City, and it is not easy to put the same dowry with the same amount of silver, so I have to let the princess help palm my eyes." ”
Zhen Wanyi took the list, "Hard work mother." After speaking, he lowered his head and flipped through it, full of three pieces of rice paper, a beautiful hairpin in his hand, and couldn't help but look up and praise: "Mom wrote a good hand." ”
Mother Qian smiled slightly with her head bowed, not modestly objecting.
Zhen Wanyi didn't say much when she saw it, and put away the list, "I can't figure it out for a while, I'll let her see it when Yingyue comes back, she always remembers what was prepared for her back then." ”
Mother Qian bent her knees, "That's it, the slave will retire first, and if the princess has anything to change, please give an order." ”
Zhen Wanyi nodded, "Mother Qian walks slowly." ”
Mother Qian turned around and took two steps and paused, "Princess, the sun is not yet strong at this time, the lotus leaves over there are Qingyi Water Pavilion, and the willows are hanging low, there is a good scene, and the princess must be in a better mood if she goes there for a walk." ”
Zhen Wanyi was stunned, and then said, "When my mother said this, I was a little moved. ”
Mother Qian bent her knees and walked out again, and when she went up to the verandah, she saw Bi Xi coming over and nodded, "Mom, can you show Sister Lianxiang's dowry list to the princess?
The corner of Qian's mother squinted at the red figure behind the laurel tree in the courtyard and pretended not to see it, "Yes, the princess didn't say anything, only said that she would discuss it when Mother Li came back." ”
Bi Xi pursed her lips, "Mother Li is back and Lianxiang is so good." The dowry of two hundred taels of silver in Qinghe City is enough to buy thirty-six dowries, but the same amount of silver will be reduced by at least half when it is purchased in the capital. ”
Mother Qian said with a smile: "What nonsense?"
"Mom, I'm not talking nonsense, I heard that Mother Li wants the princess's room earlier, which is very valued by the princess, and even the marriage is for Mother Li to see each other in person, but you look at Sister Lianxiang, she quietly chose such a person, I heard that the little lady of the Fei family can make a fuss at home, I said why did Mr. Fei delay making a small decision, these eight characters have been combined. ”
Mother Qian raised her eyebrows, "What is the little lady of the Fei family making a fuss?"
Bixi covered her mouth and smiled for a while, "Didn't I hear that the stepmother was born as a maid and was unhappy, they all said that this scholar is high, but I didn't expect this scholar's daughter to be so high-minded, how to say that it is also a big girl from our palace, and she was disgusted by a seven-year-old girl." ”
Mother Qian sighed, "Alas, it's embarrassing for this stepmother." ”
"It's not, it's a pity that Sister Lianxiang is so beautiful and beautiful, she wants to be a stepmother, if she stays in the house, it is a thousand times stronger than marrying out to be a stepmother. Yesterday, the prince went to Concubine Hong, I am afraid that Concubine Hong's good days are coming, but it is a pity that Concubine Hong's body is not good, otherwise, maybe the prince will stay overnight last night, if he can get a man and a woman, he will have a lifelong support. ”
Mother Qian also nodded, "Previously, the princess and princess had just gotten married, and they had known each other since childhood, and watched the princess grow up, so they naturally loved the princess in every way, but this man is the most new and loves colors, otherwise the princess would not let me send the palace trick given by His Majesty to the back alley, not because I am afraid that the princess will be dazzled." ”
Bi Xi nodded, and with the figure that gradually faded away, a faint voice of conversation and laughter came, "That's why it's a pity to say that Sister Lianxiang is marrying like this." ”
