Chapter 203: Li Yunsheng
The next day, after Shen Xiu sent Han Xiao out, she also let the girl start to prepare.
She was going to Tang's house to see Li Yingluo.
"Take out the jewelry box, pick up the jewelry I haven't worn and pick up the box, and it will be rich and festive." Shen Xiu ordered, "There is also cloth, I remember that a few days ago, the prince sent someone to send Shu brocade, and all of them were found." By the way, there are also gold and silver bills, and I ordered the foundry to rush out dozens of them. β
Yesterday, she had sent Yin'er to the Tang family, and a gift had been given.
If you go in person today, you will definitely not be empty-handed. But you have to be a little particular about what to send.
Forget about general things, and then send practical ones.
It didn't matter when I was in Qingyang, but after I arrived in the capital, Mrs. Zhuangyuan paid too much attention to it. Clothes, jewelry, tips, I don't know how many people are waiting to see the joke.
"Yes." Linlang responded, and hurriedly called the girl's mother-in-law to Zhang Luo together.
Shen Xiu has a lot of clothes and jewelry, and he can't fit in the cabinet in the main room, and many of them are piled up in the side room.
Six mothers-in-law, a dozen little girls and little eunuchs carried the boxes in the wing room together.
Yin'er and Linlang were busy and found the jewelry box first. The jewelry that has not been worn at all, and ten boxes, are all Shen Xiu's dowry, because there are too many dowries, they are too lazy to tidy up, so they are piled up in the cage.
"Take this hairpin phoenix, and these strings of pearls." Shen Xiu picked it up, "This bracelet is also good, and the condition is also good." β
Linlang was very clever, and hurriedly asked the little girl to bring the box, and put the jewelry that Shen Xiu had picked up in the box and arranged it.
"This, and this." Shen Xiu said.
There are too many patterns of jewelry, and in a piece of jewelry, you will soon feel dazzled.
I picked a few more conspicuous ones, and she also felt dazzled.
Yin'er said: "The side concubine wants to send Mrs. Tang, these estimates are enough." β
There are no bargains in Shen Xiu's dowry, and it is really enough to send these.
Li Yingluo is really good, she was born as a girl, but she has a noble person like a side concubine, and her husband is so capable, she was admitted to the top prize, which is a complete change of life.
"I sent her, she didn't have to." Shen Xiu said, "I just went to Beijing, and I didn't have anything to support the faΓ§ade, but I was afraid that she would be embarrassed." β
Yin'er didn't dare to say more.
Shen Xiu looked at the selected jewelry, and felt that it was almost there, so he said, "Seal the box." β
After the jewelry was selected, the Shu brocade was also picked out.
"Take two horses." Shen Xiu said, paused and said, "Pick up four more brocades and wrap them all." β
"Yes." The mother-in-law responded and began to pack up.
Shen Xiu thought for a while and said, "Call the head of the king to come and accompany me to the Tang family." β
Yesterday, Han Xiao suddenly mentioned the matter of Tang Shaowen's champion, she is going out to Tang's house today, maybe she is thinking too much, but taking Manager Wang with her seems to be above board.
Linlang was slightly stunned, looking very surprised, and said, "The side concubine wants to take the king out of the house?" β
Generally speaking, the chief eunuch like Mr. Wang does not go out on important occasions.
Now when you go to a good sister's house, it is more appropriate to bring a personal girl.
"Just call him." Shen Xiu said.
Linlang didn't dare to ask again, so she hurriedly called her mother-in-law to call someone.
"Qi Concubine Fang, the foundry room said that there are still twenty golden nudes left, let the side concubine make it first, if it is still bad, they will immediately hurry up and rebuild." The mother-in-law came in and returned, holding a tray with twenty golden nudes on it.
Shen Xiu looked at the silver nude, but he was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "It's hard for them, these are enough, don't build them again." By the way, send them the silver, and reward each person with five taels, which is my little heart. β
It is the Yanwang Mansion, there is a special casting room, and it will not be idle to build gold and silver naked children to play, all of which are used during the New Year's Festival, when you need to reward the next person and give the younger generation New Year's money.
And each master has a fixed number of distributions, and it is not possible to ask for them casually.
A gold coin was worth eight taels of silver, and she asked the foundry for twenty, that is, one hundred and sixty taels, and if she didn't give this money, she would have to put it on the foundry itself.
The subordinates can't be treated badly, and once they are badly treated, no one will do anything.
One hundred and sixty taels were given, and then a little bit of reward, and they were both satisfied.
"Sure enough, it's the side concubine, they took out all these private goods." Yin'er said with a smile.
Although it is said that the amount of gold and silver nude needed is certain, when people generally do errands, they will always do more in case they need it.
This is true of the kitchen, the Shangyi Bureau, and the foundry. If the faceless master asks for it, it must be a gray face.
Shen Xiu is a favored side concubine, and if she passed on a word, she would send it immediately.
"yes, that's why I have to reward them well." Shen Xiu said with a smile, and instructed Yin'er, "Wrap these up too." β
"Yes." Yin'er responded and began to pack boxes.
A box of jewelry, six pieces of material, and twenty gold nudes, these are at least a thousand two.
The gifts were ready, and Shen Xiu also began to dress and change. Although she was going out, because it was a close sister's house, Shen Xiu was dressed casually.
"Meet the concubine." Mr. Wang hurriedly entered the door and said.
