When the old lady heard this, she was moved and hurriedly asked, "How old are you and how do you look?" ”

"Twenty-six, with a serious temperament and good looks, otherwise my daughter-in-law wouldn't dare to mention it to her mother." As she spoke, the third lady instructed her subordinates to carry the dowry into the warehouse.

The old lady nodded and smiled: "That's a good feeling, go back and ask your aunt if she is free, if she can be free, she will come to our house as a guest." ”

Both ethnic groups are local families in Xunyang, and the old lady and the third lady's maiden family are familiar with each other. The third lady didn't stick to anything, and she was also happy in her heart, and agreed: "That's right, my aunt hasn't seen her mother for many years, so she must have a lot of intimate things to say." After a while, the daughter-in-law wrote a letter to the family and asked them to send it back. ”

As he spoke, the will of the palace arrived.

Qing Ruxu saved Princess Chonghua earlier, and bothered to diagnose and treat Princess Hanyuan, she should have been rewarded a long time ago, the Queen Mother intended to make her the county monarch, but there were accidents in the palace one after another, and the emperor didn't have much to care about these trivial matters, so it was delayed, this time Concubine Hui gave birth to the little prince and was promoted to the imperial concubine, and Qing Ruxu who saved the little prince was also indispensable, although there were few people who knew about it, but it did not prevent the emperor from directly sealing her as the county lord of Chong'an.

The daughter of a prince is the lord of the county, which is a great honor.

The emperor had already mentioned this matter to Qing Hong before, and Qing Hong also explained it to the old lady Qing Ruxu when he came back, so everyone was not surprised, and immediately put someone on the incense case and other matters, and went to listen to the order and receive the reward.

Du Ruo Ge.

Today is the day of the appointment of the Rongguo Mansion, Qing Ruchu got up early, with a smile on her face, and was in a particularly good mood, specially wearing a jade-colored embroidered hundred butterfly long skirt and combing a high bun. This time, she held the dowry list copied by the maidservant Chun'er in her hand, and looked at it carefully with a smile, "The skinny camel is bigger than the horse, this Rongguo Mansion is really a surprise, no wonder Qi Ayaxue finally compromised!" ”

Chunmian and Chun'er glanced at each other when they heard this, and their eyes also showed joy, both of them were newly selected to serve Du Ruoge's maidservants, and they were the girls that Qing Ruchu valued more, and the two of them wanted to marry her to the Rongguo Mansion together, and they might have to be their aunts in the future, and naturally hoped that the Rongguo Mansion would be good, the house would be good, and Qing Ru would be good, Qing Ru was good, and they were the next people, so they could follow the light.

Chunmian said diligently: "The person who prayed for the county lord, the slave maid has also heard a lot of rumors, she has always been above the top, even if she is calculated, it is not completely impossible to get rid of it, and it is a big deal to go to the nunnery for two years and avoid it, right?" In the end, she still fell in love with the position of Duchess Rongguo. ”

Qing Ruchu stroked the gift list, as if caressing the treasures on it, and said casually: "This is reasonable, but it is not entirely true, she is not young after all, and it will take a few more years, but she will be an old girl, coupled with her embarrassing identity, who will marry her when the time comes?" Could it be that she will eventually succumb to a small family, if that is the case, it is better to marry into the Rongguo Mansion, isn't it?"

Chun'er admitted: "In short, no matter how good the Lord of the Prayer County is, he can't match the girl's you, just look at the things sent over, you can see how much the Rongguo Mansion values the girl!" As soon as you get married, you can take over the middle feed of the house and be the housewife, and you don't have to set any rules in front of your in-laws! ”

Qing Ruchu shook her fingers when she heard this, and lowered her eyelashes slightly, "Okay, you guys go down first, I want to take a nap." ”

"Yes, girl."

The two girls had only heard the rumors of Qi Ayaxue's relationship with the Lin family outside, and they didn't know that Qing Ruchu's relationship with Lin Yi also had an inside story, so they didn't suspect anything and quit obediently.

Qing Ruchu's hand unconsciously touched her lower abdomen, her little life has passed for a few days, could it be said that she really hit it once? If she can become a man in one fell swoop, the entire Rongguo Mansion will be hers! What is Ayaxue? It's a pity that the days are still short and I can't see it......

She was thinking about it, and Chun Mian went and returned: "Girl, the palace has come to the will, and the masters in the palace will go to the front yard to listen to the order." Slave and maid will tidy up your clothes! ”

Qing Ruchu was surprised: "Listen to the order? Is it a will for whom? ”

"I heard that the eldest girl saved the princess, and the emperor decreed that she was the county lord, and also rewarded a lot of good things, and the slaves and maids who saw it were dazzled!"

A trace of unhappiness flashed in Qing Ruchu's eyes, but she didn't show it, she is now a good girl in the house, and she doesn't want to cause trouble easily, "In that case, let's go quickly, this is a great thing for my sister!" ”

The two girls stepped forward and quickly helped Qing Ruchu tidy up her dress, and the master and servant went out of Du Ruoge to the front yard.

When they arrived at the front yard, they saw Qing Ruxu holding the moon in the middle, Qing Rulan smiled as if she had been rewarded, although the old lady did not show too much joy, but also looked at Qing Ruxu with a smile, quite a feeling of "my granddaughter is a peerless treasure, no one can compare".

Qing Ruchu couldn't help but feel a sore heart, in the past, her grandmother and father's hearts were favored.

