Chapter 23 Counted

Mrs. Xu and Xu Tinghe discussed for a while, and they both felt that it was too late to prepare for tomorrow's departure, and finally decided to leave the day after tomorrow.

Xu Cancan left with Xu Yilian and Xu Yitong. When they arrived in the courtyard, Xu Cancan said goodbye to Xu Yilian Xu Yitong, Xu Yilian was still usually steady, but Xu Yitong showed joy from the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, which made Xu Cancan a little puzzled.

At this time, it was already May, and it was the height of summer, and even the nights were very hot. Back in the West Wing, Xu Cancan was already sweating.

She was not busy taking a bath first, took a fan to fan the wind, and called Xiaoxiang into the bedroom.

Xiao Xiang has been guarding the west wing, and finally saw Xu Cancan, she was very happy, took the fan in Xu Cancan's hand, and gently began to fan the wind.

Biyun was in front of the dressing table to pack up the poems that Xu Cancan had copied in the past few days, but found that a few were missing, so he hurriedly told Xu Cancan.

Xu Cancan took it and took a look, and there were two missing in total.

She felt that she had succeeded in practicing calligraphy during this time, so she wanted to write twenty excellent poems bound into a book for her own appreciation, but who knew that Lu Dao had not yet ordered two missing.

She checked for a while before saying: "The two that are missing, one is written by Li Shangyin's "Jin Se", and the other is Bai Juyi's "Flowers Are Not Flowers"!" ”

Biyun is following Xu Cancan these days, and Xiaoxiang is staying in the house, so Xu Cancan and Biyun both look at Xiaoxiang.

Xiao Xiang was a little nervous, and immediately said, "The day before yesterday, Aunt Wei's Liuhua came to play with me......

Xu Cancan felt a little weird, who would steal the words he wrote? Maybe it's wrong.

Thinking about it like this, she didn't care too much, and just told Biyun: "Look if you have lost your valuables!" ”

Biyun hurriedly checked the jewelry box, silver box, wardrobe, etc., and found no missing things.

Xu Cancan looked at the things in his house and thought for a moment: Why don't you make a register of the valuables in the house?

After thinking about it, she smiled.

Compared with Xu Yilian and Xu Yitong, where does she have any property that can be registered?

After Xu Cancan finished taking a bath, it was Biyun's turn, and Biyun asked Xiaoxiang to wash first.

Xiao Xiang, who loves to talk, was not there, and the room was suddenly quiet.

Xu Cancan sat on the bamboo couch and collected the soles of his shoes, while Biyun sewed the uppers on the side.

This is a shoe made for Xu Yipeng. Xu Cancan has promised Xu Yipeng more than a month for these shoes, and there is no shadow yet!

The two were talking and talking, and Xu Cancan wiped his sweat with a handkerchief from time to time.

"When I went to the Dingguo Mansion that day, their room was cool and shady," Xu Cancan rubbed his aching fingers and asked Biyun, "Why are we so hot here?" ”

Biyun said: "The main hall of Luxue Nunnery and the Red Maple Residence that we have been to in Dingguo Mansion have icebergs, so they are cool!" ”

"Iceberg?" Xu Cancan said, "I remember, there is a big silver plate on the screen behind Mrs. Fu, with ice cubes on it, exuding cold, and it is very cool to look at!" ”

She thought about it and sighed: "I'm afraid we can't afford to use it in our house!" ”

Although Xu Tinghe is a second-class official residence, he is an upstart, and his background is insufficient, and he can't afford to use ice in the summer in the house.

Biyun comforted her: "I heard that the favored ladies in the palace can also use ice!" ”

Xu Cancan rolled his eyes: "Well, it's a favored mother!" "If you are not favored, you will even be able to eat and clothe yourself, let alone use ice in summer.

Biyun stared at it, this is indeed the case, so most people are reluctant to send their daughters into the palace. She looked at Xu Cancan's tiny hairy face in the candlelight, and she was worried about her. In the future, if you enter the palace, if you are favored, you will be jealous and in a dangerous situation; If you are not favored, everyone can bully and survive hard......

At this time, Xiaoxiang opened the curtain and entered the bedroom, her hair was still wet, but she was not busy wiping her hair, but first said the gossip she had just heard: "I was pouring water in the courtyard just now, and I heard Fan Yun, who was waiting for the old lady, say that Mrs. wants to tell the fourth girl to Aunt Feng's second son, but the fourth girl thinks it is the eldest son of Feng!" ”

Xu Cancan looked at her and thought for three seconds, only then did he understand that Xu Han's family wanted to marry Xu Yitong to Feng Lian, the son of the Feng family.

