Chapter 417: Pear Tree
After waiting for the middle time, as the congratulatory gifts from various provinces were delivered one after another, the front of Mengdiezhuang gradually became lively.
In order to maintain the mystery, Song Yi still did not remove the fence. Until the last moment, when it was unveiled, the new look of Mengdiezhuang was displayed in front of everyone.
"Xiao Hei, the nearby streets have already been arranged, right?" Song Yi asked.
For this day, Song Yi was already cheeky and distributed invitations to various provinces in advance.
The people who promised to come were all invited by Song Yi in person, and even if they didn't come, they also let the people in the house prepare generous gifts. Song Yi had already seen the gifts gradually piling up in the house.
The flower baskets and banners at the door were prepared by Song Yi in advance to tell those guests. Since it has reopened, of course, it has to be lively.
"Princess, don't worry. The subordinates have already informed the Jingzhao Mansion Yin in advance and asked the officials to stand guard at various intersections, and there will be no idle people and other troubles."
"Well, that's good. Today's guests are all VIPs, so there can't be any accidents," Song Yi said nervously.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here" Zhu Xi obviously noticed Song Yi's nervousness, so he said.
Of course, Song Yi was nervous, although she was very confident that Mengdiezhuang would become the most unique store in this era, but whether such a unique design would be accepted by the ancients was something that Song Yi was not sure about.
At another time, reality is always crueler than imagined. No matter how cool and high-tech it is, if it is not accepted, it is just some unrecognized and ineffective innovation.
In the final analysis, Song Yi didn't open another science museum, she wanted to make money, of course, she hoped that the guests who saw Mengdiezhuang would feel at home, so that they could come in to consume, right?
"I know. When it officially starts, I'll be fine. Song Yi said.
"I see that the guests are coming one after another, let's not stay downstairs, let's go up to greet the guests first" said, Zhenwang took Song Yi up to the second floor, a private room specially prepared for the guests attending the opening ceremony.
Inside the Princess's Mansion.
"County Lord, do you really want to go?" Ziwei asked.
"What's wrong? Can't I go? Lord Wencheng asked rhetorically.
"That's not what the slave meant. It's just that you haven't been good friends with the real princess in the past. The slave thinks you're just talking," Ziwei said embarrassedly.
"People change. As the saying goes, there are no permanent friends, and there are no permanent enemies. Besides, her real princess has sent someone to send invitations, how can I not give her face? Lord Wencheng said with a smile.
"The gift I asked you to prepare, are you ready?" Lord Wencheng asked.
"The slave has already been prepared, and she has already let the butler put it in the carriage," Ziwei replied.
"It's not too early, let's go," said Lord Wencheng.
On the other side, in the palace of the three princes.
"Princess, are you really going?" Anna said with some embarrassment.
I don't know where the princess heard that the real princess opened a ready-to-wear shop in Kyoto, and today is the opening day.
Anna knew about the princess's past with the real princess, so when she heard the princess say that she was going to "congratulate", she knew that something was wrong.
Since the incident in the Huibin Building, the third prince has complained about the princess, although he did not punish the princess for that incident, but Anna knew that the third prince did not want to be punished, but because he was afraid of the Siamese country behind the princess. Seek the magic TXT
Anna saw that she was anxious in her eyes, and how she hoped that the princess would also wake up and understand that her current identity was not the princess Paula who was favored by the king and queen of Siam, but the imperial concubine who had married into the royal family of the Qiantian Dynasty and gave birth to a small princess for the third prince.
The princess is going to go to the princess to congratulate the real princess? How could Anna believe it. She knew that if she really let the princess go, it would only make the scene embarrassing.
This time is not like the last time, although the Huibin Building is a restaurant, but the box on the second floor has been emptied at that time, so not many people know what happened.
If something bad happens in front of the public today, or the princess says something irreparable in front of everyone, it will really be over.
Anna can only stop it desperately now, hoping to make the master discourage the idea of leaving the mansion.
The Three Princes' Mansion in the Pear Fragrance Garden.
"Princess, I just got the news that I'm going out over there," Fluttershy says excitedly.
"Hmm," the third imperial concubine Du Shuyin nodded and said.
"Imperial Princess, are we going to leave too?" Fluttershy asks as she looks at her master sitting upright, not trying to leave.
"There's no hurry, anyway, it's just to congratulate, it's not too late" Du Shuyin held the teacup and tasted the tea unhurriedly.
At this moment, a noisy sound came from the courtyard, and Du Shuyin frowned with a displeased face.
Fluttershy frowns at her master's frown, and quickly goes outside to inquire.
When Fluttershy returns, Du Shuyin asks, "What's going on in the yard?" ”
"Imperial Princess, it was the third prince who asked the third prince to clean up the pear trees in the courtyard. Some time ago, didn't it rain a few times and broke the branches? ”
"Oh" Du Shuyin heard that the third prince had arranged for someone to prune, so he didn't say anything.
Fluttershy thinks the master is in a bad mood and quickly says, "Princess, you just mentioned it casually in front of the three princes last time, and the pear tree in the courtyard broke, so the three princes took it seriously and immediately arranged for someone to come over." It can be seen how much the third prince values the imperial concubine in his heart."
Fluttershy tries to please her master, but apparently doesn't get a positive response.
Du Shuyin walked to the window and watched the gardener in the courtyard pruning the pear tree. Kyoto pear trees bloom in March and April and bear fruit in May and June. It's August now, and there's no fruit for a long time.
Because Du Shuyin likes pear blossoms, when he was in the boudoir, he also called the name of the boudoir Lixiangyuan. When she married into the Three Princes' Mansion, because there were these pear trees in the courtyard, she changed her original name to Pear Fragrance Garden.
She knew that the pear tree in the courtyard was specially transplanted by the third prince, and she was still a little moved, but later, when she saw that there were more and more women in the mansion and the third prince's face became clearer and clearer, Du Shuyin had already given up her illusions about men.
Because she knew that for a man who was in pursuit of power, women were nothing more than tools he could use. And spending time fiddling with their tools is just to make them obedient.
When Du Shuyin saw these things clearly, although she couldn't resist, it didn't mean that she didn't have an attitude. When she saw these pear trees again, she was no longer moved, only disgusted.
However, she also learned to keep these negative emotions in her heart and not let everyone see them. A few days ago, she just casually said a sentence in front of the man.
Unexpectedly, he really asked people to repair it. However, the branches of the pear tree have long been cleaned up by the people in the yard. His actions were completely redundant.
Du Shuyin sneered, "These pear trees are really troublesome, not to mention mosquitoes in summer, when it is windy and rainy, it will be full of fallen leaves and broken branches, let people cut it down next year."
I don't know why her master suddenly wants to cut down a tree, which scares Fluttershy so much that she doesn't speak.
