Chapter 15: Pushing the Boat Down

"This ......" Chu Junlan lowered her head, her long crow green hair slid down on her shoulders with the movement of her head down, and she looked even more gentle and supple under the orange light, "Father's proposal is not impossible, it's just that the eldest princess's mansion is ......"

"You don't have to worry about this," Chu Cailiang said toughly, "Your aunt is just helping you manage those things, and our family is not such an insatiable family, can you still be greedy for the silver for Ye Gongzi's treatment and recuperation?" ”

Chu Junlan was secretly amused and nodded respectfully, "My daughter didn't mean that, so she followed what her father said." ”

"Okay, okay." Chu Cailiang was overjoyed, and his voice was raised a little, "I used to think you were good for my father, but now it seems that you do have the demeanor of a concubine, and in the future, our family will rely on you more, you are so good to treat Ye Gongzi, with the connections of the eldest princess, in the future, you will marry into the Gongding palace and hold that fool, and the good days are still ahead!" ”

Chu Cailiang was excited, and his ambitions were forgotten to hide.

Chu Junlan smiled, turned to the table, and polished the ink with one hand.

Seeing her so calm and gentle, Chu Cailiang realized that he was out of shape, hurriedly changed the topic, and instructed the mother-in-law in the courtyard: "Go, tell the Wang family, immediately arrange two second-class maids, and two daughters-in-law to serve in the third lady's house, and choose the best to serve people." ”

The mother-in-law was leaning against the gate of the courtyard yawning, and when she heard the unexpected "belch", she hurriedly ran to the "Yuqing Garden" where Aunt Wang was.

Aunt Wang was waiting for news, Chu Mengying pinched her shoulders for her, and Chu Huazhang was anxiously spinning all over the ground.

"Mother, do you think Dad will succeed?" After the people, Chu Mengying's sisters and brothers all called Wang's "mother".

"Yes, mother, how do I think that Chu Junlan's little slut has been a little evil since he woke up. Not to mention that her temperament has changed, and she will suddenly be cured, she shouldn't be caught by some ghost, right? ”

Aunt Wang patted her son on the shoulder comfortingly, "Brother Zhang, don't worry, even if she changes, she is still a boudoir woman, and she will still rely on her mother's family when she leaves the pavilion in the future, her husband is a fool, what kind of good place should you be in the palace?" The water is deep! Don't look at her arrogance now, when she marries in the future, you'll know what's going on. ”

"But she hasn't married yet," Chu Mengying said worriedly, "My daughter is only afraid that she will be pampered and arrogant, what my brother said is reasonable, I also think Chu Junlan is a little evil, mother, think about it, she is so decent, why did she suddenly wake up." ”

"Don't scare yourselves. Now just waiting for your father to coax things into his hands, there is silver, and there is no good life in the future? ”

Aunt Wang grabbed a handful of melon seeds and clicked: "This little slut is also worth a little money, the dowry of Gongding Wangfu is only 5,000 taels of silver, not counting antique calligraphy and paintings, and now there are these treasures of the eldest princess's mansion, won't the two of you lie on the gold to eat and drink in the future?"

"Sister Ying is sixteen years old this year, and your father is already looking for someone for you. With such a large sum of silver, you can also hold your head up in your in-law's house. Brother Zhang, not to mention, even if he doesn't have fame, he can be a rich man and be free for a lifetime. ”

Chu Mengying's face was crimson, full of yearning.

Chu Huazhang felt very bored, "Then you have to get the silver first." ”

As she was talking, the mother-in-law walked back and forth quickly: "Aunt Yu, the master instructed to choose two second-class maids, and two capable mothers-in-law went to serve in the third lady's room, and the moon and silver were paid by the master." ”

Aunt Wang nodded thoughtfully.

