Chapter 593: Retreat
When the news of Jia Hao and Qi Sile's engagement came, the last bit of pimple in Zhen Wanyi's heart disappeared cleanly, and she took advantage of the fine weather to pull Qi Qiong to clean up the warehouse.
Looking at the gold and silver jewelry that was full of flowers, glowing with a beautiful and attractive luster in the morning light, Qi Qiong only felt dizzy, and sighed with wide eyes: "Mother, my daughter thinks that your little private treasury can be compared to the queen's, and the jewelry that the second princess married is not as much as yours and not as delicate as yours." ”
Zhen Wanyi bowed her head with a big belly and inspected, most of the jewelry here was given to her by Qi Rong, and some of them were dowries prepared for her by her mother and grandfather's family and the gifts that were sent one after another, and some were given by Brother Heng and Brother Jue, all of which were exquisite and worth a lot of money.
These jewelry have witnessed her growth, like the pink bead hairpin on the left, which Zhen Xiujie bought with private money to give her when she was in time, and a pair of white jade jade peach blossom hairpins next to her were the hairpins that Qi Rong gave her for the ceremony.
"These are all saved by my mother over the years, from your father, from your grandmother and uncles, and from your uncles and grandmothers. The gems of this box were given by the mother's grandmother when the mother's concubine went to Beijing for the first time, but they are all good things, and the mother's concubine will give them as a dowry when you get married. ”
Qi Qiong's face flew red, and she looked at the various colored gems in the box, with the eyes that she had cultivated in and out of the palace for a long time, these things were rare in the palace. "Mother, these gems are too precious, you can leave them to your eldest brother."
Zhen Wanyi smiled, "Your eldest brother is the prince of Rongwangfu, he can earn it himself, and he doesn't need me to make up his daughter-in-law." You are the only daughter of King Rong's Mansion so far, and you are married to Zhen Mansion, so it is most suitable for you to take these things away. ”
Qi Qiong no longer refused when she heard this, this room was full of things, that is, in the future, the brothers and brothers would marry their daughters-in-law and enter the door, and the meeting gift of the mother concubine would not be light. The most important thing is that she really likes those gems, and if the mother is willing to give it to her, she will not refuse, and if she is not willing to give it to her, she will not force it.
"You pick out some that you can use and bring them back, and then help your concubine pick a box for your cousin Le to add makeup."
Qi Qiong helped her mother sit down and carefully picked it up.
"Mother, when is Cousin Le's wedding date, it's almost April, and Cousin Le's eighteenth birthday is coming."
Zhen Wanyi leaned on the big pillow behind her, "It should be April, and it won't be May at the latest." ”
Qi Qiong raised her eyebrows, hooked the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Mother, your delivery date is also in April, but you can't send Cousin Le to get married." ”
can't send Sister Le to get married, which means that Zhen Wanyi can't be there on the second day. It doesn't matter to Qi Mansion, after all, the Qi family only has Zhen Ruyi and Brother Xiao's mother and daughter, but for Jia Mansion, it is a big loss. Princess Rong's recognition ceremony, giving it in person and not giving it in person is a completely different meaning.
As soon as Qi Qiong reminded her, Zhen Wanyi was not sure, and glared, "You are very bothered." ”
Zhen Wanyi is also quite helpless, it is now the middle of March, and it is definitely not in a hurry at this time. can be set in April, no matter what, Zhen Wanyi doesn't dare to go out, let alone go to Jiafu to attend a wedding, in such a noisy environment, Zhen Wanyi doesn't dare to risk her life and the life of the child in her belly.
If you want both, Jia Hao and Qi Sile's wedding has to be postponed. But at the end of April, it was Qi Sile's eighteenth birthday, and if he wanted to postpone it, he had to go to the yamen to file for the record, which was too troublesome. However, Zhen Wanyi didn't want to care about this, anyway, she decided that she would not leave the house again before she gave birth. Wait until she leaves the house at least after the full moon, so that if she wants to be on her time, then Jia Hao and Qi Sile's marriage date will have to be postponed to the end of May, and Qi Rong has to agree not to let her sit in two confinements.
Qi Qiong quickly picked out two boxes of jewelry, "Mother, this box was chosen by her daughter for herself, and this box was chosen for Cousin Le." ”
Zhen Wanyi only glanced at the first box, and the second box flipped over, took out a pair of gilt twisted silver bracelets, and replaced them with a pair of jade bracelets, "No matter what, Sister Le'er's marriage can be satisfactorily resolved without hurting relatives, so it's good, it's about to be hot, it's cool to wear jade." ”
Qi Qiong pursed her lips, "I know the concubine." ”
Seeing her daughter's childish side, Zhen Wanyi smiled and shook her head, "Register the box with Luliu, let's go to the yard for a walk." ”
Qi Qiong handed the box to Lu Liu and personally helped Zhen Wanyi to walk towards the courtyard.
As soon as he left Jinxiang Courtyard, he saw Qi Rong coming towards him.
Qi Qiong saluted first, "Father, why did you go back to the house." ”
Qi Rong held Zhen Wanyi's arm and didn't let Zhen Wanyi salute, but stood side by side. "From now on, there is no need to go to the yamen as a father."
Qi Qiong was stunned and opened her mouth, but when she saw that her mother's expression had not changed, she was silent.
Zhen Wanyi smiled: "Your Majesty has allowed it?" ”
Qi Rong nodded, "In the future, I can accompany you more as a husband." ”
Zhen Wanyi's eyes lit up, her smile spread a little, and her already plump face instantly became vivid, as bright as a peach and plum, "Then when Xiao Wu comes out, I will give it all to the prince." ”
Qi Rong nodded without hesitation and said: "No problem, Wan'er worked hard before, brought up four children, and Xiao Wu was raised by her husband himself." ”
Zhen Wanyi covered her mouth and smiled: "This is what you said, Lord Wang, don't be too busy to pick a child when the time comes." ”
"Don't underestimate people. Brother Heng, although they bring little for their husbands, they also see them every day, and they know how to bring them as husbands. ”
Zhen Wanyi pursed her lips and smiled, she could say that it was because Brother Heng'er's four brothers and sisters were really easy to bring, and she could feel that this in her stomach would not be so honest.
Qi Qiong watched her father carefully supporting her mother and concubine, and the two walked side by side, taking steps of the same size, which could not tolerate others at all, walking in the spring light of March, as if they were in a peach forest, a piece of pink sweetness. [.]
