At this moment, Yao'er had already run to Xinyue's side, "Sister-in-law, I called you from afar, and you shouldn't want me." ”

"I should be you, I should be you, you little fox Nizi, you really have a pointed nose, big ears and fast legs, I can only have good things and delicious food to send you, come, let's go in."

Yao'er happily followed Xinyue into the room, and Feng'er put the box she was holding in front of the table and served tea to the two.

"Feng'er, you bring the jerky you cooked yesterday and give it to Yao'er to taste." When Xinyue saw Yao'er coming in, her eyes lit up, looking around for what Xinyue said was delicious.

"Let's ask Miss Yao to take a look at the gift from the princess, and it doesn't take the slave to hold it all the way." When Feng'er saw Xinyue and saw the jewelry in this box, she also liked it very much, and Miss Yao was not very happy when she saw it.

"Hao'er, you really don't know Miss Ben, Miss Ben and I, this gold and silver thing of Raushzi, in my makeup box, on the dowry list, there are not a hundred, but also ninety, I have eight heads, and I can't wear them. But you, Miss Feng'er, cook as much jerky as you cook, I can eat as much as you want, you just cook a whole cow to make jerky, and I can eat it. Yao'er clicked the box with her hand, but she didn't feel like it was enjoyable, so she clicked a few more times.

Xinyue hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Girl, this is about to get married, shallot-like hands, jade-like nails, when you get married, you dye your fingers red with impatiens water, add joy, if it is broken, it will be unlucky." ”

"Yes, Yao'er knows, Miss Feng'er, hurry up and get your delicious jerky." With that, Yao'er stood up and pushed Feng'er all the way out of the house.

After Feng'er walked out, Xinyue walked to the desk in a few steps and took out the dowry list that Yao'er had been promoting.

"Sister-in-law, this list has been drafted since the time when my mother was there, and now I am all married soon, sister-in-law, you haven't finished drafting yet? I don't know, I thought that my sister-in-law was going to bring all the gold and silver treasures of the entire Yuwang Mansion to Yao'er. Yao'er said this, but it reminded Xinyue of her childhood.

"I, Shan'er and you, when the three of us were young, my aunt was like this, what good rewards we received, what good things she had, all like this, one by one on the dowry list of you and me, you two forget it, I, not my aunt's child, but also got her share, now, I also want to repay my aunt's kindness, Shan'er's list, is my aunt's list, your this, my aunt has drawn up half of it, I will definitely add more for you. Take a look, this set of heads and faces was rewarded by Princess Yu, and I haven't seen a few of the jewels in this crown in the palace. Yao'er, we women, unlike their men, can make meritorious achievements, as women, all we want is to be in harmony with our husbands and prosperity. But it is not okay to blindly rely on the children and grandchildren of the husband, you must have your own confidence, otherwise if the mother's family changes, the husband's family is different, and you will not be helpless. My aunt taught you very well, and the rest of the things, my sister-in-law has never experienced it, and she is still trapped in the fog, and she doesn't know where to go, so she can't teach you, you need to go through it step by step, and you can only be regarded as having lived your life. ”

"Sister-in-law, in the end, when will I be able to eat the jerky of the jerky", I think my aunt will tell her less, and now she is talking about it, which will make her feel verbose, at this time the jerky, Yao'er finally came out with the jerky, Yao'er was happy, and before the jerky was put on the table, she had already stretched out her hand to grab it, the new moon did not stop her, and at the same time, her heart was also surging, Yao'er with such a temperament, what happened to her, and it became the way she looked in her dream.

The dried meat is salty and fragrant, Yao'er loves to eat it, and handed it to Xinyue, Xinyue shook her head, "I'm not hungry yet, let's eat"

After Yao'er left, Xinyue walked in the courtyard of King Yu, and was too tired to support, lying on the edge of the couch, and instructed Hao'er to "go and hand over your head to Mama Li beside Yao'er, and let her put it away." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a maidservant girl outside the door reported, "Madam, the two ladies of the second and third rooms are here." ”

"Let them in." The new moon, who had not had a moment of rest, could only get up, and as soon as she stood in the vestibule, the two ladies walked in together, "Say hello to the two aunts." ”

The two people who came, one is the second son of King Yu, the wife of Bai, who is of the same clan as Xinyue's grandmother, and the other is the third son of King Yu, Xu, who is the deputy general of King Yu, and the current Wanzhou guard, An Chengbo, the only daughter of General Xu.

"Don't be polite" Although Bai and Xinyue are relatives, the two are not close, polite, and even outward.

"The two aunts sit down, and Cui'er serves tea." As soon as the two aunts sat down, Cui'er came in with a tea tray and served tea to the three of them.

After sitting down and drinking a round of tea, Xinyue said, "I was about to visit the two aunts after lunch, and the aunts came." ”

"Because of tomorrow's events, it doesn't matter who comes to whom." Xu is the queen of the gate, although in the past few years, because of the death of his son, he has been deeply hit, but he still maintains a bit of true temperament, and then look at Bai Shi, who has also experienced the pain of losing a child, in the final analysis, the two are also poor women.