Chu Chuhuazhang took a sip: "Phew, where is that slut so noble, how many people need to be around to serve!" Dad is too eccentric. ”

Aunt Wang ignored her son, and turned around and called the eldest maid Hongfen, "Go, send the green wattle and the green pothos, as well as the Cai family and Liu Shunbao's family." ”

"They are all the most powerful ...... around their mother," Chu Mengying said halfway, but suddenly smiled.

Chu Junlan dried the ink and presented it to Chu Cailiang with both hands, "Father, let's use these first this time." ”

Chu Cailiang looked down, "Hundred-year-old wild ginseng, Western Regions Snow Lotus, Yipin Snow Lingzhi, ......"

"These are all medicines that I discussed with the doctors of the Tai Hospital in the Eldest Princess's Mansion before."

Chu Cailiang nodded, impatient to listen to this, "Tell your aunt for your father." ”

"Yes. The eldest princess has instructed that all medicines must be used in Sanjitang. ”

"Sanjitang?" Chu Cailiang rolled his eyes and thought for a while, "I haven't heard of this medical hall. ”

"The eldest princess ordered that the medicine can only be used in Sanjitang, saying that it is of good quality, and my father remembers to ask the doctor of Sanjitang to open a list and stamp it, and the daughter will be handed over to the eldest princess's mansion when she turns around."

"Got it." Since it was the eldest princess's request, they could only do it.

Chu Cailiang walked outside, and when he saw the two big boxes, he became more and more excited, and went outside to call seven or eight nursing homes, and couldn't wait to carry the boxes and leave.

Chu Junlan stood in front of the door, looking at the back of Chu Cailiang and his party, his eyes changed from the deferential and humble of Fang Cai, revealing a bit of blade-like edge, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking arc.

"Ziyan."

"Third Miss?"

"Early tomorrow morning, you will go to Sanji Hall in the north of the city......" lowered his voice and whispered a few words in Zi Yan's ear.

Zi Yan nodded again and again: "Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely do it for you." ”

"Third Miss." At this moment, Hongfen, the eldest girl of Yuqing Garden, carried a lantern and walked quickly with four people.

Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and stood in front of the door without moving.

Hongfen saluted and said: "Third Miss, Green Wattle and Green Pothos are second-class maids, this is Mother Cai, this is Liu Shunbao's family, and they are the most quick to do things on weekdays, Aunt Wang specially ordered them to come to serve you according to the master's instructions." ”

Two young girls wearing tender green teeth and nails, a woman about fifty years old and a daughter-in-law in her early thirties stepped forward together and kowtowed to Chu Junlan respectfully: "See Third Miss." ”

Chu Junlan smiled: "Let's all get up." ”

"Thank you, Miss Three."

Hongfen bowed and retired, went back to resume her life, and Zi Yan went to send Hongfen out.

Chu Junlan said with a smile: "There are few houses in the West Courtyard, I'm afraid I will be wronged by the four." ”

Liu Shunbao's family was busy: "The third lady is too elevated to the slaves and maids, the slaves and maids are all here to serve the third miss, and it is the duty of the slaves and maids to serve you, so what grievances can you talk about?" ”

"yes." Cai's mother smiled with two crow's feet, and her face was very kind, "The third lady can just tell me if she has something." ”

"Cai's mother is older, so she will be the housekeeper mother of Xixiao Cross Courtyard in the future."

"Yes." Cai's mother respectfully responded, and seeing that Chu Junlan had no more orders, she immediately arranged for Luyi, Luluo and Liu Shunbao's house to tidy up the wings.

Lu Yi and Lu Luo were serving Chu Junlan to wash and comb her hair, change clothes and make beds, etc., as soon as they came, Zi Yan immediately relaxed a lot, but she still didn't worry about others coming to the night, and still slept in the outer room of Chu Junlan's bedroom.

Before dawn the next day, Zi Yan quietly left the house with a note and a silver needle given by Chu Junlan.

Chu Junlan took the green wattle and the green pothos to greet the old lady.
