Chapter 56: Rewarded
Helian Zisang walked alone on the somewhat trendy path, walked into a small tavern at a turn, and asked for a few catties of osmanthus stuffed flowers and a few dishes and sat down to eat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Why is the second master free? I heard that you got married, and I haven't been here for a long time. A woman dressed in sackcloth who looked to be about twenty years old put down the side dishes and stood aside.
Helian Zisang glanced at the woman, and said lazily: "There's nothing going on in the shop lately, right?" β
The woman smiled slightly, although she was wearing a cloth coat, her temperament was not half a point worse than that of everyone, and said, "Second Master Xie is worried, what can happen to this little shop?" β
Helian Zisang glanced at her meticulous hair, sighed and said, "My wife's shop has a cook, do you want to get out of here?" β
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then looked away with ethereal eyes, and her voice was soft as if it came from afar, and she said, "Second master, can you still survive if you go out?" β
Helian Zisang lowered his eyes and looked at the wine glass in his hand and said, "I let you out, and I can save your life." β
The woman was silent for a moment, then smiled.
As night fell, after Twilight had finished dinner and rested, he was about to go back to the inner room to practice, when he saw Chen'er coming over with a bowl of things.
Twilight stood still: "What is this?" β
Chen'er put the things down with a smile and said respectfully: "Second young grandmother, this is the beauty bird's nest sent by Mrs. Shizi, and she also said that it is better to drink it before going to bed at night." β
Twilight's eyes lit up, it turned out that there was such a thing as bird's nest here, and I thought there was really nothing here! Twilight never cared about appearance before, so this kind of expensive but chicken bird's nest, Twilight has never eaten it, and Twilight is very curious about what the taste of bird's nest is. Yes, after Chen'er finished speaking, Twilight picked up the spoon and tasted it.
Well, there is nothing peculiar other than tasting sweetness. Twilight returned to the inner room with some disappointment, telling Chen'er not to disturb.
This night, Helian Zisang did not come to Mowen Hospital, and as soon as he got up early the next morning, he heard people saying that all the gambling houses in the capital had been closed.
Twilight's first thought was Helian Zisang, and asked Chen'er that the person hadn't returned home yet, so Twilight went to her sister-in-law to gossip to see if she could get anything she didn't know.
Yesterday, Twilight had a good chat with her sister-in-law, and recently she has a good relationship with her sister-in-law. It's just that as soon as I entered the house today, I smelled a smell of medicine, and Twilight frowned that it was fine yesterday, and I took the medicine today?
Twilight wanted to go in to visit her sister-in-law, but the maid next to her said that it was inconvenient to meet guests. Twilight was very strange and asked the maid, who only said that she had contracted the wind chill last night.
Now in late autumn and early winter, it is indeed cold and hot, but Twilight never imagined that the plump body of the eldest sister-in-law would be so delicate.
Twilight could only go back to her yard in disgrace, but as soon as she walked into her yard, Twilight saw someone who was not supposed to be here. Twilight blinked, then asked Xiang Chen'er, "Can you see someone sitting in the courtyard?" β
Chen'er looked at Twilight Chi suspiciously and said, "The slave can see it, Miss Liu was picked up by her uncle today, and Miss Liu has been living in another courtyard for a while, so she should naturally come back." β
Ha? After going to the palace that day, Twilight thought that a beauty like Liu Yang would be difficult to see anymore, so when she was bored, she often thought of Liu Yang and regretted her departure for a while.
When did Ryuyang go to the other courtyard? Wasn't he picked up by the third prince? Why did Helian Zisang snatch people back?
Liu Yang sat on the stone bench, and when he saw Twilight, he hurriedly got up and walked over, with a good-looking smile on his face, and said, "I've seen the second young grandmother." β
How is this scene a bit like meeting Liu Yang for the first time? The first time we met, it was pretty much the same.
Twilight showed a warm smile when she first met Liu Yang, but this time Twilight didn't dare to grab someone's hand and eat tofu, what if Liu Yang's man knew that he was jealous?
Twilight carefully looked at her face, and found that her jade-like little face was red and not moisturized, and immediately smiled: "I haven't seen her for a while, Miss Liu is really getting more and more beautiful." β
A faint flush appeared on Liu Yang's face, and he smiled and bowed his head silently. As early as when the third prince communicated to the second young master, the second young master's letter also stated that Twilight knew her identity, and now Liu Yang finally didn't feel that this second young grandmother was scheming, and after being quiet for the past few days, he thought about it, but felt that although this second young grandmother behaved strangely, she really didn't have any bad intentions.
It's just that as soon as she came back, she learned that Meiniang was sent back to her parents' house, and she was a little surprised and felt reasonable. The concubine who is too arrogant can't last long, Mei Niang just entered the Hou Mansion is a pet, and no one understands the side effects of the pets better than her.
Liu Yang, as always, accompanied Twilight to drink tea and chat in the courtyard, this kind of day is really like the life of the young grandmother that Chenchen envies.
When Helian Zisang came back, the entire Hou Mansion was noisy, and many maids were still happy on their faces. There is no other reason, Helian Zisang just came out of the palace, did he come out with a reward, or did the father-in-law beside the saint go out of the palace with the reward.
The people of the house rejoiced, as if they were the ones who had received the reward. On the contrary, Twilight didn't feel much, thinking that his reward should be obtained after the gambling houses in the capital were exhausted, and there would be one less place to have fun when he left the mansion in the future.
Although Twilight was not very happy, she still took her maid to the front yard. When he arrived at Helian Zisan's courtyard, the father-in-law beside the saint had already left, because there was no holy decree, just to send the reward, and there was no need for the entire Hou Mansion to kneel and thank him.
When she entered the house, she was looking at the silk and two jewel boxes placed in the main hall, and Helian Zisang was lying on the table and didn't know what to do, and she didn't even notice that she had come in.
With a faint smile on his face, Shi Shiran walked over, and when he looked over, he saw a pair of light blue jade pendants in his hand and looked at them carefully.
Twilight couldn't help but ask, "What's so strange about Xianggong's jade pendant?" β
Helian Zisan's hand holding the jade pendant stiffened for a moment, and then when he looked up, he saw that Twilight Chi had opened those big eyes, revealing a little naΓ―ve and a little puzzled. Helian Zisang's ears turned red inexplicably, and he withdrew his gaze to his face and said seriously: "It's nothing strange, it's just that this is a rare beautiful jade in the world, and if you look closely, you can find that there are waves of light flowing in it, and you can't help but be stunned for a while." β
This jade was sent by Shang Cheng after losing the gamble, and the gambling house was indeed reported by Helian Zisang, but he grabbed Shang Cheng and said that he was a four-rank life official beforehand, and he first turned the handle in Shang Cheng's hand into useless work. The gambling house was closed, although he had no intention of inviting credit, just to avoid Shang Chengdong and let people impeach him, but the queen mother thought that he "changed his evil and returned to the right" to let the saint reward the object.
Hearing this, Twilight Chi leaned over and looked at it again, and after looking at it for a while, he felt that the jade light blue was faintly transparent, and it looked very beautiful, and I believe that the value of this jade pendant is more beautiful.
