Chapter 43: Inquire about the Mei family
"Peach, take the robe off and open the window."
After a long time, the room was lit up again, and Yun Chuxue sat at the desk with her head propped up and fell into deep thought.
The birthday gift given to her by her mother is a picture, like... The layout of the city?
Could it be that you want to give her a city?
It seems that she is thinking too much......
"Miss, it's cold to sit here, let's sit by the brazier."
Looking at Yun Chuxue's somewhat frozen red hands, Tao'er reminded in a whisper, she knew that the girl was thinking about something, and she didn't know what was written on the silk.
Yun Chuxue carefully put away the silk and got up and walked to the brazier, maybe she didn't see it clearly, wait until the evening to take a good look.
Whatever it was, the most important thing was that she felt her mother's heart.
"Peach, things are put away, you now let Chang Bo take you to the Xicheng treasury to receive the Burmese silk, and bring the cedar picture with you to the Splendid Workshop, you tell the Splendid Workshop that you must embroider it well, and the Burmese Silk does not have to be saved, if it is not enough, just say, and... Inquire about cloud embroidery from the side. ”
“… Okay, slave and maid will go. ”
The eldest girl likes cedar the most, and the cedar picture is painted by the eldest girl, and the young lady wants to embroider it to give to the eldest girl, as for the silk silk, the girl doesn't say that she doesn't ask.
Watching Tao'er leave, Yun Chuxue fell into contemplation again, whether it was the mysterious man who poisoned her, or... Cloud embroidery... Contact with Fairview seems to be necessary.
"Big girl, Miss Six has been locked in the house since she came back from Yunfu and has not come out, and Tao'er has also sent out, no, it will be fine, right?"
Mother Li accompanied Yun Yinling to stand under the eaves of Yun Chuxue's house and said with a worried face.
Yun Yinling looked at the closed door and sighed: "The six girls have never expected from them, so they won't be disappointed, it's just that people can be ruthless, today she suddenly asked her mother... In the end, he is still a child, and he also hopes that someone will love him. ”
"Fortunately, Miss Six has a big girl who hurts!"
"Mother Li, you go and help inquire about her mother's affairs, after all, it is her mother, give birth to her, it is human nature for her to want to know about her mother's affairs."
"Yes, the slave maid will go in a while, if it weren't for Mei Shijiu's ninth son who came forward this time and happened to relieve Miss Liu, it would be Miss Six who said that she had escaped into Buddhism, and the old lady would not let Miss Six out of the house so easily, but in this way, although Miss Six escaped a catastrophe, it would be difficult for her to say that she would be close in the future."
Even if it's vulgar, it's hard to get married, Li's mother shook her head as she spoke.
Yun Yinling showed a little helplessness, and finally smiled and said: "This girl, I didn't think about getting married at all, she... I don't have this mind at all, maybe it's still young, it's just that, there's no need to worry about it, the six girls are different from ordinary women, she wants to live freely, if she can get her wish, she has no regrets, you go and get busy, I'll go see what the six girls are doing in the house, don't be bored. ”
Mother Li knew that the master asked her to inquire about the sixth lady's mother, so she nodded and turned around and left.
Yun Yinling had just walked to the door of Yun Chuxue's house, just as Yun Chuxue opened the door and was about to come out.
"Auntie?"
"Mother Li said that you locked yourself in the house for a long time, Tao'er went out again, and there was a charcoal fire burning in the house, and my aunt didn't worry about coming over to take a look."
Yun Chuxue hurriedly took Yun Yinling's hand, "I was about to go to find my aunt, it's cold outside, aunt come in." ”
Seeing that it was fine, it seemed that they were really worried, Yun Yinling was instantly relieved, and raised her feet and entered the room.
"Something to do with your aunt?"
"It's nothing, just ask my aunt about the Mei Mansion."
My aunt knows a little bit about the situation of the big families in the capital.
"Mei Mansion? What to inquire? It won't be asking... That Nine Princes, right? Yun Yinling couldn't help but look at Yun Chuxue, this girl wouldn't be... Spring heart sprouts, right?
Thinking like this, it's normal to be true, the girl is pregnant, not to mention the ninth prince who all the women in the capital want to marry, and they helped her today.
