40. Raise a child
Old Madam Yin was stunned, looked at Lin Mu'er who was full of worry, and smiled with relief: "If you hold it, you should raise it for fun, where is the bloodline of the Jin Palace, the emperor will not object!" β
There is something to be said in this saying! Lin Mu'er chuckled in her heart, and looked at the old lady's eyes with a little inquiry. Old Madam Yin was still smiling, as if she didn't see Lin Mu'er's eyes, sighed, and continued: "Although I haven't seen Ah Yan's corpse, I always don't want to believe it, but people always have to plan for themselves, and they must always have a hope, right?" In my life, I am not blessed to have my own children, but fortunately, Qiguang has been raised in me since childhood, this child is filial and sensible, and I can be regarded as enjoying the fun of children and grandchildren! So, I wondered, you married into the royal family, other thoughts are impossible, only to raise a child, raise it in front of you, how can you have fun? You say, don't you? β
"Yes!" Lin Mu'er saw that Mrs. Yin didn't want to find fault with herself, so she followed her words and said: "I have lived in the boudoir for a long time, and I am not familiar with these people's feelings and sophistication. β
Old Madam Yin nodded, her eyes full of joy: "If Mu Yatou can trust me, I will not refuse!" However, this matter is not urgent, you are still young now, and it is okay to wait a few more years, this matter, take it to heart and check it slowly, the Jin Wangfu is the prince's mansion in the end, the family is big, and there must be some people with bad minds coveting it, don't be in a hurry, you must always find a satisfactory one! β
"Yes!" Lin Mu'er also agreed, and nodded with a smile.
As he was talking, he heard Aunt Gui Zhen come to report, saying that several ladies wanted to see her, so Mrs. Yin stopped talking and let them in.
"Niangniang, this is my mother's specialty, it is not common in the capital, my mother's brother only sent it over yesterday, and I will always give it a fresh one!" After a salute, Mrs. Cui smiled and asked the girl to serve a black strip of meat.
"Thank you, Mrs. Shizi!" Lin Mu'er wasn't sure what it was for a while, but she still politely thanked her.
"Grandma, you are really a good abacus, a bacon wants to eat the mother's chrysanthemum cake! It's so picky! Mother, this is my own plum wine, you can try it too! The Shang family on the side beckoned the girl to offer plum wine in a celadon jar, and smiled while holding a handkerchief. Niangniang, don't you know, just after you went out in the morning, grandma was worried about your chrysanthemum cake, and said that such a delicate snack, I don't know if you can eat it! β
"Just your mouth!" Cui Shi didn't see annoyance, and said with a smile: "Say that I slam the door, you don't ask me to give you two pieces of bacon when you catch Ming'er!" Besides, I don't know who said it, the next time I go to visit Niangniang, I beg Niangniang to make a chrysanthemum cake! γ...*Aiqi Literature ~Β₯Free Readingγ
Shang didn't refute either, and smiled while hiding his handkerchief: "Yes, yes!" β
Seeing the two ladies joking, Lin Mu'er also said softly: "It's not difficult for ladies to like to eat chrysanthemum cakes, Ming'er, I'll ask the cook to make some more and send them to everyone!" β
"You all hug it
Grandson's man too! In front of the mother, I still think of ways to beg for food, and I am not afraid of being embarrassed! Old Madam Yin scolded helplessly, "Mu girl, don't care about them, let them be greedy!" β
"Old lady, Mu'er is not at a loss, you see, I just make some chrysanthemum cakes, and the ladies take a lot of food that I have never seen, and I still earn it!" Lin Mu'er said with a smile.
"You!" Old Madam Yin couldn't do it, so she happily watched a few ladies befriend Lin Mu'er, and she didn't say anything more.
Several other ladies were not far behind and took out their own gifts, the third lady Yue was a handkerchief embroidered by herself, and the fourth lady Yue was a pot of orchids that she took care of herself. These are not valuable things, but they have a lot of heart in them. The most thoughtful, the penultimate son's side wife Luo, sent a set of books on the Four Seas, saying that it was human geography and anecdotes that were all-encompassing, and gave it to Lin Muer to relieve boredom. Lin Mu'er smiled and accepted it one by one, and asked Mother Xie and the others to accept it properly.
After some laughter and talking, the hour was not early, and Lin Mu'er saw that Mrs. Yin was also a little tired, so she got up and said goodbye: "It's not too early, I've been bothering for a long time today, and I should go back!" β
"Let's go after dinner, and let Wenyu take you to the yard?" Wenyu is the name of Mrs. Shizi, and Mrs. Yin opened her mouth to keep it.
"Not today, next time I come back, but I have to bother Mrs. Shizi to take me to the courtyard for a walk, so that I can ask for advice on how to take care of the garden." Lin Mu'er refused, and deliberately frowned and worried: "If I come diligently, the old lady won't be annoyed by me, right?" β
"What the hell! I can't ask for it! As long as you don't hate me as an old man, I'm welcome to come every day! When the old lady heard this, the wrinkles on her smiling face stretched a lot.
Lin Mu'er also smiled brightly: "Okay, then I'll come every day!" β
At one word, everyone laughed again.
"Okay, then I won't keep you, there are many affairs in the palace, you are young, if you don't understand, my daughters-in-law have been in charge of the family for many years, you can assign them!" Old Madam Yin pointed to the ladies and said to Lin Mu'er with a smile.
