Chapter 148, Sincerity
Although Qin Chuxue was dissatisfied with the arrival of the green lotus, because of Zeng Rong's relationship, she did not let her go, on the contrary, she asked her to go to the kang to watch Zeng Rong write.
After Zeng Rong finished writing these blessing words, Xiaocui served tea, brought a few melons and fruit snacks, Qin Chuxue sat down with him and said goodbye, leaned back on the futon, and listened to Zeng Rong and Luhe talk about the new things in the embroidery workshop, during which Amei's departure was inevitably mentioned.
Qin Chuxue had already heard about this from Liu Chunmiao and Liu Gonggong, and Liu Gonggong's statement was that the Queen Mother had taken a fancy to Amei's ingenuity and said that she wanted to borrow her for use in the past.
This is obviously a pretext, the basic needle of the Great New Year is not moved, what does the Queen Mother want an embroidery girl to do in the past?
Besides, if you talk about ingenuity, can there be anything better than Zeng Rong? Why did Zeng Rong not move at all, but the Queen Mother fell in love with Yu Mei alone?
The few things embroidered by Yu Mei after entering the palace were not brilliant at all, and they were not sent to the Queen Mother, how could the Queen Mother know about Yu Mei?
Although they knew that Liu An was making trouble here, Qin Chuxue and Liu Chunmiao couldn't say anything else.
"Aunt Qin, do you know why Amei Yin went to the Queen Mother's side?" Midori asked.
She once asked Zeng Rong this question, and Zeng Rong sent her four words "no comment", but she didn't expect her to give up, and came to ask Qin Chuxue again.
"Forgot the palace rules again?" Qin Chuxue glanced at her.
"Isn't this a small talk, that's it." Green Lotus accompanied a smile.
"Remember, what you should know will let you know, don't ask around if you shouldn't know, why don't you have a long memory?" Qin Chuxue scolded lightly.
Green Lotus didn't expect Qin Chuxue to turn her face when she said it, and she suddenly became a little embarrassed, wanting to explain a few words but not knowing what to say, her face was flushed.
Zeng Rong sighed, "Aunt Qin, let's go back, you haven't recovered yet, if you want to give birth to a good life, we won't bother." ”
Qin Chuxue looked at the sky outside and nodded, "It's okay, go back early, I won't send it, let Xiao Cui send it on your behalf." ”
Xiao Cui looked at Zeng Rong and almost opened her mouth, but when she saw the green lotus beside Zeng Rong, it was closed again, Zeng Rong saw this, took Xiao Cui's hand and shook it a few times, and the two smiled.
When I got out, Lu He was still a little sneering, "Aunt Qin and Sister Xiaocui are so good to you, I don't know what I did wrong and what I didn't get into their eyes." ”
"It's very simple, sincerity for sincerity, if you treat others sincerely, how can others dislike you?"
"Hmph, this may not be, I treat you sincerely, but you never have a heart to heart with me, you only listen to Amei, but what about Amei? Why don't you leave yourself alone and climb the high branches? You're stupid, no... ”
"Green Lotus, if you want to say that, let's go separately. You still don't know what you're doing wrong, how do I have a heart to heart with you, and why should I have a heart with you? Zeng Rong finished trotting a few steps, leaving Lu Lotus and walking forward alone.
Green Lotus looked at her back, bit her mouth, and finally ran a few steps forward to catch up with Zeng Rong, and stretched out her hand to hold her, "Okay, don't talk about this, I just ask you, who are you going to watch the fireworks with tomorrow night?" ”
"What fireworks?" Zeng Rong didn't know anything about it.
Seeing that Zeng Rong didn't seem to be lying, Green Lotus explained that fireworks would be set off in the back garden every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, and as long as the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were not on duty, they could go to watch together, but there was one point, they were not allowed to approach the Qin'an Hall, where the emperor and the princes and concubines stayed.
If there is a violation, the light one will be twenty boards, and the heavy one will be expelled from the palace.
This is a special case for Chinese New Year's Eve, and this is the only opportunity once a year to enter and exit the harem without tokens.
According to the green lotus, there is a special case is the lanterns and fireworks on the night of the Lantern Festival, the lanterns are placed on Chang'an Street, and the fireworks are in front of the noon gate.
As soon as he heard this, Zeng Rong remembered that it was a custom for the emperor to enjoy the lanterns and fireworks during the Lantern Festival, and at this time of the year, there were many people outside the palace who watched the fireworks outside the noon gate.
In this life, presumably Xu Jing will also take Zeng Hua with her, if she can leave the palace, in two hours, she can also go to Xu's house, accompany Ahua to eat a meal of rice balls, and accompany her to go shopping for a circle of lanterns, right?
"Sister Ah Rong, let's go watch the fireworks together tomorrow, okay?" Lu He asked, this was her purpose in holding Zeng Rong.
Since Zeng Rong said that she is sincere for sincere, she will show her sincerity for the time being, others are not clear, she knows very well, Amei's skills are all trained by Zeng Rong, reading and writing, reciting poems and reciting poems, and even the patterns of embroidery are also designed and matched by Zeng Rong, if there is no Zeng Rong's help, she will never be able to get close to the queen mother, even if she goes in, I am afraid that she is also a rough palace maid who sweeps the floor and waters the flowers.
But now it's different, Amei can be good at needlework, and can read and write a small account or something, the key is that Liu Gonggong is recommended, such a person will definitely be reused when he comes to the Queen Mother.
This is also an important reason why she has always been close to Zeng Rong, she also wants to learn something from Zeng Rong, not to be able to learn like Zeng Rong, but to have Amei's knowledge.
"It's not good, tomorrow's Chinese New Year's Eve, maybe Amei is not worth it, I'm afraid she will come to me." Zeng Rong directly rejected the green lotus.
Green Lotus bit her lip again, but she didn't stick it on her face again, after all, they are all girls, and they also need to be faced.
The next day, because it was Chinese New Year's Eve, I only worked for half a day, and after noon I began to sweep the house, bathe, change into new clothes, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was still set at the time of Shenshi, and there were about 200 people in the three workshops of weaving, embroidery, and tailoring, plus several aunts in charge came, and the meals were more sumptuous than usual, with four dishes, two meat and two vegetables.
After the meal, when everyone dispersed, Liu Chunmiao stopped Zeng Rong and asked Zeng Rong who he had asked to watch the fireworks, and asked Zeng Rong what he was going to do during the five-day vacation.
Knowing that Zeng Rong was waiting for Amei, Liu Chunmiao sighed for a while, "That's it, you come with me, tonight the emperor will take all the princes, princesses and concubines to have a reunion dinner in Cining Palace, Amei will definitely not be able to come out." ”
"Oh, what about me..." Zeng Rong wanted to say that she would not bother the other party if she looked for someone else, but before she could finish speaking, Liu Chunmiao interrupted her.
"Let's go, I have something for you." Liu Chunmiao didn't say a word, and pushed Zeng Rong to take two steps forward.
Liu Chunmiao took Zeng Rong back to her residence first, the sky was still bright at that time, and it was too early to see the fireworks, so Liu Chunmiao personally boiled water to make tea, waiting for the water to boil, Liu Chunmiao pulled out a package from the end of the kang, opened the package, and inside was a fox fur cloak, which was different from the one that Liu Chunmiao lent to Zeng Rong last time, this one was obviously much smaller, suitable for Zeng Rong's age and figure.
In other words, this cloak was deliberately given to her.
