"Qiao'er, you're back!" Tang You was tidying up the bed in the bedroom, when he saw Yuxiu quickly running in from outside, and took her hand with a happy face, "I just heard Aunt Ruzhen tell everyone in the embroidery room that you are back, I can't believe it, I didn't expect you to really come back, it's really good!" ”

Tang You also happily held her hand, "Yes, I'm back again." ”

Yuxiu looked her up and down a few times, and asked with concern, "Qiao'er, how have you lost weight after not seeing you for a few days?" But what happened? ”

"It's okay, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Tang You said with a smile.

"It's okay if you're alright." Yuxiu smiled slightly, pulled Tang You to sit down, and asked again, "By the way, how did you come back this time?" Why did Aunt Ruzhen suddenly let you come back again? ”

"It was Uncle Su who asked me to come back."

Yuxiu was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Su?" Why would he agree to let you come back? ”

"Because I promised him one condition."

"On what terms?"

Tang You saw Yuxiu's anxious look, so he smiled and said, "I'll tell you, you are not allowed to tell others." ”

Yuxiu hurriedly said categorically, "Don't worry, I will never tell others, Qiao'er, don't you still believe me?" ”

Tang You looked around for a moment to make sure that there was no one else, so he leaned into Yuxiu's ear and said softly, "I promised Uncle Su to help him win the place of palace embroidery this year." ”

"What?" Yuxiu looked at Tang You in disbelief when she heard this, "Qiao'er, how dare you agree to such conditions?" This is no child's play. ”

"Don't worry, I'm naturally fully prepared." Tang You comforted her.

Seeing her look like this, Yuxiu said, "Then how do you win?" ”

Tang You said mysteriously, "I can't tell you this for the time being, but you will know when the time comes." ”

Yuxiu didn't ask any questions when she heard this, she looked at Tang You and said, "Qiao'er, I also think you can do it." ”

"Really? Do you think so too? ”

"Yes, in my eyes you have always been the best, unlike all of us, I believe in you, you say you can do it, you will definitely be able to do it."

Tang You smiled slightly when he heard this, "Thank you Yuxiu." ”

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for believing in me, with your words, I am more confident."

"Silly girl, what is there to thank for. Let's clean up and go to dinner together. After Yuxiu finished speaking, she began to help Tang You make up the bed together, and the two laughed again.

"Qiao'er, if you develop in the future, don't you forget me?"

"Of course, I will take you to eat and drink spicy food in the future!"

"Okay, that's what you said, I've made a note of it!"

"Huh? Look at what you're saying, do I look like one of those ungrateful people? ”

"That's not necessarily, maybe the money will become bad in the future!"

"I think you're itchy on the skin!"

"Ahh I don't dare, I can't say it if I don't say it! ”

"It's getting late!"

"Ahh Good sister, you can spare me! ”

Su Mansion these days are full of lights, the courtyard is like a city, because the palace concubine Niangniang went back to visit relatives, and coincided with the 60th birthday of the old lady of the Su family, the concubine Niangniang got the emperor's special permission, can live in Su Mansion for two days, come to Su Mansion to Su Old Mrs. Su birthday gifts The squire officials are in an endless stream, like a carp crossing the river.

At the family banquet in the evening, after everyone had eaten, Mrs. Su and Su Jingxian gossiped about homely things, accompanied by Su Yun and Su Yu.

Old Madam Su looked at Su Jingxian lovingly, and said with concern, "I haven't seen you for a while, Concubine Xian seems to have lost some weight, but she doesn't eat well in the palace?" ”

Su Jingxian said with a smile when she heard this, "Every time my mother sees me, she has to say these things, where have I lost weight, a few days ago, the emperor said that I have gained a lot of weight recently!" "Su Jingxian is a person with a hearty personality, although she has been in the palace for many years, her temperament has not changed, she is not as cautious as other women in the deep palace, and it is precisely because of her straightforward and resolute temperament that she has always been favored by the emperor.

"What Concubine Xian Niangniang said is that I look plump, and besides, the dishes made by the imperial kitchen in the palace dining room are naturally the best, how can it make Niangniang hungry and lose weight." Su Yu said with a smile on the side.

Su Jingxian looked at Su Yu with a smile when she heard this, "I think the third brother has really lost a lot of weight, but what's on his mind?" ”

When Mrs. Su heard this, she said, "He, he has known to make me angry all day long, you are back, but you have to talk about him well, he has listened to you since he was a child." ”

"Oh? What is it? Su Jingxian asked with some curiosity.

"Today is a happy day, so let's not talk about those things that are not fun. Finish. Su Yu took a glass of wine and said with a smile.

When Su Jingxian heard this, she didn't ask any more questions, but said to Mrs. Su with a smile, "I think my mother should marry him a daughter-in-law as soon as possible, so that he can take care of himself." ”

"My eldest brother hasn't married a wife yet, so I'm in a hurry."

Su Yun, who had not spoken beside him, glanced at Su Yu lightly when he heard this, and Su Yu hurriedly pretended not to know and looked away.

When Mrs. Su heard this, she looked at Su Yu and said, "Your eldest brother is much more worry-free than you, I have invited Mrs. Wang to come and see the characters a few days ago, and when the matter of palace embroidery is over, I will send Mrs. Wang to propose marriage." ”

"Mother has already taken care of the second brother's family? Which girl is it? ”

"It's the second daughter of Zhao Shangshu's family, Zhao Yunxiang, Wang Matchmaker has already calculated, and it is very compatible with your second brother."

