Chapter 6: The Reward of the King of Chu
Let him keep it, not throw it away? When Guan Yan received the veil, he caught a glimpse of the smile on the corner of Su Jingyun's lips, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart: The owner of this veil is afraid that he will be unlucky, because the king of Chu will only put a smile on his face when he wants to rectify people.
Su Jingyun looked back, looked at the high courtyard wall of the He family, and instructed Guan Yan: "Tomorrow night, prepare such clothes for this king, remember to crumple them in advance, so that you will be more like a beggar." β
Like a beggar?! That's a tribute cloud silk, a thousand gold is rare, you can't buy it with silver, and no matter how wrinkled it is, you won't look like a beggar! Who is this, so eyeless?! Guan Yan was surprised, and didn't dare to ask more, so he should only claim that it was.
Su Jingyun was about to leave, suddenly remembered something, raised his chin slightly, pointed to the courtyard of the He family, and said: "There are two newly built huts over there, which are extremely obstructive, and before dark tomorrow, this king doesn't want to see anyone in the house again." β
Is it the hut that is in the way, or is it the people in the house who are in the way? Guan Yan pondered, and left with his footstepsβ
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Cuihua got up, dragged He Tiantian out of the bed, put on her clothes, and then stuffed the needle and handkerchief into her hands, urging: "Miss, hurry up, embroider the handkerchief, otherwise the mama who teaches will come later, and you will be free again!" β
Although embroidery is also done with needles, He Tiantian is just embarrassed, and immediately interrupted: "The teachers are all gentlemen, when will grandma be able to teach?" β
"Miss, you don't change the subject! Hurry up and embroider! Although Cuihua herself felt strange, she still ruthlessly pierced He Tiantian's careful thoughts.
He Tiantian could only wail and began to wear the thread that could not be worn at all.
At this moment, the footsteps of many people came from outside the house, mixed with the laughter of He Juxin and Bai's, and went towards the two houses next to them.
He Tiantian immediately threw away the needle and thread and stood up: "So early, what did the master and wife do in the East Cross Courtyard?" Is there a happy event? β
"They went to the side, even if there is a happy event, it is also a happy event for the second or third miss, what does it have to do with us?" Cuihua knew that He Tiantian wanted to take the opportunity to get out, but she still let her go outside, and she followed - who made her curious.
As soon as they were discharged from the hospital, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
The sirf is inlaid with precious stones, the gold-painted vanity mirror, the large screen with eighteen embroidered fans, and the triple multi-treasure pavilion of Huanghuali...... All kinds of high-end furniture, vast and splendid, stretched from the corner door leading to the main courtyard to the door of He Jingjing and He Shanshan's room.
This, this is to prepare a dowry for them in advance? Even if He Juxin is the richest man in Yiling, this is a big deal!
He Tiantian amazed, and stood on tiptoe to look at the two-person tall top box behind him; Cuihua complained angrily, why none of them were moved to He Tiantian's house.
He Juxin's concubine, Aunt Qin, the biological mother of the third lady He Shanshan, was happily beckoning the people to move the furniture into the house, and suddenly turned her head, and saw He Tiantian with an exclamation on her face, and the angry Cuihua, thinking that such a good opportunity to hit the opponent could not be missed, so she quickly pulled He Shanshan, walked over with small steps, and smiled proudly at them: "Oh, eldest miss, I'm really sorry to disturb your rest, but who let the king of Chu order the first official to send a reward early in the morning!" Look at these pieces of furniture, they are exquisite, and they are valuable, there are hundreds of them, and you can almost open a furniture shop! β
It turned out that those furniture were not the dowry prepared by He Juxin, but the reward of the king of Chu...... Cuihua suddenly became excited.
The King of Chu gave He Jingjing and He Shanshan rewards, but only omitted her, does it mean that she has already been out of the game before she has seen the face of the King of Chu? He Tiantian's mood suddenly jumped with joy.
He Shanshan is used to singing and harmonizing with Aunt Qin, and when she heard this, she immediately understood, pulled her sleeve, and said angrily: "Auntie, what are you doing when you say this in front of the eldest sister, how sad she must be, I and the second sister have rewards, but she doesn't!" β
"Ah, really?!" Aunt Qin looked suddenly surprised, and covered her mouth exaggeratedly, "Oh, eldest miss, don't be angry, I really don't know that you didn't have a reward, I thought the three young ladies had it!" β
He Tiantian watched their mother and daughter write and act by themselves, entertaining themselves, and almost laughed out loud, the king of Chu looked down on her, didn't give her a reward, she was too late to be happy! They thought that by taunting her twice, they would stimulate her? What a joke!
The Bai clan was standing not far from them, and when they heard Aunt Qin and He Shanshan taunting He Tiantian, they almost exploded. Idiot! What an idiot! He Tiantian has escaped three or four times, and it is clear that he is sincerely unwilling to serve the king of Chu, so why not fulfill her wish and let her stay quietly? Why do you have to provoke her?! If she was stimulated and decided to work hard to attract the attention of the King of Chu, wouldn't they have lost a chance of winning in vain?!
This is also to blame her, in order to save effort and worry, she did everything possible to elevate a brainless concubine to the top of the house, and allowed her to give birth to a girl who was also brainless.
She raised her hand and rubbed her aching chest, and decided to send her own daughter out to solve the problem. In the blink of an eye, the king of Chu is coming, competing for favor and love, it is inevitable to work hard to step on others, it is better to start practicing from now on.
When He Jingjing received the instructions, she immediately lifted her long flower-sprinkled skirt, rushed straight towards He Shanshan, and lowered her voice in horror and asked, "Third sister, I heard that these pieces of furniture are not a reward, but a compensation for us in advance?" Because of serving the king of Chu, he took too much risk, and if he was not careful, he would be whipped, and many people would die because of it......"
While she was lying, she paid attention to He Tiantian's expression, and when she saw that she was frightened, she was very happy, and finally pulled Cuihua and retreated to her yard.
Well, it finally scared her again, and she won't compete with her for the king of Chu. He Jingjing turned her back, glared at He Shanshan fiercely, and went back to Bai's side.
In the end, it was the daughter she gave birth to who was clever, Bai patted her hand, and was about to praise a few words, when he suddenly saw He Juxin standing at the door of He Jingjing's house, wiping the sweat on his forehead, and jumping to his feet in a hurry.
She hurriedly walked over and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" β
He Juxin pointed to the two-person tall top box and said hurriedly: "This cabinet is too high to move in!" β
This...... How can they be troubled by the fact that there is too much to give? Bai couldn't cry or laugh, and came up with an idea: "Why don't you remove the door frame first, and then install it when the cabinet is moved in?" β
