Mrs. Lu in the inner courtyard here, after everyone in the second room asked for peace, no matter how many opportunities she had to take care of someone, she would stop, and their mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law and concubines were talking with each other, each thinking about their hearts.

In order to reduce the trouble of socializing, Xia Yanqing only followed his two sisters-in-law closely and got together with his grandchildren's daughters, pretending to be introverted and not good at words, only listening to others and not interjecting.

However, the cousins and cousins of the big house and the third room didn't intend to let her mess around like this.

Su Shi, the sister-in-law on the side of the big house, looked at Xia Yanqing with a smile and said: "March is the day when the fifth sister leaves the pavilion, we discussed it together a few days ago, what to add makeup to the fifth sister, don't repeat it." We can unanimously agree that our fourth aunt and grandmother are rich people, and they must be able to add makeup. I don't know what Yan Qing, you planned? ”

Xia Yanqing looked at Xia Yanrong opposite.

Xia Yanrong was a little shy, pursed his lips and smiled, and lowered his head, but he really didn't know how shy he was.

"What happened in March," Xia Yanqing said, "Is the plan a little earlier now?" I haven't thought about it yet. ”

Several cousins-in-law looked sideways, and finally the eldest sister-in-law Su continued: "If you want to say that you can do it, you have to say that the glass ornaments of Qingyunzhai are rare in the world. Those who can get their hands on them are all destined people, and they can meet but cannot be sought. But our home is much simpler, Qingyun Zhai is their own business, for others, glass ornaments are rare in the world, but if we need it, it is naturally not a problem. Otherwise, how about Yan Qing give the fifth sister a long face and give her a glass ornament? It's okay to make it simpler. ”

Xia Yanqing didn't take their words seriously, and was boredly fiddling with his handkerchief, looking at the orchid embroidered on the handkerchief. Suddenly, when I heard these people turn the topic to the glass ornaments, I couldn't help but be surprised, and raised my eyes to look at the Su family.

But I was complaining in my heart, these people have done a lot of bad things, and they are embarrassed to ask for glass ornaments? They themselves know that it is rare in the world, why are they still so big-faced?

As soon as Su's words came out, it was not only Xia Yanqing's surprise, but also immediately attracted everyone to look over here, and while Mrs. Lu looked at this side, she glanced at Mrs. Li unhappily, and was very dissatisfied with her.

If Xia Yanqing, who can squeeze out, loosens her mouth, it will also be good for her to make concessions on the four-wheeled carriage. A glass ornament only has a few silver, especially if you still have to give it out as a dowry, is it worth giving up this face?

The eldest daughter-in-law is getting more and more confused, and she can't even figure out which one is more and which is less, completely ignoring the overall situation of the Xia family, and only planning for her daughter who is about to marry.

Xia Yanrong still looked so shy, not only did he not say anything about it, but he didn't even dare to look at people, so naturally he couldn't say anything. But the rest of the sisters-in-law discussed with me word by word, what kind of ornaments are beautiful enough, simple and simple benefits, etc., as if Xia Yanqing had promised to send an ornament.

After a lot of chasing and interception, Gao and Yang tried to divert the topic several times to no avail, until everyone stopped, looked at Xia Yanqing together, and waited for her to make a statement.

Xia Yanqing thought about it for a long time before he said in embarrassment: "This ...... Alas, I'm afraid it's enough to choke. ”

"Isn't the fourth sister the big proprietor of Qingyun Zhai? How to do Qingyunzhai's things and where to go, isn't this a matter of the fourth sister's words? What's so hard about that. This time it was Xia Ruiqing who spoke, and she was afraid that everything would have a beginning, and she also hoped that Xia Yanqing could send Xia Yanrong glass ornaments.

This time she can send Xia Yanrong, and the next time she waits for her to leave the pavilion, she Xia Yanqing will have to give away the second one. The same cousins, you can't favor one over the other.

As Su said, only one or two pieces of glazed ornaments are produced a month, and since this thing began to be displayed in the world, until now, there are only about twenty pieces.

And buying glazed ornaments is not who has more silver, who can buy it, it depends on when people make it, when they put it out, who can have the opportunity to meet.

There is such a thing as a dowry, and the value is secondary, mainly to have face.

"That's right," Xia Yanqing patiently explained, "I was going to honor my father with a glass ornament, but the thing has already been made, but my father said that I was too reckless. The production of glazed ornaments is difficult, but there are many people who are willing to spend money to buy, especially the rich and noble in the capital, and no one can be offended. It's good like now, I don't accept reservations, I don't look at my family background, no matter who it is, as long as I catch up and can take out the silver, I can buy the ornaments.

If I honor my father with an ornament and open this head, then I can honor my mother again. Then there are uncles and aunts, and then the princes and generals, I'm afraid that I can't do this glass business. Not only can I not do it safely, but I may also cause unnecessary right and wrong because I don't have the goods in my hand......"

As she spoke, she smiled apologetically at her cousins and two cousins, "...... It's really hard for me to do this in business. I also asked several sisters-in-law and two younger sisters to understand Yan Qing's difficulties. ”

This explanation is reasonable, and it is also a real thing, but it is not understood by the people of the old house.

Xia Yanrong smiled reluctantly, and said, "It's nothing, don't be embarrassed", and then pulled his sister-in-law to talk to herself, ignoring Xia Yanqing.

Xia Ruiqing pursed his lips and said: "The fourth sister is really a good businessman, it turns out that in order to do a good job, the fourth sister can give up a lot of things." ”

In a few words, he satirized Xia Yanqing for doing businessmen's business, and accused her of abandoning her parents and sisters in order to make money.

After speaking, without waiting for Xia Yanqing to react, he also turned his head and pulled his sister-in-law to speak. Several people actually put Xia Yanqing's aunt and sister-in-law aside at the same time and hung them up.

Xia Yanqing blinked, didn't you even give you a chance to find a field?

She turned her head to look at Su Qiao, "Aunt Su, did I hear it wrong, the meaning of the sixth sister seems to be ridiculing me for my low status, am I not suitable for working in the workshop?" ”

At this time, you can speak with characters who represent some of the emperor's intentions, so that you can suppress these Xiaoxiao, and by the way, tell them that she Xia Yanqing is not a random shout from these people in the Xia family's old mansion.

Su Qiao smiled, didn't he want to suffer at all? Why didn't she find out before? I even think that this aunt is very talkative.

She said seriously: "Auntie, don't think so, the meaning of the emperor and the court is the most important." If you are a merchant, where can you ask the imperial court to allocate 10,000 taels of silver to you from the household department within two days without a budget, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to you. ”

Old Madam Lu added another belly, although she didn't ask for the glass ornaments, so that she still had the hope of asking for a four-wheeled carriage in her heart. But her granddaughter was wiped face like this, and she still couldn't fight back against the palace maid who went back, so she couldn't hold her breath.

There are people in the second room who are so agitated, and she feels that the New Year is really not a good thing.
