Chapter 123: Raising Money
Seeing Nian'er running out with her cloak in her arms, followed by Autumn Leaves, Yun Xiangrong hurriedly smiled and shouted, "Slow down, be careful of falling!" ”
Yinggu helped Yun Xiangrong put on a cloak, Nian'er happily led Yun Xiangrong all the way, chirping about the grass and trees in Zheng Guogong's mansion, Yun Xiangrong suddenly found that Nian'er was very familiar with all kinds of flowers and plants, and was busy going to see Yinggu, the corners of Yinggu's mouth were upturned, and she said inadvertently: "The prince and the eldest princess have learned a lot of skills!" ”
Nian'er heard that Yinggu meant something, she didn't say a word, her face was red, Yun Xiangrong looked at it, and hurriedly said: "Skills are not pressing, Nian'er can learn more skills, it's not a bad thing!" After saying that, she smiled encouragingly at Nian'er, Nian'er pulled Yun Xiangrong's hand and said in a low voice: "Wait until I go back to the room next time, I have something to say to the third sister!" Yun Xiangrong smiled slightly, and didn't take Nian'er's words to heart!
The three of them entered the old lady's yard, the yard was very quiet, the little maid who would dance in the yard on weekdays was gone, Yun Xiangrong was wondering, a maid with a little face came over, and said with a smile: "Madame is back, the old lady said that you have worked hard all the way, go back and rest, it just so happens that there is a guest here, so I won't greet you!" After speaking, he stood in front of Yun Xiangrong, looking like a send-off, Yun Xiangrong was full of suspicion, looked at the shadowy shadow by the window, and asked in a low voice, "But what's the matter at home?" ”
The little maid glanced back and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just an old acquaintance!" ”
The corners of Yun Xiangrong's mouth curled, and he guessed that this was probably the old lady avoiding him, so he didn't step forward, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll come over to say hello to my mother later!" After speaking, he turned around in a chic manner and walked back with Nian'er and Yinggu!
The little maid hurriedly walked in, the old lady was talking to a decent old man with a decent grandmother on the kang couch, the little maid did not dare to disturb, and was busy standing aside, the old lady swept over with a smile, and asked in a deep voice: "How!" What do you have to inquire about? ”
The little maid hurriedly replied: "Madame just asked what was going on at home, and the slave maid said that the old lady was seeing a friend, so Madame went back with a smile, and said that she would come back later to say goodbye, and the slave maid smelled like she had brought Cai Ji's soup dumplings!" ”
The old lady nodded with a smile, looked at the old lady next to her and said with a smile: "The boss, this daughter-in-law is a good choice, she is clever and doesn't like to be lively, she is very well-behaved, I remember that Mama Li likes this Cai Ji's soup dumplings the most, and I knew that it would be good to let her in!" ”
The old man, who was called Mama Li, said with a smile: "Where is this old lady, I have followed the nobles in the palace all these years, and I don't remember the taste for a long time!" ”
The old lady changed her words, looked at the little maid, and said softly: "Cuiliu, you go to the outer study, since the lady is back, the grandfather of the country should already be in the outer study, so I said that Mama Li next to the noble man is here, let him come to my yard!" ”
The little maid called Cuiliu was busy and walked out quickly! Along the way, I thought about the new lady I just saw, but I was a little surprised, I had a bad stomach a few days ago, and I don't know how it was so serious, I rested for seven days in a row, missed Zheng Guogong's wedding, and I didn't see Mrs. Shang when I recognized my relatives, and I thought at this time, I just did it, I shouldn't have offended this new lady, although the old lady said to let the new lady take care of the house, but Cuiliu, who has been on an errand in the old lady's yard since she was seven years old, doesn't think so, these years, with her understanding of the old lady, I'm afraid that the old lady will always hold the feed in the house in her hand! Just thinking about it, he had already come to the outer study, and saw Hua Wu standing at the door, with a cold face, Cuiliu hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a smile: "The master is back, the old lady is looking for the master!" ”
Hua Wu's face softened, and he said softly: "Ye is not here, your illness is cured, I haven't seen you for a few days, if the old lady is in a hurry, you will leave a message, and when the master comes back, he will deal with it!" ”
Cuiliu sighed, knowing that Gong Zheng Guo must not be there, and said with a smile: "I just came back from an errand today, Mama Li from the palace came, and the old lady asked Grandpa Guo to go over and talk!" Hua Wu frowned and said in a deep voice: "Got it!" ”
Cuiliu had to go back to her life, and she didn't stay long, she said goodbye with a smile, and walked back to the old lady's yard quickly!