"Yao'er's dowry will be loaded on the ship tomorrow, and the nephew and daughter-in-law have a wound on the head, and Lang Zhong has instructed not to see the wind, but Yao'er's dowry, the nephew and daughter-in-law have already passed one by one. Tomorrow, the two aunts will have to work hard, and together with Mama Li and Mama Da, they will check and load them on the boat. With that, Crescent stood up and bowed to the two of them.

"It's all your own business, you don't have to be so polite." Bai Shi helped the new moon up and let her continue to sit in her original position, "I heard..."

Xinyue looked at Bai Shi pulling a long voice, wanting to ask but not asking clearly, so she had to smile back, "Auntie, please speak." ”

"Aunts, I heard from the people around the prince that you want to reconcile with Xi'er?" Xu couldn't wait, so he asked directly.

"Yes, two aunts," Crescent replied with a smile.

"You can still laugh, you make such a scene, not only will Xi'er dislike you even more, but if it is spread out, it will have a bad impact on the daughters in the family. Seeing that Yao'er's wedding is imminent, you don't have to worry, but there is still Mei'er in your aunt's family, and Xuan'er and Lang'er in your third uncle and third aunt's family, what should you do if you have a daughter? ”

After hearing Bai's words, Xinyue asked with some doubts, "Auntie is saying that the nephew and daughter-in-law are making such a fuss because they want to be cherished and loved by the little prince?" ”

"Or else?" Bai Shi looked at Xinyue's contemptuous appearance, and immediately became angry, "You don't care so much, do you really not take the other sisters in the family seriously?" ”

"Aunts, I discussed with the prince and the little prince, and I originally planned to wait for Yao'er's marriage, and then talk about this unrelated matter. The two aunts don't have to worry, the most important thing now is Yao'er's marriage. Xinyue thought about it, if this matter was clarified at this time, these two would definitely put pressure on themselves because of their respective daughters' affairs, and they would not do their best to care about Yao'er's marriage.

They came today, it is nothing more than to put pressure on themselves for King Yu, otherwise the Xu family said just now that it was "the people around the prince" who revealed this matter, and the people around King Yu, except for the grandmother Da Mama, there are almost no servants to serve.

The people who are close are also the attendants who have been fighting with him for many years and have been born and died. The skin of the mouth should be harder than the knife, if it wasn't for the instructions of King Yu, how could he chew the root of his tongue with the two women in the courtyard of the deep house.

"The affairs of the two of you, we, as aunts, should not have been involved. But if the noise is too much, it will also hinder the face of our entire Yuwang Mansion, although this is the eastern capital, it is the accompanying capital of our dynasty, and it is not as good as the gathering of dignitaries and dignitaries in Jinling, but there are also princes and nobles like us who live here for generations. Let's not spread any discord. Xu's words were much more heart-wrenching than what the elders of the same clan of the Bai clan said.

"Yes," Crescent Moon looked deferential, stood up and bowed.

"Since it's a matter of the two of you, let's deal with it in this courtyard, Xiaolin, let's go." Xinyue heard Bai's call Xu's maiden name, and it seems that the relationship between the two is very good.

"Yes, second sister-in-law." As he spoke, the two of them left under the eyes of the new moon, and as soon as they reached the door, the new moon waved his hand angrily and threw the cups on the table to the ground.

When Feng'er came in, she saw that Xinyue was losing her temper, and she threw all the teacups on the table on the ground, and was lying on the table at this time, panting.

Feng'er immediately hugged Xinyue, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

"They really deceive people too much, deceive people too much." Saying that, Xinyue still wanted to drop something, but at this time she really calmed down, she originally still had the illusion of being able to get together and disperse, so it seems that she is really too naïve.

"Madam, be careful of your wounds." As he spoke, Feng'er helped Xinyue and sat down together where Xinyue was sitting just now, "Madam, there is a letter from Master Hou." ”

Xinyue stabilized her mind and took the letter from her brother Xu Xinkang from Jinling.

After opening the letter, Xinyue glanced at Feng'er and said, "Hao'er, I ordered you in the morning, you make a list as soon as possible, the day of leaving Jinling is near, I originally planned to finish Yao'er's affairs and go back here, but now I see, I will never come to this place again, my aunt is right, this is a man-eating hole." ”

"Yes" Feng'er didn't ask much, Xinyue always has such a character, if she doesn't want to say something, even if Your Majesty comes, she can't pry her mouth open.

After dinner, Feng'er took the rough list and handed it to Xinyue, "Madam, this is a list drawn up by the slave maid, you can take a look at it first." ”

"You find two little maids, and bring me the east warehouse, the boxes of leather goods and silk, and I will tidy them up, and give them to them with the help of the two aunts this time." With that, Crescent Moon put down the pen in her hand, stood up from the desk in the study, and turned around and entered the inner room.