At the same time, she remembered that Aunt Wei and Xu Yitong had a crush on Aunt Feng's sister-in-law, Feng Ying.

Biyun and Xu Cancan made eye contact, and they both read the meaning in each other's eyes: This time things are going to make a big fuss!

Aunt Wei and Xu Yitong are not good people, in case things don't go as they want, it's strange if they don't make a big fuss!

Xu Cancan felt that something was wrong with the Xu Mansion. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that it was because the internal management was not strict, and the maids and servants were easy to buy, and as soon as something happened, it spread loudly.

She wondered: What would she do if something like this happened to her?

Fu Yuchen came back from the palace, and as soon as he sat down in the study, Fu Gui handed over a stack of worship posts, and said: "The noble Yingliang is still waiting in the gatehouse!" "Zhongguiren is an honorific title for the eunuchs in the palace.

Fu Yuchen thought for a while, and then said, "Let him come in!" ”

After Yingliang said goodbye, Fu Yuchen stood in front of the study window thinking about his thoughts. Ying Liang is a close confidant eunuch of Dong Guifei of Saitama Palace. The concubines in the palace have always been sensitive to the movements of the court, and since Fu Yuchen returned to Bianjing, where he had been absent for three years, and entered the palace to see Emperor Yong'an, all kinds of visits from the palace concubines have been endless.

And Emperor Yong'an's favorite concubine, Dong Guifei, sent someone to give gifts and make friends, which is a proof of Emperor Yong'an's determination.

Fu Yuchen glanced back at the golden Maitreya Buddha placed in the sandalwood box on the case, and instructed Fu Liu: "Receive it in the warehouse!" He remembered that Fu Bi sent the news that Xu Cancan liked gems and jade the most, and felt that compared to Xu Cancan, these palace concubines were still too vulgar, and they could only give such tacky gifts!

When Fu Liu looked at this big Buddha, he couldn't help but sigh, covered the box, wrapped it in red satin and brought it out. He still has to register before he can enter the warehouse!

"Fu Liu!" As soon as he left the study, he was called back by his son, "Go to the treasury and find out the best quality gems!" ”

"Yes!" Fu Liu agreed and retreated.

Fu Liu was in charge of the private treasury of Zhusheng Courtyard, and he was thinking about which gems to send to Gongzi as he walked. Since Gongzi returned to Bianjing, the private treasury has been increasingly enriched, and there are many boxes for all kinds of gems!

Afraid that Gongzi would be in a hurry, Fu Liu quickly packed four boxes of gems and sent them over.

The four boxes were opened, a box of rubies, a box of emeralds, a box of sapphires, and a box of chrysoberyls, all lined up for Fu Yuchen to choose. The boxes were all piled full, and the smallest was the size of a cherry.

Fu Yuchen looked at it a little and said, "Let's put it here first!" ”

In the evening, Fu Yuchen handed Fu Liu four drawings and looked at the words marked on them, which were a gold silk inlaid ruby lotus sideburns, a gold inlaid emerald mint leaf bracelet, a gold silk inlaid sapphire hollow pear blossom distraction and a chrysoberyl beaded bun.

Fu Liu didn't dare to ask more, so he took the drawings and gems and went to the craftsman.

The next day was Fu Yuchen's rest day, and he didn't need to enter the palace, so he prepared to meet people in the palace.

As soon as he sat down in the courtyard outside the Zhusheng Courtyard, Fu Gui came in with a letter with a strange expression: "Young man, the second girl of the Xu Mansion ordered the little girl to send a letter over!" ”

Fu Yuchen was stunned for a moment, his heart beat violently, he took the letter and opened it, and found that he was asked to go to Wild Duck Lake, signed "Xu Cancan worships".

Fu Gui made a courtesy report: "The slave has already let Xue Ying see it, and it is indeed Miss Xu's handwriting; also let people go to the West City Gate to check, and as soon as there is news that Xu Mansion is out of the city, he will come back to report! ”

Fu Yuchen did not speak.

He didn't believe that Xu Cancan would write a letter to him, but after thinking about it again, he felt that Xu Cancan's age, J Division, maybe he would impulsively want to see him...... Or maybe she really had something to do with him...... It didn't take long for the personal soldiers sent to the West City Gate to report back: "The butler of Xu Shilang's Mansion escorted two carriages out of the West City Gate and went west along the official road, and people have already followed!"
