Chapter 42: Baicaotang
When Feng Yuheng and Yao came out to greet them, An and Feng Xiangrong had already been let into the outer hall of the main house by Grandma Sun.
Speaking of which, the relationship between the Yao family and the An family is considered to be harmonious, and the An family entered the door after the Shen family back then, and was really bullied by the Shen family. But the An family is not a person who likes to fight, and if she can endure it, she will endure it, but fortunately, the Shen family was just a concubine at the beginning, and with the Yao family, the head of the house, pressing on her head, she didn't dare to go too far.
Seeing Feng Yuheng and Yao's entering the house, An's hurriedly got up with Xiangrong, An's bowed to Yao's, called "sister", and when he looked up again, his eyes were red.
Yao Shi also sighed several times, holding An's hand for a long time and couldn't speak.
Feng Yuheng didn't want to see this kind of crying scene, so he persuaded Yao: "Let Aunt An and the third sister sit down, there will be a long time to talk in the future." ”
Only then did An come back to his senses, turned around and bowed to Feng Yuheng, "I've seen Second Miss." ”
She hurriedly held the person up: "Auntie, don't be like this, there are not so many rules here, you are an elder, and you can't bow to the juniors." ”
An smiled bitterly, "I'm a concubine, where can I be worthy of the word elder, the second lady is too exalted to me." It stands to reason that in front of the second lady, I should call myself a slave. ”
"Auntie, don't do this." Feng Yuheng waved his hand to stop and motioned for the two to sit down.
Mama Sun had already made tea and brought it, and the fragrance of tea instantly soaked the entire small hall, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "What kind of tea is this?" It smells so good! ”
An pursed his lips and smiled, "It must be a good thing from His Royal Highness, there is no such good tea in our house." ”
Feng Yuheng shrugged, "Even if there is, it won't be the turn of the people in Liu Yuan to drink." ”
An sighed lightly, "Speaking of which, the Feng family has gone too far. But the second lady has just returned home, so don't make too many enemies, okay? ”
Feng Yuheng knew that the An family was also for her good, nodded and thanked the An family, but shook his head and said: "From the moment we knocked on the door of the Feng family, the enemy came one after another, where to deliberately provoke." ”
An Shi also agreed with this, "You have not been in the mansion all these years, and the Shen family has almost replaced the original old man in the mansion." Even Mama Sun was sent to the outer courtyard to do rough work for more than two years, and it was not until the news that the Nine Emperor Princes were going back to Beijing that they were sent to pick you up. ”
Yao's heart felt sorry for Grandma Sun, and his heart became uncomfortable again.
Feng Yuheng didn't want to say these sentimental things anymore, and got up and went back to the room. She had moved a few jewelry boxes to her boudoir before, she opened one of them, picked a pair of peach blossom earrings and took them in her hand, and when she returned to the outer hall, she stuffed the object to Xiangrong: "The second sister just returned to the house, and there was no good thing on her body, but fortunately, the Royal Mansion sent some over today, and this will be a meeting gift for the third sister!" ”
I wanted to be stunned by the pair of earrings, the pink and tender color, carved out of two delicate peach blossoms. I don't know what the material is, it looks like jade, and it doesn't feel like jade, she can't say it, she just thinks that everything I've seen before isn't so good-looking.
The little girl opened her mouth in a daze, and after a long time exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!" ”
An Shi also came over, and after seeing it, he was shocked, "Silly girl, why are you still stunned, don't thank you second sister!" This is a rare pink crystal in the world! ”
In this era, there was no large amount of crystal mining, but the preciousness of crystal was recognized by the royal family. At present, there are the most common white crystals, followed by citrine, pink quartz and amethyst, but I am afraid that there are not a few pieces in the entire royal family, let alone craftsmen who can use crystal to make carvings, it is really a master-level person who dares to use such materials.
When I heard that it was crystal or pink crystal, I immediately understood the preciousness of this thing, and hurriedly solemnly saluted Feng Yuheng: "I want to thank the second sister." ”
Feng Yuheng helped the girl up with a smile and patted her arm: "Between sisters, there is no need to worship like this. Don't worry, I said before that I would give Fan Dai a handkerchief, and naturally you will not be missing. When I use those fabrics to tailor clothes, I will leave some more, and secretly make a pair of embroidered shoes for Xiangrong, and keep them for you to wear when you get married, okay? ”
Before he could react, An Shi was excited first, "Second Miss! "Even if you are a calm person, you don't know what to say at this moment. Before in the main courtyard, Feng Yuheng said that he set aside a treasure for Xiangrong and Fandai to make a handkerchief, which is already something that everyone in Dashun envies, if you want to wear a pair of embroidered shoes made of five treasures when you get married, then no matter what kind of family you want to marry, you have to let your husband's family take a look.
"Aunt An doesn't have to be like this." Feng Yuheng smiled faintly, "Although Ah Heng has been away from the house for many years, he always remembers some things from his childhood. That year, when the mother was pregnant with Zirui, the Shen family secretly changed the precious medicinal materials in the tonic, and it was Aunt An who saw it and told the old lady to give it, so that the mother could follow the tonic. Ah Heng holds grudges, but he is also ungrateful. ”
An sighed again, he didn't expect that his actions back then would have such a return today. She is a concubine, she doesn't want anything, all her hopes are pinned on this child. But a concubine's daughter either marries a concubine from a large family as a concubine, or marries a concubine as a concubine, and there is no way to compare with a concubine in any case. She thought that her identity was not as good as that of others, so she had a shop for her mother's family to marry, and she would save some more silver taels over the years to add makeup to her face. can have more silver taels, how can it be compared to a pair of embroidered shoes made of five treasures promised by Feng Yuheng!
"Thank you, Second Miss." Ahn is sincerely grateful. Suddenly, he thought of something again, and quickly turned his head and asked Yao: "Has my sister been to Baicaotang since she returned to Beijing?" ”
