Chapter 11: Marriage Gifts?

The maid Zhuzhu ran back in a panic and accidentally bumped into the mandarin duck holding the fabric.

"I'm going to die, I'm afraid that my eyes are used to make bead decorations!" The mandarin duck looked at the cloth in his hand scattered all over the ground, and the red silk brocade was stained with Saturn, afraid that Qing Xihuan was going to take his head.

"Sister Mandarin Duck, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, the eldest lady's ginseng soup is still boiling on the stove, and it will be old at night. Zhuzhu bowed her head to apologize, and deliberately mentioned that the eldest lady suppressed the mandarin ducks.

"Of course the old woman drinks the old, and when she is old, she doesn't understand how to nourish it? But if our second lady's wedding dress is stained with soil, it will be unlucky, are you inferior when you ask the second lady to marry the fifth highness!"

"Sister Mandarin Duck, the second lady is sinking into the fish and falling geese, she looks good at anything, and you see that even the land grandfather has to give a gift to our second miss first, doesn't it mean that our second miss is blessed?" Zhuzhu said to the mandarin duck flatteringly with a brocade cloth.

"Well, the mouth is really clever, okay, you go quickly, it's just that next time you have to have eyes. The mandarin duck rolled her eyes and said.

"Yes, Sister Mandarin Duck's beauty is really the most beautiful. Zhuzhu praised the mandarin duck and quickly got up and left.

"What's the use of having a clever mouth, it's not a bad heart, I didn't bully our second miss back then!"

Zhuzhu ran all the way to the door of the eldest lady's room, and said anxiously to the maid Cuicui, "Quick, report to the eldest lady, say that Zhuzhu has something important to see, the first important thing!"

"Don't worry, I'll pass it on!" Cuicui hurriedly walked towards the eldest lady's room with broken steps.

"What's the matter?" The eldest lady was eating melon seeds, and Qing Wanru on the side was sitting upright on the stool embroidering her purse, looking at the Yunjin and Tianjin's materials picked up by the maid next to her, how to look at how she was not satisfied.

"Madam, Zhuzhu said that there is a first matter, I must see you. Cuicui looked down and said.

"The first priority? Now the first thing in the Qing Mansion is nothing more than to find the right material to make a wedding dress, if we want to be the crown princess, how can we be vague about the dowry etiquette, so that people don't look down on our Qing Mansion, and when they enter the door in the future, don't call the imperial concubine, the uncles and sisters-in-law don't look down on it. The eldest lady knocked on the melon seeds, squinted her eyes and said unhurriedly.

Qing Wan didn't speak, her head bowed and her face was shy.

"Yes, I went and turned her down. Cuicui bowed her head and got up to leave.

"Wait......" Qing Wanruo suddenly raised her hand and whispered softly to Cuicui, "Since she said something important, then you might as well listen to what she said." ”

Cuicui was allowed to summon Zhuzhu in.

"Big lady, big lady, big lady! Oh no!" Zhu Zhu bowed her head and knelt on the ground and shouted.

"What's wrong, does this dead girl want to be slapped?" The eldest lady angrily threw all the melon seeds in her palm back on the plate.

"No, no, eldest lady, the slave maid just overheard the conversation between the master and the king of Qi in the backyard...... Say, say that the king of Qi is ......"

"Say it quickly, I'm in a hurry!" the eldest lady stomped her foot and cut her teeth in a hurry.

"Speaking of the King of Qi, he was named the King of Pingdong, but he was not named ...... The prince ...... "Zhuzhu lowered her head and lowered her voice, as low as a mosquito.

"Bastard, what nonsense are you talking about!" the eldest lady got up and slapped Zhuzhu in the face. scolded viciously.

"Madam, it's true, the slave maid heard it with her own ears, and the slave didn't dare to lie!" Zhu Zhu covered half of her face and sobbed in a low voice.

Qing seemed to have lost his soul, and the purse embroidered in his hand also slipped down the brocade skirt and fell under his feet, his eyes were blank.

"Bastard, where did you hear the nonsense, you should tell me clearly! Don't think about eating if you can't tell me!"

"Yes, ma'am, I heard movement in the backyard at that time, and I listened quietly......"

Qing Xihuan stood up, and Dong Chufan's eyes never left Qing Xihuan's face.

