Chapter 220: Rites
Sangluo's time was just right, and after finishing the business, the queen mother also came over with the concubines.
For a while, the garden of Yuxiu Palace fell to its knees.
Sanglu stood at the front, moving the slowest. As soon as he owed, he was held by the queen with his hand, and said repeatedly: "Little aunt doesn't need to be polite!" ”
After Sang Luo straightened up, she took a step back, stood behind the Queen Mother, and said softly: "Today, the Queen Mother set up a banquet for the little Imperial Aunt to practice, and the Queen Mother took pity on the little Imperial Aunt and the little Imperial Uncle to go to the border together, and felt sorry for the little Imperial Aunt who was afraid that she would have to endure hardship." ”
Saying that, she also glanced at the Queen Mother and sighed: "Little Aunt Huang, the Queen Mother also really loves you." I can't sleep for a few days and nights, and I'm worried about it day after day. At the beginning, the little imperial uncle was also raised by the queen mother's side, and the palace entrusted a big sentence that the queen mother cherished the little imperial uncle no less than the emperor. The little imperial uncle and the little imperial aunt are also loved as juniors, and the little imperial aunt should not treat this banquet as a polite scene, this is just a family banquet where the queen mother invited someone to talk to the little imperial aunt. Please don't be polite to the little princess, so that the queen mother is sad. ”
The words are deep and meaningful, and they are tear-jerking. Especially the concubines behind her, they also pressed the corners of their eyes, and they were very cooperative.
The corners of Sang Luo's mouth twitched almost invisibly, she dared to slap Mu Zhanbei on the table as a bargaining chip to gamble, this was definitely Meng Zhiniang's own nonsense! She is not blind, can't she see the Queen Mother sucking the corners of her mouth face to face with her?
It's a pity that no one dares to stand except her, so no one can see it.
Empress Dowager Wu actually didn't plan to let Sang Luo see the ceremony, in fact, Sang Luo married Mu Zhanbei until now, and she really hasn't really seen the ceremony a few times after seeing her. However, the words that the queen said were too exaggerated, which made her feel a little unbearable, and she was a little panicked on her face.
However, she has also experienced ups and downs in the end, and soon stabilized, sighed lightly, and said, "What the queen said is true!" The border is bitter, but you and the prince also have ideas, and the mourning family can't persuade you. It's just that the mourning family's heart is really uncomfortable. You will talk to the mourning family today, and the mourning family can tell you more. ”
"The imperial sister-in-law has a heart!" Sang Luole's cooperation, since it is a family banquet, let's relax.
The Queen Mother waived the courtesy of others, and after saying a few words, she pulled Sang Luo and told her while walking: "This is a long way, the boat and car are tiring, and you must bring all the things." You have been pampered since you were a child, and you have never been far away, if you are not prepared properly, I am afraid that you will suffer a lot. ”
Sang Luo and the queen hugged her alone, and when they heard the words, they responded: "What the imperial sister-in-law mentioned is that my brother-in-law remembers!" ”
"Eat and drink more! Do you have a useful cook? If you don't have one, bring a few from the Imperial Dining Room. The mourning family remembers that there are a few cooks who make dim sum with good skills, if you like it, the mourning family will send it over. ”
Sang Luo smiled: "The imperial sister-in-law is kind, and the brother-in-law understands it." But I am afraid that those who can win the favor of the imperial sister-in-law are old people who have been waiting for a long time. The imperial sister-in-law is used to it, and the brother-in-law will not be loved. Moreover, taking people away, I didn't have to annoy my brother and daughter-in-law. The royal sister-in-law also knows that the prince is the most grateful person, and the royal sister-in-law has loved her all these years, and the prince has remembered it! ”
The Queen Mother's smile froze for a moment, no matter how sincere Sang Luo said, it was unspeakable irony in her ears.
Sang Luo saw the truth in the corner of his eyes, and the smile on his face became sweeter and sweeter.
It's right if you don't feel comfortable in your heart, and whoever has a weak heart is not comfortable! It doesn't make sense that her man has suffered so much before and just passed with the wind, it doesn't matter if he didn't know him before, and now she can get back so much interest for her man, it's always okay.
"Little Aunt Huang, I heard that the wind and sand at the border pass are extremely windy, and it hurts the skin the most. Some time ago, Hongu just got a kind of facial fat, which is the most moisturizing. The palace has been ordered to be prepared, and the little imperial aunt will take it all with her when she leaves the palace in a while. Meng Zhiniang answered.
To say that although the Queen Mother is jealous of Queen Meng Zhiniang, she also looks up to her, and this is the reason. No matter when and where, she can round out the scene when necessary. As long as she comes forward with the queen, the queen mother feels that she will never feel uncomfortable.
"The queen has a heart!" Sang Luo also smiled and thanked him. Anyway, she wrote down this thought.
Concubine De and Concubine Liang naturally gave gifts to each other, and Sang Luo thanked them one by one, and the face work was done.
The Queen Mother said: "Eat more beef and mutton at the border, but there is a shortage of vegetables and fruits." Even if the prince doesn't talk about mourning, he knows that in the past, the prince used to eat a big pot of rice with the soldiers in the barracks, so he didn't care about this. The daughter's family should take more care of themselves, and the mourning family will also tell the prince not to be as negligent as before in the future. Most people in this world can only share happiness, where can we share weal and woe? You can accompany him to endure hardships, and this thought alone is enough to make him care more about you. If you are short of anything at the border gate, you can write a letter to it, and the mourning family will prepare it for you. ”
The queen pondered for a moment and said, "When the queen mother said this, the concubine remembered something. There are distant relatives living in the concubine's mother's house, but not far from the border pass, there is a small village, and some ordinary vegetables and fruits are also grown. Although there are not many types, and they are not of good quality, they are close to the border, and they can be eaten fresh when they are delivered. The queen mother, the concubine will be cheeky to sell a good one to the little aunt in front of you, so let the mother repair a book, and send the vegetables and fruits in season to the little aunt, so that the little aunt can taste it. ”
Empress Dowager Wu laughed: "Your mouth can really sell well!" But it's a good thing, not to mention the good quality, as you said, it's a novelty. That's it, but the mourning family can't let the queen suffer, and the mourning family asks someone to send you a bucket of Dongzhu, which can be regarded as compensation. ”
Meng Zhiniang dared to accept it, and shirked again and again.
Sang Luo naturally responded generously, in fact, Meng Zhiniang had already mentioned this matter to her before, and Sang Luo did not refuse. After all, life at the border is not easy, and she is a person who will not be wronged by herself. If you can make your life better, why not? And it's not a kindness, compared to what she paid, it's just a small return.
Of course, she's not ignorant. Since Meng Zhiniang took out such a thing, of course she would return her a gift of the same value. As for what it is, Meng Zhiniang will know when she receives it.
Subsequently, Empress Dowager Wu pulled Sang Luo and told her in detail, what kind of people should be brought to serve, if there are not enough people, she will allocate them here. The embroidery girl has to take it, the cook can't forget it, and she has to bring a maid who knows some kung fu. He also asked if the silver was enough, and rewarded him with a thousand taels.
The queen mother is bloody, and the queen naturally can't lag behind. Of course, she couldn't go past the Queen Mother, so she only gave eight hundred taels, saying that it was for the little aunt's little heart. Several mothers were not poor, and although they were a little reluctant, they also took out the silver from their purses. Six hundred and five hundred are different, according to rank.
Sang Luo generously accepted it and thanked him. Still shamelessly pondering, I don't know if she postponed the departure date by two days, can she hold another banquet to collect a sum of silver for nothing?
