Bai Suxin has always liked fresh and elegant clothes, and there is nothing to refuse at this time.

"Okay, then Lile will help me choose the style and fabric."

The lord of Lile carefully selected several fabrics, and explained a few words to the tailors.

After the tailor measured Bai Suxin's size, he retreated.

Lord Lile sat comfortably on the stone bench in the courtyard.

"Sister Bai, what kind of congratulatory gift do you plan to give at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet?"

Bai Suxin's eyes shrank, and he was stunned: "I don't know!" ”

She really doesn't know what kind of gift she gives, she has never been very good at it.

Lord Lile pondered for a moment, "I remember that last year, Sister Bai gave the Queen Mother two green ruyi, although it was not rude, but it was a bit too ordinary. ”

She saw that last year, other noble girls were summoned by the Queen Mother, and they squeezed their heads and wanted to send something different.

But only Sister Bai actually gave two ordinary green Ruyi.

Although the color is excellent, such a thing is really too inconspicuous.

Bai Suxin pretended not to see what the county lord of Lile meant, and said with a smile: "The painting that Lile gave me last year was quite popular with the Queen Mother. ”

"Sister Bai laughed, if it weren't for Brother Tuoba's face, how could Mr. Gu Zhi paint for me?"

She's just a county lord with a different surname who doesn't have much power, if it weren't for the Tuoba family, who would give her face?

Bai Suxin didn't answer the words of the county lord of Lile, but said thoughtfully: "Actually, the Queen Mother may not like Mr. Gu Zhi very much, she should just miss her past life in the northwest." ”

It is difficult for her to speculate on the thoughts of the Queen Mother, but anyone who knows a little about the Queen Mother Tong knows that she misses the life in the northwest.

"But even if the Queen Mother misses it again, it is impossible for her to return to the northwest."

Now that she is the queen mother of a country, how can she live a free life in the northwest like she did at the beginning?

"Does Lile like the Northwest?" Bai Suxin asked instead.

The county lord of Lile said without hesitation: "Of course, the northwest does not have so many rules like Changjing, and you can live unrestrained. ”

Speaking of the northwest, there was a little more soft light in the eyes of the county lord of Lile.

Not to mention the Queen Mother, even she misses the days in the northwest very much.

No matter how lively the capital is, it will never be able to replace the northwest in her heart.

The county lord of Lile glanced at Bai Suxin quite sympathetically, "Sister Bai has lived in the capital since she was a child, I'm afraid she hasn't felt like this." ”

Bai Suxin pursed her lips and smiled faintly, "I understand what you mean." ”

Lord Lile was a little surprised, "You understand? ”

"When my father was demoted, our family lived in Liangzhou for three years. The atmosphere of Liangzhou is more comfortable than that of the capital. ”

"yes."

The two of them were so immersed in their own thoughts that they forgot to speak for a while.

After Bai Suxin came back to his senses, he asked, "What does Lile want to send the Queen Mother this time?" ”

Lord Lile lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "I don't know, I thought I wouldn't be in the capital this year last year, and I didn't think that I would be there this year." I haven't seen what kind of good things the Queen Mother has, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to give anything. ”

Not to mention Lile, other noblewomen in the capital who received the Queen Mother's invitation were also anxious about this.

"Lile is even worried about this?" Bai Suxin asked in surprise.

Previously, she had always thought that the Lord of Lile and the Empress Dowager Tong were familiar, and she would not bother with this kind of occasion.

Isn't it?

The county lord of Lile nodded as a matter of course, "Of course, even if I am the county lord, I am not the kind that grew up next to the queen mother." Although I am still familiar with the Queen Mother, I don't dare to be rude in front of the Queen Mother. ”

"What I'm saying is that the matter of preparing a congratulatory gift will be left to your brother Tuoba to think about."

Lord Lile secretly pursed his lips and smiled, "Sister Bai, you are really a good idea. ”

Tuoba Yi on the other side has indeed arranged the congratulatory gifts they need to bring when they enter the palace.

Tuoba Yi prepared two ink danqing for the lord of Lile, both of which were made by Mr. Gu Zhi.

What was prepared for Bai Suxin was two pieces of cloth with Su embroidery, plus two Changbai Mountain ginseng.

After the county lord of Lile learned the content of the gift, he couldn't help but pout.

"Brother Tuoba is eccentric, why is Sister Bai's gift better than mine?"

Tuoba Yi hooked his lips and smiled, looked at Bai Suxin and said: "Actually, the gift is not about what is valuable, but about the heart of the person who gave the gift, and whether it is to his liking." ”

Bai Suxin understood that she knew before that Empress Dowager Tong had always been interested in Jiangnan embroidery.

As for the ginseng of Changbai Mountain, Bai Suxin was a little incomprehensible.

"This ginseng ......," Bai Suxin asked hesitantly.

"I picked it myself." Tuoba Yi hooked his lips and smiled.

"No wonder, now I understand." Bai Suxin smiled back.

The county lord of Lile felt even more aggrieved, "Brother Tuoba, you should have prepared anything else for me, right?" ”

It can't really be just two danqing, right?

Although Mr. Gu Zhi's paintings are rare, she has already sent them last year.

Even if the Queen Mother likes it, she can't do it every year.

Tuoba Yi said lightly: "No." ”

The county lord of Lile instantly felt like he had been unloaded and killed a donkey.

At the beginning, when Brother Tuoba hadn't married Sister Bai into the door, she helped Brother Tuoba do a lot.

Now that Sister Bai is married, does Brother Tuoba plan to perfunctory her in the future?

"Brother Tuoba, you can't do this." Lord Lile was on the verge of crying.

Tuoba Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Danqing, you don't like it? ”

Lord Lile smiled at the time, "I knew that Brother Tuoba wouldn't leave me alone. ”

Tuoba Yi continued: "If you don't like it, then find a way to prepare a gift yourself. ”

Lord Lile was stunned for a moment, and was instantly dumbfounded.

She simply lost her wife and soldiers.

At this time, I can only nod my head.

"If you like it, how can you not like it?"

Bai Suxin silently watched the reactions of the two, and found it even more interesting.

However, Tuoba Yi was also a little puzzled as to why he suddenly treated Lord Lile like this.

"By the way, Xue Rui went back to the northwest some time ago, you can ask him if there is anything special." Tuoba Yi seems to mention it casually.

Bai Suxin instantly understood, it turned out that Tuoba Yi wanted to match the two.

Lord Lile felt that his cheeks were hot, and he changed the subject: "I heard that Sister Bai can make kites?" I don't know if I'm lucky enough to see Sister Bai's craftsmanship. ”

Before Bai Suxin could speak, Tuoba Yi suddenly had a cold face and said, "Lile, you should go." ”

Lord Lile: "......"

Brother Tuoba unloading the mill and killing the donkey is not too obvious, okay?