As soon as she saw Yun Yinling's expression, Yun Chuxue knew that she had misunderstood.
"Auntie thinks too much, I'm just curious, there are a lot of sons in the Mei family, why is Mei Shijiu particularly valued in the Mei family?"
Just curious? This girl rarely chats about other people's affairs, Yun Yinling smiled and chatted with Yun Chuxue, "The Mei family has a total of seven sons in law, three concubines, Mei Shijiu ranks third in the family, is from the big house, has been talented and talented since childhood, was accepted as a disciple by Suo and the old gentleman at the age of six, and won the championship in one fell swoop when the palace hunting competition was ten years old from many children of the family, which can be described as a civil and military all-rounder, but then he did not participate in the hunting ......"
"No wonder the Mei family values it, listening to my aunt say this, the Mei family has a total of ten sons... What are they called? ”
I wanted to ask directly what the name of the fourth son was, but I felt a little abrupt.
Really didn't you inquire about Mei Shijiu? Yun Yinling was inevitably a little confused in her heart.
"This aunt can't say it all, I only know that the sons of the Mei family are all Shi Zi generations, and their names all have a Shi character, speaking of the Mei family... It should have been quite lively recently, do you remember Mei Fangfei, the second lady of the Mei family? ”
Yun Chuxue nodded, she had seen her in the Mei Mansion three years ago, and she still remembered the elegance of her gestures when she performed the tea ceremony.
"Before the New Year's Festival, she will marry into the Suwang Mansion."
"Suwangfu?" King Su seems to have just been crowned the king's mansion.
She really hadn't paid much attention to the affairs of these nobles before, that is, she had paid a little attention to business in the past three years.
"Well, I heard that it was King Su's mother, Concubine Duangui, who came to the door to ask for marriage, and the Mei family didn't seem to nod at first, but I don't know why it became again, and the saint personally gave the marriage, and this big wedding must be very grand and lively."
However, the affairs of these nobles have nothing to do with them, so it is better not to talk about them.
Yun Chuxue didn't pay much attention to it, she just wanted to inquire about the 'fourth master' in the mouth of the owner of Jinxiufang, whether it could be the fourth son of the Mei family.
Forget it, my aunt is sensitive, so if she asks a few more words, she will think more, and she will go outside to inquire.
"The Mei family marries a daughter, the royal marry, that's really a big bustle, by the way, auntie, let's leave in a hurry, don't bring many things, just add what you lack, don't feel sorry for the silver, I will earn, I will tell Uncle Chang to drag Uncle Li to help take care of the house in the village, and the things don't have to be moved, and when we want to live, we can go and live for a few days."
When the Burmese silk business made money, she bought a few acres of land next to it and simply built a small village.
It doesn't need to be too big, there are flowers and grasses, fields and houses, fruit trees and fish ponds, and my aunt will be good for the elderly in the future, although this capital is prosperous, but her aunt likes the quiet years in the village.
Yun Yinling looked at Yun Chuxue, who was smiling in front of her, and felt distressed again, she had to worry about everything for herself since she was a child, and now she still has to think about her.
"Sixth girl, you tell me honestly, did you hire Uncle Chang?"
“… Well, I know that I can't hide it from my aunt, aunt, I'm doing business outside, sometimes it's inconvenient for Tao'er, and Uncle Chang has already responded, and their family will come to us to help in the future, although this house is not big, but Guang Tao'er and Li's mother can't be busy. ”
Yun Yinling pulled Yun Chuxue and stroked her hair, "Auntie knows that you are sensible and assertive, you can make your own decisions about these things, as for the silver, my aunt also saved a little in the early years, although it is not much, but it is enough for my aunt to support her for the elderly, you don't have to worry about your aunt, just take care of yourself, six girls, do what you want, aunt has figured it out, as long as you live freely." ”
"Auntie, you treat me the best in this world, Chu Xue can't ignore you even if she doesn't care about herself."
Yun Yinling looked at Yun Chuxue, who had a serious face, and couldn't help but say, "Silly girl." ”
Such a good child, but the Yun family doesn't cherish it! How far can such a Yun family be?
