Chapter 643: Covering the Sideburns (The First Month Pass)

"That's good." Ying sleeves smiled and ordered someone to serve tea to Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei said with emotion: "It is certain that the imperial grandfather is unhappy, Vice Prime Minister Cao is the person who was specially picked out by the imperial grandfather to break the control of the five-phase family, and as a result, he was taken out of prison by his brother-in-law in less than a round, how can the imperial grandfather be happy in his heart?" Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, and besides, most people know that Vice Prime Minister Cao has the support of the emperor's grandfather behind him, who will not get along with him? ”

It was in this way that he developed the arrogant temperament of Vice Prime Minister Cao, and even Xie Dongli dared not to take it seriously.

Ying Sleeve frowned and said, "How can this be? Not to mention that Vice Prime Minister Cao himself violated the law of the country, how can you blame your brother-in-law? No, I want to enter the palace and talk to the emperor's grandfather. ”

She couldn't see others embarrassed Xie Dongli.

Although Xie Dongli is capable enough and doesn't need others to stand up for him at all, but in Yingsleeve's heart, if his man doesn't defend himself, do you want to watch him being attacked by everyone?

"Sister, don't go. If you don't go, only the two of us know that the imperial grandfather is unhappy. If you go, everyone will know that the imperial grandfather is not happy. When the time comes, how do you let the imperial grandfather behave? How does the brother-in-law deal with himself? Xiao Lei shook his head disapprehantly, and he actually said the truth, and he didn't completely understand the sophistication of human feelings.

Yingsleeve said happily: "Huh? Our Xiao Lei can actually see the twists and turns? It's not easy, it's not easy, should I be happy, or should I be sad? ”

"It's not good to understand people's feelings? What are you upset about? Sheng Qingdai listened with a smile next to her, and suddenly interjected. looked at Ying Sleeve, in fact, the meaning of the words refers to Xiao Lei.

Yingsleeve stood up and walked slowly around the room. shook his head, nodded again, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, quite a bit of pride and pride that "my family has a girl who has just grown up".

Xiao Lei, who would only hide in the house when he was a child and couldn't even speak, finally grew up.

"Okay, I don't care about that. But when necessary, you have to speak for your brother-in-law. Ying Sleeve stopped in front of Xiao Lei, "Grandfather Huang is old. Sometimes what you think in your heart may not be the same as ours, you have to know the trade-offs. ”

Xiao Lei nodded, seeing Sheng Qingdai packing up the medicine box. It looks like it's leaving. couldn't help but stand up, "Sister, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

Yingsleeve originally wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, this matter was between Xiao Lei and Sheng Qingdai, if she ignored the wishes of Xiao Lei and Sheng Qingdai, she interfered indiscriminately. Isn't it the same as what Lu Ruilan did to her?

Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

Therefore, the words that came to his mouth were swallowed again. Another way of saying it: "I'm going out for a walk today, Dai Dai, is your Sheng family pharmacy in the West Market or the East Market?" ”

"In South City." Sheng Qingdai turned around and winked at Ying Sleeve, "There are the most people there, and the most miscellaneous ......"

This is Xie Dongli's request, if the Sheng family pharmacy wants to open all over the Zhongzhou mainland, it is necessary to choose the place with the largest customer flow, so as to help him collect news as much as possible.

"Oh. I'm going to go out for a walk after lunch, I haven't been to your pharmacy yet, it's better to pick up the day than to hit the sun, I'll go and see it today, okay? ”

"Absolutely. Qingdai will be swept and waiting, waiting for you to step on the flowers. Sheng Qingdai winked at Yingsleeve, and walked away with the medicine box on her back with a smile.

Xiao Lei's gaze never left Sheng Qingdai's face.

As soon as Sheng Qingdai left, Xiao Lei hurriedly roared: "Sister, then I'll leave too!" ”

Yingsleeve glanced at Xiao Lei, smiled and nodded, "Go ahead." Your two side concubines have been married for so long, so it's time to marry in, right? ”

One sentence poked a hole in Xiao Lei's enthusiasm, and the heat was all dispersed.

His whole person suddenly became decadent, and he said listlessly: "Sister, you really can't open a pot." ”

"I'm just reminding you, how can I say anything else?" Ying Sleeve raised his eyebrows, sat down, already had a needle and thread in his hand, and wanted to make some belly pockets for the child in his belly, "How long have you been married, can you still drag it out?" ”

Xiao Lei was supposed to marry two side concubines last year, but because of the incident of the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi and Ying Sleeve, Ying Sleeve was unconscious, Xiao Lei, as her own younger brother, of course, could not do a happy event by herself when the eldest sister was seriously injured and fainted, so it was delayed.

And Yingsleeve is now not only recovering from illness, but even the child has been pregnant for three months, no matter from what point of view, Xiao Lei's marriage to the side concubine is imperative.

If it weren't for Sheng Qingdai coming to Dongyuan to open a pharmacy, Xiao Lei would have been preparing to be a groom official recently.

