Chapter 225, can be big or small
Zheng Jiao saw that Zeng Rong was so eager, it could be seen that she really wanted to go back to see her sister, and she didn't come to her to talk to her, so she wiped her tears and said, "I can't do it tomorrow, I heard that it will take three days, besides, this matter has to be approved by the Queen Mother." ”
"The Queen Mother agrees? Something to do with the Queen Mother? Zeng Rong instinctively thought of Zhu Heng, but she couldn't ask directly.
"Don't ask me about this, what exactly your Aunt Cui will tell you, I can only say that tomorrow shouldn't affect your home." After speaking, Zheng Jiao suddenly remembered something, "By the way, isn't your hometown from the south, how can there be a sister in the capital?" ”
"I have a younger sister who went to Beijing with me in the old years, and now she is fostered in a fellow villager." Zeng Rong replied absentmindedly.
"Only entered Beijing in the old year? Your accent changed so quickly that I could barely make out your original accent. Zheng Jiao was a little surprised again.
I don't know why, she always feels that there are too many mysteries in Zeng Rong, a little girl from the countryside, who has just entered the capital for a year, actually walked from a little embroidery girl to the emperor's side, and it also attracted the emperor's attention and favor.
That's it, the most incomprehensible thing for her is where Zeng Rong's talent comes from, and the accent is also, like her, she usually started studying at the age of five or six, and the financial resources and energy spent during this period are by no means affordable by a rural family like Zeng Rong.
And what made her even more sick was that what she had spent ten years learning carefully was not as good as what Zeng Rong had gained in a few years.
Therefore, she has always wanted to get close to Zeng Rong, and wanted to understand what is different from this girl, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles, although the two are currently belonging to different types of work, but she has a hunch that Zeng Rong's existence will definitely affect her.
Zheng Jiao's words made Zeng Rong wake up, and he smiled busily: "This, I learned it from Sister Amei, I was with them as soon as I entered the embroidery workshop, and for more than half a year, my accent had already been abducted by them." ”
"Really? Or are you smart, I've been studying for more than a year, and that's it, and I have a lot of hometown accents. To tell you the truth, in those days when I was in Fanghua Palace, I didn't understand what the palace chief mother said, and they didn't understand much about what I said, so I was trained a lot. Zheng Jiao stuck out her tongue and smiled after speaking.
"You mean if it weren't for this accent, you might have been chosen?" Zeng Rong quipped.
"What? I don't mean that, it's pretty good, I don't have to intrigue, just do my part, maybe in a few years, I can really go home to serve my parents, Amitabha, and I will be content. ”
Zeng Rong leaned over when he heard this, and looked at Zheng Jiao's face carefully, Zheng Jiao was looked at by her and pushed her away, "Why are you staring at me like this?" ”
"Because you are good-looking, tsk, from your face, I learned two words, one is called blowing bombs can be broken, and the other is called skin like clotted fat, such a good foundation, don't be violent and ruined, you can rest assured...
Zeng Rong didn't finish the next words, he was chased and beaten by Zheng Jiao, and the two of them chased me in the house for a while, Zheng Jiao was physically exhausted and defeated.
"Okay, I won't mess with you anymore, Sister Zheng will be in a better mood, right? If you feel homesick in the future, just come to me and I'll help you out. After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he picked up his clothes and left.
She didn't believe that the other party would really be like water, circling around the emperor all day long, even if she had no ideas, it didn't mean that the emperor had no ideas, the main thing was that Zheng Jiao's delicate and soft aura was really too similar to the imperial concubine, it was definitely better than the blue, and Zheng Jiao had two advantages that the imperial concubine could not match, one was young; The second is that this kind of delicateness comes with her bones, she is a Yuhang person, Wu Nong's soft language has been cultivated for thousands of years, can it be compared to a Handan toddler for decades?
Of course, Zeng Rong also believes that it is almost impossible for Zheng Jiao to replace the position of the imperial concubine in the emperor's heart, and the kind of emotion that has been accompanied since childhood has long been elevated to family affection, and family affection can be easily replaced?
It's strange to say, it is said that there is little true love in the emperor's house, and the combination of the vast majority of emperors and concubines is the result of Lan Yin, two people who love each other become strangers when they walk, and even become enemies, to guard against each other and hurt each other, but this emperor alone is a lover, and he has been inseparable from the woman of the imperial concubine for so many years, and finally when he is dying, he has to send his two sons to that position, even if he does not hesitate to bear the infamy of the world.
Therefore, Zeng Rong does not think that anyone can replace the imperial concubine, but this does not mean that the emperor does not like to try new things, otherwise, there will be no other children born in the harem, it is reported that three more concubines are pregnant, and it is difficult to predict whether Zeng Rong can give birth safely.
Returning to her room from Zheng Jiao, Zeng Rong washed up briefly, lit two lamps, and began to study the purse in her hand, so far she still hasn't figured it out, this purse is obviously a New Year's gift from her to Qin Chuxue, why did Qin Chuxue transfer it to Zhu Heng?
Even if the purse is embroidered with a rabbit, it can represent Zeng Rong's mind, and besides, there is no reason to give other women's embroidered purses to foreign men.
Thinking of giving and receiving it privately, Zeng Rong had the intention to leave this purse, but after thinking about it, Zhu Heng didn't find out that this purse was Zeng Rong's, he only emphasized that it was given to him by Aunt Qin, so Zeng Rong had no reason to detain it.
Fortunately, she is an embroiderer, and most of the purses she embroiders are sold as commodities, so she can barely prevaricate.
Because Zeng Rong embroidered two rabbits walking on the ground, pure white, the color of the purse is jujube red, and a few drops of ink stained on it are large and small, Zeng Rong thought for a while before deciding to embroider two bamboos, and these drops of ink became small insects attached to bamboo poles or bamboo leaves.
After setting the pattern, Zeng Rong did not rush to embroider, but spread out the paper and pen, during this time she was busy with the assessment, and promised to give Yu Yunqing every month The draft has not been completed, only to see this picture of a rabbit under Takeshita, she suddenly had inspiration.
But this time Zeng Rong painted not a rabbit, she remembered a painting she saw in the study of the Xu family in the previous life, painting a black and white animal, like a bear is not a bear, like a cat is not a cat, Xu Jing said, this is the legendary Pixiu in ancient times, also called bamboo bear, living on bamboo.
Although this animal is relatively large, it does not look fierce at all, but it is cute and cute, and Pixiu is a mascot and gathers wealth, so Zeng Rong guessed that this animal should be sought after as an embroidery.
