Princess Sun remembered the grace of Venerable Su Hui's guidance, and had no intention of putting up a stand in front of Zong Zhengke, so she stretched out her hand and said, "The third girl is exempt from courtesy," and said with a smile, "This concubine likes it when she sees the three girls, and she has a little courtesy, please accept it." ”

Mama Sun took out a small red sandalwood gold wooden box, and did not open it for others to see, and presented it directly to Zong Zhengke. Zong Zhengke generously accepted this must-be meeting gift and thanked Princess Sun.

With Princess Sun as an example, Zong Zhengke also received a lot of greeting gifts when he met Princess Xin and the other three wives who were also relatives of the royal family. Lou Gongren sent a few palace maids to keep these meeting gifts properly, and then bring them to Zong Zhengke when he left.

As for the other five girls of the Zongzheng family, the two princesses and the three ladies also had gifts, but they were all given together and not given in person. is finally the daughter of a scholarly family, and the five Zongzheng girls all look good, at least on the surface, there is nothing unusual.

The old lady hurriedly took her daughter-in-law and granddaughters to salute and thank her, and the eldest princess couldn't help but say a few kind words, but it was far less approachable than when they met in the Temple of Mercy and Grace that day. As for the two princesses, they didn't have any closeness, which made Mrs. Ren very disappointed.

However, when it was time to present the birthday gift, the old lady Ren cheered up again, feeling that the birthday gift prepared by her granddaughter would definitely make the eldest princess look at them differently. Maybe I will get some favor on this, and it will also be beneficial to the marriage of my granddaughters.

Of course, the granddaughters in Mrs. Ren's heart are limited to Zong Zhengyu and Zong Zhengyue. Not to mention the granddaughter, even the fourth girl, Zong Zhengxi, was never in her eyes - because she was filling the house, and she had to give concubines to the deceased main house, she paid special attention to the difference between the concubines.

Zong Zhengjin has already prepared a birthday gift for the Zong Zhengjia, and Mrs. Ren, Mrs. Ping, Mrs. Ping, and Mrs. Liu San will not prepare anything else. The six Zongzheng girls, the concubine girl did not have this blessing to give a gift to the eldest princess, so according to the head of the house, the concubines prepared a birthday gift and planned to present it in front of the eldest princess.

The female official of the eldest princess's mansion knew about this in advance. And he began to sing. According to the row at the head of the room, Zong Zhengke took the agarwood square box carved with the five bats holding the longevity picture from Mingxin's hand, and said softly: "The little girl embroidered a pair of kang screens and a hand-copied Buddhist scripture to congratulate His Highness on a thousand years of peace." ”

Kang screen is a very ordinary birthday gift. The eldest princess has received many similar gifts. Because the eldest princess salutes the Buddha, not to mention the ordinary hand-copied Buddhist scriptures, it is the birthday ceremony of various Buddhist scriptures embroidered on the precious embroidery, and her warehouse is also piled up into a hill.

With the eldest princess's generous treatment of Zong Zhengke, Zong Zhengke's gift is a little light. It's not even very attentive. But the eldest princess was not disappointed, not only accepted it with a smile, but also placed it directly in her hand, and at the same time ordered to give Zong Zhengke a rich return gift.

Next were the sisters Zong Zhengyu and Zong Zhengyue, who stepped forward to salute the eldest princess. Zong Zhengyu had just the right gentle smile on his face, and said softly: "The little female sister is rough and blue, so she cheekily gave His Highness a self-made painting. Together with Zong Zhengyue, he said in a crisp voice, "May Your Highness live forever in youth and live forever!" ”

The girl's family in the scholarly family, her own birthday gift. It's hard to get something golden. Zong Zhengyu and Zong Zhengyue discussed for a long time, and asked people to go outside to inquire carefully, before they settled on this self-made painting, which really took a lot of thought.

Two palace maids took out the scroll, and one held a scroll on one side and slowly unfolded the scroll. The eldest princess's eyes lit up, and she immediately showed a look of sincere joy, obviously quite fond of this painting. Old Lady Ren's heart slowly put down when she mentioned her throat, and she didn't forget to take a look at Zong Zhengke, who had an indifferent face.

It turned out that Zong Zhengyu inquired about the eldest princess Ya Danqing. Recently, I have been particularly fond of Mr. Crane's paintings, so I cleverly conceived and worked with Zong Zhengyue to put together three humorous pictures of Mr. Crane's animals that have been circulating in the market to create a unique painting.

His grandson is Mr. Xianhe. The eldest princess knew it clearly, and this painting just scratched the itch in her heart. And people are old, but their childlike innocence rises, and they also like those funny and cute animal humorous pictures. This painting, she really caught her eye.

The eldest princess nodded again and again, and praised: "The eldest girl and the sixth girl are in good spirits, and they are beautiful and wise." It's a strange thought. I like this painting very much, and I appreciate it! A female official carefully rolled up the painting, put it back in the painting box, and held it directly into the inner room.

Both Zong Zhengyu and Zong Zhengyue were confident and felt that this painting must be outstanding. But they still didn't expect to be so loved by the eldest princess, and they couldn't help but show a little surprise. The two of them tried to suppress their excitement and retreated, and Zong Zhengyue did not forget to hand Zong Zhengke a meaningful look.

Mrs. Ren was naturally so happy that she was very proud of her two granddaughters. The second girl, Zong Zhengci, was on fire in her heart, clenching her palms hard, but she was deeply sad about her origin, and a certain thought in her heart instantly rose.

Zong Zhengyou, the fifth girl in the third room, was originally not qualified to give gifts, but she was born and held in Mrs. Liu's house, and she had a deep relationship with the fourth girl, Zong Zhengxi, so Zong Zhengxi ignored Mrs. Ren's words and pulled her sister to prepare a birthday gift together.

The two little girls didn't know what to give as a gift, so they naturally asked their mother for advice. Mrs. Liu San didn't let them bother more, just let the two of them embroider a purse and carefully tie a safe knot.

However, Mrs. Liu San and Aunt Chun are both from Yunhang Mansion, and the exquisite embroidery work passed down by both families has been passed on to their two daughters. Therefore, despite their young age, the embroidery work of Zong Zhengyou and Zong Zhengxi sisters is quite outstanding.

The eldest princess was very happy to see that these two lovely little girls with dough and jade snow could offer such exquisite embroidery, and then look at the cute white cat fluttering butterflies embroidered on it, and the complex and delicate peace knots.

Although everyone couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, how could such an embroidery be the handwriting of a young girl of this age? When Mrs. Liu San explained nervously, the eldest princess and the others were relieved. After all, there are really a few girls in Yunhang Mansion who don't know how to embroider.

The eldest princess smiled and said, "It's not nothing, the mother of the girl is stupid." I still remember years ago, she once gave me a sachet, the stitch ...... Tut-tut...... It's better to be these two, and reward the two girls. ”

The disgust in her tone can be heard by everyone, but the closeness between the eldest princess and Mrs. Xiao can also be heard by a person. And they laughed. (To be continued.) )
