Rosewood Temple.

An Rong stepped into the courtyard.

She hadn't come to greet the old lady for more than half a month.

The maid who was cleaning in the yard saw An Rong coming in, and was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she was busy giving An Rong a salute.

The maid outside the house went into the house to tell the old lady.

Inside the house, Mrs. Xiao's second, Xiao's third, and Xiao's fourth wife were all there, and Mrs. Xiao went into the palace.

When An Rong entered, there was laughter in the room.

Mrs. Xiao Si joked to Mrs. Xiao San, "Third sister-in-law, Liuliyan, will you send me a post?" ”

Mrs. Xiao San glared at her and said, "The glazed banquet is held in the Liuxiang Pavilion, and I don't know what the Liuxiang Pavilion is like, the fourth brother and sister in a while, you and I will go and see, how to arrange the tables and chairs appropriately, and how to eat, how to prepare, how much to prepare, but it is not a light job, you don't want to be lazy." ”

Mrs. Xiao Si immediately smiled and said, "With you and sister-in-law, as well as Jin'er and Li'er to help you, do you still need me to be a lazy person?" ”

Mrs. Xiao Si said, and An Rong stepped in.

When Mrs. Xiao San saw An Rong, she smiled and said, "It's not that An Rong is bold, such a big banquet, and she dares to hand it over to Li'er and Jin'er with a heart, and I'm not afraid that the two of them will mess around, she can rest assured, my sister-in-law and I are not at ease." ”

An Rong said with a smile, "The third aunt is humble, Sister Li'er often follows you to learn to manage accounts, and after getting the true inheritance of the third aunt, I handed over the glass banquet to her, I put one hundred and twenty hearts, not to mention, there are also Jin'er and them together, they participate in many more banquets than me, the two sisters have a lot of discussions, but it is better than me racking my brains and thinking hard." ”

An Rong said. Mrs. Xiao San is said to be smooth throughout.

After An Rong returned the Jade Brocade Pavilion to her, Mrs. Xiao San saw that An Rong was pleasing to the eye everywhere.

Just swept his eyes to An Rong's belly. Mrs. Xiaosan's brows furrowed, "It is said." You've been in this body for two and a half months, why are you still flat as if you weren't pregnant? ”

Mrs. Xiao San said, and several ladies and old ladies all looked at An Rong's belly.

An Rong touched it gently, it was indeed very flat, the same as before she entered the wooden bracelet.

More than ten days have passed outside, but there are only a dozen hours in the wooden bracelet.

She didn't know how to count it.

The old lady wrinkled her brows and said, "I heard Lin Moxuan's maid say, you are so tired these days that you are tired from eating and fall asleep in bed?" ”

An Rong said busily. "I'm not very tired, I'm just a little sleepy, and after a good night's sleep, I'm already much better."

Mrs. Xiao San said with concern, "Although Grandpa Guo wants you to help Zhan'er, you also have to take care of your own body, and there are some things that you can let the maid and the secret guard do." Do everything yourself, even ordinary people can't stand it, let alone you are still pregnant. ”

An Rong nodded and wrote it down, smiling and saying. "Thank you for your concern."

As he spoke, An Rong paused, and his eyes swept over the maid in the room.

Mrs. Xiao San knew that An Rong had something to say. Then he waved his hand and said, "Let's all go down." No calling, no entry into the house. ”

Mrs. Xiao San's voice did not fall. Except for Mother Li, who was standing next to the old lady, everyone else retired.

Several ladies and old ladies all looked at An Rong, wanting to hear what she had to say.

An Rong looked at the old lady, raised his wrist lightly, revealed the jade bracelet, and said, "Grandpa Guo asked me to help Xianggong, I thought about it, and decided to open a silk village, and sell some rouge gouache by the way, as long as it is properly managed, it should not be difficult to help Xianggong solve the problem of military salary, if it is well managed, there can be a lot of surplus, before Grandpa Guo goes to the battlefield, how to deal with the excess money?" ”

When Mrs. Xiao San heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Isn't it the same as Yujin Pavilion, how much money is used for military salary, and the rest, you are responsible for the operation, make a profit of 20%, and hand over the rest to the public high school?" ”

On the way here, An Rong was still reflecting, thinking that she was thinking too much, and spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, sure enough, it wasn't that she thought too much.