It's just that as soon as Sheng Qingdai came, Xiao Lei couldn't marry the side concubine as before.

But the Changxing Marquis Mansion and the Wanning Marquis Mansion will not let Xiao Lei go easily.

"Forget it, I'll go back." Xiao Lei sighed, arched his hand, and left.

Ying Sleeve looked at Xiao Lei's back, smiled, lowered his head and continued to do needlework.

She didn't do a few stitches before she heard Cai Yun report at the door: "Madam, Murong Shizi and Madame Shizi are here, saying that they want to see Madame and His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun." ”

Ying sleeves didn't raise his head: "Isn't Xiao Lei gone?" Let him go to the Prince's Mansion to find Xiao Lei. ”

"Madam, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun came in with you." Cai Yun said helplessly, pointing towards the courtyard.

Ying Sleeves looked up and saw Murong Changqing walking in with his head held high, followed by a woman in a light green dress, who was his newlywed wife Lu Qingfen.

Xiao Lei hung his head and followed behind the two of them.

"Hey, what kind of wind is it today, which blew Murong Shizi and Mrs. Shizi in." Yingsleeve put down the needle and thread in his hand and glanced at Xiao Lei.

Several people sat down and exchanged a few pleasantries.

Lu Qingfen had just married Murong Changqing not long ago, and she was still a little shy to travel with him, but she looked at Murong Changqing with affection in her eyes, and the two should have a good life after marriage.

Ying Sleeve was also happy to see it, and hurriedly said: "The jasper butterfly sideburns in Mrs. Shizi's hair are really good-looking, and the color and water head are all excellent." ”

Lu Qingfen stretched out her hand and pressed her sideburns, pursed her lips and smiled: "This is given to me by my eldest aunt, and Mrs. Xie also thinks it looks good?" ”

Lu Qingfen's eldest aunt is Lu Ruilan, the eldest cousin of Yingsleeve.

Yingsleeve's heart moved. If you look closely, this mask is ...... It seems to be something from the Xie family.

When they handed over the account books and treasury lists of their homes, Ying Sleeve saw the list of gifts.

Knowing that the Xie family has a jasper butterfly to cover his sideburns, he is Xie Fu's father. That is, it was passed down by Xie Donglian's grandfather, and later Lu Ruilan married and took charge of the Xie family's family affairs, and these things were handed over to her.

Other belongings are just that, Ying Sleeve checked the accounts at that time, and only checked the Xie family's property.

Xie Donglian's mother kissed the things brought by the Liu family, and Ying Sleeve felt that the two eldest brothers of the Liu family also had a share. Therefore, there is no question at all.

Only those belongings of the Xie family's ancestors, Ying Sleeve looked at them very carefully.

Lu Ruilan did not hide her secrets, let alone take the ancestral things of the Xie family as her own. However, she put many ancestral jewelry of the Xie family, especially those that are ingenious and have nowhere to buy them on the market. It's all taken as gifts.

The gift slip is clearly written. And it was a gift from the Xie family, not by herself, so Ying Sleeve remembered it when she saw it.

Her mind in this regard is still very meticulous, although those gift lists are densely written, but with a sweep of her sleeves, she can see that all the valuable ornaments of the Xie family's ancestors were sent to the Lu family by Lu Ruilan, and some were sent to the in-laws of Lu Ruilan's married daughter-in-law. Another part was rewarded by Lu Ruilan to his daughter-in-law, of course. and Ning Shumei, the Wanning Marquis Mansion, is also concocted in the same way......

It's all sent over the bright road, and no one can find fault with it.

For example, the Lu family's girls and Lu family's daughters-in-law gave birth to children, and added pots and birthday gifts to the newly born girls of the Lu family, just like this, one by one, from the Xie family's treasury to the Lu family's treasury.

Lu Ruilan's own daughter is on her birthday, her granddaughter was born, and the gifts are all ancestral treasures in the Xie family's treasury.

Not much, one or two at a time.

I can't help but have a lot of years, a long time, and a large population, and there are really not many good things left in the Xie family's treasury.

And this time, the congratulatory gift from the Xie family to Lu Qingfen was even more valuable.

There is a lot more to it than this jasper butterfly to cover its sideburns.

Of course, when Lu Ruilan did this, everyone praised the Xie family for his generosity, and the reputation was won by the Xie family.

She estimated that even if the Xie family discovered the mystery, they would not be able to make a noise, so they could only eat coptis dumbly.

However, Yingsleeve happened to not have the same face as Lu Ruilan's calculations.

And she just wanted to come out with some things to block Lu Ruilan, so that Lu Ruilan would not be idle and continue to trouble her.

Xie Dongli told her before that the best defense is to attack, so in order to defend, she also has to take the initiative to attack, by the way, she will eradicate several political enemies in the court for Xie Dongli, and also express her position to Emperor Yuan Hong, lest Emperor Yuan Hong's mind be confused and destroy the Great Wall, which will not be good for Xie Dongli's heart.