After a while, the new moon heard the sound of a small girl talking outside, and the sound of moving boxes, and after a while, the new moon came out, looking at the seven or eight boxes piled up in the outer room, and gave Feng'er a look.

Feng'er took out a few silver leaves and rewarded them to the two little guys, and the little guys got the reward and went out happily.

"Fei'er" Crescent Moon raised her voice, Fei'er got her voice, and immediately came in "Madame"

"You open these boxes one by one, bring a few small boxes, and finally bring my green sycamore makeup box."

"Yes" Fei'er returned from the new moon today, and waited outside for a whole day, this was the first time the new moon had told her to do something.

Crescent Moon watched her trotting for a while, doing what she commanded, and couldn't help but ask her, "Are you happy?" ”

"This is the first time that Madame has instructed a slave to do something since breakfast." Saying that, Fei'er didn't dare to open all the boxes lazy, and from the inner room, she took out the makeup box of the new moon like a treasure, put it in Xinyue's hand, and took advantage of the empty space to get the small box, and served a cup of tea to the new moon.

The new moon let out a sigh of relief in her stomach, and reached out to hold the bandage on her forehead, saying that the slave had been used for a long time, because there was a lot of work done every day, and it was all resentful in his heart, so he either used gold and silver to win him over, or rewarded him with favors, but it was the first time he saw it, because he had done less work, and he was uncomfortable.

Xinyue stretched out her hand and called the makeup box on the left hand, in this box, all the jewelry that Xinyue wore before she got married, Xinyue took out three bracelets from it, put them in her palm, and asked Fei'er to come over.

"What else does Madame have to command?" Fei'er had calmed down at this time, and placed the small box that Xinyue had asked for on the table.

"Look at these three bracelets." Xinyue handed over three bracelets, opened two small wooden boxes, and said to Fei'er, "In one box, put one bracelet, and the rest will be given to you." ”

"Madam, the slave is ashamed." Saying that, Fei'er wanted to kneel, but she was afraid of damaging the bracelet in her hand, so she had to restrain herself, not knowing what to do.

"You've been here for a while, and I've never rewarded you with anything, so pick one." Xinyue picked out two bead hairpins from the box again, one on the left and one on the right, and put them in the box, "The two wooden boxes you are looking for are just the right size." ”

"Madam, the slave deserves it."

"White jade, red stone, jadeite, these three bracelets, I think the jade one is very suitable for Sister Fei'er." Feng'er finally came in from outside, and Fei'er realized that Feng'er, who had been inseparable from the new moon, had only come over for a long time.

"Well, your name is also Fei'er." Xinyue took the list she had just copied from Feng'er's hand and looked at it carefully.

"Fei'er, the jade of this bracelet, although it is not a jade head, but it is not something that can be bought casually outside, take it quickly, these three bracelets, this one is the most expensive." In the last sentence, Feng'er deliberately lowered her voice, and Xinyue raised her eyes to look at the two people who were whispering, and said, "There is still a lot of work to do, and you two stand aside to block the candlelight on my left." ”

"Yes" Fei'er saw that Xinyue had other instructions, and immediately put the white jade one on the left and the red stone one on the right, and the new moon closed the box with her hand, and said to Fei'er, "Tomorrow, when the two aunts come back, take these two boxes and two horses..."

"Madam, the slave maid thinks these two satins are good, Mrs. Bai likes this kind of satin cloth with blue patterns, and Mrs. Xu likes cloud brocade, the fourth son is thirteen years old this year, and it is also very suitable to use this kind of cloud brocade cloth as an outerwear." Fei'er continued to give full play to her advantages in this mansion, raised by her grandmother, and knew the people in the mansion very well.

Xinyue looked at the cloth satin carefully and nodded, "It's good." ”

"And the slave put them away together?" Fei'er tried to ask.

Xinyue shook her head, "These two pieces of fabric, although they are very suitable for the two ladies, but the price of Yunjin is expensive, and the price of one horse is higher than the value of this box of silk. ”

"Then this fan is mixed with mulberry linen silk, and the price of satin is no different, although there is one less, but it is relatively rare, and it is suitable." As she spoke, Fei'er took out a mulberry silk from a mahogany box with great effort and handed it to Xinyue.

"Yes, this is a silk cloth with mulberry silk, which is ventilated and breathable. And the fourth son is the time to love naughty, in the summer, this kind of silk cloth made of single clothes, cool and wear-resistant, made into riding and shooting clothes, the most suitable. "Feng'er is also full of praise for Fei'er's selection.

"Well, when the two aunts come back, Fei'er, you will send the gifts of satin cloth and red jade bracelets to Mrs. Bai, and the gifts of mulberry silk and white jade bracelets to Mrs. Xu. The ornaments in the box were given to the two young ladies, saying that they were my favorite things when I was young, and now they are given to the two younger sisters. ”

"Yes," she said, and Fei'er took the things prepared by the new moon and put them in the outer room, ready to send them over tomorrow as soon as the two ladies returned.
