Chapter 405: Misunderstanding (Yesterday's Update)
Gui Bo handed a thick envelope to Shu Yao with both hands, with a smile of relief and kindness in his eyes, and said secretly in his heart: People don't know what to do, and they still think that the prince sends a book to the princess every time.
Shu Yao took it with a blushing face, I don't know if it was because he was used to it, or because Gui Bo was "his own person", although he was still shy, he was not as embarrassed as he was at the beginning.
Gui Bo said: "The gift from the prince to you and the county lord has also arrived, one box per person, and it will arrive one day earlier than the gift of the prince." ”
Shu Yao nodded and smiled: "Xie Lu Xie Guibo." ”
The big wooden box sent by Prince Yong, the box is made of high-quality mahogany, and the carving is meticulous, so it can be said that the box itself is a gift boutique.
Shu Yao couldn't help but smile, she remembered the allusion that Qi Yueling said, in the past, Prince Yong sent things back, they were all simple wooden boxes, or rattan baskets, but the young Qi Yueling was unhappy because her father was not around, and she was hypocritical, insisting that her father's gift box was very ugly, not like a gift at all.
Since then, every time Prince Yong sends something back, Qi Yueling's gift is packed in a specially customized box. The boxes are not only brightly colored, but also beautifully carved and delicately carved.
Of course, that is, Qi Yueling, the baby concubine, has this treatment, Qi Haoning is a man, if he also makes a similar request, he will definitely be reprimanded by Prince Yong, and the other side room aunts and concubines in the palace have no separate gifts, so they will find it by themselves in the New Year's gift sent back to the entire palace (sent to the inner courtyard will be controlled by Concubine Zhao, and others will not be able to surpass Qi Yuexin and Qi Haoxiang).
Maybe he learned a lesson from Qi Yueling, Prince Yong is very attentive to his daughter-in-law. From the first time I started to send gifts to Shu Yao, they were all packaged in beautiful boxes. Afterward. Not only is the gift the same as Qi Yueling. Even the boxes and boxes were the same, which made Qi Yueling shout that her father was lazy, and she couldn't exchange gifts with Sister Yao'er, everything was the same.
The Queen Mother pointed at Qi Yueling and scolded with a smile: "It's just that you, a heartless little girl, can bully your father, your father is a big man, and he has to lead troops to fight and deal with foreign enemies, so it's already very heartfelt to remember to prepare gifts for you." "Generally, mothers will bother their daughters and prospective daughters-in-law. Prince Yong also cherished that his children did not have mother's pain, so he took on the heart of a "loving mother".
Shu Yao is very grateful to Prince Yong, the father-in-law-to-be, who is also a good man who values love and loves his children, and Shu Yao can see his intentions from the gifts he chooses. and the letters he wrote to Qi Yueling, the tone was kind and humorous, and his pampering heart jumped on the paper, completely subverting the cold image of Prince Yong that Shu Yao had heard in his previous life.
Next to Prince Yong's gift box are two large baskets, which were sent by Qi Haoning from Yuecheng, and dried seafood accounts for most of them, as well as some other specialties in the south. On the far side of the basket is a brocade box. One red, one green.
Gui Bo smiled: "The prince said it. The contents of these two brocade boxes are for the Lord of Fuxing, so let you put it away yourself. ”
As soon as these words came out, the old lady and Nangong Miao all laughed softly, and even Mother Liu couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker.
Does such an obvious hint mean "intimate gifts, don't look at indecent gifts"?
Nangong Miao pointed to the purple brocade behind Shu Yao and quipped: "Don't take these two boxes of things to Mingyue Garden, be careful not to touch them, otherwise Ning Shizi will come back and pull out your skin." ”
Shu Yao's little face was flushed, and she secretly complained, this Ning Shizi, as if he was afraid that people would not know the way, and he had to deliberately ask Gui Bo to emphasize what to do? I don't know what is so mysterious in the brocade box?
Uncle Gui also laughed, this is what the prince explained in his letter, he naturally wanted to say, in case the gift of the prince is really too private and let others see it, isn't the lord of Fuxing even more embarrassed?
Thinking that these two "private" brocade boxes were almost stolen away by Concubine Zhao and Qi Yuexin, Gui Bo was so angry that his chest was stuffy. really let them succeed, how can he explain to the prince? What's even more ridiculous is that if he arrives one step later, all these things sent by the prince and the prince will be carried away by Concubine Zhao's people.
Concubine Zhao didn't know where she found an old woman surnamed Wu a while ago, and she looked like she was unpredictable, and Uncle Gui intuitively didn't feel good when she saw it for the first time. But Concubine Zhao is the master, and she is in charge of the middle feed, and it is normal to add a few slaves in the inner courtyard, and he really has no position and qualifications to say anything.
But yesterday, while Gui Bo went to the palace to deliver something to the lord of Yuegui, Concubine Zhao actually took people to the small treasury in the front yard, forced the guards to open the door, and wanted to move away the gift prepared by the prince to the lord of Fuxing County, as well as the New Year's gift to the two marquis mansions just received from the prince.
The people in the treasury did not let them move, and made it clear that those things were given to the lord of Fuxing by the prince and the prince, and even more made the "faceless" Concubine Zhao angry, and angrily scolded the big housekeeper Gui Bo for embezzling the property of the palace, and said that if it was really for the lord of Fuxing, let Gui Bo bring the letter of the prince and the prince to find her after he came back.