Lin Mu'er was blessed: "With the words of the old lady, my heart will be much more stable, and I will inevitably trouble the ladies when the time comes!" The old lady said politely, but Lin Mu'er couldn't hold her own identity, and was still modest and polite.
"Niangniang is polite, as long as you can use our place, you can just speak!" Mrs. Shizi is also a cool person, and she happily took the conversation.
After a few words, Aunt Gui Zhen had already prepared a lot of tonic medicines, and Lin Mu'er couldn't help but thank her again. Old Madam Yin's legs and feet were inconvenient, so she asked several ladies to send Lin Mu'er out of the general's mansion.
In the Yiran Pavilion in the General's Mansion, Aunt Gui Zhen was dismantling the bun for Old Madam Yin: "Old lady, how do you feel when you see Princess Jin today?" β
Old Madam Yin's face was slightly relieved, and she smiled slightly: "It looks like a weak and helpless little pitiful, but it is an idea, this Jin Palace, I'm afraid it can be supported!" β
When Aunt Gui Zhen heard this, she was also happy
Shang Mei: "The old lady is always right to look at people, so you don't have to worry!" β
"Alas! It's over, the emperor has done a good thing for Ah Yan! Old Madam Yin's words were resentful, because when it came to today's saint, Aunt Gui Zhen couldn't answer, so she had to say a few vague sentences and wait for Old Madam Yin to take a nap.
When Lin Mu'er arrived at the Jin Palace, the sun was already about to set westward. Fu Ye also waited at the door early, Lin Mu'er got out of the car, and Fu Ye followed behind and said: "Niangniang, after you leave today, Princess He'an's Mansion has sent a lot of things, and there is an invitation card, saying that you are invited to go to the Princess's Mansion to taste tea the day after tomorrow." β
"Princess He'an's Mansion?" Lin Mu'er looked puzzled, paused and looked at Fu Ye: "Tea?" β
"Yes! That's what the person said, the old slave of the invitation card has been sent to Weiyueju, Niangniang, you still don't go, let's give a reply to the princess's mansion. Fu Ye said slowly.
"Why did this He'an Princess Mansion send me an invitation?" Lin Mu'er couldn't figure it out for a while. I have never met Princess He'an, and I have no intersection, how could I send myself an invitation?
"Why does this princess's name sound familiar?" Mother Xie on the side was also a little puzzled.
"Mom forgot? On that day, at the gate of Yin's yamen in Jingzhao Mansion, we also met the grandson of Princess He'an, the little prince of the princess's mansion, Lu Gongzi. "Lan Xue has been in the palace for many years, and her interpersonal relationship is much more exquisite.
"Lu Yizhi?" Lin Mu'er was even more puzzled, "Isn't this stinky boy talking nonsense?" Lin Mu'er didn't forget the lawless appearance of the little overlord that day.
"No, it stands to reason that Lu Shizi helped us that day!" Mother Xie shook her head and said.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Mu'er said to Fu Ye: "After all, Princess He'an is an elder, and the elders invite her, I can't refuse, just say that I will participate on time the day after tomorrow!" β
"Yes! The old slave will do it! Fu Ye got the letter, and he withdrew with a smile.
When she arrived at Weiyue Residence, Lin Mu'er was startled by the gift sent by Princess He'an in the house!
"Master! You're back! Look at this satin! This one! This jade! And these things! Qingcheng's eyes were glowing with gold, and he couldn't stop wandering around the gifts on the table that were about to pile up into a small mountain.
"This..."Mother Xie and Lan Xue also looked at each other, don't say Mother Xie, even Lan Xue has been in the palace for so many years, and there are not many things like such luxury.
"Tsk! This coral head surface is bright in color and complicated in workmanship, I'm afraid it will cost thousands of taels of silver, right? Hongxing was also shocked by what was on the table.
"Yes, look at this jade chess piece, it's warm to the touch, so comfortable!" Qingcheng couldn't help but touch it lightly.
Mother Xie also stared at the two silk horses and said: "Lan Xue, come and see, this is a golden brocade?" β
When Lan Xue heard this, she hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, and gasped: "It's not!" What a golden brocade! "No wonder Mother Xie and Lan Xue were surprised, this golden brocade is extremely rare, it is woven from the unique silkworm silk on Tianqi Peak, and the silkworm keepers feed it from ordinary spring silkworms
All kinds of medicines, ordinary spring silkworms can't stand it, so a large number of deaths, only a very small number of spring silkworms have withstood the medicinal properties, transformed into silkworms, this silkworm is golden all over, spit out the silk is faintly contained in some gold, the amount is not obvious, but if it is made into a dress, even if it is not embroidered with any patterns, in the sun, this gold can also loom, which is breathtaking!
Seeing a few people who couldn't help but marvel, Lin Mu'er was even more big, what is the purpose of this princess He'an being so generous?
"Lan Xue, can the prince have a close relationship with Princess He'an?" Lin Mu'er thought for a long time, so she had to start with the King of Jin first, if the King of Jin was already friendly with Princess He'an, such a heavy gift would barely make sense.
Seeing Lin Mu'er asking, Lan Xue collected her curiosity and thought about it seriously: "The slave seems to have never heard the prince mention Princess He'an, and on weekdays, she has no contact with the princess's mansion, but after all, she is an elder, so she just sends some gifts for the New Year!" β
Lin Mu'er's brows furrowed even deeper, no friendship? That's even weirder!