He was also surprised that Shen Xiu would take him out.
Shen Xiu smiled and said, "Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite, I'll bother you to accompany me today." Yin'er and Linniang take good care of the house. β
"Yes." The three of them responded in unison.
Take a soft sedan car to Tiren Gate, and take a car from Tiren Gate to Tang Mansion. Shen Xiu was very attentive and specially called a car for Manager Wang to sit in.
Manager Wang is not too young, if he still walks with the car, it is not too hard, and it is too shameless. He worked hard just to get a good face, how could he not give him face.
A big car, a small car drove out of Yanwang's Mansion and headed for Tang Mansion.
Shen Xiu's mood was also very happy, happy for Li Yingluo, to be able to become the champion wife, this step is really too big. But as long as she walks well, Li Yingluo will completely change her life.
The brother's letter should have been sent, strike while the iron is hot, Li Yingluo will pack up, and she will leave within three days.
Letters are faster than people, and letters may arrive in the capital in a few days. But it will take at least half a month for people to arrive in the capital.
Half a month on the road, I want to tell my brother that this person sent to the capital must be reliable.
Just as Shen Xiu was thinking in his heart, the car stopped.
"Concubine Fang, the Tang Mansion has arrived." Said to the little girl in the car.
The footstool was lowered, the curtain was raised, and Shen Xiu got out of the car.
Different from the last time I came, at this time, the gate of the Tang Mansion can be described as a busy traffic, and it is a completely lively scene.
That's right, Qingyang has a champion, such a big thing, a little bit of dedication naturally knows.
The palace servants opened the way, and the general manager Wang called the door, and surrounded the people at the door, and immediately made a way for Shen Xiu to pass.
The door of the Tang Mansion soon opened, and the mother-in-law of the Tang Mansion recognized Shen Xiu, hurriedly saluted, and led her into the door.
When Shen Xiu entered, the door was immediately closed again.
"This is ......," Shen Xiu couldn't help but say when she saw this.
The mother-in-law said: "You don't know, since yesterday, this person has come in waves." The wife couldn't greet her, so she ordered the door to be closed. β
"I see." Shen Xiu nodded when she heard this, this is indeed Li Yingluo's character.
If you are impatient, you will close the door and thank you, but in the future, you will become the wife of the champion, and if you are impatient, you will have to socialize.
While talking, the mother-in-law led Shen Xiu into the second gate, and when she looked up, she saw Li Yingluo dressed in flowers and branches walking over.
Seeing Shen Xiu, he greeted him with a smile on his face and said, "Meet the side concubine, side concubine Wan'an." β
Shen Xiu was stunned on the spot, her mood was very weird, and she couldn't help but look Li Yingluo up and down.
It's the same face, and even the voice is the same, but she feels weird, as if something is wrong.
"Side Concubine, please come in." Li Yingluo said with a smile that she was going to hold Shen Xiu's hand.
Shen Xiu shook her off, looked at her face and said, "I heard Yingluo say that she has a twin sister. β
Li Yunsheng, a mother and a compatriot, but a younger sister who is more favored by her parents.
When Li Yingluo worked hard to make money in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, Li Yunshang was a young lady in front of her parents.
"Uh, I ......" Li Yunshang was stunned on the spot, looking at Shen Xiu a little embarrassed.
She is exactly the same as Li Yingluo, and Shen Xiu has never seen her, so how can she recognize her.
"Concubine Fang really has good eyes, this is Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu's sister." The mother-in-law said with a smile.
I didn't see this sister come over before, but now that my brother-in-law has won the champion, this is diligent.
Li Yingluo doesn't like this sister very much, but when she comes, she won't drive her away.
"Sure enough." Shen Xiu said with a smile and said to Li Yunsheng: "I heard Yingluo mention you, and it was exactly the same." β
But apart from the appearance and voice, there is really nothing like it.
This is also related to the living environment since childhood, although Li Yingluo is a girl, she is a big girl in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and she has high requirements for manners.
Although Li Yunshang is a young lady, in the environment of the Li family, she can not work, but she will definitely not ask her grandmother to teach, let alone read and write.
"Since I am exactly the same as my sister, how did the side concubine recognize me." Li Yunshang asked with a smile, "Even my parents can't tell the difference." β
Shen Xiu smiled and said nothing, this can't tell the difference, it may be that her parents are really not familiar with Li Yingluo.
Manager Wang saw that Shen Xiu didn't want to entertain Li Yunsheng, so he said, "Isn't Mrs. Tang at home, why don't you come to greet the concubine." β
"My sister is at home, but she's sick, so it's really inconvenient to greet her." Li Yunshang said with a smile, and the flattering tone was very obvious.
Shen Xiu was slightly surprised and said, "How could you suddenly get sick?" β
Yin'er only came to see Li Yingluo yesterday, and if she was sick, Yin'er would definitely say it. When she came over today, she would naturally bring the doctor.
The mother-in-law said: "It's not a serious illness, it's just that when I get up in the morning, I feel a little dizzy." Now I am resting in the house, there are few people in the house, and I don't know that the side concubine is coming. β
"I'll go see her." Shen Xiu said, and instructed Mr. Wang: "Send someone to Xiao's house and ask Master Xiao to come over to diagnose Mrs. Tang." β
As he spoke, Shen Xiu walked quickly to the main room.
