Chapter 216: Abacus (1)
After Feng Chencheng looked at the post, he hurriedly ordered Dong'er to change her clothes, and picked out a few acceptable gifts.
Knowing that Feng Zuoxiang was meeting guests, he informed the housekeeper and hurried to the palace with gifts.
The faint smell of agarwood wafted in the Cining Palace, and the Queen Mother reclined on the chaise longue.
She propped her forehead with one hand and gently rubbed her temples with the other.
Feng Chencheng walked in in a hurry, bringing a burst of fragrant wind.
Seeing the sick look of the Queen Mother, Feng Chencheng hurriedly saluted and stepped forward, shushing the cold and asking for warmth.
"Alas...... Here you are, sit down. ”
The Queen Mother said, waving her hand lazily.
Feng Chencheng glanced at some folds on the table, a few folds were spread out, and he could see that the items and prices written on them were all the items and prices used in this wedding, and there were abacus and pen and ink next to the folds.
All this looked like the Queen Mother was tired from preparing for the wedding, Feng Chencheng Bingxue was smart, and hurriedly flattered the gifts prepared before going out:
"Queen Mother, I just got a box of pearls. Although it can't be compared with Dongzhu, it is not bad to grind it into powder.
I am really sorry that you have worked so hard for my marriage to the Holy One. ”
Feng Chen's cheeks were red, revealing a shy expression.
The Queen Mother smiled and patted her hands: "Good boy, you have a heart." ”
As she spoke, she motioned for Aunt Yun to accept the gift, and struggled to sit up with Feng Chencheng's support.
After taking two breaths, he got up again and walked to the table and sat down, looking as if the wind was blowing dead leaves and would fall at any moment.
Feng Chencheng waited cautiously beside him, secretly thinking to himself: What does the Queen Mother want to do?
"Come, sit down and talk." The Empress Dowager looked quite weak, and reached out to take Feng Chencheng's hand and let her sit down next to her.
Aunt Yun changed the tea, put it on the table for the two, and tidied up the table.
The Empress Dowager waved her hand at Aunt Yun and motioned for her to go out.
Aunt Yun saluted the two, quietly withdrew, and closed the door.
"Alas, good boy, we are a family when the door is closed. There are some things that I really can't say in front of outsiders. ”
Feng Chencheng pursed the corners of his mouth, staring at his big eyes with a confused look, but he was beating a drum in his heart, and he always felt an indescribable sense of unease.
Seeing that she was just smiling and not speaking, the Queen Mother said in her heart: This girl is stable, and it will not be easy to deal with in the future.
But that's what makes it interesting, where is it to kill a cat and kill a tiger to have a sense of accomplishment.
"You look at these excerpts first." The Empress Dowager said, and pushed the fold that Aunt Yun had sorted out just now in front of Feng Chencheng.
Feng Chencheng thought that the Empress Dowager was testing whether she had the ambition to control the Middle Palace, so she naturally waved her hand again and again:
"This, it's not appropriate, right?"
"What I let you see, what's inappropriate? You marry into the royal family, and one day you have to deal with these things as well. ”
Feng Chencheng hesitated for a moment and said obediently, "Okay." ”
She took a fold and flipped through it slowly, the expression on her face not changing at all.
The Queen Mother has been looking at her seriously, and said in her heart: Sure enough, it is a family from a wealthy family, and these numbers are nothing in her eyes.
"Queen Mother, are these all prepared for this big wedding?"
Feng Chencheng appropriately controlled his tone and expression, neither looking overly excited nor boring.
"It should have been ......" The Empress Dowager dragged out her voice and took away the fold in front of Feng Chencheng.
Feng Chencheng's expression finally changed slightly, and this instantaneous change did not escape the eyes of the Queen Mother.
"Queen Mother, what does this mean? Could it be ...... Am I doing something wrong? ”
