Chapter 412: The Friends of the Boudoir
Shao Wanyun sat on the edge of the couch and chatted with Jiang Zuiyao, from when she first married to the Shao family to giving birth to Chu Yi, and from Dieyi to Huo Yuchu. The two sisters can be said to have nothing to talk about, and they also let Jiang Zuiyao know that Shao Wanyun did not marry the wrong person.
And Shao Ziqing and Huo Yuchu sat on the soft couch, a cup of tea, a handful of melon seeds, and the conversation between men and men did not need to be as gossip as the sisters in the boudoir.
In the dormitory, the four of them talked to each other in pairs and did not disturb each other.
In a blink of an eye, it was approaching dusk, and Shao Ziqing said to Huo Yuchu: "Let's stay in the house for dinner today, I'll let the kitchen cook a few specialty dishes, let's have a drink." ”
Huo Yuchu is also rare to talk freely, if it is paired with a pot of wine, it can be said to be the icing on the cake, but he still subconsciously looked at Shao Wanyun, she was holding Jiang Zuiyao's hand, chatting happily.
Seeing this, Shao Ziqing said to Shao Wanyun: "Wanyun, stay at home for dinner tonight." ”
Shao Wanyun turned around and looked at the paper window, only to realize that time had passed so quickly.
Jiang Zuiyao also said enthusiastically: "Since it's close to dinner, don't leave, stay." ”
is a family, Shao Wanyun rarely went back to her parents' house once, nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll send someone back to the palace to spread the word, don't let the family wait for me and Yu Chu to go back." ”
Shao Wanyun got up and walked to the door and said a few words to her personal maid.
Xi Wei stepped up in the air, held a brocade box, and said, "Master, can you give this thing to the princess?" ”
Jiang Zuiyao opened the brocade box and saw that it was a fine statue of Guanyin, made of gold-plated heavy industry, which was once given to her by the Queen Mother.
Despite this, Jiang Zuiyao still asked, "Is this the most expensive item in the warehouse?" ”
Xi Wei replied: "This is the queen mother's reward to the master, the things in the palace are naturally not bad, and there are other precious objects, but the slave thinks that after all, it is a congratulatory gift from the master to the princess, and this is the most suitable for Guanyin." ”
Jiang Zuiyao nodded with satisfaction, and put the brocade box on the couch.
When Shao Wanyun came back, she sat down again, and said with a smile: "If it wasn't for my brother mentioning it, I really didn't expect it to be so late." ”
Jiang Zuiyao replied with a smile: "What are you afraid of, you have nothing to do, if it is too late, you can stay in the house for the night, and this east courtyard is not without vacant rooms." ”
When the words fell, Jiang Zuiyao picked up the brocade box and handed it to Shao Wanyun and said: "It stands to reason that I should be there to celebrate your wedding in person, but I can't help myself, although people can't arrive, but the ceremony can't be left behind." ”
Shao Wanyun was a little surprised, but she didn't expect Jiang Zuiyao to make up for the wedding gift, so she took the brocade box and opened it, and her eyes immediately lit up. She was born in a wealthy family, and she has seen a lot of expensive objects, and when she took a look, she knew that this statue of Guanyin was made of heavy gold, which was worth a lot of money, and she exclaimed: "Sister-in-law, this is the outside, such a good thing, I am afraid that it will not be found in Zhaojing City." ”
Jiang Zuiyao never took such a thing outside the body to heart, and the pity on the side interjected: "The princess has good eyesight, this statue of Guanyin was originally given to the master by the queen mother, and the slave maid heard that the best master was invited, and the best doucai porcelain was gilded to build such a statue that took three years to come out, and then the queen mother specially asked the mage to open the light, which must be a miracle." ”
Shao Wanyun heard this, but she didn't dare to accept it, and hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, my sister doesn't dare to accept such a precious object." ”
Jiang Zuiyao saw that Shao Wanyun was about to put down the brocade box, so she hurriedly raised her hand to stop it, and said, "If my sister doesn't accept it, she won't reward my face?" ”
Shao Wanyun hurriedly shook her head: "How come?" It's just that this object is too expensive, and it was given to you by the Queen Mother. ”
Jiang Zuiyao smiled indifferently: "Between you and me, saying these things is to see the outside, and you should choose the best things to give you, if I care about these, I can just find someone who can save face and send you is, I will keep such a good thing myself." ”
This is not rough, but Shao Wanyun is still a little hesitant, Jiang Zuiyao continued: "It stands to reason that when you get married, it should be me, who is a sister-in-law, to help you buy it, and then personally send you out of the house and get into the sedan chair, but I didn't do it, it was my dereliction of duty as a sister-in-law." ”
Shao Wanyun frowned: "Sister-in-law, don't say that, I've never picked on you." ”
Jiang Zuiyao smiled warmly: "Then take it, it should be my heart, if you don't like this, I'll let Xi Wei take you to my warehouse, you can choose the things inside, you can take whatever you like." ”
"Sister-in-law!" , Shao Wanyun called out in an aggravated tone.
Jiang Zuiyao held the brocade box and pushed it towards Shao Wanyun, and insisted: "Take it, don't push it with me, if such a good thing is broken, it will be a pity." ”
Shao Ziqing on the side had already heard the conversation between the two, and at this moment she added fuel to the fire: "Since it was given to you by your sister-in-law, you can take it, if you don't accept it, she will have to worry about it for a while." ”
Shao Wanyun saw that Jiang Zuiyao also sent her sincerely, and at the moment there was a brother who persuaded her, if she didn't accept it, she wouldn't know how to raise it, so she had to smile and said: "Then my sister is better to be respectful than to obey her fate, and let my sister-in-law break the bank." ”
Shao Wanyun covered the brocade box and handed it to her maid, who also accepted it very carefully, for fear that one would accidentally fall.
By the time the food was served, it was already dark.
Shao Wanyun carefully helped Jiang Zuiyao out of bed, walked to the dining table and sat down, and asked her subordinates to quickly take a cushion to lean on, and asked Nuan Han: "Sister-in-law, do you feel uncomfortable?" If you want to move the Taishi chair, my sister asked people to spread soft cotton wool. ”
Jiang Zuiyao smiled and shook her head: "I am mainly recuperating from internal injuries now, I can walk on the ground, and my sister sees me as too fragile, so be it, it's good." ”
The family banquet opened, thirty-two sumptuous dishes, a large table full, four people ate, and seven or eight people waited on the side.
During the banquet, Shao Ziqing and Huo Yuchu drank and talked happily, and the one who drank was called a full pleasure.
Shao Wanyun and Jiang Zuiyao didn't pay attention to the two of them, they chatted together, and when they were full, Jiang Zuiyao asked, "Sister can you eat?" ”
Shao Wanyun nodded: "Eat well, what I want to eat most is this beef brisket crispy duck, the chef invited from Jiangnan in our mansion can't eat it in the Regent's Mansion." ”
Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly said: "Is that difficult?" If my sister wants to eat, she will come back, and it is not far away. If you are too lazy to move, let the cook go to the palace for a while and make it for you to eat. ”
Shao Wanyun replied with a smile: "It's still my sister-in-law who is considerate, I told my mother, my mother said that I am already the princess, and when such a thing spreads, it is inevitable that others will say that my concubine is greedy, but she refuses." ”
Jiang Zuiyao said: "People live for a lifetime, isn't it just for this mouth, you can't be wronged." Since this is the case, I will ask the Jiangnan chef to make a beef brisket and crispy duck every seven or eight days, and let someone send it to you. ”
