After the ladies left, Princess Xu solemnly said to the Bao family: "Madam, these gifts are really meager, and they can be regarded as a heart, so you can accept them on behalf of the two young ladies!" ”

For the Yan family, no matter what the cause of the fire is, it was Wei Yining who saved Miss Yan Jiu after all, and this life-saving grace must be repaid.

The reason why she still brought Wei Yimi's share was also the result of the Yan family's thoughtful consideration, knowing that Wei Yining was only afraid that she would not be favored in the Zhiyong Mansion, and bringing Wei Yimi's share would also save her from making it difficult for her.

But the Bao family was also resolute, and said with a very serious expression: "The princess really tormented us when she said this, just based on the origin of our two family friends, isn't it right?"

That's because Miss Nine is blessed with a great life and has the blessing of the gods. My children are vulgar, but they have always admired Miss Nine, and if the princess thinks that they still have a point or two to merit, so that they can have the opportunity to learn from Miss Nine, we will be very grateful. ”

Princess Xu is a smart person in ice and snow, and when she heard Bao say this, she didn't leave a gift, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on her face.

She didn't answer Bao's words, but said with a kind smile: "How is Zhiyonggong's body?" When I came, the prince specially told me to greet on my behalf. ”

When Bao saw that Princess Xu had mentioned Wei Zongyong, he sighed and said with a very lonely expression: "I have the compliments of Prince Lao, my lord has been depressed these days, and he has been sick, and the doctor has also invited a lot of them, but with little effect." ”

Princess Xu listened and said: "My prince also said that the saint asked about the grandfather a few days ago, and he wanted to punish him just to block the mouths of those imperial historians. ”

Bao's heart moved, she wanted to take this opportunity to let her daughter communicate more with the Yan family, but Princess Xu didn't go on the road, which inevitably disappointed her, but after listening to the other party's words, she smelled an unusual smell from it.

However, Princess Xu only spoke to the point, only giving her a hint of nothingness, and Bao could only pretend not to hear anything, and accompanied her as usual.

Princess Xu and Bao Shi talked here for another half an hour, and then got up to say goodbye when they saw that it was getting dark.

Bao's diligent meal, Princess Xu said with a smile: "I shouldn't have refused, but our old lady's lunch has always been served by me and Tingzhen, and when I came out today, I told the old lady that I would go back before lunch, and I asked the duchess to forgive me, and I will receive it another day." ”

As he was talking, Wei Yining and Wei Yimi, the two of them also accompanied Miss Yan Jiu and turned back.

Bao and the others sent Princess Xu's mother and daughter to the gate of the mansion, and did not turn around until they watched the car of the palace disappear into the corner of the street.

After Princess Xu's mother and daughter left, Wei Zongyong came over to find Bao.

Because he was visiting the ladies of the palace, he naturally did not come to him.

I heard that the people from the Zhudong Royal Mansion had left, so I came to the Bao family's side.

Wei Yining went back to her residence, and when Wei Yimi saw her father coming, she didn't stay long, and asked the maid to help her go back.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Wei Zongyong asked Bao's, "What did Princess Xu say today?" ”

Bao's face was a little happy, and although there was no one else around, he lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being overheard by others: "I confiscated the gifts prepared by the princess and returned them in full." ”

Wei Zongyong listened and said: "It's okay, let's not thank you, as long as we can communicate with the Yan family from now on, it's better than anything else." ”

"The princess mentioned the lord and said that the princess asked her to greet her." Bao said: "I guess the good luck of the master is coming. ”

"Oh, why did Madame say that?" Wei Zongyong was a little incredulous at first glance.

"How can the Yan family be favored by others in vain?" Bao's tone was very firm: "Otherwise, the princess would not have mentioned it out of thin air." ”

Wei Zongyong was overjoyed when he heard this, and couldn't help but rub his hands again and again, King Zhudong is a big celebrity around the emperor, and with a few kind words from him in front of the emperor, he can get endless benefits.

He couldn't help but sweep away the previous frustration, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.

What if my daughter died? What if you are fined by the emperor?

As long as you can be promoted, these things are not worth mentioning.

On the way home, Miss Nine Yan Tingzhen asked Princess Xu: "Mother, why did we bring back the gifts we gave to the two young ladies of the Wei family?" ”

Princess Xu had to hide her daughter's innocent gaze: "The Duchess said, this gift cannot be accepted, and accepting it will only make our two families look angry."

I think our two families are also world friends, since she said so, I don't want to insist too much, but I disappointed her heart. ”

Miss Yan Jiu was not deeply involved in the world, and she did not realize that her mother's words were quite flawed.

Princess Xu silently turned her face to the car window, this Bao is really an insatiable person.

How could her daughter have too much contact with the notorious Wei family?

The grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, and the Yan family attaches great importance to its reputation, and must not bear the name of treachery.

But in the same way, we must also draw a line with the Wei family as much as possible.

When the Wei family didn't have an accident, the Zhudong Palace's dealings with them were average, not to mention the frequent scandals in the Zhiyong Mansion today?

The Bao family's refusal to accept the thank you gift was by no means out of high wind and brightness, but because of a deeper picture.

Before Prince Yan and Princess Xu came, they had already expected that the Wei family would be very difficult.

Although Lord Yan and Wei Zongyong are ministers of the same dynasty and are of the same age, although the titles of the two families are different in rank, they can be regarded as world friends.

When the old man Wei Xun was alive, the relationship with the old prince Yan was not very close, but there was no contradiction.

The reason for this is that Wei Zongyong is really unbearable. The so-called things gather by like, and people are divided by groups. Yan Wangye and him are not all the way, so they are naturally estranged.

Therefore, Lord Yan had already planned for a long time, if the Wei family refused to accept the gift sent, then simply give the Wei family a big gift and completely block their mouths.

Wei Zongyong must have been worried at this time, because the emperor had just punished him for his money.

Of course, Yan Wangye knew what the Wei family wanted most, and since this was the case, he simply helped Wei Zongyong to promote his official position.

The Yan family naturally knew that Yan Tingzhen's real benefactor was Wei Yining, but if she simply thanked Wei Yining, maybe it would backfire and cause trouble for her.

After all, all the Yan family can give her are some expensive gifts, Wei Yining lives in the Wei family after all, and her marriage will be decided by Wei Zongyong and the Bao family in the future.

If she is too popular, it will inevitably make people jealous, then the Yan family's retribution will harm her.

"Mother, the fifth lady of the Wei family and I are very close to each other," Yan Tingzhen said happily, "I want to invite her to our house another day." ”

"Zhen'er, the fifth girl is indeed your benefactor, and we will definitely repay her kindness," Princess Xu said to her daughter patiently: "But the Wei family is a muddy water at all, your innocent reputation cannot be tarnished in the slightest, listen to your mother, and you should have less contact with them in the future!" ”

Knowing her daughter Mo Ruo's mother, Princess Xu knew that her daughter was shy but kind by nature, and she was too easy to be taken advantage of.

That Bao has always been calculating, and he is a veteran who can scrape fat in the stomach of mosquitoes and find peas in quails.

The chick must not share the same branch as the owl, otherwise it will only affect its own reputation.