Su Jingxian was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then looked at Su Yun and asked, "Second brother, do you also agree to this family business?" ”

Su Yun looked at Su Jingxian and said lightly, "Everything is up to my mother." ”

Old Madam Su nodded with satisfaction when she heard this, and said to Su Jingxian, "Yunxi has been dead for so many years, Sister Yue is also older, Yunxiang is Yunxi's own sister, marry her, don't worry that she will treat Sister Yue harshly." ”

Su Jingxian smiled when she heard this, "What my mother said is also reasonable, by the way, I remember that when my second brother married Yunxi, I also saw Yun Xiang, and she was still a little girl with a bun at that time, but I didn't expect that after so many years, she has also grown up, and now she should be sixteen or seventeen years old, right?" ”

"I happened to turn sixteen this year, and that girl is very smart, well-behaved and sensible." Old Madam Su said with a smile.

"Mother's vision is naturally good." Su Jingxian looked at Su Yun with a smile, and said, "It's good if the second brother likes it." ”

Su Yun didn't say anything when he heard this, just picked up the wine glass on the table and drank a glass of wine slowly, looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

After the dinner, Su Yun and Su Yu left, Su Jingxian went to Mrs. Su's Fu'an Hall seat, the mother and daughter gossiped, the two talked about Su Yu, and then Su Jingxian asked, "Mother, I see that the third brother is a little embarrassed today, and he has lost a lot of weight, but what happened?" ”

Old Madam Su sighed when she heard this, and said, "Hey, Xian'er, you don't know, Yu'er didn't know what kind of trick she committed a few days ago, and she was clamoring to marry a civilian woman as her wife!" The whole house was turned upside down. ”

"Is that so?" Su Jingxian asked with a look of surprise, "Third brother, she has always been nostalgic for flowers, why did she suddenly turn back?" ”

"At first, I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect him to beg me for that woman, as long as I could promise to let him marry that woman into the door, he would accept his heart from then on, and help Yun'er manage the family business wholeheartedly, and never go out to spend time drinking again."

"This is a good thing, no matter what your mother says about him over the years, how to discipline him, he only cares about having fun, and now he takes the initiative to put forward the conditions, he will be able to do it, besides, he is not too young, it's time to marry a wife and have children, although the woman's identity is a little worse, but if you can really make the second brother control his heart, it doesn't hurt to marry home and be a wife, I think you might as well take advantage of the situation to agree, not only to help him marry a wife, but also to establish a business, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone."

When Mrs. Su heard this, she sighed again, "Xian'er, I thought the same way, since Yu'er really likes it, even if the identity is a little worse, it doesn't hurt to marry that woman according to him, but what I didn't expect is that the woman is a greedy and vain person, I sent Mama Qiu to test her, and she asked for five thousand taels of gold when she opened her mouth." How could such a woman let her marry into the Su family. ”

"Is that woman really so greedy for money? How could the second brother fall in love with such a woman? ”

The old woman Su said disdainfully when she heard this, "Not only is it greedy for money, it is simply shameless, that woman used to be a maid in the Meng family, and she also climbed into Meng Haoxuan's bed, and was later driven out." ”

"What? Such a woman categorically cannot enter the gate of the Su family! ”

Fortunately, Yu'er also discovered her true face, and now she won't mention that incident. I think I was heartbroken by that woman, and she has lost a lot of weight recently. ”

"Who is that woman? I'd like to see what she looks like. Su Jingxian asked.

"That woman's name is Shen Qiao, and she is the embroiderer who embroidered the orchid embroidery clothes for you."

………… Dividing line ......

Following.

"Shen Qiao, you come out with me." Tang You was embroidering in the embroidery room when he saw Aunt Ruzhen coming over.

Tang You followed Aunt Ruzhen out of the embroidery room and came to a carriage, Aunt Ruzhen said to Tang You, "Get in the carriage!" ”

"Aunt Ruzhen, where is this going for me?" Tang asked puzzled.

Aunt Ruzhen glanced at her a little impatiently and said, "This is the carriage of Sufu, you just go up, where are you talking so much!" ”

When Tang You heard this, he got into the carriage. When the carriage arrived at Su Mansion, Tang You opened the door and saw a family member standing at the door, and that family Ding happened to be Zhou Hu.

"Qiao'er, why are you?" Zhou Hu said happily.

Tang You greeted Zhou Hu, and followed Zhou Hu into Su Mansion, the two walked on the corridor, Tang You opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Hu, where are you taking me?" ”

Zhou Hu walked to the side and said, "I heard from the housekeeper that I asked me to take you to see Concubine Xian." ”

Tang You was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked, "Why did you take me to see Concubine Xian?" ”

"I don't know about this, I'm just taking you there on the orders of the housekeeper."

Tang You didn't speak anymore when he heard this, and when Zhou Hu saw this, he comforted again, "You don't need to worry, I heard that Concubine Xian Niangniang has a good temper and a good heart, so she must not embarrass you." ”

Tang You nodded when he heard the words and thanked him. Zhou Hu took Tang You to the garden, and when he came to the pavilion on the rockery, he saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes sitting in the pavilion, and two maids were waiting next to him.

"See Concubine Xian Niangniang." Zhou Hu took Tang You forward and saluted, "This is Shen Qiao." ”

"Well, get up." Su Jingxian slowly looked at the woman beside Suifeng, her appearance was beautiful and moving, her posture was neither humble nor arrogant, there was an indifferent atmosphere between her eyebrows and eyes, she was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she had a temperament that did not match her age, Su Jingxian hesitated a little, the woman in front of her was really the kind of person her mother said? Or is she disguised so well that she can't see it herself?

"You are the embroiderer who embroidered the orchid embroidered dress for the main palace?" Su Jingxian asked.

"Yes, sis." Tang You raised his eyes to her and replied.

"That embroidered dress is very fond of this palace, whatever reward you want, this palace can reward you."
