Chapter 441: Receiving Gifts
As long as the eldest princess nodded, Qin Yao was justified.
"I'm tired, go back and tell the sixth lady, I will accept the invitation, and I must go to participate on that day. Moreover, the eldest princess will also go, and the sixth lady is worried about it. "Qin Yao is very happy, it is naturally fun to be able to go out and play, as for whether she will meet Mrs. Meng again, haha, thinking of Mrs. Meng bullying her for not understanding things, Qin Yao suddenly looked forward to meeting Mrs. Meng, anyway, she already knew where Mrs. Meng's shortcomings were.
The little guy is also full of smiles, this time the invitation is worth it, originally he was just running errands, just make sure that the invitation arrives, and now he can also invite the eldest princess, the little guy knows the heart of his master and the sixth lady, The more VIPs and guests like this, the happier the sixth lady is.
"Yes, yes, the second princess, I'll go back and talk back to our sixth lady." The little maid was happy, "Also, this gift, our sixth lady said, the first time I came to the Great Prince's Mansion and met the eldest princess, the number of etiquette should be done, so the little one brought two gifts, which was to honor the two princesses." As he spoke, the little guy handed over the box he had been holding in his hand.
Two brocade boxes, one large and one small, one dark purple and one dark garnet red, the eldest princess and Qin Yao looked at each other, Gu Ya and Su He stepped forward to pick it up, the little guy handed the big box to Gu Ya, and the small box to Su He.
"This is for the second princess, it is the same texture as the hairpin that the second prince made for the second princess before, and the earrings of more than two hibiscus flowers are made, which just match your head flower." The little guy said to Qin Yao.
Qin Yao listened, opened the box in his hand and saw that it was indeed two hibiscus flower-shaped earrings, which were very consistent with the hairpin style he had received before.
The eldest princess looked at the box in Qin Yao's hand, and opened her own curiously, and there was actually a string of garnet-based multi-treasure bracelets inside.
"The gift of the princess is chosen by our six ladies, saying that it means a lot of blessings, our lady said that the first time to meet the princess, I don't know how to choose what to give, this hand is at the beginning of the year when we spent a lot of money to invite the master to build, the sixth lady said early in the morning, the hand is suitable for the princess, the craftsmanship is good and the materials are also exquisite." The little guy hurriedly introduced it to the eldest princess.
The eldest princess picked up the bracelet and looked at the light, the main stone of the bracelet was a fine purple tooth black, which was inlaid with green pine, amethyst, silk agate, clams, beeswax, and was separated by small beads carved with golden lotus.
Looking at the expression of the eldest princess, Qin Yao knew that this gift was sent to the eldest princess's heart.
"Then you thank the sixth lady for us, and when it comes to the appointed day, we will definitely go to the meeting." Qin Yao directly took the lead to receive gifts for the eldest princess.
The little servant bowed and saluted, Gu Ya hurriedly called the little servant of the Great Prince's Mansion outside the living room to accompany him, and went out together.
"These six ladies are interesting, and sure enough, they are like those in the imperial city, and they are people who like to sprinkle gold to save face." The eldest princess said as she put the bracelet in the box and put it away.
Qin Yao was quick, lifted the bracelet from the box with two fingers, and then said to the eldest princess: "Sister-in-law, why do you want to put it away, I think it is best to wear this gift now." ”
"Why, this gift is not very valuable, just accept it and put it away, why do you want to wear it now?" The eldest princess asked rhetorically.
"The eldest sister-in-law knows that this garnet, especially this fine purple tooth black, is an excellent health object for women, and the little guy in front of me said that the sixth lady means that the meaning of hope is more blessings, in fact, the most important meaning of garnet is to have many sons and many blessings." Qin Yao explained to the eldest princess.
"Could it be, these six ladies are a little too bold." Gu Ya said with a frown next to him.
Qin Yao also thought of this, but he didn't dare to say it at first.
"Sister-in-law, since you have said this, the sixth lady's overture is very special, and the soldiers are dangerous." Qin Yao said.
The eldest princess Jiahui is not a girl from an ordinary family, as soon as Gu Ya said this to Qin Yao, the eldest princess also reacted a little.
"It's really dangerous." The eldest princess Jiahui whispered to herself.
"Actually, it's also a gesture of goodwill to you, sister-in-law, these six ladies know that if they do this, they may be misunderstood, but didn't the little girl say that the gift specially selected for you was already thought of giving to the eldest princess." Qin Yao reminded the eldest princess Jiahui to pay attention to the little girl's statement.
The topic is still going on here, Xu Rong is asking for peace at the door, and wants to ask Qin Yao for a pulse.
"You go first, let's discuss the rest later, Gu Ya, ask where the eldest prince is now, and send a letter to the eldest prince about the two of us going to the banquet." The eldest princess said.
"The eldest sister-in-law, wait for me to come back, to be honest, I still have something to tell the eldest sister-in-law." Qin Yao owed a blessing and left the living room first with Su He Min'er.
When Qin Yao walked away, the eldest princess raised her hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back first." ”
"These six ladies are also a little too presumptuous." Gu Ya said while helping the eldest princess up.
The eldest princess put the bracelet on her left hand, "These six ladies are not simple characters, the first invitation, and deliberately gave this gift, they are all singing monkeys, who can not know whose dress is not successful." ”
"Then you're not angry? Obviously, what kind of gift is this, I don't think she's at ease. Gu Ya asked.
"Who told the sixth lady that Qin Yao is in our house, it must be Ye Qinghong's little monkey, otherwise this news didn't let outsiders who didn't know about it send the invitation directly to the door so quickly? Ye Qinghong, this kid, is running around in the imperial city all day long, and the people he knows are three sects and nine streams, and Master Wan is also a well-known one among them. If it weren't for Ye Qinghong's news, would the sixth lady have come to the door so directly? The eldest princess walked as she looked at the light and admired the hand on her wrist.
"Ye Qinghong has been a shrewd person since he was a child, their brothers have a good relationship, and they won't play any tricks in this kind of thing of making friends in the market, since Ye Qinghong is so obviously going to push all the old men and all the mansions to us, let's go on." The eldest princess said.
"The slave maid thinks that depending on who she is, whether she is the lady who ranks sixth, or the eldest lady of Wanfu, she is just the wife of a businessman, or the concubine in the side room, there are five in front of her, and this woman is too bold." Gu Ya was still a little angry.
"How do you know she's bold, maybe she's showing favor. Where are the people who do business who are not shrewd, and before they meet, they offend me by giving a gift, so why give a gift? The eldest princess smiled at the corner of her mouth, "This sixth lady is really a character, and it is rumored from her mother's side that she is first-class in means, smart and bold, and has great ideas, it seems that it is true." ”