"But His Royal Highness said that Huan'er knew how to shoot arrows...... But I recognized the wrong person. Qingyuan lowered his head and asked humbly.

"It's not wrong, I will never admit that I am wrong with these eyes, I don't believe that I can call Xi Huan...... Miss archery with everyone to see. "Dong Chufan is sure that the little guard just now is Qing Xihuan. There will be no mistake.

"But Sister Xi Huan has always been delicate, likes to dance and write, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I have never seen Sister Xi Huan know how to shoot arrows. Dong Chuchen couldn't help but say more.

Qing Xihuan was annoyed when he heard Dong Chuchen's voice, and he wanted to shoot an arrow straight through his heart and tell him to shut up, but he had to endure it and couldn't do it.

"What King Pingdong said is that I, a little woman, can't shoot arrows, but it's just a mistake. Qing Xi bowed happily, unwilling to look at Dong Chuchen's face.

"How come?" Dong Chu panicked, and played a childish temper at Qing Xihuan, "Miss Xihuan obviously knows how to shoot arrows, I saw it with my own eyes, how can it be fake?"

Qing Xi Huan, it doesn't matter if he smiles like this, but Dong Chufan and Dong Chuchen all fall into a smile.

"The little woman really doesn't understand, I hope that His Royal Highness will not laugh. Qing Xihuan explained.

Seeing this, Qing Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and explained, "Your Royal Highness is really wrong, the little girl can't even tell what the bow and arrow look like except for poetry, painting, piano and chess." How can you shoot an arrow. ”

Dong Chufan suddenly pointed to the bow on Qing Xihuan's back and asked, "Then how do you explain this?

Qing Xihuan remembered that he was in a hurry to leave, and carried his beloved arrow behind him, which stumped Qing Xihuan. I pondered for a long time and didn't know how to answer.

Suddenly, Dong Chuchen snatched the bow and arrow. Hold it in your hand and look closely. I saw a hint of familiarity.

The craftsmanship of this bow is very similar to Shi Jinyu's technique......

"This bow is a marriage gift that Sister Xi Huan is going to give me, does the fifth brother still want to win the love?" Dong Chuchen held the bow, his heart throbbed for a while, if it was really made by Shi Jinyu himself, how good would it be.

"Really?" Dong Chufan looked at Qing Xihuan.

Qing Xihuan subconsciously went to grab the bow, but was lifted high by Dong Chuchen, and he couldn't reach Dong Chuchen's shoulder when he jumped up, so he just let him rogue put the bow around his shoulder and carry it on his back, joking, "What, Sister Xi Huan is reluctant? Sister Xi Huan doesn't like bows and arrows? Forget?" Dong Chuchen kept reminding Qing Xihuan not to forget that he was relieving her. Qing Xihuan had no choice but to compromise.

“...... yes, blessings...... King Pingdong. Qing Xihuan's eyes still couldn't let go of his ruthlessness, after all, the enemy of life and death, the enemy of destroying the country, how to let go! Just wait for that day to shoot him with his own hands. To comfort the deceased soldiers of the Eastern Kingdom.

Dong Chuchen looked at Qing Xihuan's face with relish. Carry the bow behind your back. said to Dong Chufan, "The fifth brother can see the talent and demeanor of Xi Huan's sister, you can compare poetry, calligraphy and painting with her, Xi Huan's sister's literary brilliance can be called the first in the world." ”

I can't call my calligraphy and painting to poetry? I won't! Qing Xihuan made a difficulty, if you can still do a sentence and a half on the poem, but calligraphy and painting, it is really tricky, I hope that I have a heart with the East Chufan, don't call myself calligraphy and painting.

"Well~ Then calligraphy and painting!I like calligraphy and painting the most~" Dong Chufan looked at Qing Xihuan and made a gesture of invitation to Qing Xihuan, "Miss Xihuan...... Study please~"

Damn! It's really calligraphy and painting, and it really has nothing to do with Dong Chufan.

Qing Xihuan had no choice but to pretend to agree calmly, and turned around to look at Dong Chuchen with murderous eyes.

"Then I won't bother much, I brought plum cakes and went to meet Wanruo. Dong Chuchen said goodbye to Qingyuan and walked towards the backyard.

Qing Xihuan reluctantly watched the bow he had just made being taken away by Dong Chuchen, hating itchy, but helpless, and followed Dong Chufan to the study.
