Chapter 64: Balm
Daiyu no longer lived in the east wing of her mother's room, but cleaned up another courtyard and renovated it in an orderly manner. That's it, Yun Zhen looked at it and said, this bottle is moved there, that ornament is placed here, and the yellow reed must be circled like a spinning top.
Mama Wang smiled when she saw it on the side, "It turns out that the slaves and maids have never seen the world, and they really don't know how to set it up. ”
"Mama, don't bother with him, it's not him who lives here, listen to what he does? It's better to take out all the things I bought quickly, and send them to the palace, if it's late, it won't be a tribute. ”
Yun Zhen didn't pay attention to Daiyu, she was still instructing, and after hearing her words, she raised her head and said to this side, "You don't have to worry, send it to the palace first, and I will ask someone to pick it up, and then send it to the palace after making a book." ”
Daiyu knew that there were many rules for sending them to the palace, and she also wanted Yun Zhen to help her, so she listened to him, and all the things that should be packed up, mostly some fabrics from the south, rare imported goods, several self-striking bells, and a few pocket watches, for Concubine Rong, as for whether she kept it for herself or used it to give away, it was up to her.
A single copy in Taiming Palace, the one for Yun Zhen is different, much more casual, not too valuable, he wrote a letter to ask her to help pay attention to the ancient books, Daiyu herself thinks a few inkstones, and some embroidery work that is used to practice on weekdays.
Yun Zhen picked out a purse and looked at it, and saw that it was a tiger head, with good spices in it, and looked at the round, gold-black thread embroidered lines, lifelike, and couldn't help but smile. Seeing a few inkstones in a blink of an eye, Yun Zhen listened to Daiyu tell her about the origin, and they were all extraordinary.
The gifts sent to the palace were all ordered, Yun Zhen took a closer look, asked Huang Lu to send it in, handed it to the person he said, and asked someone to hand the sign in. After a while, a word came out from the palace, saying that Jing'an Palace told Daiyu to go in early tomorrow morning and not have to wait outside the palace.
At one point, Mama Wang came to ask where the dinner was, and Daiyu left Yun Zhen to eat together. She just came back, and there was no one in the house, Yun Zhen already had this meaning, the two of them had dinner at the same table, and there were two people serving around them, so there were not so many taboos, so they set up a table in Daiyu's house and used some slightly.
Yun Zhen saw that Daiyu didn't use it much, and it was just that she was tired on the boat these days, so she couldn't worry, and gave Li Mi a look. Li Mi went out and brought a cup of soup, Daiyu drank a little more, and asked how the palace lady was.
"Still like that, how is Brother Wei now?"
"When I come back, he'll come back with me. It's just that he is about to play, and it will inevitably be delayed back and forth, so he will stay there first, and if it goes well, he will not enter Beijing until the spring festival in the future. ”
The Lin family's ancestral home is Yangzhou, and Brother Eaves must be in his hometown, so it is naturally cheaper to stay in Yangzhou.
"Next year, a few people will be selected in the palace to enter the palace, in order to have a princess who wants to enter the school, and there must be a companion. What the concubine means, if you want to, she will help you to find out. ”
Daiyu shook her head, "I'm not going." I used to feel tired enough to watch you study every day, so I didn't want to suffer that sin, and I didn't want to be famous, let alone be a talented person, praise the good ......" Speaking of this, she blushed and didn't say any more.
Yun Zhen didn't hear it, and said with a smile, "When you said this, I remember a previous incident." ”
"What's the matter?"
"It is said that one year, my father went to Jiangnan, and the eldest brother estimated that he was ignorant at that time, so he followed, and told people that he wanted to be a son to the salt merchant, and he slept until he woke up naturally every day. For some reason, these words later reached the ears of his father. That year, Lord Lin was ordered to patrol the salt in Yangzhou, and my father said this in front of the cabinet ministers, and the eldest brother was almost frightened, and I was not sensible to laugh at that time, and I almost laughed out loud! ”
Daiyu couldn't help but laugh, she knew that the royal answer was correct, and the rules were very big, but this allusion was really funny, but I was afraid that at that time, Yun Zhen was also uncomfortable.
For a while, it was not early, and seeing that there was a curfew, Yun Zhen got up and left. He walked to the door, paused again, turned his head and asked, "When are you moving to the Rongguo Mansion?" How many people are you going to take with you? I'm afraid I'm going to live for a long time, but after that, do you want to be the same as the girl over there? ”
Daiyu walked over, held on to the door frame, and thought for a while, "I thought about sending someone over early tomorrow morning to say that the things were sorted out first, they were all in Beijing, and there was no restriction on how many things they brought over, and the people who served still had to bring them over, and they wouldn't be the same as the girls over there." ”
Yun Zhen nodded, "Hengzhu is only one night today, I will call someone to come and watch tonight, you don't have to worry, tomorrow morning, I will pick you up into the palace." ”
Except for the ones to be used tonight, some of the cages don't have to be opened. Daiyu will stay overnight, early the next morning, before breakfast, Yun Zhen came, Wang Xie followed him in, brought a lot of street snacks over, Daiyu used it happily, and told him, ask him to buy more fun things for her, "I'll sew you a few more sachets." ”
Li Mi said with a smile on the side, "The girl might as well ask His Highness for some balm, just the kind of palace made in the first half of the year that the mother asked to send to Yangzhou, the slave and maid look better than the outside, and now there is not much left." Originally, the slave maid wanted to make some by herself, but now the recipe has not been made, I am afraid that it will not be good for a while and a half, and I will not take it later. ”
Where does Yun Zhen know what balm balm? Fortunately, the people around him were brought out by Yan Duo, Yan Duo's godson is called Zheng Ping, seeing Yun Zhen looking at him, he hurriedly said, "This matter should be left to the slave to handle, there is no girl and sister in the master's house, so I rashly went to ask for balsam cream, something else is eye-catching." ”
For a while, both of them felt that their faces were hot, so they didn't have much to say, so they used breakfast, and Daiyu went out of the second door to get in the car and went to the palace.
Daiyu first went to Taiming Palace to meet the queen mother, and then entered Jing'an Palace, Yun Zhen accompanied her and talked for a while, Concubine Rong had not seen Daiyu for many years, and saw that she was born graceful, beautiful and beautiful, her words and deeds were very orderly, and she was not alienated from her, she was very happy, and drove Yun Zhen out, "Tell our mother and son to talk, if you are not free, don't come in, I sent Yan Duo to send her out." ”
Yun Zhen had to retreat before leaving the main hall, Zheng Ping didn't know what to say with Yan Duo under the eaves of the corridor, the two saw him busy, Yun Zhen put his hands behind his back, stood on the steps, looked at the sky, and sneered, "Yan Duo, you asked your godson to learn from you what he said at breakfast, can you say it properly?" ”
