Chapter 358: Adding a Box
After much hesitation, the eldest princess finally chose the jewelry and put it on under the service of the maid.
At this time, the eunuch beside the eldest prince came, followed by a little eunuch holding a beautiful box, and said respectfully: "Niangniang, Your Highness ordered the slave maid to send the gift." ”
The eldest princess was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of my father-in-law, Jin Zhi, don't take it quickly!" ”
Jin Zhi stepped forward to take it, her hands sank, and she almost fell to the ground, she didn't expect this delicate little box to be so heavy.
The eunuch left after giving the gift, and the eldest princess's eyes couldn't help but rest on the delicate box, and said with a smile: "Open it and take a look." ”
Jin Zhi hesitated and persuaded: "Niangniang, is this appropriate?" ”
The eldest princess smiled: "What's inappropriate? Since it is the main palace to give gifts, it is natural to know what kind of gift is given! Besides, His Highness doesn't know what the girl's family likes, so it's not good if there is a mistake or omission. ”
I have to say that what the eldest princess said is also reasonable, Jin Zhi put down the box and opened it, whether it was the eldest princess or the maid beside her, she had to forget to breathe for a while.
Jeweled and beautiful, this delicate little box is full of precious jewelry, not inferior to the most exquisite jewelry in the princess's own collection.
As soon as she thought of giving these to Rong Xuan, the eldest princess felt like she was going to drip blood. Each of these pieces of jewelry is very precious, each one is the best, and she is reluctant to accept each one.
If it wasn't for the box to be sent to Rong Xuan, shouldn't all these jewelry be hers? This is simply ripping out the flesh of one's own heart!
Jin Zhi also came back to his senses from his distraction and muttered, "Niangniang, even if you want to add a box to Miss Rong, Your Highness is too generous, right?" ”
The eldest princess didn't feel this way in her heart, and even regretted it a little in her heart, regretting why she didn't make friends with Rong Xuan in the first place.
If she had a close relationship with Rong Xuan at the beginning, she wouldn't have had to make friends without effort, and she wouldn't have needed so many expensive jewelry.
Although she was very reluctant in her heart, although her heart was dripping with blood, the eldest princess finally understood that Her Royal Highness must know the value of these jewelry, and it must have been carefully considered.
And she must not make her own decisions, although she would love to pick out some of the jewelry and put it in her jewelry box.
But she didn't do it after all, because she cherished the transfer between her and the eldest prince even more, because this turnaround was not easy to come by, and it was difficult to miss it again.
When you wait for the day when you are in the world, what kind of jewelry will you want? The eldest princess comforted herself like this in her heart.
The eldest princess took a deep breath and said, "Don't be so shallow, hold the box, let's go!" ”
The car of the Great Prince's Mansion slowly came to the Rong Mansion, which immediately alarmed the Rong Mansion, and Mrs. Rong came to greet him in person.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Mrs. Rong took the maids and women to salute.
The eldest princess stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Rong, and said coquettishly: "Auntie, don't be so polite, Sister Xuan is about to get married, I am here to say hello today." I think we were chanting poetry together as if it was yesterday, and we were about to get married in the blink of an eye. ”
Mrs. Rong smiled: "Yes, time is like water, in a blink of an eye, you have all grown up, and we are also old!" ”
The eldest princess smiled: "Look at what you said, auntie, you are still young!" I'm here today to see Sister Xuan and talk to Sister Xuan, and to add boxes to Sister Xuan. ”
Mrs. Rong was very puzzled in her heart, very suspicious of the eldest princess's sudden arrival, very suspicious of the eldest princess's affectionate aunt, and very suspicious of the eldest princess's intimacy with Xuan's girl.
Because she knew that when the eldest princess was still a girl who had not yet left the cabinet, although she often participated in poetry meetings with Rong Xuan, she was not very familiar. Therefore, the sudden arrival of the eldest princess is surprising.
After the eldest princess finished talking about adding boxes, her personal maid Jin Zhi immediately took two steps forward with a delicate alley.
Mrs. Rong hurriedly excused herself: "I can't help it, I can't help it, you are good sisters in the boudoir, it's excellent to come to her to talk, and you don't need to add boxes." ”
The eldest princess took the heavy box from Jin Zhi's hand and said with a smile: "Auntie, this is too polite, it's just a few pieces of jewelry, talk about my heart, this is also a congratulatory blessing for Sister Xuan, the emphasis is on a celebration, if Auntie refuses, won't it seem that I and Sister Xuan are separated?" ”
Mrs. Rong said with a smile: "Your Highness can come to see her and talk, this is your affection, and the sisterhood is not in the box, so you can't bother Your Highness to spend money." ”
The eldest princess insisted: "Auntie, it's just a few pieces of jewelry, where can it be called a broken fee?" If my aunt even refuses to congratulate me, it will make me embarrassed! It's like Sister Xuan doesn't recognize me as a best friend. ”
As she spoke, the eldest princess stuffed the small box in her hand to Mrs. Rong, who was very helpless, but had to take it with a smile.
Mrs. Rong felt that it was very tricky, and she didn't want to accept it at all, but sometimes she couldn't accept it. She also looked forward to it, if it was really just a few ordinary pieces of jewelry, it would be fine, and when the eldest prince or eldest princess had his birthday, she would prepare a generous gift and return the favor.
Seeing that Mrs. Rong accepted it, the eldest princess smiled very happily: "Auntie, then I'll go see Sister Xuan, I haven't seen my sister for a long time, and I want to talk to my sister!" ”
Mrs. Rong smiled and ordered: "Liu Yan, you accompany Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine to Xuan's girl!" ”
Liu Yan accompanied the eldest princess, Mrs. Rong looked at the small box in her hand and was very helpless, and the maid behind hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up.
"Yo, ma'am, it's quite heavy!"
Mrs. Rong was even more helpless when she heard this, she hoped that this box would be lighter, the lighter the better.
Returning to the main room with the maids, Mrs. Rong lightly ordered: "Open it and take a look!" ”
The maid immediately put the box on the soft collapse and opened it, and the jewels came into view, and the maid was directly stunned, because the jewelry in it was too dazzling.
Mrs. Rong also saw the contents of the box at a glance, all of which were very expensive jewelry, and they were not ordinary precious.
Mrs. Rong, who already had a headache, felt that her head hurt even more, not only was she not half happy, but she felt very embarrassed.
Generally, even relatives and friends rarely send such valuable jewelry to add boxes, not to mention that whether it is from the eldest princess's maiden family or from the eldest prince's mansion, it is not the relatives and friends of Rongfu.
Even Xiaoxiao and Lin Lan, who are like sisters to Rong Xuan, would not give such a big gift, let alone the eldest princess who is a friend of all kinds!
This kind of jewelry is very rare even in Rong Fuzhong, not because the house can't afford it, but because such jewelry is too flamboyant.