Thinking of this, Yingsleeve's eyes kept swirling on the jasper butterfly sideburns in Lu Qingfen's hair.

Murong Changqing took a few sips of tea and said, "Mrs. Xie, we are here today to discuss with Mrs. Xie and His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, whether to pick a good day and take care of the family affairs of His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson and my sister." ”

Murong Zi is Murong Changqing's stepsister, and it makes sense for him, the eldest brother, to come forward to urge marriage.

Yingsleeve glanced at Xiao Lei and made a "Look, I said it" look.

They were still mentioning this matter just now, and sure enough, they rushed to the door.

Xiao Lei was even more listless, moved his seat uneasily, and said, "You can just go to my house and talk about this matter, what are you doing at my sister's house?" ”

"Hehe, who doesn't know, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun and Mrs. Xie have a deep relationship between sisters and brothers, as long as Mrs. Xie speaks in everything, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun will not disagree. Today, I simply begged Mrs. Xie, and I didn't need to look for His Royal Highness. Murong Changqing arched his hand at Ying Sleeve and said to the point.

Ying Sleeve laughed and said, "Murong Shizi's words are really wrong. His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson is no longer small, and only he and the Imperial Grandfather can decide this matter. If you beg me, it won't be useful until next year. ”

"Isn't it?" Lu Qingfen interjected and said, "My eldest aunt said that His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun only listens to Mrs. Xie alone, and even His Majesty's words are not as good as Mrs. Xie." ”

"Shut up!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Murong Changqing and Xiao Lei spoke out at the same time to stop Lu Qingfen.

Lu Qingfen was so frightened by them that she didn't dare to speak, and tears only swirled in her eyes.

Yingsleeve thought that this matter was not something she could interfere in, and the matter of getting married was very important, if Xiao Lei didn't figure it out himself, he was busy marrying the two girls in, it would hurt others.

Even if they can be separated, they are no better than the innocent big girls who were not married before.

Therefore, she rolled her eyes, diverted the topic, and stopped on the jasper butterfly sideburns in Lu Qingfen's hair, and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter." However, I have a request, and I hope that Mrs. Murong Shizi can fulfill it. With that, she stood up and bowed to Lu Qingfen.

Lu Qingfen was even more frightened, she sat stiffly on the chair and didn't dare to move, she looked at Yingsleeve in a daze, tears finally flowed, she choked up and said, "Mrs. Xie, don't kill me......"

Murong Changqing and Xiao Lei hurriedly stood up.

Xiao Lei came over to hold Yingsleeve and complained: "Sister, what's wrong with you?" It's my business, you don't have to do that. ”

Yingsleeve smiled and said, "What I ask for has nothing to do with you, don't interrupt." ”

As soon as he heard that it had nothing to do with his family, Xiao Lei was immediately relieved and hurriedly said, "What's the matter?" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Murong Changqing, "Murong Shizi, my sister has something to ask your wife, can you do me a favor?" ”

Murong Changqing's face was gloomy, and he said, "May I ask Mrs. Xie what she is asking for?" ”

Ying Sleeve pointed to the jasper butterfly in Lu Qingfen's hair to cover her sideburns, and sighed: "That's the case." I recently received the list of account books and warehouses at home, and it turned out that many of the ancestral ornaments of our Xie family were given away by the eldest cousin. You know, how can these things be given away? Since I am the wife of the Xie family, I have to plan for the Xie family, so I am restless day and night, and I want to redeem these ancestral ornaments of the Xie family. I hope you don't laugh at me, I have to get back what I sent, and I'm ashamed, but I won't let Mrs. Shizi suffer, and I will redeem it with the same ornaments, or money. Even if it is bankrupt, it will not hesitate! ”

"Huh? However, this is a big wedding gift from my aunt. Lu Qingfen sobbed and said, "I like it very much...... My favorite piece of jewelry......"

She looked at Murong Changqing beggingly, hoping that he could help her say something.

Yingsleeve also knows that the congratulatory gift sent out has to be taken back, which is really shameless.

But she also has a valid reason.

As soon as this word spread, everyone understood.

The big families of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, the ancestral things are taken out and given as gifts, either they ask for a lot, or they are so poor that they can't open the pot and rely on these things to save their lives.

But as soon as these ancestral things are given away, or sold, the family is almost ruined.

But although the Xie family was not so beautiful before, it was just that no one was the deputy minister in the court, and the family was still a wealthy family, and it definitely did not reach the point of decline.

Then Lu Ruilan's original approach was a little interesting.

Murong Changqing is a man, and he doesn't know anything about women's obsession with jewelry, and when he heard Ying Sleeve say that it was the ancestral jewelry of the Xie family, he immediately said: "Since it is an ancestral heirloom, your eldest aunt may not know, and she is not the Xie family, so there are mistakes in sending it." Since Mrs. Xie said to compensate you with other jewelry, why should you cling to this sideburns? Just give it back to others. ”
