Chapter 406: Love on the Beach
After Gui Bo finished talking about the New Year's ceremony, he smiled and brought a sentence for Qi Yueling: "The little one entered the palace yesterday, and the county lord Yuegui asked the little one to give the Fuxing county lord a wake-up call for her, saying that you promised to embroider a peony flower scarf for her." β
Shu Yao couldn't care about lowering her head and being shy, and "poofed" and smiled: "Did Yue'er still say that without a peony flower scarf, she would not participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet." β
Qi Yueling likes big and gorgeous flowers, especially peonies, and the peony flowers embroidered by Shu Yao are like the real thing, just this year the needlework room in the palace came to a skillful tailor, according to the instructions of the queen mother, for the four princesses and Qi Yueling respectively designed a dress with the taste of Western clothing, Qi Yueling, the bottom of the skirt is decorated with large peony flowers made of silk, very beautiful.
Shu Yao also praised the semi-finished product when she saw it, and suggested that there should be no embroidery on the dress, but you can add a scarf embroidered with peonies, reflecting the flowers on the skirt, it will look better, the tailor agrees with it, and nods yes.
Qi Yueling imagined it, it was indeed beautiful, and immediately coquettishly told Shu Yao that she gave Shu Yao a peony flower scarf.
"Hehe, yes, yes," Gui Bo was stunned for a moment when he heard Shu Yao's ridicule, and said with a sneer, "Lord Yuegui is still a child, and he is close to you, so ...... Hehe, Lord Fuxing, you don't have to worry about her. β
What is the important event of the Chinese New Year's Eve Palace Banquet, where is it to participate if you want to participate, and you can gamble not to participate for a scarf? Although when Qi Yueling said that, the Queen Mother also looked at her with a smile on the side, and tapped her head with a feigned anger, Gui Bozhi said that Qi Yueling could only mumble. What to do, what to do. But I still think that sentence is too ...... Finish. So I didn't really tell Shu Yao, but I didn't expect Shu Yao to know the truth.
Shu Yao smiled: "Uncle Gui rest assured, Yue'er's words will only be muttered in front of those close to her, and we all know that she has no intentions, and she will forget it all the next day." However, I don't dare to forget what I promised her, otherwise I wouldn't be stunned by her chatter? "Qi Yueling was protected too well by the Queen Mother, although she grew up in a place like the palace. But it's completely naΓ―ve.
What Uncle Gui didn't know was that even if the emperor was sitting there, Qi Yueling would still say that. Of course, she will never fail to participate in the palace banquet, she likes to be lively the most, she will jump up if she is not allowed to participate in the palace banquet, where will she give up?
Gui Bo smiled with satisfaction: "That's, that's, the county lord of Yuegui is a little more unobtrusive about the people close to her, but she is very well-behaved and sensible." "When Qi Yueling was a little younger. The first princess died, and not only the queen mother, the emperor, and Prince Heyong cherished her very much. Even Gui Bo is also very spoiled.
The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, seeing Shu Yao's understanding and love for Qi Yueling, Gui Bo is really happy, he believes that this sister-in-law will be able to get along well in the future. When the Fuxing County Lord enters the door, the Yuegui County Lord should also go back to the palace to live. Gui Bo is looking forward to it, in his eyes, the current palace is occupied by non-people, just waiting for the righteous princess and housewife of Fuxing County to "regain the lost land".
At this time, a little maid came over and said, "The master is back, find Uncle Gui to go to the study to talk." β
Nangong Miao smiled and said, "Uncle Gui, the New Year's gift we prepared for you and your family will be placed on your carriage for a while, and there is a blue bag in it, which is a gift for your little granddaughter." "Uncle Gui's eldest daughter-in-law just gave birth to a little girl, and it was the same day and the same birthday as Uncle Gui, and Uncle Gui was very happy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that love is like a pearl in the palm of your hand.
Uncle Gui was not pretentious, and saluted and said goodbye: "Thank you to the old lady and grandmother, the younger one went to see the in-laws first." β
After Gui Bo left, Nangong Miao also got up and said, "Grandmother, there are two other stewards waiting in front, Miao'er will go first." β
The two stewards were the chief stewards of Mrs. Jin's marriage to Zhuangzi, and the old lady was old, and she just wanted to tease her great-grandson and recite the scriptures, so she handed over her shop and Zhuangzi to Shuwen and Nangong Miao to take care of.
The old lady said distressedly: "Go ahead, grab the backbone of the main heart, and leave the rest to the people around you to do, don't be too tired." β
Gradually spread all over the Great Zhou Dynasty's Mixue Tofu Factory, Qiaoweiju, Nangong Miao's own dowry industry, Jin Xida's industry, and Mrs. Jin's industry...... It became a large-scale industry of the Lianghou Mansion.
Jin Xida and Shujie didn't have the time, energy, or interest to manage these, so naturally they fell on Nangong Miao and Shuwen, but fortunately, there were a large number of big, medium and small stewards headed by the big housekeeper Uncle Kui, who were loyal and capable. Especially Uncle Kui, let the master of Nangong praise and say, "With such a loyal servant, one is a hundred."
