Chapter 161: When a woman cries, it doesn't look good
On the second day of the first month of May, the sky was clear and sunny, and the good news of Southern Summer came. Southern Xia rebelled, the new emperor supported less than three days, Pingshun Marquis and Xiao Changyi came to the city, submitted the surrender again, and set up the capital in the capital of Southern Xia to show sincerity.
On the tenth day of the fifth month, the weather was not beautiful, and it rained heavily. On this day, the Marquis of Pingshun returned to Beijing, and the officials above the third rank of the court and the central government greeted him at the gate of the city.
"Miss, Miss, someone from the Pingshun Hou Mansion is here."
The fish put away the umbrella and ran in in a panic, unaware that it was wet with rain.
Chu Yan nestled on the hammock, threw the nuts in her hand into her mouth, and said vaguely: "There is someone from the Pingshun Hou Mansion, what are you excited about?" β
"Ouch, my young lady!! Do you know, Dong family, this is here to show off!! β
Yu'er was in a hurry, looking at her young lady's appearance of not caring about herself, she suddenly became even more anxious. Tell me, how can you be so calm when everyone else comes to show off?
Chu Yan finally swallowed the contents of her mouth, then got up, patted Yu'er's shoulder, and comforted: "I said dear, don't get excited." It's good that Pingshun Hou has also been fighting abroad for so long, and his hard work is high! When you come back, send someone to see your daughter, why are you in a hurry? β
"No, no, no, Pingshun Hou Tuo brought a lot of gifts to the Six Princes' Mansion, and then, Concubine Dong's mother-in-law also came."
The fish began to stutter when they spoke anxiously. The person who came from the Pingshun Hou Mansion was the head of the house, and the things sent were all brought back from Nanxia, except for the pair of objects for Concubine Dong and the Sixth Prince, but for his own young lady, it was a simple object. It's not about the value of the object, it's just that it's not a clear slap in the face of your own lady? It's really a nose kick in the face!!
"Oh, somebody's giving a gift?"
Chu Yan smiled knowingly and continued, "This is a good thing!! How good is it to sell the gift for money? β
It's not that Chu Yan only has money in her eyes, really, what's the point of you guarding this room? It's better to change some money and invest something else.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, it was exchanged for a big white eye from the fish girl. "Miss, you are the princess, will you lack that money?"
"Fish, do you know that investment is to use fixed money in exchange for more money." Occasionally, when it's okay, how good it is to play and invest!!
Chu Yan knew a rich and handsome man in his previous life, that loser, others gave him a lot of cars, and the loser drove his own car every day to hit his own car, and after scrapping it, he said: "Come, change the car and hit it." β
Later, the rich and handsome family went bankrupt, and there was only a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron left, and there was not a single good car. Since then, Chu Yan has warned herself that you must be prepared for danger in times of peace, if you have money now, it doesn't mean that you will have money in the future, it is better to make some investments, in case you go bankrupt, it will not be too miserable. Hmm, count her assets now, the Bird's Nest, the ten shops in Jiangyinβ’β’β’β’β’β’ should all be counted as their own, right? ?
Investment, of course, the fish don't understand. The girl looked at Chu Yan blankly, not understanding what her young lady meant at all.
Knowing that Yu'er didn't understand, Chu Yan didn't bother to explain, so she didn't have to take Yu'er's girl astray. So he said earnestly: "My dear, in the future, you must not be so short-sighted, the Dong family sent someone to give a gift, no matter what it is, we will accept it, whether it is unreasonable or unruly, some people will comment." Besides, I have always refused to give gifts.
Yu'er blinked her eyes, nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, Yu'er knows." β
However, the Dong family did this, they really didn't take their own young lady seriously, and they were really angry with her!!
After a while, Mu Zexi sent someone to invite Chu Yan to go out to meet guests, as the hostess, this point is conscious, Chu Yan is more or less there now.
"Yu'er, go down and entertain Mrs. Dong well."
This means something, and Chu Yan's eyes are too evil and obscene, Yu'er only glanced at it, and understood her young lady's careful thoughts. So he confessed: "You, go and brew the latest Lushan Yunwu Tea with the most boiling boiling water and send it to Mrs. Dong." If Mrs. Dong is not used to drinking, she will change the tea she doesn't want at will. β
"You, go to the kitchen to explain, Concubine Dong likes to eat spicy food these days, the chef in our house is very good at making spicy dishes, twenty different spicy dishes, if you can't come up within an hour, just wait for it to stop doing it!"
"You, Mrs. Dong and Pingshun Hou are on the border of Nanxia all the year round, I think I haven't tasted the famous pastries in the capital for many years, you go to the south of the city to buy ten packs of crispy back, by the way, send ten people to go, the momentum is huge."
"You β’β’β’β’β’β’β’β’"
There is a smart, sensible and scheming girl, Chu Yan can be much more worry-free. I saw the fish girl standing outside the courtyard, one hand on her waist, and the other hand clicked a few times, and then assigned everyone to the task.
Chu Yan clapped her hands and yawned, "Yu'er, master, I haven't recovered from the wind chill yet, that, the living room is too cold, send someone to burn the earth dragon, let's go over after a while." β
The fish girl pursed her lips and snickered, and glanced at Chu Yan with disgust, her own young lady is really, really bad.
It is said that after Mrs. Dong came to the Six Princes' Mansion, Concubine Dong was naturally the happiest, and her mother came from here, which gave her enough face, so in order to show that Mu Zexi attached importance to her, the first thing Concubine Dong did was to send someone to invite Mu Zexi to accompany her.