At this time, Yun Xiangrong just took a comfortable hot bath, changed into clean home clothes, and accompanied Nian'er to eat steamed buns, seeing that Nian'er had eaten two in a row, he hurriedly asked: "What did you use in the morning, eat less, be careful of accumulating food!" ”
Nian'er shook her head indiscriminately, grabbed two more buns, and ate them in three or two bites, Yun Xiangrong looked stupid, in minutes, the two drawers of buns were at the bottom, Yun Xiangrong hurriedly asked Qiuye to serve hawthorn water, and gave Nian'er to eat, Nian'er drank the hawthorn water in a few sips, looking at Yun Xiangrong, but he looked satisfied, burped, and said with a smile: "Finally full!" ”
Yun Xiangrong looked at Nian'er in shock, but in his heart, he remembered the eating appearance of the Nine Emperor Princes just now, and looked at Nian'er whose eyebrows and eyes were a little similar to the Nine Emperor Princes, and couldn't help but smile and said, "You kid, you haven't eaten enough recently?" ”
Nian'er nodded a little embarrassedly, grabbed the back of her head, and said with a smile: "I eat more, I heard my mother say, His Royal Highness Nine is also like me, but when I was a child, I didn't eat as much as I am, and my mother was afraid that I would eat too much, don't exercise, and gain weight again, so I asked the master to teach me martial arts, and I also recognized some herbs!" After Nian'er finished speaking, she looked at Yun Xiangrong embarrassedly, Yun Xiangrong bowed her head, knowing that Nian'er was explaining to herself about knowing medicinal herbs, and said with a smile: "Learn more and learn skills, there's nothing wrong with it!" ”
As soon as the words fell, with an excited face, he shouted into the air: "Master, come out to meet the third sister, you don't have to hide like this in the future!" ”
Yun Xiangrong looked at the man in white who suddenly appeared, and looked at Nian'er with a stunned expression, Nian'er nodded violently, and said happily: "The master follows me every day!" ”
Yun Xiangrong smiled bitterly, and said secretly: Okay, it seems that there should be some rules in this upper room, and said to Nian'er's master with a smile: "On weekdays, Nian'er enters the upper room, you don't have to follow, but when you go out of the upper room, you have to stay inch, just right, I originally had to ask someone to keep an eye on Nian'er's food, since you understand pharmacology and know so many herbs, then you are responsible for checking Nian'er's diet every day, remember: there can be no mistakes!" ”
The man in white nodded cautiously, not understanding why this petite-looking lady was so serious, but he was entrusted by the eldest princess, and he had the responsibility and obligation to ensure Nian'er's safety!
Yun Xiangrong was very satisfied with the attitude of the man in white, and asked with a smile, "I don't know what to call it yet?" ”
The man smiled, two pear vortices instantly appeared on his face, looking like a big boy, very clean and simple, and said softly: "Little Nanwu!" ”
Nian'er said with a look of admiration: "Nan Wu is his mother's adopted son, he has followed his mother since he was five years old, he is very capable, he will not be able to do it, his mother used to say that if it wasn't for his inappropriate background, Nan Wu would be a martial champion, it would be a treasure trove!" ”
Yun Xiang Rong bowed his head, and didn't feel that Nian'er's words were exaggerated, just when Nian'er was chattering and praising Nan Wu, Nan Wu had been cautiously observing the surroundings!
Yun Xiangrong looked at Nan Wu and nodded secretly, knowing what he was going to do, and knowing that he had a heavy responsibility, at any time, he would not relax at all, Yun Xiangrong admired Nan Wu very much, and knew that Nan Wu would set the climate one day!