Fortunately, not long after Gui Bo left the mansion, he found that he only cared about the gifts given by the prince and the prince to the lord of Yuegui, but he forgot the small things that the lord of Yuegui told him to buy when he entered the palace the last time, so he hurriedly turned around to get it, and happened to bump into this scene.
Concubine Zhao and that Wu Pozi were startled when they saw Gui Bo suddenly appear, they just rushed over when they saw Gui Bo leaving the house, didn't Gui Bo want to enter the palace? Why did you come back so soon?
Gui Bo took out the gift list of the prince and the prince, and said coldly: "Concubine Zhao, do you see it clearly?" If you have any questions, you can write a letter to the prince in person, or you can report it to the royal patriarch. Before the prince went to the southwest, he asked the royal patriarch to take care of the palace, so that no one would harm the palace or evil slaves and bully the master, and the royal patriarch would definitely administer justice for you. ”
Concubine Zhao's face turned pale in an instant, this matter was caused to the imperial patriarch, but she didn't benefit at all, she would only be extremely embarrassed, lose face and lose face all over the capital, and it was even possible to be directly deprived of the right to be a housekeeper by the queen mother.
Mrs. Wu tried to round the field: "The big housekeeper laughed, where does the side concubine not believe in the big housekeeper?" It's just that someone just heard that the prince came back with New Year's goods, and the side concubine rushed over as soon as she was happy, didn't she? Along the way, I also praised the filial piety of the prince. ”
Is this an accusation of unfilial piety? Gui Bo's tone was naturally not good: "The side concubine forgot? The prince is not in the house, and the New Year's goods of the prince are naturally sent to Kacheng, and I am about to send them to the palace to honor the New Year's gifts of the emperor and the queen mother. "There is no rule to "honor" the mother-in-law, right?
Concubine Zhao's face was even more exciting, and Mrs. Wu didn't seem to expect Uncle Gui to be so faceless, and sneered: "This ...... This...... Isn't the prince always close to Concubine Zhao like mother and son? Okay, okay, there's a misunderstanding, the big housekeeper, you're busy, and the slaves and maids are also waiting for Concubine Zhao to go back to the courtyard to rest, and Concubine Zhao is not feeling well today. ”
Gui Bo snorted coldly, like a mother and son? Talk to yourself.
Qi Yuexin, who had been hiding silently behind, was just about to turn around, Gui Bo pointed to the red brocade box in her arms and the green brocade box in the arms of the maid behind her and said: "Auntie, you forgot to put things down, those two brocade boxes were specially sent to the county lord of Fuxing by the prince of the world, and the keys are all in the letter from the prince to the county lord, have you taken them?" ”
Qi Yuexin was angry, she saw that these two brocade boxes were delicate and not big, so she wanted to go with her hands, she intuitively felt that the things inside must be worth a lot, but she didn't expect Gui Bo, a dead minion, to be so sharp-eyed.
Qi Yuexin was about to throw the brocade box over, and Gui Bo exclaimed as if she knew what she was thinking: "Auntie and grandmother be careful, if you accidentally break the things inside, you can't explain it to the prince." ”
Concubine Zhao knew Qi Yuexin best, and when she saw her demeanor, she knew that she was going to drop something again, but she couldn't fall in this situation! Just as he was about to reach out and "snatch" the brocade box, Gui Bo moved faster than her.
Qi Yuexin was stunned, the brocade box had already arrived in the hands of Concubine Zhao. Concubine Zhao handed the brocade box to Gui Bo: "Xin'er is not cautious enough when she is young, thank you for the reminder." ”
Gui Bo took the brocade box, and handed it to the little maid next to him together with the one in the maid's hand for him to put it away, and unceremoniously said in front of the treasury person to Concubine Zhao: "The things that the prince sent back to the house, the small ones are always handed over to you as soon as possible." Will be placed in this small warehouse, are the prince or the prince of the prince to hand over the small to others, often there are some items to be sent into the palace or into the military department, if there is a shortage or damage, the responsibility can be small or big, in the future, please Zhao Fang Concubine do not let people open the treasury without authorization. If Concubine Zhao has any doubts, the little one can write a letter to ask the prince to repair a book, and explain it to you in person. ”
Concubine Zhao's face had already turned into a pig's liver: "No need, this time it's just a misunderstanding, Concubine Ben has no interest in these things, just don't come in the future." ”
Uncle Gui is as kind as flowing: "Xie Lu Xie Zhao side concubine understands," turned to the two people guarding the treasury: "Did you hear that?" In the future, no one is allowed to enter this treasury without permission except me, except, of course, that the prince and the prince have returned. ”
The two of them hurriedly replied: "Yes"
Concubine Zhao is the master in charge of the feed no matter what, they are not the big housekeepers, how dare they directly confront her? This has not happened before, and there is no rule in the house that this treasury Concubine Zhao can't take care of it.
However, with this face-to-face negotiation, they don't have to be afraid in the future, and they resolutely don't let them in, anyway, the deeds of these people in the outer courtyard are all in the hands of the prince, not in the hands of Concubine Zhao.
Qi Yuexin couldn't hold her breath at first, snorted, and stomped away.
Concubine Zhao's palm has been poked by her own nails, and the back tooth socket is painful, but there is no way at all, Gui Bo still wants to enter the palace today.
Mrs. Wu's eyes, which were more white than black, turned a few times, and she was a little depressed, it seemed that Concubine Zhao's status in Prince Yong's Mansion was much worse than it seemed on the surface. (To be continued......)