In the living room, Mu Zexi sat on the top, Concubine Dong was the first on the right side, and Mrs. Dong was the first on the left, forming an equilateral triangle.
As soon as he sat down, a maid came up to serve tea and showed it to Mu Zexi, followed by Mrs. Dong and Concubine Dong.
Mu Zexi glanced at the tea, didn't move, sat there and continued to listen to Mrs. Dong foaming at the mouth and telling him about how Pingshun Hou subdued Nanxia, thinking in his heart: After talking for so long, I'm afraid I'm also thirsty, right?
"Mrs. Dong, please use tea, this is the latest tea in the palace this year."
When the maid had finished speaking, she put the tea aside and withdrew herself.
When Mrs. Dong said that she was happy, her voice couldn't help but raise a lot, and she happened to have tea, and she didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, so she took a sip of tea and took a sip of it.
"Poof!!!!
Suddenly, a mouthful of tea was squirted out, and Mrs. Dong stretched out her tongue, threw the teacup on the coffee table, and shouted, "Scald me to death!!! β
Concubine Dong's face froze, and she ordered embarrassedly: "Come on, change to a cooler glass." β
I thought that my mother-in-law could give herself a long face when she came, but I didn't expect that she would be so embarrassed in front of Mu Zexi, really, how would she face Mu Zexi in the future!!
Mrs. Dong nodded embarrassedly at Mu Zexi, "I'm sorry, let the sixth prince smile, this tea is too hot!" β
Mu Zexi bowed his head and didn't speak, but just ordered: "Go get some medicine." β
If you drink such hot boiling water, you are not a dead pig, but I am afraid that you will have to suffer some hardships. Thinking of this, Mu Zexi actually wanted to laugh. It's just that Prince Mu has always been thoughtful, so naturally he would not do such a joke. It's just in my heart, I smiled quietly.
As soon as she heard that Mu Zexi was going to get medicine for herself, Mrs. Dong also felt that she seemed to be a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly stopped: "Don't bother, don't bother, it's a trivial matter." β
Then he pretended to be calm and glanced at the concubine Dong.
Receiving her mother-in-law's eyes, Concubine Dong hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, prince, don't bother." The concubine will accompany her mother to take a look later. β
"Come on, change to a cooler cup of tea."
The maidservant outside the door hurriedly brought a cup of cool tea and handed it over.
Mrs. Dong was a little smarter this time, probed the temperature of the water, and then took a sip of the teacup, and suddenly squirted out again.
This time, Concubine Dong's luck was not very good, she was very close to Mrs. Dong, so the tea that was sprayed by Mrs. Dong coincidentally sprayed all of it on Concubine Dong's face.
Concubine Dong was suddenly stunned and petrified in place, the fat powder on her face was infected by water, and Concubine Dong's somewhat yellowed face was suddenly revealed, and the whole person instantly became ugly.
"Mother, motherβ’β’β’β’β’β’β’" Concubine Dong looked like she was about to cry, looking at Mrs. Dong aggrievedly, she was sprayed in public with such an embarrassing thing, and she was still in front of Mu Zexi, she couldn't wait to find a hole to get into.
Mu Zexi sat on the top with his eyes down, as if he was thinking about something, his face was as usual, and he couldn't see any emotion.
Concubine Dong was crying with a sad face, thinking that she could make a long face in front of Mu Zexi today, but now that something like this happened, she was suddenly ashamed and angry, and her tears fell down.
Mrs. Dong was so frightened that she quickly stood up, grabbed Concubine Dong, and comforted: "Pregnant women can't cry, you, don't cry!" β
Concubine Dong was so frightened that she turned around aggrievedly and looked at Mu Zexi with red eyes.
Before Mu Zexi could say anything, an extreme, trembling voice came from outside the door: "Concubine Ben is late!! Mrs. Dong is not strange~~~~"
Then a fiery red dress fluttered outside the door, Chu Yan applied light makeup slightly, her hair was simply pulled in half, and with a step shake, there was a kind of beauty that people couldn't move away from when walking.
"Ouch~~~ Why are you still crying?? Hey, don't cry, don't cry~~~ When a woman cries, it's not good-looking~~~"
Chu Yan walked quickly to Concubine Dong with her skirt, pretending to be stunned at first, and then took out a handkerchief from her arms, which had been prepared a long time ago, and was about to wipe away Concubine Dong's tears, when she suddenly thought about it again and said, "Come on, bring a basin of water." β
Concubine Dong stared at Chu Yan with a pale face, now that her makeup has been ruined, her original appearance is mediocre, and now she is stuck in the crowd and the mines can't explode.
On the other hand, Chu Yan, although she wore a little light makeup and her hair was not very well managed, she dumped her several streets.
The more she looked at it, Concubine Dong's heart was like a thorn, recalling that day when Mu Zexi left her alone in the city tower, hatred suddenly filled her entire brain.
However, Chu Yan doesn't care, anyway, it's good to thank Mrs. Dong for giving her a gift on behalf of her daughter today, it doesn't matter if she wants to kill herself or chop herself or destroy herself, it doesn't matter~~~~
After the maid's water was ready, Chu Yan handed the handkerchief to Concubine Dong and said gently: "My sister is pregnant, have you asked the imperial doctor to test whether these fat powders are harmful to your body?" Oh, and by the way, these teas are even more undrinkable. Sister wash it herself, sister is clumsy, don't hurt my sister. β
