Hua Zhao was a little teasing: "You have been looking forward to this family business for a long time?" ”

"Yes...... Oh, yes. "This Qian'er is not a hidden character, although she is ashamed, she is also willing to talk about the past.

"The other party is a Xiucai from the same village as the slave maid, how old is the slave maid, the person is tall and white, and the temperament is very good-looking...... Although the slave maid didn't have much contact with him, he was very gentle these times...... "Qian'er's eyes softened a little.

"It seems that it is the person you have remembered for many years." Hanazhao smiled.

Qian'er was really embarrassed, and lowered her head: "It's a joke to tell the county lord, the slaves and maids are all little women who are difficult to get into the elegant hall......"

"It's okay, it's not about whether you can get on the hall or not, and you're at the age of talking about marriage." She is as good as a runner.

It stands to reason that Hua Zhao will not ask too much about this kind of private affairs of others, especially for a little maid who can almost be called a stranger to her.

It's just that she thinks in her heart that this is the little maid next to the Queen Mother, if they were quiet along the way, it would be fine, and now that the conversation has started, if she doesn't continue, I'm afraid that something will be wrong.

Hua Zhao simply asked: "I don't know how my husband's family and your family negotiated the marriage?" How much is the bride price? ”

"Everything else is the same, just like the eight characters, the next hiring, etc., and the slaves and maids will prepare for the wedding after they go back. But his family was not wealthy, and the bride price was less. ”

"Less bride price?" A trace of doubt rose in Hua Zhao's heart.

"Yes, in the house where the slave and maid come, the bride price is fixed, whether it is poor or rich. But the slave husband's family really spent too much money for him to study...... But it's not a big deal. ”

Hua Zhao thought to herself, this bride price is a fixed amount for both poor and rich families, why is it less for no reason when she comes here? The amount of this bride price can be said to be a symbol of the importance that the husband's family attaches to women in feudal society. No matter how poor this scholar's family is, he won't even be able to do enough things on face, right?

This indirectly reflects the husband's family's lack of attention to Qian'er.

This Qian'er has also admired the scholar for a long time, so she persuaded her family not to care too much about the bride price.

She couldn't help but express her thoughts in her heart and wake up Qian'er.

Qian'er's face was a little embarrassed when she heard this: "It's not that the in-laws don't pay much attention to the slaves and maids, it's just that the in-laws are already an old girl in the slaves, and they want the slaves and maids to marry quickly, and the bride price is prepared in a hurry, so it's ......."

Look, this has already put himself into her husband's family from the bottom of her heart, and she has defended her husband's family.

Hearing this, Hua Zhao was even more vigilant in her heart, the family's eagerness to ask her to marry was really suspicious, and she reminded her again out of kindness.

"Miss Qian'er, after all, you don't get along much with your husband's family, and you don't know people but you don't know your heart! It is better to be cautious about lifelong events, and never worry that you are an old girl and leave home in a hurry. This can easily lead to countless troubles and pain for the rest of your life. ”

Her tone was even a little secretive.

Qian'er nodded, her expression was a little complicated, and she didn't know if she had listened or not.

Soon the two arrived at Huaqing Palace.

Xu Jingwan happened to pack up and prepare to go out of the palace to visit the queen, and Hua Zhao simply traveled with her.

That Qian'er walked very obediently in the rear, far away from Hua Zhao, thinking that she was indulging in thinking about Hua Zhao's words.

"Princess, when are you going to make a request to the emperor?"

Xu Jingwan glanced at Hua Zhao and understood that she was reminding herself to deal with this matter as soon as possible.

"I'll talk about it when the right time comes these two days."

"Also, if you bring it up too deliberately, it will make him suspicious." Hua Zhao nodded.

"Thanks to the princess for cooperating with the acting, but it also caused the princess's face to be scratched, and it hurts to look at it." Hua Zhao stroked Xu Jingwan's scabbed scar from a distance with his fingers.

The princess's white and delicate face was covered with scars, like holes in delicate flowers, which was pitiful.

Xu Jingwan shook her head: "No, I have to thank the county lord and Luo Gongzi for giving me advice." Otherwise, I'm afraid that this palace will now be in the carriage of the relatives! ”

This sentence enlivened the atmosphere, Hua Zhao and Xu Jingwan talked and laughed all the way, and soon arrived at the queen's bedroom.

As soon as he stepped inside, Hua Zhao smelled a strong and even pungent smell, which seemed to be the smell of boiling some kind of Chinese medicine.

Following the source of the smell, I walked to the small kitchen and saw a room full of busy little maids.

Almost every little maid had a casserole in front of them, and their expressions were very serious and nervous, all staring at the liquid medicine in the pot in front of them.

Needless to say, this is obviously everyone is busy making medicinal soup for the queen, and it seems that the queen's situation has not completely improved.

It's just that the arrival of the two seems to be a heretical incursion, and the expressions of those little maids are becoming more and more nervous, and Hua Zhao even captures the wary looks on the faces of some little maids.

Why is that?

Withdrawing from the kitchen, Xu Jingwan couldn't help but sigh: "It's terrible, it's all over the place with a smell of medicine!" Just smelling it makes people dizzy! It would be so uncomfortable to drink it all. ”

"Yes, such a dose of medicine is really distressing for those who hear it."

What Hua Zhao thought in his heart was that the queen mother deserved to be the queen mother, and the scale of being able to sit in such a position was different from others.

But it doesn't hurt to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, after all, she is sick. But who are these little maids so vigilant to guard against?

The eldest lady in the queen's palace didn't know what to do, so she hurriedly ran to meet the two.

She clearly saw that the two of them came out of the direction of the small kitchen, her eyes flickered at first, and then immediately her face was full of smiles: "Princess, county lord, the old slave is troubled, it's too late, I hope the two of you don't blame." ”

Hua Zhao obviously didn't miss the eyes of the eldest grandmother, she is an old and sleek character, such an emotional revelation is difficult for others to detect, but Hua Zhao will not let go of such details.

She was almost sure what she was thinking.

Looks like there's something shady about this little kitchen! Otherwise, how could the people in this palace be so nervous one by one.

A glint flashed in Hua Zhao's eyes.

Xu Jingwan smiled: "It's okay, this is not a slack, after all, this trip to the palace and the county is to visit the queen's mother, not to drink tea and play, so Mama doesn't have to blame herself too much." ”

It was also given to her a step down.

"Yes, the princess is generous, and the county lord is generous." The old slave's face was full of smiles, and the wrinkles were piled up in a heap, which was quite flattering.