Every now and then, Jin Xida and Shujie would say proudly: "Our Yao'er has a discerning eye, and Uncle Kui and Jinniang are Yao'er who takes a fancy to them and insists on staying." "Now this couple is the most important pillar of the Lianghou Mansion, in the future, well, plus their two sons, they are all general-level figures under the command of the Great Emperor Shang Xia Shuwen.
Nangong Miao smiled and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, Miao'er just met those big stewards and listened to their reports and suggestions, she is not tired, Uncle Kui has done all the tiring things." Moreover, Miao'er only saw the stewards of the villages, and Wen'er saw everything in the shop. β
Mrs. Jin nodded, saying so, she knew very well in her heart that at the end of the year, various entertainments, New Year's gifts, and preparations for Jin Xida's family affairs, Nangong Miao was really busy during this time. However, she is old and can't help, so she can only take care of her two baby great-grandchildren, and let Aunt Mei and Nangong Yuzhen help Nangong Miao.
Mrs. Jin said that she and the two little babies were doing well, and if they didn't make any trouble such as getting sick, they would help Nangong Miao. The house of the two little babies is in the Rising Sun Garden, but there is also a big room in the old lady's yard for them to sleep and play, because during the day, they are mostly on the old lady's side.
The two little ones could not stand the chatter, and as soon as the great-grandmother thought of them, they awoke, and the nurse nursed them, hugged them, and babbled and waved their little hands. The old lady's mind was instantly attracted: "Oh, oh, oh, great-grandmother's little baby is awake, have you eaten enough?" Ahhh Is it okay to give a bite to your great-grandmother? β
Shu Yao and Nangong Miao looked at each other and smiled, and retired together, as long as they were rolling and dudu, they couldn't see anyone else in the eyes of the old lady. Moreover, Shu Yao also wanted to go back to Mingyue Yuan to see Qi Haoning's letter, and what was in those two brocade boxes, so that he would specially explain what Gui Bo said.
Nangong Miao kissed the little faces of her two sons respectively, and went out with Shu Yao, and the chief steward was still waiting in front.
Shu Yao returned to Mingyue Garden, except for Zijin who gave a glass of pear juice and immediately withdrew from the house and brought it to the door, Mother Liu and the others consciously went their own way.
After several times, Shu Yao's dough became "thicker", and she drank a sip of Sydney pear juice very calmly, and then cut the envelope first, and sure enough, two small keys were sandwiched between the letterhead.
"Mysterious and secretive", Shu Yao pursed her lips and said angrily, first took a key and tried it on the red brocade box, but it was accurate, and the lock was opened.
In the red brocade box are a pair of cute little porcelain figures, a man and a woman. Shu Yao looked at it, the man was Qi Haoning, and the female porcelain man, wasn't she it? Moreover, the little porcelain figure was wearing the same pink dress she wore when they first met. No wonder Qi Haoning wants to explain to Gui Bo so carefully, this has to be seen by everyone, isn't it ashamed?
Shu Yao looked at the two little porcelain figures and was stunned, it's really too similar, right? Which craftsman has seen her? Can it be so vivid? Oh no, he drew it for the craftsman to follow, right? However, haven't you heard that Ning Shizi can draw? It's so well drawn.
Shu Yao took a closer look at the male version of the little porcelain man, uh, why does it seem to have lost a lot of weight? Aren't all the fine works in Yuecheng excepted? Still so hard? However, there is a more calm momentum between the eyebrows and eyes.
"I really don't know how to take care of myself" Shu Yao couldn't help but say again, and carefully packed the two little porcelain figures, well, when they got married in the future, they put the pair of little porcelain figures on the cabinet at the head of the bed.
Shu Yao thought very naturally, moved naturally, and didn't realize that she was really like a little wife looking forward to the return of her husband now. Although Qi Haoning was far away, his every move over a long period of time, as well as the thick letter like a diary, narrowed the distance between Shu Yao and him little by little.
Shu Yao then opened the green brocade box, and the smell of the sea came to his nose, and the bottom of the box was covered with a layer of fine sand, and there were many different and beautiful shells on the sand, and a large conch.
Shu Yao smiled, he said in his last letter that he would take her to see the sea in the future, and sit on the beach together to count the stars, this is to make her feel the beach in advance? Hehe, Shu Yao likes it very much. She had never seen the sea before, and she had heard that the sea was so big that she could not see the end, and the sea was deep, as high as the sky, and the beach was beautiful......
What's more, Shu Yao likes Qi Haoning's feeling of sharing with him, even if he is in the south and the north, she can feel his heartbeat and "see" his handsome and a little silly smile.
Shu Yao's ears suddenly sounded again, when they had just given the marriage, the silly conversation between the two:
"Yao'er,"
"Huh?"
"You're so good-looking"
ββ¦β¦β
"Yao'er,"
"Huh?"
"We're finally married, hehe"
ββ¦β¦β
"Yao'er,"
"Huh?"
"I'll be nice to you, for the rest of my life."
"The king is a rock, and the concubine is a reed."
"The reeds are like silk, and the rocks are not transferred."
Shu Yao's face was hot, her heart was pounding, she picked up the cup and drank most of the remaining pear juice before calming down, putting away the green brocade box containing the beach, and unfolding the letterhead. (To be continued......)
