Liu's, Su Ying, Su Baixi, Su Yueming and others also sat down on both sides in order of the elder and the youngest.
Concubine Zhen only left two palace maids to serve by her side, and the rest of the servants who accompanied her out of the palace waited outside Yonghe Garden.
With the relatives of her mother's family in private, Concubine Zhen's attitude is much more casual.
"Mother, how are you doing lately?" In private, Concubine Zhen called the eldest lady her mother, and she held the old lady's hand and asked.
At the age of fifteen, he was elected to the palace, and after more than ten years, he returned home twice in total, and this was the second time.
The old lady was also anxious, her eyes couldn't help but be a little ruddy, and she nodded again and again, "Good, good, all good." ”
Concubine Zhen looked at the eldest lady of the housewife again, smiled at the corner of her lips, and asked, "The affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion are busy, how is my sister-in-law?" ”
The eldest lady also nodded with a smile and said, "It's all good, it's all good." ”
Then, Concubine Zhen gave the old lady the congratulatory gifts she brought from the palace, and brought some things to the ladies present, Su Baixi got a pair of jade Ruyi, Su Yueming got a jade pot, Liu got a pair of carved gold bracelets, and the others also got a lot of good things.
Concubine Zhen is favored by the emperor, and she naturally gets a lot of treasures, so she is so bold when she goes home and returns to Ning.
Everyone was very happy after getting the gift, and the whole Yonghe Garden seemed to be happy on the surface, but as for what they were actually thinking, only they knew it.
"By the way, the Queen Mother also asked me to bring out two things, Caixia and Baiyun......"
With that, two reliable personal palace maids each stepped forward with two gifts.
Concubine Zhen stretched out her slender jade hand, took one of the gifts in her hand, pinched a corner of each hand, shook it slightly, and suddenly, the golden light in this room was shining, and everyone's face was covered with a layer of golden light.
"What a beautiful and luxurious dress." Everyone was dazzled by the golden clothes in front of them, and they were amazed again and again.

The old lady was overjoyed to see that the Queen Mother had given her such rare and precious clothes, and quickly got up and took it with both hands, and said, "Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother." ”
Then, Concubine Zhen took another gift and said, "This is the Golden Silk Eight Treasures Beaded Bun." ”
"This hairpin is really beautiful, and it looks priceless."