Different from the warmth of Yun Xiangrong's side, the Yun family at this time can be described as two heavens of ice and fire, Yinggu took the silver and directly met the second lady who was sick, as soon as the second lady saw the silver, she listened to Yinggu's intention, and cried with a wow, making Yinggu very embarrassed, not leaving, not staying, fortunately, the grandmother beside the second lady was still clever, and she was busy driving the little maids in the house out, and persuaded in a low voice: "Madame, what's the matter, I was still worried about the silver last night, these three young ladies sent you silver, why are you still crying, This embarrassed Mama Ying, I don't know, I thought you were not happy that the third lady sent the silver! ”
The second lady hurriedly wiped her tears, choked up and said, "Where did I mean that, I didn't expect it!" ”
Saying that she was going to cry again, Aunt Ying hurriedly persuaded: "Second lady, don't cry, be careful with your eyes!" I don't know what difficulties I encountered at home, Mrs. asked me to ask, I can help, my niece, I won't look at it, if I really can't help, one more person, I can help come up with ideas! Aunt Ying said it very beautifully, and the second lady also understood that Yun Xiangrong could do this, and it was already the end of the people's will, so she hurriedly motioned for her grandmother to go to the door to guard, took Aunt Ying's hand, and whispered: "I know the mind of the third girl, you go back and tell her that there is nothing to do at home, right...... It's the Jade Prince, the lord is not optimistic about the Jade Prince, and he supports other princes in his heart, because of the relationship between the four girls, the lord doesn't know what to think, and suddenly he starts to support the Jade Prince, saying that the Jade Prince's big thing is going to do something big, and he needs 100,000 taels of silver, 100,000 taels, even if he sells the entire Yun family, he can't raise so much silver! ”
Yinggu gasped, looked at the second lady with a cautious face, and gently pulled her hand out, but the second lady didn't notice Yinggu's estrangement, and complained there: "I really can't do it, just thinking that the eldest princess is rich and rich, and there are such rumors with her father-in-law, that Nian'er has to follow the third girl, and I don't know when it will be, so I asked him, to see if the eldest princess left any valuable objects, I was also forced by the lord to have no way, but now the house is empty, and my dowry is pawned, Now all the things in this house are fakes bought at Ciqikou! ”
Ying Gu glanced around, but she couldn't see that the vases and other antiquities were fake, she had something in her heart, thinking that she was really not good at saying anything, so she said with a smile: "This matter is very important, even if it is a lady, I am afraid that she will not be able to be the master, the second lady looks at it or discusses it with Rong Guogong, since there is nothing to do at home, the slave and maid will go back first, and there is a shortage of people to wait on the lady's side!" ”
The second lady got up and personally sent Aunt Ying out!
Where can Ying Gu take the carriage back slowly, explain to the coachman, lift her breath and fly onto the eaves, all the way back to the Zheng Guogong Mansion along the remote path!
Yun Xiangrong was accompanying Nian'er to practice calligraphy, and when she saw Yinggu walking in with a dark face, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Nian'er, you write two more!" After speaking, he walked out of the small study and entered the inner room with Aunt Ying one after the other!
Ying Gu thought all the way, and saw that only she and Yun Xiangrong were in the house, and said tentatively: "There is nothing to do at home, the second lady is a little short of silver, saying that the Jade Lord needs 100,000 taels for something, and now he is raising money, so he has the idea of Nian'er!" ”
Yun Xiangrong looked at Aunt Ying's face pale, sighed in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Don't tell Ye about this matter, we just don't know anything!" Ying Gu bowed her head, thought for a while and then suddenly asked, "Madame, do you think that people will have a past life and this life?" ”
Yun Xiangrong raised his head fiercely, looked at Yinggu, nodded slightly, Yinggu's throat was dry, and she whispered: "The next words of the slave and maid may be a little scary, but they are not lies!" Looking around, Ying Gu said softly: "The slave remembers the events of the previous life, and it is extremely clear, three years later, the Jade Prince's Mansion will be beheaded by the whole family, just because of the rebellion!" After speaking, seeing that Yun Xiangrong's face was not different, he put his mind at ease and said softly: "Fourth Miss's marriage, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" ”
Yun Xiangrong shook his head and said softly: "Everyone has their own life, we can't go and tell the second lady, if the fourth lady marries, she will die in three years, I'm afraid that the second lady will treat us as crazy, I know about it, don't talk to the third person!" There is a mysterious guest in the courtyard of the old lady, you have found a chance to see, who is it, I always feel that there are really many secrets of this Zheng Guogong Mansion! ”
Ying Gu gathered her mind and hurriedly walked out quietly!
A quarter of an hour later, Ying Gu quietly entered the upper room, saw Yun Xiangrong was accompanying Nian'er to eat snacks, did not disturb, stood quietly aside, Yun Xiangrong found an opportunity, let Ying Gu accompany to the clean room, the two of them had a chance to talk, Ying Gu hurriedly said: "It's a grandmother in the palace, but the master should not be very favored, although the slave has some impressions, but I don't remember which nobleman's side of the grandmother!" Yun Xiang bowed his head and said softly: "Let's take a look, maybe the master will talk to me, by the way, did the old lady often walk around the palace before, saying that the grandmother is an old acquaintance!" ”
Yinggu shook her head and said softly: "That's not it, even the annual pilgrimage, the slave maid remembers that the old lady often complains of illness, and she invited Yizhi not to attend!" ”
Yun Xiangrong drew a big question mark in his heart, feeling that this old lady of Zheng Guogong's Mansion was not as harmless as she looked on the surface, and she was easy to get along with!
In the southwest corner of the capital, in an abandoned mansion, Nanping drank the best red robe, looked at the man with a calm face in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't you want to be so troublesome, it's not easy for me to go out of the palace, just for this little thing, do you want to be like this, by the way, this is for you, it's my wedding gift to you!" After speaking, he pushed a box in front of Zheng Guogong! (To be continued.) )