Mrs. Xiao Si sat there, holding a teacup in her hand and a smile on the corner of her mouth.

The third sister-in-law is really whimsical, can the silk village be compared with the Jade Brocade Pavilion?

Yujin Pavilion was opened by Mrs. Tai, she is the Xiao family, An Rong is not, she is just the granddaughter-in-law of the Xiao family.

Besides, the wooden bracelet can't be used at all without her.

It requires the horses to run fast and have to be fed enough forage.

An Rong didn't speak, just listened quietly.

The old lady glared at Mrs. Xiao San and said, "Before leaving, Grandpa Guo left a brocade box, saying that as long as An Rong didn't mention it, he didn't need to take it out." ”

Now that An Rong mentioned it, the old lady asked Mother Li to get it.

The brocade box is not big, but it is sealed.

Mother Li brought it, and the old lady motioned for her to give it to An Rong.

An Rong took the brocade box, and the old lady smiled, "I don't know what Grandpa Guo said, you can take it apart and take a look." ”

An Rong obediently tore off the seal and opened the brocade box.

What catches the eye is a seal.

It is the private seal of Xiao Laoguogong.

An Rong was a little surprised, don't look at it as just a small private seal, the right is not small, it represents the grandfather of the country.

Several Mrs. Xiao frowned, and they were still a little jealous, "Why did Grandpa Guo leave this private seal to An Rong, what does An Rong want it to do?" ”

An Rong was slightly surprised when he heard this, could it be that there was something unique about this private seal?

Put down the private seal and pick up the letter in the brocade box.

An Rong looked at the old lady, and the old lady smiled, "Grandpa Guo wrote it to you, you don't need to give it to me, you can tear it down." ”

An Rong opened the letter.

After a few glances, An Rong was a little shocked.

It turns out that the origin of this private seal is really not small, it is the private seal of Xiao Lao Guogong, but it was carved by the emperor himself for Xiao Lao Guogong, for this reason, its status is not lower than Xiao Lao Guogong's big seal.

An Rong took a closer look at the private seal, and there was the name of the former emperor on it.

This private seal is seen by the emperor, and it has to be sold for two points of thin noodles, not to mention those ministers.

The right to seal privately is not small, and Xiao Laoguo left it to An Rong, which is prepared.

In addition to the private seal on the letter, there is also the matter of opening a shop.

Grandpa Guo said that An Rong would raise 200,000 taels of silver for Xiao Zhan every month, although he didn't need so much now. However, the demand will increase in the future, so prepare as early as possible.

As long as Xiao Zhan is in charge of military power. Eighty percent of the money earned by this shop was used for the war, and the other two percent. An Rong Yicheng, Xiao Guogong Mansion Yicheng.

In the future, Xiao Zhan will no longer be in charge of military power, and seventy percent of the money earned by the shop will go to Anrong, and thirty percent will go to Xiao Guogong's mansion.

"Sancheng?" After Mrs. Xiao San read the letter, her brows tightened.

Several Mrs. Xiao looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Sancheng was set by the grandfather of the country, and it was useless for them to oppose it.

And the grandfather of the country said in the letter, if there is no peace. Yicheng doesn't, if anyone is against it, okay, if she can wear a wooden bracelet like An Rong, the Xiao family will give her eighty percent!

What else is there to say about the wives?

If you don't have the ability, don't be jealous of others, this is the family rule of the Xiao family, and the family rules are even more clearly written, and you are not allowed to worry about things in the public. You have to think about how to make money.

An Rong's heart was warm, and he said, "It's too much to give me seventy percent, I can't ask for so much." ”

An Rong said. No one answered.

However, the old lady smiled, "It's too early to discuss these things, wait for Grandpa Guo to come back." If you talk about it in person, it means that Zhan'er will not fight in the future, and it will not be too late to say it. ”

Several wives said yes one after another.

in the house. There was a small talk for a while.

An Rong was about to get up and say goodbye to the old lady, outside. The maid came in and said, "Old lady, the Cui family has sent Na Caili here." ”

The gift was sent by a matchmaker.

It's just that Cui Yao and Xiao Jin'er's marriage was facilitated by Xiao Zhan, and he, the matchmaker, went to the border.

This matchmaker is not something that can be changed casually.

There's no way, who in the whole of Kyoto doesn't know that Xiao Jin'er and Cui Yao's matchmaking was made by Xiao Zhan?

