Chapter 586: Gifts
The Queen Mother's public tour is a major event.
The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs have been preparing for a long time, after all, there was no case of the Queen Mother going out on patrol alone in the past, and they were all with the emperor.
Because the emperor of this dynasty is young and has not yet been in power, the court is still the regent of the queen mother, so the ceremonial guards prepared by the Ministry of Rites are equivalent to the specifications of the imperial driver.
It can be described as huge and extraordinarily grand.
Su Qing was a little busier than others, on the one hand, he ordered his house to clean up the house, prune the flowers and plants, and strictly urged his subordinates to never do the same domineering things as before.
The weather in the whole Su Province has taken on a new look, which is completely different from before.
Those concubines and aunts also cut clothes and bought jewelry, in order to dress up beautifully and see the driver when the time comes.
These women, who can only be concubines from humble backgrounds, have never seen any nobles in their lives, and they are naturally overjoyed to see the Queen Mother.
"Sir."
The woman's sweet voice elongated the tone.
Su Qing didn't look back and knew that it must be a pregnant little aunt who came.
Originally, the concubines in the inner house were not allowed to come to the front, but this little aunt believed that she was pregnant, so she regarded herself as the mistress of the Su family, and often swaggered through the market.
She was pregnant in her womb, which was Su Qing's greatest hope, so she had to rely on her.
"What are you doing here? What if I bump into it and hurt my child? ”
"No, the concubine will be careful."
The little aunt is slender and thin, but she has a big belly and poop, and she knows that she has received a lot of compensation during pregnancy.
The pointed white face is a bit like a fox, and her eyes are as cunning as a fox, no wonder the aunts in the backyard call her "vixen".
"Sir."
The little aunt entangled, "The queen mother is coming to the house, and the concubine doesn't have any good jewelry, how can she see the driver?" The master bought some jewelry for the slave family, the slave family fell in love with ......"
"Who said you wanted to see a driver?"
Su Qing didn't react to her coquettishness, "You are a concubine, you don't have the identity of a wife, so it stands to reason that you can't see the queen mother." Just let the housekeeper buy the jewelry, go back. ”
The little aunt's eyes immediately widened, "Don't let the concubine see you?" The concubine is pregnant with the only heir of the master, how can she not let the concubine see her? The sisters in the backyard are ready to see you! ”
Su Qing waved his hand, "You don't understand the rules, how do you make it when you see that you collide with the Queen Mother?" Still don't. I asked the Queen Mother to go out of the palace to inspect this time for another purpose, do you think it is really just the idea of inviting her to come to a relative's house to sit? ”
The little aunt's eyes widened with curiosity, "What is the master's idea?" ”
In the major affairs of the court and politics, no matter how much Su Qing dotes on her, it is impossible to tell her.
He only said: "What do you know as a woman in the house?" Go tell the housekeeper what jewelry you want to buy, and don't dwell on it here. ”
The little aunt pouted unhappily, "What's wrong with the woman in the house?" The Queen Mother was not originally a harem woman, but now—"
As soon as these words came out, Su Qing immediately frowned and glared at her.
His eyes were strange and scary, and the little aunt shrank back, "The concubine said the wrong thing, don't blame the master, the concubine didn't mean to slander the queen mother." ”
"You are indeed slandering yourself by comparing yourself with the Queen Mother."
Su Qing said in a deep voice: "If this kind of thing is heard by others, it is not that you are incapable of words and deeds, but that I have no way to discipline you." The Queen Mother was already very dissatisfied with the behavior of the people in the Su Mansion before, so you must not cause trouble for me again. ”
"Oh......"
The little aunt coquettishly held his arm, "The concubine doesn't dare anymore." The concubine went to talk to Sister Xiao, the master is busy. ”
At the mention of Miss Su, Su Qing's brows furrowed again.
He has not sent Miss Su back to her hometown for the time being, and she is still in Beijing to be raised.
Looking at the attitude of the palace, it is impossible to make Miss Su a palace concubine, and keep it, if she can marry a prince and nobleman in the future, it will also be good, and she can help Su Fu.
Not to mention anything else, isn't the second prince still married?
If Su Youyi leaves the palace this time, he can please Su Youyi, and maybe there is a chance for Miss Su to marry the second prince and become a princess.
He thought about the gift he had prepared, and he wondered if Su Youyi would like it......
The little aunt held her stomach and went to the back to find Miss Su.
She knew that Miss Su had failed to be elected as a palace concubine, and now no one in Su Mansion valued her, and even Su Qing was lukewarm to her.
I was angry in front of the old man just now, and I just happened to be angry with Miss Su at this time.
She swaggered into Miss Su's yard, and before the maid could tell the inside, the little aunt had already gone in by herself. Miss Su was sitting on the couch and waiting, when she saw her come in and stood up hurriedly.
"Little aunt, why are you here?"
"Up and down this house, where can I go?"
The little aunt puffed up her stomach proudly, "I just came from the old man in front of me, what's the matter, can't I come here from you?" ”
Miss Su knew her current status in the mansion, so she naturally didn't dare to offend the pregnant little aunt, so she got up and gave up her seat, "Of course not, aunt sit down." ”
The little aunt held her stomach and sat down on the couch slowly.
After looking around, I saw that there was nothing on the couch, and I couldn't help laughing, "I said that my sister is too lazy." What are you sitting here in a daze? She doesn't work as a female worker or reads or writes, what kind of lady does this look like? ”
Miss Su's face turned red all of a sudden.
Although she didn't grow up in the capital, she was also a solid local squire at home, so she naturally had her style as a young lady.
What kind of thing is this little aunt?
A Qinglou joker, finally got married to Su Qingjin Mansion as an aunt, and dared to point fingers at her, a serious young lady.
Miss Su said angrily: "I was embroidering before, but I was tired of embroidering, so I will rest for a while." ”
The little aunt didn't give up, "Really? Then you take it out and show it to me to see if you're lying. ”
These words annoyed Miss Su at once, and she said in a bad tone, "Why do I want to show you what I embroidered?" What if you don't embroider? You're not the lady of Su Mansion, why do you care about me? ”
The little aunt was angry and had no place to spill, but when she heard her words, she was satisfied, and suddenly stood up and pointed at Miss Su with her finger, "You are a foreign shabby, and you haven't even chosen a palace concubine, what kind of young lady are you in front of me?" This is the future young master of Su Mansion in my belly, you dare to be presumptuous to me? ”
Miss Su choked her, "Maybe she is a young lady, and she won't be able to choose a palace concubine in the future, but like me, what are you so proud of?" ”
These words hit the weakness of the little aunt.
She was afraid that she was not a son in her belly, and when she heard Miss Su's words, she suddenly stomped her feet angrily, "What? How dare you curse my son for being a young lady? You bastard! ”
After that, she took out the spicy laughing she used to make in Qinglou and slapped Miss Su in the face.
Miss Su stared at her incredulously, and tears fell down at once.