The girls and mothers-in-law in the courtyard of Qingru Xu also smiled one by one, and the people in the house couldn't help but widen their eyes when they watched the boxes of rewards brought in, and there were several pages of the gift list that the chamberlain was reading.

Among them, in addition to the rewards from the emperor and the queen mother, there are also congratulatory gifts from Concubine Chen and the fourteenth princess, and of course Empress Chen's is indispensable, after all, Qingru helped her daughter Princess Hanyuan to cure her illness. Even if she is pretending, Empress Chen has to show it.

Qing Ruchu looked at all this, maintaining a gentle smile on her face, and her demeanor seemed to have returned to the time when the house was calm and calm in the past, when she was sensible and gentle and sympathetic to her eldest sister, and coaxed everyone in the house with her mother. But now, she pretended to be calm on her face, and she couldn't be as humble and aggrieved as before......

Of course, Qing Ruxu also saw Qing Ruchu, and her expression was much more natural: "Second sister." ”

Everyone looked back when they heard the voice, and when they saw Qing Ruchu's expression, they couldn't help but show an unnatural look, especially the third lady, obviously she still cared about Qing Ruchu's actions and almost ruined Qing Rulan's family affairs.

Qing Ruchu stepped forward lightly, saluted everyone one by one, and then faced Qing Ruxu and said, "Congratulations, big sister." ”

Qing Ruxu smiled faintly: "Thank you, second sister." ”

At this point, the two had nothing to say, and they were very estranged.

The old lady saw it in her eyes, and sighed secretly in her heart, and hated Xiao Song more and more, but the person was already dead, and it was useless to say anything now. "Okay, okay, all kneel down and listen to the order."

All the things that were given were carried into the courtyard, and the attendant immediately read the will, and said his joy with a smile on his face, and then he left with a bag full of rewards.

The third lady said: "Xu'er, after you count these things, the third aunt will add them to your dowry list." ”

Qing Ruxu thought that the day when she and Jiang Rin got married was approaching day by day, and couldn't help but purse her lips and smile: "Thank you, third aunt." ”

Qing Ruchu was very uncomfortable listening to it on the side, just now she was still complacent about the dowry of the Rongguo Mansion, and now she was looking at Qing Ruxu, and she felt a basin of cold water.

The old lady was not very happy when she looked at the things rewarded in the palace, but asked everyone to disperse, took Qingru Xu back to Songhe Hall, and looked at her seriously, "Xu'er, the affairs in the palace are very involved, how can you easily get involved?" Although you helped Concubine Hui, you offended the queen. And the queen's younger brother has made a great contribution this time, the Chen family will definitely eliminate dissidents in one go, although your father is a close minister of the Son of Heaven and is appreciated by the queen mother and the emperor, but you don't know that you are not careful every step of the way, and you dare not miss half a point. ”

"Grandmother, listen to your granddaughter."

Back then, Qing Hong hid from everyone to help the Queen Mother send away the son of the Imperial Concubine, and even the emperor didn't know, but Jiang Rin and the Qing Mansion were so close, of course the Queen Mother, an insider, would not notice anything, but she acquiesced in Jiang Rin's return to the capital and even became a vassal of the emperor, which shows that the Queen Mother has the intention to let this grandson restore the identity of the prince.

But now that the emperor is strong and strong, the queen mother is also happy to respect Jiang Rin's choice not to tell about this matter. But this does not mean that others will be indifferent after knowing about this matter, and no one knows what the consequences will be after Jiang Rin's identity is revealed.

And Empress Chen has been investigating the matter of respecting the imperial concubine, if she learns the truth and knows that Qing Hong is the initiator of all this, she will definitely think that the Qing family is on Jiang Rin's side to help him compete for the throne, and in fact, if there is really that day, the Qing family will definitely be on Jiang Rin's side.

So no matter what, Empress Chen and the Qing Mansion have always been on the opposite side.

This is why Qing Ruxu followed the meaning of the cloak man to check on Queen Chen. As for her own matter, there is always a way to solve it.

On the other hand, Queen Chen made it difficult for Qing Ruxu everywhere because of the approval of the order, and then Qing Ruxu saved Princess Chonghua by chance, which led to the failure of Queen Chen's strategy, and there was a discord between her daughter Princess Hanyuan, which was simply a loss to her wife and a soldier, and it was impossible for Queen Chen not to hold a grudge.

This time, she and Jiang Rin wanted to take advantage of Concubine Hui's matter to move to Empress Chen in one fell swoop, although Empress Chen may not be aware of all the plans, but Qing Ruxu helped Concubine Hui and almost let Empress Chen be disposed of by the emperor, which was enough to settle a grudge.

But these things can't be let the old lady know for the time being, she is old, she can't be stimulated, in case she worries too much, what kind of lesions she has, but it is not what Qing Ruxu wants to see. She hopes that her grandmother will live a long life, watch her become her own child, and watch her be happy.

Qingru Xu pondered for a moment, she could only use the incident of Princess Chonghua as an excuse, she held the old lady's hand, and said: "Grandmother, you also know that Queen Chen and Liu Niangniang are incompatible, and the last time her granddaughter inadvertently saved Princess Chonghua, the queen held a grudge against her granddaughter. But the granddaughter doesn't regret it, and you know that in that situation, such a young child, the granddaughter can't bear to ignore it anyway...... If it was a grandmother, grandmother would definitely reach out to help......"