The Cui family was afraid of losing etiquette, so they specially mentioned this matter the last time they came to the door.

The Xiao family is not pedantic, Xiao Zhan is not there, this is no way, and Xiao Jiner and Cui Yao are already husband and wife.

I am afraid that An Rong and Xiao Zhan will be pregnant at one time, which will attract gossip.

After Xiao Jin'er returned home, she took the child-avoiding medicine, so she was not worried.

It's just that Mrs. Xiao is uncomfortable, in her heart, Xiao Jin'er is already a member of the Cui family, how can there be any reason to stay by her side, the left and right daughters are going to get married when they are older, and they can't stay for a few days if they are reluctant, and if she marries early, she will feel at ease.

The Nacai gift sent by the Cui family was personally sent by the head of the Cui family.

Led by a pair of live geese, he also brought 36 dowry gifts.

The Cui family is the richest man in the Great Zhou, Cui Yao is the young master of the Cui family, and he is married to the eldest daughter of the Duke of Xiao Guofu, so the dowry cannot be bad.

It's just that the head of the Cui family didn't expect Mrs. Xiao to be in the mansion.

He was a little uncomfortable in his heart, thinking that the Xiao Guogong Mansion was not waiting to see him, and Mrs. Xiao was not there on such an important day as Nacaili.

An Rong saw it and said apologetically, "Master Cui, you personally sent Na Cai Lili, but my eldest aunt was troubled by me and rushed into the palace to see the Queen Mother. ”

The head of the Cui family hurriedly smiled, "How dare you, to marry a girl in the house, it is my Cui family Gaopan." ”

The old lady said with a smile, "What is high or not high, the two children can be happy with each other, and the most important thing is to be in love, my Xiao Guogong Mansion only hopes that the daughter who marries can live happily, and there is nothing else to ask for." ”

The head of the Cui family nodded again and again, "That's what the old lady said." ”

The head of the Cui family stayed in the Guogong Mansion for two quarters of an hour, and Mrs. Xiao did not come back.

The old lady has seen the list, and for those things, she doesn't like it much.

Xiao Guogong's Mansion is not so shallow-eyed, he has never seen a baby, how many things are sent by the Cui family, and only a lot of them are given to Xiao Jin'er as a dowry.

The head of the Cui family couldn't sit still, so he got up and said goodbye.

It was inconvenient for several wives to send the head of the Cui family away, and Xiao Qian sent him out of the house.

When the head of the Cui family left Xiao Guogong's mansion and walked to the busy street, he saw officers and soldiers posting notices.

He went to take a second look, and the notice said that the draft would be moved back three days.

Originally, he didn't pay attention to this.

Gradually, however, the rumors spread.

The draft was rescheduled, and it was Mrs. Xiao who entered the palace to ask for the queen mother, just because Xiao Biao's young grandmother was going to hold a glass banquet and wanted to send out the Hundred Flowers Goddess and the nine-turn glass lantern.

Then, the Queen Mother agreed.

Then, the draft was rescheduled.

The domineering of the Xiao family is well known to everyone in Kyoto, but I didn't expect it to be so domineering, and being a family member with such a person is a little stressful.

Linmoxuan, study.

An Rong sat on the small couch by the window, reading carefully.

Peony pushed the door in and said with a smile, "Young grandmother, the eldest lady has returned home, and the matter is done." ”

An Rong smiled, "This is expected, not surprising. ”

Originally, when the show girl entered the palace, she had to learn the rules in the palace for half a month, and the queen and the emperor would be in a good mood before they were drafted.

Therefore, let the show girls enter the palace a few days late, and there will be no delay at all.

Seeing An Rong say this, Peony smiled and said, "What the slave is going to say next, the young grandmother must not have expected it." ”

An Rong raised his eyebrows lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

Peony chuckled, "The emperor said that whoever wins the Hundred Flowers Goddess will grant her a wish!" ”

An Rong was stunned.

Peony's eyes narrowed into a slit, "With the emperor's words, the glass banquet must be unprecedentedly lively, and the slaves and maids are a little impatient to ......." ”

As she spoke, Peony's voice weakened.

Because An Rong closed his eyes and his hands were still outstretched.

An Rong had instructed that if she closed her eyes and raised her hands, no one was allowed to disturb her.

Peony scratched her forehead.

Halfway through the words, she felt uncomfortable. (To be continued......)
