Chapter 67: Bribery
Yongtai likes that her daughter doesn't care about gold and silver things, but she doesn't blindly clear her heart about money, which is what she is most assured of.
Speaking of things, she smiled and nodded, "Give it to me, I see that the gems are as bright as pigeon's blood, and I haven't used them for jewelry yet, I am going to put on three sets of head and face jewelry, one for me and your aunts." The rest of the bracelets or hairpins are made in pieces, and the gifts are sent to your third aunt, who has been outside all the year round and has suffered a lot, and I also hurt her. She smiled and spoke.
Mingzhu waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's good that you decide." ”
Yongtai has always been generous, with good things and never forgot the three brothers and sisters, the service has always been a bowl of water, fair and generous, the concubine is very good, it can also be seen that her means and ability, the old lady has basically no matter, and the family has full power to Yongtai.
Yongtai is not authoritarian, in addition to reporting everything, he also took the initiative to let the Zhang family follow the stewardship and director, and will not be hegemonic.
Ming Ya grinned, "My mother must be happy to receive a gift." ”
The crowd laughed.
The atmosphere was very happy for a while, and after lunch Mingzhu and Ming Ya took a nap in the old lady's warm pavilion, while Jia Xuan and Jia Zhen went back to their yard to take care of it.
When Jiaxuan returned to the house, she explained to the nurse, "Mom took some chrysanthemum tea and purse to the sewing room, and the skirt I was a guest must be fine, and I can't go on a business trip." ”
"Don't worry, Miss, I'll go in a moment. There is one more thing to report. The nurse entered the house and retreated, as if she had something to say, with a look of hesitation on her face.
Jia Xuan turned her head and looked at her suspiciously, "Is there something wrong?" ”
There has been no major event in the recent period, but in the old lady's house, if there is a reward, she has never fallen behind, and she is also fighting for face, and the people dare not disobey the yin and yang anymore, what else can she do?
The nurse thought for a while and said, "It's Aunt Li's mother, Mother Qin, who wants to see you, saying that she came to visit you." ”
Jia Xuan instinctively frowned, a little unhappy in her heart, who doesn't have two poor relatives, but her relatives are really not stingy, according to the previous memory, she always comes to get money, why the original owner is always sick, it is because she was still raised by Aunt Li's side at that time, her monthly and rewards were given to Aunt Li for safekeeping, for the sake of her mother's brother and mother, Aunt Li did not hesitate to deduct her own daughter's silver money and monthly examples.
When she was a child, the gold collar and other items were all gone, there was a **** nurse, and the nurse took a long time to tell the truth, and Aunt Li took it and gave it to her mother's family.
This made Jia Xuan very disgusted with her aunt and his family, what else could people who didn't even feel sorry for their own daughter expect from her.
Jiaxuan didn't want to be treated as blood-sucking meat, and after pondering for a while, she sneered and said: "I'm too young to make my own decisions about this kind of thing, let Zhilan go and report it to her mother, and see what her mother says, if my mother says it's inconvenient to see it, I'll be gone." ”
Turned around and sat on the chaise longue and sulked, it was really unlucky, and he had the best relatives who couldn't get rid of him. But her sister Jia Zhen is also a concubine, but she is so blessed, her aunt is sensible and honest, even her mother's family is dead, her aunt was sold by her family when she fled, and she has not been contacted for a long time, and I am afraid that she is no longer there after all these years.
You see how worry-free other people's aunts are, they can help if they don't add to the chaos, his aunt is very thrifty, and all the good things are pasted on Jia Zhen's body, and he has a few old pieces of jewelry all year round, and he is reluctant to take the good ones, saying that he wants to keep them for his daughter.
Look at yourself again, it's really ...... I don't know where to start!
Seeing that Jiaxuan was resolute, the nurse sighed and went to the ward Zhilan, and Zhilan also felt pity for the second miss after hearing it, and immediately nodded, "Don't worry, Mama, I will definitely say two more good words to the second miss, the second miss treated me well in the past, this little thing is still no problem." ”
"Then thank you, girl, the girl still has some white fungus, you can take it home and make up for your younger brothers and sisters, the second lady can't finish it here, I just said I want to reward you." The nurse immediately expressed her heart.
Zhilan smiled lightly, this second lady is becoming more and more enlightened, and now the people in the yard can also be subdued, Enwei and Shi have learned well, they can't be compared with the eldest lady but they are not stupid, and they have this account in their hearts.
"Don't worry, Mama, I'm going to ask my wife to say goodbye, I haven't been here for two or three days, and I should go." Zhilan put down the embroidery work in her hand, took an orchid purple forehead, the embroidery was extremely exquisite and beautiful, and a pearl fell on it.
Wrap the forehead with a handkerchief, and bring some candy to go to the main courtyard Yongtai with a smile, and greet the little girls all the way into the door, and coax the girls to have fun with the fruits they brought, and then enter the house.
Mama An came out of the back room and saw her smile, "Why are you free to come over today?" You're not waiting, but there's something going on over there? ”
Zhilan smiled, "It's a little bit of a trivial report, mainly because I think my wife misses you, come to say hello to my wife, and look at you!" Do you think I don't? Saying that, he naughtily leaned his face over and rubbed affectionately with Mama An.
Mama An patted her funny, but there was a loving smile in her eyes, "Mrs. is taking a lunch break, you wait a while." ”
"Well, I'll talk to you, I took the time to embroider a forehead for you, can you see the eyes?" Zhilan wiped her forehead and came out to gesture to Mama An.
"Well, the craftsmanship is getting better and better, not bad! Take people's hands short, but you need my help to bribe me? Mama An smiled on her face, but her eyes flashed with a gleam.
Zhilan smiled, and then sighed, "It's not for anything else, it's for the second miss, the outer courtyard has sent a message, saying that Aunt Li's own mother is coming to see the second miss, I guess it's asking for money, and the second miss really doesn't have much money." I went and handed over all the belongings to me for safekeeping, the box only had some broken silver and copper plates, a few palace flowers in the palace, and the others were gone, I asked on the side, and the grandmother said that before the yard was divided, I asked my aunt to give it to my mother's family to sell, and it was long gone.
I pondered that I couldn't open my mouth about this, I wanted to report it to my wife, but the second lady stopped me and said, 'It was my aunt's fault, but I was still young at the time, and this matter couldn't be publicized, so that people would know that it would inevitably involve my wife again, and now that I have moved out, I have counted all the things that my wife has rewarded me, and it will not be like before. I thought that it would be okay to be clean in the future, but I didn't expect that I would be so restless over there, and I thought it would be better to tell my wife. ”
Zhilan truthfully reported Jiaxuan's previous embarrassing situation, and sighed in the end.
"The second lady is really sensible, and she privately listened to the words of Mama and Mrs. as a holy decree, and Mama said to let me practice the rules, so she practiced to death, 'I always say that I can't embarrass my father and mother when I go out, and I can't let my sister who takes care of me chill.'" If you listen to this sentence, it will not be in vain for your wife to carry her like this. "Zhilan sees Jiaxuan's respect and respect for her, so she can't help say a few good words.
